Chapter 152 Giving in

Muye Village

Hokage's office.

The Third Hokage knocked on the table.

"There are already a lot of rumors in the village now, and it doesn't make any sense for us to delay."

Several people are aware of the recent rumors in the village.

This is to explain that on the night of the Nine-Tails Rebellion, the Uchiha clan was asked by Konoha's top brass to protect non-combatants.

It's two different things than not participating in the battle.

If there were such rumors before, no one would believe them.

After all, you, Uchiha, are in the security force and you offend people every day. How can anyone help you?

The current Uchiha is very different. Now in Konoha Village, it is rare to even see members of the Uchiha clan staying.

The current Uchiha clan is not a security force, and it does not rely on you to complete tasks in Konoha. Others are running their own catering business in a flourishing manner.

Now that such rumors have come out, many people automatically wonder, is it because Uchiha suffered these grievances that he parted ways with the Leaf Village?

"Hinata is really a loser!" Danzo said angrily. After what happened last time, Hinata should have turned against Uchiha and completely turned to the Leaf Village.

However, after the Hyuga clan took the position of honorary elder, there was no direct conflict with Uchiha.

Now he is obviously helping Uchiha again, which makes Danzo very dissatisfied.

The rumors spread so quickly, and under the ANBU's investigation, several people knew that it all came from the Hyuga clan.

It's a pity that there is really nothing they can do against the Hyuga clan. Konoha is already difficult enough under the current circumstances. He didn't dare to attack Hinata at all.

They can only turn a blind eye to this kind of thing.

Of course, compared to these things about the Hyuga clan.

What they were more worried about was that Uchiha would cause trouble by taking over as clan leader.

"Hiruzhan, I suspect that Uchiha will have a coup this time!" Danzo suddenly spit out these words.

After hearing this this time, the Third Hokage did not reprimand Danzo like before. Because he also has this worry.

Xiaochun turned to bed and said, "Why don't you give out the arrangements for that year?"

Mito Menyan nodded: "Try to see if this can calm Natsuki's mood."

Sandai took a puff of cigarette and couldn't think of any good solution for a while.

Now it seems that this is the only way.

The three of them all looked at Danzo. After all, Danzo was the one who strongly opposed the intervention of the Uchiha clan. Later, the direction of public opinion was also controlled by Danzo. Now something happened.

It seems that only Danzo can take the blame.

Danzo saw the three of them staring at him with very angry expressions: "Hiruzhan, do you think this will make everything okay?"

"The Uchiha clan is extremely ambitious. Even if they admit what happened back then, they will still rebel!"

The third generation had endless thoughts. If the current Uchiha set off a coup, how many people in the ANBU would be able to take over, and how many people would there be in the Roots?

Danzo has always hidden his roots. This time, if Danzo's roots stand still and the Uchiha rebel, Konoha will most likely be seriously injured.

According to Danzo's personality, it is very likely that he will stand still and wait until both Konoha and Uchiha have suffered losses before coming out to reap the benefits.

Barring an overwhelming victory, Danzo is also a big problem.

Now it seems that all the major ninja clans can do is mobilize. If Uchiha launches a coup by then, how many people will contribute?

The key one, the Mangekyō Sharingan, cannot be handled well at all.

If you are not careful, big trouble will happen.

Several people were silent for a while.

"Knock knock knock..." A knock on the door interrupted the Third Hokage's thoughts.

There should be something important to report at this time.

Sandai said: "Come in."

An ANBU came in and reported: "Sandaime-sama, Jiraiya-sama is back."

Sandai was shocked: "Jiraiya is back? Where is he?"

If it were Jiraiya, he should be able to hold it down.

When Jiraiya was young, his abilities were not very good and he was the stupidest among his three apprentices.

But since he was inadvertently summoned to Mount Miaomu, Jiraiya has found his own path.

His strength is increasing day by day. If he wasn't too lazy, this strength would be more than enough to become Hokage.

The Anbu's scalp felt numb under the Third Generation's burning gaze: "Jiraiya-sama is not far from Konoha. He will arrive in about ten minutes."

Sandai said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, let him come to see me when he enters the village later."

"Yes!"

The ANBU quickly backed out.

As soon as the door closed, there were only four people left in the room.

The third generation seemed to have some confidence because of Jiraiya's return: "With Jiraiya, Uchiha shouldn't be too anxious to jump over the wall."

When Danzo saw Sarutobi Hiruzen like this, he knew that he was about to back down again.

"Hiruzhan! Uchiha is different now. Do you expect Jiraiya to always be in the village?"

Sandai paced back and forth: "At least get over the current difficulty first."

Danzo's heart sank. Uchiha was now powerful, and the last three generations had become very alienated from him. Maybe this was the last chance.

Danzo said a little annoyed: "What if Itachi and Shisui don't leave?"

"I'll let Jiraiya come forward."

The third generation had other thoughts running through his mind.

Huh, if the village and Uchiha fight, can they count on you to help?

Jiraiya was still a little less alone.

Danzo snorted coldly when he saw that Sandai had made up his mind.

Just look for another chance.

"However, we can still arrange for Natsuki's previous request. After all, the Uchiha are still part of our Konoha."

The third Hokage's next words made Danzo furious.

"Sarutobi Hiruzen! Are you going to push me out!?"

Danzo finally climbed back to being an honorary elder.

Unexpectedly, the Third Hokage, who was close to him in the past, gradually became wary of him and now wanted to push him out as a scapegoat.

Danzo has discovered that the Third Hokage is now trying to suppress him.

Now he is brought out to take the blame, but the situation is stronger than the person, and Danzo dares to be angry but dare not speak out.

The Third Hokage said: "Weren't you the one who proposed the arrangement back then?"

"You...you guys!" This matter was proposed by Danzo, but the matter was unanimously agreed upon by the four of them at the time.

"I don't agree!" Danzo's eyes were full of anger!

The Third Hokage was also annoyed at this time: "How long has it been, do you still care about this reputation!?"

"You'll regret this, Hiruzen!"

"That's enough! I am the Hokage!" The third Hokage slapped the table.

"What's going on? The old man is so angry." This is a person who came in through the window.

It was Jiraiya.

Danzo glanced at Jiraiya.

It's all you. It's not good to come back any time. Come back now.

He snorted heavily and walked away with an angry face.

"What happened?" Jiraiya scratched his head. Did Danzo take gunpowder?

When they went to bed, Koharu and Mito Menyan saw that nothing happened to them, so they followed them out.

The third generation was a little angry at first, but when he saw Jiraiya, he felt much better.

Jiraiya's usual carefree appearance is unreliable.

But it is really reliable at critical moments.

A smile appeared on the third generation Hokage's face: "You came back in time. If you don't come back this time, Konoha will be in danger."

Jiraiya's face also became serious: "Is it possible that Uchiha Natsuki will succeed the clan leader?"

Although he didn't collect much information along the way, Uchiha's actions were so great that even many civilians knew about them.

Jiraiya obviously knew it too.

The Third Hokage nodded: "You don't know something, Otoyin Village..."

The third generation showed several official letters to Jiraiya, and several people from the other ninja villages came, so there was no problem with this.

But only in Otogakure Village, Otokage will come and bring back more than a hundred Uchiha people.

There is Shisui inside, plus Itachi who secretly returned to the village before, and now Natsuki, Fugaku of the clan, there are already four Mangekyō Sharingan.

Even if Jiraiya had a fight with Natsuki back then, who could know what Natsuki's mentality is now.
