Naruto: I, Naruto, don't want to try anymore.

Chapter 59 Relocation Completed

He could easily guess who betrayed the Uchiha clan.

First of all, Jiraiya would definitely not do such a thing, and he might not even know that such a thing exists.

As for Hiruzen Sarutobi, it's not impossible, but the possibility is indeed very small.

Given Hiruzen Sarutobi's personality, even if he had this idea, he wouldn't agree to it. In addition, with the change of the Hokage position, he couldn't possibly take the blame. At most, he would just pretend not to know and turn a blind eye.

The old man is indeed hypocritical, but his indecisiveness is also undeniable.

The mastermind behind it all is undoubtedly Shimura Danzo. The other two old fogies might not know, but if they did, they certainly wouldn't object.

Once a person's strength and virtue are not commensurate with their position, they are easily corrupted by power, gradually viewing everything as a measurable bargaining chip, and becoming a puppet controlled by power.

This is how the higher-ups in Konoha behave.

So the Uchiha defection, although it sounds a bit surreal.

But after thinking about it carefully for a while, Naruto found that it was surprisingly reasonable!

"So...you want me to help bring the entire Uchiha clan over?"

"Are you having any difficulties?"

"No, not at all..."

Naruto shook his head; with his chakra reserves, there was no pressure whatsoever.

"It's a bit unbelievable, but it doesn't seem so bad?"

He didn't take the Uchiha clan too seriously, but there was also Sasuke, who was also a reincarnation of the Six Paths' son's chakra.

She's definitely not as strong as I am, who comes from the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect, but she's still one of the future power ceilings in Shippuden.

If one could further cultivate upon the foundation of the myriad phenomena, who knows, one person might be able to take on the entire Otsutsuki clan?

And Obito's eyes are still soaking in the nutrient solution.

Naruto originally planned to wait until Karin was older so that she could use her eyes to cast genjutsu on him, or seal her chakra within him, in order to obtain the Kamui Mangekyou Sharingan.

But since the Uchiha clan is involved, there's no need to make Karin take that risk.

People from the same clan are definitely more compatible, but it's not easy to choose the right people. But that's okay, the Uchiha are the easiest to fool...

……

Two days later, in the Land of Hot Springs…

Fugaku, accompanied by Shisui, Itachi, and Inahisa, looked at the Cloud Village ninja blocking their path with an expressionless face.

In the dense forest, masked figures quietly appeared around, surrounding the Fugaku Squad.

"The guy at the root..."

As the ninjas slowly approached, forming an encirclement, Shisui's heart sank to the bottom.

The scene he least wanted to see finally happened before his eyes.

Itachi also fell silent for a moment. Although he knew that the Uchiha clan was not favored by the higher-ups, this blatant betrayal still chilled him to the bone.

The last glimmer of hope in his heart was completely shattered as the Root ninjas surrounded him.

Now that things have come to this, he can no longer deceive himself.

Although everyone present was a Root ninja, the large-scale operation involving dozens of people was already the setup for a small-scale war. It was impossible for the village to be completely unaware of the deployment of so many people.

In other words, even if this was just Danzo acting on his own initiative, it still represented the tacit acceptance of the other high-ranking officials.

Daohu spat: "Just as I thought, this is how the higher-ups behave!"

Fugaku looked at the leading Root ninja: "So... is this Danzo's idea, or Konoha's?"

"This is my thought, and it is also Konoha's thought."

From the back of the crowd, Shimura Danzo, leaning on his crutch, slowly walked out and looked at the Cloud Village ninja leading the group opposite him.

"Did you bring the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?"

Bang!

A cage covered with sealing talismans landed in front of the Cloud Village leader.

Inside the cage, the blond boy was bound with cursed restraints.

Behind Danzo, a sensory ninja nodded: "This amount of chakra... it's definitely the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!"

Upon hearing this, Danzo nodded slightly and looked at Uchiha Fugaku.

"Fugaku, Konoha cannot be without the Nine-Tails. You should understand the importance of the Jinchuriki."

"So... don't blame me, this is all for the village."

"For the village..."

Fugaku was so angry he laughed.

Although he had anticipated this situation, he still underestimated Danzo's shamelessness, as he could say such things without batting an eye!

"As I said before... Lord Fugaku."

The leader of the Hidden Cloud Village removed his mask, revealing a familiar face.

"We'll meet again on the battlefield."

Savaya looked at Fugaku with a grin: "So, are you going to 'surrender' or take this opportunity to vent your dissatisfaction with the Konoha leadership?"

"What do you mean?"

Danzo's expression darkened: "The envoy from Kumogakure... our condition should only be the corpse of the Uchiha, right?"

"That's true, but living Uchiha are definitely more precious than dead Uchiha, aren't they?"

Savaya patted the sealed cage: "What do you think, Lord Danzo?"

Danzo's expression darkened, and he squinted at the cage next to Savaya, his face twitching for a moment.

"Alright... let's get started!"

rustling-

The Root ninjas around them drew their swords and charged towards Fugaku and his companions.

Savaya looked at Fugaku: "So, Chief Fugaku, your answer is..."

"There's nothing we can do about it."

Fugaku sighed heavily, then suddenly opened his eyes, the kaleidoscope patterns in his pupils slowly rotating.

"I hope you will take good care of me in the future."

As soon as he finished speaking, a chilling aura surged forth, and the crimson Susanoo rose from the ground!

With a single horizontal sweep of the massive chakra katana, more than a dozen Root ninjas were sent flying!

"It's the Mangekyou Sharingan..."

Danzo's expression changed. It wasn't hard to tell from Fugaku's words that the two had already been in contact: "Fugaku, don't forget the Uchiha clan members are still in Konoha!"

"There's no need for Elder Danzo to trouble himself with that."

Itachi glanced coldly at Danzo, summoned a ninja cat, and handed it a scroll to him.

"Spirit communication... So it was all premeditated all along..."

Danzo's face suddenly darkened: "Contact the village! The Uchiha have betrayed us! Immediately send men to take the Uchiha clan under control!"

"It's too late, Danzo."

Savaya laughed heartily as he opened the cage door beside him: "Lord Naruto, thank you for your help!"

Inside the cage, Naruto, who had been sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes and exploded into smoke with a bang.

Two seconds later, in Konoha, at the Uchiha clan's territory...

As soon as Mikoto Uchiha received the message from the ninja cat, Naruto appeared in front of her.

"Thank you for your help, Naruto."

"Is everyone here?"

"Everything is here."

Inside the Naga Shrine, hundreds of Uchiha clan members had already gathered.

Naruto was not surprised at all. If the matter of betraying the village was delayed any longer, then it would be their own fault if they were wiped out by Konoha.

Several shadow clones flashed through the crowd like lightning, and chakra cloaks surged up one after another, turning the shrine into a red ocean.

Then, before people could react...

The scene before them changed in quick succession, appearing outside the Hidden Cloud Village from the Naga Shrine!

Relocation complete!
