"At that time, the four great ninja villages will seize this opportunity to launch a war, and Konoha will be destroyed under the siege! Hiruzen Sarutobi is weak, only I! Only I can protect Konoha!"
The hysterical roar seemed to affirm the truth he had always firmly believed in.
"Lord Danzo!"
The sound outside the door had barely been heard before they were about to come in, even before anyone answered.
"squeak……"
Uchiha Yun turned around and saw that all the Root members at the entrance were lying on the ground, unable to get up.
Just one look, and it was a complete and utter crushing defeat.
"Back then, White Fang was one of the candidates for Hokage, but your reason was that he was unsuitable, so he died."
"During the Nine-Tails' rampage, your reason was that Root needed to preserve its strength. The Uchiha clan may have been the instigators, which is why the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, died."
"And the Uchiha clan rebelled... Do you really think that you and Hiruzen Sarutobi, the higher-ups of your generation, ever gave the Uchiha a chance?"
Uchiha Yun shook his head slightly as he spoke: "As disciples of Senju Tobirama, neither you nor Sarutobi Hiruzen have learned his techniques."
"By taking Uchiha Kagami as his disciple, Tobirama Senju stabilized the Uchiha clan, but the support he received from the security forces prevented him from gaining support from the lower classes."
"Although his approach wasn't entirely correct, it was far superior to yours."
Danzo chuckled lightly upon hearing this, his expression filled with disdain.
“You’ve been observing this world all along, so you should be aware of the existence of that masked man.”
"The Sharingan of the Uchiha clan is too strong. Once it reaches the Mangekyou Sharingan level, it is comparable to the Kage of the Five Great Shinobi Villages."
"But the Uchiha clan's minds... are all messed up! The one with the Uzumaki mask, and Uchiha Itachi, awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan inevitably involves suffering. Understanding love and then losing it—such a clan has never been stable!"
"Only by killing them all! Only by annihilating the Uchiha clan can Konoha be safe, and only then can it shine again under my leadership!"
Uchiha Yun thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
This scene brought a hint of joy to Danzo's eyes. He knew very well what was going to happen to him, but even if he died, perhaps he could take this guy with him?
The Four Symbols Seal!
But the next moment...
"puff!"
His gaze shifted, and he saw blood gushing from his neck.
"The Uchiha clan is indeed quite insane, and Itachi Uchiha is the best among them. But a guy like you can only destroy Konoha, not make it strong."
"At this level, the Inner Four Symbols Seal is just a joke to me."
As soon as he finished speaking, more and more Root ninjas came from outside the study, drawn by the sound.
"Who are you?!"
"Lord Danzo? You killed Lord Danzo?"
"How is this possible?!"
……
With a sway of figures, Root ninjas fell in droves.
In no time, the entire root area was covered in blood!
Even Yamanaka Fu and Aburame Torune were like ordinary Root members in front of Uchiha Kumo, easily killed.
On the bridge connecting the inside and outside, Uchiha Yun, who was not covered in blood, walked out. At this time, Hiruzen Sarutobi had just arrived.
The strong smell of blood made him frown. The destruction of the roots was already expected, but he still had something to say.
Uchiha Yun looked at the other person: "You should know that you can't stop me, so is there something you need?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi's face was full of bitterness, but he knew that what the other party said was true.
In this world, no one can stop the other.
"You should know the reason for the Uchiha clan's annihilation. Itachi Uchiha did it mostly for his younger brother, so what about Sasuke Uchiha..."
Before he could finish speaking, Uchiha Yun raised his hand and said, "The ninja village system was initially formed by the joining of individual clans. Without clans, what level could Uchiha Itachi possibly reach?"
"Without the Mangekyou Sharingan, no matter how talented you are, you're just a Jonin. If you can't tell what you're relying on, you've been unworthy of living in this world since your clan was wiped out."
"Sasuke will kill him, and I will tell him the so-called truth. He will make the right choice."
As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Un and Sarutobi Hiruzen passed each other.
"Can't we let Uchiha Sasuke stay? I promise! I guarantee this will never happen again! I swear on my life!"
Uchiha Yun, with his back to Hiruzen Sarutobi, chuckled softly.
"You're worried and afraid, aren't you?"
"Fear of the revenge called Uchiha... You know very well what Itachi Uchiha's purpose is, and you understand even better that my existence means how high Sasuke Uchiha can go."
"At that time, Sasuke Uchiha will seek revenge—revenge against Itachi Uchiha, revenge against Konoha, or revenge against the Sarutobi and Shimura clans..."
"But...how can you be afraid of fear?"
Uchiha Yun turned around and looked at him: "All the lives of the clan, from the old man selling pancakes to children who are only one or two years old..."
"You weren't afraid when you could decide their lives with a single word, but now that the roles have simply reversed, you're filled with fear?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi, trembling all over, turned around, his old eyes already bloodshot.
"boom!"
A crisp sound rang out, and a perfectly executed dogeza (a deep, formal prostration) appeared before Uchiha Yun.
"Danzo deserves to die, and I, Hiruzen Sarutobi, deserve to die too! You may take my life, but I only hope to preserve the future of Konoha!"
Unlike Danzo, who refused to admit his mistakes even on his deathbed, in Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart, Konoha, or rather the Sarutobi clan, was always more important than his own life.
It's true that she's power-hungry, and it's also true that she's indecisive.
What he was worried about was Sasuke's future revenge, or rather, revenge from someone who would grow to the level of Madara Uchiha.
He knew very well that Konoha could not afford it. Even if he, Sarutobi, and Shimura were all wiped out, what choice would the Hidden Cloud Village, which stood behind Uchiha Sasuke, make at that time?
How will the four major ninja villages choose?
Konoha, which occupies the rich land of the Land of Fire, is already old and feeble. With a single blow, he is seriously injured, and it is inevitable that the wolves surrounding him will rise up and attack, gathering to devour him.
How did Konoha manage to resist at that time?
Looking at the Hokage kneeling in front of him, Uchiha Yun felt a mix of emotions.
As the village that is the protagonist in my memory, Konoha carries too many scenes, and naturally there are many other factors as well.
"You think your life is worth far too much."
Uchiha Un's voice rang out.
"Your life will naturally be taken by someone. Without you and the roots, all the decay will be eliminated. It's hard to say what the future holds."
Have you ever thought about this?
Hiruzen Sarutobi slightly raised his head and met his gaze.
"If you were the one who sealed the Nine-Tails with the Reaper Death Seal twelve years ago, and if Minato Namikaze were still alive, would the situation be different?"
After he finished speaking, Hiruzen Sarutobi fell silent.
The Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, was known in the ninja world as the Yellow Flash, and encountering him could even lead to abandoning a mission.
In the village, among his peers and subordinates, he was known as "Little Sun." His smile was truly infectious.
Kushina, as a Jinchūriki, was like this, as were the Ino-Shika-Cho trio who carried out the mission together.
But at that time...
"Your generation's era has come to an end. Only by removing the decay and rot that leaves it riddled with holes can the tree be reborn."
The spatial portal opened, and Uchiha Yun vanished from the spot.
……
Uchiha Izumi, who had already packed her things, sat in the living room, while Uchiha Hazuki, who was in the bedroom, also knew the whole story.
However, Izumi did not explain Uchiha Kumo's identity very clearly.
Because she knew that the two worlds were different after all, she was already very content to be able to live like this.
The spatial passage opened, and Uchiha Kumo stepped out.
“Brother, everything is ready.”
"Don't be so reserved, just be natural. If you're ready, then let's go."
"Ah."
……
One week later, at Konoha Hospital.
"Sasuke!!"
Amidst gasps of surprise, Naruto, who had already recovered, suddenly sat up.
After looking around, he fell silent for a moment.
He wasn't stupid; once he realized he was in the hospital, he understood that what was going to happen had already happened.
The crucial question now is: Did Sasuke successfully defect? Was he captured? Or did he successfully leave Konoha?
But no matter what the outcome, Sasuke can no longer be a member of Team 7.
"squeak……"
The door to the ward opened, and Sakura walked in carrying a basin of water. When she saw that Naruto had woken up, she froze on the spot.
"Naruto... Naruto..."
After murmuring, she burst into tears.
A week ago, she was informed that Team 7 had stopped their mission without knowing anything, Naruto was sent to the hospital, and Kakashi-sensei had disappeared.
As for Sasuke... he was even labeled a rogue ninja.
