Chapter 306 How dare you?

Is it much harder than blowing a breath?

What arrogant words!

Hiruzen Sarutobi, whose entire body was tense, had never felt so powerless as he did today.

He wanted to refute it, but at that speed, even Minato would probably be unable to avoid it.

Flying Thunder God Technique is a space-time ninjutsu, but even Minato needs reaction time, however little it may be.

Having experienced numerous wars, Hiruzen Sarutobi's sixth sense clearly told him: if he dared to make a move, he would surely die!

"Who exactly are you, sir?"

Having already pushed open the door to the Hokage's office, Uchiha Yun turned around and said, "I am just someone who watches you from outside the world. I came here because I was unhappy with you."

"Remember what I said... because fundamentally, I don't want to destroy this village."

"After all, there are only a few fools. You are the kind of idiot that Root remembers to remind him."

"Bang."

The room door closed, and the immense pressure I had felt vanished in an instant.

"call……"

After taking a deep breath, Hiruzen Sarutobi closed his eyes and felt the pressure he had just experienced.

He didn't show off his acting skills just now because that person seemed to know his inner thoughts perfectly well.

……

"Bang bang bang".

"Come in."

A knock sounded on the door, and then an ANBU member knelt on one knee and said, "In addition to Uchiha Sasuke, we have just discovered two more Uchiha survivors."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Kakashi, the situation with the Uchiha clan has exceeded my expectations. Although there has been some turmoil, there must be some members of the clan who have been swept up in the maelstrom."

As he spoke, Hiruzen Sarutobi closed his eyes as if in sorrow: "Itachi Uchiha slaughtered his entire clan and will be classified as an S-rank rogue ninja. As for the remaining Uchiha, I fear that some people will target them, for the sake of their eyes."

Kakashi paused, then looked up and asked, "Root... Danzo?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi replied, "The foundation of Konoha was the alliance between the Senju and Uchiha clans. The Uchiha clan should not have ended up like this. From now on, I need you to protect them. If Root makes any moves, I will step forward."

Kakashi stood up and bowed his head: "Understood."

……

A small boat drifted through the mountains and rivers, its light the only feature in the darkness, heading forward.

"Bang."

The bow of the boat scraped against the rock wall, causing the entire hull to vibrate.

Itachi looked at the masked man rowing the boat: "If you keep getting distracted, we'll have to swim."

Upon hearing this, Obito, wearing a mask, composed himself, but his thoughts still couldn't stop replaying that person from before.

Kamui can be broken at will, and Kaleidoscope can be dug up at will.

In just one glance, before he could even blur his vision, his kaleidoscope was instantly dug out.

And those eyes...

It has the same Rinnegan as Madara Uchiha, but with six additional tomoe. This six-tomoe Rinnegan has even greater ocular power than Madara's.

Who exactly is that guy?

Itachi shared the same question at this moment.

The Tsukuyomi, which cannot be interrupted once it hits, was actually broken and restarted by the opponent, making the caster the one who was affected.

The torment in the Tsukuyomi space, coupled with the other party's words, allowed Itachi to clearly sense the suppressed anger in the other party's heart.

But clearly, the other party didn't want to kill him outright, because killing him wouldn't be difficult for him...

Limbs severed, eyes gouged out, countless long knives plunged into the heart...

This approach is more like torture and venting.

A member of the Uchiha clan?

Only in this way could one understand that hatred. But he had never seen the other person's face, and they weren't much older than him...

and many more!

In the future... there will still be springs...

Could that person be Uchiha Un, whom Sasuke mentioned?

Thinking of this, Itachi rubbed his temples.

For Sasuke's sake, he was willing to fall into darkness.

If Uchiha Yun is Izumi's older brother in the future, then there's no doubt that he would want to kill me.

"What are your thoughts about that person?"

Obito's voice rang out from beneath the mask.

Itachi looked at him and shook his head slightly: "You, who have lived from the Warring States period to the present, don't even know, let alone me..."

Obito frowned slightly; the persona of someone who controlled everything behind the scenes seemed to have developed a crack.

……

The light of dawn leaped over the shadowy rocks and shone on the village, dispersing the once silent night with the sunlight.

The bustling villagers also began their so-called daily lives.

However, at the Konoha Hospital, Sasuke lay on his hospital bed with a furrowed brow, his body tense and trembling slightly.

"Bang!"

He sat up in an instant, and his immense pupil power swept across the ward at that moment.

The next moment, the power of his eyes vanished.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Sasuke, panting heavily, leaned back on the hospital bed. In his dream, he had experienced everything from the previous night once again.

Uchiha... Itachi!

His hands were clenched tightly, and a bluish-green vein bulged on the back of his hands.

Just you wait, it won't be long before I come and kill you!

"squeak……"

Just then, the ward door was pushed open.

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Sasuke with a kind expression: "Are you awake, Sasuke? I'm sorry, as the Hokage, I didn't notice anything unusual about Itachi Uchiha."

Sasuke, with his head down, clenched his fists tightly. Then, when he raised his head slightly, his eyes were already brimming with tears.

"The Third Hokage... No one could have imagined... no one could have imagined that bastard! He... he actually..."

Tears streamed down Sasuke's face. "I will kill him. For my parents and the entire clan, and for the safety of the village, I will kill that bastard! I will!"

Is the village safe?

A hint of relief flashed in Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes, and he said, "After receiving the news last night, I ordered the Anbu to launch a search and rescue operation. Besides you, Sasuke, there are other survivors in the Uchiha clan."

Survivors?

Did he spare anyone besides himself?

"Uchiha Izumi, who was in the same generation as Uchiha Itachi, and her mother, Uchiha Hazuki. Of the Uchiha clan, only the three of you survive."

Sister Quan?!

For a moment, Sasuke almost lost his composure.

Is this Brother Yun?

If he could so cruelly kill even his own parents, there's no way that bastard Itachi Uchiha would spare Izumi-neechan and Hazuki-aunt.

Only Brother Yun, only Brother Yun can stop that bastard's kaleidoscope.

When he was planning to use his eyes in the future, it was Brother Yun who stopped him again. Did Brother Yun exist in this past?

"Sasuke, the village will make proper arrangements for the Uchiha clan's funeral. You should rest well first, and feel free to contact me if you need anything."

Sasuke, with red eyes and a respectful expression, agreed, and then Hiruzen Sarutobi left satisfied.

The door to the ward closed, and Sasuke lay back down on the bed.

……

A week later, the Uchiha clan's funeral was completed, and the village reclaimed the vast Uchiha clan lands.

"Sasuke, you can live with us."

On the way home, Izumi was trying to persuade Sasuke.

However, Sasuke ignored all of this and instead turned around to ask, "Izumi-neechan, besides that person, did you see anyone else that night?"

Hearing this, Izumi paused, then looked at Sasuke and asked, "Why do you ask that?"

After a moment of contemplation, Sasuke said, "That guy is strong, but not enough... not enough to kill his entire clan."

As he spoke, three tomoe appeared in Sasuke's eyes: "Once the Uchiha clan awakens their three-tomoe eyes, they can basically reach the level of Special Jonin."

"Sister Izumi, I am the only male left in the Uchiha clan, please don't treat me like a child."

Looking at Sasuke's resolute face, Izumi hesitated for a moment.

She didn't know why Itachi would do such a thing. When they were little, he clearly cared so much about his younger brother.

At just over eight years old, he had already awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan. Such talent even surpassed Itachi's.

Given this sudden and dramatic change, perhaps we really shouldn't treat him like a child who hasn't graduated yet.

"That night... I saw... a total of three people."

Three?

Sasuke was slightly taken aback. As expected, it wasn't just that scumbag!

"One is Itachi, and the other is someone who wears a mask so his face can't be seen, but that person also has a Sharingan that surpasses the three-tomoe Sharingan."

kaleidoscope!

Uchiha Obito!

The mask and the single Mangekyou Sharingan instantly reminded Sasuke of that guy.

and many more!

If Itachi Uchiha and Obito Uchiha existed, how did Izumi survive?

Seeing Sasuke's furrowed brows, Izumi understood his confusion and explained, "The third person who appeared was the one who saved me. There was no cover-up, but I don't recognize this person."

"He's incredibly skilled. He broke Itachi's genjutsu with just a glance, even causing a backlash. Later, when he and the masked man disappeared for a moment, he dug out the masked man's Sharingan when he reappeared."

At this point, Quan reached out and rubbed his forehead.

Despite the fact that there was no way to avoid such a deadly place at that time, her sixth sense clearly told her that there was no danger.

That feeling... was like a loving gesture between close relatives, very safe.

"Sister Quan".

Sasuke's voice rang out: "If you encounter this person again, you must tell me immediately."

Quan nodded blankly: "I understand. Actually... I really want to thank him. My mother was also spared because of him."

As she spoke, Izumi reached out and ruffled Sasuke's hair: "From now on, the Uchiha clan will only consist of us. Although you didn't like me when we were kids, you can now treat me as family."

Are they relatives?

Sasuke looked at the spring in front of him and was momentarily moved.

But if it really is Brother Yun, then why doesn't he come out and stop that bastard?

With Brother Yun's power, as long as it's not Vortex Sky, who can stop him...

"Whoosh!"

With a soft sound, a masked figure appeared in front of the two.

"Uchiha Izumi, the Hokage requests your presence."

Izumi paused for a moment, then looked at his plain black clothes and said, "Let me go back and change my clothes, then I'll go straight to the Hokage Building."

The ANBU member slightly raised his head and looked directly at Izumi: "No need, now I need you to come with me."

The tone was devoid of any emotion, yet it carried an unquestionable conclusion.

Sasuke frowned slightly and reached out to stop Izumi, who was about to leave with him.

Sasuke then looked directly at the Anbu member in front of him: "You're not an Anbu! Where do you intend to take Izumi-neechan?"

The Root ninja's hand was already on the long sword, and at the same time, he sensed eight chakras around him.

"Disobeying orders will result in death."

Izumi frowned as she looked at the other person, but then reached out and put Sasuke's arm down.

"The Uchiha clan... can't withstand any more turmoil."

Just as they were about to leave, a figure appeared again, wearing the same animal mask and the standard equipment of the Dark Guard.

"You are not the Anbu, and you have no right to use Lord Sanhok to bring Izumi to Root."

Kakashi looked around: "Are you planning to take action right here in the village? Root's actions have already gone too far."

He finished speaking, but no one answered him.

The long sword was drawn instantly, and Kakashi could feel the killing intent all around him.

The roots... are becoming increasingly unbridled. At this point, it's necessary for the Third Generation Elder to step in.

Based on the speed of my shadow clones, I should still have enough time.

"Knock knock knock!"

A crisp sound rang out, and then Danzo slowly walked over, leaning on his cane.

After raising his head, his dead fish eyes glanced at Kakashi: "You... have a problem with that?"

In an instant, immense pressure was placed on Kakashi, and the killing intent hidden in the shadows around him also filled his entire body.

"I can go with you; if it's just to recount what happened, that's fine."

Sasuke, standing nearby, touched Izumi and then whispered, "They're not the Hokage's Anbu!"

Izumi smiled calmly: "Only we are left in the Uchiha clan. I need to go there. If my goal is my eyes, it's nothing."

"If the village needs it, then give it to them..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Izumi walked past Kakashi toward the other person.

In their final moments, a hint of determination lingered in their eyes, and then the group vanished from the spot.

Kakashi frowned.

There were many other factors involved in rescuing Jia in the first place.

Is there still such an opportunity for the Uchiha?

Sasuke clenched his fists, and the backs of his hands were already bulging with blue energy.

The new power has not yet been mastered, and revealing it now might cause Itachi Uchiha, who has already left, to return.

Furthermore, Konoha is not entirely safe for someone like me, an Uchiha.

On the other hand, if Brother Yun exists in this past, then Sister Quan will definitely be fine.

But what if all of that is just me overthinking...?

Can you use your own eyes... or even your life, to ensure your safe growth in Konoha?

This village... is no longer the Konoha I remember!

Is it worth it for a village like this?

"Don't worry too much, Sasuke. You go to school first. I'll bring Uchiha Izumi back."

Kakashi reached out and patted Sasuke on the shoulder.

Sasuke glanced up at him.

The future Kakashi is no stranger to himself; as the disciple of the Fourth Hokage, he already has a layer of protection.

Now... this one seems to have successfully stood behind the third generation.

"I want to go together!"

"Izumi-neechan is my last clansman. I don't know who those people were, but their discipline is different from Itachi's Anbu!"

"The Hokage promised me that I could contact him if I needed anything, and we need his help now."

Kakashi hesitated upon hearing this.

The last of their kind...

Since her father's death, she is now the only one left in the Hatake clan.

Now, Obito's clan is also reduced to only three members, including Sasuke...

"My shadow clone just went to inform the Hokage, and he's here!"

……

In the dim underground atmosphere, the group of the Third Generation had arrived at a bridge leading into the interior.

Looking around, Sasuke realized this was his first time in this place.

In the future, this place will be destroyed by Uzumaki Sora, and Shimura Danzo will be killed. This place will have long since collapsed into ruins.

"Thump!"

The sound of a cane striking the ground rang out, and Shimura Danzo emerged from the shadows, his gaze fixed on the approaching Third Hokage.

"Hiruzen, you rarely come here. Last time, you took Armor with you."

"It seems I had already relieved you of your duties in Root before this... You have no authority to bring Uchiha Izumi here."

Danzo glanced at Sasuke.

Because of Itachi's final warning, and the fact that both Root ninjas he sent out to assassinate him had died, he now felt a degree of apprehension towards Itachi.

The more one learns about the Mangekyou Sharingan, the more terrified one becomes of this power that has surpassed the three-tomoe Sharingan.

Feeling the power in my right eye, and the ten three-tomoe jade pendants on my arm, I wish I had more of this kind of power...

"Itachi Uchiha slaughtered his entire clan, and Sasuke Uchiha may have spared them only because of a final moment of clarity, but Izumi Uchiha and her mother survived..."

"Hiruzen... there must be a special reason for this situation. I suspect that she and Itachi Uchiha are plotting something, which is why I brought her back for questioning."

"Doing this... is also for the safety of the village."

conspiracy?

If that person has some ulterior motive, is there really a need for a so-called conspiracy?

Having witnessed the power of the First Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi knew very well that the mysterious person from that night possessed power that even surpassed that of the First Hokage.

"Izumi Uchiha has already explained to me why she survived. Danzo, you should know exactly what you're doing by bringing her out!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than footsteps echoed in the passage behind Danzo.

Then, Uchiha Izumi walked out unharmed.

But behind him, a large amount of blood flowed from the ground.

In an instant, Danzo's expression changed, and he glared angrily at Hiruzen Sarutobi: "Hiruzen!! You... how dare you?!"

In his rage, Danzo even considered using the power of his right eye.

If I can control him, the Third Hokage, then only I can succeed him as the Fifth Hokage...

But this is not a safe approach.

There are too many Byakugan users from the Hyuga clan in the village, and he could be exposed at any moment. Besides, the other two aren't on his side.
