59 Chapter 59: Danzo's Bad Day Gets Worse

"Danzo probably hates Fugaku-sama to death, but what does all this have to do with Itachi?"

"You're right. Who would have thought that the person who would lead us to stop Danzo this time would be Fugaku-sama's son, Uchiha Itachi!"

"They probably still firmly believe that Itachi is the heir to the Will of Fire!"

"It's Fugaku-sama's side... Haha, the next time Danzo sees Fugaku-sama and curses him, Fugaku-sama is probably still confused and doesn't know what's going on."

More than a dozen Uchiha stayed on the spot and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

[Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!]

Sounds of breaking the air could be heard.

The Uchiha immediately prepared for battle. Yashiro took a step forward, directly facing the newcomers.

There were quite a few of them, and the leader was none other than the Third Hokage. Torifu also came.

At least half of Konoha's shinobi clan, big and small, were here.

Koharu immediately shouted: "Uchiha, are you really planning to betray the village?"

Yashiro sneered. "Damn old lady, what do you mean by that? When did the Uchiha betray the village? If you want to tar the Uchiha with that, and try some of your tricks, then try it, see if the Uchiha clan is easy to bully."

"What did you call me?!" Koharu almost fainted from rage. Since becoming an elder, who dares to disrespect her?

The other shinobi also looked stunned.

The Uchiha's expressions were indifferent, with the Sharingan appearing in their eyes.

Several of them even took out signal bombs, ready to launch at any time, asking for help from the clan.

Looking at the posture of the Uchiha, everyone knows that once the signals are released, it will mean that the village and the Uchiha clan have officially started the war!

"Ahem!"

"Everyone, calm down!" Torifu stood up at this time, glared at Koharu, and said: "What nonsense are you talking about? Which eye did you see that Uchiha was betraying the village? Koharu, as an elder, you should be careful about what you say."

"You..." Koharu was surprised. She also felt a little regretful after seeing Uchiha's violent reaction.

Hiruzen, who was about to speak, was also stunned for a moment. He took a deep look at Torifu, turned to Yashiro and the others and said: "Uchiha Yashiro, calm down."

"We have always been calm, Hokage-sama!" Yashiro said calmly. "But someone here doesn't ask what's happening and immediately accuses the Uchiha of betraying the village."

"I wonder, where do you get this idea that the Uchiha is planning to betray the village? Or has someone always wanted the Uchiha to betray the village?"

Many looked at Koharu curiously, while others remained silent.

Everyone knew that this was another confrontation between the Hokage faction and the Uchiha clan.

"Well, let's put aside the false accusations for now and discuss this later." The Third Hokage said with a softer tone. "Talk, what happened here? The sensor-type shinobi reported an intense battle."

"Besides..."

The Third Hokage looked at the corpses on the ground and said in a deep voice: "Don't blame the elders for being outspoken. In fact, I also want to know why there are ANBU corpses here?"

"You Uchiha are fighting against ANBU!? How brave you are!"

"We are indeed fighting the ANBU!" Yashiro said without hesitation. "Because Uchiha Shisui was attacked by the Hokage's assistant, Shimura Danzo, together with the ANBU, I want to ask the Hokage if this was ordered by you, or if Danzo acted on his own."

These words left everyone present breathless. The atmosphere became even more tense.

The Third Hokage was furious with Danzo.

"How dare Danzo do something like that?"

"Hokage-sama!" Yashiro said in a deep voice. "This is already obvious. Danzo led the ANBU to besiege Uchiha Shisui for no reason, resulting in Shisui being seriously injured. He is now being treated in the clan, so I ask the Hokage to give us an explanation."

"After all, Shisui is not only a high-ranking shinobi of the Uchiha clan, but also a prominent shinobi of Konoha, a hero of the Third Shinobi World War."

"There is no reason for an unprovoked attack, and the shinobi of the village will not accept it."

"Don't worry, the Hokage will definitely give you an explanation!" Before the Third Hokage could speak, Torifu had already spoken.

His words were cold, and he said: "Uchiha Shisui is a jonin and a hero of Konoha. Danzo is nothing but a stinky rat, and he actually dares to bare his teeth."

"Torifu!" The Third Hokage's mouth was full of bitterness.

Koharu was also stunned.

Did Torifu openly side with the Uchiha clan? This is very dangerous.

In an instant, Koharu and the others felt cold and were sweating profusely.

"Hiruzen!" Torifu looked at Hiruzen and said slowly: "Don't forget that you are the Hokage. If you can't execute Danzo because of the old relationship, then let me do it, let me kill that bastard."

"Torifu!" The Third Hokage's words became stern.

He said in a deep voice: "Don't talk nonsense. We don't know what is going on in this matter. We cannot listen to Uchiha's one-sided words."

The Third Hokage looked at Uchiha Yashiro and others, his eyes flashing coldly, and said: "ANBU will intervene in the investigation of this matter and announce the truth."

"No!" Yashiro refused without hesitation.

"What did you say?" The Third Hokage's eyes were cold, and his thin body was like a towering mountain in an instant.

His palms were sweating, but Yashiro's expression remained calm, and he said: "We don't trust the ANBU, because the people who just besieged Shisui were ANBU."

"Hokage-sama, it's not that we doubt you, but Danzo is too cunning. It's obvious that he has put his people inside the ANBU. If the ANBU investigate, the shinobi of the village will likely be dissatisfied."

"Really?" The Third Hokage's words were icy cold, causing chills to those who heard them.

'Damn, how is it possible that Danzo can move the ANBU to the Root?' Koharu complained in her mind. 'Danzo is also a waste, and he actually made such a big fuss.'

"Hiruzen, there is a problem with the ANBU, and it is indeed your responsibility!" Torifu spoke indifferently from the side.

The Third Hokage looked at his old friend in silence, his eyes so deep that it was hard to tell what he was thinking.

Homura couldn't help herself. "Torifu, why are you..."

"What's wrong with me?" Torifu looked at him coldly and said: "Don't you let me talk about Danzo's involvement in ANBU?"

Homura wanted to say something else, but Koharu gestured for her to shut up.

She looked at Yashiro and asked: "You don't agree with the ANBU investigation? Do you want the Uchiha to handle it?"

"Of course not!" Yashiro raised his hand and said: "I propose that the Jonin Commander, Nara Shikaku, investigate."

"What do you think?"

"Alright!" Before anyone else could speak, the Third Hokage was the first to agree.

He turned to look at Shikaku in the crowd and said: "Uchiha, ANBU, and Danzo are all extremely important parts of the village. Shikaku, you must investigate carefully, do you understand?"

"Yes sir." Shikaku quickly agreed.

[Swoosh!]

The Third Hokage was the first to leave. The others quickly followed him.

In the blink of an eye, only Uchiha was left here again.

Yashiro looked at the others and smiled lightly. "All went well."

Shirayu looked towards the horizon and said: "How will the situation be there?"

"Haha, if Minister Funan takes action personally, there will definitely be no problem!"

The Uchiha were full of confidence in Funan, a confidence that no one could question.

The sound of blood dripping onto the ground was heard.

This time, the target changed from Shisui to Danzo.

He ran disheveled, his wounds were barely treated, and because of his sudden movements, blood was gushing out again. But his expression was wild and malevolent.

"Damn Uchiha!"

"Evil Uchiha!"

"Just wait, I will definitely deal with you next time."

"Huh? Who?" Suddenly, a shinobi who was following Danzo gave a cold shout. His eyes were looking straight to the left, and his whole body was tense.

Danzo also became nervous. He was injured and only had three guards around him.

"Pills for sale!"

"The little blue pill!"

With a high-pitched voice, Funan pushed a cart, shouting as he walked.

When he saw Danzo, his eyes lit up, he smiled, and said: "Oh, if it's not Danzo-sama! How about it? Do you want to buy some blue pills? They're good for your physical and mental health!"

"Uchiha... Funan!" Danzo's heart sank.

"Danzo-sama, are you interested? They are of good quality and fair price, no tricks!" Funan actually took out a small blue pill, smiled and said: "Danzo-sama, I see that you are usually weak, and you've lost so much blood, you absolutely need my pills to help you stand up again!"
