Commander Uchiha, we respect and love you!

Chapter 195 This is indeed something Danzo would do...

"I see. That does seem like something Danzo would do."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded. Although Jiraiya said it seemed to be a rumor targeting Danzo Shimura, based on his understanding of Danzo, the beast might actually do such a thing, because Danzo was that kind of person, a beast.

"This...then teacher, could Danzo really be plotting something with Fugaku Uchiha?"

Jiraiya was startled when he saw Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression. He had only seen Danzo Shimura, remembered something, and was simply telling his teacher about it, but now...

"I don't know. Anyway, let's investigate this Uchiha Kazuto you mentioned first."

Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head. He really didn't want to believe that his former comrade would actually try to use underhanded tactics to harm him. But he had no evidence at the moment, so he could only remain vigilant and wait until he had figured out what was going on with Uchiha Kazuto before worrying about anything else.

Information about Uchiha Kazuto is not hard to find. After all, in this world, no, even in the world where Uchiha Kazuto exists, at this point in time, he is really just an ordinary person who has not awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan. No, let alone the Mangekyou Sharingan, he is just an ordinary person who has not even awakened a single tomoe Sharingan.

What's so difficult about investigating the information of an ordinary person?
Soon, information on Uchiha Kazuto appeared in the hands of Hiruzen Sarutobi and Jiraiya.

They were looking at the document.

Orphaned, of average talent, and without awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan, he does have some connection to Uchiha Setsuna, but within the Uchiha clan, almost everyone is connected in some way, so this doesn't prove anything.

"Masaka, no way, it can't really be a parallel world!"

Jiraiya looked at the information. According to the memories he obtained from the Great Toad Sage, if it wasn't a parallel world but the future of their world, then Uchiha Kazuto should have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan by now.

"No, Jiraiya, don't panic. Didn't you say that after Uchiha Kazuto awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, he didn't choose to expose himself but was instead hidden by Uchiha Setsuna? If that's the case, how could we have investigated it so easily?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head, trying to comfort Jiraiya.

“That’s right, teacher. Let’s get started now. According to the Great Toad Sage’s prophecy and speculation, Uchiha Kazuto’s power was not strong at the beginning, and his own strength was not that great. What was truly powerful was his eye technique. His eye technique could greatly enhance the intelligence and power of others, as well as restrain those who belonged to his faction!”

"Now is when Uchiha Kazuto is at his weakest. As long as we gather our strength and try to take action against him now, if he has awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, I don't believe he can continue to hide! If he really chooses to hide and not fight back, then he might as well die!"

Jiraiya clenched his fist and said with a resolute expression, "For a ninja with the Will of Fire, this kind of monster that might destroy Konoha in the future is something I cannot allow to exist. It can be said that if I had known back in the Land of Rain that Nagato and the others would pose a serious threat to Konoha in the future..."

He figured he wouldn't teach Nagato and the others, but would instead stab those three brats to death and take Nagato's eyes.

Hearing Jiraiya's words, Hiruzen Sarutobi pondered for a moment and nodded. "Go and call the Great Toad Sage over as well. We must be fully prepared."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "Now that we know that Uchiha Kazuto might pose a threat to the village, and might even cut off his head, we can't let him continue to live. As for the claim that Uchiha Kazuto hasn't done anything yet, and that it's all just the Great Toad Sage's word, that's irrelevant."

Even if the Great Toad Sage is senile and keeps talking nonsense, so what? He's just a useless marginal figure from the Uchiha clan. He's dead, so what? Who cares?

Mt. Miaomu.

"It's still the same, old toad. This is all the information I can sense. Uchiha Kazuto is perfectly fine. He's just an ordinary person. Forget about the Mangekyou Sharingan, he hasn't even awakened a one-tomoe Sharingan. His parents are long dead, and he has no connection with Uchiha Setsuna!"

"I even specifically checked the situation of Shimura Danzo and Uchiha Fugaku, as you mentioned. They are perfectly normal and have no connection with each other!"

The White Snake Sage said in an awkward tone, "There are only two possibilities now. One is that the Great Toad Sage really obtained the memories of a parallel world. This is something the White Snake Sage cannot accept. Now that the Otsutsuki brothers are dead, how can they possibly contend with a powerful force that can suppress the entire ninja world?"

Another point is that Uchiha Kazuto lied. His statements to the public were all made up. He didn't awaken because of a strong shock after his parents' death, but for other reasons.

Compared to the former, the White Snake Sage preferred and only wanted to believe in the latter possibility, since the latter possibility would end as long as the Uchiha Kazuto of the past was killed.

After all, the Great Toad Sage obtained the memories of that catastrophe. It was not fate that caused it, but because of the existence of Uchiha Kazuto, who forcibly shattered fate, defied the heavens, and created a new future. This was not a historical inevitability, but a one-in-a-million chance. This kind of fate changed by chance can be modified.

Their world has no concept of divine laws or world will; it is a pure, natural, and wild normal world.

However, besides these two reasons, there is another one...

"Hey!"

The Great Toad Sage sighed helplessly, a deep sorrow and despair welling up in his heart, making him feel extremely uncomfortable. Unlike the White Snake Sage and others who were unwilling to accept that tragic future, the Great Toad Sage tended to believe in the existence of parallel worlds.

No one understood the power of that terrifying force better than him. If he hadn't seized the opportunity to commit suicide in that world, his ability to foresee the future would have been completely cracked sooner or later through continuous experimentation.

Just then, Jiraiya returned.

"Great Toad Sage, White Snake Sage, we have found Uchiha Kazuto, now..."
