A figure emerged from the dense forest.

The newcomer was dressed in the Uchiha uniform, arms crossed, with deep, bright, dark eyes.

Uchiha Fugaku!

Utatane Itamine stared at Fugaku with a sinister gaze and said in a cold voice, "Captain Fugaku, why are you here?"

Fugaku is the captain of the Konoha Police Department.

Leaving a village requires approval from the Hokage.

However, their headquarters has not received any information recently that Fugaku is leaving the village.

In other words.

It was Fugaku who left the village without permission!

Moreover, Fugaku's appearance before everyone forced the Root ninjas to be on their guard.

Fugaku's eyes were cold and sharp as lightning as he spoke each word clearly.

"We've come to hunt down the Roots!"

"Hahaha!" Banfeng from the dormitory burst into laughter.

He was in his youthful arrogance and was very confident in his abilities, believing that even if he was no match for Fugaku, he could escape unscathed.

Then, Banfeng ordered, "Kill him!"

The Root and the Uchiha clans were sworn enemies.

The recent attack by Root on the Uchiha clan has further strained relations between the two sides to an all-time low.

Utatane Itamine also wanted to get rid of Fugaku and ask Danzo for credit!

A Root ninja advised, "Class representative, Fugaku Uchiha is the head of the clan. Why don't we take this time and devise a more detailed plan?"

The fearsome reputation of "Fierce Eyes" still instilled fear in other Root ninjas.

"You don't trust my judgment!?" Utatane Itamine angrily rebuked him, then slapped the Root ninja who had just spoken across the face, leaving the latter furious but unable to utter a word.

The others dared not utter a word.

Zhuanqin Banfeng was short-tempered, capricious, and ambitious, and his subordinates were all afraid of him.

"Kill Uchiha Fugaku!"

"kill!"

At a command.

All the Root members rushed towards Fugaku.

Just now.

Fugaku's Sharingan changed from three tomoe to an inverted spiral shape.

Kaleidoscope Sharingan!

He slowly addressed all the members of the Root.

"shackles!"

The Root ninjas remained motionless, as if they had turned into wooden figures.

Fugaku's left eye's Mangekyou Sharingan power can freeze everything within a certain range, except for him, for three seconds.

Name it "Shackles"!

"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"

A raging fire dragon spewed from Fugaku's mouth, and several Root ninjas screamed in agony as they perished in the flames.

"Dare to touch our Uchiha clan, whether you're from Root or Anbu, the outcome will be the same!"

We have lost a Jonin.

Three elite Chunin.

That would be enough to make Danzo's heart ache to the point of spasms!

Chapter 23 The Heartbreaking Story of Koharu (Please add to your favorites and read on)

Hiruzen Sarutobi wanted to do everything he could to prevent Root from attacking Genba and Itachi.

But nothing stays hidden forever.

This extremely heinous matter was eventually leaked.

A Jonin and a Chunin from Root actually attacked two six-year-old Uchiha children.

If Fugaku hadn't arrived in time...

Perhaps the two of them have already passed away.

That's absolutely outrageous!

Over time.

The matter gradually escalated.

Many villagers even stood in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi's office to complain about Root.

This put Hiruzen Sarutobi in a very passive position.

After this incident...

Whether it's a large family or not.

Or perhaps they are just ordinary villagers.

They were all afraid that the roots would attack them.

Or perhaps they kidnapped their own child.

Recently, almost all parents have been forbidding their younger family members from going out after dark for fear of danger.

Therefore, the nights in Konoha are very quiet.

Public opinion began to ferment and intensify.

Meanwhile, the reputation of the Roots in Konoha began to decline.

Danzo, the leader of Root, also began to make amends.

For example, they could leverage the influence of the Root and Shimura families to secretly control public opinion in the village and gradually downplay the matter.

Becoming Hokage was Danzo's dream.

Although Danzo was old, his determination to become Hokage never changed.

Danzo didn't want this incident to negatively impact his reputation in the village.

Under the influence of multiple forces.

In addition, most people are rather forgetful.

Over time.

People gradually forgot about it.

But Itachi did not forget.

Instead, they held a grudge.

After all, that incident did cause Itachi profound harm, and his worldview was almost completely reshaped.

It was clearly the root that attacked the two.

Ultimately, due to insufficient evidence, no punitive measures were taken against Danzo and Root.

This also made Itachi clearly realize.

Leafy leaves are unreliable.

The only reliable thing is one's own strength.

The so-called Will of Fire is nothing but empty talk and utter nonsense.

Genba's life continued as usual.

Besides using chakra to exchange for energy points to upgrade bloodline limits every day.

It means attending classes and studying diligently.

Or they go to the library whenever they have nothing to do.

His strength and knowledge base.

They are all constantly improving.

...

late at night.

root.

Xiaochun rushed to a secret room in a hurry.

She received intelligence from the Root.

His beloved junior died tragically in the Land of Grass.

So I rushed over as soon as I received the message.

Inside a sealed room.

There was Danzo, Orochimaru, and several Root ninjas.

On the stone platform deep inside.

Four corpses were laid out.

They were all wrapped in white cloth.

When Xiaochun stepped into the secret room and saw the corpse wrapped in a white cloth, she almost lost her balance and stumbled, nearly falling over.

The sternness and harshness of the past were gone from his aged face.

Instead, fear replaced it.

The guidance of the Root ninjas.

Xiaochun, who had just turned her bedside, came to a corpse.

She mustered her courage and lifted the white cloth.

Inside was a charred corpse.

Miserable.

Despite the change of dormitories, Xiaochun was able to identify the body through some distinctive features.

Besides, Danzo had no reason to deceive her.

"My little Banfeng!" Xiaochun, who was turning over in the dormitory, let out a heart-wrenching cry that echoed throughout the secret room.

She then rushed up to Danzo, shook his shoulders violently, and angrily questioned him.

"Danzo, didn't you say you would protect Itamine's safety? How come he's dead!?"

"Danzo, you haven't kept your promise! You're a liar who doesn't keep his word!"

Xiaochun, who switched rooms, did not have any children.

Therefore, she regarded the outstanding younger generation in the clan, Zhuanqin Banfeng, as her own son.

And now, her favorite junior has been burned to death. How could she not be heartbroken?

"Koharu, I'm so sorry." A hint of guilt appeared on Danzo's gloomy face.

Tsunematsu Banfeng was a student of Danzo.

He died unexpectedly.

He was also deeply heartbroken and felt extremely guilty.
