The third day after the Uchiha clan decided to rebel.

Konoha Village,

The 'root' headquarters of the Danzo.

Through the narrow secret tunnel, the current Hokage Ape of Konoha Village, Tobi Hichi, walked quickly into the secret base of the 'root'.

His face was full of doubts, obviously very puzzled by the invitation he suddenly received from Tuan Zang today.

Although he and Danzou have been companions for decades, since he ascended to the position of Hokage and Danzou founded 'Root', the two of them have become increasingly estranged due to their differences in political opinions.

Not only are they tense in Konoha's daily high-level meetings, but they never interact even in private.

But today, Tuan Zang suddenly invited him to the headquarters of the 'root', saying that there was something important to discuss, which really made Ape Fei Ri a little confused.

What is this guy selling?

Usually, except for Konoha's high-level regular meetings, he never talks to me about anything, so what's wrong today?

Don't.......

Sarutobi was standing at the door of the No. 1 conference room of 'Root' and thinking, when he suddenly had some bad premonitions.

At that moment, a deep voice came from the conference room.

"Ape Fei, it's all at the door, why don't you come in?"

"Tuanzang? It turns out that you are in the conference room. ”

Ape Feiri pushed open the door and saw Tuan Zang sitting alone on a chair in the conference room.

He walked in slowly, and sat down at random a distance from Tuanzang.

"I thought you weren't here, and I wanted to wait for you at the door."

"Laughing apefei, this is not your Hokage Building, this is the 'root', I am the master here, why didn't I come when you came?"

Danzang slammed on the table coldly, saying something joking, but there was no joke in his tone.

In front of an old friend like Sarutobi, his face was gloomy, and he didn't even bother to put the smile he always used to disguise on his face.

And Sarutobi saw that Tuan Zang's tone of voice was so indifferent, and his face darkened when he was pretending to be polite before.

"Tuanzang, did you come to me today to quarrel with me? Then I'm sorry I can't accompany you! As Hokage, I still have a lot of things to deal with. ”

"Huh...... Our Hokage-sama is really busy! Don't you even have time to listen to a few words from me, a high-ranking Konoha executive? ”

"Don't be in that yin and yang weird group! If you don't say anything more, I'll leave! I'm not used to this eerie place of yours! ”

"Am I gloomy here? Hahaha...... But Sarutobi, I want you to know that if Konoha wants to be strong, in addition to you, the Hokage standing in the sun, you also need us 'roots' hidden in the shadows and buried deep in the soil! ”

Seeing that Ape Fei Ri's face was quite impatient, Tuan Zang didn't continue to speak.

He restrained the look of indignation just now, and suddenly changed his words.

"Sarutobi, the recent movement of the Uchiha clan...... You know what? ”

"Uchiha? What can the Uchiha clan do? ”

"Huh? Sarutobi, the Uchiha clan has been doing a little bit for a while, don't tell me you Hokage don't know! ”

Tuan Zang's sharp gaze swept directly towards Sarutobi Sunslash, only to find that Sarutobi Sunslash was also staring directly at him.

The eyes of the two met in the air, and a cloud of sparks exploded in an instant.

"Although the Uchiha's self-proclaimed clever guys are very low-key, they want to hide everything from the village...... That's impossible! Sarutobi, now that I've gotten the news, I don't think you, the Hokage, will have fewer sources than me! ”

"Tuanzang, say whatever you want! Do we still need to guess dumb riddles in such a veiled way when we talk to each other? ”

"Humph! All right! Ape Fei, then I'll be straight to the point! ”

Danzo stroked his right eye, which was tightly wrapped in gauze, from an injury he had sustained during a mission two years earlier.

He spoke in a cold tone, just as he did with the Uchiha.

"I have received information that the Uchiha clan has secretly held many meetings in the past few days, and the participants are all high-ranking members of the clan, and their whereabouts are strange, as if they are afraid of being discovered by others......"

"Danzang, what do you mean by this......"

"I don't have to say what I mean, do you? Can't you, Hokage, hear what I mean? ”

"Humph!"

Sarutobi covered his mouth and coughed a few times, seemingly dissatisfied with the thorns in everything Tuan Zang said.

"I have also received all this information from you, and I also know that you mean that the Uchiha clan may be plotting to rebel, but based on this one-sided information alone, can I directly convict the Uchiha clan?"

"Of course not, but...... The Uchiha Itachi that you rebelled against before planted in the top echelons of Konoha ...... Isn't he just in the right place to come in this time? ”

"Uchiha Itachi? Danzo! How do you know that Uchiha Itachi is a spy that Uchiha planted into Konoha higher-ups? Do you know that he was rebelled against me? ”

Ape Feiri's cold eyes suddenly became a little colder, and his originally loose fists clenched unconsciously.

"Tuanzang...... How dare you settle your hands in the shadows! Are you really lawless? Do you still have me as the Hokage in your eyes? ”

"What are you angry at, ape flying!"

In the face of the suddenly angry ape flying sun, Tuan Zang's expression was as indifferent as just now: "Don't tell me that my 'root' doesn't have yours!" We're just one another! And...... This is not the time to discuss these things, but now is the time to ..... How to solve the hidden dangers of the Uchiha clan, right? ”

"You're ......! Alas! That's it...... What did you mean by Uchiha Itachi just mentioned? Although we have all received news that the Uchiha clan has not been at peace during this time, my news is not from the Uchiha Itachi, and judging from the news he has received in the past few days, the Uchiha clan is not unusual! ”

"That only shows that Uchiha Itachi guy isn't loyal enough to you! Or ..... He was so stupid that he didn't even notice that his own family was plotting such a big thing! ”

"Enough is Tunzang!"

Sarutobi slammed the table and stood up: "What exactly did you want to do when you mentioned Uchiha Itachi?" Say whatever you want! I really don't have much to talk to with you unreasonable fellow! ”

"Ape Fei, you're still so breathless, even after so many years!"

Danzo stood up from his seat-for-tat, and not to be outdone, he looked at Sarutobi Hichisha: "Since Uchiha Itachi, who is the son of the Uchiha patriarch, is now at your disposal...... With such a useful chess piece, why don't we make good use of it? ”

"Danzo, what the hell do you mean?"

"It's very simple, order Uchiha Itachi to go and report the Uchiha rebellion to the village! I believe that with his identity as the son of the patriarch, what he said is very convincing, right? Then we will be able to annihilate the Uchiha in the name of justice! ”

"You're really crazy Tuanzang!"

Sarutobi propped his hands on the table and said word by word: "Based on those bits and pieces of information, we can't make a conclusion about the Uchiha clan's secret gathering behavior these days, how can we directly pronounce the death penalty on them?" ”

"Hehehe...... Ape Fei, it's really your old style again! ”

Tuan Zang sneered and clapped, his eyes not hiding the slightest ridicule of the ape flying sun.
