Naruto: Starting with the power of two systems

"You actually asked me why?"

“That bastard Ryosuke Uchiha dared to imprison my child, making me lose face. How could I let them get away with it?”

"The Hidden Cloud Village is also a bunch of useless people. Even if they combined the strength of the whole village, they still couldn't handle the two clans."

The people in the mountains are even more heartbroken.

"Third Hokage, aren't you afraid that the two clans will be defeated or even wiped out, and that the Hidden Cloud Village will demand a large sum of compensation from the Hidden Leaf Village, or even demand the land of the Land of Fire?"

The third generation then explained.

Anyway, the truth has already been revealed.

"We might lose some money, but the Hidden Cloud Village will also pay a heavy price to eliminate these two clans, and they won't dare to start another war then."

"If they dare to go too far, we are not incapable of fighting them."

Upon hearing this explanation, Shan Zhong felt even more disappointed. For such a reason, they had disregarded the interests of the village.

They naively believed that the Hidden Cloud Village would retreat after paying a small price.

How could that be? The people of Kumogakure are all greedy.

He initially thought it was a stretch to attribute the deaths of the Second Hokage, the Fourth Hokage and his wife, and Sakumo Hatake to the Third Hokage.

But in retrospect, it wasn't unfair at all; the Third Hokage simply didn't care about the deaths of talented people in the village.

They valued his foolish child even more.

The news of what his son Asma did has spread throughout the village. He burned down an entire street and injured many people. Is there any justice in not putting such a criminal in jail?

Was he not saying anything?

He simply returned quietly to his seat.

The Third Hokage was actually this kind of person; it's truly disheartening.

The other clan leaders were equally incredulous, never expecting the Third Hokage to actually do it.

It's ridiculous that the Shadow of the Village is a traitor.

Chapter 197 Suicide Due to Guilt

They actually prioritized their own personal grudges over the interests of the village.

It's utterly shameful.

Anger surged within him.

Hiashi Hyuga was also filled with anger.

Unexpectedly, the village really did have a traitor, and that traitor was actually the Third Hokage.

It almost led to the annihilation of the entire family's elite.

If all the elite members of the Hyuga clan who went into battle died on the battlefield.

So what should the Hyuga clan do?

How can he explain this to his ancestors?

Ryosuke smiled when he saw the Third Hokage admit his crimes.

Now look who will plead for him.

At this moment, Hiashi Hyuga also spoke up.

"I support the death penalty."

The Third Hokage's actions had thoroughly enraged him.

Only the death penalty could vent the anger in his heart.

Ryosuke was satisfied with the Hyuga clan leader's answer and continued to inquire about the other clans.

"What about the three clan leaders, Ino-Shika-Cho and Inuzuka-Cho?"

Shikaku sighed. He hadn't expected the Third Hokage to do something like this. Since that was the case, there was nothing he could do.

"Let's judge according to the rules of Konoha Village."

The other three remained silent, agreeing with Shikaku's statement.

The other clan leaders remained silent, indicating that they had no further objections.

How could they dare to disagree? They'd be suspected of being accomplices.

The Third Hokage went too far this time, killing Shisui. However, given his status as Hokage, he shouldn't be sentenced to death.

However, tipping off Kumogakure and revealing military secrets is already considered betrayal of the village.

Committing such a heinous crime is absolutely unforgivable.

Seeing that no one had any objections, Ryosuke asked one last question.

"Third Hokage, do you have any objections?"

The third generation felt wronged; how could such a ruthless person make me judge myself?

Now that his own life was in danger, he began to regret what he had done.

Perhaps it would have been better to step down sooner, but there's no going back now.

But he still has his own family to protect.

“I did all of this by myself. I accept the trial, but it has nothing to do with my family. Please do not implicate them.”

The clan leaders present watched the Third Hokage being judged, feeling helpless; this Third Hokage was far too disappointing.

Compared to the First, Second, and Fourth Hokage, he was far from being bad; he betrayed the village and the Will of Fire.

As for letting the Sarutobi clan go?

Would the Uchiha clan let them go? Absolutely not.

The traitorous actions of the third generation nearly led to the destruction of both races.

Even if they let the Sarutobi clan go, they felt that the Uchiha would definitely suppress the Sarutobi clan severely.

Just like when the Nine-Tails attacked, the Uchiha clan was wrongly suspected of being involved in the attack and was even suppressed to the point that they couldn't hold their heads up in the village.

Even the Sarutobi clan will meet such an end.

Thinking of this, the clan leaders present also felt guilty, not only for wronging the Uchiha clan, but also for almost causing a serious mistake.

Uchiha Hachimoku sneered inwardly. Having brought such humiliation to the clan, how could the Uchiha clan possibly give the Sarutobi clan a friendly face?

At this moment, Ryosuke spoke.

"As long as the Sarutobi clan doesn't violate Konoha's rules, I won't bother them."

6|4|6|1|3|6. |6|5|9|

Upon hearing this, the Third Hokage was somewhat incredulous. Could it be that the other party really wouldn't cause trouble for his clan?

"You keep your word?"

Ryosuke said dismissively.

Are you questioning me?

Unless the Sarutobi clan is courting death, he has no reason to bother with such a small family.

Uchiha Hachimoku looked surprised. Ryosuke actually chose to do this? Had he forgotten the humiliation of the past?

Fugaku, however, agreed with the decision.

Afterwards, he kept his clansmen in check to prevent them from causing trouble for the Sarutobi clan. Ryosuke must have had a deeper meaning in doing this.

The Third Hokage laughed heartily.

"I remember what you said, and I also ask the clan leaders to tell me how the Uchiha clan will act in the future."

"I have failed the Second Hokage's trust. I will deal with myself now, so there is no need for you to do anything."

After saying that, his veins bulged all over his body, his face contorted in a ferocious expression, and his chakra surged wildly within him as he severed his own meridians and died.

The Third Hokage thus perished.

Apart from the Uchiha clan, the Hyuga clan was also in a somber mood.

Although the Third Hokage made such a grave mistake, his suicide can be seen as preserving his last bit of dignity.

They still hadn't completely shaken off their impression of the Third Hokage, which was a huge blow to them.

Compared to them, Fugaku was excited at this moment. He admired the Third Hokage for having the courage to commit suicide.

At least we won't get the Uchiha clan's hands dirty.

The position of Hokage in Konoha Village is now vacant.

But we can't rush things now; let's see what Ryosuke does next.

Ryosuke is in a good mood now. The Third Hokage is dead, and he committed suicide to atone for his sins.

This is the best outcome for the Uchiha clan; they won't have to bear the stigma of killing the village's Kage, even if that Kage was a traitor.

"Give the Third Hokage a proper burial, let him go to the underworld to give an account to the Second Hokage."
