Uchiha, but a Brahmin!

Chapter 119 The Paralyzed Hawking!

Hiruzen Sarutobi is paralyzed!

One morning, Hiruzen Sarutobi opened his eyes in bed and found that he could not control his body. In fact, the flesh on his face began to twitch and eventually twisted into the appearance of a demon.

Now, he can only sit slumped in his wheelchair, head tilted to the side, drooling. The only part of his body that can move is one finger.

"No, I should be the Hokage!!!"

Danzo Shimura roared, glaring angrily at Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was lying in a wheelchair. Hiruzen Sarutobi's last movable finger was pointing at Tsunade not far away, drooling and blinking.

Clearly, things did not turn out as Danzo Shimura believed: that after Sarutobi became paralyzed, facing internal and external troubles, he would choose him to become Hokage, protect Konoha, and lead it to glory.

"Oh……"

Hiruzen Sarutobi rolled his eyes, looked at Danzo Shimura, blinked, and sighed inwardly.

"Danzo, I can't let you become Hokage. Although you possess the Will of Fire, your heart is too dark. I cannot let you become the Hokage of Konoha. You will continue to be the Darkness of Konoha! Assist Tsunade well!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi thought to himself.

"Outrageous! You'll regret this!!!"

Danzo Shimura raised his hand, pointing tremblingly at the paralyzed good-for-nothing, then glanced at Tsunade, snorted coldly, and slammed the door shut as he left.

He was clearly filled with immense anger and regret. He shouldn't have been so soft-hearted; he should have killed the old man, forged his will, and become the new Hokage.

"Damn it, shouldn't he be paralyzed or even unconscious?! How can he still move?!"

Shimura Danzo was puzzled. That damned Orochi Tsubaki had given him fake medicine!

Hearing the door close, Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed with immense sorrow, then closed his eyes, feeling utterly grief-stricken and distressed. Was this what friendship was like between them?

Seeing him paralyzed and reduced to this state, they showed no concern whatsoever. All they cared about was their covetousness for his Hokage position. Sigh, Danzo, you weren't like this before. It's my fault for burdening you with too much darkness, twisting you into a monster!

However, that's precisely why I can't let you become Hokage! You'll continue to be the dark side of Hokage!

"Naruto..."

Involuntarily, the image of a boy appeared in Hiruzen Sarutobi's mind. This boy was the culprit who had caused him to be the way he was now, and Hiruzen felt extremely sad.

He didn't understand why things had turned out this way. Why would such a lively and cheerful child suddenly go berserk and become so powerful? His fighting skills were completely unlike those of a child who had never fought before.

He had already sent people out to search, but they couldn't find him. Naruto seemed to have vanished without a trace.

Furthermore, he later learned from Konoha ninjas that during his battle with Naruto, numerous clones belonging to Naruto were roaming around Konoha, extracting blood from members of various Konoha ninja clans, including civilians.

Multiple Shadow Clone Technique? How come he didn't know Naruto knew this ninjutsu?

"Who are you, and what do you want?!"

After careful consideration, Hiruzen Sarutobi could only conclude that Naruto was being controlled by someone.

"Teacher! Oh!"

Tsunade looked at the paralyzed Hiruzen Sarutobi, walked over, and shook her head. She clearly didn't want to get involved in village affairs anymore, but ultimately…

"Don't worry, teacher, we will protect the village!"

Jiraiya, who had already returned to the village, came over and comforted Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was drooling. Looking at Hiruzen's state, he felt incredibly angry and powerless.

Minato, look what your son has done!

Jiraiya thought to himself, but when he thought that the child might be being controlled, he could only sigh inwardly.

Minato, although you are dead, I have never seen your son more than a few times, never taken care of him once. Although no one takes care of your son, no one cares when his food expires or he gets sick, and no one cares when he is isolated, Naruto is still a part of the village.

Don't worry, as your teacher, I will definitely bring Naruto back!

For the sake of the village, the village cannot lose its Jinchūriki!

"Teacher, I'm leaving!"

Jiraiya shook his head, left the place, and began to peep at other people's wives.

As a strong person, even if he is discovered peeping at other people's wives taking a bath, it's not a big deal. After all, what can the weak do?

Could we possibly beat him into serious injury?

What you lost was only your innocence, while I gained a wealth of material!

……

Hyuga clan.

"..."

Hyuga Neji raised his hand, looking at his arm, recalling how a figure had appeared before him not long ago. Faced with that figure, he was subdued without any power to resist and then had his blood drawn.

He knew that person; he had even met him before.

Naruto Uzumaki, the guy who's been making headlines these past few days, injured the Hokage and fled the village!

"That guy..."

Hyuga Neji touched the Caged Bird on his forehead and sighed inwardly. They were about the same age, so how could someone possess such great power!

……

"Such immense power... could that really be Naruto? Even the Hokage wasn't his match. If I possessed such power... Itachi..."

In the Uchiha clan's territory, a black-haired boy stood in the courtyard, clenching his fists. It was here that he was training when Naruto Uzumaki ambushed him, stomped on him, and had a vial of blood drawn from him.

Even now, he still finds it unbelievable. He knows Naruto all too well; he's a good-for-nothing, a loser who spends his days causing trouble and acting crazy in Konoha. He doesn't know ninjutsu, he doesn't listen in class, he's brainless, he's just a slacker and a loser!

However, this academic underachiever, the worst student, unleashed such tremendous power. His meager strength was as weak and insignificant as an ant in front of Naruto. In fact, even the Hokage was no match for this guy.

Uchiha Sasuke was incredibly envious. If he had such power, he could avenge his parents and clan by killing the one who gave birth to him.

"Everything was fine before, why, why did you kill everyone!"

Sasuke gritted his teeth, filled with immense anger and confusion. He was determined to kill Itachi's father and would never forgive him!

With such immense hatred, how could he possibly understand Itachi's hardships, forgive him, or even fulfill the wish that led to his birth, living his entire life under the arrangement of his birth and never having a good end?

Ha, how could that be!
