Danzo: Don't worry, my men have taken care of the mess.

(Sorry, I forgot to schedule the update, so it's a little late today.)

……

in the forest.

The Third Hokage's expression was solemn, and his steps were heavy.

He has come up with a solution, but the price he has to pay for it is something he is very reluctant to do.

If it weren't for Danzo...

Thinking of this, the Third Hokage turned and glared at Danzo.

If it weren't for this guy, who was secretly doing too many illegal things, he wouldn't have ended up like this.

That's good now.

With the Root base destroyed, the Uchiha must have obtained all the evidence, right?

"..."

Danzo felt a little guilty under the Third Hokage's glare, but he didn't look away.

He had already given instructions to immediately destroy the intelligence at the Root base should anything go wrong.

The Uchiha clan members don't get much.

and.

He either keeps the truly important things close to his body or destroys them after reading them, like this project he's working on with Orochimaru.

Danzo subtly touched his right hand, a smirk flashing in his eyes.

The power of Wood Release resides in this arm!

……

Not long after.

The group arrived at the location of the root base.

The first thing they saw was a pitch-black giant as tall as a small mountain.

The giant was clad in armor, wielding a long sword, with an ancient and unsophisticated face. Wisps of golden light flowed through the gaps in his armor, outlining the giant's solid and sturdy body.

Although it only has an upper body, its imposing presence is like a towering mountain and a deep abyss, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

"Is this Susanoo?"

Many Konoha ninjas couldn't help but swallow hard.

They seemed to see an ancient and sacred deity, transcending time and space, standing before them.

"..."

The Third Hokage and several elders were also feeling uneasy.

Her aura is too strong.

It felt like stepping back many years to my childhood, capturing a glimpse of Madara Uchiha's brilliance deep in my memory.

Although he is not yet comparable to Madara Uchiha, he already shows some resemblance to him.

"Danzo..."

The Third Hokage turned his head and asked Danzo in a low voice, "There's nothing in here, is there?"

If the Uchiha discovers something terrible...

The situation spiraled out of control.

If the situation gets out of control, they will have to face the terrifying Susanoo.

"Yes, Danzo, it's good that you told us in advance so we could be prepared," Koharu Utatane added.

Mitokado was even more direct: "Did you clean up those messes you made?"

Danzo felt a little guilty upon hearing this.

Although he had been instructed to destroy evidence immediately upon encountering any situation.

But whether it was 100% destroyed, nobody knows.

Despite feeling guilty.

Danzo, however, still harbored a glimmer of hope and replied softly, "Don't worry, it's already been taken care of."

"Is it really resolved?" The Third Hokage asked, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Of course it's true."

Danzo feigned displeasure, frowning as he said, "Hiruzen, do you think I could make a mistake on something so small?"

The Third Hokage thought about it and agreed, so he didn't ask any further questions.

Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado also felt that Danzo wouldn't make a mistake in handling such a small matter as his hands and feet.

The three continued to look ahead.

……

The towering Susanoo is in the middle.

Junichi's gaze swept over the crowd, and familiar faces came into his view.

The Third Hokage, Danzo, Koharu Utatane, Homura Mitokado...

Hiashi Hyuga, Ino-Shika-Cho trio, Shiki Aburame, Tsuru Inuzuka...

They are all characters who appeared in the original work.

In this context.

What attracted his attention most was a young man wearing a green bodysuit, sporting a funny watermelon-shaped haircut, and with a determined look in his eyes.

"Matt Kai..."

As Junichi uttered the young man's name, his eyes narrowed slightly.

His Observation Haki allowed him to sense a dangerous aura emanating from Might Guy.

"Have you mastered all eight gates?"

Junichi seemed to be deep in thought, thinking to himself, "Moreover, the power within my body is like a dormant volcano, always ready to erupt."

"If I make any move, he'll probably explode in unison."

"How cautious, Third Hokage."

He was being watched by Zhunyi.

As if sensing something, Matt Kai's eyes instantly turned to him.

but.

Might Guy was very alert. He didn't look into Junichi's eyes, but instead looked at Junichi's shoulder, carefully avoiding eye contact with the Sharingan.

"pity."

Junichi chuckled inwardly, but felt little regret.

He had already prepared another plan, and perhaps this new plan would be even more popular.

Thinking like that.

With a thought, he canceled the output of his pupil power.

The enormous Susanoo gradually dissipated, fading away like smoke.

call……

Seeing this, many people breathed a sigh of relief.

Facing Susanoo head-on is incredibly stressful.

If such a giant were to suddenly strike down with his sword, at least a quarter of them would die.

Nobody knows.

At the same time, on the Uchiha clan's territory.

……

Led by Xiongji, the Uchiha clan members gazed in the direction of the Root base.

Susanoo disappeared upon seeing it.

Xiongji's eyes lit up, and he shouted, "The chieftain's signal has arrived!"

"oh!!"

The tribesmen shouted in unison and raised their arms.

The pair of scarlet, eerie Sharingan eyes made the surrounding air seem shrouded in a layer of blood mist.

Zhunyi only selected seven members of the Three-Tomoe Clan.

Those who remained in the clan's territory included more than thirty three-tomoe clansmen, as well as several hundred two-tomoe and one-tomoe clansmen!

This is the number of casualties after just one battle.

Otherwise, there would be even more clansmen who have opened their eyes!

"All personnel, listen to my command..." Xiongji, his face flushed, waved his hand excitedly, "Let's go!!"

"yes!!"

The expressions of the tribesmen turned solemn, and cold smiles curled at the corners of their mouths.

They formed a four-person team and swarmed out of their tribe's territory.

At this moment.

Everyone's attention was drawn to Zhunyi.

On this side of the tribal land, a temporary psychological blind spot is formed.

therefore.

Only one ANBU and one Root squad remained here.

"Uchiha... what do you want?"

The two teams felt their hair stand on end the moment they saw the Uchiha swarming out.

bass! !

Their response was the sound of swords being drawn.

One by one, the Uchiha clan members grinned maliciously as they pounced on the two teams.

"stop!"

"Are you planning a rebellion?"

"The Third Generation Lord is negotiating with your clan leader!"

The two teams screamed, trying to stop the Uchiha's attack.

But it didn't work.

They were quickly killed on the spot by the large number of Uchiha.

"Negotiation? You think you're qualified?"

Elder Xiongji looked disdainful, turned his head to look in the direction of the Sarutobi clan's territory in the village, and sneered, "It's only right to return the favor; it's our turn to go and greet the Sarutobi clan!"

Upon hearing this, the Uchiha clan members all revealed sinister smiles.

With their scarlet eyes, they really looked like a group of evil spirits.

"We've been waiting for this for ages, Elder Xiongji!!"

……

……

root base.

As Susanoo disappeared.

A tall, strong young man with a straight posture, smooth muscle lines, and a solid build appeared before them.

"Is that Junichi Uchiha?"

Everyone was greatly surprised.

They hadn't even noticed that there was such a person as the Uchiha.

Logically speaking...

They should have remembered someone with such an outstanding figure, but now they felt like they were seeing a complete stranger for the first time.

"My body shape has changed..."

The Third Hokage listened intently to the report from one of the Anbu guards, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.
