Konoha I am Uchiha

"Hiruzhan, I hope you can explain what this inexplicable incident is all about!"

In the solemn conference room in the capital of the Kingdom of Fire. .

Sitting on one side were the Sandai and three advisors, as well as Nara Shikaku, who was famous for his resourcefulness in Konoha Village.

Sitting on the other side were high-ranking temple officials from the Kingdom of Fire.

The daimyo sat at the head of the table with a calm expression, and no one could see his attitude.

After returning to bed, Xiaochun took the lead in attacking.

In an emergency, they will cooperate with the Hokage unconditionally. But now that everything has calmed down, they will not keep things vague.

It's better to be questioned by yourself and others than to dissatisfy the daimyo!

Show your attitude. This is the situation that the two consultant elders want to show.

Unlike Koharu and Mito Kaden who were sleeping next to each other, Danzo was sitting aside and remained silent.

In this incident, all the ninjas at the root came out in force (at least that's what Danzo claimed) and helped many civilians. Although the common people still couldn't tell the difference between ANBU and root ninjas, the words "under the orders of Elder Danzo" uttered by the ninja who saved them were clearly heard.

They thought that Danzo would take this opportunity to criticize the Third Generation, but they didn't expect that he would miss such an opportunity.

"Ahem, daimyo-sama." The third generation looked very unhappy.

Although he performed brilliantly in battle, he was still an old man who was past his prime.

If he maintains a life without fighting or with low intensity of fighting, he can still maintain his combat effectiveness for a long time. But fighting head-on with Kyuubi was still too intense.

The chakra was extremely overdrawn - part of which was used to rescue ninjas and civilians involved in the battle. There were many soft tissue contusions on the body, and the internal organs were extremely injured.

Kyuubi's fist was so powerful that it was not visible at the time. When Sandai was examined at the hospital, he discovered that many of his internal organs had been ruptured and the bleeding was extremely serious.

To make matters worse, Tsunade-hime is still not in Konoha. With such an injury, given the current medical level of Konoha Hospital, it was lucky for the third generation to be able to save his life.

From now on, he can basically no longer use powerful Ninjutsu of A level and above, or high-intensity Taijutsu to resist.

"After an investigation, we can find that all the ninja teams guarding the Jinchuriki have been eliminated."

The third generation, who was still a little trembling, glanced at Danzo and said: "Whether it is Anbu or Root, all ninjas are dead. Moreover, the methods of handling the corpses are very similar, and it cannot be ruled out that it is the same person."

"Although I don't think there is anyone in this ninja world who can single-handedly defeat so many outstanding ninjas without any chance." Sarutobi couldn't help coughing.

"Where is the space ninjutsu?" Daimyo, who was always shaking his small folding fan, said, "I remember that the fourth generation seemed to have fought against an enemy who was proficient in time and space ninjutsu."

The third generation was silent: "Judging from the traces on the scene, it is unlikely."

"Of course, the reason for the enemy's disguise cannot be ruled out."

"The enemy's trace elimination techniques are superb, and the ANBU ninja can't find any clues. Now it's up to the Yamanaka clan to explore the brain of the deceased."

"That is to say..." Danzo said calmly: "We don't know anything about the situation now?"

The third generation said helplessly: "From the current point of view, yes."

There was silence for a moment.

"Hiruzen..." Danzo's voice was filled with anger: "I hate to say this, but you let us down."

"Back then, I didn't agree with sealing the Nine-Tails in a child's body!" He began to recall the past again, as if to let everyone know that he had foresight.

"Children's emotional instability can easily cause the seal to loosen." He calmed down and explained to the daimyo: "As for the Nine-Tails, as the most powerful tailed beast, only powerful and ruthless ninjas can suppress it. restlessness."

"It's just as I expected!" He took a sip of tea: "The Jinchuuriki couldn't suppress the Nine-Tails very well, he rioted."

"Although I admire 'Gen''s performance in the rescue activities..." The third generation waited for Danzo to finish speaking before he spoke slowly: "But I have to say that you are still not up to par in terms of Jinchūriki." He He looked at Danzo with interest.

"Kyuubi did attack the seal, but it was not because of Naruto..." Suspending everyone's doubts, the third generation said solemnly: "On Naruto's body, we found traces of man-made destruction of the seal!"

"What!" Mito Kadoyan and Koharu, who was transferred to the dormitory, exclaimed.

"I suspect that this incident was caused by the figure of the Mangekyo Sharingan during the Nine-Tails Rebellion a few years ago!"

"When the sealing squad arrived, they quickly subdued the Nine-Tails. Their squad leader also found me in private."

The third generation spoke eloquently: "He told me that it was precisely because the jinchuriki's seal was artificially torn open that the Kyuubi broke the seal."

Sarutobi Hiruzen concealed the fact that the Fourth Generation had left a hole in Naruto: "It's a very simple reason, if there is a problem with the seal, why did the Nine-Tails wait until now to activate it? When Naruto was young, he There’s plenty of time!”

Everyone is thoughtful.

"Hiruzhan, I admit that what you said makes sense." Danzo did not hold on, but instead talked about another thing: "I remember that the sealing technique on the Jinchuriki is top secret: the Eight Trigrams Seal?"

"Indeed." Sandai nodded.

"Only a few jonin under you and me are qualified to understand this sealing technique and have the skills to tear it open."

Danzo finally showed his fangs: "Everyone knows that the ninjas under my command all bear the 'Seal of the Tongue's Disaster', and it is impossible to escape from control. Hiruzen, only the ninjas under your command may have leaked the information about the human pillar." The secret of the power seal!"

Danzo's words make sense at first glance. But a careful analysis shows that if Danzo himself intends to attack the Jinchuuriki, who among the root ninjas can organize and stop it?

"I can guarantee that the people I trust will not betray Konoha!" Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression was ugly.

"At this time, it's no longer just you. Can you guarantee the protection of others? Hiruzen!" Danzo specifically emphasized the word "one person": "But for this matter, one person must be involved. Responsible!"

The expressions of the other two consultant elders were already a little stiff, and Nara Shikamaru also knew Danzo's plan at this time.

He held his forehead: The position of Hokage...

The third generation's face was ashen. He did not expect that at such a juncture, Danzo would take such a risk!

But he sighed and made a compromise: "I have been in poor health since I temporarily took over as Hokage... The battle with Kyuubi just now also illustrates this point."

"Besides, something like this happened in the village... The doctor warned me that my body is no longer suitable for violent fighting..."

"So, I will take responsibility and resign as Hokage!"

No one was too surprised. In other words, after hearing Danzo's words, everyone deduced this result.

"What a pity... You have done a good job, Third Generation." The daimyo tried to persuade him symbolically, and then started another topic: "So... who do you think will be the candidate for the Fifth Hokage?"
