Only I can make Konoha Village great again.

Uchiha Shisui stood up: "Hatsukyu-senpai, I'll take Itachi home to rest right away."

Yamanaka Chujiu said, "Once you two have fully recovered and still have the courage to continue listening to me talk about the 'kill line,' you are welcome to do so at any time."

Uchiha Shisui sincerely thanked him, saying, "Thank you very much, Senpai Chu Jiu..."

Yamanaka Chujiu gave a strange smile: "If you are truly grateful to me, then grant me one request."

Uchiha Shisui hesitated for a moment before asking, "Please feel free to speak, senior."

Chu Jiu's smile became even stranger, and it also carried a hint of nostalgia: "Don't worry, my request is very simple. I won't let you do anything that would harm the village or the Uchiha clan."

"Remember, when you get back you can tell Uchiha Fugaku about the 'cutting line,' but when he asks who told you this, you must make him promise not to implicate me before you tell him my name."

Uchiha Shisui breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the request was so simple.

The information revealed in the theory of the "cutting line" is too important for the Uchiha clan; he must tell it to Uchiha Fugaku.

I believe that Fugaku Uchiha can understand the concept of the "kill line" and appreciate the value of this theory.

The mere statement that "the Third Hokage was never Shimura Danzo, and Root can never represent the Hokage" gave Uchiha Shisui hope.

To break the awkward situation where the Uchiha clan is not trusted by the Hokage and to resolve the hope of the Uchiha clan being isolated.

Uchiha Shisui solemnly promised, "Please rest assured, Hatsuyu-senpai, no matter how Fugaku asks, I will absolutely not reveal your name before he makes this promise."

"I assure you, even Itachi won't say that we won't drag you and the Yamanaka clan into the Uchiha's predicament."

"That's excellent!"

Yamanaka Hatsukyu was extremely satisfied with Uchiha Shisui's performance.

He is exceptionally talented, powerful, honest, intelligent, grateful, and knows a bit about human relationships.

If it weren't for his loose tongue and tendency to speak carelessly, Uchiha Shisui would have been a perfect ninja.

Regardless, Uchiha Shisui was worth the risk Chu Jiu took to pull him out of his predicament.

After Uchiha Shisui left with Uchiha Itachi, Yamanaka Hatsukyu brewed another pot of fruit tea and slowly savored its sweet taste.

But what pleased him even more was the overwhelming love that overflowed from the two boys as they were violently shaken by the dark truth.

Because of the two boys' belief in Chu Jiu in the mountains, and because of the purity of their hearts, the Heartbreak Realm absorbed all the spiritual fluctuations and transformed them into Chu Jiu's spiritual power almost without any loss.

In just a short while, he felt himself becoming stronger.

I even vaguely sensed the limits of my body.

Limits are both the upper limit of human ability and the starting point for change.

It has to be the Uchiha clan, that's how they start to trust me.

Think about the children of the forty-three bereaved families. That represents a whole year of sincere dedication and financial support. Yet, out of more than fifty children, very few wholeheartedly trust Shan Zhong Chu Jiu.

Therefore, the Uchiha clan is a "rich mine," and it's easy to mine!

Even if it's just to protect the Uchiha clan, Yamanaka Hatsukyu has to confront the Third Hokage's group.

Now that we've met, there's no need to put up with it anymore!

Yamanaka Hatsukyu admitted that he could not tolerate Shimura Danzo's brutality.

One arm could cost at least five Uchiha Jonin their lives; this kind of monstrous behavior is too cruel!

He also couldn't tolerate Hiruzen Sarutobi's cowardly nature—his outward ninja nature was actually quite cruel!

When an enemy breaks into the Hyuga clan and kidnaps children, the Third Hokage forces the Hyuga ninja to commit suicide and flatters the Hidden Cloud Village. This is something no human being could do!

But what he could not tolerate even more was the Third Hokage's despicable act of seizing the Fourth Hokage's property and bullying the son of a hero!

In the future, the scarf that Sarutobi Konohamaru wears will be hand-knitted by Uzumaki Kushina as a gift for the unborn Naruto!

But what I found most unbearable was the game played by the Third Hokage and Shimura Danzo!

The elite Wood Release ninja codenamed "Armor" represented the lives of sixty children, and he had committed more than ten similar atrocities before Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Hiruzen Sarutobi summoned Danzo Shimura and questioned him about why he did this.

Then a classic play will be performed:

Group: You'll regret it!

Ape: I'm on fire!

Door: Bang!! (Feeding me peanuts)

Finally, Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed and reluctantly accepted reality.

No matter how big the matter was, no matter how many people died, it was all put on hold, and Danzo didn't even have to drink three cups of slap on the wrist.

They're not managing Konoha Village, they're just playing a game!

Play at a 60th class reunion!

Yamanaka Hatsukyu is determined to change all of this and make up for the regrets that will happen to Konoha Village in the future.

However, he will not show up directly.

When Yamanaka Hatsukyu was born, Hiruzen Sarutobi was already the Hokage, and everyone in Konoha Village had long been accustomed to his rule.

Habit is one of the most powerful forces in the world.

Even the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, was used to the leadership of the Third Hokage and was naturally sidelined as a puppet Hokage, unable to regain his position for a whole year.

To openly and blatantly oppose the Third Hokage is to oppose the entire Hidden Leaf Village and more than 20,000 Hidden Leaf ninjas.

Unless one possesses extraordinary strength like Madara Uchiha, capable of overwhelming Konoha Village single-handedly, it would be impossible to defeat Konoha Village and overthrow the Third Hokage's rule.

The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, was invincible, but Danzo Shimura, whom he unreasonably protected, was not.

The greatest difficulty in killing Shimura Danzo lies in his elusive nature; his travel routes and times are secrets of Konoha, even the Third Hokage couldn't keep track of them, let alone outsiders.

But the ninth day in the mountains is different.

No matter how secretive Shimura Danzo's actions were, he still had to inform some of the Root ninja so that they could design action plans, prepare supplies, and solve various trivial problems.

As the leader of Root, Lord Danzo's time is incredibly precious, and he must use it as much as possible to think about how to "protect" Konoha Village, and he will not waste it on dealing with trivial matters.

If the Root ninjas know, it's the same as if Yamanaka Hatsukyu knows.

As long as Shimura Danzo leaves the village, Yamanaka Hatsukyu can ambush him at any time.

The problem is that the ninth day of the month lacks sufficient strength to decisively eliminate Danzo, making it easy for him to remain alive.

"No rush," Yamanaka Chujiu said to himself. "There's still plenty of time. We can't rush into killing people."

"Besides, not killing people doesn't mean I can't be disgusting to them."

With the Uchiha brothers taking the initiative to come to him, Yamanaka Hatsukyu established a solid connection with the Uchiha clan, making it much more difficult for Shimura Danzo to bring them down.

But the Uchiha clan wasn't enough; the one who could truly threaten the Third Hokage was Orochimaru, who wanted to take Yamanaka Hatsukyu as his student.

If Orochimaru changes his mind and becomes willing to become the Fifth Hokage, everything in the future will naturally change.
