Chapter 33: Which adult have you ever seen who would get serious with a child?
"stop!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen had obviously been running all the way. He was a little out of breath when he stopped, but he immediately said his purpose of coming: "Miss Uchiha Hikari, I... I promise as the Third Hokage, We will deal with the root assassination issue properly, and please stop immediately!"

"..."

Uchiha Hikari stood there without moving, just tilted his head and looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Although she didn't speak or had any unnecessary expressions, the aura emanating from her made Hiruzen Sarutobi unconsciously clench his palms and sweat drip down his back.

And next to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The two advisors, as well as the ANBU people, spread out a little at a small pace. While getting ready for the battle, they quickly observed the situation around them.

"Third generation sir..."

An ANBU who looked like a member of the Hyuga clan opened his eyes, looked in Danzo's direction, then leaned close to Sarutobi Hiruzen and whispered: "Duanzo-sama is over there, he's still alive, but he's seriously injured..."

"Um?!"

Hearing these words, Sarutobi Hiruzen's pupils trembled: "What did you say..."

Still alive? !
As early as when he received the report from Uzuki Yugan, Sarutobi Hiruzen was already mentally prepared to face the worst case scenario, so he immediately issued an emergency summons and called all nearby Anbu over. Together with two consultants, he hurried over here. But from the time he arrived at the root base to now, the scenes he had seen shocked him, a veteran Hokage who had experienced many battles.

Especially when he entered this corridor and saw Uchiha Hikari, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt an unspeakable fear.

"Defeat Danzo and destroy the entire root base like this...she was not even injured?!"

"No, there seemed to be a few cuts on the arm by Feng Dun, but only the sleeves were torn, but the skin and flesh inside was intact... Could it be that Danzo didn't even have the ability to fight back in front of her?"

"If this is the case, I'm afraid the only way to seal it all away is with corpses..."

But even if he used the zombie seal, Sarutobi Hiruzen was not sure he could win smoothly.

Once the worst happened, and all the top officials of Konoha were buried in this dark cave, he couldn't even think about what would happen to the leaderless village...

Along the way, Sarutobi Hiruzen considered various pros and cons in his mind, and just now he was ready to make the first move.

Can……

"Danzo is not dead?"

This sudden news even surprised Sarutobi Hiruzen.

the other side.

Uchiha Hikari raised the corners of his lips, revealing a bright and bright smile like a girl next door: "Sandaime-sama, you are worrying too much, how could I do such a bloody and cruel thing. After all...have you ever seen any adults? , would you get serious with a child?!"

"?!"

At this moment, the expressions of Sarutobi Hiruzen and the two advisors changed drastically.

Ever since the death of the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama, no one has dared to speak to them in this tone for a long time.

but……

They just haven't been able to refute it yet.

Although from the outside, Uchiha Hikaru is the "little kid". But if calculated from the date of birth, her age is over a hundred years old. Let alone her generation, even the first Hokage Senju Hashirama placed in front of her can only be regarded as a junior. So this seemingly provocative statement is actually a statement of fact.

only……

(Why does this tone of voice sound so similar to that Uchiha Madara from back then...)
"Miss Guang, you are joking."

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled bitterly, looked at Danzo behind the smoke, and spoke slowly with careful consideration: "Previously, I already knew that Shimura Danzo and Nebe secretly planned to assassinate you. And Danzo was suspended at that time, but I didn’t have time to explain to you... The origin of all this is actually a misunderstanding, and it was Root who made arbitrary decisions when the information was insufficient. I will give you a message after the matter is resolved. An explanation.”

This is true.

When he just learned about the root assassination incident, Sarutobi Hiruzen really wanted to go to Uchiha Hikari for an explanation - although he also secretly mobilized the sealing class and the barrier class to be prepared to seal Uchiha Hikaru again.

However, Uchiha Hikaru disappeared after the assassination and was suspected to be dead, so the matter was left unresolved.

If Uchiha Hikaru had appeared two months earlier, Sarutobi Hiruzen would have been more confident whether it was peaceful negotiation to resolve the matter, sealing or killing the opponent. But now, all preparations have been put on hold, and the other party suddenly appears again...

Fortunately, the other party did not kill Danzo on the spot, which made Sarutobi Hiruzen feel a little more at ease.

"hehe."

Uchiha Hikaru sneered and said casually: "There is no need to explain anything, let's talk about compensation."

"compensate?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned slightly.

"I heard that there is a "Book of Sealings" in Konoha, which records many powerful forbidden techniques. I am very curious about it. As compensation for that 'misunderstanding', please lend me the book. How about it? Don’t worry, I’ll return it to you afterwards.”

Listening to Uchiha Hikari's understatement.

Before Sarutobi Hiruzen said anything, Koharu couldn't help it when he went to bed: "This is impossible. The "Sealed Book" was banned by the second Hokage Tobirama's personal order. Only the past Hokages are qualified to read it. How can you, a member of the Uchiha clan..."

"Koharu!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed heavily, interrupted Koharu who was sleeping, and then said with careful tone:

"Miss Guang, the "Sealed Book" is an important thing to Konoha. Unless it is a person who has made outstanding contributions to Konoha, it cannot be borrowed easily... Do you think you can wait until the matter here is dealt with before looking for another one? Let’s discuss it later.”

Eyes facing each other.

"...That's fine."

Uchiha Hikaru nodded calmly.

In Sarutobi Hiruzen's words, he did not say "no borrowing" to death.

In any case, he is the Hokage of Konoha after all. In front of all his subordinates and colleagues, it is difficult to let go easily, otherwise it will be difficult to establish prestige. In this case, Uchiha Hikaru can give him a little face.

But if afterwards, Sarutobi Hiruzen doesn't want this face...

Then she wouldn't mind exercising her authority as an "elder" to teach these younger generations how to behave.

With the "imprint" left behind when she used Tsukuyomi last time, she can pull Sarutobi Hiruzen into the illusion space at any time. If she really wants to fight... it shouldn't be much more difficult than when dealing with Danzo.
