Shisui looked at Genye with gratitude in her eyes and said, "Genye, thank you for saving us!"
If it weren't for Genba, Shisui and Itachi might already be in danger. He was extremely grateful to Genba.
Moreover, Shisui felt foolish and remorseful for rushing to Root alone before, and he almost dragged Itachi down with him. Fortunately, Shisui has realized the evil of Konoha's higher-ups and has since turned his heart to the Uchiha clan, which is a good thing.
"Brother Shisui, there's no need to be so polite!" Gen Ye seemed unconcerned. Shisui was indeed lucky to have encountered the former who had just come to Root to seek revenge; otherwise, he would have been in grave danger!
“Let’s go back!” Xuan Ye continued.
The commotion from the fight here was quite significant. Genba avoided summoning the massive wooden dolls and dragons, but that might still attract other Konoha ninjas. Therefore, he decided to leave Root first and return to the Uchiha clan.
Danzo is the leader of Root in Konoha and one of its high-ranking advisors. Killing him would definitely cause a huge uproar in Konoha. What Genba needs to do now is to inform Fugaku about this and make full preparations.
However, if Konoha hadn't been pressing closer, Genba wouldn't have killed Danzo. Since the Uchiha have been oppressed for so many years, there's no need to feign compliance anymore. Otherwise, who knows what methods Konoha's higher-ups will use against the Uchiha next time!
Actually, if Danzo hadn't used the "Reverse Four Symbols Sealing Technique," he could have brought Danzo's body back to the Uchiha clan as evidence. However, Danzo has now disappeared from the world, so there's no evidence left. But it doesn't matter anyway.
If you want to add a crime, there is nothing wrong with it.
Who is right and who is wrong is just a matter of a single sentence from the higher-ups in Konoha.
Truth often lies in the hands of those who hold power.
Just as they were about to leave, Genba and his two companions encountered Kakashi and Yamato, along with other Anbu ninjas, who had come to check on the situation.
Although Kakashi is no longer an Anbu ninja, he is still under the Hokage's jurisdiction. The commotion here still caught the Third Hokage's attention, so he sent a few people over to investigate.
Upon arriving here, Kakashi was shocked by what he saw.
The base was now a ruin, littered with corpses.
When Kakashi saw Genba, he cursed inwardly, "Oh no," and already knew roughly what had happened.
It seems that Genba, Shisui, Itachi, and Root are fighting!
And it depends on the situation.
It was likely that Genba, as the main fighting force, flattened the roots of Konoha!
Oh my goodness.
One person chose an organization.
Just how powerful is Xuan Ye?!
Even Yamato was dumbfounded.
Could it be that this younger brother, who also possesses Wood Release, is actually so powerful?
terrible!
The group approached Xuan Ye within seven or eight meters, wary. Kakashi, his brow furrowed, asked, "Where is Lord Danzo?"
In Kakashi's eyes, Danzo was a Kage-level ninja and should have been able to protect himself!
"I killed him!" Xuan Ye replied calmly, without any hesitation.
"You killed him?" When Kakashi and the others heard the news, they were still very shocked. The man who held immense power in Konoha had died at the hands of Genba.
"Captain Kakashi, there are traces of the Reverse Four Symbols Sealing Technique around here. It seems... Lord Danzo is really dead!" Yamato checked the surrounding environment and immediately saw a neat circular pit in the center of the field. His brows furrowed deeply, feeling that Genba was not lying.
Yamato, being from the Root, knew that only Danzo could use the "Reverse Four Symbols Sealing Technique," but the price of using this forbidden technique was very high, requiring the sacrifice of one's own life.
We'll see how things go now.
Danzo is really dead!
Upon hearing Yamato's analysis, Kakashi's expression became extremely serious.
Genba killed Danzo, which is a terrible crime and may even provoke a war between Konoha and the Uchiha!
Kakashi looked directly at Genba and asked, "Genba, why did you do this?"
"Both the Third Hokage and Danzo wanted to kill me. Everything I did was to protect myself!" Genye said expressionlessly, and then he recounted what had happened, stating the facts without embellishment.
Kakashi, Yamato, and the others also had grim expressions upon hearing this. They knew Genba's personality and knew that the latter had no reason to lie. However, without evidence, would the Konoha leadership, led by the Third Hokage, only listen to Genba's side of the story?
Obviously not!
There are only two possible outcomes for Genba.
First, accept severe punishment from the Konoha leadership, pay with your life, and thus protect the Uchiha clan!
Second, the Uchiha clan and Konoha will go to war, and the victor will be king!
Kakashi believes the second possibility is the most likely!
Moreover, with the Uchiha clan so powerful now, even Konoha wouldn't dare say they can definitely defeat them!
Xuan Ye didn't want to waste any more time here, so he said, "Kakashi-sensei, Tenzo-nii, are you trying to stop me from leaving?"
One sentence silenced the two, but Kakashi still chose to make way for the three of them to leave.
Kakashi didn't want to stop Genyo.
Even if you want to stop it.
Perhaps they were willing but unable to.
Since Genba's strength was enough to crush Konoha's Root, Kakashi didn't think he could withstand him.
Otherwise, you'll just look like a clown.
Genye was slightly surprised. Just as he was about to leave with Shisui and Itachi, the two Anbu ninjas beside him became unhappy.
One of them said, "Captain Kakashi, we can't just let the suspects who attacked Root get away so easily!"
The two looked at Xuan Ye with burning desire. Xuan Ye and the other two had just finished a great battle and looked extremely tired. If they could capture him and present him to the Hokage, it might be a great achievement!
Kakashi's decision to let him leave was incredibly foolish. Not only did he lose this opportunity, but he might also face punishment from the Hokage when he returned.
The two ANBU ninjas grinned maliciously, intending to attack Xuan Ye and his two companions, but Xuan Ye instantly entered "Lightning Armor" mode. With two loud "bangs," the two were sent flying and instantly died.
Neither of them understood until their deaths.
A ten-year-old boy with such terrifying strength!
Kakashi and Yamato could only watch as Genba and the others left.
They know.
A major battle may be about to begin.
The world of Konoha is about to change...
...
Konoha Grand Conference Room.
The atmosphere was heavy.
The Sarutobi, Shimura, Utatane, Mitomon, Hyuga, Nara, Yamanaka, and Akimichi families all attended the meeting.
The Uchiha clan, a powerful bloodline clan in Konoha, did not send any representatives to the meeting.
Upon seeing everyone arrive, the Third Lord said with a solemn expression, "I have something to announce: Danzo is dead!"
After returning.
Kakashi and the others informed the Third Hokage about Danzo's death.
The Third Hokage didn't say anything upon hearing the news. Instead, he silently smoked for half an hour until the office was filled with smoke. Then, he asked Kakashi to summon all the Konoha high-ranking officials except for the Uchiha to a meeting!
The third generation is about to make a major decision!
"Lord Danzo was actually killed!?" Upon hearing this news, Shimura and the others were all in disbelief.
Danzo was not only the head of the Shimura clan, but also the leader of the Root clan. How could he have died so easily?
Even members of other families were so shocked that their mouths were agape!
"Lord Hokage, who killed our clan leader? We must take revenge!" Shimura Takesuke, a high-ranking member of the Shimura clan, glared fiercely, his face filled with murderous intent.
Upon seeing this, the Third Hokage, his aged face heavy with regret, said, "It's Uchiha Genba!"
"It really was him!" Upon hearing the name, Takesuke Shimura's face flashed with boundless hatred.
He believed that only Genba would dare to do something so audacious.
Kakashi said, "Hokage, as far as I know, Danzo attacked Shisui first and even transplanted the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan into his arm. That's why Genba killed Danzo. Perhaps Genba's actions were too extreme, but there was a reason for it!"
Based on the facts.
Kakashi shared his thoughts.
"Kakashi, that's enough! You need to know that it was Konoha that gave you life and raised you, not the Uchiha!" The Third Hokage's expression was filled with hatred as he said, "Is it just a pair of Sharingan that blinded you and made you lose the Will of Fire? How can you face the White Fang who sacrificed himself to uphold the Will of Fire!"
Mentioning White Fang only fueled Kakashi's rage. He gritted his teeth and said, "My father dedicated his life to Konoha, yet he was hurt by rumors and ultimately chose to commit suicide. How could Konoha have done right by White Fang?"
The Third Hokage shook his head, as if disappointed in Kakashi, and said, "Kakashi, you've let hatred blind you. You've disappointed me greatly!"
The Third Hokage glanced around at the Konoha high-ranking officials present and said, "In the name of the Hokage, I have decided to launch a purge of the Uchiha clan in Konoha."
The Uchiha clan is growing stronger and stronger, and we can no longer tolerate this, otherwise Konoha will be controlled by the Uchiha!
"To prevent Kakashi from tipping off the Uchiha clan and to ensure the mission's success, I have decided to remove Kakashi from all his positions in Konoha and imprison him in the Anbu's jail to await further orders!"
"Lord Hokage, this isn't right!" As a close friend, Might Guy couldn't help but speak up for Kakashi.
If Kakashi were truly imprisoned in Konoha, he would be utterly disgraced after the war, making it impossible for him to survive in Konoha ever again.
The Third Hokage shook his head and said, "If a ninja cannot uphold the highest will to protect the village, then he will not be able to have a positive effect on the village, and may even endanger the village's development."
"Guards, take Kakashi to the Anbu prison!"
After the Third Hokage gave the order, two Jonin from the Anbu appeared beside Kakashi and said, "Captain Kakashi, come with us!"
Kakashi used to be a squad leader in the Anbu.
Therefore, it is normal for the two members of the Dark Division to call him captain.
"Alright!" Looking at the packed conference room, Kakashi fell silent, knowing that the Third Hokage had made his decision. Konoha and the Uchiha were about to have a battle. Perhaps when he came out of prison next time, the Uchiha would have already disappeared from the world!
"Could it really be like this?" Kakashi suddenly thought of Genba.
Perhaps if he were there.
Perhaps everything could change.
After Kakashi was taken away by the Anbu ninja.
The Third Hokage rose from his seat, his gaze grave, and approached Might Guy, saying, "Guy, I have another extremely important mission for you. Please help Konoha... eliminate the demon Uchiha Genba!"
“This…” Kai was shocked that the Third Hokage had entrusted him with this task.
After all, in Might Guy's eyes, Gen Ye was a promising young man who was handsome and spoke nicely. He didn't seem like a bad person at all.
Perhaps sensing Guy's concerns, the Third Hokage said, "Guy, everyone has two faces. They may appear gentle and refined in ordinary times, but deep down they may harbor many evil thoughts. Genba Uchiha is such a person. Don't be deceived by his appearance. Please bear the burden for Konoha!"
Sarutobi Asuma chimed in, "Guy, I've fought Uchiha Genba before, and he is indeed a ruthless and vicious person!"
At this moment, Asuma also chose to stand on the side of the Third Hokage. After all, he was the son of the Hokage and enjoyed many advantages brought by his status during his growth. It was normal for him to stand on his father's side at this moment!
Seeing this from afar, Kurenai clenched her fists. She realized that Asuma had changed since returning from the capital of the Land of Fire. He had become blindly arrogant, unreasonable, and particularly hated the Uchiha.
"For Konoha... alright!" Might Guy could only nod helplessly. He didn't want to kill Genba, but rather to persuade him. If he was forced into a corner, he would have no choice but to take action!
"Kai, I knew I hadn't chosen the wrong person. You'll always be just like Dai, an outstanding individual. Konoha is proud of Dai and you!"
Might Dai is Might Guy's father. He was a perennial genin in Konoha and once opened the Eight Gates, turning the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist into a "lucky trio"!
The Eight Gates Formation has serious side effects; opening the eighth gate, the Gate of Death, guarantees death.
Matt Kay never worried about whether he would die.
His concern was whether Konoha would be harmed.
Or, after activating the Eight Gates, he feared killing Genya.
But many things...
Might Guy couldn't make a decision and could only carry out the mission according to the plan of the third generation.
After all, Might Guy is the executor of the Will of Fire.
Then.
The Third Hokage turned his attention to the heads of the Hyuga and other clans.
