Being in Konoha, a disgrace to the Uchiha clan.

"Greetings, Lord Hokage!"

The moment Hiruzen Sarutobi stepped out of the building, the villagers became incredibly excited, their eyes filled with admiration as they looked at him.

This is the shadow of their village, the strongest being in the village.

It is also their spiritual pillar, and even, to some extent, their faith!

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled, waved his hand, and the surroundings immediately fell silent.

Look, this is the prestige I've built in the hearts of the villagers over the years!

Hiruzen Sarutobi was very pleased with himself, and a smile remained on his face.

The next moment, he pretended to be greatly surprised as if he had suddenly seen Hiashi Hyuga.

"Hiashi, what's wrong with you?"

"Injustice? Could it be that an enemy invaded and harmed your people?"

"How is it? Is it serious? I'll send a medical team over to help right away."

"Don't worry, the Hyuga clan is part of Konoha. As the Hokage, it is my duty to protect every villager."

"Never abandon, never give up!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi delivered a passionate speech, moving countless villagers to tears.

As expected of the Hokage, as expected of the inheritor and promoter of the Will of Fire.

He truly deserves to be called the epitome of shamelessness in the Naruto world!

Emmmmm......

The last sentence was, of course, added by Ye Feng.

Among a group of villagers who seemed to have been injected with chicken blood, he turned his head and looked at Hiashi Hyuga meaningfully.

Hiashi Hyuga hesitated for a moment, recalling what Ye Feng had told him before, and the fate of the Hyuga clan.

He gritted his teeth and suddenly shouted at Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Lord Hokage, Lord Danzo sent me here to plead my innocence. He has a few questions for you!"

what?

It's Danzo again!

Ok?

Why say it again?

P.S.: To make up for yesterday's missed chapter, the author is going to write an extra chapter.

Chapter 036 The Third Generation Sees Everyone as a Thief (Bonus Chapter 1)

Danzo!

It was you!

Once Hiruzen Sarutobi realized what was happening, he was immediately enraged.

The Cloud Village envoy is still in Konoha, yet such an absurd and outrageous scene unfolded in front of the Hokage Building.

Was Danzo the mastermind behind all of this?

Damn it!

What exactly is Danzo thinking?

They're hanging around with Uchiha Yefeng and the Hyuga clan, and they even sent them to cause trouble here?

Has he forgotten the days when we ran together in the sunset? Has he forgotten the promise we made?

We made a promise.

I'll be the Hokage, and you'll be the Hokage's assistant.

Let's join hands to build Konoha into the strongest village in the ninja world, and let's spread the seeds of the Will of Fire throughout the entire world!

Danzo, have you forgotten everything?

How could you do this?

Hiruzen Sarutobi clenched his fists, his heart aching so much he could hardly breathe.

Understood!

Everything is clear now!

No wonder Danzo brought so many people to ambush Uchiha Yefeng, but the latter didn't even get hurt, not even a hair on his head.

No wonder Danzo stayed at home afterward and never came out; he and Koharu's men never saw each other.

Danzo must be feeling guilty; he must be plotting something in secret.

Danzo, I've long seen that you're resentful and want to oust me so you can become Hokage yourself, haven't you?

You traitor!

You have let me down!

You have betrayed the friendship we've built over the years!

Hiruzen Sarutobi roared and screamed in his heart.

Just then.

Hiashi Hyuga's questioning voice rang out.

"Lord Hokage, Lord Danzo sent me to ask you why you harmed the Uchiha clan members. Aren't the Uchiha clan also part of the village?"

coming!

Hiruzen Sarutobi focused his mind and quickly denied it.

"Nonsense, when did I ever intend to harm the Uchiha clan?"

"I've said it before, every villager is an indispensable part of Konoha. I will only protect them, and I will never harm them!"

"The Hokage's assistant must have misheard, or been tricked."

However, Hiashi Hyuga was not about to give up.

"But I heard that Uchiha Yefeng kicked you twice, Hokage-sama. Doesn't the Hokage harbor any resentment at all?"

Why the hell do you have to bring up something you shouldn't be talking about?

My wounds have only just healed, and you're already reopening old wounds?

As expected, this Hiashi Hyuga was sent by Danzo. Given Danzo's personality, he had ridiculed him like this countless times before.

Hiruzen Sarutobi cursed inwardly, but smiled broadly on his face.

"How could that be? It's just a minor injury. How could I possibly hold a grudge? It's all in the past. I haven't even taken it to heart."

Just then, a lazy voice rang out.

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect the Hokage to be so magnanimous, not taking being kicked twice to heart at all. How about I kick you again?"

Uchiha Yoru!

A sharp killing intent flashed in Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes, but he quickly concealed it.

Although Hiashi Hyuga said that everything was orchestrated by Danzo, Hiruzen Sarutobi had every reason to believe that Yoru Uchiha had come up with many wicked ideas.

This scourge, this scoundrel, will not bring peace to Konoha until this scourge is eliminated.

If I had known, I would have taken matters into my own hands, and things wouldn't have gotten into this mess.

Unbeknownst to him, Danzo had actually joined forces with the Uchiha and Hyuga clans.

He's trying to force me to resign!

It is unknown whether the Ino-Shika-Cho family, or other families, had any connection with Danzo.

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Hiruzen Sarutobi's mind.

Everyone looks like a thief to him, and every ninja seems suspicious.

He now has some doubts about even the guards he personally selected.

I am the Hokage, and I will be the Hokage for life!

Even if Minato had become the fourth patriarch, the power would still have to be in my hands!

Danzo, your attempt to stage a coup is doomed to failure!

Despite his burning rage, Hiruzen Sarutobi maintained a smile on his face.

He merely glanced at Ye Feng, ignoring his provocation.

There's no other way but to ignore it.

He had experienced Ye Feng's groin kick twice, and each time the pain was so intense that he could hardly breathe.

With everyone watching, how could Hiruzen Sarutobi dare to take the risk?

"Hiashi, Danzo sent you to say this?"

"He must have misunderstood. You should go back first. Don't worry, I will personally explain to Danzo later."

Go find him and settle the score with him yourself!

Hiruzen Sarutobi silently added a sentence in his mind.

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd stirred.

The villagers showed signs of dispersing.

Seeing this, Hiashi Hyuga panicked, picked up the door panel, and slammed it to the ground again.

"Bang!" The ground was smashed open, leaving spiderweb-like cracks.

Hiashi Hyuga loudly questioned.

"Lord Hokage, Lord Danzo sent me here to ask why the Hyuga clan is offering Byakugan to the Cloud Village as compensation for the abduction of my daughter by the Cloud Village envoy?"

what?
