Chapter 294 Hibernation

Half an hour ago, the Third Hokage arrived at the Anbu base and summoned his elite ninjas.

However, after arriving at the outskirts of the Uchiha clan, the Third Hokage did not rush to enter the clan, but ordered his men to block the nearby streets to ensure that no one nearby interfered with Uchiha Itachi's actions.

In the eyes of the Third Hokage, since he followed Uchiha Itachi's advice to destroy the Uchiha clan tonight.

Then this matter must be done cleanly and neatly, without leaving any handle. Except for the elderly, children, women and children, all Uchiha ninjas with combat effectiveness must be ensured to die in the turmoil tonight.

Once the remnants of the Uchiha escaped from Konoha, they would surely set off a storm in the ninja world, putting themselves and the village in a passive situation.

At this time, the Third Hokage frowned when he saw Danzo walking out of the clan.

He remembered that he had knocked Danzo once not long ago. How dare Danzo appear in the Uchiha clan tonight? Does Danzo want to get the Sharingan so much?

After a cold snort in his heart, the Third Hokage said to Danzo: "Danzo, I need an explanation? Why did you appear in the Uchiha clan's territory?"

Shisui, who played Danzo, quickly got into the role and said slowly:

"Hiruzen, I am just monitoring the Uchiha clan as usual. I suspect that the Uchiha clan wants to launch a coup tonight, so I specially led my men to surround the Uchiha clan's territory."

"I didn't expect that a civil strife broke out inside the Uchiha clan tonight, and many people died."

"In order to ensure that the blood limit in the village does not leak out, I had to let my men clean up the bodies and remove the Sharingan on the bodies."

After hearing that Danzo came for the Sharingan, the Third Hokage thought to himself that it was true.

Since the death of Mr. Tobirama, Danzo has intentionally or unintentionally begun to target the Uchiha clan, believing that the Uchiha clan is a clan that is born evil.

Whenever the village suffers any losses, Danzo will jump out and put the blame on the Uchiha clan.

Whenever Uchiha gained some merit, Danzo would find various reasons to suppress Uchiha.

After a long time, even he, Xiaochun, Yan and others gradually became prejudiced against Uchiha, and inadvertently targeted Uchiha several times, indirectly forcing Uchiha to go on the road of rebellion.

If it weren't for Uchiha Itachi's deep understanding of justice, Uchiha's rebellion tonight would never end so easily, and it would most likely cause more serious consequences, and it is not impossible to lose the entire Anbu.

Even so, the village tonight still lost dozens of elite ninjas.

Once the news of the extinction of the Uchiha clan spread to the outside world, it would inevitably cause a lot of turmoil.

Thinking of this, the Third Hokage became more and more annoyed with Danzo. After walking up to the latter, he snorted and said, "Danzo, if you hadn't attacked Shisui, things would never have come to this point."

"From today on, I will remove you from the position of Konoha Elder and expel you from the high-level meeting."

Facing the order of the Third Hokage, Uchiha Shisui sneered in his heart, then looked at the Third Hokage fiercely and threw down a few harsh words:

"Hiruzen, I will obey your orders, but one day you will regret it."

"You must remember that I am doing things for you, and I am doing things that you want to do but dare not do. For the Konoha Ninja Village, I can do it with a clear conscience. Can you?"

After saying that, Shisui stepped into the crowd and disappeared into the darkness.

He has fulfilled his promise to save Uchiha. In the rest of his life, in addition to helping Lord Baiye, he only has to take revenge on his enemies.

How Uchiha was forced into a desperate situation, and how his grandfather Uchiha Kagami died, all these need to be investigated carefully, and then give the murderer a surprise that he would never expect.

After hearing the few words left by Danzo, the Third Hokage silently recited them in his heart, and his face became even uglier.

What does it mean to do something he wants to do but dares not do? Although he did have the idea of ​​destroying Uchiha and getting rid of Uchiha Shisui in his heart, it was only limited to thoughts.

As long as he did not put it into practice, nothing would happen.

On the contrary, Danzo always sought personal interests under the pretext of doing good for the village, and after making serious mistakes, he always cleaned up the mess.

However, that was all in the past.

Since the Uchiha clan, the thorn in the village, has been eliminated, there is no need to let Danzo continue to stay in the position of advisory elder.

If Danzo continues to toss like this, I am afraid that even the Hyuga clan will rebel.

After entering the Uchiha clan land, the Third Hokage smelled the blood in the air, but after entering the house, he could not find the bodies of the dead. They seemed to have been moved by the roots in advance.

Not long after, the Third Hokage came to the mansion of Uchiha Fugaku.

There was still no body in the Fugaku mansion, but judging from the scale of the building damage, there had been a fierce battle here.

After searching for a while, the Anbu ninja found Sasuke in the closet.

Sasuke was sweating profusely, holding the Anbu ninja's clothes tightly, and kept muttering Itachi's name, as if he had encountered a nightmare.

After bringing Sasuke to the Third Hokage, the Anbu ninja said: "Third Hokage, this should be the only survivor of the Uchiha. He is in a very bad state and seems to have been frightened by something."

"Frightened?" The Third Hokage shook his head, and after sensing Sasuke, he confirmed that Sasuke was under an illusion and began to make hand seals to remove the illusion.

As the chakra running through the meridians returned to normal, Sasuke looked much better.

Seeing this, the Third Hokage sighed and said:

"This child is not simply frightened, but has been hit by an illusion. I have just removed the illusion for him, but it may take several months or even years for him to recover completely."

The Anbu beside him nodded and looked at Sasuke in his arms with some pity.

In just one night, this child lost all his clan members and became a loner in the literal sense. Such a heavy blow is difficult for even mature adults to accept.

Not to mention such a young child.

The Third Hokage looked at Sasuke and had different ideas. Of course, he would take good care of Sasuke. This is his duty as a Hokage.

But Sasuke is not just a poor orphan to him.

Sasuke is the only Uchiha left in the village, and the only bond between him and Uchiha Itachi. Although the Uchiha clan extermination night tonight was caused by Itachi and other ninjas.

But it also indirectly proves Uchiha Itachi's strength. Considering Itachi's age of thirteen, Itachi is likely to become a powerful ninja like Uchiha Madara in the near future.

If such a ninja stands on the opposite side of the village, it will be a great loss to the village.

And now he still needs to rely on Uchiha Itachi to divert hatred, investigate the truth of the night of the Nine-tailed Fox, and what the so-called masked man wants to do to the village.
