"Tell me, Shisui, what exactly happened?" the Third Hokage asked with some difficulty, while also preparing for the worst.
Uchiha Shisui took a deep breath and recounted everything that had happened that night, including the abilities of the eyes that Uchiha Touhuan had taken from him, without daring to conceal anything.
The Third Hokage's expression grew increasingly grave as he listened. To be honest, he had already mentally prepared himself for the Uchiha clan's formal rebellion, but the information Shisui brought was far more serious than that.
"Touhuan?" The Third Hokage had lit his pipe at some point, and after exhaling a long puff of smoke, the image of Uchiha Touhuan came to mind.
In the Third Hokage's memory, this Uchiha, who was on par with Shisui and made great contributions in the Third Shinobi World War, was not like the arrogant Uchiha. Although he was a bit more aloof and didn't like to talk much compared to Shisui, his "smiling law enforcement" policy implemented in the police force was widely praised by the villagers and made a great contribution to easing the relationship between the villagers and the Uchiha clan. Originally, Hiruzen Sarutobi thought that this was also an Uchiha with the Will of Fire like his former comrade Uchiha Kagami, but he did not expect that he had such a conspiracy in the dark. Moreover, the other party now had the power of two pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan.
"Lord Hokage, you must be careful! Don't give Touhuan any opportunity!" Uchiha Shisui warned.
"I understand, Shisui. Don't worry, things haven't gotten to the worst yet." Hiruzen Sarutobi said, smoking a cigarette, to comfort Shisui. "Go and get your eyes fixed first."
"Lord Hokage!" Shisui exclaimed anxiously.
“Even if he controls me with your eyes, his plot will not succeed, Shisui. You must understand that the reason a Hokage is the Hokage is because everyone in the village recognizes the Will of Fire. If he thinks that controlling me will allow him to control the entire Hidden Leaf Village, then he is sorely mistaken!” Hiruzen Sarutobi patted Shisui on the shoulder and said, “So, go with peace of mind. We still need your strength to stop his plot.”
"Hokage-sama..." Hiruzen Sarutobi's words made Shisui choke up, "I understand! I will definitely stop him!"
……
After Uchiha Shisui was taken to have an eye transplant, a figure leaning on a cane slowly emerged from the shadows of the Hokage's office.
"Hiruzen, what are you still hesitating for!" The newcomer saw Hiruzen Sarutobi sitting silently in the Hokage's office chair and immediately said urgently, "Do you want to become the puppet of that inherently evil Uchiha brat?"
"Danzo, calm down." Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at his old partner. "Things haven't gotten to that point yet."
"Uchiha Touhuan has clearly been planning to rebel for a long time. If we continue to sit and wait for our deaths, it will be too late!" Danzo said angrily when he saw that Hiruzen Sarutobi was still hesitating. "Furthermore, the Uchiha have long harbored rebellious intentions. When they find out that Uchiha Touhuan has awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, they will probably rise up today! We must strike first and capture Uchiha Touhuan!"
"Enough! Danzo! I am the Hokage!" Hiruzen Sarutobi roared.
"Hiruzen! You'll regret this!"
"boom!"
After Danzo slammed the door and left, Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep drag of his cigarette and looked out at the night sky.
Based on his understanding of Danzo, Hiruzen Sarutobi would definitely lead a group to intercept and kill Uchiha Touhuan in secret. Hiruzen Sarutobi was also happy to see this happen. If he succeeded, then everyone would be happy. If Danzo failed, it would just be Danzo's personal behavior and would have nothing to do with him, the Hokage. This was an unspoken understanding between the two of them over the years.
"These are truly turbulent times," Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed in the smoke-filled Hokage's office.
……
The sun rose as usual the next morning.
After waking up from his coma, Uchiha Touhuan quickly washed up and headed to work at the police station.
Uchiha Touhuan had just entered his office and hadn't even settled in when Uchiha Fugaku, the captain of the security team and also the head of the Uchiha clan, walked in.
"Douhuan, get ready. There's an urgent mission in the village. You'll be going with Inahisa and Zaidou, and you'll be leading the team," Fugaku Uchiha said with a stern face.
“I understand.” Uchiha Touhuan nodded, not surprised at all, but rather feeling that the mission had come a little too early.
"Are the people on the Hokage's side really that impatient?" After Fugaku Uchiha left, Touhuan Uchiha gently drew the long sword from his waist, the cold blade reflecting his face.
Sheathing his longsword, packing his gear, and picking up the mission scroll, Uchiha Touhuan waited for his teammates for this mission in front of the security headquarters gate.
Uchiha Inahisa and Uchiha Zaito were both outstanding members of the younger generation of the Uchiha clan. Although their strength was far inferior to that of Shisui and Touhuan, they became Chunin before the age of 20 and awakened the two-tomoe.
However, like most Uchiha, their limited brain capacity was completely consumed by the sense of honor of their clan. Therefore, the two of them had some reservations about Uchiha Touhuan, who always advocated smiling law enforcement. However, with the mission at hand, the two of them still gave Uchiha Touhuan a standard bow when they saw him.
Uchiha Touhuan nodded, then said, "Let's go."
Chapter 4 Danzo's Ambushes
Uchiha Tohkan's mission was to go to the northwestern border region to eliminate spies from the Land of Earth.
After leaving the village, the three sped up and headed towards the mission area.
However, before they even reached the mission location, figures wearing various masks surrounded them from all directions, quickly forming an encirclement around the three of them.
"Anbu?" Uchiha Inaho's expression hardened as she looked at the newcomer's attire.
“No, not the Anbu, it’s the Root.” Uchiha Touhuan remained calm as he drew his long sword from behind him. “However, let’s prepare for battle.”
"Damn it! What does the village mean by this? They actually attacked their own ninjas?" Uchiha Zaito said indignantly as he took out a kunai to fight back.
"Uchiha Touhuan, a traitor of the Uchiha clan, today I will eliminate this destabilizing factor for the village." Danzo's sinister voice rang out, but Uchiha Touhuan looked around and did not see Danzo's figure.
"A cowardly rat hiding its head and tail dares to spout nonsense here," Uchiha Touhuan said disdainfully.
"Uchiha Touhuan, put away your little tricks. You wanted to force me to show myself so you could use the eye techniques you stole from Uchiha Shisui on me, right? But unfortunately, Uchiha Shisui has already revealed everything. The village already knows about your plot to steal his eye techniques and rebel. Why don't you just surrender?"
"Douhuan, what does he mean?" Uchiha Inahisa asked, puzzled.
"Now is not the time to talk about these things." Electricity crackled around Uchiha Touhuan, and explosions rang out from time to time. "Let's deal with these bastards first."
"Understood!" Uchiha Inahashi and Uchiha Zaidou nodded, standing back-to-back with Uchiha Touhuan, forming a triangular formation, and each formed hand seals: "Fire Release: Great Fire Dragon Technique".
Two massive fire dragons charged towards the encircling Root army. The heatwave from the explosion immediately engulfed the Root ninjas at the forefront. Although Danzo had brought elites to kill Uchiha Touhuan, Inahikasa and Zaito were both top members of the Uchiha clan and geniuses who had awakened the two-tomoe chakra. Uchiha Touhuan's side was even more direct. Nine blue lightning balls containing terrifying chakra condensed in an instant and then crushed in different directions.
Lightning Release: Lightning Ball, the most basic of the Lightning Release ninjutsu, a technique that even some Konoha genin with Lightning Release can master, has now acquired such power in the hands of Uchiha Tohsen.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten Root ninjas were engulfed by the lightning ball, leaving no trace of their bodies. However, Root had long been brainwashed by Danzo and had lost all individual will. The death of their comrades did not stop them. Instead, they continued to charge towards the three without fear of death. At the same time, the Water Release and Wind Release ninjas among them began to release ninjutsu, intending to use ninjutsu that were effective against their elemental attributes to take down the three.
"You murdered an Anbu ninja, Uchiha Touhuan, are you planning to betray the village?" Danzo's voice rang out again.
His response was a barrage of lightning bolts, each as thick as a thigh, descending from the sky and striking precisely the area where the Root ninjas were gathered. The exploding lightning instantly claimed the lives of the Root ninjas once more. Meanwhile, the wind and water ninjutsu unleashed by the Root ninjas were completely neutralized by the six dark blue lightning balls that Uchiha Touhuan had conjured and that were rapidly spinning around the three of them.
"Aren't you going to show yourself yet, Lord Danzo?" Uchiha Touhuan said. "Or do you think you can keep me here with their help?"
"Uchiha Tohkan, don't waste your time. You think you can control me? That's wishful thinking," Danzo sneered.
"Lord Danzo, don't you think you're overestimating yourself?" Uchiha Touhuan effortlessly unleashed a series of ninjutsu, reaping the lives of Root ninjas, while chuckling as he said, "You're just a rat that can't see the light of day, spending your days hiding in the sewers, easily discarded by Hiruzen Sarutobi. You're not worthy of a divine technique like Kotoamatsukami."
Just then, several giant trees shot into the sky, forming a giant hand that enveloped the area where the three were located.
The previous attacks were merely to deplete the three's chakra, while the real killing move was Danzo's true trump card, which he had been hiding in the shadows.
"Wood Release?" Uchiha Inahashi was shocked. With the Uchiha clan's discerning eye, they could naturally recognize the origin of this ninjutsu.
The two instinctively used ninjutsu to try to stop the giant hand from falling from the sky, but their ninjutsu failed to leave any mark on the giant hand.
At that moment, Uchiha Touhuan slowly spoke: "Stand behind me."
In an instant, the three tomoe in Uchiha Touken's eyes spun rapidly, transforming into the Mangekyou Sharingan. Dark eye power surged from his eyes, enveloping the three of them before transforming into a giant black martial god covered in azure runes.
Uchiha Touhuan's eye power and explosive lightning chakra converged in the God of War's hand, transforming into a dark blue longsword, which sliced the giant wooden hand that fell from the sky in two with a single strike.
"Elder Danzo, haven't you made enough of a scene?" Uchiha Touhuan said coldly. "Do you know why I didn't use the ultimate power of our Uchiha clan from the beginning? It's because I intend to bury you all here."
As Uchiha Touhuan spoke, the sky above them darkened. The water vapor evaporated from the collision of Fire Release and Water Release had formed large patches of dark clouds in the air, and a massive amount of energy was constantly being compressed within them. When everyone present looked up, their faces were filled with horror. Although the Root ninjas had basically lost all humanity, this sense of powerlessness in the face of divine might was an instinct of every living being.
"Lightning Release: Kirin!" Uchiha Touhuan softly uttered the name of the technique. Then, except for the three people in the center of the battlefield, a spark of electricity flashed beneath the feet of everyone. These sparks were so faint that even ordinary people would only feel pain, but at this moment, they had become a death knell for everyone present.
A colossal blue beast formed from lightning descended from the sky, instantly engulfing the entire area in a blinding flash of light. Faced with this awe-inspiring thunder, the Root ninjas had nowhere to escape. Only a few layers of wooden shields rose up in one corner, desperately trying to block the descending lightning with sheer numbers.
Minutes later, the thunder subsided completely, a downpour began, and the stench of blood that had filled the air earlier vanished.
From the corner where the wooden ingot wall had risen earlier, the last layer of the wooden ingot wall collapsed with a crash, revealing two figures. A masked man fell to the ground with a thud, his hands still in a hand seal position, while the other man leaned on a cane with one hand and had his other hand, wrapped in bandages, hanging in front of him.
"Found you, Elder Danzo." Uchiha Touhuan, inside Susanoo, revealed a bright smile.
My new book is launching, and I hope everyone will support it and read it every day.
Chapter 5 The Death of Danzo
"It seems I have no choice but to take action." His men were wiped out, but the Dark One of the Ninja World remained calm. He threw down his cane and slowly unwrapped the bandages from his arm, revealing his horrifying right arm.
"Sharingan?" Uchiha Inahi and Uchiha Saito, protected by Susanoo, instantly flew into a rage. "How dare you defile the remains of our clan's ancestors!"
"Your Uchiha clan is an inherently evil clan. The Sharingan, such a power, can only be used to protect Konoha in my hands." Danzo said, raising his eyes to look at the black-clad warrior standing in the torrential rain. "Uchiha Tohsen, today, I will personally end your sins."
After saying that, Danzo suddenly charged towards Uchiha Touhuan, forming hand seals at the same time.
"Wind Release: Vacuum Ball!" Wind-attribute chakra condensed in Danzo's mouth and then shot towards Uchiha Tohsen's Susanoo like bullets. Danzo's figure weaved through these high-speed vacuum balls, wielding a kunai and thrusting it towards Uchiha Tohsen.
The Susanoo, positioned high above, destroyed the Vacuum Sphere used as cover with a single strike, and Danzo was directly cut in half at the waist by that one blow.
As Susanoo slowly dissipated, the three Uchiha Touhuan and his companions, who had been protected within it, were revealed.
"Is it over?" Uchiha Inahisa finally came to her senses and murmured.
"Yes, it's over." Uchiha Touhuan nodded, then walked up to Danzo's corpse, which bore the same pattern of death as the strongest in modern times.
However, the next second, Danzo's corpse disappeared before the three of them, and a whooshing sound rang out behind Uchiha Touhuan.
"Uchiha Touhuan, I'll take your eyes." Danzo's voice was filled with undisguised excitement. As long as he killed Uchiha Touhuan, the two pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan, including Shisui's Mangekyou, would definitely help him become Hokage.
However, just as the kunai was less than a millimeter from Uchiha Tohkan's back, Danzo suddenly found himself frozen in place, and at the same time, his body was slowly dissipating.
"What...what is this?" Danzo stared at the scene in disbelief. At this moment, his right arm and kunai had completely dissipated in the wind.
"Your reliance is Izanagi, isn't it?" At this moment, Uchiha Touhuan slowly turned around, the kaleidoscope pattern in his left eye spinning rapidly. "You can manipulate illusions and reality, but unfortunately, you're completely countered by this eye of mine."
"My eye technique, Mizusou no Miko, under the gaze of this eye, all illusions will cease to exist." As Uchiha Touhuan finished speaking, Danzo's figure completely disappeared into thin air, while the previously vanished corpse reappeared.
With only half of Danzo's body remaining, the Hashirama cells, no longer restrained by chakra, began to rampage. Uchiha Touhuan reached out and set up several sealing techniques to suppress the rampage of the Hashirama cells. Then, Uchiha Touhuan bent down and picked up the half of Danzo.
“Let’s go back to the village,” said Uchiha Touhuan.
"Go back to the village?" Uchiha Zaito was taken aback upon hearing this.
“Yes, we need to go back to the village and demand an explanation,” Uchiha Touhuan said, then looked at the Wood Release ninja who still had a few traces of life remaining not far away. “Take him with us.”
……
In his office in the Hokage Building, Hiruzen Sarutobi lit his pipe for the 27th time today. For some reason, he had been shrouded in a strong sense of unease since this morning.
"Lord Hokage, Uchiha Touhuan, who left the village this morning, has returned and clashed with the guards at the village gate." At that moment, an Anbu member rushed into the Hokage Building.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart sank. Uchiha Touhuan was back, which meant that Danzo had failed.
"Why did a conflict occur after we were just returning to the village after completing our mission?" Hiruzen Sarutobi asked hastily.
"In his hands..." The ANBU member who came to report swallowed hard, "He was carrying Lord Danzo's corpse, and on Lord Danzo's corpse were several Sharingan eyes."
"What?" Hiruzen Sarutobi was shocked. To be honest, he had greatly overestimated Uchiha Touhuan's strength and was prepared for Danzo's failed ambush, or even for Danzo to have been hit by Kotoamatsukami. But he never expected that Danzo would die directly at the hands of Uchiha Touhuan.
"Lord Hokage, the two advisors have received the news and are on their way to the village entrance." At this moment, the Anbu member continued, "Furthermore, the Uchiha clan has also received the news and is currently gathering."
Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi could no longer sit still and quickly got up and walked outside.
At dusk, the atmosphere at the entrance to Konoha Village was already tense, with swords poised to be drawn.
