Chapter 348: It is easy to share adversity, but difficult to share prosperity

In order to prevent Danzo Shimura from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble, the Third Hokage decided to deprive him of his right to make suggestions, and he only needed to be an apparent commander.

Don't worry about the rest.

Can't control it either.

Having grown up together until today, the Third Hokage knows all too well his rival's ability to stir up trouble.

If you give him just the slightest chance, he can get you into big trouble.

Now thinking back on what happened to Kushina and Shizuka, the Third Hokage felt a tightness in his heart.

Damn Danzo, can’t you let me be more careful?

Everyone likes a black glove who is capable, can take the blame, and is not afraid of being criticized.

But things changed after this black glove started messing around.

The current situation of the Third Hokage is quite embarrassing. He has tolerated Danzo Shimura again and again, and he can't throw him away, nor does he dare to use him casually.

As for the treatment of Danzo Shimura, it was even more outrageous.

The Third Hokage had this thought before, but he cut it off as soon as it came to mind.

It is not difficult to deal with Danzo Shimura, but the difficult part is how others will view him after you deal with Danzo Shimura.

Utane Koharu, Mitokado En and others will definitely come up with other ideas.

We can share hardships together, but not prosperity?

Have you forgotten how much help Danzo Shimura has given you, how many contributions he has made, and how many blames he has taken for you?

You even dealt with him, what about us?

Next time we make a mistake, will you kill us with a knife?

"I hope there won't be any conflicts."

At this point, the Third Hokage could only hope that Danzo Shimura would be more stable, think carefully about himself, and not get sick again.

Ansheng is hiding.

This is good for everyone.

Danzo Shimura was the one who took the blame on the surface, but the ones who did it were the Hokage Guards of the Third Hokage.

The Anbu would definitely not get involved in such matters. Even if the Third Hokage wanted to borrow someone, Shizueichi would not allow it.

The Anbu do evil things, and their evil intentions are directed at outsiders, not their own people, so you should seek help from others.

Therefore, the only people the Third Hokage could mobilize were the Hokage Guard and several family ninjas behind the F4 group.

Uchiha Fugaku wanted to use the Third Hokage to deal with several elders of the family, so he certainly couldn't let the family's ninjas participate, not even the clan leader's guards.

Therefore, the Third Hokage can only suffer, and then the ninjas of the Sarutobi and Shimura families can only suffer.

The cleanup plan was simple and not complicated, but Uchiha Fugaku just couldn't make up his mind.

The attitude of the Hokage's office had been bothering him.

Now that the Hokage's Office is here to help, all the concerns are bullshit.

On the third night after the plan was finalized, the elders of the Uchiha clan received a notice from the clan leader.

The family wants to hold a high-level meeting, but because the content is too radical, it cannot be held in the ancestral hall to prevent the village leaders from noticing.

The Uchiha elders did not think much about this reminder. Although their ideas were not in line with those of the young clan leader Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Fugaku had always been more restrained and steady since becoming the clan leader.

No one would think that Uchiha Fugaku would attack them, unless Uchiha Fugaku was crazy.

In an underground base on the edge of the Uchiha clan's territory.

The base here was built by Uchiha Fugaku's father, the previous head of the Uchiha clan. When Uchiha Madara rebelled against the village, there was a lot of commotion.

The relationship between the village and the Uchiha clan once reached a freezing point. In order to prevent the village from really attacking the Uchiha clan one day, many similar bases were built in the Uchiha clan's land.

It is usually hidden and not used, but can come in handy at critical moments.

As time went on, the Uchiha people realized that the village had no intention of attacking the Uchiha people, and these underground bases lost their due function.

Today's Uchiha high-level meeting will be held in this base.

As for why it is not in the family ancestral hall but in the combat base, hasn’t the reason been given?

Worried about being noticed by the village leaders.

This makes sense, right?

At least a few radical elders thought it was reasonable and that Uchiha Fugaku's arrangement was not wrong.

The time was almost up, and several elders came to the base with their guards.

Little did they know that from the moment they entered the base, they had stepped into a trap set by Uchiha Fugaku and the Third Hokage.

The huge base seemed a bit empty. Apart from a few elders, there were only a dozen guards.

As the clan leader, Uchiha Fugaku was always the last to arrive at every meeting, so the elders did not suspect anything.

"The clan leader asked us to hold a high-level meeting. Could it be that he promised some benefits to the Hokage's office again?"

"Alas~~~ I once thought Fugaku was a good boy, a good boy who could lead Uchiha to glory. Who could have thought... that he was actually a spineless person."

"It would be better to use the family's money to buy the Hokage's office."

"When will this hell of a life of constant targeting end? It was a mistake for us Uchiha to join Konoha!! Uchiha Madara was even more wrong!!"

"I think the next Hokage should be someone from our Uchiha clan. It should be the Uchiha clan's turn anyway."

Inside the base, all kinds of outrageous words were spoken, and the Uchiha elders were extremely courageous.

This is also why Uchiha Fugaku can't wait to get rid of them.

If these people are not cleared out, there will always be a huge disaster within the Uchiha clan. Once these family elders start to make trouble, many clan members will follow them.

By then, even the clan leader Uchiha Fugaku won’t be able to handle it.

There was a heated discussion inside the base, while outside the base, groups of ninjas surrounded the base under the cover of night.

Shimura Danzo took the lead.

The Third Hokage, Utane Koharu, and Mitokado En watched from afar.

As for Uchiha Fugaku, he didn't come.

He waited for news at home.

It's almost time.

The Third Hokage nodded to Danzo Shimura, indicating that he could take action.

Inside the base, some elders expressed their dissatisfaction.

"Why hasn't the clan leader arrived yet? Although he is the clan leader, he is our junior. Doesn't he know that he should respect his elders?"

"When the clan leader arrives, we should have a good talk with him and educate him."

"who!!!"

A cry of surprise startled several elders.

Afterwards, the impact of the battle spread to the base.
