“Don't worry, those guys aren't a big problem.”

Hiruzen Sarutobi was relieved to see that Hideyoshi was alright, and then he spoke seriously.

“Hideyoshi, what exactly is going on? What happened to the Uchiha? What are they…”

What Hiruzen Sarutobi was most worried about now was the Uchiha clan, or rather, what kind of trouble the Uchiha clan's actions tonight would cause for the village!

To be honest, looking at the scene in front of him, he knew that the Uchiha were finished, and it was hard to say whether there would be any survivors.

Such a large clan suddenly became like this, and he also felt a pang of sorrow. Of course, the most important thing was that Konoha had lost a powerful force!

“Lord Hokage, there's something strange about tonight's events.”

Hideyoshi nodded slightly, but at that moment, a commotion suddenly came from outside.

“Let me in! Let me in! This is my home! Let me in!”

A young voice rang out from outside, and Hideyoshi knew without thinking that it was probably Sasuke coming back.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed and casually nodded to the ninja beside him. Soon, Sasuke was brought in by an Anbu member.

Looking at Sasuke in front of him, Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed. This was probably going to be the last of the Uchiha bloodline.

“Hideyoshi, continue. He is a member of the Uchiha, and although he is young, he should know.”

“Yes.”

Hideyoshi nodded, looking at Sasuke, whose eyes were faintly glistening with tears, and secretly sighed that he had acted too quickly, forgetting to let the brothers meet.

“Tonight, I was originally resting, but I seemed to detect spatial fluctuations within the village, which made me think of someone.”

“Uchiha Obito?”

Hiruzen Sarutobi instantly knew who he was talking about.

“That's right, I also guessed it was him, after all, only he possesses spatial abilities.”

Blaming Obito for everything had almost become a habit for Hideyoshi.

But it was just so easy to use, and no one could deny that Uchiha Obito had appeared tonight.

“So I followed the chakra fluctuations and arrived, and I found that someone seemed to have already been here, and there was a strong bloody smell within the Uchiha clan.”

“Are you saying that the Akatsuki organization did it?”

Hiashi Hyuga shouldn't have spoken, but tonight's events had given him a huge shock, and he couldn't help but ask.

“Yes, but not entirely.”

Hideyoshi shook his head. He glanced at everyone present, especially Danzo, whose face was a little unsightly, and continued.

“When I went in, I found Uchiha Itachi was slaughtering the entire Uchiha clan, and I was stopped by a member of the Akatsuki organization.”

“What!”

“Impossible!”

“Uchiha Itachi?!”

Hideyoshi's words immediately caused everyone present to change their expressions drastically. Uchiha Itachi slaughtering the Uchiha clan?

Was this a joke?

Moreover, Uchiha Itachi was also connected to the Akatsuki organization?

What kind of development was this?

“Impossible, you're talking nonsense!”

Little Sasuke couldn't accept all of this and couldn't help but shout loudly at Hideyoshi.

“How could brother, how could brother…”

“If we can still find the bodies, then I think a careful examination will reveal what happened.”

Hideyoshi sighed, and he also put on an unbelievable look.

“To be honest, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have dared to believe it. After all, who can kill their own clansmen, friends, and even parents?

And during the battle just now, I also saw many corpses of old people, children, and even pregnant women, and they were not killed by the Akatsuki organization.

Because they seemed to have come from other places, and they had blood stains on their bodies. If there are no accidents, they should be from the police force.”

Akatsuki solved the police force, Uchiha Itachi slaughtered the Uchiha clan?

Clansmen, friends, old people, children, pregnant women…

Hearing this series of words, many ninjas, and even Anbu ninjas, had slightly hardened fists at this time.

As ninjas, they were all war machines, and their hands were stained with an unknown amount of blood.

If it was the enemy, it would be fine, but they would never be able to bring themselves to harm their own relatives and friends, and they couldn't possibly harm these people!

But Uchiha Itachi was able to be so decisive, which really made them feel incredible.

“Uchiha Itachi… Akatsuki…”

Hiruzen Sarutobi felt his fists harden, while Danzo stood aside and didn't dare to speak.

He didn't care what Uchiha Itachi did. Anyway, the Uchiha were enemies to him, but this guy was actually connected to the Akatsuki organization?

This was screwing him over!

“By the way, Lord Hokage, there is one more thing I need to report.”

However, just as Danzo was most worried, Hideyoshi suddenly spoke again.

“Uchiha Obito felt that he had everything under control, so he told me some things.

He said that tonight was to teach Konoha a lesson, and someone in Konoha had agreed to attack the Uchiha, otherwise they wouldn't have been so smooth.

They sought out many wandering ninjas and bounty hunters to attack from the outside, and at the same time released the prisoners in the prison to attract the attention of the Konoha ninjas.

In order to allow them to attack the Uchiha, and to carry out revenge actions against the entire Konoha, it was just that I noticed the situation and came over.

So, the Uchiha may not have intended to rebel at all, they…”

“Alright, stop talking!”

Hiruzen Sarutobi interrupted him immediately before Hideyoshi could finish speaking.

The Uchiha didn't rebel, how was that possible?

It's just that they didn't rebel tonight, who knows when they will!

However, he quickly realized that this was to save some face for Konoha and the Uchiha, preparing to shift the blame onto someone!

After all, who else could agree to take action and provide information besides someone in a high position of power in Konoha?

"Danzo."

Hiruzen Sarutobi also had his own line of reasoning; he glanced silently at the pale-faced Danzo.

He knew that Danzo was going to suffer again.

Moreover, to be honest, he felt that Danzo had probably been played as well; Itachi Uchiha might very well be a member of the Akatsuki!

Their goal wasn't just the Uchiha, but the entire Konoha.

Thinking of this, he became angry, because he had also been deceived!

And recently, he had been quite annoyed by Danzo; could this be a good opportunity?

"Danzo, do you have anything to say!"

Thinking of this, his expression immediately turned stern, and he glared at Danzo as he asked.

"It's all because I've been too lenient with you! How many times have I told you that the Uchiha are our comrades? How could you do such a thing?

You misjudged people; you didn't even investigate who Itachi Uchiha really was before daring to do such a thing. What were you thinking?"

"I..."

Danzo wanted to ask, wasn't Itachi Uchiha first recruited into the Anbu by you? Why are you only blaming me now?

Listening to Shūzawa's words, he knew he was going to be in trouble, which made him glare at Shūzawa with resentment.

Weren't you deceived by 'For Konoha'? Have you forgotten 'For Lord Danzo'?

But he also knew that tonight, no matter what, he was destined to take the blame.

"I was also doing it for Konoha, but I didn't know that this Itachi Uchiha would be so deranged!"

Danzo immediately cut ties at lightning speed, but Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at the devastated land, and his inner anger surged even more.

If Shūzawa hadn't launched his attack towards the outside of Konoha, and instead attacked within Konoha, it wouldn't just be the Uchiha who were gone tonight, but Konoha itself!

"Enough, from today onwards, you are relieved of your position as Hokage Assistant and Root Leader!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's words instantly chilled Danzo to the bone.

Removed so thoroughly?

"Hiruzen, I..."

Danzo was truly panicked at this moment; he immediately opened his mouth to say something, but Hiruzen Sarutobi snorted coldly and didn't even look at him.

"Didn't you hear Shūzawa's words? The Uchiha did not rebel; this was all a conspiracy by Akatsuki and Itachi Uchiha!

Even if it wasn't their conspiracy, you lightly trusted Itachi Uchiha without investigating thoroughly. How can I trust your judgment?

At the very least, you actually allowed the Uchiha to kill each other and be destroyed, allowing a ninja to endure such a tragic thing. Konoha cannot do this!"

At this moment, the golden light that had not completely dissipated in the sky shone on Hiruzen Sarutobi, making him look exceptionally majestic.

And these words also chilled Danzo's blood; not to mention the matter of being a scapegoat, just the exposure of the choice made by Itachi Uchiha would cost him his life!

He didn't understand if Itachi Uchiha was crazy; wasn't he supposed to protect his younger brother?

Wait...

He killed his whole family, so would he still care about his younger brother?

"I was really played?!"

Danzo clenched his fists, his whole person already with eyes wide open in anger.

He now directly forgot about Shūzawa's 'inciting' incident; he only wanted to strangle Itachi Uchiha to death, and even wanted to kill Itachi Uchiha's younger brother together!

But he simply couldn't do it; the last bloodline of the Uchiha could not allow him to do anything.

The most crucial thing was that he no longer had any power in his hands!

"Itachi Uchiha, you deserve to die!"

Danzo roared in his heart, Sasuke Uchiha was crying softly on the side, and all the ninjas present felt sympathy.

Only Shūzawa didn't have any expression on his face; even at this moment, he suddenly raised his eyebrows, and finally lowered his head to conceal his expression.

Because he discovered that his system seemed to be starting to settle...

And in a forest outside Konoha, the space suddenly twisted.

The next moment, Itachi Uchiha, covered in blood, staggered out of the space, and the situation of the group of people behind him was similar to his.

"What kind of power was that?"

Orochimaru walked out of the space with faltering steps; he looked back at Konoha, which was still covered in golden light, for the first time.

Then he looked at the ground; the terrifying crack, like a canyon, actually extended to this place!

He really couldn't help but think, if Shūzawa Zhīyuán's battle had been directed towards the center of Konoha, instead of facing the outside of the village.

And the Uchiha clan hadn't been driven to the edge of the village, wouldn't this have directly split the entire Konoha in two?

"Is this the power of the Senju?"

Orochimaru couldn't help but mutter in his heart, but he was also a little puzzled; when did the Senju use their power like this?

"That's really scary."

Kakuzu also couldn't help but speak from the side; he was also feeling sympathetic now; if it weren't for that monster blocking them, and if they hadn't run fast.

They were probably really going to die!

He knew that his 'new boss' Shūzawa was powerful; so many people in Akatsuki had never gained an advantage, but the power displayed this time was too fierce, right?

Sasori and Jūzō Biwa were also extremely miserable; the violent power spread out, and no one could endure it.
