I am the most popular character in Naruto!

She looked at Minato in surprise. Minato's mission was just to keep an eye on Hiruzen Sarutobi and the elders and prevent them from causing trouble. How did it turn out like this?

"Don't mention it."

Minato said angrily, "As soon as I arrived at the Third Hokage's place, he knew why I came. That old man has been observing us with his crystal ball."

"The art of telescopes?"

Chiaki raised an eyebrow, thinking that Hiruzen Sarutobi would occasionally use that thing to look at him, and decided to take some time to smash that crystal ball.

"Since the Third Hokage knew what we were thinking, why did you become the way you are now?"

Without even thinking, Chiaki knew that Minato had fought Hiruzen Sarutobi, but the fight was completely inexplicable and unnecessary.

"...Qianqiu, I disagree, you need to know that."

Minato spoke in a calm voice, glancing at the situation below with pity and reluctance in his eyes.

“Not every Uchiha is guilty, and I won’t indiscriminately condemn them all without distinguishing right from wrong…”

"No, Senior Brother Minato."

However, Chiaki interrupted Minato and said firmly, "Itachi's choice is correct."

"Leaving aside the Uchiha clan members who have already been hinted at by Obito... or Jue, do the remaining Uchiha ninjas really have no intention of rebelling?"

"They are a family, they are one!"

“Every success is a blessing, a loss is a loss.”

"With most of their family members rising up in rebellion, would the Uchiha clan members, who already have a strong sense of family honor, give up this opportunity and become traitors to their clan?"

No, they won't.

Qianqiu said decisively, "Those who can make this choice are people who dare to defy the world and are willing to be enemies with the world."

"Within the Uchiha clan, only two people dare to do this."

Her gaze returned to the Uchiha clan's encampment, where the desolate moonlight was now stained with blood. The hazy moonlight was stained with blood, and the blood had gathered into a small stream.

The entire Uchiha clan compound was filled with an aura of death and stained with blood.

Some Uchiha clan ninjas had already woken up from their sleep, but how could they possibly be a match for Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui?

Itachi and Shisui were two generations of unparalleled geniuses in the Uchiha clan, representing the pinnacle of the Uchiha clan's fighting power.

Who could resist the butcher's knives they wielded?

Was it Fugaku Uchiha, who was controlled by Obito Uchiha?

Do not be silly.

"But……"

Minato wanted to say something more, but Chiaki interrupted him again, "I know what you want to say."

"Letting some people go while keeping others is the most foolish thing to do."

"To reiterate, do the Uchiha clan ninjas, with their extremely strong sense of clan honor, really not harbor the slightest resentment after their own family members are suppressed for rebellion?"

"Won't they really go to the other extreme because of your repression?"

"The Uchiha clan... is a clan that is easily manipulated by emotions!"

Chapter 558 Personal Execution

"Chiaki, your opinion is the same as the Third Hokage's, isn't it?"

After listening to Chiaki's words, Minato sighed deeply and gave a helpless, bitter smile.

"I don't know what the old man thinks."

Chiaki shook his head. "But I can tell you very directly that I will not go to save them, nor will I help the Uchiha clan."

"The only thing I can do is to quietly watch all of this and etch this night of the Uchiha clan deep into my heart."

"This is the honor of the Uchiha clan that Itachi Uchiha was willing to risk his life to uphold."

"I don't like the Uchiha clan, but I respect their honor."

Minato fell silent. The Uchiha clan's... glory?

Would that boy be willing to betray his entire clan and bear the painful name of a sinner who wiped out his clan, just to continue the glory of the Uchiha clan?

Minato began to understand Chiaki's thoughts, which were fundamentally different from those of Hiruzen Sarutobi.

She respects the Uchiha clan, and although she dislikes them, she can accept it.

Chiaki was unwilling for the Uchiha clan to perish, but for its glory, she had no choice but to accept its destruction and mourn its passing.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi was different. Having been influenced by the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, he always harbored hostility and vigilance towards the Uchiha clan.

For Hiruzen Sarutobi, any act of betrayal against Konoha was unacceptable. Konoha was a treasure he was willing to sacrifice everything to protect, and he would never allow anyone to defile it.

The Uchiha clan, unfortunately, stepped into Hiruzen Sarutobi's minefield. As a powerful clan in Konoha, they actually dared to dream of overthrowing Konoha and rebelling against it.

This is absolutely intolerable!

Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't outwardly show anything about Itachi Uchiha's actions in annihilating the Uchiha clan's ninjas, but deep down he approved of it.

It was this agreement that made Minato so furious.

The two ended up fighting. Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't try to kill Minato, but he realized that he was no match for him. After causing Minato some trouble, Hiruzen Sarutobi simply left.

Since we can't communicate, then we should just stop communicating.

Once tonight's events are over and everything is settled, Minato will have no choice but to accept it.

Yes, Hiruzen Sarutobi believed that Minato was simply not mature enough; he hadn't yet come to regard Konoha as a treasure like he had.

The atmosphere fell silent. Minato knew there was nothing he could do. If he went down to stop Itachi and Shisui, it would be tantamount to trampling on the honor of the Uchiha clan.

His attempt to stop it served no purpose other than making himself feel a little better.

Itachi and Shisui's imprisonment, coupled with the perceived betrayal of the other Uchiha clan members, could lead to an even greater uprising.

At that point, the Uchiha clan would truly have neither honor nor face, and would become a ticking time bomb that would betray Konoha.

If you don't stop it, then you can, like Chiaki, firmly imprint all of this in your eyes and in your heart, and remember Uchiha Itachi and the glory of the Uchiha on this night.

"Hey……"

Minato sighed deeply. He too was conflicted, unsure of what he truly desired.

Perhaps it was a hope that this farce would stop, that the Uchiha clan ninjas would come to their senses and stop plotting to betray Konoha, or perhaps it was a hope that someone could take their place and prevent all of this from happening...

"Senior Brother Minato, there's one more thing I need to tell you."

Chiaki, with the future in his arms, looked down at the massacre within the Uchiha compound and said to the silent Minato, "Tonight, besides the Uchiha clan members dying, I also want to kill one more person."

"Who?!"

Minato, who had been silent, was startled by Chiaki's declaration of murder. What had this young lady, who had been recuperating all along, done this time? Couldn't we just behave ourselves?

Konoha has already suffered enough today!

"Shimura Danzo."

Qianqiu said succinctly, "I want to kill him."

"???"

"...Lord Danzo is an elder! Chiaki, calm down!"

Minato paused for a moment, then lowered his voice and said to Chiaki, "I know you're very unhappy with him, but there's nothing we can do about it..."

Minato didn't intend to do anything about his junior sister's "outrageous" words; he simply tried to persuade her patiently.

"What do you mean there's no way?"

Qianqiu's peach blossom eyes sparkled, her emerald pupils glancing at Minato before turning back to the distance. She slightly raised her chin and asked, "Minato-senpai, what's that over there?"

"?"

A bad feeling flashed through Minato's mind. He followed Chiaki's gaze and, in the next second, clenched his fist.

"With... soil!!!"

That masked guy was someone Minato kept muttering about through gritted teeth.

The rebellious disciple he taught almost threatened Kushina and Naruto.

For Konoha, Obito's crimes were countless, heinous, and utterly despicable!

At this very moment, isn't the person standing next to Obito Danzo?!

"Shimura Danzo... he was actually colluding with Obito?!"

"Has the root of Konoha rotted to this extent?!"

Minato felt like he was suffocating. He had always treated Danzo with a certain respect and truly regarded him as an elder.

Danzo, who controlled the roots of Konoha and served as its cornerstone, worked tirelessly and handled many shady matters. He was both meritorious and hardworking, and deserves respect.

Even if he has a bad personality, even if Minato finds him annoying, it's just a matter of personal feelings and relationships.

But now it's different.

The moment Minato learned that Danzo was colluding with Obito, he immediately sentenced Danzo to death in his heart!

Obito acted recklessly because of brainwashing, but that doesn't represent his subjective will, so there's still a chance to clear his name.

Danzo is absolutely beyond redemption!

To collude with foreign enemies to destroy Konoha, to murder for personal gain and power, and to betray one's country for personal glory—this is absolutely intolerable!

"He's waiting for the Uchiha clan to be wiped out."

Chiaki added fuel to the fire for the already furious Minato in a soft voice, "After all the Uchiha clan ninjas are dead, he will go and collect Sharingan. Don't ask me how I know, and don't ask Danzo what he's collecting Sharingan for. You know what I mean."

"The Sharingan is Konoha's secret, and the Uchiha clan is Konoha's glory!"

Minato's expression was stern, and he uttered a few cold words, "Danzo, I will execute him personally!"
