Ebizo was also quite anxious, but as the commander-in-chief at the front, he was in charge of the overall strategy. So at this moment, he became more rational and did not impulsively leave the front.

If Konoha is indeed orchestrating this, they will definitely take further action soon, so I need to stay here.

......

On this day, the Second Shinobi World War reached its climax with a series of major events.

Chiyo left the Sunagakure front lines, found the Sunagakure forces that had suffered heavy casualties, and learned of the deaths of her son and daughter-in-law. Enraged, she vowed to make Konoha's White Fang pay with his life.

Alone, he followed the trail left by Sakumo Hatake when he fled.

Having just recovered his chakra to 60%, Sakumo Hatake encountered Chiyo and fled.

At this moment, Konoha finally received news of two battles.

There was no time to be shocked by the sacrifice of the Blood-Eyed Asura.

When Konoha's White Fang was being pursued by Chiyo, the Konoha leadership hurriedly ordered Tsunade to be dispatched to his rescue.

Sakumo Hatake fled all the way, but was injured by Chiyo's Chikamatsu Ten Guards and poisoned by Chiyo, and was on the verge of being trapped in a desperate situation.

His unwavering will allowed him to break through his limits in dire straits, suppress the toxins in his body, continue his escape, and even in a burst of power, cut down five of Chiyo's ten Chikamatsu guards to death.

Finally, Sakumo Hatake held on until Tsunade came to his rescue.

Together, they forced Chiyo to retreat.

The toxins took effect, and he finally collapsed.

Fortunately, Tsunade's medical skills were superb, and she treated him in time and took him to the front line of Konoha to recuperate.

With this, Konoha gained another Kage-level shinobi!

At the same time, the sacrifice of "Blood-Eyed Asura" also angered many Konoha ninjas on the front lines.

They didn't know the specific details; all they knew was that Konoha's Blood-Eyed Shura was besieged by more than ten Jonin from Sunagakure and unfortunately perished.

The actions of the Sand Village angered many Konoha ninjas, and the emotions of the Konoha frontline ninjas were more intense than ever before.

Coupled with the revelation from higher-ups that Uchiha Kiyoshi was "desperately detonating" the enemy's supply depot in order to inflict heavy damage on them, the Konoha ninjas were all like they had been injected with chicken blood, and their morale soared.

The same scene unfolded on the front lines of Sunagakure. This time, the fall of their three geniuses was also attributed to Konoha.

The two sides harbored mutual hatred, which brought the Second Shinobi World War to its climax.

Chapter 124 Unexpected Changes

Tsunade gave Sakumo Hatake some basic treatment to ensure his injuries wouldn't worsen, and then took him back to the Konoha front lines.

It's best to get treatment as soon as possible, otherwise it will be bad to have any long-term effects.

This time, Hatake Sakumo was truly seriously injured and on the verge of death.

Chiyo's toxins were also powerful; even Sakumo Hatake couldn't withstand them for long before being affected.

Poisoned and chased by Chiyo for over half an hour, it's already a miracle that he survived, let alone pushing his limits and further unleashing his physical potential. His body had long since given up.

Such a severe injury, if not treated properly, could leave serious long-term consequences.

Fortunately, Tsunade's medical skills were sufficient to treat such injuries.

Sakumo Hatake was older than the Sannin, but he trained in swordsmanship.

Swordsmanship requires accumulation.

Reaching the Kage level through swordsmanship is extremely difficult, which is why Sakumo Hatake fell behind the Sannin.

The three Sannin all admired this senior.

After all, the destructive power of swordsmanship is truly astonishing. Even before his breakthrough, White Fang's explosive power could severely injure a Kage-level expert. It's just that White Fang's condition couldn't sustain it for long.

Tsunade brought Sakumo Hatake back to the camp, and after an afternoon of treatment, she finally stabilized his injuries.

With proper care, there shouldn't be any lingering injuries.

Konoha will gain another complete top-tier fighter!

News of the major events at the front quickly reached Konoha.

The three geniuses of Sunagakure were killed by Konoha ninjas, and Konoha's White Fang broke through to the Kage level, adding another top-tier fighter to Konoha.

When the good news arrived, Konoha should have been overjoyed.

However, Konoha at this time showed no signs of celebration.

The common people of Konoha are unaware of this intelligence; they can only learn about the frontline situation from announcements released by higher-ups. This intelligence is usually positive and is released by the higher-ups to win over the people.

"Look how right my leader is! We've achieved a major victory on the front lines!"...

However, this time, the higher-ups did not release the information after receiving the intelligence.

It's not that I don't want to, it's that there's no time.

They are now entangled in something else.

In fact, this news may even make another matter more serious.

The other thing was the disappearance of the clan's ninja.

With the information provided by Uchiha Kiyoshi's clone, the various clans quickly found the corresponding clues and realized that the person who delivered the message was not lying.

Regardless of the purpose, as long as the intelligence is accurate, that's all that matters.

These families have been working together for years, and they have people infiltrating every aspect of Konoha. They completed the investigation in just half a day.

Then, led by the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, they expressed their dissatisfaction to the Hokage.

Danzo must be severely punished!

The roots must be dismantled!

The ninjas of our various clans must be released, and the cursed seals must be lifted!

Their attitude was very firm.

Unfortunately, this was met with strong opposition from the Third Hokage.

Just kidding, if the root is gone, who will help him carry out those things behind the scenes?

Although the roots are showing signs of deterioration, their function remains undeniable.

Seeing the Hokage's resolute attitude, the various clans were afraid that things would escalate too much and affect the battle on the front lines.

It's not that they're so worried about what's happening at the front, but if things continue to escalate and problems arise there, they'll definitely be the ones to take the blame.

Not worth the candle.

With the news that White Fang had reached the Kage level, the situation on the front lines became more stable, and they naturally had no more worries about the rear.

Following the news of Uchiha Kiyoshi's death, the Uchiha clan also joined the campaign against Danzo.

Although the reasons are different, the goal is the same.

At this time, the Uchiha clan also formed a united front with the clan leaders.

Danzo's actions this time were not flawless.

The root forces are short-handed and cannot act on their own. Although they can use others to do their dirty work, they cannot avoid leaving clues.

Uchiha Kiyoshi's transfer order was too abrupt; anyone who investigates can easily uncover the shady dealings involved.

Unless someone stops you.

However, the person in charge of personnel transfers at the front lines is Orochimaru, Uchiha Kiyoshi's teacher. It's one thing to issue this transfer order without his knowledge, but it's impossible to hide it from him during the subsequent investigation.

As a disciple of the Hokage, Orochimaru couldn't afford to turn against his teacher and force him to do anything to Danzo, but he could tell the Uchiha clan what had happened.

When Uchiha arrived at the Hokage's office, the clan heads were confronting the Hokage.

Uchiha Kai wasn't too surprised; the two sides had started arguing a few hours earlier, and he was aware of the situation.

"Lord Hokage!"

Danzo has done these things more than once or twice. If this continues, who will dare to do anything for the village?

Aren't you afraid someone will stab you in the back?

This time, Uchiha learned to reason from a moral standpoint.

Unfortunately, he encountered an unreasonable Hokage.

"Hey, calm down first, there must be some misunderstanding."

"How could there be a misunderstanding?"

Don't you know what mission those Konoha ninjas were on?

Is rescue still needed?

Moreover, it was as if Sunagakure knew where Kiyo was going, not only ambushing him with a large number of Sunagakure ninja, but also sending wave after wave of reinforcements later on.

Even if the order came from the Sunagakure front lines, it couldn't have been given so quickly.

The Third Hokage remained silent.

Uchiha no longer pressed him, but simply stood there, making his stance clear.

Looking at the group of clan leaders standing below, the Third Hokage frowned deeply, his face full of worry.

Danzo is a real jerk; he always gets me so much trouble.

They don't even remember their own attitude when Danzo did these things.

It can only be said that Danzo, the "King of Konoha's Blame," is half blamed on the Third Hokage.

Danzo, perhaps knowing he was in the wrong, did not come to the scene to argue.

Otherwise, even if the Hokage were to show favoritism, with so many clan leaders present, Danzo would have a real hard time backing down.

If it's difficult to back down, then I won't come.

Anyway, no one except him and the Hokage would know about the Root base.

You think you can come looking for me at the root?

Let's find the root first.
