"In the entire Hidden Leaf Village, apart from Danzo, no one would do such a disgusting thing!"
"Damn Danzo, does he really think the Hyuga clan is easy to bully?!"
"Chief, why don't we rebel?"
"While the village is still recovering, let's march straight to the root and wring the head off that old thief Danzo!"
"You stole my Byakugan! This is an irreconcilable enmity!"
The further down the page he read, the calmer Danzo's expression became.
Logically, he should have been furious upon seeing these insults and murderous intent.
But for some reason, he suddenly laughed.
The root members on guard around were all stunned.
No one expected that Lord Danzo, who was always gloomy, taciturn, and never showed his emotions, would laugh out loud at such a moment.
Gradually, the laughter stopped.
His face, hidden beneath the bandages, turned completely somber at that moment.
"good very good."
"How dare they pin such a huge label on me, first by giving me the cold shoulder, then by making me take the blame."
"All root members, heed my command..."
Just as Danzo was about to issue orders to surround the Hyuga clan's territory, Ryoma Aburame appeared silently beside him and whispered something in his ear.
The other Root members saw Danzo's already extremely gloomy expression suddenly change.
It was like shock, or perhaps the resentment of having some plan forcibly interrupted.
In just a few breaths, Danzo's eyes flickered, clearly weighing the pros and cons at lightning speed.
In the end, Danzo suppressed his previous order and instead said in a deep voice, "Terai."
"exist!"
“Reassign some of the Root members who were originally monitoring the Uchiha clan to the Hyuga clan.”
"Keep a close eye on their every move, and report any unusual activity immediately."
"Yes!"
Danzo paused, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
"As for the rest of you, stay put and wait for my instructions."
"As ordered!"
After saying this, Danzo said no more and turned to leave.
Ryoma Aburame followed silently.
The two walked quickly toward the Hokage Building, one after the other.
At this moment, the moon was bright and the stars were few.
The hustle and bustle of the day has been gradually soothed by the night, leaving only a rare tranquility.
As early summer approaches, patrolling ninjas occasionally sweep across the streets of Konoha.
The shadows of the trees swayed, and the evening breeze was slightly cool.
But beneath this tranquility, there was clearly a sense of impending doom.
Shimura Danzo did not stop along the way, and his pace was even more hurried than usual.
It wasn't until he pushed open the door to the Hokage's meeting room and glanced around that his gaze darkened slightly.
really.
The top officials of Konoha have almost all arrived.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, Homura Mitokado, Koharu Utatane, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Tsunade carrying a bag, Shikaku Nara, Minato Namikaze, and the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
There is also an unofficial member of the Root organization, Hinata Seiran.
And one.....
A Konoha ninja who has fallen into a coma?
Danzo scanned them one by one, his gaze lingering on Hyuga Seiran for a moment, a hint of dissatisfaction flashing in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.
He walked expressionlessly to his seat and slowly sat down.
"It's Danzo..."
From the main seat, Hiruzen Sarutobi spoke calmly, nodded slightly to him, and then turned his gaze back to Aoran Hyuga, "Aoran, you can continue."
"Yes, Hokage-sama."
Hinata Seiran nodded slightly and slowly revealed a bombshell.
"Lord Hokage, esteemed lords."
"Uchiha Madara... seems to still be alive."
Chapter 56 Trouble Ensued
"..."
Even though some of the people present had already seen the intelligence scroll that Hinata Seiran had handed over, it was still a problem.
But when he actually heard those words with his own ears, his heart was still filled with tremendous turmoil.
Madara Uchiha.
A being whose very name is enough to shake the ninja world.
The man who once stood shoulder to shoulder with the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, to end the Warring States period, but ultimately broke with Konoha.
That legend who once stood at the pinnacle of the ninja world, whose mere name was enough to strike fear into the hearts of countless people.
The Asura of the Ninja World.
Madara Uchiha.
still alive.
"Where's the evidence?"
Danzo Shimura spoke first, breaking the silence.
Although his heart was filled with turmoil, his face remained unusually calm.
The one-eyed man stared intently at Hinata Seiran, his dissatisfaction almost undisguised.
Is Madara Uchiha still alive?
Is this level of intelligence capable of reaching the Hokage Building directly?
Even if the news is true, as an unofficial member of Root, Hyuga Aoran should have reported to him, the person in charge of Root, first.
Instead of bypassing themselves, they directly alerted the higher-ups in Konoha.
Moreover, Konoha is already overwhelmed with affairs and is almost at its most chaotic state.
The prisoners from Iwagakure are still being held in the Konoha prison.
The hastily retreating Onoki has sent someone to deliver a ceasefire agreement, preparing to sign a peace treaty, and demanding that Konoha release Huang Tu.
On the Sunagakure side, Rasa wouldn't listen to anyone, even when Koharu Utatane came forward in person, he was brushed off and kept urging Orochimaru to come and talk.
The Fourth Raikage of Kumogakure simply withdrew his troops, refusing to discuss a ceasefire or sign a peace treaty. According to Mitokado Homura, the enemy seemed poised to turn their attention back to Iwagakure and Sunagakure, attempting to further expand their gains.
As for the Fog Concealment?
Since the Seven Ninja Swordsmen were scattered by Konoha genin Might Guy with a single kick, they seem to have completely disappeared without a trace, with no further clear movements.
And Hanzo of the Amegakure Salamander, whom Shimura Danzo was in charge of, was an important part of what he was going to deal with personally tonight.
Not only should they take this opportunity to disrupt the Rain Village's power structure and sow the seeds of future trouble, but they should also reasonably attribute the subsequent credit to Orochimaru.
But who could have imagined...
But at this critical juncture, this earth-shattering news suddenly emerged.
Madara Uchiha is still alive?!
Hyuga Seiran lowered his head slightly, his tone revealing a hint of complexity: "Lord Danzo, to be honest... I didn't believe it at first either. This incident started when Yumi's Byakugan was taken away by Hiruko..."
Then, he explained the whole story, bit by bit.
It turns out that after Hyuga Yumi's eyes were taken by the rogue ninja Hiruko, they were damaged and could not be transplanted back.
Therefore, the senior members of the main clan decided to select a new pair of Byakugan from the clan's secret archives for Hyuga Yumi to transplant.
Hinata Seiran was sent by Hinata Yumi to select a suitable Byakugan.
So Hyuga Seiran followed Hyuga Hiashi to the secret vault to select the Byakugan and explore the ancient books.
But when they arrived at the secret vault, they were shocked to discover...
