Crossover: The Strongest Uchiha, the Ninja World is in Turmoil!

Page 172

This was clearly Kawasaki's scheme, designed to put pressure on the Third Hokage.

Since no one was injured and Kawasaki was willing to pay for the repairs of the Hokage Rock, Jiraiya decided not to hold it against him...

Kawasaki waved behind Jiraiya: "Jiraiya, I forgot to tell you, Tsunade wants to see Naruto. Naruto is coming to my house for dinner tonight."

Jiraiya paused, then waved his hand: "Understood."

Kawasaki called for Yuto.

"Yasuto, mobilize the Hyuga guards. Put aside what you're doing now and take care of this area..."

As Kawasaki spoke, he drew a circle on the map.

"Check everything with your eyes; there are quite a few explosive tags around here."

"Explosive tags!?"

The brave man was taken aback.

Although most of the areas in Kawasaki are sparsely populated, there are some areas that are quite crowded.

If those places really do contain explosive tags, the consequences of detonation would be unimaginable.

"I won't go into the specifics right now. Have your men clear out the detonators in those areas. Then record the detonation points for me."

"Yes! Kawasaki-sama!"

Kawasaki will soon take over as clan leader, and he has a good relationship with Hiashi.

Besides, he had helped Yuto back then.

Commanding the Hyuga clan was naturally a piece of cake.

.....

In Konoha Village.

Inside the dungeon.

Under the watchful eyes of numerous secret agents, the lonely Danzo reluctantly entered his cell.

The entire cell was covered with talismans to suppress ninjutsu, and the cell door was made of a special material.

Given Danzo's advanced age of over sixty, escaping would not be easy.

Not to mention, a group of Hyuga experts patrolled in shifts, completely blocking any escape route.

After locking the cell door, the Third Hokage waved to signal the Anbu to leave.

A moment later, only Danzo and the Third Hokage remained.

Danzo remained expressionless, as if he were in an office rather than a prison.

Only the occasional flicker of emotion in his eyes betrayed his true feelings.

"Hiruzen, what do you want?"

The Third Hokage stared at Danzo for a long time before finally speaking: "Danzo, your ambitions are too great."

Danzo sneered upon hearing this: "Hiruzen, when you first became Hokage, you used me quite a bit. What, are you now turning your back on me after you've served your purpose?"

The third generation was not angered. In the early days of his reign, he cooperated well with Danzo, suppressing the major families both openly and covertly.

Nowadays, apart from the Uchiha and Hyuga clans, the ninja clans in Konoha are basically only those loyal to the Hokage.

All of this is thanks to Danzo's black gloves.

But the situation changed later. After the Nine-Tails' rampage, Danzo's ambitions became uncontrollable.

Over the years, Danzo has been secretly expanding his influence, but it's a dilemma whether to use him or abandon him.

However, under pressure from all sides, the third generation has made up their minds.

"If I had stopped you sooner, things might not have turned out this way."

"Hmph, stop feigning compassion. Stop it? Didn't you hint at wiping out the Senju clan back then? Why would I scheme to kill Nawaki?"

"If Nawaki were alive today, the entire Hidden Leaf Village would still be under the rule of the Senju!"

The Third Hokage sighed: "Then you shouldn't have revealed Kato Dan's whereabouts."

Danzo sneered, "Back then, Kato Dan possessed the art of spirit transformation and had already noticed something amiss. If we don't eliminate him, are we going to wait for him to discover the truth?"

The third generation remained silent, took a drag of his cigarette, and amidst the swirling smoke, complex emotions flickered in his eyes.

"Besides, so what if it was leaked? You were the one who covered it up for me afterwards."

"You're locking me up now because Tsunade's back, aren't you? You want to use me to apologize to Tsunade?! Don't forget, you're also involved in Nawaki's death!"

The Third Hokage lowered his eyes, concealing his emotions: "Nawaki and Dan have been dead for many years, and there is no way to verify their identities. I will not hand you over to Tsunade."

Danzo scoffed, "So what do you plan to do?"

The Third Hokage looked up, his face calm: "Now that the Uchiha clan's power has greatly increased, Kawasaki's attempt to win over outsiders is to force me to compromise."

“Back then, when you suppressed the Uchiha, you offended Kawasaki. He not only pressured me through Tsunade and Jiraiya, but also through them.”

"You'll stay in jail for a while. Once things calm down, I'll find a chance to release you."

......

Danzo's eyes flickered: "Hiruzen, how can I trust you?"

The third generation spread their hands: "We've been cooperating for so many years, don't you trust me? Without you, there are some things that are inconvenient for me to handle."

Danzo stared intently into the Third Hokage's eyes: "What about my Anbu?"

The Third Hokage said frankly, "Your Anbu will remain unchanged. Once Kawasaki takes over as clan leader, I will naturally release you."

"Alright, Hiruzen, I'll trust you this time."

"You'll have to make do here for a while. If you need anything, just tell the guard and I'll take care of it."

Danzo walked to the bedside in the cell and sat down: "Let my ANBU doctor take a look. I still have injuries and need further treatment."

The third generation pondered for a moment, then nodded and left the dungeon.

Danzo watched the Third Hokage's departing figure, raised his right hand, his eyes flickered a few times, and finally lowered it.

As the third generation emerged from the dungeon, the gentleness in his eyes was gradually replaced by determination, and his expression slowly turned serious.

......

Uchiha clan territory.

On the training ground.

"Chidori!"

A flash of light appeared in Sasuke's hand, and he rushed towards Naruto.

With the help of his clones, Naruto created a Rasengan.

·····Requesting flowers·········

"Spiral pills!"

"boom!"

The two attacks collided fiercely, and the grass scattered amidst a deafening roar.

After a brief stalemate, both of them were blasted away.

As Naruto landed, his shadow clone caught him.

Sasuke stumbled back several steps, only to bump into someone's arms.

Sasuke looked up and saw that it was his older brother Itachi.

"Alright, Sasuke, the match ends here."

Sasuke was quite dissatisfied: "Naruto and I haven't decided who's better yet!"

Itachi looked at Sasuke's bloodstained arm.

"is it?"

Itachi spoke calmly, then suddenly grabbed Sasuke's left hand.

"Can you still move your left hand?"

"Uh..."

Sasuke felt a piercing pain in his left arm.

"Sasuke, are you alright?"

Naruto steadied himself and quickly ran over.

"I'm sorry, Sasuke, I..."

Naruto was somewhat bewildered when he saw Sasuke's left hand.

Sasuke glanced at Naruto and saw that he was almost unharmed. He turned his head and said angrily, "It's none of your business!"

Before Itachi could speak, a figure suddenly flashed to Sasuke's side and struck Sasuke on the head with a sharp rap.

Sasuke was so dizzy from the knocking that he almost fell to the ground.

"What, can't accept that you lost?"

Kawasaki's voice came through.

Kawasaki looked down at Sasuke, his face hidden in shadow, his expression unreadable.

Sasuke whispered, "Sensei..."

Naruto scratched his head, standing to the side: "Kawasaki-senpai..."

"Naruto, don't speak yet."

Kawasaki interrupted Naruto.

"I was perfectly fine when I left this afternoon, how did a fight break out?"

Sasuke pinched his sore left hand and turned his head away: "I noticed last time that Naruto always let me win in the previous matches."

"So your kaleidoscope has evolved, and you want to verify it again?"
