Now the Fire Nation and Konoha were in a panic. Although Konoha was powerful, it was still difficult for it to resist the joint siege of the three ninja villages, not to mention the demigod Hanzo, who was a strategic-level strongman.
However, what made Sarutobi Hiruzen even more upset was the exposure of the detailed process of the war in the Land of Whirlpools. He was not only under pressure from the three major ninja villages, but also from within Konoha.
The first-generation lady had already asked someone to invite her over for a talk.
He even suppressed the pain of his family's elite being wiped out and his son possibly dying in battle.
The problems within the village must be suppressed, otherwise everything will be over.
"Is this what you do?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the old friend opposite him with great annoyance and disappointment. I asked you to help me solve my problems, not to cause me trouble.
Moreover, you also revealed the secret of your Sharingan transplant, and the Uchiha clan leader has already sent someone to deliver a visiting card.
The Uchiha elites are all outside. If they were still in the village, they would probably gather together to attack.
It is a big taboo to try to seize the bloodline power in the village.
Danzo Shimura had a cold face and said nothing. This time the war in the Land of Whirlpools was indeed not well organized. The biggest omission was that no one expected that the Uzumaki clan would actually defect to the Hidden Cloud Village and hide some of their members.
Now that part of the Uzumaki clan has already taken a boat to the Hidden Cloud Village, and the situation is really hard to say.
Another thing is that the elite troops he led were completely wiped out, which was enough to cause serious damage to the vitality of their two clans and their roots.
Mito Kado En took off his glasses and pinched his nose bridge, saying, "Huruzen, it's useless to get angry now. We can only deny what happened to the Uzumaki clan. It was the Kumogakure who slandered us. Given Mito-sama's temperament and the current situation, he will probably not hold us accountable.
The most difficult thing now is the Sharingan issue, which must be resolved as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the Uchiha ninjas on the front lines find out, they will probably abandon everything and come back to fight."
Sarutobi Hiruzen glared at Shimura Danzo across from him and said coldly, "You'd better prepare a backup plan."
This matter is a taboo. After all, Danzo is a high-ranking official in the village and also his confidant. In the eyes of the village's ninjas, the two of them are one.
If Danzo does such a thing now, he will inevitably be implicated.
If he is not careful and causes dissatisfaction among all the ninja clans, he might be forced to abdicate as the Hokage.
Shimura Danzo was silent for a moment, then he removed the sealing bandage on his eyes to reveal a strange eye, and said, "What I have is not the Sharingan, but the Blood Dragon Eye of the Land of Lightning."
He naturally knew the many taboos of transplanting the Sharingan, and it would be very troublesome once it was exposed, so he had made preparations long ago.
He asked someone to go to the Land of Lightning and get a blood dragon eye. Although it was not as good as the Sharingan, it was still a pretty good eye, enough to explain the sealing bandage on his eyes.
"The Blood Pond Clan being held by the Uchiha clan?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen had some impression of this. The events of the Blood Pond Clan happened very early, earlier than the first generation teacher and his companions.
It seems that he offended the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning because of something, and was ordered to be exiled to a place and guarded by the ninjas of the Uchiha clan.
Even the Uchiha clan has sent people there for rotation in recent years. This is also a special permission from the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning, and the Hidden Cloud Village has no right to interfere.
As far as he knew, the Blood Dragon Eye of the Blood Pond Clan was an illusion bloodline that could compete with the Uchiha Sharingan, and it possessed all kinds of strange secret techniques.
"It looks a bit like that. That kind of chakra is too cold and ominous."
Utane Koharu looked into Shimura Danzo's eyes and nodded in approval.
With this eye, they can deny the words of the Hidden Cloud Village, and the rest is just bickering, which they are very good at. They can completely define this matter as a deliberate slander by the Hidden Cloud Village, which was deliberately planned for the sake of war and to disrupt the hearts of the Uchiha ninjas on the front line.
So despicable!
"Follow me to the Senju clan's land first."
Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and now he could only deny it and insist that it was the slander of those ninja villages and the conspiracy planned by the Hidden Cloud Village.
Then we went to the Uchiha clan's territory. Although we couldn't completely clear the suspicion, there was at least room for easing the situation.
Only after these two things are settled can he do other things, such as redeeming his son.
After all, he is their own son, and the Hidden Cloud Village is unlikely to kill him, so there is a chance to talk.
Danzo Shimura didn't say much, but stood up and followed.
After a while, the two arrived at the Senju clan's territory, and under many unfriendly gazes, they came to the residence of the first Hokage's wife.
Uzumaki Mito didn't say anything and just looked at the two of them quietly, but this put a lot of pressure on them and they couldn't even say the words they had prepared.
Only by facing the first generation Nine-Tails Jinchuriki can one understand how terrifying he is, and that he is not much less terrifying than the first generation teacher.
After watching like this for a full hour, Uzumaki Mito finally spoke with a sad and tired look on his face.
"The Uzumaki clan has defected to the Hidden Cloud Village and is no longer an ally of Konoha. Remove all the Uzumaki icons from the village."
She has lived from the Warring States Period to the present, and has witnessed the end of the Warring States Period and the beginning of the Ninja Village Period. She has seen so many things.
She could see through the little tricks of Sarutobi Hiruzen and his companions, and didn't want to listen to their excuses.
After all, he owed the Uzumaki clan. If he hadn't worked for Hashirama, become the first generation of Tailed Beast Jinchuriki for Konoha, and even participated in the First Ninja World War, the Uzumaki clan wouldn't have been targeted by so many people.
When her second uncle came to scold her, she had guessed that this day would come, but she didn't expect that the actual killers would be students of Hashirama and Tobirama.
The only good thing was that the Uzumaki clan moved to the Hidden Cloud Village and were not exterminated, which made her feel a little better.
However, the friendship between the Uzumaki clan and Konoha has come to an end. Some things are better off being cut off.
Chapter 57: Naruto Killing
Uzumaki Mito's words made the two men's hearts tremble. They knew that this person must have understood it, but fortunately he did not intend to pursue it.
"We'll take care of it, just get some rest."
He quickly agreed and then left in disgrace.
Although it didn't go as they expected, the result was still good, at least it was stable.
"Hashirama, is the ninja village you founded really correct?"
In the room, Uzumaki Mito murmured to himself, feeling confused.
Hashirama's original intention was to build a village to protect the children, prevent them from being attacked and killed by hostile forces, and allow future generations to grow up happily.
But the result was not as they had imagined. After Hashirama's death, an even more terrible war broke out, affecting the entire ninja world. The foundation of the war was the ninja village system.
Now that the Second Ninja World War was about to begin, she had an ominous premonition.
The Uzumaki clan became the first victim of this Ninja World War and were almost wiped out.
Which one will be the next one?
This was not what she wanted. Looking back now, it seemed that Uchiha Madara's idea of the only ninja village might have been better.
There can be no friendship or peaceful coexistence between countries and between ninja villages.
Not to mention the confusion of Uzumaki Mito, on the other side, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo came to the Uchiha clan's territory, and under the gaze of the same pair of eyes full of hatred and anger, they were led to the home of the Uchiha clan leader.
The Uchiha clan leader, Uchiha Reiyang, ignored Sarutobi Hiruzen's words, but opened his Sharingan to look at the blood dragon eye revealed by Shimura Danzo.
"The pupil power of that eye is conflicting with your chakra. It's probably because the transplant was too recent and they haven't had time to adjust yet."
Uchiha Lieyang suddenly said something that made Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was making up stories, freeze, and Shimura Danzo's expression also became more fierce.
Was it seen out?
Eye transplantation is not that simple, especially for foreigners, as it takes a long time to adjust.
Although he transplanted this blood dragon eye, it was just a simple transplant and it has not yet adapted to the tree. He can't even see anything now.
"Chief Lieyang..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to say something, but Uchiha Reiyang raised his hand to stop him.
"Since he didn't transplant the Sharingan, then return the Sharingan to our Uchiha, including those seized by the Senju family during the Warring States Period. The bloodline of any ninja clan cannot be leaked, let alone our Uchiha Sharingan."
Uchiha Lieyang actually didn't take this matter very seriously. In the past, many members of the clan had gone missing while on missions, and no one knew whether they were alive or dead.
Especially since the previous clan leader Uchiha Madara displayed his invincible power, he has attracted countless people to covet him.
However, the Uchiha's Sharingan was not so easy to deal with, and after that period of time, all the major forces quieted down.
At the same time, he did not want to fall out with Sarutobi Hiruzen and others because of this matter, as that would only benefit the Senju clan, and he also needed Sarutobi Hiruzen and others to weaken the Senju clan.
That is the biggest obstacle for the Uchiha clan to become Hokage. With the Senju clan around, it is impossible for the Uchiha clan to have a Hokage.
Letting Sarutobi Hiruzen and his men fight against the Senju clan is in the best interests of the Uchiha clan now and in the future.
However, we cannot let them off easily. This is also an opportunity to take back the Sharingan in their hands.
Not to mention getting all of it back, at least get most of it back.
"Danzo!"
Seeing that Uchiha Reiyang had said this, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Shimura Danzo.
Danzo took over Tobirama's research project on the Sharingan, and there have been no significant results, so there is nothing wrong with giving it away.
"I'll have someone send it to you later."
With a gloomy face, Danzo Shimura finally compromised.
Of course, I can't give away all the Sharingan left by Tobirama teacher and those I have secretly seized over the years, especially the three-magatama Sharingan, I have to keep some for further research.
Also, those Sharingans that were scrapped during the research process can be handed in to make up the numbers and be recycled.
"I won't see you off."
Uchiha Lieyang picked up the teacup and took a sip, signaling the two that they could leave.
This attitude of expelling guests made Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others secretly angry, but they didn't say much and got up and left.
After the two of them walked out of the Uchiha clan's territory, they both breathed a sigh of relief, finally stabilizing themselves.
"Danzo, you need to go over to the River Country front as soon as possible. Sun and Moon alone can't hold it."
Sarutobi Hiruzen mentioned the River Country front. The ninjas of their two clans were the vanguards in resisting there, but the elite of their clan secretly went to the Whirlpool Country to plan. Now they were killed by the Cloud Ninja and the Uzumaki clan. The high-level combat power on the front line there was seriously lacking, and it would be breached if they were not careful.
Even though his younger brother Sarutobi Hizuki was there to take charge, it was still not enough, far from enough.
Moreover, the summoning contract on my brother's side should also be sealed. Without the assistance of the summoned beast, his strength will be greatly weakened.
It would be troublesome if the Sand Village's ninja army really broke through the defense line and attacked the heart of the Land of Fire, especially the clan members there. Once all of them were killed, both clans would be finished, and the situation in the village would also be in trouble.
"I need assistance from the Ino, Deer and Chou clans. I will bring Orochimaru with me. His summoning beasts are very suitable for large-scale wars."
Shimura Danzo said in a cold voice that it was because of his carelessness that the elite members of both their clans and the Root were all killed, and he could not shirk this responsibility.
But he couldn't resist the high-level combat power of the Sand Village by himself, and he needed support.
In addition, he also needs the help of Orochimaru. His strength is only secondary. The focus is on Orochimaru's own talent.
"I'll go talk to them!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded. He would certainly not let his old friend go through it all alone. The key point was that he couldn't hold on.
The only ones who can be persuaded now are the Pig, Deer and Butterfly tribes, with whom they have been friends for generations.
"I'm leaving tomorrow."
After looking at the location of the broken arm, Shimura Danzo said something and turned to leave. He needed to get an arm as soon as possible, otherwise even the seal would become a problem.
"Raikage! Whirlpool!"
After the old friend left, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes became cold and fierce, his face looked more ferocious, and his heart was filled with murderous intent.
The loss this time was too great. Not only were all the elite members of the family wiped out, but his own son's life or death was also uncertain. At the same time, the monkey clan's spiritual contract was also sealed.
This must have been the work of the Uzumaki clan. With the hatred of this clan being exterminated, there is a high probability that they will not be able to get the spiritual contract back. Without the Ape Demon's own combat power would be reduced by 30%.
Now we can only ask Jiraiya to go to Myoboku Mountain to check it out, hoping that it can recover as soon as possible.
The spiritual world is an independent and different world. The three holy places occupy the core of the spiritual world. Myoboku Mountain and Ryuchi Cave are mortal enemies and there are many conflicts. The monkey tribe also lives in the spiritual world and they are interconnected.
Let the toads of Myoboku Mountain go over and contact the monkey clan, perhaps they can re-establish the spiritual contract.
"Pig, Deer, Butterfly!"
It took him a while to calm down. Sarutobi Hiruzen looked in the direction of the Ino, Deer, and Chou tribes. He must get help from the three tribes, otherwise the defense line of River Country would not be able to be held.
Chapter 58 The friendship boat capsized
Not to mention Sarutobi Hiruzen who was heading to the Ino-Shika-Cho tribe's territory, on the other side, Danzo Shimura who returned to the Root base met a person who had been invited before.
