Ninja World Live Stream: Was the Sixth Hokage really that powerful?

"That's precisely why we're doing this. If nothing is found, it will actually prove the Uchiha clan's innocence."

Hiruzen Sarutobi was helpless, but there was nothing he could do to stop it.

The scene shifts to the shadows. "This is it." Kakashi Hatake leads the newly arrived Itachi Uchiha into the monitoring room.

"It's not just here, Lord Danzo's ANBU are also monitoring us. So, are you going to tell your clansmen?" Two of the ANBU looked at Uchiha Itachi.

"What should I do?" Itachi ignored his provocation and calmly asked about his work.

......

"The secret service also has this type of work. Although it's not assassination, it's still work that can't be done in the light of day."

Kakashi, who was sitting in a chair checking the duty roster, spoke up.

"A mission is a mission."

"Besides, you're monitoring your own companions and family, so it's even more so. I can help you switch shifts."

Itachi: "No need, and besides..."

Kakashi: "And?"

"The Uchiha clan members also sensed the village's suspicion towards them."

"24-hour secret surveillance?" Someone gasped, that's a bit scary.

"But if it really was done by the Uchiha, then it was for the sake of everyone in Konoha."

"What if he hadn't done it?"

"Who knows."

The ninjas were talking among themselves.

Sasuke felt a chill run through his body. He had never known that his clan's every move was under the surveillance of Konoha.

Moreover, he was completely unaware of the fact that the Uchiha clan had been ostracized by the villagers of Konoha, as mentioned in the video.

He recalled the increasingly tense atmosphere between his father and Itachi when he was a child. Was it because of these things?

He suddenly felt as if he were being submerged in water, a sense of suffocation and helplessness enveloping him.

He is too weak.

So weak that they don't even have the right to understand the whole picture.

(Tobirama Senju: What's going on? Why are there two Anbu members?)

Tobirama keenly noticed that one of the ANBU members mentioned Lord Danzo's ANBU.

(Shimura Danzo: Tobirama-sensei, this is all for Konoha. What Sarutobi can't do, I'll leave to my Anbu.)

(Tobirama Senju: The Anbu are directly under the Hokage. The village only needs one Hokage, so naturally it only needs one Anbu! Monkey, I thought you would change your weak habits after becoming Hokage, but I didn't expect...)

Not only was Danzo given control of the secret branch, but even in high-level meetings, Hiruzen, the Hokage, seemed to have no say at all.

It's as if they've been sidelined.

Hiruzen was too kind, something he already knew, but this kindness would turn into weakness when he became Hokage.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's face turned pale, and his fingers holding the pipe trembled.

It felt terrible to be rejected by Tobirama-sensei to his face.

He looked as if he had aged ten years, sighing and smoking incessantly, while Danzo beside him also looked grave.

His eyes were full of resentment, yet he dared not refute it.

(Hiruzen Sarutobi: I'm sorry, Tobirama-sensei.)

(Shimura Danzo: I'm sorry, Tobirama-sensei.)

(Koharu: I'm sorry, Tobirama-sensei.)

(Mitokado Homura: I'm sorry, Tobirama-sensei.)

Although Tobirama didn't mention their names, he was clearly disappointed in them as well.

Tobirama Senju didn't say anything. Oh well, he was just in a hurry.

Speaking here is something the entire ninja world can see; it doesn't seem right to disrespect my student like this.

However, he had a very poor impression of the elderly Danzo, and Tobirama could clearly sense that Danzo had changed.

Although Danzo was a bit stubborn and obsessive when he was young, his gaze was not so gloomy.

He looks exactly like another Madara Uchiha.

And the monkey, he was somewhat disappointed.

"Heh heh, the Third Hokage is about to lose all face." The Tsuchikage, Onoki, watched the conversation on the sky with great schadenfreude.

The same applies to the Kage of other ninja villages.

The video continues to play.

"Get out of my way, police force!"

"Just like the Nine-Tails did back then, hide to the side."

On the streets of Konoha Village, two drunkards were fighting. When the Uchiha police force came to stop them, they were scolded.

Because the Uchiha clan did not fight on the front lines during the Nine-Tails' attack, everyone thought they were cowards.

There has been a lot of gossip about it behind their backs.

The enraged Uchiha clan members took the two away, but this action drew some criticism.

"It's just two drunkards fighting, a little mediation should suffice." There's no need to be so strict as to lock them up in jail.

Ultimately, it was just the Uchiha clan showing off their power, or so the villagers thought.

Chapter 8 Tobirama Senju: You, Danzo Shimura, you actually used me as a shield?!

"It was clearly that gloomy guy who wouldn't let everyone go to the front lines! Why are you saying that?" Sasuke clenched his fists, his impression of that gloomy Danzo plummeting to rock bottom.

"Sasuke!" Kakashi stopped him from uttering those harsh words.

Regardless of what happens in the future, Shimura Danzo is still an elder of Konoha at least for now.

He gestured to the Third Hokage, indicating that he wanted to take Naruto and Sasuke away from the scene.

The clone he had released told him that the screen could be seen even from a great distance.

If there is an obstruction, you can use chakra to see the content displayed on the screen in your mind.

After he told the Third Hokage this conclusion, the Hokage and several high-ranking officials left one after another.

Suddenly, a large number of ninjas disappeared from in front of the Hokage Rock, leaving only a lot of civilians, which was quite gossipy.

Normally, we wouldn't have the chance to know about these ninjas; we could only rely on hearsay. Now, we actually have such direct information.

They definitely can't let this go!

......

The scene shows the familiar Konoha F4 high-level meeting.

Koharu Tsunetsu: "There are increasing complaints from the public about the police force's excessive use of force."

The Third Generation Leader: "People's suspicion of the military is growing day by day."

Danzo Shimura: "The Uchiha are starting to show off their power."

The Third Hokage sighed: "No, this should be called rebellion. It is the result of the Nine-Tails incident six years ago. Moreover, the Uchiha clan's practice of keeping the Nine-Tails away from the Uchiha clan has made the Uchiha clan feel the suspicion from Konoha."

"This is how barriers are created."

"The Uchiha's isolation policy has been a fundamental policy of Konoha since the Second Hokage's time. Why bring it up now?" Shimura Danzo said grimly, using the Second Hokage as a shield.

(Tobirama Senju: ???)

What the hell? When did he ever say that isolating the Uchiha clan was a basic policy of Konoha?

Shimura Danzo suddenly felt a pang of guilt, as if the gazes of the surrounding ninjas were piercing through his body, making him feel like he was being pricked by needles.

Damn it!!

He never imagined that these words would be released and witnessed by Tobirama-sensei.

Although he believed that Tobirama wouldn't blame him, after all, he had done it all for Konoha, and Tobirama genuinely disliked the Uchiha clan.

(Uchiha Izuna: I knew you white-haired bastard had ulterior motives. Madara was just too naive to believe Senju Hashirama's words and form an alliance with the Senju.)

(Uchiha Tajima: Madara, you actually got persuaded by Senju Hashirama to form an alliance. And to make matters worse, you ended up having your clan wiped out.)

It seems that the annihilation of the Uchiha clan is inextricably linked to the higher-ups in Konoha!

It would be better if we just died in the battles of the Warring States period!

Even if we shed our last drop of blood, we are still a race of honor!

This wouldn't have happened if we didn't form an alliance!

Tajima is a traditional and obsessive ninja who cannot let go of his hatred or the honor of the Uchiha clan.

Therefore, I really cannot accept the outcome of the alliance.

Not only did they ally with the despicable Senju, but they were also wiped out by Senju's disciples.

He had been a clan leader for over a decade, and he could see right through those old foxes, especially Shimura Danzo, who was up to something.

(Uchiha Madara: Now that things have come to this, what's the point of saying anything more?)

He longed for peace so much that Hashirama's sincerity touched him, nothing more.

After the village was built, he regretted it and wanted to leave, but the Uchiha clan members refused to go with him.

Having come this far, no one can blame anyone else.

The Uchiha clan members in the Pure Land were also feeling very bad. They had been isolated since the village was founded, which was quite tragic.

(Uchiha Higanbana: Tajima-sama, everyone is exhausted. War is tiresome, and we long for peace. But Konoha isn't the peace we want. We should have followed Madara-sama in the first place.)

He initially wanted to leave as a staunch follower of Lord Madara, but he had other ties to his clan, and those people did not want to leave.
