Konoha: I'm an Uchiha, and I started by proposing to Rin Nohara.

Chapter 147 I know nothing

Do you know what you're saying?

Danzo stared at Uchiha Ike with a somber expression, asking the question word by word.

"Of course I know."

Faced with Danzo's accusations, Uchiha Ike didn't react much, only nodding: "But all your people are dead."

He came to deliver a happy news report, so why is this Dark One of Konoha so unhappy?

"you...

""

Danzo laughed in exasperation. Did this Uchiha brat really think the Root was easy to mess with?

Having barely escaped once, they dare to come and provoke me? They're incredibly audacious!

The ninjas he placed near the solitary confinement room were all core members of Root. They weren't stupid enough to not know how to use an umbrella in the rain. Even if they couldn't win, they would retreat in time. Who could kill them all?

Besides, this is Konoha Village, who would dare to lay a hand on his Root members?

Tsunade frowned, feeling that things were becoming increasingly complicated.

She leaned closer to Uchiha Ike, gently tugged at his sleeve from behind, and whispered, "You go out first, now."

""

Given the current situation, she did not want Uchiha Ike to appear in front of the Third Hokage and Shimura Danzo.

But Uchiha Ike turned his head and met Tsunade's gaze.

He blinked and gave a familiar smile.

Tsunade paused slightly, staring intently at the necklace around the other person's neck.

That was the necklace I gave him yesterday.

"You..." Tsunade pursed her lips, lowered Uchiha Ike's sleeve, and said nothing more.

"Uchiha Ike, what do you mean by that?" Hiruzen Sarutobi asked, frowning as he looked at Uchiha Ike.

"It means they're all dead." Uchiha Ike was somewhat helpless.

Why don't these two old men believe him?

Just as he was pondering how to explain it clearly.

A hurried sound of footsteps came from the corridor.

"Hokage-sama!"

Minato Namikaze walked in, closing the door behind him, and muttered in confusion, "Huh? Why didn't you close the door..."

""

Minato Namikaze was shocked to find four people standing in the Hokage's room.

"Why are there so many people?"

Hokage, Tsunade, Uchiha Ike...

Upon seeing Danzo there, Minato Namikaze's eyes widened: "Lord Danzo, what are you doing here?!"

"?" Danzo's lips twitched. Why did it feel like everyone he met today had lost their minds?

"If I'm not here, then where should I be?" he asked, displeased.

"That's not what I meant..." Minato shook his head, seemingly wanting to say something but stopping himself.

"What happened, Minato?" Hiruzen Sarutobi looked over and asked.

His intuition told him that something must have happened.

Minato Namikaze reported in a low voice: "The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki... has gone berserk."

"What!?"

Apart from Uchiha Ike, everyone present stared at Minato with astonishment.

That's right...

"Faced with the bewildered crowd, Minato Namikaze nodded. "The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki suddenly went berserk in the solitary confinement room."

He gave Uchiha Ike a complicated look. According to the intelligence, Uchiha Ike had just left the confinement room not long before Killer Bee went berserk.

Minato composed himself, not having time to ponder the reasons, because there were more pressing matters at hand.

"The Anbu and medical teams are struggling to stay afloat, Hokage-sama, I've come to request reinforcements!"

"Wait," Danzo stepped forward, frowning as he looked into Minato's eyes, "Where are my Root members?"

He also planted Root people around him. Why didn't Minato Namikaze mention these subordinates?

Meeting Danzo's gaze, Minato Namikaze paused for a moment, then said, "...They're all dead."

"?"

Danzo growled in disbelief, trying to grab Minato by the collar: "Say that again!?"

Minato took a step back, avoiding Danzo's hand, and said with a forced smile, "Everyone in Root has sacrificed themselves."

""

"and..

"And what? Tell me!" Danzo practically roared.

"And the rampaging Eight-Tails is charging north of the village..."

'

North of the confinement cell... that's the direction of the Root base!

BOOM!

Before Minato could finish speaking, Danzo burst through the door, leaving behind four people with varying expressions.

Tsunade looked thoughtfully at Uchiha Ike, noticing that he remained calm, and her eyes flickered slightly.

"Come with me."

Before the other two could react, she grabbed Uchiha Ike's arm and pulled him out of the Hokage's room.

Tsunade led Uchiha Ike all the way to the outside of the Hokage Building.

"What exactly did you do?"

After arriving at an open space, Tsunade asked Uchiha Ike.

"I didn't do anything," Uchiha Ike said innocently, shrugging.

"No one would believe you..." Tsunade's cheek twitched.

She knew Minato Namikaze; he was practically Jiraiya's apprentice, having learned and improved upon the Second Hokage's Flying Thunder God Technique.

As it turned out, Uchiha Ike's ability to transmit messages was even faster than Namikaze Minato's.

That means that Uchiha Ike already knew that the Eight-Tails was going to go berserk before the incident even happened.

Furthermore, given that Uchiha Ike recently clashed with Danzo, Tsunade finds it hard to believe that this matter has nothing to do with Uchiha Ike.

"Tell me now," Tsunade said threateningly, raising her fist.

"I didn't do anything," Uchiha Ike chuckled and told the truth, "It's just that I have a friend who told me he doesn't want to go back yet and asked me to help him."

"And then?" Tsunade immediately understood that Uchiha Ike's friend was Killer Bee, who was supposed to be waiting for the Cloud Village envoy in the confinement room.

So what exactly did Uchiha Ike say to Killer Bee?

"And then? And then I had no choice," Uchiha Ike said, feeling wronged. "So I could only refuse him, and then we parted on bad terms."

"However..." He changed the subject, "Before leaving, he asked me to invite the Root people in, saying that he had some important information to tell Danzo. Although I had a very bad impression of Root, I still went to inform Root for the sake of the village, and the Root people did go into the confinement room."

"The others in the Dark Division can testify to this."

For the sake of the village...

Tsunade covered her forehead speechlessly, and followed up on Uchiha Ike's question, asking, "What do you think they're talking about in there?"

Of course she knew that what Uchiha Ike said was all a lie, but more than knowing the truth, she wanted to help Uchiha Ike cover up the truth.

"I can't figure it out. Maybe they had a conflict inside." Uchiha Ike shook his head. "Anyway, not long after I left the confinement room, Killer Bee suddenly went berserk. A terrifying aura erupted from the confinement room, and it felt like it was going to destroy the entire village."

Uchiha Ike spread his hands, "It's normal for a genin like me to be scared, right? So I rushed to the Hokage Building to report it. It turns out that you and Danzo-sama were also in the Hokage Room. What a coincidence."

"What a load of rubbish..."

'

Tsunade muttered to herself, but her heart was warmed.

She knew that Uchiha Ike was probably afraid that she would suffer when she confronted those two old guys, so he deliberately came to provoke Shimura Danzo.

"But how do you know where the Root's base is?" Tsunade asked, puzzled.

This is another source of confusion for her.

Danzo's expression just now clearly indicated that the direction the Eight-Tails left was the Root's base and stronghold; otherwise, he would never have been so angry.

"I don't know," Uchiha Ike said with a smile, holding up one finger. "Oh, right, I dreamt of a woman wearing glasses yesterday. She asked me to express my gratitude to you, teacher. Do you have any clues about it?"

"So it's Nonou..."

"9

Tsunade uttered Nono's name with a somewhat complicated expression.

Now she finally knew where Root's intelligence came from.
