Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 211 Danzo's Fate (Please Subscribe)

"Elder Chiyo, this is a duel, get out of the way!"

Although Yekura's tone was weak, her anger was undisguised. She had already seen Rasa being lifted up, and if she missed this opportunity, she might not have such a good chance next time.

"Regardless of who wins or loses, I will not allow the winner to kill the loser, Yekura."

Chiyo sighed and said that she had just begun to think about abdicating when she encountered the matter of Yekura and Rasa fighting to the death; although she did not want to get involved in the village's affairs anymore, the death of either of them would cause trouble for Sunagakure.

"A Fourth Kazekage, a Sand Village hero—neither of you can be harmed, Pakura. I haven't shown favoritism towards Rasa!"

"Since you're not biased towards Luo Sha, then step aside. Otherwise, if he can betray me, he could betray you next time!"

Seeing that Rasa was about to be rescued, Yecang became anxious and prepared to use the Sage's Curse Seal again.

However, her current physical strength was completely insufficient to support the Sage's Curse Seal. As soon as the lines on her neck appeared, Yekura fainted due to exhaustion and collapsed into Chiyo's arms before falling.

"Send the Fourth Hokage for treatment. I'll take care of Yotsuba!"

Chiyo took out a puppet, then had it pick up Yekura. She then addressed the Sand Ninja present, saying, "Tell everyone not to spread rumors. The Anbu are to immediately monitor the village, and Ebizo, you immediately detain Muraki and investigate this matter thoroughly!"

If what Yekura said is true, then the most likely person to know about this is Muraki, who negotiated with Kirigakure and is also a high-ranking Sand Village official who supports Rasa.

If an investigation is conducted, now is the best time for Rosa to fall into a coma.

"Okay, sister."

Ebizo said calmly, and then went to summon the Anbu. Although they were all high-ranking members of the Sand Village, there were still differences in their positions.

------------

In Konoha Village, Sakumo Hatake investigated all the Wood Release bloodline limits, but still had no information about the enemy who was out there and could use Wood Release bloodline limits.

However, Danzo is highly suspicious. According to Orochimaru, when he transplanted the Wood Release bloodline limit into Danzo, he brought several people to watch, and it is very likely that he learned the transplantation method of the Wood Release bloodline limit at that time.

Orochimaru didn't know whether Danzo had actually figured it out, but that didn't stop him from saying so, since Danzo certainly had that idea.

Danzo became even more suspicious, since it was unknown what he had been doing outside and how many Root ninjas he had not yet summoned back.

Meanwhile, in the Hokage's office, a heated discussion was taking place about how to deal with Danzo.

His unauthorized actions caused enormous losses to Konoha Village, and by all accounts, he should have been executed and his body recovered.

However, after hearing that Sakumo Hatake planned to deal with Danzo, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Homura Mitokado, and Koharu Utatane went to the Hokage Building to plead for Danzo's life.

"Sakumo, Danzo has made great contributions to Konoha before. We can't execute him just because of this. That would be unfair to Danzo."

Hiruzen Sarutobi pleaded, saying that besides Danzo being his childhood friend, they also needed Danzo, and Danzo was also very powerful.

Koharu Utatane chimed in, "Yes, the Fourth Hokage was able to make Danzo achieve merit; he was very strong."

Seeing that his two friends had said everything he wanted to say, Mitokado Homura could only nod and say, "Fourth Hokage, Hiruzen is right."

Sakumo Hatake, resting his chin on his hands, said, "Danzo is very uncooperative right now and won't reveal anything to the interrogation team. But since this whole thing started because of him, Third Hokage, I've already been very accommodating to him."

"Danzo might have already brought back everyone from Root."

"Maybe? Third Hokage, are you sure you want to use such a vague term?"

Uchiha Yang said, "Ninja intelligence requires extreme caution. Even the slightest mistake can have very serious consequences. It's laughable that you're trying to excuse Danzo with these words."

Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt anger rising in his heart, but he showed no emotion on his face.

The relationship between the Uchiha clan and the Sarutobi Ino-Shika-Cho trio has always been strained. They have never interacted and rarely act as teammates, even when they team up. So now that Hiruzen Sarutobi is no longer Hokage, Yoichi Uchiha has stopped bothering with the formalities.

"It's inevitable that ninja clans can't be confined to Konoha. The Uchiha often do business outside, but the premise is that they don't cause trouble for the village. Since the Rinnegan, how many ninjas have died in the village?"

"Even in war, we wouldn't lose so many elite ninjas; but Konoha has already lost forty-three Chunin and eleven Jonin, and it takes us more than ten years to train a Jonin!"

"This could have been avoided from the beginning!"

The last sentence immediately caused Jiraiya's expression to turn bitter. Half of the village's ninjas who died because of Nagato could be attributed to Danzo, and the other half could be entirely attributed to him.

He didn't report the information about the Rinnegan when he was a child, and he was also stubborn and wanted to fight Nagato, which led to the deaths of Minato and many Konoha ninjas.

Hiruzen Sarutobi brought him here today, intending for him to speak up and plead for Danzo.

But after hearing this, Jiraiya had neither the mood nor the face to plead for Danzo.

However, Nara Shikaku spoke up, "Fourth Hokage, although Danzo has made many mistakes, he still has considerable strength. If he has the intention to repent, it would be a better choice to let him contribute to Konoha."

"Since Jonin Shikaku thinks Danzo has any intention of repenting, let's test him."

Uchiha Yoichi said, then called in an Anbu member and said to everyone in the room, "Now have the Anbu question Danzo about everything he's been doing outside the village recently. If he can report the truth to the village, then he'll be considered to have genuinely repented, and we can reinstate his Jonin rank. We can even give him my position as Hokage's assistant."

"But if Danzo is still hiding it, then let him live as an ordinary person. There is a kind of sealing technique that can make a person no longer a ninja. This kind of punishment should be considered light for Danzo."

After saying that, Uchiha Yoichi glanced at Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others, then continued, "Getting him to confess shouldn't be too difficult, right? What do you say, Third Hokage, Nara Jonin?"

Orochimaru chuckled and then chimed in, "Yoichi-kun, how do you determine whether Danzo was telling the truth?"

"This will have to be left to Jonin Inoichi. The Yamanaka clan's secret technique should be able to see all of Danzo's memories."

After Uchiha Yoichi finished speaking, some people in the room looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Nara Shikaku and the others also realized that Uchiha Yoichi had set a blatant trap for him using Hiruzen Sarutobi's words; since Danzo had already repented, it was only right that he report the information to the village.

If he were to conceal anything during this last chance, it would be considered disloyalty to the village, and his dismissal would be understandable. Moreover, Uchiha Yoichi had given him a great opportunity; if he reported the truth, he could not only regain his Jonin rank, but might even become the Hokage's assistant.

"That's fine."

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed inwardly, thinking, "Danzo, this is your last chance."

"Alright, let the Anbu go then. Tell Danzo that this is the Third Hokage's wish, and it's his last chance."

After Uchiha Yoichi waved his hand, the Anbu nodded and immediately headed to Konoha Prison.

The group did not leave, but waited in the Hokage's office for news to come back.

After a while, the ANBU returned, carrying a report of the interrogation. They said, "Lord Fourth Hokage, Lord Yoichi, Lord Third Hokage, this is the result of the interrogation of Danzo."

When the group took a look, they discovered that Danzo had done quite a lot, but few of his deeds were helpful to Konoha; they were all selfish acts that strengthened Root.

He secretly accepted employment and abducted talented children. After reading this, Hatake Sakumo frowned. He suddenly didn't want to agree to the bet between Uchiha Yoichi and Sarutobi Hiruzen, and directly sentenced Danzo.

"Jonin Inoichi, I'll go with you."

Uchiha Yoichi chuckled and said, "If the Yamanaka clan's secret techniques don't work, my Sharingan genjutsu will definitely make him talk."

"Then let's go together, Clan Chief Yang."

Yamanaka Inoichi sighed inwardly; this was a warning not to hide anything.

Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others followed, as it concerned whether Danzo could continue to be a ninja.

After being questioned by the Anbu, Danzo was taken to the interrogation room. Upon seeing so many ninjas, including Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo immediately asked, "Hiruzen, what's going on?"

"Sharingan Genjutsu!"

With a single glance from Uchiha Yang, Danzo's voice abruptly ceased, and he was immediately subdued, his eyes glazed over.

Even if he were to regain his eye power, it would still be easy for him to hypnotize someone who cannot use chakra with the three-tomoe technique.

"It's up to you, Jonin Inoichi."

After Uchiha Yoichi finished speaking, Yamanaka Inoichi instructed the interrogation team to connect the equipment to Danzo's body and head, and then placed his hand on Danzo's head.

"The art of mind-to-body transmission!"

After using the family's secret technique, Yamanaka Inoichi directly invaded Danzo's body, then quickly accessed the memories in his brain and began to review recent events.

At the same time, the instruments connected outside also transmitted what Yamanaka Inoichi had seen.

Time passed slowly, and after about ten minutes, Yamanaka Inoichi finally released the secret technique, looking somewhat tired, and said, "That's about it. The memories after Danzo left the village have been recorded. Clan Chief Yoichi, would you like to check them?"

"Wait a minute, let's see if Danzo is truly repentant first."

Uchiha Yoichi picked up the memories transmitted by Yamanaka Inoichi and began to read them. After a while, a smile appeared on his face. He handed the memories to Hatake Sakumo and then said to the Anbu, "Have Uchiha Mina come over here. Tell her I'm looking for her."

"Yes."

After finishing his speech, the Anbu immediately left the Hokage Building.

Upon hearing Uchiha Yoichi's words, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that Danzo was definitely hiding something, and there were many things he was hiding that would prevent him from becoming a ninja in the future.

Sakumo Hatake's expression grew increasingly grim. Seventeen Root ninjas were hidden away, still amassing wealth outside when Danzo returned. Last month, the village received a request to exterminate a clan in the Land of Hot Springs, which was very likely orchestrated by Danzo.

Although Uchiha Yoichi had informed him about the assassination of the Star Ninja, Hatake Sakumo had not sent anyone to investigate because of the information about the Rinnegan.

Before returning, Danzo maintained contact with Hanzo, stole the secret techniques and orphans from the small ninja village, and ambushed caravans. Danzo did almost everything that could strengthen Root's power.

Hatake Sakumo regretted not being more forceful earlier, but thankfully it wasn't too late: "According to the intelligence above, arrest the Shimura clan's ninjas and imprison them. From now on, all members of the Shimura clan will be subject to screening when entering or leaving the village. We need to carefully consider their admission to the Ninja Academy."

Upon hearing Sakumo Hatake's words, Hiruzen Sarutobi had only one thought in his mind: the Shimura family was finished!

Not to mention ninja clans, ninjas within clans will gradually disappear and will never reappear.

"Yang Yi, were you looking for me?"

A short while later, Mina Uzumaki also arrived. She was then called to Yang Yi's side by Uchiha, who pointed at Danzo and said a few words to her.

Upon hearing this, Mina Uzumaki immediately patted her chest and assured her, "No problem! As long as there are three interconnected seals, unless you're a Jinchuriki, you'll never be able to accumulate chakra in your entire life!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others didn't want to see this scene, so they turned around and left the interrogation room.

Subsequently, Mina quickly placed three seals on Danzo, and the three seals were interconnected, making it unlikely that even Kushina could break them, unless she disregarded Danzo's life, and even if she did break them, Danzo would be nearly dead by then.

"Bastards, what have you done to this old man?"

Sharingan!

Uchiha Yoichi then cast a genjutsu on Danzo, implying that he would sweep the ground in front of Konoha every day from now on.

If Danzo still had chakra, he could slowly resist this genjutsu, but now, he has no choice but to obey; moreover, Uchiha Yoichi plans to have the guards cast a genjutsu on him every now and then.

"Yoichi-kun, are you alright?"

"It's just sweeping the ground at the Konoha gate. Elder Danzo likes Konoha so much, he'd definitely be willing to do this little job."

"Is it just sweeping the floor, Yoichi-kun? If it weren't for you just now, I would have taken back your and the Third Hokage's decision and dealt with Danzo according to the village rules."

Hatake Sakumo, unusually serious, said to Uchiha Yoichi, "The area around the gate is too small. Let's sweep the whole area, inside and outside Konoha. The village needs clean ground too."

"."

You're going a bit too far, Fourth Generation.

However, Uchiha Yoichi still modified the genjutsu suggestion, so Danzo would have to sweep the floor for sixteen hours a day. It's unknown how long he could last without using chakra.

Danzo concealed the things he had done for two reasons: first, some things were truly unspeakable, as revealing them would have brought him to his death; second, he felt that Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others still needed him, so he kept waiting for Hiruzen to rescue him.

However, Danzo had been away from the village for a long time, and when he returned, he was imprisoned and had no idea of ​​the changes in the village.

He brought this upon himself.

I'm asking for your votes for November!
