Commander Uchiha, we respect and love you!

Chapter 204 Hiruzen Sarutobi's Helplessness

Ultimately, he was framed by Uchiha Kazuto's schemes and had his head chopped off. Having learned from his own experience in a parallel world, whether it was real or not, he no longer had the courage to truly trust Uchiha Kazuto.

He only planned to wait for Uchiha Kazuto to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan, then activate the backup plan he had left on Uchiha Kazuto to kill him and take those eyes.

In short, although he has not yet awakened, Hiruzen Sarutobi does not want to hand over Uchiha Kazuto in order to obtain the godhood he may acquire in the future.

But now it seems that if we don't hand over Uchiha Kazuto and let these greedy, damned guys see what's going on, he probably won't leave alive.

Although Hiruzen Sarutobi has some strength, he is still not capable of suppressing the Kage of the other four villages on his own, unless Hashirama Senju is resurrected.

However, even so, Hiruzen Sarutobi still wanted to make a final stand.

"You should know that no two leaves in the world are the same, and even in parallel worlds they are not necessarily the same. I think that Uchiha Kazuto, who was able to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan, can only exist in other worlds. Uchiha Kazuto in our world is not capable of awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan!"

"According to our investigation, Uchiha Kazuto is a genin, the kind who will never have the chance to become a chunin in his life. If nothing unexpected happens, he will stay in Konoha for the rest of his life and will basically not encounter any crises, so he will never have the opportunity to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan."

Hiruzen Sarutobi tried his best to explain, wanting to dispel everyone's desire to see Uchiha Kazuto and find out what was going on. As for whether the so-called parallel world might be different, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't know, but that didn't stop him from talking nonsense. As long as it sounded reasonable, that was about right.

Unfortunately, the people present didn't buy it at all and just stared at him.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's appearance made them increasingly suspicious that Uchiha Kazuto might have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan and had been secretly disposed of by Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Although this guess seems very far-fetched, what if it is?
This is no small matter. For ordinary things, it's fine if you say so, but for this kind of thing, it's not something you can just say is gone and then it's gone. I could say I don't have nuclear weapons at home.

Although no one spoke, everyone present had already unanimously decided that if Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't give them a satisfactory explanation, they would take matters into their own hands and seize the loot themselves. They could also take this opportunity to unite and completely divide up Konoha's share of the mission.

"Didn't you say it's a parallel world? If it's a parallel world, how could it be different?"

The Kage of Sunagakure shook his head and looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Looking at everyone's expressions, Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head helplessly. It seemed he had failed. He had originally wanted to propose a plan to share the Great Toad Sage's Sage Techniques, but now it seemed that if he didn't resolve the Uchiha Kazuto issue first, forget about Sage Techniques; even the survival of Konoha was in question.

Moreover, the current situation means that even if Uchiha and Touma awaken their invincible Mangekyou Sharingan, Konoha will not be able to control it on their own. It's all the Great Toad Sage's fault for saying he wanted to make this public and unite the power of the entire ninja world.

Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head helplessly and could only have someone summon Uchiha Kazuto.

Seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi back down, the others felt a pang of disappointment. They had truly hoped that Hiruzen would remain defiant to the end, for that would have meant the destruction of Konoha. For these ninjas, the notion that Konoha was the village that had established its system of ninja villages and therefore belonged to Konoha was irrelevant. If they saw Konoha weakened, they would rush in and take a huge bite out of it.

They have no morality or sentiment in their hearts, only pure self-interest.

Soon, Uchiha Kazuto was summoned. After some testing, everyone was disappointed to find that Uchiha Kazuto had indeed not awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, and there were no signs that his eyes had been gouged out. Everything was perfectly normal.

However, they did discover the various backup plans that Hiruzen Sarutobi and his group had left on Kazuto Uchiha.

Seeing these backup plans, they immediately understood Hiruzen Sarutobi's intentions. This guy treated Uchiha Kazuto like an animal. As soon as Uchiha Kazuto's Mangekyou Sharingan awakened, he would kill Uchiha Kazuto and take his eyes.

How wicked! How wicked! How dark!
Under their combined pressure, the methods used on Uchiha Kazuto were removed, and a new restriction was added. This new restriction could only kill Uchiha Kazuto if everyone agreed, and it could also directly destroy Uchiha Kazuto's eyes.

Although Uchiha Kazuto hasn't awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan yet, what about in the future? What if he does awaken it later?

They were unwilling to gamble on the possibility that Uchiha and Tou wouldn't awaken and bring disaster to their world.

Unfortunately, Uchiha Kazuto's eyes are probably unique in the entire ninja universe; there is no way there could be another pair like them.

Even if Uchiha Kazuto from this world became a transmigrator, he might not awaken a pair of Mangekyou Sharingan with perfect mechanics and stats. He would likely only awaken other abilities, or even a pair of Mangekyou Sharingan with ridiculously weak eye techniques. Furthermore, because he has no siblings, he would never be able to develop the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.

Although Uchiha Kazuto doesn't have the Eternal Eye, he can automatically recover his eye power, so whether he has the Eternal Eye or not is irrelevant to him.

After resolving the matter between Uchiha and Tou.

The atmosphere in the meeting room immediately became harmonious.

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi also revealed the Great Toad Sage's decision. After learning that the Great Toad Sage not only extracted his memories but also planned to reveal the secrets of the sacred land and the methods for cultivating Sage Techniques, he understood that the Great Toad Sage was also planning to do so.

Everyone present fell silent. At this moment, they truly saw the Great Toad Sage's determination. If they had only planned to go home and figure out a solution themselves when they learned of the threat from the parallel world, and that the alliance was something they still needed to consider, then now they really needed to consider the alliance.

After all, if the Great Toad Sage hadn't revealed the methods for cultivating Sage Techniques, and had only allowed them to form an alliance...
