: Hiruzen Sarutobi finally makes his appearance!

Chapter 35: Hiruzen Sarutobi finally makes his appearance!

In fact.

As early as when the Uchiha began to crush the Root ninjas who blocked their way, Uchiha Jin sensed more than one sensory chakra probing in this direction. It seemed that various forces in the village were also heading towards this place.

However, this place is the closest to the Root base, and Danzo was too confident, which is why he thought of coming up here to die by himself.

Although the confrontation with Danzo didn't last too long, according to Uchiha Jin's calculations, it was enough time for the actors to get to their scenes.

It's just that Shisui's mind was full of distractions, otherwise he wouldn't have failed to notice the various ninjas surrounding him in the distance, nor the agile figure that was about to appear.

boom!

Accompanied by a tremendous crash, a dark figure plummeted from the sky, its furious words echoing throughout the entire arena.

"Stop! What are you all doing?"

Upon hearing the voice, Uchiha Shisui's face first lit up with joy, but then he suddenly became extremely hesitant. If he were to perform the face-changing act, he would obviously have a chance to receive enthusiastic applause.

Meanwhile, the Uchiha who had been suppressing the Root ninjas withdrew their eye power and, led by Yuuhara and Tonan, slowly returned to Uchiha Jin's back.

As for the Root ninjas who were finally able to relax, they hesitated for a moment, glancing at their pitiful leader on the ground and then at the agile figure that had just appeared not far away. Under the command of several Root group leaders, they chose to remain silent.

Obviously!

The newcomer was none other than Hiruzen Sarutobi, the village chief of Konoha and known as the "strongest Hokage in history"!

Sarutobi, the "strongest Hokage," had an extremely gloomy expression. His cold gaze swept over the broken corpses on the ground, and even with his years of composure as a strong figure in the rear, he couldn't help but twitch his brow.

"What exactly happened? And whose body is that on the ground?"

Fortunately, Hiruzen Sarutobi was able to remain calm, and his gaze slowly focused on King Uchiha.

Ah!

It was at this moment that Hiruzen Sarutobi was surprised to find that the figure beneath his opponent's feet had a vaguely familiar feel to it.

Could it be that I'm mistaken? Is it true that as you get older, your memory just gets worse...?

"Cough cough... Sarutobi, save me!"

As strands of dirt gushed from his mouth, Danzo, who had been lying dead, finally struggled and cried out for help.

Grass (a type of plant)

It really is Danzo!

Even after discovering the tragic state of his beloved companion, the Hokage, a veteran of war, remained calm and composed.

Ah!

With the kunai that Uchiha Jin kept pointing at Danzo's head, plus the many red-eyed youths behind him who looked like wolves, this was not something that he, the "strongest Hokage," could handle alone.

Therefore, at this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi simply looked calmly at King Uchiha and scrutinized Shisui Uchiha, whose face was flushed with embarrassment, with a questioning gaze.

brush!brush!

Just a moment later, two more figures appeared behind Hiruzen Sarutobi in an instant; they were Homura Mitokado and Koharu Utatane, both members of Konoha's F4.

But just like Hiruzen Sarutobi who had just arrived, after examining the tense scene, the two stood silently in place, staring at what lay ahead, completely ignoring Danzo Shimura, who was being buried in the pit again.

What happened before is not important; it's just that Danzo "took matters into his own hands" and "arbitrarily" mobilized Root ninjas to do dirty work.

None of that matters anymore!

But the truly important point is... Danzo lost!

Now that Danzo has lost, it's time to try a different approach!

Swish! Swish! Swish...

With the arrival of Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, it was as if some kind of signal had been activated, and countless chakra fluctuations appeared, with one after another phantom solidifying behind Sarutobi Hiruzen.

But obviously...

Each solid figure, after their pupils contracted slightly, chose to stand silently behind Hiruzen Sarutobi, quietly observing the development of the situation.

And so, a world where only Danzo is ignored is born once again...

at last!

As the number of figures arriving in an instant gradually stopped increasing, Hiruzen Sarutobi finally spoke calmly once again.

"Release Danzo, and then explain what happened here? Whose body is this on the ground?"

Just like the questions Sarutobi Hiruzen had before his arrival, his tone held no hint of accusation, but rather he seemed like a just judge promising to give justice to the aggrieved party.

Before Uchiha Jin could speak, Shisui stepped forward first. He bowed respectfully to Sarutobi Hiruzen before slowly speaking.

"Let me explain this, Hokage-sama. It's like this…..."

Bang!

With another clean and swift kick, the unsuspecting Shisui was sent flying once again, while Danzo, who had just managed to catch his breath, was buried in the dust once more.

Mmm...mmm...

"Uchiha Jin, do you know what you're doing?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression suddenly turned cold, but a hint of smugness crept into his eyes as he looked at Shisui, who had been kicked away.

"certainly!"

Uchiha Jin shrugged indifferently, then nodded to Yuuhara beside him.

"yes!"

Yu Yuan first bowed to Uchiha Jin, and then turned to Hiruzen Sarutobi and spoke calmly.

"The police department discovered that spies posing as ANBU had infiltrated the village and intended to commit acts against Elder Uchiha. After warning them to surrender failed, they were all killed!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's brow twitched slightly, but he didn't pay attention to the other party's words. Instead, he stared intently at the many red-eyed youths, including Uchiha Habara.

The Uchiha clan's foundation... has been strengthened once again!

What Hiruzen Sarutobi was even more concerned about was that the Uchiha clan, after becoming stronger, seemed to be drifting further and further away from the Will of Fire...

Hiruzen Sarutobi exchanged a glance with Homura Mitokado and Koharu Utatane without making a sound, and after they understood each other, he finally looked at Danzo again.

"Uchiha Jin, why did you attack Danzo? Do you even know what a crime it is to harm a Hokage's assistant?!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi ignored Habara and stared intently at King Uchiha, exuding an aura of authority that commanded respect without anger.

"certainly!"

Uchiha Jin responded calmly, then looked at Yu Yuan again.

"Harming a Hokage's assistant is considered treason and will be punished without exception!"

Yuhara couldn't help but chuckle. After giving Shimura Danzo on the ground a strange look, he once again had the two Uchiha behind him lift up the huge dark green scroll from before.

"Our police department is responsible for maintaining order and stability within Konoha Village, enacting village laws, arresting individuals and ninjas with criminal tendencies (excluding the Hokage's direct ANBU), and even organizing ninjas to participate in the village's policing work..."

brush!

As Yu Yuan continued speaking, Tu Nan readily summoned the note signed by the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju.

At this moment, Uchiha Jin finally looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi again and spoke with a slightly mocking tone.

"The Third Hokage?"

"I don't know what crime a commoner ninja has committed by violating the Hokage's ban, and even colluding with spies to plot against me, an elder of the ninja clan!"

hiss……

As Uchiha Jin spoke, the high-ranking members of the ninja clans behind Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but gasp in shock.

Nowadays!

This is going to be a big disaster!
