Uchiha Akaishi Tour

Danzo wanted to frame Nonou, but after thinking about the truly serious matters in his mind...

Danzo chose to keep quiet!

After all, if these questions were brought up, Hiruzen Sarutobi might not believe that Yakushi Nonou knew about them. However, these matters alone were enough to cause Hiruzen to turn against him... for at least three months.

It's like the "Wood Release experiment"...

If Nono knew as much as Hiruzen Sarutobi, then the nature of the situation wasn't actually that bad. Sarutobi didn't think Ranma had any reason to hide it—if it were just a Wood Release experiment, given Ranma's personality, she would definitely come and confront Hiruzen Sarutobi, but afterwards…

It's not entirely impossible to explain!

However, if Sarutobi knew what Root had been doing behind his back, he himself would not be able to tolerate it!

Therefore, Danzo ultimately failed to provide any examples in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi...

But while he remained silent, others did speak out!

……

As soon as Lanwu returned to the Forest Street, people began to show their concern.

"Little Lanwu, what's going on? What were you doing in Wind City?"

"Did that Akaishi lead you to do something bad?"

"Sigh, Xiao Lanwu has grown up. She knows how to solve problems on her own now and doesn't come to us for help anymore..."

"It's all that Akaishi's fault! What did the Third Hokage say?"

"What? Major dereliction of duty? No way, I'm going to find the Third Hokage and explain this to him!"

"No...we're going to the Uchiha clan right now to confront that Akashi!"

"That's right, drag Uchiha Kensuke out too!"

Because Lan Wu hadn't written, the Forest City only had a vague understanding of what had happened in the Wind Capital. They only knew that Uchiha Akashi seemed to have broken some kind of curse seal of the Root, which implicated Lan Wu.

Lan Wu first calmed down the neighbors, while frequently glancing at her third and fourth uncles...

Canglan realized that Lanwu seemed to have something she wanted to say in private, so she said, "Alright, alright, we'll settle the score with that kid later... Natsu, take Nono to Lanwu's courtyard, Lanwu and we need to meet."

Canglan was about to have someone take Ye Naiyu to rest, and privately ask Lanwu what exactly happened.

but……

"No, Nonou, come along too," Ranma said, pulling Nonou along.

"Hmm? Oh... okay." Canglan was also a little puzzled.

He could guess that what Lan Wu was going to say was likely related to Nonou, but he didn't expect Lan Wu to trust Nonou so much—if Nonou had said something about the inner workings of Root, she should have let them know first before questioning Nonou, right?

However, Lanwu's choice was based entirely on her complete trust in Nono's performance, and she didn't feel there was any need to verify it.

Afterwards, Canglan, Songluan, and Lanjun exchanged glances and met with Lanwu and Ye Naiyu alone.

"Lanwu, what exactly happened?" Canglan asked seriously.

It wasn't that I was being serious about Lanwu, but rather...

They realized that Lan Wu was about to say something serious!

"Third Uncle, Fourth Uncle, Uncle Lan Jun... I've discovered something..."

……

"What? The Root has restarted the Wood Release experiment, and many children have died?" Lan Jun was the first to jump up in anger.

"Reboot?" Lan Wu was taken aback when she heard this—she felt that Uncle Lan Jun's choice of words was very strange.

"Ahem, nothing... Is it true?" Lan Jun asked, looking at Nonou.

Nono didn't embellish the story; she simply stated what she had confirmed—a large number of orphans were dying under unusual circumstances. While these deaths were being attributed to various excuses, a significant portion of them weren't even recorded at the time of "adoption." However…

Nonou discovers that these "missing" children all point to some secret research institute outside the village, and the Wood Release experiment was discovered by investigating along this line.

Because Nono wasn't a member of the project, she wasn't informed of Root's secrets in this regard; she discovered everything herself, so it can't be called "detailed," but...

At this point, the subsequent inferences become logical!

The three old men in the Forest Town looked quite grim after hearing all this.

Lan Jun, the most impatient of them all, stood up and walked out...

"Wait, where are you going?" Canglan quickly called out to him.

"I'll get rid of those Root members who're just loitering around here! From now on, no Root ninjas will be allowed to appear within ten miles of the Forest Town!" Lan Jun said confidently.

Seeing that he hadn't yet acted impulsively enough to confront the Hokage directly, Canglan sat back down and offered no comment on what he was about to do.

after all……

The Uchiha clan has been doing this for a long time.

Root usually has ninjas lurking in various parts of the village. Just now, because Nono and Ranma returned together, there were more Root ninjas around the Forest Town. However, Canglan and the others had just turned a blind eye to it before.

……

Outside the Forest Town, two Root ninjas were hiding in the canopy of a large tree.

This tacit "surveillance" only needs to avoid the eyes and ears of ordinary people, chunin, and genin. Even if the jonin in the Forest City discover it, they won't say anything.

After all, this place is still quite a distance from the Forest Town, but...

whoosh-

Just then, Lan Jun used a "Blink Technique" to appear on the treetop in front of them. He didn't say anything, just stared straight at the two of them.

Upon seeing this, the two masked Root ninjas asked somewhat nervously, "Jonin Lan Jun... is something wrong?"

"Get out!" Lan Jun hadn't lost his mind yet, and didn't immediately question the Wood Release experiment.

"We...we are..." The Root ninja was startled and incredulous.

What day is it today?

The root of the body was told to get lost twice in a row?

We at the root don't care about saving face...

"I told you to get lost! Don't you understand?" Lan Jun said, water already swirling around him, looking ready to attack.

"Wait, wait... this isn't the Forest Town..."

"From now on, you should stay as far away from the police headquarters and the Uchiha clan's territory as you need to stay away from the Forest Town, otherwise..." Lan Jun said, and directly unleashed a "Water Stream Combo," a high-pressure water stream accompanied by his fist, splitting the towering tree in front of him from its crown to its roots.

Although the two Root ninjas avoided the commotion, or rather, the commotion wasn't their target, it still attracted the attention of many passersby, and even drew a crowd.

Seeing that someone was coming and there were no more trees to block their way, Lan Jun still maintained a confrontational attitude with the two men, so the two Root ninjas had no choice but to leave immediately.

Otherwise, the news of the Forest Town ninjas confronting Root in the street would immediately spread throughout Konoha Village...

No matter the reason, they will ultimately be the ones who suffer the consequences.

Even Shimura Danzo wouldn't dare to suddenly openly clash with Mori no Machi.

Lan Jun didn't explain further, simply turning away and heading out in groups to find the Root ninjas in the vicinity until there were no more Root ninjas within ten miles...

……

Danzo was both anxious and furious upon learning the news from his underground headquarters in Root.

"Damn it! As expected, that Lanwu started stirring up trouble in the Forest City and she's making things difficult for me... It's all because of that damned Uchiha Akashi... It's all because of those damned Uchiha!" Danzo knew, of course, that this was definitely because of Lanwu.

Originally, because Lanwu had not contacted the Forest City before, the relationship between Root and the Forest City was not affected much. Danzo was even a little relieved, thinking that his teacher's granddaughter was sensible and was just temporarily deceived by the Uchiha.

who knows……

You just got back and you're already complaining and stirring up trouble, huh?

So you're afraid the letter won't be clear enough, right?

Now, even the former Senju clan has become an obstacle to his efforts to make Konoha great again!

While Danzo was indignant, he also felt some worry—he was still unsure why the Mori-no-Machi would do this, and what its true nature was…

It would be best if he had only heard a few provocative words and vented his anger for Lanwu—this would be a relief for Danzo!

If it's just "venting," then it only proves that Lanwu is very dissatisfied with Genbu and has said a lot of bad things about herself.

It was not for any other reason that angered the Jonin of the Forest City.

If he was "provoked"... Danzo could only think about what exactly he had exposed!

"Withdraw all the Root ninjas within ten miles of the Forest Town and stay away for now..." Danzo held back for the time being.

"Lord Danzo, if it's ten li, it's south of the village..." The Root ninja who came to report was still a little hesitant.

Ten miles is already quite a lot for Konoha, and can no longer be considered "near the Forest Town".

The police headquarters is located directly south of the village, the Uchiha clan's territory is in the southeast of the village, and the Forest Town is in the southwest...

This ten li, that ten li, are all "around ten li", but now they are all connected and have gone out for more than a hundred li, and they all overlap with each other!

Now that Mori no Machi has been cleared of people, the entire southern part of the village can no longer be monitored!

"Do as I say!" Danzo interrupted impatiently.

He was well aware of the consequences of taking a step back, but... at this moment, he couldn't "stand up" to the Forest Town.

Regardless of the strength of the Forest City itself and its influence within Konoha, the current special situation alone has placed the Forest City in a dominant position in public opinion.

Now, only Iwagakure is at war with Konoha.

Furthermore, the intensity of the fighting between the two sides has always been kept under control. It is obvious to everyone that neither side wants to fight anymore; it's just a matter of dividing up some interests, some disagreements, and they need to fight their way out of a consensus little by little!

However, the most dissatisfied party is the Forest Town.

After all, when the battle began in Iwagakure, they immediately "suddenly" killed Nawaki...

The fighting hasn't even gotten very close yet, and they're already calling for a ceasefire?

If it were the Uchiha clan...

If a ceasefire were to be declared after Kagami's death, with no significant progress in the fighting between Konoha, Amegakure, and Sunagakure, the Uchiha clan would undoubtedly cause a stir—opposing the conflict not only in meetings but also by deliberately disrupting operations on the front lines!

In comparison, the people of Mori no Machi are much more sophisticated, but...

We cannot ignore their opinions!

Now is the time to appease them...
