I unleashed a Hundred Demons Parade in the Ninja World

【no,】

That's not how it works!

He wasn't troubled by his own words.

The moment their eyes met, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately made up his mind.

Danzo's slightly trembling eyes, his tense body, his fingers gripping his cane tightly!

This is like being on high alert.

This is the same state that was presented when facing the Cloud Village pursuers decades ago!

It wasn't because I was hurt by my own words.

[It's because he was scared!]

[Having anticipated the oppressive force emanating from Uchiha Ara, he was already filled with fear and began to eagerly desire to eliminate him with his own hands!]

[And this clear sense of urgency is ten times, a hundred times, more intense than when I first learned about Uchiha Shisui's eye abilities!!]

[To be known in advance.]

What kind of power is that?

"Say yes, Hiruzen."

"As you know, the Root has suffered heavy losses over the years in order to eliminate the threat from Konoha. Only one-tenth of the personnel that can be mobilized remain."

"Otherwise, Danzo wouldn't have asked you to lend him people, given his personality."

"Moreover, the threat posed by Uchiha Ara is indeed imminent. The Mangekyou Sharingan—you and I both know what kind of evil power it is!"

"Now is the best time to eliminate him before he returns to Konoha and retreats to that remote corner to recuperate."

As the conversation progressed, Koharu Utatane's face gradually became distorted and ferocious.

Even though she had just harbored resentment and great dissatisfaction towards Danzo, that old man.

However, when facing the same enemy, when facing the Uchiha with the Mangekyou Sharingan, even the former could bow down to Hiruzen, so what's wrong with temporarily suppressing my little emotions?

"No."

However, after taking a deep drag on his tobacco, the white-haired old man sitting in the main seat uttered his decision to reject the idea in a very concise manner.

"Hiruzen!"

"Danzo has already bowed his head, so don't act rashly anymore."

"The current threat is Uchiha Ara!"

Upon hearing this answer, Koharu, who was in the same dormitory, exclaimed in surprise.

The dissatisfaction in his voice was clearly discernible.

"Yes, Hiruzen."

"This may be the last chance to eliminate that threat from outside. If we miss it, the next battlefield will likely be in Konoha!"

"The price would be too high, and no one wants to see that. You should think this through."

Even Mitokado Enoki, who had remained silent until then, offered this advice in a low, somber voice.

Both of them assumed that Hiruzen Sarutobi still harbored resentment and dissatisfaction with Danzo's previous actions, which was why he chose to refuse.

However, the one-eyed old man, who was the person involved, unusually refrained from saying anything impulsive and simply watched his old rival quietly in his field of vision.

He understands it very clearly now, he really understands it.

I've been wrong all along. The reason why my actions against Uchiha Ara have consistently failed is not because of Hiruzen Sarutobi's mercy and indulgence.

Rather, it was because he had never placed it in a position where he could look at it on equal terms, and his level of importance was not even as high as that of the deceased Uchiha Shisui.

You should know that when that little guy first came into his sight, he was just a weak ant that couldn't even withstand two ordinary Root members!

However, in just six short years, that guy has grown into a terrifying being that makes everyone tremble with fear!

Once, twice, three times, four times, five times!

The Third Hokage listed at least five elimination plans!

These events were all initiated by myself, yet all these schemes ended in failure.

If Hiruzen were truly merciful, then it would be truly unbelievable that the above actions could be carried out even once or twice.

How could they possibly be implemented one by one?

The problem ultimately lies within itself.

Even when a lion hunts a rabbit, it still uses its full strength.

He only just realized this truth now.

Moreover, it is certain that this old rival will not allow the existing hidden dangers to continue to exist!

Therefore,

Having abandoned mercy and torn open your mask, have you decided to take matters into your own hands?

"The Anbu will absolutely not carry out a purge mission until it is confirmed that there are internal ninjas who have betrayed the village."

Under the watchful eyes of his former contemporaries, Hiruzen Sarutobi finally slowly descended in response.

A veto is a matter of principle.

If it has been confirmed at this moment that Uchiha Ara has evidence to instigate a rebellion, then he will certainly agree to such an action. Even without Danzo mentioning it, he himself will spare no effort to promote the implementation of the elimination plan.

However, over the years, the Uchiha clan has maintained a secluded lifestyle and has never pursued power or status in the slightest.

All they saw was that Ara himself harbored a huge and uncontrollable hidden danger, but there was no indication that the Uchiha clan, under his leadership, was plotting a rebellion or attempting to seize more power in the village.

If we suppress or arbitrarily eliminate someone simply because their strength surpasses that of the previous generation, then once the matter is exposed, it will be a devastating blow to the reputation and existence of the entire Konoha.

After all, the power you command was originally composed of dozens of families, large and small, and was not the domain of any one person.

The consequence of reckless behavior was that Konoha fell apart!

However, this answer clearly did not meet the expectations of the three people present.

"Hiruzen, I know your concerns, but don't be too rigid in your adherence to the rules."

"Danzo's Root and Anbu combined are enough to silently eliminate Uchiha Ara without a sound leaking out."

"If you're still worried, then the four of us will go!"

"He's still in the Land of Hot Springs, right?"

"That's fine too. That area happens to be a no-man's-land where countless people disappear every day, and no one can trace the truth of the matter!"

Xiaochun's dorm-hopping habit is really going a bit crazy.

On that aged face, a truly resolute expression was twisted.

What Uchiha clan? What Konoha ninja? She would never admit that the arrogant and wicked guy who usually disrespected his elders was a member of Konoha, a comrade she could live with peacefully and entrust with her life!

The evil nature of that race has remained unchanged since the Warring States period.

The current forbearance and relegation to a corner are merely for recuperation and for greater plans in the future!

Otherwise, why wouldn't they dare to openly display their Mangekyou Sharingan abilities?

"Are you crazy?"

Faced with such radical remarks, a hint of alarm flashed in Hiruzen Sarutobi's aged eyes, and even his words began to disregard the friendship they had shared for half a year.

Sending the village's "Kage" to deal with the ninjas from the same village is simply a joke!

Once exposed, the entire Hidden Leaf Village is doomed.

He truly hadn't expected that Koharu Utatane, blinded by anger, would make such a statement.

Fortunately, there were no outsiders here.

Warning and soundproof barriers were also set up in advance in the surrounding area.

"Okay, no need to say more."

"Since you are unwilling to lend anyone, unwilling to take any risks, and still insist on being a giant tree growing on the ground, then so be it."

"Although the roots have suffered heavy losses in recent years, they have not yet reached the point of complete annihilation or utter destitution."

After realizing he could no longer receive help from the person in front of him, Shimura Danzo gradually toned down his obsequious attitude.

He never expected to get help from the other party.

However, due to the night of the massacre of his clan, due to the probing of the Akatsuki organization in recent years, and due to the seriousness he placed on the Mangekyou Sharingan, he wanted to nip the threat of Uchiha Ara in the bud before it reached the border. That's why he wanted to take action himself and rely on the power of the Anbu.

Just like when they dealt with Uchiha Shisui.

After all, an evil person who had faced the Fourth Mizukage and the Fourth Raikage and awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan would no longer dare to hold back.

"Neither you nor the Roots are allowed to go."

Just as Shimura Danzo made his decision and turned to leave to mobilize all his men to begin the operation, he heard the old man's order in his ear.

But what use is such an order?

Eliminating Uchiha Ara is a must!

So, after giving a disdainful snort, he ignored it and headed towards the door.

The Land of Fire borders the Land of Hot Water.

That evil guy could return to the border at any time, and dealing with him then would be much easier than eliminating him from the outside.

However, what met this cold snort was:

"I need your help."

"The roots cannot be sacrificed in vain."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice was calm, completely unaffected by the emotions of the others present.

Upon hearing this, Shimura Danzo unconsciously stopped in his tracks, his single, exposed eye revealing a cold and gloomy expression.

"You mean I'll die on this trip? That my roots will be destroyed?"

He didn't sense the concern in the other person's words, and instead lowered his voice to ask a question in return.
