Extra 3 Then Danzo fell (Hatake Kakashi/Uchiha Itachi) Part 2

Faced with Kakashi Hatake's direct request, everyone's eyes fell on Danzo, whose face was so gloomy that it seemed like water was about to drip out of it.

Such attention was not unfamiliar to Danzo Shimura, as he had made decisions under the watchful eyes of the public countless times in the past.

Time and again, he has turned the tide under such scrutiny.

However, this time...

Danzo Shimura looked at these guys who used to follow his lead, and after a long time he slowly spoke.

"You're just going to let a junior do whatever he wants here?"

Let’s not talk about how that brat and the Uchiha kid discovered his cooperation with Orochimaru - anyway, Orochimaru was not careful enough and left a trail.

However, he hated these people's reactions more than the ungrateful Hatake Kakashi.

It was me who led you through countless dangers and allowed Konoha to continue to this day.

And you guys treat me like this?

The people being questioned by Danzo were silent at first, and then someone stood up.

"Master Danzo, please take it off and let them admit defeat sincerely."

"Yes, since you have proven your innocence, we can judge you as we please."

"Let that kid know how ridiculous his doubts are."

Even though people were saying things that were disparaging about Hatake, Kakashi and the other two.

But in Danzo Shimura's view, the moment they chose to speak was a betrayal to him.

If they hadn't had Yi Xin, if they hadn't felt that their position as the head of the root was unstable, how could they have dared to question themselves?

Shimura Danzo's expression became even uglier.

The one who dealt him the final blow came from his former teammate, the current Third Hokage.

"Danzo."

After just a short while, Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed to have aged several years.

He looked at his old teammate in front of him with dejection, and for a moment he felt as if he didn't know him anymore.

Or did he never know this "old friend" before him? Maybe those things he once believed in were just deliberately revealed to him?

Thinking of the countless times he had given in and compromised in the past, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally couldn't help but close his eyes.

He didn't want to think about the possibility.

But what was happening before my eyes could not help but be believed.

However, this unintentional action of his was very important to Danzo.

But it is a naked betrayal.

"Yuan Fei, you are old too."

Shimura Danzo took a deep breath.

"A problem of this magnitude can shake you to this extent."

Danzo Shimura slowly stood up.

"As expected, you are no longer fit to lead Konoha forward."

But Sarutobi Hiruzen was even sadder:

"To this extent... So the sacrifice of so many of your companions is only 'this extent' to you?"

"You dug out the eyes of an Uchiha who had a promising future and even the potential to become Hokage. Is that the extent of it?"

"Danzo, you are the one who should stop being stubborn."

"There's no way an Uchiha could become Hokage."

Danzo Shimura did not respond to Sarutobi Hiruzen's questioning.

Sarutobi Hiruzen said so much, but to him, the only important thing was 'Uchiha with the potential to become Hokage'.

"Have you forgotten the teacher's decision?"

"Sensei doesn't intend to kill all Uchiha!"

"And they didn't even ask us to attack the Sharingan!"

They also had Uchiha companions.

Not to mention that the Uchiha ninjas have made countless contributions to the village over the years.

Of course, what he could not tolerate even more was that Danzo actually used his teacher as a shield at this time.

Yes, the teacher has always been afraid of the Uchiha because of Uchiha Madara.

But he never intended to exclude or persecute the Uchiha.

Not even once.

"Danzo, please stop being stubborn."

Sarutobi Hiruzen completely lost the last bit of hope for him.

"Now, show me your eyes."

He issued an ultimatum - this was also his last respect to this former companion and current elder of Konoha.

Let him take off the bandage himself instead of them forcing it off.

In fact, there are many other people present who hold high positions of power in Konoha, but this is a showdown between the two pillars of Konoha.

This is not something they can interfere with.

"snort."

Danzo Shimura snorted coldly and shook his head slowly.

"Konoha needs saner leadership."

Shimura Danzo raised his hand fiercely. Everyone present was familiar with this gesture - it was obviously a call for his subordinates.

means of people.

The people who were originally paying attention to the battle between Konoha's pillars in the open and the plants in the dark almost immediately took action.

But it was too late.

Konoha has been peaceful for too long, which has caused these high-level officials to lose their due vigilance and motivation to act.

With such a slow reaction, it would be easy to subdue them——

Shimura Danzo thought grimly.

However……

One second, two seconds...

More than ten seconds, which were enough to decide life or death for a ninja, passed, but nothing happened.

The scene suddenly became awkward.

Especially Danzo Shimura who raised his hand, looked like a clown performing.

"If you're waiting for your men."

Uchiha Itachi at the door suddenly spoke.

"They have been dealt with."

They had practiced so many times at Miss Ugetsuki's place, how could they not have resolved Danzo's insidious ambush in advance?

You know, they were killed several times by Danzo's mastermind when they were practicing illusions.

Even the dumbest person knows what to do.

Although they didn't know what Danzo's plan was this time.

But with so many experiences, they were able to figure out some of the patterns in how Danzo arranged people.

"impossible!"

Shimura Danzo was furious.

He never told anyone else about his arrangements. Could there be a traitor?

Who! Who betrayed me?

Danzo Shimura started his conspiracy theory again.

He would rather believe that someone betrayed him than believe that these guys wiped out his roots with their own strength.

The root was the result of his hard work, how could it be destroyed by these little devils?

"Danzo, don't be stubborn!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen shouted.

"Ha, who is so stubborn?"

Shimura Danzo moved.

Although he could no longer count on the subordinates who came with him.

But his roots are still there.

As long as he leaves here, these people won't be able to do anything to him.

By then he will have the capital to make a comeback.

As Danzo Shimura thought so, he became even more ruthless.

——As long as he can get out, it doesn’t matter how many people die.

These people will eventually compromise themselves.

Not to mention, he has a trump card.

Feeling the Sharingan in his eye socket, he became more confident.

Danzo showed no intention of showing mercy and quickly fought his way through.

Along the way, no matter who tried to stop him, he would mercilessly attack them with extremely lethal moves.

In addition, the wind-attribute ninjutsu that he is good at already has many types of large-scale attacks.

When the opponent was hesitant and didn't want to kill, his deadly attacks naturally gained an overwhelming upper hand.

The gate was right in front of him, and with his last kick, Danzo Shimura, who had kicked away the Uchiha kid who was about to intercept him, finally touched the gate handle.

He will definitely repay all the humiliation he has suffered now!

He roughly pulled the door open, but what greeted him was not the empty space outside the door, but...

A huge eye suddenly appeared in front of him.

The magatama in the scarlet Sharingan kept spinning, and then countless black and red liquids poured out of it.

The liquid like blood and tears continued to fall under the force of gravity, and soon piled up, almost drowning people.

Danzo Shimura wanted to get rid of the black and red liquid, but he didn't know when he was already deeply trapped in it.

Then he saw his former teammates stand out.

The man who was once called Uchiha Mirror looked at him expressionlessly and opened his mouth:

"Give me back my life."

At the same time, there were more voices, and countless people walked out from the black and red tears of blood. They had different faces, but they all faced Shimura Danzo and opened their mouths:

"Give me back my life."

"Give me back my eyes."

"Get out! Get out!"

Danzo Shimura kept waving his arms to try to drive these people away.

However, more and more people emerged from the black and red tears of blood, engulfing Shimura Danzo like a wave.

Danzo Shimura felt the threat of death for the first time in a long time.

…Then the illusion was lifted.

Shimura Danzo, who was still waving his arms to drive away, really looked like a clown performing a ridiculous show in front of everyone.

"So what if I die!"

"Want revenge? You were played around by me when you were alive, what can you do to me after you die?"

“That’s enough!”

Sarutobi Hiruzen stopped this farce.

"How long do you want to embarrass yourself?"

Not only was it embarrassing, but he also spoke his true feelings.

Although people had guessed it a long time ago, hearing it with your own ears gave people a completely different feeling.

They once trusted him so much as the person in charge of the Root, and even thought that he and the Hokage were the two pillars supporting Konoha.

The betrayal of a former companion is often more damaging than the betrayal of an enemy from the beginning.

The eyes people looked at him with were no longer filled with confusion and questioning, but only hatred.

No one will stand on Danzo's side anymore.

He will only be nailed to the sinners' pillar of shame and be insulted for a long time.

Shimura Danzo also woke up.

Of course he understood that he had just fallen into an illusion.

He also understood more clearly that this was Uchiha Shisui's doing - apart from him, no other Uchiha had the ability to trap him in returning the book.

Even for just a second.

The exhausted old man looked disheveled and said unwillingly in a hoarse voice:

"I should have gone to the other village and killed you, and all of you Uchiha."

Uchiha Shisui didn't say anything.

Even if he had a little hope for Danzo, hoping that he would choose to treat Uchiha well after getting his eyes, it had disappeared on the way here.

Danzo Shimura must die.

Whether it's for the Uchiha or for the village.

He just walked up to Danzo Shimura and dug out his own eye in front of everyone.

The blood that flowed from his hands was like the tears and blood of those who died .

“…This is not over yet.”

As Shimura Danzo was being escorted away, the young man spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

Considering his past contributions, Danzo Shimura was not executed immediately.

But his subsequent life was more painful than death.

He was handed over to the custody of Uchiha Shisui.

For him, who had been jealous and ostracizing the Uchiha for half his life, this was an unacceptable humiliation.

And facing the man who had dug out his eyes, Uchiha Shisui did not physically abuse him.

It just makes him repeat the pain of the victims again and again in the world of illusion.

He must live until the atonement is complete.

then

Later, as a victim, and also to balance the turmoil in the village, Uchiha Shisui was really taken by the Third Hokage and began training as the substitute Hokage.

After all, it was one of Konoha's pillars who did evil, so it was impossible for there to be no turmoil.

Under such circumstances, Konoha naturally could not continue to treat Uchiha as before.

If the Uchiha had resisted before, the village would have been seriously damaged but still won. What the top leaders are worried about now is whether other ninja clans will choose to stand on the side of the Uchiha after this incident.

Whenever people think of this, they can't help but resent Danzo Shimura again.

——If it weren’t for him, they wouldn’t have to face such a life-and-death crisis.

Of course, Uchiha was unwilling to give up.

However, with the joint efforts of Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Shisui to suppress the rebellion, and the promise that Uchiha Shisui would be the next Hokage, Konoha still accepted the reconciliation request.

After Danzo was gone, naturally, the orders he had issued in the past were basically no longer valid.

At least Uzumaki Naruto is no longer considered the son of a demon fox.

Although due to so many years of publicity, it is still difficult for him to live the life of a normal child all of a sudden.

But under the care of Uchiha Fugaku and his wife, who were once good friends of the Fourth Generation, and Hatake Kakashi, a student of the Fourth Generation, he lived a peaceful life.

And those who once worked for the Root have basically found their destinations according to their own wishes.

Some went to the Anbu, while others chose to withdraw and live an ordinary life.

The Third Hokage provided them with many conveniences, which could be considered as... atonement for his past negligence.

Danzo's influence gradually faded.

However, until Uchiha Shisui began to travel around the world on behalf of Konoha, dealing with the fake 'Uchiha Madara' and trying every means to deal with Black Zetsu, he did not understand how all this began.

And how did Uchiha Itachi and Hatake Kakashi know all this?

After all, all of this is so hidden.

He didn't think that Danzo Shimura would openly display his ambitions, nor did he think that Lord Orochimaru would openly conceal the fact that he had conducted human experiments.

Not to mention that fake Uchiha Madara.

Since the other party chose to disguise himself as Uchiha Madara, he would definitely not tell you casually "I am fake", coupled with his elusive ability and fierce strength.

People who don't know Uchiha Madara's true power

, and would hardly suspect him.

In addition, there are people like Black Zetsu, who have lived for thousands of years without being discovered.

Unfortunately, no matter how he asked, the two men refused to give in.

Just promise again and again: "We will definitely make you the Hokage!"

To be honest, rather than saying "he wants to be Hokage", it would be more accurate to say that "making himself become Hokage" is the obsession of those two people.

An obsession that no one knows why it comes from and why it is so firm.

but……

never mind.

Uchiha Shisui jumped down from the tree.

The family and the village reconciled, and everyone lived well.

Since the result is good, the reason...isn't really that important.

Uchiha Shisui, who now looked like an adult man, smiled slightly and stretched.

"Okay, let's go back to the village and report back."

——What if by then, those two people want to tell me the reason?

The man's back walked farther and farther away until he disappeared.

As for the real reason why those two people have been unwilling to tell the truth: ...

"How can we check if Miss Ugetsuki doesn't exist in our world?"
