The Ninja Clan's Attitude!

Chapter 91 The Ninja Clan's Attitude!

How many times has this happened already!

Sensing the enormous commotion coming from afar, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was leading a large group of men to the scene, had a face so dark it was almost dripping with gloom.

The once peaceful and prosperous Konoha Village under his leadership has undergone such a dramatic change in less than half a month.

After much difficulty, Jiraiya finally brought back his lazy disciple, but this man, who possessed both strength and prestige, still had no intention of inheriting the title of Hokage.

but.

After all, his side had gained a powerful ally with Kage-level strength, and with this as a stepping stone, they had once again gained the trust of many ninja clans. Therefore, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt that he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Hiruzen Sarutobi had some confidence in his disciple. He figured that if he could just play the victim and demonstrate his abilities, he could get Jiraiya to temporarily act as the acting Hokage.

When the time is ripe and the Uchiha clan is suppressed once again, the power of Konoha will eventually return to Hiruzen Sarutobi's hands.

As Asuma grows stronger, matures further, and his marriage alliance with the Akimichi clan deepens...

The power struggle in Konoha will then return to its proper course!

but……

Gazing at the colossal, blood-red Susanoo in the distance, resembling a god, and the chakra energy fluctuations that even made him, the 'Strongest Hokage,' tremble...

What an evil Uchiha clan!

"well……"

Koharu Utatane followed behind Hiruzen Sarutobi, and seemed to be in sync with both of them, speaking with a helpless tone.

"Is this still the Konoha we remember?!"

"rest assured!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart sank again upon hearing this, but as the leader, he had to remain calm and not let his loyal supporters back down at this crucial moment.

"If we can just hold out for this period, everything will return to normal!"

Although he had a premonition that a storm was about to break, Hiruzen Sarutobi had to ensure the stability of the current situation now that Jiraiya had successfully succeeded as the Fifth Hokage.

"stop!"

As Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others drew closer to the battlefield, they noticed that Jiraiya still looked somewhat listless. Having changed into a black ninja outfit, he immediately shouted loudly.

"teacher!"

A hint of joy flashed in Jiraiya's eyes. For ordinary ninjas, even with the blessing of Sage Mode, Susanoo was simply too overpowered.

If it weren't for the Uchiha clan members who were keeping watch nearby, Jiraiya's best course of action would have been to retreat as soon as possible.

Upon seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi's arrival, Jiraiya's desire to sow discord and create meaningless conflict naturally intensified.

"Who do you think you are?!"

A hint of disdain flashed in Uchiha Jin's eyes, and he did not stop as the other party had expected.

Instead, he brandished a forty-meter-long sword, bringing Jiraiya, along with Hiruzen Sarutobi and others from his own line of origin, into his attack range.

not good!

Jiraiya, who had felt slightly relieved, suddenly felt a jolt in his heart. As he quickly retreated, he once again gathered Sage Chakra in his right hand.

Seeing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi did not hesitate to act, summoning the Monkey King Enma, who possessed an indestructible body.

"Is that an Uchiha?"

Before Enma could inquire further about the battle, Hiruzen Sarutobi activated his chakra and forcibly transformed Enma into the form of the Vajra Staff.

"Hang in there, old buddy!"

The moment he grasped the Vajra Staff, Hiruzen Sarutobi leaped forward to meet Jiraiya beneath the crimson giant blade.

Despite teaming up with Jiraiya, facing Uchiha Jin's Susanoo, which overwhelmed everyone with its sheer power, this direct confrontation was still too disadvantageous.

Rumble!

As thick smoke burst forth, Hiruzen Sarutobi and Jiraiya emerged almost simultaneously, crashing to the ground under the irresistible force, tumbling over a dozen times before barely managing to stop themselves.

That is, at this very moment.

Hiruzen Sarutobi became even more determined not to fight King Uchiha head-on. The best way to deal with Susanoo, a chakra armor with high attack and defense, was to find an opportunity to break through its defenses.

If it were a contest of strength, even if several of the strongest Hokage were to join, it would only increase casualties in vain.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi's intervention ultimately bought him some time.

At this moment, everyone who arrived with Hiruzen Sarutobi, as well as the Konoha ninja clans who had received the message and rushed over, were all involved in the battle.

"Uchiha Jin!"

Seeing that Hiruzen Sarutobi had suffered a setback, Koharu Utatane immediately stepped forward and pointed at the huge, blood-red Susanoo in front of her.

"How could you use such dangerous ninjutsu in the village? Look what you've done to the village!"

"Yo!"

Uchiha Jin ignored Koharu Utatane and slowly swept his gaze over Mitokado Homura behind him, as well as the various Konoha ninja clans that were silently walking towards him.

"Stop!"

As Uchiha Jin's cold gaze swept over him, Nara Shikaku, who had been hiding among the Ino-Shika-Cho group, shook his head helplessly and then resolutely stepped out from the crowd.

"Does this mean you? Or does it mean 'pig, deer, and butterfly'?"

Uchiha Jin remained noncommittal, merely coldly observing the group of Ino-Shika-Cho ninjas who had arrived, including Nara Shikaku.

Individually, none of the Ino-Shika-Cho clans are particularly powerful, but when these three clans unite, they form the strongest coalition force recognized by Konoha.

Even if they were to go head-to-head with the Uchiha clan, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio would definitely not be at a disadvantage.

Ah!

It refers to the Uchiha clan members without the Mangekyou Sharingan!

"ember!"

Nara Shikaku's eyes were full of caution as he looked at Uchiha Jin, who had an imposing aura and seemed ready to fight at any moment. He quickly raised his hands to indicate that he had no hostility.

"You should also know that there are bound to be spies from opposing forces within the village. If the Uchiha clans really start fighting, then regardless of who wins or loses in the end, we will have to face an attack from the other four great ninja villages!"

Yes!

After a heated discussion, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, even though they still had some support for Hiruzen Sarutobi, were not so reckless as to rush in as pawns.

However, there is one point that concerns the interests of the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, and even the interests of all the ninja clans in Konoha at this moment.

That means absolutely not allowing the village to experience a large-scale internal conflict, which would give the opposing ninja village forces an opportunity to take advantage of the situation and thus trigger an even more devastating Fourth Shinobi World War.

If the Uchiha clan plays by the rules, even if they go a bit too far, the other ninja clans can choose to turn a blind eye.

Whoever instigated this internal strife, plunging the entire Hidden Leaf Village into a new round of war, is someone that all the ninja clans of the Hidden Leaf Village must unite to eliminate.

Nara Shikaku's eyes were extremely serious, and his tone was equally firm.

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Jin smiled with satisfaction, knowing that his actions over the past few days had finally brought some blind men to their senses.

"As the founding clan of Konoha, the Uchiha are our mortal enemies; anyone who tries to disrupt Konoha is our mortal enemy!"

Uchiha Jin's words were equally serious, but his murderous gaze was once again fixed on Hiruzen Sarutobi and Jiraiya, who were supporting each other.

"The police are arresting the lecher Jiraiya, Hiruzen Sarutobi, are you trying to stop them?!"
