Konoha: I, Ninja War Sakura, rely entirely on skills!

Chapter 182: Masters One After Another
"Ugh……"

Sakura looked at the Senju Tobirama beside her and felt a little strange. Wasn't he quite happy just now?
Why are you sighing now?

"As expected, all Uchiha people are like this."

Senju Tobirama seemed a little bored.

Although he was indeed unhappy with the Uchiha, after the joy in his heart wore off, he began to think about the consequences of the Uchiha's demise.

It has to be said that as the strongest opponent of the Senju clan in its thousand-year history, the Uchiha clan’s martial arts power is unquestionable.

It is also for this reason that Uchiha Kagami is among the disciples of Senju Tobirama.

Uchiha Kagami is different from other members of the Uchiha clan. In Senju Tobirama's vision, Uchiha Kagami will become the patriarch of the Uchiha clan with his support.

But it's a pity...

Not only did Senju Tobirama himself sacrifice himself, but even Uchiha Kagami died in the war not long after.

Now that even the Uchiha clan has become history, it seems a bit boring to think about it.

If the Uchiha clan is exterminated, Konoha's strength will drop to its historical low.

"Sakura."

"Ok?"

"I believe that with Sarutobi's trust in you, you should also know the reason why the Uchiha clan was exterminated. If you were the Hokage or the head of the Uchiha clan, what would you choose?"

Senju Tobirama looked at the little girl who summoned him.

The other party has mastered Xiao Gang's supernatural powers, Monkey's psychic communication, and the inheritance of the Wet Bone Forest. Now Monkey is willing to hand over the Impure World Reincarnation to this girl.

The other party is the Monkey’s most trusted confidant, and even his successor.

Sakura glanced at the man beside her, thought for a moment, and spoke slowly:
"This problem is easy to solve."

"If I were the Hokage, I would win over some and suppress others."

"Those who jump the most happily will be accused of a crime and beheaded in the streets of Konoha as a warning to others. Those who behave themselves will be given prestige and power to appease their hearts."

Senju Tobirama nodded after hearing Sakura's answer, and promised her a huge reward as an example to her.

But the prerequisite for all this is that one's own strength must be strong enough and able to suppress the remaining Uchiha.

Sakura's answer was not yet finished. A sharp look flashed in her eyes and she continued:
"If I were the head of the Uchiha clan."

"With the Konoha high-ranking officials constantly suppressing us and the people in the clan excited and wanting a coup..."

When Senju Tobirama heard this, his eyes turned slightly cold.

Does Sakura mean that the Uchiha were already preparing for a rebellion?

At some point, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Jiraiya appeared behind the two of them.

There was a person standing behind them...

Uchiha Itachi.

— Time goes back seven hours —

“Do you want me to meet you?”

"I didn't expect that I would run into someone like you when I went out to collect materials."

Jiraiya's words reached Uchiha Itachi's ears, which made Uchiha Itachi's mind a little broken.

"Stop, stop."

"I am one of my own."

"I'm undercover, I want to see Sarutobi Hiruzen!"

"I am an undercover agent planted by the Hokage in the Akatsuki organization!"

Uchiha Itachi knew very well that Jiraiya was different from others. He was a disciple of Sarutobi Hiruzen. Although he and Orochimaru were from the same school, there were essential differences between the two.

Moreover, it would be a pipe dream for him to escape from Jiraiya in his current state.

Rather than being captured by the other party and thrown into the torture department to suffer punishment, it would be better to meet Sarutobi Hiruzen directly through the other party.

Jiraiya looked at Uchiha Itachi who could fall to the ground at any time, and was not moved by Uchiha Itachi's words.

"If what you said is true, seal your chakra now and I will take you to see the Hokage."

Uchiha Itachi couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this. Does he still have chakra now?

-

The arrival of Sarutobi Hiruzen and the other two naturally did not escape the notice of Senju Tobirama and Sakura, but Sakura was a little surprised that Uchiha Itachi was also present.

But even so she did not stop talking.

"If I were the current Uchiha clan leader, I would be facing such a situation of internal and external troubles."

A hint of coldness appeared at the corners of Sakura's mouth.

"Immediately send people to other ninja villages, Iwagakure, Kumogakure, and Sandgakure will do."

As soon as these words were spoken, Senju Tobirama frowned.

Are you trying to take people away?

Compared to Tobirama Senju, Sarutobi Hiruzen had a headache.

He is very familiar with this pink-haired girl.

This is definitely not running away!

If she really contacts the next club, then Sakura will no longer be Sakura.

"What are you sending them for?"

Senju Tobirama asked expressionlessly.

"doing what?"

"Of course, we use the Sharingan to release the tailed beasts and start a Tailed Beast Rebellion!"

Sakura looked at Senju Tobirama as if he was an idiot.

???

Senju Tobirama was stunned for a moment, a little confused, but he soon understood.

That's it!

really.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed in his heart.

My little ancestor, it’s fine for you to say these words in front of me, but how can you say them in front of the second generation?
What's more, there is that madman Uchiha Itachi next to him.

"Why did you release the tailed beasts?"

Compared to Tobirama Senju and Hiruzen Sarutobi who already knew Sakura's thoughts, Jiraiya was completely confused.

And Uchiha Itachi just listened in silence.

“When internal conflicts cannot be resolved, the best way is to introduce external conflicts.”

"Since the conflict between the Uchiha and the higher-ups cannot be resolved, how can I, as the head of the Uchiha clan, wait for death?"

"Directly detonate the tailed beasts of other villages, and 'accidentally' leave traces of Konoha behind."

"The top brass has no time to consider the Uchiha, so this will buy the family some breathing time."

Sakura's words were enough to shock Jiraiya.

"But in this case, Sakura, have you considered the consequences?!"

"It will cause war!"

Jiraiya retorted almost without even thinking.

"how?"

"Without this incident, would the war have never started?"

This sentence left Jiraiya speechless.

Sakura doesn't care about the ideas of Jiraiya, an idealist. She admits that Jiraiya is a very good teacher, but sometimes too naive.

"Detonating the tailed beasts of other villages can not only weaken the opponent's combat power, but also quickly suppress internal conflicts to the minimum!"

"And then immediately deploy personnel to constantly provoke conflicts on the border and start a war."

"Under the threat of external enemies, as long as the top brass and the Uchiha are not crazy, they should put aside the current conflict."

"In this way, the crisis of the Uchiha will be solved. No matter how serious the casualties of the war are, with the strength of Konoha and the Uchiha, the Uchiha will never be directly destroyed like it is now."

"And I can use this war to send all the voices in the tribe that oppose me to the battlefield!"

Sakura turned to look at Sarutobi Hiruzen again and said meaningfully:

"If the Hokage had a keen enough sense of smell, he should have understood everything that I, the head of the Uchiha clan, did."

"He also sent his political enemy, the clown who was intent on constantly provoking the higher-ups and the Uchiha, to the battlefield, where he died gloriously."

"In this way, even if we can't completely resolve the conflict between the top management and the Uchiha, at least we can stabilize it for ten years!"

"As for what happens next, we'll have to adapt to the situation as it arises."

Sakura raised an eyebrow as she looked at Tobirama Senju who was deep in thought beside her.

"The above is the solution I would use if I were the head of the Uchiha clan."

Senju Tobirama touched his chin and once again looked at the pink-haired girl beside him.

He originally thought that the other party's talent in ninja was only enough to impress him.

Unexpectedly, his grasp of the situation and political developments was also surprising.

This pink-haired girl really made him happy.

"If we want to detonate the tailed beasts of other villages, I'm afraid we need an expert to go. At that time, who else among the Uchiha clan could take on this important task besides the clan leader himself?"

Senju Tobirama subconsciously thought about the feasibility of this plan.

Although it was just a concept, he was a meticulous person and would not allow any mistakes.

"Yes, there are two more. Isn't one of them right here?"

Sakura looked at Uchiha Itachi, who was silent and trembling slightly.

I see……

I see……

It turned out to be like this...

Dad, Mom, Quan...

I, I, I...

At this moment, Uchiha Itachi lowered his head slightly and clenched his teeth.

Why, why should he know this method.

Doesn't this prove that everything he did was wrong?
Doesn't this prove that everything he does is just like a clown?
Why are you telling me?
Why tell me!
Can't you just let me die quietly on Sasuke? !
Senju Tobirama followed Sakura's gaze.

Is this the Senju Itachi who destroyed the Uchiha?

Uh, that’s not right, Uchiha Itachi.

"Besides him, there is also Uchiha Shisui. Both of them are Uchiha who have opened the Mangekyō."

"With the abilities of both of them, detonating the tailed beast is definitely not a difficult task."

Sakura looked at Uchiha Itachi, and a hint of imperceptible mockery flashed across her eyes.

“If you do things directly and without thinking about how to solve the problem, you will just get rid of the person who caused the problem.”

“The reason why people are called human beings is because they have compassion.”

"Even the most evil criminals have a soft side to them."

Senju Tobirama heard this and subconsciously refuted:
"We are ninjas."

"Ninjas are people too."

Sakura directly interrupted Senju Tobirama's words.

"Would you kill a baby in its cradle?"

Sakura's words silenced Senju Tobirama.

Jiraiya, however, gave Sakura a surprised look.

He thought Sakura was a ruthless person who would do anything to achieve her goals, but he didn't expect...

"If you don't remove the grass at its roots..." The voice trembled, it was Uchiha Itachi.

He wanted to prove that what he did was right.

He did nothing wrong!
He is right!

"Then why did Sasuke survive?"

!!!

The calm yet brief words were like a bolt of thunder that instantly struck Uchiha Itachi's crown!
Uchiha Itachi suddenly raised his head and looked at Sakura with horror, whose face was calm.

Sasuke...

Sasuke...

Why did Sasuke survive?
it's me!

it's me!

It's my selfishness!
I? !

who I am? !

where am I? !

What on earth did I do?!

father!

mother!

Did I really do it right?!

What on earth did I do?!

Uchiha Itachi couldn't help but take a step back. His usually calm expression was now filled with fear, panic, regret, and fear...

"You... mean... am I wrong?"

Uchiha Itachi looked at the calm pink-haired boy with trembling eyes. The other person's face did not look like that of a thirteen-year-old boy at all.

Calm indifference.

"This is also the inexplicable feeling I had when I first learned the truth about the Uchiha."

Sakura looked at Uchiha Itachi, and her words were like sharp knives piercing into Uchiha Itachi's heart.

"It would be fine if you were a truly evil person. After all, the devil's actions need no explanation."

"But you actually slaughtered your father, mother, lover, and tribe members all for the so-called 'peace'."

"Have you thought of any other options?"

"Have you ever fought for your parents' lives?"

"Did you ask for help?"

"Did you seek help from the old man with an open heart?"

"If you really kill everyone, including Sasuke, I will actually praise you for killing your own relatives for the sake of justice."

"You didn't. You actually killed everyone under the pretext of 'peace' in exchange for Sasuke's safety."

"Thousands of lives of the Uchiha clan are all your tokens of loyalty."

"In exchange for Sasuke's safety."

Every time Sakura said something, Uchiha Itachi couldn't help but take a step back.

Sarutobi Hiruzen smoked silently. As a witness of the incident back then, although he was unable to stop it, he was the Hokage and he also had considerable responsibility.

Uchiha Itachi wanted to refute, he wanted to say, he found it, he found someone!

He found... Danzo.

The words came to his lips, but he couldn't say the word Danzo.

Why do I want to go look for Danzo?

All the energy in his body seemed to be drained at this moment, and Uchiha Itachi knelt directly on the ground. His desire to survive was not strong to begin with, and now after being verbally attacked, he was even more determined to die.

"Oh, it's exactly the same as your behavior."

"If you can't solve the problem, solve the person who caused the problem."

"Only this time I'll solve it myself."

Looking at Uchiha Itachi, who looked deadly, Sakura spoke coldly.

"Ah……"

Uchiha Itachi, kneeling on the ground, looked up at Sakura and smiled bitterly.

"You won't let me live, and you won't let me die..."

Senju Tobirama watched this scene with a calm look.

The name of Thousand Hands was taken back by him.

This Uchiha Itachi is definitely another Uchiha psychopath.

"Who said I won't let you die?"

"If you like dying so much, then go ahead and die. Don't dirty my eyes."

"If death could solve everything, then mankind would have disappeared long ago, instead of the wars we have now."

Sakura's sarcastic words left Uchiha Itachi speechless.

Jiraiya couldn't help but retort when he heard this.

"Isn't that what you did?"

Sakura glared at Jiraiya.

"Without me there would be no war?"

"Can you use your brain a little more?"

Jiraiya shut up again.

"Oh, tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Uchiha Itachi looked miserably at Sakura in front of him.

At this point, he no longer wanted to say anything more.

Right and wrong all depend on him alone.

"Since you keep saying it's for peace."

"Is your 'peace' Sasuke, or Konoha?"

Sakura's words silenced Uchiha Itachi and also made Sarutobi Hiruzen look at Uchiha Itachi.

Father, like son.

When Uchiha Itachi asked him to take good care of Sasuke, he just thought that the other party was a lunatic who cared about Konoha.

Now it seems that this person is a perverted brother-con.

"Yes……"

"Yes……"

"Sasuke..."

The difficult words came out of Uchiha Itachi's mouth, which made him lose the excuse of peace.

"Sasuke is doing well now. He works hard to become stronger and study hard so that he can kill you with his own hands one day."

“But he didn’t wallow in hatred.”

“He has his own life, too.”

"Before he kills you, you should atone for your sin with this life."

"Tell me everything you know."

Today, the ninja world is like a mess.

Sakura needs information about the Akatsuki organization, their personnel arrangements, and follow-up plans.

Listening to Sakura's question, Uchiha Itachi spoke slowly:
"I wasn't the only one who was there during the night of the genocide."

"There was someone else that night."

"His name is... Uchiha Obito."

As soon as this name came out, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Jiraiya narrowed their eyes.

"In addition, he was also the murderer who caused the death of the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze during the Nine-Tails Rebellion thirteen years ago."

???

!!!

After these words were spoken, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Jiraiya instantly lost their composure.

Uchiha Obito is the student of Minato Namikaze!

This guy actually dared to kill his master? !
"Uchiha Obito is Minato's disciple!"

Jiraiya couldn't help but yell out in anger.

Senju Tobirama's expression changed when he heard this.

Are there any experts?

The Uchiha clan really deserved to die.

"Yes, is there any connection between the two?"

Uchiha Itachi looked up at Jiraiya.

"..."

Jiraiya was so angry when he saw Uchiha Itachi's dead look that his teeth were itching.

"He had a great influence on the original Akatsuki organization."

"However, with his identity exposed, he no longer has much say."

"He was being suppressed by the leader of Akatsuki, Pain."

Another name came out of Uchiha Itachi's mouth.

What followed was the information that Pain possessed the eyes of the Sage of Six Paths, the Rinnegan.

Sakura also listened patiently.

When Jiraiya heard this, he couldn't help but get angry again.

"Reincarnation Eye?"

"Those are Nagato's eyes!"

Uchiha Itachi did not know Nagato mentioned by Jiraiya, he only knew Pain.

"Nagato was one of the three disciples I accepted during those three years in the Rain Country."

Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen looking at him in confusion, Jiraiya suppressed his uneasiness and slowly explained everything.

"what?!"

"Jiraiya!"

"You accepted the holder of the Rinnegan as your disciple, but you didn't bring him back to Konoha?!"

"Am I being too indulgent with you?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen listened to Jiraiya explaining everything, his face so dark that water seemed to drip out.

Senju Tobirama glanced at Jiraiya.

There are also masters.

"Well, old man, listen to my explanation. I heard the prophecy of the Great Toad Sage, which predicted that my disciple would save the ninja world."

"That person must be Nagato!"

It would have been better if Jiraiya didn't explain. As soon as he did, Sarutobi Hiruzen's face became even darker.

"The prerequisite for saving the ninja world is to destroy Konoha, right?"
