I unleashed a Hundred Demons Parade in the Ninja World

There's no need to say it outright; let Danzo guess.

The one-eyed old man, having not received the answer he wanted, fell silent once more.

A single sentence reshapes the dark force commander's feigned indifference.

The most extreme speculation about the Uchiha Ara faction.

In just this short period of time, Shimura Danzo realized what kind of methods this seemingly kind and gentle old friend was hiding.

I'm afraid my little scheme has completely fallen into the other party's expectations.

However, even so,

They will not give up their ambitions!

And that's what makes it interesting.

Otherwise, what's the point of easily defeating such an old man in his twilight years?

"The root can set off for the land of hot springs tomorrow."

He finalized the date.

Of course, while vying for the Hokage position, we must not let our guard down in the slightest regarding Uchiha Ara's intentions and actions.

The earlier you set off and plan, the more room you will have to maneuver later.

Glancing at the old fox whose fighting spirit had suddenly ignited, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't show any extra emotion, but simply said methodically:

"You don't need to rush things. Make careful arrangements, don't underestimate the enemy, and it's always better to be safe than sorry."

"Moreover, it will take me time to contact the Fourth Raikage and the Fifth Mizukage."

"Applying pressure together at that time will be the best way to make that kid show his true colors."

While weakening the power of Root is what he wants to see, it's not simply about wanting to see the power belonging to Konoha poured into it all at once, resulting in a pointless sacrifice.

"Ah."

"I don't need you to teach me this."

Despite this warning, Shimura Danzo remained resolute and raised his own questions:

"Aren't the arrangements over there ready yet? Why is there still no movement?"

"You should know that the best way to quell the Uchiha strife right now is to eliminate that little bastard."

When everything and all the targeting are laid bare, the so-called concealment and subtlety become less important.

Erasing such words is effortless.

Upon hearing this, the Third Hokage slowed down his breathing of smoke, and Danzo could clearly see a cold glint in the other's eyes through the illusory mist.

“That guy’s demands are a bit excessive.”

After a short while, Hiruzen Sarutobi finally spoke.

"What does that old man want? Isn't one great victory enough?"

"Could it be... Ara's eyes?"

Danzo immediately saw the crux of the problem, noticing his old friend's hesitation!

Aside from some things that absolutely cannot be discussed openly, the only thing that's really attractive is that kid's Mangekyou Sharingan!

"You agreed?"

Before the other party could answer, he couldn't contain his emotions and asked a question out loud.

Because judging from the other party's personality, there's a high chance they'll agree!

Moreover, this is the most direct way to eliminate Uchiha Ara.

but,

That's the Mangekyou Sharingan!

A terrifying bloodline limit that's on a completely different level from ordinary Sharingan!!

The ability to foresee the future

If only such eyes could be transplanted onto my body.

Danzo Shimura's eyes began to harden, and the half of his face exposed outside the bandages became increasingly ferocious.

"Then let's change the plan."

"After achieving our goal, we can launch a counterattack. This way, we can not only take those eyes, but also give an explanation to everyone, including the Uchiha clan."

His voice was sharp and cold, and his wooden cane creaked as he gripped it.

"I'm willing to bet everything on what happens next, including myself!"

He added that business is full of decisiveness.

However, the white-haired old man sitting at the desk showed no emotion whatsoever.

"Can you really just watch those eyes, brimming with limitless potential, slip away?"

The Third Hokage's silence immediately ignited Danzo Shimura's anger, as he truly could not tolerate handing over this strategic resource, which was above the Byakugan, to someone else.

If he truly cannot obtain it no matter what, then he would rather destroy it!

"No."

"This would involve too many people, and Konoha simply cannot afford such consequences. Moreover, in this environment where we are surrounded by enemies, we need to continue to cooperate with them."

Sensing Shimura Danzo's fierce determination, Hiruzen Sarutobi knew he could no longer remain silent.

Because this guy is actually capable of doing this!

For those eyes,

Execute first, report later!

"Then let's start the war, and fight to the death."

"Bring them all in at once!"

"I'm not afraid!"

Danzo truly wanted to possess those eyes, because only after owning them could he truly understand the terror of the Kaleidoscope!

Moreover, the Hashirama cells transplanted into his body were fully capable of helping him overcome the side effects of transplanting Sharingan from a different race.

"One."

"I only promised one."

Faced with such outrageous remarks, Hiruzen Sarutobi finally couldn't take it anymore and angrily slammed his pipe onto the table.

What seemed like an impending downpour was replaced by a bright sunny day.

Upon receiving this answer, Shimura Danzo's anger was abruptly extinguished by half.

If it were just one, then everything would be tolerable.

Because they also clearly understand that if the two sides become estranged, it will inevitably lead to a fight to the death, at which point no one will truly win, and the price paid will be devastating.

However, since only one was promised, theoretically, our side still benefits more.

After all, no one knows how many lives will be lost to bury that little madman!

"Where's the time?"

"Have you decided?"

With that thought in mind, Shimura Danzo stopped pressing the matter.

"Before the Chunin Exams."

"To remove it before a chaotic and mixed environment forms."

At this point, Hiruzen Sarutobi stopped hiding anything and laid out all his plans from the past month.

"I see."

"I will have [Wind] and [Root Taker] go to set up the operation and facilitate the transaction, so that the other party will not deny it after we succeed."

"The ability to extract roots will play a very good role in that environment."

Danzo's words offered no room for compromise whatsoever.

Moreover, the implication of "immediately" is quite obvious. He cannot fully confirm the truthfulness of the other party's words, so he wants to keep more of the initiative in his own hands.

"Humph."

In response, the Third Hokage simply gave a curt snort to show that he understood.

However, Yu Zhi still harbored some dissatisfaction in his heart.

It's hard to say whether this old fox's meddling was to facilitate the deal or to seize ownership of the eye as soon as possible.

However, this is not a particularly important matter.

Then he finally looked at the other two colleagues who had never been able to get a word in edgewise.

"Xiaochun, Menyan, you still have some strength left, don't you?"

"Bring those people back and have them assist the Anbu in monitoring all unfamiliar faces who have recently entered Konoha, and be wary of Uchiha Ara or other forces taking the opportunity to infiltrate."

His voice was filled with an undeniable air of command.

There's no need to pay too much attention to these two.

Chapter 373 Your face is very beautiful.

The night fog was thick, and snakes and rats scattered.

Chaotic demonic energy mixed with a thick stench of blood enveloped the lush mountain forest.

In the distance, a broken but passable stone path stretches from the foot of the mountain to the summit, and in that distance, rows of old wooden houses stand.

But the strange thing is,

There seemed to be a faint sound of evening drums echoing through the air.
