Chapter 118 - [Bonus] Konohagakure's Response

[Hello Readers, this concludes the bonus chapters this week. Thank you all for your support. Let's aim for 200 power stones in the next week.]

...

All the scars on Uchiha Fugaku, who was originally covered in blood, disappeared and he recovered to health.

The only change was that one of Uchiha Fugaku's eyes turned blurry white and he completely lost his vision.

"Izanagi? When was it?" A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the great elder of the Uchiha family.

Uchiha Fugaku, unknowingly cast Izanagi and even tricked him.

Just now, the other members of the clan were attacking Uchiha Fugaku's weak points.

He inserted his kunai into Uchiha Fugaku's chest and killed him directly. He didn't want Uchiha Fugaku to be insulted too much, and it was also a farewell to the past.

He will not let go of anyone who harms the Uchiha family.

Unexpectedly, Uchiha Fugaku had already prepared for this.

"No wonder you dare to provoke me like that, this is what you rely on.

Seven and a half minutes is pretty good, and in a fight, it's enough to make people let down their guard."

Senju Nawaki stared at Uchiha Fugaku who was blind in one eye. Being able to train Izanagi to this level was another kind of genius.

Danzo Shimura used Izanagi for about a minute, relying on the arms formed by Mokuton.

Madara Uchiha was able to last up to ten minutes in the Valley of the End.

The power of yin and yang is the important factor affecting Izanagi's control of time.

"It's just useless work."

Senju Nawaki shook his head, and a golden skeleton rose under his feet, punching Uchiha Fugaku at an extremely slow speed.

"The power of God, Susanoo!" The great elder of the Uchiha family exclaimed.

This is what the clan records: the divine power of the Mangekyō Sharingan, combining the strongest shield and the strongest spear in one.

Uchiha Fugaku wanted to dodge, but found that the space around him was blocked.

In desperation, he could only use Izanagi again.

He had a premonition that the person in front of him was forcing him to use Izanagi.

boom...

It turned into a pool of meat paste.

"You who have lost your eyes, feel the real world with your heart!"

Senju Nawaki no longer paid any attention.

Entering Naka Shrine.

The Uchiha clan members were once again in confusion.

The Uchiha elders, who are in the lead, follow closely in the footsteps of Senju Nawaki. They have made their choice. If they want to change the fate of the Uchiha family, they must draw a clear line with Uchiha Fugaku.

"Bah...you got it for free!"

A young Uchiha clan member was the one who discovered his own body in the illusion world.

He himself has resentment towards Uchiha Fugaku and has admiration for Uchiha Mikoto.

A mouthful of thick phlegm fell on Uchiha Fugaku's body.

Just now, Uchiha Fugaku used Izanagi, and everyone saw it.

Senju Nawaki's actions seemed to have let Uchiha Fugaku go, and they could not cross the line.

But this does not affect them, they vent their dissatisfaction.

In their hearts, losing their eyes and losing the pride of Uchiha is the lightest punishment for Uchiha Fugaku.

Did Senju Nawaki really let Uchiha Fugaku go so easily?

Uchiha Fugaku, the harm he brought to the Uchiha clan cannot be forgiven.

All the Uchiha clan members followed Senju Nawaki's footsteps and swarmed into the Naka Shrine.

Uchiha Mikoto looked back at Uchiha Fugaku without any reluctance and followed the crowd.

Their union had long been deprived of blessings and was instead a mistake.

Uchiha Mikoto needs to find a new target.

Hokage Building.

conference room.

The top leaders of Konohagakure gathered here.

Without the Senju and Uchiha clans, the place seemed even more desolate.

The situation of sticking together in groups in the past has also decreased.

After this period of time, Hiruzen Sarutobi's integration sacrificed some interests, especially those taken from the Uchiha family. The Konohagakure high-level officials have tacitly accepted his status.

Now there are twists and turns again.

Danzo Shimura suggested, "Hiruzen, we must gather the strength of the entire village to monitor the Uchiha clan."

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned, his eyes no longer had the same brilliance as before, and there was a hint of contempt in his eyes as he looked at Danzo Shimura.

"And then? Keep an eye on the Uchiha clan? You've seen him in action. He can easily wipe out a village. Now we don't have anyone who can contain Uchiha Tajima."

No longer hiding it, he cursed directly.

Danzo Shimura was rarely lifeless, his face was gloomy. He recalled the Fire Release technique that seemed to be a teaching exercise, which could easily penetrate the entire Konohagakure and last for a long time. It was impossible for them to resist it.

This kind of strength has only appeared in Senju Nawaki.

"Then we will do nothing?" Danzo Shimura asked dissatisfiedly.

Even though he was extremely power-hungry, when Konohagakure was threatened, Danzo Shimura was still able to fight desperately.

Instead of being like Hiruzen Sarutobi, seeking a good reputation and compromising.

Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at him and scanned the crowd.

It fell on the faces of each family representative, lingering for a moment on the Nara clan leader, waiting for a response.

"Lord Hiruzen, the difference in power is too great. We just need to accept the other party's decision.

At the moment, it seems that Uchiha Tajima has no intention of attacking Konohagakure, or he has a bigger plan."

The Nara clan leader responded without offering a solution.

It seems like a lot of nonsense.

Representatives of other Konohagakure clans avoided Hiruzen Sarutobi's gaze.

At the moment, it seems that the other party has no intention of destroying Konohagakure, and there is no need for them to sacrifice their own family in order to protect Konohagakure.

After experiencing so many changes, Konohagakure is no longer the white moonlight in the eyes of the family, and no one is willing to sacrifice everything for Konohagakure.

Some people began to think about retreat and chose to leave Konohagakure.

Once Konohagakure is destroyed, they must preserve their strength, keep the family going, and wait for the opportunity to rebuild Konohagakure.

This is also another form of the will of fire, preserving the flame and rekindling it.

"Have the Hyūga clan use their Byakugan to monitor from a distance and alert everyone if there's any unusual movement."

A gleam flashed in Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes as he looked at Hyūga Hiashi.

Danzo Shimura nodded in agreement.

Representatives from other families also looked in the direction of Hyūga Hiashi.

Even if they cannot stop it, if they can predict the Uchiha family's actions in advance, they can escape in advance!

Give it to them and reduce Konohagakure's losses.

Hyūga Hiashi was stared at by everyone, and cold sweat kept streaming down his face.

The moment Senju Nawaki appeared, he felt the scrutiny of a superior. He also tried to peek at Senju Nawaki with his white eyes, but was stunned by a burst of white light.

His intuition told him not to get close to the Senju Nawaki.

not to mention.

The Uchiha family is a powerful family in the ninja world and is also a family of eye techniques. They have long been prepared for the prying of those with the Byakugan.

Just like the Naka Shrine, there is a circle of sealing formation on the outside, which prevents the Byakugan from peeking through.

Some sealing formations would give an early warning if they were spied on, and the Hyūga family would be in trouble.

The decision made by Konohagakure at this moment is to put him on the fire, sacrifice the Hyūga clan, protect Konohagakure, and protect other ninja families.

I wanted to raise an objection, but looking at everyone's eyes, I could only compromise in the end.

Helplessly said:

"I'll go and arrange the family affairs and send the chief elder of the clan to keep watch."

If the Uchiha clan had ill intentions in such an assignment, the Hyūga clan elder would never be able to return.

"Not enough!" Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head.

The others nodded.

They wanted more early warning, but they had no choice but to sacrifice the Hyūga clan.

One sentry post cannot meet the requirements at all.

"Adding the branch family and three elite Tokubetsu Jōnin, this is already the limit." Hyūga Hiashi gritted his teeth.

He stared at Hiruzen Sarutobi, anger already showing on his face.

He has already moved closer to Hiruzen Sarutobi, but this old guy doesn't care about the interests of the Hyūga clan at all. He is indeed not a reliable person.

He finally understood why the Sarutobi family ended up being deserted by everyone.

The others felt Hyūga Hiashi's determination and didn't want to push him too much.

"Hiashi, thank you for your contribution to Konohagakure, everything is for Konohagakure." Hiruzen Sarutobi had a formal smile on his face.

He knew in his heart that this decision would damage his image, but he had no choice.

When he saw Uchiha Tajima appear, his sixth sense also warned him.

This is the skill he cultivated while following the monkey clan.

He was able to foresee his own danger and tame his inner mind. I didn't expect that he could foresee his own danger so quickly.

"Everyone, disperse! If you are able, please help the villagers of Konohagakure."

Hiruzen Sarutobi waved his hand wearily.

According to the records of the ape tribe, this kind of throbbing may be a sign of one's own death.

He didn't expect it to come so soon, so he had to make more preparations and try his best to fight for a chance of survival.

Unlike when Orochimaru killed him, he faced death calmly.

All the family representatives left in an instant without stopping for a moment.

They need to prepare for the family. Every second and every minute is crucial and cannot be wasted.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's resignation from the position of Hokage symbolizes that the system in which the interests of the ninja village are supreme is being challenged and even collapsed.

It will never be like when Tobirama Senju was in power, when every ninja family could sacrifice themselves and their family for the village.

Another form of teaching by example.

Tobirama Senju disbanded the Senju clan in exchange for the cohesion of people's hearts.

Hiruzen Sarutobi constantly encroaches on the interests of the village to benefit the Sarutobi family, and people's hearts have long been divided.

In the entire Hokage Building conference room.

Only Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura were left.

"Hiruzen, your choice this time is completely different from the last time." Danzo Shimura's expression was complicated, and there was a hint of accusation in his words.

The reason why Tobirama Senju gave the position of Hokage to Hiruzen Sarutobi was because he was moved by Hiruzen Sarutobi's spirit of sacrificing himself to fight for a way to survive for them.

All the decisions just made were at the expense of the interests of the village and others in order to protect oneself.

"Danzo, people change, especially after becoming Hokage. I'm not as great as my teacher." Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head and sighed.

Recalling the person I used to be, I can never go back.

At that time, he thought he was omnipotent, but now he realizes his own powerlessness.

"Be prepared early. Big changes are about to happen in the ninja world. I hope we can still be friends."

Hiruzen Sarutobi persuaded with a hint of meaning.

Danzo Shimura's only remaining eye was filled with disappointment.

Disappointed with Hiruzen Sarutobi's actions and disappointed with Tobirama Senju's choice.

Recalling what Senju Nawaki said.

Perhaps from the very beginning, Hiruzen Sarutobi was pretending, and only at the most critical moment did his true face show up.

Now Konohagakure is facing the disaster of destruction. Without the guarantee of Tobirama Senju, this is Hiruzen Sarutobi's real choice.

"goodbye!"

Danzo Shimura sighed deeply.

If he were to make a choice again, he would still be Danzo Shimura.

It's not that people change, but that they become afraid. He is afraid of his own death, afraid of losing his power, and he is afraid of the demise of the Shimura clan.

This is also human nature.

Stop pestering and leave the Hokage Building.

Naka Shrine.

It is solemn and dignified, with rows of names of Uchiha ancestors hanging on the wall.

Senju Nawaki sat high up on the main seat of the clan leader and stomped his feet lightly, causing the plaques of all the Uchiha ancestors to fall to the ground.

The other Uchiha clan members stood respectfully on both sides and did not resist at all against such an insult to their ancestors, because this was Uchiha Tajima.

Not only does he possess great power, he is also the ancestor in their hearts.

"Lord Tajima, will the scene we saw definitely happen in the future?" The Uchiha family's elder asked respectfully with an uneasy look on his face.

The other Uchiha clan members looked at Senju Nawaki with eager eyes.

Senju Nawaki closed his eyes, felt everything around him, and finally found what he was looking for - White Zetsu.

There were several White Zetsu, hiding underground and within the complex, watching them.

A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Senju Nawaki plays the role of Madara Uchiha's father in order to lure out Madara Uchiha, the enemy who has been secretly lurking around him for a long time.

Naka Shrine, as the shrine and ancestral hall of the Uchiha family, Black Zetsu and Madara Uchiha have both set up presence here and will definitely leave spies.

White Zetsu is the best choice.

Just as he guessed, White Zetsu was always watching here.

Now that the audience is here, he is about to start his performance.

Enjoy the feeling of the old toad using prophecies to control people's hearts and the direction of the world.

"As Madara Uchiha's father, I do not interfere with his choices.

As the former head of the Uchiha clan, I will not interfere with your choice.

You already have the answer in your hearts. If things continue to develop as they are now, the final result will be exactly what you see."

Senju Nawaki pretended to be deep and did not give a definite answer.

Such words made the Uchiha clan believe that what they saw was the future.

Worried that White Zetsu hadn't discovered his previous attempt to impersonate Madara Uchiha's father, he brought it up again.

I believe this information is enough to attract Madara Uchiha's arrival.

As he had guessed, one of the White Zetsu left directly to deliver the message to Madara Uchiha.

Many Uchiha clan members could no longer remain calm, with fear, rage, and various emotions constantly emerging on their faces.

I kept asking questions and thinking in my mind, trying to find a way to avoid it.

Once you know where the future is going, the future will change.

They began to make all kinds of calculations in their minds.
