Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 36 Knocking the Shimura family to death (please follow up)

"Yoichi-kun, Kakashi's return this time is all thanks to your help; without your care, Kakashi might not have..."

After entering the security headquarters building, Hatake Sakumo spoke to Uchiha Yoichi.

As a father, even if Hatake Sakumo is usually good-tempered, he felt angry when he heard the news that his son had almost died because a fellow villager had leaked information.

Sakumo Hatake knew that Kakashi and Uchiha Yang had teamed up. He trusted Kakashi's judgment, so he didn't interfere much. Moreover, the village's higher-ups must have known about this.

Even so, Kakashi and Uchiha Yoichi's team still fell victim to the schemes of the village's higher-ups, who also leaked their mission to the Hidden Cloud Village.

This is something that Hatake Sakumo absolutely cannot tolerate. The Hidden Leaf Village was established by the previous generation to protect the next generation, not to persecute them for their own selfish reasons.

"Senior Hatake, you know what happened, so I won't hide it from you anymore; I'm 100% certain that Danzo was behind this, so capturing the Shimura clan is my revenge. I almost died because of the village's betrayal, and I can't swallow this anger without getting my revenge!"

After Uchiha Yang finished speaking, he took out the outpost map drawn by the Iwa ninja and continued, "This is the evidence to convict the Shimura family. How it got there is not very important, but it can be seen that the Iwa ninja are already restless and have the idea of ​​expanding their interests in the Land of Grass."

"It seems the ninja world is in turmoil again."

Hatake Sakumo looked at the map drawn by the Iwa ninja and the markings on it. As long as Uchiha Yoichi insisted that it was found in the Shimura family, then they would be nailed to the spot.

Even if we explain, it won't help. Are we supposed to search Uchiha Yoichi's brain?

"I understand. Let's leave it at that then, Yang Yi. I've witnessed Danzo's decisiveness firsthand. These people probably won't implicate him."

Sakumo Hatake began to warn him, saying that he had served under Danzo during the Second Shinobi World War and had personally witnessed Danzo's ruthlessness.

Sakumo Hatake disagreed with Danzo's actions at the time, as Danzo was willing to sacrifice more than a dozen of his own men for a great victory, and the two even had a dispute.

However, Danzo was the commander of the battlefield at the time, so even if Sakumo Hatake disapproved, there was nothing he could do. In the end, the argument ended with Danzo being transferred away.

Although they might be able to crush this group of Shimura's people this time, it's not certain that Danzo will be implicated.

"I know, Hatake-senpai. After all, the Third Hokage wouldn't just stand by and watch his old teammate get hurt!"

Uchiha Yoichi sneered and said, "He can even forgive assassination. I really can't imagine how low Hiruzen Sarutobi's bottom line can be in tolerating Danzo."

While this incident doesn't completely condemn Danzo, Uchiha Yoichi is known for holding grudges and will never forget Danzo's "care" towards him.

"Let's go, Yangyi-kun, I need to report to the Hokage."

Sakumo Hatake said, then took the evidence concerning the Shimura family, along with some other 'evidence,' and walked out of the guard post.

Once they came out, everyone outside looked at Sakumo Hatake and Yoichi Uchiha.

Holding the evidence, Hatake Sakumo approached the Third Hokage and whispered, "Hokage-sama, this was collected from the Shimura clan. It contains the Iwagakure's expansion plan in the Land of Grass, as well as remnants of trade contracts from merchants in the Land of Earth."

These were all obtained by Uchiha Yoichi during his two previous missions, and now he's using them on the Shimura clan.

After reading the evidence that Sakumo Hatake had given him, Hiruzen Sarutobi's face immediately turned grim. He then turned around and said in a deep voice, "Danzo, you are now relieved of your position as Hokage's assistant and are to be investigated by the Anbu."

"Hiruzen, you..."

"Until the Dark Division has completed its investigation, the Dark Division will take over Root!"

"No, I..."

"Enough, Danzo! I am the Hokage!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi raised his voice and rebuked Danzo, silencing him completely. However, judging from the bulging veins on his hands, Danzo was clearly furious.

After discussing the punishment of Danzo, Hiruzen Sarutobi turned to Fugaku Uchiha and said, "Clan Head Fugaku, since the evidence against those people is conclusive, let's hand them over to the police force. They should be dealt with according to Konoha's regulations!"

After saying that, Hiruzen Sarutobi adjusted his Hokage hat and left.

The evidence has been obtained by someone else. Although Hiruzen Sarutobi knew that Danzo would not do anything to harm Konoha, this evidence may also be information obtained by Yoichi Uchiha during a mission.

But Uchiha Yoichi was able to hold out until now to bring it out, precisely to crush the Shimura clan.

After Hiruzen Sarutobi left, Danzo also left with a grim face. With these two groups gone, only the security team remained at the scene.

Uchiha Yang said, "Masato-senpai, Yokokawa-senpai, just put those people in jail. There shouldn't be any problems for now. Thank you for your help."

Uchiha Masato nodded and said, "No problem, there won't be much else to do after that."

Uchiha Yokokawa patted Uchiha Yoichi on the shoulder and said, "Yoichi-kun, if you can defeat me, I'll admire you."

"I will do my best, Yokokawa-senpai."

After saying that, Uchiha Yoichi took his leave and left, hardly speaking to Uchiha Fugaku the entire time.

Uchiha Yoichi's actions just now meant that there was no room for reconciliation between him and Uchiha Fugaku.

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

"Yang Yi, although the result was good this time, you were too impulsive."

After putting down his teacup, Kenji Uchiha said slowly that he had quietly gone to the vicinity of the security team and had witnessed almost the entire course of events.

He was very pleased with Uchiha Yoichi's decisiveness and courage, but Uchiha Yoichi was too bold. Even he was a little frightened by that slash just now, as if he, Uchiha Kenji, was the one being slashed, not Uchiha Fugaku.

"You can raise your sword against Danzo, since he's suspected of colluding with Iwa ninja, but you can't raise your sword against the clan head. No matter how much you hate him, Fugaku Uchiha is still the clan head of the Uchiha clan."

"Although you embarrassed Fugaku today, once the news gets out, your reputation will definitely be both praised and criticized."

"We'll need to find a way to remedy this situation, otherwise, between Fugaku and you, most people will probably still choose Fugaku."

Kenji Uchiha kept talking, and although he was quite rambling, it was clear that he was speaking from Yoichi Uchiha's perspective, and he was practically saying that he wanted to train Yoichi as the clan leader.

"I understand, Elder Kenji. I will be more careful in the future."

Uchiha Yang said with gratitude, "I owe a lot to Uchiha Kenji for backing me up today. Otherwise, I would have had a hard time getting any benefit from Danzo except for a mutually destructive approach."

"As for the Shimura family, there will be many opportunities in the future. They also have businesses outside the village. I will handle this matter. If there is an opportunity to fight against the Shimura family ninjas, Yoichi-kun, you will be in charge."

Kenji Uchiha nodded and said, "Reputation and winning over the clansmen are the two things we need to do next. If we do these two things well, we can eliminate most of the impact of today's events. After all, the clansmen who went today all hope that the Uchiha clan can break free from the situation of endless compromise."

"However, you need to keep a low profile for a while, so don't take on any missions for now."

"Also, come with me to see the Grand Elder. Once we get there, don't say a word. Oh, and bring a portion of the mutton that was delivered yesterday."

Just to clarify, updating three times a week is too fast. I mean, the word count and recommendation pace of the new book. Updating too quickly might result in fewer recommendations. Once the recommendations are confirmed, I'll switch to updating three times a week for a few days, then two times a week for a few days. The main thing is to slow it down, otherwise, not getting recommendations during the new book period would be too detrimental.

By the way, I'd like to ask for some investment. You've probably been reading this for about ten minutes, so please click here. There are too few investors.
