Chapter 823 Clan Chief, you should kill yourself!
Other clansmen were moved to their quarters.

They all looked at the old woman sitting in the main seat, some silent, some helpless, and some desperate.

Because they knew that after Hiruzen Sarutobi's farce ended, their Utatane clan would be purged, since some of them had also participated in Hiruzen Sarutobi's plan.

Some of the clansmen were even reborn through the impure earth, and during the reckoning, those people would also be purged.

With Xuan Yu's strength,

These people are simply no match for the fact that if they are really investigated, the Tōshin clan may be wiped out in an instant.

Those who frequently switch dorm rooms simply cannot handle it.

Therefore,
When someone asked what to do next, everyone's eyes turned to Tsurugi Koharu, who was sitting in the main seat, and her close confidants.

It was these few people's wrong decisions that led to the fate of the Tōshin clan, and even their near extermination.

Then,

我们 该 怎么 办?
It was up to Itachi and Koharu to figure out a solution themselves, since... it was Koharu who made the mistake.

"What do you mean? Clan Chief Koharu only cooperated with Hiruzen Sarutobi because she wanted our Utatane clan to prosper. Now that something unexpected has happened, you want to cause trouble for the clan chief?"

Koharu Tsurugi didn't speak, but those who had always supported her couldn't help but shout angrily when they saw the strange looks from their clansmen.

Things haven't even gotten to that point yet, and these people are already questioning us. Are they trying to force me to resign?
"Have you forgotten how much benefit the clan leader gained from befriending Hiruzen Sarutobi?" another person said aggressively. "You benefited from the clan leader's friendship with Hiruzen Sarutobi, and now that the clan leader is in trouble because of this, are you trying to shift the blame?"

"You people are also beneficiaries! Now you know how to make things difficult for the clan leader, you bunch of ingrates!"

"If Hiruzen Sarutobi wins this time, are you going to continue enjoying the benefits brought by the clan leader and pretend you don't know anything about other things?"

Every word this man spoke exposed the pretense of the other tribesmen.

At the beginning,

These people, relying on the power of the Utatane clan, have done many domineering things, evading missions, accumulating large sums of money, and some have even committed crimes that were punishable by death because of Utatane Koharu.

But now that the clan leader is in trouble because of this matter, they've come to force him to step down?
Saying that the clan leader should find a solution is just a way to force Xiaochun to step down and then take the initiative to apologize to Xuanyu, which might make some amends.

but,

Those clansmen who were confronting Koharu Utatane looked righteous and spoke to the group: "We admit that we have gained a lot of benefits under the protection of the clan leader, but we did not know that you had placed the Root Laboratory within the Utatane clan and were conducting experiments that would harm civilians!"

The man spoke with righteous indignation, and added at the end, "If I had known about the evil deals you were making, I would have risked my life to stop you!"

"We had no idea that you and your tribe were conducting those heinous experiments!"

"We didn't know, and we absolutely shouldn't have done such a heinous crime!"

"I agree. We shouldn't do things that are utterly immoral."

The others echoed their sentiments, believing that Koharu Utatane's decision to let those people in was a mistake, and that this was precisely why a battle had broken out within the Utatane clan, and why the fighting was escalating. Those who sided with Koharu Utatane turned pale; these clansmen were ingrates, they hadn't expected them to directly oppose them now.

"When the Root people set up their base here, didn't you know?" one of them said, looking at the leader. "We discussed it back then!"

"We knew the Roots were here, but we didn't know they were doing such a heinous thing!" the leader retorted with a cold snort, defending himself.

Actually, when the Roots were assigned to the clan, and even when they sneaked in, they knew they weren't researching anything good. But now that they were in a standoff, they had no choice but to lie and say it against their conscience.

after all,

We need to resolve some issues before we can proceed.

"You..." As the head of the Utatane clan, Koharu Utatane was somewhat annoyed by the words of condemnation, but she couldn't help but speak up: "What's done is done, what do you want me to do?"

Xiaochun, who had been sleeping with the emperor, was also disheartened. She had worked diligently for her family, only to be forced to abdicate in the end.

She did this for the sake of her family, yet she faced so much criticism.

At the time, she had no choice. If she hadn't joined Hiruzen Sarutobi's camp, her clan would probably have been wiped out long ago. But now, those angry clansmen might not believe her if she said this.

"Clan leader, I won't say anything too harsh, you've sacrificed so much for the clan!" The leader looked at Koharu Utatane before speaking, "Take your own life!"

Uh?
moment,

Koharu's eyes narrowed. Was she going to commit suicide?
Are these words spoken by one's own people?

"Outrageous! The clan chief has done so much for us, and you actually let her commit suicide? Are you even a member of the Zhuanqin clan?"

"presumptuous!"

"You dare..."

Those who supported Koharu Tsunematsu couldn't help but speak up, angrily telling him that those who were forcing him to abdicate were like ingrates.

"Are you sure you want me to kill myself?" Koharu Tsurugi stopped the angry shouts of the group, frowning as she spoke slowly and deliberately, "Do you think that killing yourself will absolve Xuan Yu of your past crimes?"

"Once you're dead, I'll take your corpse to the Uchiha clan to plead guilty, and perhaps they'll spare our Utatane clan!" The leader of the group who was forcing the issue couldn't help but speak up, his tone solemn: "As for whether they'll spare us or not, that depends on Uchiha Gen'yu's decision!"

"Heh. This isn't over yet, and you're already thinking about currying favor with the Uchiha clan?" The person next to him couldn't help but mock, "Do you think the Uchiha clan would accept your surrender like Hiruzen Sarutobi did?"

As a staunch supporter of Koharu Tsurugi, I still can't help but mock those who waver.

"What if I say no?" Koharu, who was also turning her head, frowned and spoke again.

"Then we can only apologize to the clan leader!" The leader of the group who was forcing the abdication stepped forward, his eyes filled with a menacing and murderous intent as he looked at Koharu Utatane.
"You've seen Uchiha Genyu's strength; we simply can't resist him!"

"If you don't agree, then we'll have no choice but to send the clan leader to the Pure Land!"

In an instant, the atmosphere within the clan shifted, tensions rose, and their sharp edges were fully revealed.
