Konoha: Uchiha's Magnificent Rebellion

Fugaku's expression changed, and he asked, "Yuan, you have a close relationship with Orochimaru, but what do you know?"

Uchiha Yuan said: "Clan leader, Orochimaru has defected, and the third generation is likely to regain power."

Fugaku's face suddenly showed surprise, "How could it be?"

The captain of the Sixth Squad, Uchiha Gaoyan, burst into laughter. "Uchiha Yuan, what you said is simply ridiculous. How can a retired Hokage take the position of power again?"

Uchiha Yuan said calmly: "Everything is possible, but the Uchiha taking over as Hokage is the most unlikely thing to happen."

Upon hearing this, the Uchiha present all frowned.

Finally, it was Fugaku who spoke. The village was currently on high alert due to Orochimaru's defection, and the guard team chose to wait and see the situation in the village.

After the meeting, the Uchiha left the building.

Just as Uchiha Yuan walked out of the gate with a team of guards to start patrol, two Anbu appeared in a flash.

"Uchiha Fuchi, you have been arrested. The village suspects that you have a significant connection with Orochimaru's defection."

Chapter 179 Konoha Torture Department

'It came so quickly.'

Looking at the Anbu who appeared in front of him, Uchiha Yuan couldn't help but say in his heart.

"What do you want to do!"

Uchiha Tonghu stood out from behind Uchiha Yuan and shouted loudly at the Anbu.

At the same time, the other security guards also started cursing and walked towards the two Anbu with unfriendly expressions.

Swish swish!

At this time, several figures flashed and appeared behind the two Anbu; more Anbu appeared, each of them drew their weapons, and confronted the security team with murderous intent.

"The Uchiha Guard is planning to disobey the village's orders. Do you want to rebel against the village?"

The leading Anbu did not give in to the approaching security guards. He looked at Uchiha Tonghu who walked in front of him with a cold gaze and spoke sternly.

Uchiha Tonghu glanced fiercely at the Anbu and said, "You want to arrest the squad leader just based on one sentence. Do you Anbu want to start a war with the security team?"

The leading Anbu said coldly: "Capturing Uchiha Yuan is the village's order."

At this time, the confrontation between the two sides attracted more and more security guards to gather.

A figure flew and landed in front of the Anbu. It was Uchiha Yoshi, the captain of the first team.

He frowned and said to the leading Anbu: "Uchiha Yuan is the captain of our security team. Even if the village wants to arrest him, they should go through our security team first, instead of you coming here directly to arrest him."

"That's right. When will the village of our guard be able to deal with them directly?"

"Get out of here! How dare a bunch of Anbu act so recklessly in our security base!"

"Hmph, even if Uchiha Yuan really committed a crime, it is up to our guard team to punish him. It is not the village's turn to dictate."

The angry guards surrounded the Anbu, and terrible murderous aura surged towards them like a tide.

The expressions of the Anbu ninjas under their masks became extremely nervous. They leaned against each other with their backs and watched the surrounding security team members vigilantly.

"Okay, everyone, please leave first."

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded, and then Uchiha Yuan walked out from behind the crowd and slowly came in front of a group of Anbu.

"I'll go with you."

Uchiha Yuan said.

"Master Yuan, these guys are here to arrest you. I think it's best to let the clan leader negotiate with the village."

Uchiha Tonghu said to Uchiha Yuan with an anxious look on his face.

Uchiha Yuan waved his hand and said calmly: "You don't have to say anything more. I am innocent. I believe the village will not do anything to me."

"Uchiha Yuan, you disappoint me so much. Why did you become so cowardly this time?"

Uchiha Yuan turned his head and saw that the person who spoke was Uchiha Gaoyan, the captain of the sixth team.

Uchiha Yuan said indifferently: "Captain Gao Yan, I believe the clan leader will support me."

Then he said coldly to the leading Anbu: "I know you are here on the orders of the village, but I want you to understand one thing.

I am only suspected of being related to the defection of Orochimaru. Until there is evidence to prove it, I am not a prisoner of the village, but an important cadre of the security team.

I am now cooperating with your investigation."

Facing Uchiha Yuan's oppressive gaze, the leading Anbu didn't dare to respond forcefully and said, "I understand."

Then, at the signal from the Anbu ninja led by me, the Anbu ninjas put away their weapons one after another.

"Then let's go."

Uchiha Yuan stepped forward and said, then he and the Anbu ninjas flashed away.

Guard building, captain's office.

Upon hearing the news, Uchiha Fugaku smiled after a moment of silence and said to the security officers in front of him, "Yuan has indeed lived up to my expectations. He is sensible and willing to endure for the sake of his family. His choice is correct."

"Chief, I don't understand."

The one who spoke was Uchiha Gaoyan.

"Yes, Chief, the village has gone too far this time. They actually bypassed the security team and sent Anbu to take Captain Yuan away."

Uchiha Fugaku said in a deep voice: "Orochimaru's defection is a very serious incident, and because we support Orochimaru's election for Hokage, I am afraid that in the eyes of the village, our Uchiha clan has secretly colluded with Orochimaru.

The village sent Anbu to take Yuan away, probably to test us.

Everyone needs to understand that now that the news has broken that Orochimaru was secretly conducting human experiments, the village has grasped the righteousness of the matter, and everyone in the village supports the arrest of those involved in Orochimaru's human experiments.

If you had refused to back down and insisted on clashing with the Anbu, then the rest of the village would have believed that our Uchiha clan was involved in Orochimaru's human experiments.

By then, our Uchiha clan will face a very unfavorable situation for us; the village will have reason to deprive us of more rights."

After hearing Fugaku's words, the Uchiha in the office suddenly quieted down.

"So, we can only watch Yuan being captured by the Anbu?"

Uchiha Shiratori, the captain of the first squadron, spoke up.

The captain of the second squadron, Uchiha Hyoga, frowned and said, "Uchiha Yuan has a close relationship with Orochimaru. We don't know if he really has nothing to do with Orochimaru's human experiments."

Uchiha Fuyue said: "So far, the only thing we can do is to wait and see. The village is very

Sensitive period.

However, judging from Yuan's behavior, he should have nothing to do with Orochimaru's human experiments.

We must believe in Yuan."

On the other side, Uchiha Yuan followed the Anbu to a heavily guarded cave.

Then, under the escort of the Anbu, he came to an empty underground space through a straight downward staircase.

The flickering flames of the torches on the surrounding rock walls made this underground space flicker.

"This should be the Anbu prison."

Uchiha Yuan looked around secretly.

As he looked around, ninjas were escorted in by the Anbu. He even recognized several Jonin, who were all Orochimaru's subordinates during the battle against Sand Village.

An Anbu ninja wearing a yellow cat-faced mask suddenly appeared in front of Uchiha Yuan. An Anbu escorting him stepped forward and whispered a few words in the ear of the yellow cat-faced Anbu.

After listening to his subordinates' report, the yellow cat-faced Anbu showed a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He didn't expect Uchiha Yuan to cooperate so well with the Anbu's arrest, because based on Uchiha Yuan's previous behavior, it was normal to resist with a tough attitude.

He said coldly to Uchiha Yuan: "According to the order of the Third Dashi, all suspected ninjas are regarded as serious criminals. Please understand.

Now I need to perform a chakra-sealing technique on you."

Uchiha Yuan withdrew his gaze from a high platform in the underground space, and then said with a proud look on his face: "Let's begin."

The Anbu wearing a yellow cat-faced mask waved his hand, and suddenly three Anbu appeared around Uchiha Yuan.

The four of them quickly formed seals at the same time, and then slapped Uchiha Yuan's chest, back and limbs with their palms respectively.

Suddenly, four sealing spells flashed and then disappeared quietly.

Chapter 180 Uprising

Looking at the sealing technique on his wrist that quietly disappeared, Uchiha Yuan sensed it and found that the chakra in his body became difficult to circulate.

"Send him to cell 9."

Said the yellow cat-masked ANBU.

Then two Anbu appeared and put handcuffs and shackles on Uchiha Yuan with quick movements.

In response, Uchiha Yuan did not resist at all, but looked up at the platform with an indifferent expression.

He was then escorted to the prison cell by the Anbu.

On the high platform, Danzo watched Uchiha Yuan being escorted away with a sinister look on his face, "Huh, it turns out this brat also has a way of being afraid."

At this moment on the high platform, a group of Root ninjas surrounded Danzo with murderous intent.

Once Uchiha Yuan showed fierce resistance, these Root ninjas would immediately take him down, or even kill him on the spot.

However, what Danzo did not expect was that Uchiha Yuan actually, contrary to his usual behavior, cooperated with the Anbu's arrest.

In Danzo's view, Uchiha Yuan's arrogance in the past was because he relied on Orochimaru as his support. However, now that Orochimaru has defected and become a wanted criminal in the village, Uchiha Yuan has lost his support and now he has begun to feel fear.

"Uchiha Fuuchi... and the Uchiha clan... humph!"

As he watched Uchiha Yuan's figure disappear deep into the passage leading to the cell, Danzo showed a sinister smile on his face.

On both sides of the long and dark passage are cells. As the Anbu prison, it holds Konoha's rebel ninjas and spies from other villages all year round.

Today, the prisoners were shocked to see Konoha ninjas being escorted in one after another by the Anbu.

Then, amidst the sad and angry words of these Konoha ninjas, they learned a shocking piece of news: Orochimaru, one of the three Konoha ninjas, had defected.

All the Konoha ninjas captured by the Anbu were Orochimaru's subordinates.

Cell No. 9.

Uchiha Yuan's figure was almost completely hidden in the darkness. He closed his eyes, sat cross-legged, and remained silent.

After an unknown amount of time, the entire prison area gradually quieted down. Orochimaru's subordinates sat in the cells, either feeling uneasy or with indifferent expressions, waiting for the village's investigation.

A suppressed sobbing sound came from the cell next to Uchiha Yuan. It was a girl's voice.

"Teacher Orochimaru...how could you do such a thing..."

"... Orochimaru-sensei, why did you abandon us..."

"Orochimaru-sensei...I hope you're okay..."

With a soft murmur, Uchiha Yuan slowly opened his eyes.

It turned out to be Mitarashi Red Bean.

There was a wall between the cells. Uchiha Yuan recognized the owner of the voice and the image of a proud little girl appeared in his mind.

Uchiha Yuan estimated the time and it should be late at night.

He stood up and walked to the front of the cell, looking around through the iron bars that were as thick as his arms.

"Uchiha Yuan, I didn't expect you to be captured as well. That's right, Lord Orochimaru's defection is too serious. Even the Uchiha clan dared not stop the village from capturing you."

A surprised voice came from the opposite side of cell No. 9, and then a silver-haired ninja walked to the railing and looked at Uchiha Yuan.

"So you are Chiba Jonin. Since we left the battle against Sunagakure, I never thought that we would meet again in this place."

Uchiha Yuan spoke.

Chiba Soichi said with a wry smile: "Who would have thought that Lord Orochimaru would actually defect."

Uchiha Yuan sneered and said, "Yeah, who would have thought that Orochimaru-senpai would suddenly become a traitor when he was about to successfully take over the position of the Fifth Hokage."

Hearing this, Chiba Soichi's expression changed slightly. After a moment of silence, he said in a deep voice, "Uchiha Yuan, your words seem to have other meanings. Do you know something?"

The conversation between the two attracted the attention of the ninjas in other cells around them. One after another, figures appeared at the cell railings and looked towards Uchiha Yuan.
