Konoha Village, Uchiha Clan.
Uchiha Shinichi knelt outside the Patriarch's house with a serious face.
Uchiha Kurumi's death had turned her into a cold and reserved person, yet she remained not desperate, as Shinichi strongly believed that the majestic Uchiha Clan would definitely not let the damned assassin off.
Uchiha Shinichi strongly believed that the people from the Uchiha Clan would never die in vain!
Shinichi looked at the closed door in front of him with a hint of hope in his eyes.
Right now, the meeting of the elite shinobi of the Uchiha Clan was being held through that door. The elites are discussing how to solve the murder of Uchiha Kurumi at the hands of Root Shinobi.
While waiting for the meeting to finish, Shinichi frowned at the peculiarity of his Sharingan.
Shinichi has realized that the Sharingan has been acting strangely since Kurumi's death, at times a little out of control and his insight has also improved significantly in recent days.
If such a thing had happened in the past, Shinichi would definitely be very happy, and even arrogantly flaunt it to the other Uchiha, but with Kurumi's death, even if his student's strength increased, he said, he had no interest in focusing on such meaningless things. .
…
Inside the Patriarch's House.
Shisui was sitting in the corner with a tired expression.
This exhaustion was in no way caused due to maintaining the Shadow Clone to cover Kuroto's absence for the past few days. All he felt was mental exhaustion and worry as the situation between the Uchiha Clan and the Hokage Clan was at a more acute point.
If something is not done, then no doubt, both sides will fall apart.
And Shisui could feel a third-party involvement in Kurumi's death scenario.
First, Shisui also agreed with Kuroto-San's assessment that, the Advisory Council did not want to test the patience of the Uchiha Clan before the Village managed to sign a peace treaty with the Cloud Village.
Another reason was that Danzo-Sama had no reason to issue an order to kill Uchiha Kurumi. Kurumi's Sharingan is also in 2 tomoe condition, so Danzo-Sama won't do it for the Sharingan.
And even if, with some possibility of him indeed giving such an order, then in the style of how the Anbu Root operated, they would definitely carry out group attacks, quick ambushes, and assassinations, it was impossible to let Shinichi know of the incident and then escape in panic.
‘No matter how I think about it, it must be a trap!’ – thought Shisui.
Kuroto-San did mention that there might be Uchiha descendants outside the village who were planning to harm the Uchiha Clan and Konoha, although Shisui understood that it was possible, he still felt a little unreasonable about it, but after rethinking it and with how the pieces were a puzzle involving the Kyuubi Rebellion, the, and now that Kurumi's Uchiha deaths are being linked one by one leading to the unfortunate situation of the Uchiha Clan, Shisui begins to believe that might just be the case.
Even he felt that there was a third party hiding behind the scenes and secretly controlling everything for the destruction of the Uchiha!
“Anbu Akar Danzo dared to do such a thing and now Danzo refuses to hand over his killer, this is a provocation to the Uchiha Clan, Faguku-Sama!”
“Yes, if we forgive them, then next time he will do something like this again!”
“After all, other Clans will also believe that the Uchiha Clan is a coward who submits in front of that trash!”
“We can't let go of this problem!”
All the Uchiha ninjas in the meeting room were restless in Danzo's dirty way.
The Patriarch of the Uchiha Clan also had a serious face as usual.
“Solence!” – With Fugaku command, everyone calms down.
After pondering for a bit, Fugaku glanced towards Shisui and asked, “What did Sandaime respond to?”
Subduing his head, Shisui replied with a helpless expression, “I'm sorry I'm the head of the Clan, but my request to meet was rejected.”
As the Anbu-11 Team was temporarily suspended, Shisui lost his right to meet Hokage-Sama in person. Therefore, if he wanted to meet the Hokage, he needed to ask for an appointment like any other ninja.
However, Shisui's request this time was rejected outright by Sandaime.
Hearing Shisui's reply; fugaku's expression darkened.
Even Uchiha Fugaku could judge that something was amiss in this situation, but whether this matter was really related to Danzo or not, the distrust of the Konoha Council on the Uchiha Clan was clearly displayed here, but, if this continued, the Uchiha Clan and the Hokage would eventually reach a point when there would be no choice left but to Rebellion.
Although Sandaime's power has begun to decline due to his advanced age, he remains one of the strongest shinobi in Konoha Village with the power of the Kage Class, even Uchiha Fugaku himself with Mangekyou was unsure of winning against Sandaime.
Coupled with the presence of the other three members of the Advisory Council namely Sannin Jiraiya, as well as the other Anbu and Root elites, it was almost impossible for the Uchiha Clan to successfully overthrow the Hokage Clan.
More importantly, the intentions of the other Konoha Clans were also ambiguous, if the Uchiha Clan was in a dilemma, they might only support the Uchiha, but if the Uchiha started the Coup D’at, they might just support the Uchiha, Fugaku could be more than confident that they would never support the Uchiha Clan. And just to make matters worse, most Clans might even side with the Hokage Clan without hesitation.
Therefore, Fugaku was also not sure what to do!
Looking at the faces of the restless people, Fugaku sighed helplessly.
Fugaku did not want to restore the glory of the Uchiha Clan and become the Hokage at the cost of the lives of its people. As someone who had awakened Mangekyou, she knew very well what pain it was to lose a loved one.
Although Fugaku did not reveal this, he was very worried about the Uchiha situation. If this kind of situation continued, the entire Uchiha Clan would be destroyed…
…
Konoha Village, Hokage Office.
Meanwhile a meeting was held in the Uchiha Clan to discuss what to do about the Kurumi Uchiha's murder.
Another meeting was held at the Hokage Office with the presence of Sandaime and three Council Advisors.
Tuk. Tuk…
Looking at his looks, Danzo tapped his cane to the ground in annoyance and said in annoyance, “I've said it, this matter is not under my instructions!”
Hearing Danzo's reply, Utatane Koharu asked with a cold expression, “Then how could a ninja from your Root kill a girl from the Uchiha Clan?”
After a slight hesitation, Danzo told the other three people in the office about the exact situation reported to him by the Root ninja and added angrily, “I suspect that this incident was made by the Uchiha Clan!”
Listening to Danzo's explanation and analysis, Homura asked solemnly, “Do you have any evidence to prove your words?”
“I don't have one and I don't care! I've already said that this must be their enforcement to threaten us! ” with an angry roar, Danzo continued, “I say that Uchiha is just trying to threaten us by causing a riot while the village is negotiating with Cloud Village!”
Shimura Danzo has always been the one to play her cards while hiding behind the scenes and using others as her scapegoat, this time, she is unexpectedly blamed for the death of the Uchiha boy, so this makes him very upset.
Although he was vaguely aware that there might be some hidden power manipulating the ropes from the shadows, now Danzo could only point his finger at the Uchiha. As for who was the person hidden in the shadows?
It was another matter altogether, and he swore to find a person who dared to be more shameless than him!
Danzo's words made Sandaime a little upset.
Peace talks with the cloud village were unsuccessful. It has been several months since the conflict subsided but the differences in representatives of both sides have made negotiations unproductive.
As the attacked party, Sandaime's agreement to the peace treaty had put him in a difficult position, if he made concessions under the terms stated by the Raikage boy, which he was trying to make, it would be difficult to suppress the criticism he would receive even with his prestige as the longest-reigning Hokage, especially when you have Shimura Danzo as your second commander!
However, the attitude of Cloud Village was very harsh and they constantly refused to compensate for the losses of Konoha Village, and this made Sandaime even more upset.
Putting his firing pipe in the ashtray on the side, Sandaime stated firmly, “This thing you just reported, leaving your personal analysis, should be clearly explained to the Uchiha Clan, This thing you just reported, leaving your personal analysis, should be explained clearly to the Uchiha Clan, no questions asked, I do not want. there was chaos in the village during the peace talks, is it clear?”
Listening to Hokage's orders, Danzo asked coldly, “What explanation should I give them?”
Sandaime also knew that forcing Danzo too much was also counterproductive, so said in a calm voice, “Let your Akarmu ninja go and explain the entire situation to Uchiha Fugaku in person. I believe that Fugaku is wise and calm enough not to take any foolish action!”
“I'll set it up!”
Squinting his eyes, Danzo nodded as he gritted his teeth with a frustrated expression at the fact that he had to submit to the despicable Uchiha Clan.
If only he was Hokage, not Hiruzen!
This time Shimura Danzo lost half of the fight…
