"I told you long ago, you'd regret your foolish decision one day, Hiruzen!"
The Third Hokage looked up at the photo of the Fourth Hokage hanging on the wall, remained silent for a moment, and then said:
"He will not destroy Konoha."
"This is, after all, his hometown."
Upon hearing this, Danzo's eyes fixed intently on the Third Hokage:
"He won't destroy it, but he'll oust you from the Hokage position and then kill me! He'll lead the Uchiha clan to dictate Konoha!!"
"Hiruzen!"
Seeing Hiruzen fall silent, Danzo secretly chuckled to himself.
He then made the following suggestion to the third generation:
"Leave this matter to me, and I will give you a satisfactory explanation."
"You're thinking……"
“That’s right, only Shisui can save Konoha now! Hand him over to me, and I will take care of this.”
After Shisui awakened his Mangekyou Sharingan and gained the ability to modify the will of others, he immediately told the Hokage and Danzo.
The Third Hokage could naturally guess Danzo's plan.
His friend wanted to exploit Shisui's love for Konoha to indirectly control Haneda using Kotoamatsukami.
In this way, the village will not only avoid losing the Uchiha clan, but will also gain a powerful fighting force.
Danzo's actions did not harm Konoha, but they would sacrifice Haneda and Shisui, which made the Third Hokage hesitate.
Suddenly, a ninja wearing a cat-face mask appeared in a flash and bowed to the Third Hokage and Danzo:
"Lord Hokage, Lord Danzo."
"Shisui, is there something you want to say?"
When the Third Generation saw Shisui arrive, a kind smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Yes, Uchiha Haneda returned to the village tonight, and according to Itachi, his purpose in returning is to run for Hokage."
When Shisui finished speaking, the Third Hokage's eyes suddenly showed surprise.
Danzo's face turned extremely gloomy.
Haneda didn't come to destroy Konoha; he actually wants to become Hokage!
In that case, Hiruzen might not be willing to agree to his plan!
"Hiruzen, it's time to make a decision. Are you still going to hesitate at this moment?!"
"Danzo, let's wait and see for a while longer. The Uchiha will always be the Uchiha of Konoha, and Haneda is also a hero of Konoha."
Hearing that Hiruzen was again inclined to compromise with Haneda, Danzo glanced at Shisui's eyes out of the corner of his eye and made up his mind.
“I understand that. The Uchiha will always be the Uchiha of Konoha.”
"Shisui, please keep a close eye on Haneda's next moves during this period."
"Now you're the only one who can keep an eye on him."
"You should also know what Haneda said here before he left."
"Yes, Lord Danzo."
Shisui responded, and seeing that the Hokage did not object, the weight in his heart was lifted.
Just then, a crow flew in and gently landed on Shisui's shoulder.
A piece of paper was tied to the crow's claw.
Shisui knew that it was information Itachi had given him, and that something important had probably happened in the clan!
"Is it one against seven?" the Third Hokage asked with a smile.
Shisui nodded, untied the note, and glanced at it:
"The clan is about to hold a clan meeting. Itachi said that any Uchiha clan member who does not attend will be considered a traitor."
"Is it about Uchiha Haneda? He's still the same as ever, he likes to be dictator."
Danzo subtly belittled the inherently evil Uchiha brat before getting down to business.
"Shisui, this is urgent. You should go back first. The Uchiha clan meeting this time is most likely related to Haneda."
"As the representative of the Uchiha's dove faction, he will definitely target you, so be careful."
Danzo's sudden display of concern for him made Shisui somewhat uncomfortable.
However, thinking about Danzo's relationship with his grandfather, Shisui began to understand.
He nodded, then bid farewell to Danzo and the Third Hokage, and left the Hokage Building.
…………
Nanga Shrine.
When Shisui entered this secret meeting place, the basement was completely silent.
This was different from any gathering that Zhishui had participated in before.
Before the clan chief and elders arrive, clan members who know each other often chat.
Shisui walked to his seat, filled with doubt.
Suddenly, he noticed someone staring at him and instinctively looked in that direction.
It's Haneda and Itachi!
Itachi's eyelids twitched, and he blinked frequently, constantly sending messages to Shisui.
Haneda stared at Shisui for a while before looking away.
But it was this ordinary behavior that put so much pressure on the water to stop the flow.
Suddenly, he understood why his people had become serious and quiet.
Haneda's aura is so powerful, it's intimidating!
After all the Uchiha Jonin had arrived, Fugaku glanced at Haneda, coughed a few times, and walked to the front of the large group of clansmen.
"I've called everyone here today on short notice. There's nothing really going on, but Haneda has something to say."
"Haneda, you come up here and speak."
After finishing his opening remarks, Fugaku immediately gave his seat to Haneda.
Zhi Shui looked at his tribesmen, who seemed used to it, and felt a little strange.
Logically speaking, the convening of a clan meeting must be approved by the clan chief and elders. How come Yutian can convene a meeting on his own?
Even if Haneda is strong and has a high status, he still has to abide by a set of rules, right?
As Haneda stepped onto the stage, both hawks and doves became excited.
Their adoration was evident in their eyes.
Haneda stood quietly on the stage for a few seconds, meeting everyone's gaze.
He only spoke after they had calmed down:
"I'm here for only two things."
"First, we condemn the inaction of Konoha's higher-ups and their targeting of the Uchiha clan."
"Secondly, it is to succeed as the Fifth Hokage and unify the Uchiha front."
Haneda paused, glanced around at the clansmen, and finally fixed his gaze on Shisui.
"Uncle Sakumo and senior Minato led Konoha to victory in the Third Shinobi World War."
"Without exception, all the major powers voluntarily signed peace agreements with Konoha."
"But Minato-senpai, during the three years I was away from Konoha, Kirigakure, Iwagakure, and Kumogakure launched wars against Konoha one after another!"
"When did Konoha become so weak?"
"Let those enemies who were once beaten to a pulp become so arrogant!"
"This is a sign of the inaction and incompetence of Konoha's higher-ups!"
Chapter 226 Speech at Naga Shrine
Haneda walked around and looked around.
He spoke loudly:
"So I killed the Third Tsuchikage in front of tens of thousands of Iwagakure ninja, helping Konoha to win a great victory on the battlefield in Iwagakure."
"Even so, the Konoha leadership's targeting of the Uchiha clan has not stopped!"
Upon hearing this, the hawkish Uchiha clan members became excited, their eyes turning slightly red.
They were all too aware of the Konoha leadership's targeting of the Uchiha clan.
