"Third Hokage, you've finally arrived." Uchiha Touhuan, who had remained silent until now, finally spoke slowly.

"Touhuan, what exactly happened?" Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at the half-dead Danzo on the ground before asking Touhuan Uchiha.

"This morning, we received a mission from the village, but we were ambushed on the way," Uchiha Touhuan said calmly. "After the three of us killed all the attacking ninjas, we found Lord Danzo's remains among their corpses."

"You're talking nonsense! How could Danzo possibly go to intercept and kill you!" Mitomon Homura immediately retorted angrily.

"No matter what, that's the truth," Uchiha Touhuan said calmly. "During our fight, he revealed the Sharingan on his arm. The three of us killed him as if he were a thief who stole our clan's blood, only to find out that he was Elder Danzo."

"Hiruzen, don't believe his nonsense! This is clearly a frame-up by the Uchiha clan after they killed Danzo!" Koharu Utatane chimed in.

"The Uchiha clan would never desecrate the remains of their own kin!" the Uchiha clan elder behind Uchiha Touhuan roared.

"What we discovered is not just the Sharingan." Uchiha Touhuan was not annoyed by the doubts. He simply removed the Sharingan from Danzo's arm one by one and then removed the sealing technique that had been placed on it. The unrestrained Hashirama cells instantly swallowed Danzo's remains, turning them into a twisted wooden stake.

"This is... Wood Release?" Some of the older generation of ninjas present recognized what it was. At the same time, Uchiha Touhuan signaled to Inahime to throw Yamato off his back.

"During the battle, we also discovered this ninja who can use Wood Release. I don't need to explain what that means." Uchiha Touhuan looked intently at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"How dare you desecrate the remains of the First Hokage!" The one who spoke was a dove-like elder of the Uchiha clan. This elder had always respected the First Hokage, and seeing this scene, he naturally could not accept it.

At this moment, the ninjas on the Hokage's side also showed some fluctuations on their faces. After all, Danzo's actions were no less than defecating on their beliefs.

Hiruzen Sarutobi knew he could no longer remain silent: "Everyone, I will have people investigate all of this thoroughly and give you all an explanation. Please give me some time!"

"We can't trust them! Touhuan! You've led us in rebellion! You've awakened Lord Madara's eyes! You can definitely lead our Uchiha clan to glory!" Hiruzen Sarutobi's words clearly failed to quell the Uchiha clan's anger, and two radicals immediately stood up and shouted.

Shisui and Itachi were in a panic in the crowd, but their clansmen had already fallen into a frenzy.

The two people in the crowd exchanged a glance and made up their minds at the same time to stop it, even if it cost them their lives.

But at that moment, Uchiha Touhuan suddenly turned around and shouted, "Shut up, all of you!"

Upon hearing Uchiha Touhuan's words, the Uchiha clan, who had been clamoring for rebellion just a second ago, were instantly stunned, and several elders of the martial arts faction stared at Uchiha Touhuan in disbelief.

Uchiha Touhuan's three-tomoe eyes had transformed into Mangekyou Sharingan. He then reprimanded without mercy, "What nonsense are you spouting! Konoha was founded by the First Hokage and Lord Madara! We were born here, we grew up here, this is our home! We drink the water of the Naka River and eat the food grown in the same rice paddies as the village; we are also part of this village!"

Upon hearing Uchiha Touhuan's words, Shisui and Itachi were both taken aback. Did Uchiha Touhuan not want to rebel?

"Clan leader, you agree, right?" Uchiha Touhuan then looked at Uchiha Fugaku, who had remained silent.

Fugaku Uchiha gave Touhuan Uchiha a deep look, then stepped out of the crowd and bowed to Hiruzen Sarutobi: "Touhuan is right. My clansmen were too excited before, and we apologize for making a fool of ourselves in front of the Hokage."

The radicals behind the two wanted to say something, but seeing the kaleidoscope in Uchiha Touhuan's eyes, they wisely shut their mouths.

"I understand," Hiruzen Sarutobi said, seizing the opportunity to back down. "Even I would find it hard to remain calm if I saw my clansmen's bodies being treated like this. Fugaku, let the clansmen go back first. Once everything is investigated, I will give everyone a satisfactory answer."

"However, Hokage-sama, we do need an explanation now." Uchiha Touhuan suddenly spoke up again at this moment, and at the same time, he also took out the mission scroll that he had obtained this morning, "stamped with the Hokage's seal."

"Did you sign this scroll?" Uchiha Touhuan asked with a smile as he looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Douhuan, I did not issue any missions to you, and there is no record of them in the mission hall." Hiruzen Sarutobi just wanted to cut ties with Danzo as soon as possible, so he only glanced at the wooden stake that Danzo's corpse had turned into on the ground before speaking.

"So, this was all Elder Danzo's personal behavior, right?" Uchiha Touhuan said.

"Forgive me, Danzo," Hiruzen Sarutobi thought to himself, but he still had to cut ties.

"That's right," Hiruzen Sarutobi said.

"How despicable!" Uchiha Touhuan immediately became indignant. "The Hokage works tirelessly for the village every day, but some people do things that harm the village for their own selfish reasons! There are bad people around the Hokage."

As he said this, Uchiha Touhuan also glanced at Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu beside him.

"Dou-huan, I understand how you feel. Don't worry, I will definitely get to the bottom of this." Seeing Uchiha Dou-huan's loyal words, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't know what else to say for a moment, and could only repeatedly emphasize it.

"Lord Hokage, the Uchiha clan is willing to share your burden in this matter," Uchiha Touhuan said, bowing deeply.

"Douhuan, I understand your feelings..." Hiruzen Sarutobi wanted to continue with his official remarks, but as soon as he looked up, he saw the kaleidoscope slowly rotating in the eyes of Uchiha Douhuan in front of him.

"Lord Hokage, the Uchiha clan is willing to share your burdens."

Cold sweat dripped from Hiruzen Sarutobi's forehead. Only then did Hiruzen realize with shock that this was Uchiha Touhuan's true purpose.

As Hiruzen Sarutobi watched the slowly rotating Mangekyou Sharingan, he also thought of what Shisui had told him yesterday about the dangerous eye technique currently in the hands of Touhou Uchiha. Although, as he had told Shisui, directly controlling him with this eye technique would not have any impact on the situation in Konoha, it did not mean that he was willing to be controlled by this eye technique. His decision to let Danzo act was partly motivated by the desire to have Danzo help him navigate this dangerous situation.

It was only at this moment that Hiruzen Sarutobi truly realized that Touhuan Uchiha was more troublesome than any other Uchiha he had ever encountered.

Thinking of this, Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed and then said, "Since you're so willing, then I'll leave this matter to you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Mangekyou Sharingan in Uchiha Touhuan's eyes went out, and Uchiha Touhuan bowed slightly to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Yes, sir." After saying that, Uchiha Touhuan turned around and glanced at his clansmen behind him.

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi was about to leave with his men, Touken Uchiha's voice rang out again:

"The Uchiha clan salutes the Hokage!"

Standing at the forefront of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Touhuan flicked his right hand and placed it beside his head: "Loyalty!"

Seeing this, the other Uchiha clan members, including their leader Fugaku Uchiha, all followed suit: "Loyalty! Sincerity!"
