"Ah."
"In the past, during the Second and Third Shinobi World Wars, how many of those predecessors who defended Konoha's territory and dignity were under the age of eighteen and went to the front lines from humble positions?"
"At this moment, how could the Uchiha clan not dare to act?"
"My people would rather die standing than live on their knees!!"
"Would you two advisors dare to accompany me to the eastern border and set foot in the Misty Lands?"
"At that time, I will show you with your own eyes that the Uchiha clan doesn't make its name by wagging its tail and begging for mercy!!"
The moment the words fell, [Mirror of Still Water] quietly and unleashed its power, and the surging aura of blood instantly made the surrounding family heads breathe heavily and turn pale!
They had been living comfortably in Konoha for far too long and were simply unable to withstand such an impact.
"I'd rather die standing than live on my knees!"
Such bold words, such crazy pronouncements, shocked everyone present!
Such enlightenment is beyond their reach now.
Perhaps only the youthful faces of those fresh graduates from the Ninja Academy during wartime, eager to fight and defend the honor of Konoha, could truly match this description.
"Those who offend Konoha, no matter how far away, will be punished!!"
Another sentence, resounding and powerful.
"Kill anyone who sets foot on us, fight anyone who invades us."
"To deter all surrounding forces from threatening war, and to prevent those disgusting guys from coveting Konoha's bloodline limit."
"Let Konoha return to the pinnacle of the ninja world, becoming the leader of the Five Great Ninja Villages!"
"Instead of being like we are now, afraid of war, and eager to beg for mercy the moment the enemy sets foot on our shores!!"
"Advisors, do you understand this explanation?"
Chapter 179 We agreed to form a united front, but Danzo, you ran away!
[Kill anyone who sets foot on us, fight anyone who invades!]
madman!
madman!!
Such arrogant words did not come from Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Kage of the village, nor from Danzo Hyuga, the Dark Lord of the Hyuga clan, nor from the Hyuga clan burdened with shame, but from a boy who was only eleven years old!
And most importantly, this wasn't just a momentary burst of youthful rage, nor was it a fleeting, reckless statement; he truly possesses such ability!
In comparison, what are the Kaguya clan, who only know how to kill and fight?
No wonder they were utterly defeated and forced to flee by the Uchiha!
They only dared to provoke this clan when it suddenly encountered misfortune and fell into decline.
However, those lunatics overlooked one point: the Uchiha clan is not without people, nor are they spineless!
At least, there's still Uchiha Arakawa!!
During the brief pause, the breathing in the entire conference room became extremely shallow.
The clan heads and the high-ranking ninjas all stared intently at the young man in their field of vision, and for a moment, a magnificent scene appeared before their eyes.
Those present are the backbone of this village.
The youngest generation also experienced the Third Shinobi World War, and fought and dedicated themselves to this village, this land, and the glory in their hearts!
Especially the latter.
At that moment, all the elite Jonin clad in dark green ninja armor clenched their fists and their eyes blazed with fury.
Compared to those family heads who neglected their duties and prioritized the development of their clans, they were more concerned about the safety and image of Konoha.
Among them, Matt Kay was the most emotional, his thick, dark eyebrows practically poised to take flight.
If it weren't for the inappropriate occasion, he probably would have already roared out: "This is passion, this is youth! Drive out all the invaders from Kirigakure!"
Even the two Jonin who had been easily suppressed and trampled underfoot by Ara no Kōjin earlier now showed expressions of shame. Although they did not speak, their hatred for the enemy was still evident.
However, what puzzled Ara was that, apart from Kakashi Hatake, whom he had had some contact with, he did not recognize any of the Jonin sitting there.
It's understandable that Shirakumo Hayama and Tekuno are not included, as they are stationed on the northern border year-round, guarding the area bordering the Land of Earth.
However, Ara had interacted with quite a few Jonin during those seventy-two missions. Some even came to his aid on the night of the clan massacre.
But now, there isn't a single person present!
Were they all out on a mission?
That's far too much of a coincidence.
This stagnant environment was soon disrupted.
"Although the Kurama clan has declined and lacks talent, they are still willing to do their part for Konoha and go to the border of Kirigakure to resist foreign invasion!"
A resounding statement was the first thing to be made.
It is a cloud of saddle horses.
Just as he had promised that day, if Uchiha Ara could return alive, his clan would follow the Uchiha's lead.
Such an attitude, such a stance of shouldering all pressure and breaking the silence, truly stirred Huang's heart.
Over there by Kurama Yakumo.
I should pay more attention to it myself.
However, under Huang's deliberate promotion and manipulation, it was not just Kurama and Murakumo who were making their own clapping.
"In recent years, Kirigakure has indeed gone too far!"
A slightly hoarse voice then rang out, originating from the front of the hall.
Those who were able to sit at the front were all figures of great importance in Konoha!
just.
What Huang didn't expect was that the second person to speak would be him!
"If you continue to back down and let things slide, will you only remember that you were once ninjas when the invaders from the Land of Water are at the gates of Konoha, when your own family and clansmen have nowhere to escape and nowhere to hide?"
"Or are you suggesting that we push the Hokage to the enemy in exchange for temporary peace?"
'Boom! '
Just as he was speaking with indignation, a dull, blunt sound suddenly rang out!
Yes.
This statement did not come from Yamanaka Inoichi, whose behavior was somewhat illogical, nor from Nara Shikaku, known as the 'Brain of Konoha,' nor from Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was still silently smoking his pipe, but from:
Danzo Shimura! !
At this moment, his face was gloomy, and his single eye revealed a similar sense of disappointment and shared hatred with Uchiha Ara.
The familiar voice also made the Third Hokage, who was smoking a tobacco, pause for a moment.
Clearly, Hiruzen Sarutobi hadn't expected that this old fox, who usually acted like he didn't care about anything, would be the first to speak up at this moment!
Furthermore, their words were directed at Uchiha Arashi, whom they considered a thorn in their side!
Suddenly, a dark glint appeared in his eyes.
'And, are you going to push me to the side of an enemy?'
'Ah. '
'Isn't this exactly what you've been thinking?'
'For this position.'
However, it's ultimately not something they can say.
After all, on the surface, it seems like the other person cares about them!
Danzo's words brought clarity to the chaotic and hesitant scene.
His status is incomparable to that of the current Kurama clan or the Kurama people.
It's important to know that the Kurama clan was historically a powerful family, and at its peak, they were even able to rival the Uchiha clan in the art of genjutsu.
However, the Kurama clan nowadays can't even find a few decent Jonin within its ranks.
Kurama Yakumo, the only one who awakened a special bloodline limit as the hope for the clan's revival, is said to be sickly and will probably never become a qualified ninja in his lifetime.
It can be said that the Kurama clan's desire for revival is hopeless in this generation!
Therefore, many attendees simply listened to Kurama Murakumo's remarks, letting them go in one ear and out the other, without taking them to heart, and they certainly did not become any turning point in the situation.
However, Shimura Danzo was different!
He was not only the apprentice of the Second Tobirama, but also commanded a special force that was on par with the Anbu. Although this force had suffered irreparable damage in recent times, news of them had become rare.
However, the clan heads and Jonin present were more concerned about the other party's methods and attitude!
This seemingly frail old man, who always had a gloomy face, had a personality completely opposite to that of the current Hokage.
He is ruthless and fierce, and his consistent tactic is to strike back against foreign enemies with lightning speed!
Moreover, other ordinary residents and younger generation ninjas may not be aware that Konoha's victory in the previous wars was due not only to the Third Hokage's wise leadership and the united and valiant efforts of all Konoha ninjas, but also to a crucial, often unspoken, factor: the darkness hidden deep within the battlefield.
Danzo Shimura! !
If it weren't for his ruthless methods and keen local observation, Konoha would have had to pay a price to achieve a final victory.
However, we live in a peaceful era, and such ruthlessness and sharpness are mostly unnecessary.
Therefore, the old man naturally disappeared into the background.
Even now, he rarely appears in public, leaving all matters to the Third Hokage and the two Konoha advisors to handle and decide.
He only appears when major events concerning the future of Konoha occur, and even then, he rarely speaks.
Today is an exception.
"The flame of Konoha will never be extinguished!"
