Konoha: Starting with Sage Mode.

Chapter 114 Scoundrels Deserve to Die

"Hiruzen, she's gone mad, and have you gone mad too? How could you make such an outrageous decision?"

Xiaochun, who was turning over in bed, exclaimed in surprise.

She had no idea what the Third Hokage was thinking. Suddenly, she asked Momoka about Kirito, and after learning about the kid's attitude towards the Uchiha clan, she actually decided to let the Uchiha clan participate in the Nine-Tails inheritance operation.

When did that brat Kirito become so important? His words can actually influence Hiruzen's judgment.

Yes, she doesn't deny that Kirito is important in this Nine-Tails inheritance operation, but he is still just an 8-year-old child who hasn't made any significant contributions to Konoha yet and doesn't have any respectable status. How can he become a bargaining chip in Hiruzen's judgment?

Mitokado Yan also expressed his bewilderment, and like Utatane Koharu, he did not think that Kirito, an 8-year-old child, was very important.

"Enough, Koharu, I'm not crazy. I know very well that you're not the Hokage, so you wouldn't understand how strained Konoha's military is right now. Sending Uchiha clan ninjas to support the border is the best option at present."

Seeing that his old classmate was still against it, the third generation said with a cold face.

He's the Hokage, how could he possibly be crazy?

The reason he asked Momoka that question was because he realized that Momoka had been persuaded by Kirito to come and act as a lobbyist.

As the Hokage, Kirito was naturally aware that he had entered Homura's house.

There were also people in the Uchiha clan who were loyal to him.

Like Danzo, he quickly realized that this was Uchiha Homura's way of getting the Uchiha clan involved in the Nine-Tails inheritance operation through Kirito.

He just didn't expect that Kirito wouldn't come to him directly, but would instead communicate with him through Momoka.

He understood Senju Momoka, a Senju who utterly despised the Uchiha clan, and who deeply understood just how powerful the Uchiha clan was.

Therefore, it is highly unlikely that she would agree to Kirito's request to help the Uchiha clan participate in the Nine-Tails' inheritance operation.

If Kirito hadn't offered her some irresistible offer, she definitely wouldn't have agreed to come here as a mediator.

As for what the conditions for this attraction are, the third generation doesn't know.

But he knew that this condition was most likely the power to defeat the Mangekyou Sharingan.

"What kind of power would be able to defeat the Mangekyou Sharingan?"

The third generation felt both curious and expectant.

Regardless of the circumstances, this power will inevitably belong to Konoha and to the Hokage lineage; that's all he needs to know.

Kirito is, after all, Mito's disciple. He is also a legitimate Hokage descendant and a recipient of the Will of Fire. He is definitely loyal to Konoha, not the Uchiha.

Furthermore, like Kirito, he also hoped that the Uchiha clan could integrate into Konoha.

This Nine-Tailed Fox inheritance operation is indeed a good opportunity to break the ice.

If the Uchiha clan members participate in this Nine-Tails inheritance operation and successfully complete it, then the Uchiha clan can clear themselves of suspicion that they assisted Madara Uchiha in using the Mangekyou Sharingan to control the Nine-Tails to attack Konoha.

By then, many people within Konoha will surely have a different opinion of the Uchiha clan.

This was the opportunity for the Uchiha clan to integrate into Konoha.

As the Hokage, how could he miss such a good opportunity?

The teacher did say that we should be wary of the Uchiha clan, but he also said that he hoped the Uchiha clan could be integrated into Konoha.

What his teacher couldn't do back then, he, as the disciple, must strive to accomplish.

This was the responsibility of the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.

With this thought in mind, the Third Hokage was filled with a sense of responsibility, which strengthened his resolve to involve the Uchiha clan in the Nine-Tails' inheritance.

. . .

"What about the Mangekyou Sharingan? Momoka herself said that Mito-sama will be gone soon. Once the Uchiha clan regains the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan, are you confident you can handle it? Don't be too blindly confident, Hiruzen."

Koharu, seeing that the Third Generation was determined, still refused to back down and stubbornly insisted on her own opinion.

"Koharu Utatane, have you ever truly witnessed the Mangekyou Sharingan? Are you already terrified without even seeing it?"

And in your eyes, is Konoha so vulnerable? Are the younger generation of Konoha so untrustworthy?

Konoha has always been a cradle of geniuses, and the new shoots of Konoha are by no means weak.

Leaving aside distant examples, just consider the three disciples taught by the Third Hokage: Tsunade, Orochimaru, and Jiraiya. These three will undoubtedly become the new pillars of Konoha in the future. Do you really think that any one of them alone wouldn't have the power to deal with a pair of Mangekyou Sharingan?

There are also Sakumo Hatake and Dan Kato, who are outstanding ninjas among the next generation of Konoha. Their strength is by no means inferior to the Sannin. With them, Konoha will definitely have the power to deal with the Mangekyou Sharingan in the future.

Moreover, many members of the Uchiha clan grew up receiving the Will of Fire, and they all stand on the side of Konoha.

At this moment, Tao Hua stepped forward and shouted loudly.

Koharu Utatane's expression changed repeatedly upon hearing this. She wanted to retort, but found the Third Hokage staring coldly at her. Finally, she snorted coldly and said angrily, "Hiruzen, you will definitely regret this decision in the future."

After saying that, she stormed out, slamming the door behind her.

"Hiruzen, Koharu meant no harm. She was just worried about Konoha. Don't misunderstand."

Seeing that the situation was settled, Mitomon Homura simply gave up struggling and then said some good words for his ally, Utatane Koharu.

"Don't worry, I know she was just saying that in anger, I didn't take it to heart."

The third generation nodded expressionlessly.

However, despite his words, the cold look in his eyes as he gazed toward the door revealed his dissatisfaction with Koharu Utatane.

Seeing this, Mitomon Homura sighed and then took his leave.

High-level meetings are no longer what they used to be.

With Danzo gone, and the emergence of Momoka Senju, who is not of one mind with them, the Third Hokage is becoming increasingly willful.

The previous three generations were not like this.

"This can't go on. If Hiruzen continues to act recklessly, constantly breaking the shackles on this beast of the Uchiha clan, he'll eventually be devoured by the Uchiha clan."

Mitokado Homura walked out of the Hokage's office with a worried expression.

"Momoka, let's continue talking about involving the Uchiha clan in the Nine-Tails' inheritance operation. There are still some details that need to be discussed. The power of the Mangekyou Sharingan is ultimately a hidden danger. If we can avoid it as much as possible, we should. You should understand what I mean."

After Mitokado Homura left the Hokage's office, the Third Hokage turned to Momoka and said something.

"Of course, every ninja clan has some scoundrels, and we absolutely cannot allow these scoundrels to have the opportunity to harm Konoha in the future."

Tao Hua's expression instantly turned cold, and she said coldly.

Upon hearing this, the third generation immediately showed a relieved smile.

Well said. They absolutely cannot accept the possibility that these scoundrels will have the opportunity to harm Konoha in the future.

Scoundrels deserve to die!

It's tough for a new author to get ahead, so I hope all my fellow readers will visit often to increase the readership. After you finish reading, I hope you'll vote for this book and invest in it. If you could give me some monthly tickets and rewards, I would be extremely grateful. It's so hard for a new author and a new book.
