Konoha: We, the Uchiha, are ready to give up!

It's just a pity.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, however, had a slight frown on his brow.

He glanced at the three of them indifferently, then shook his head and sighed before lighting his pipe again.

He began to exhale smoke, leaving Danzo and the other two stunned.

"Hiruzen, is this not acceptable either?" Danzo couldn't help but ask.

"Hmm, no!" Hiruzen Sarutobi said quietly, "I just considered the Jonin meeting."

"But I still rejected it because it was unlikely to work."

“I just said, don’t underestimate Uchiha Jin, he’s different from the other Uchiha.”

"As I just told you, the banner the Uchiha are using this time is that the village has not been allocating funds to the police department for a long time."

"If a Jonin meeting is really held, will the village cover this expense?"

Konoha's F3 were dumbfounded once again.

It's numb and tingling.

Why is it still not working?

Is this Uchiha Jin really that difficult to deal with?

For a while.

The three elders all fell silent.

Upon seeing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

"This is a calculated strategy!"

“Uchiha Jin doesn’t hide anything at all, he just lays it out openly, not afraid at all that we might find out.”

"why?"

"Because of this situation, even if you knew about it in advance, there was no way to break it."

"Go back and think carefully about how we can break this deadlock."

"We still have time, so there's no need to rush."

"As for sending Uchiha Jin to the battlefield, let's deal with this matter first."

"It's getting late, everyone should go home."

Yes.

Judging from the posture of the three people in front of him, Hiruzen Sarutobi knew in his heart that his three friends were really useless.

We can't count on them to deal with Uchiha Jin.

So, think about this.

Naturally, he had no intention of wasting words with them, so after giving a brief explanation, he told them to leave.

Koharu and Homura exchanged a glance before turning and leaving.

Only Danzo.

He spoke coldly after the two had left.

"Hiruzen, I am different from you."

"You are known for your forbearance even when you suffer losses, which is why you are called a hero of forbearance!"

"I can't do it."

“The root group suffered huge losses today, and I will definitely retaliate.”

"I don't want you to stop me, goodbye!"

After finishing speaking.

Danzo turned and left.

Upon seeing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Danzo, I can't force you."

"But I still advise you to be careful. Uchiha Jin is no ordinary Uchiha."

"If you break the rules of the game and resort to assassination or other means, Uchiha Jin will definitely retaliate in kind."

"If you dare to assassinate the Uchiha, he will dare to assassinate Shimura."

“In that case, I won’t be able to stand up for you.”

"You, think it over!"

Yes.

Although he only met Uchiha Jin once and they only exchanged a few words.

But for a politician like him, seeing the big picture from small details is a basic skill, and he had a basic understanding of what kind of temperament Uchiha Jin was.

Danzo, needless to say.

He knew his old friend's temperament better than anyone else.

In addition, the roots suffered heavy losses tonight, and he didn't want the roots to be damaged too much.

But on the other side...

Danzo remained silent for a long time in response to Hiruzen Sarutobi's good intentions.

finally.

He didn't say a word, and simply turned and left.

Hey!

Seeing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed.

After shaking his head helplessly, knowing he couldn't persuade her, he sighed and gave up.

After all, the sky can't stop the rain, and a mother can't get married; even the Hokage can't do anything about it!

I took a drag of my cigarette and looked out the window at the night view.

Much later...

He bent down, picked up a pen, and wrote a letter. Then he summoned a member of the secret service.

"Black Crow, head to the Land of Grass."

"I entrust this message to Nara Shikaku and ask him to reply to me as soon as possible."

"Go."

Yes.

For tasks that require mental effort, he prefers to consult Nara Shikaku.

Although the Ino-Shika-Cho trio aren't exactly die-hard fans, these three clans are traditional Hokage factions.

Whoever becomes Hokage, to whom will they be loyal?

As long as he remains Hokage, Nara Shikaku is trustworthy.

……

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Upon returning to the Root Chamber, Danzo smashed the table.

Since becoming an elder of Konoha and the leader of Root, he has never suffered such a great loss.

For a while, Shinobu thinks more and more angry, and takes a step back and thinks more and more losses.

He couldn't stand it!

"Damn Uchiha, I will never let you get away with this."

"Somebody come!"

As Danzo spoke, a member of the Root clan knelt down on one knee.

"Lord Danzo!"

"Starting today, withdraw all Root members from the front lines." Danzo pondered for a moment before speaking in a chilling tone: "Monitor every Uchiha member under full surveillance, and assassinate them whenever the opportunity arises."

"I remember that Shisui, the genius ninja of the Uchiha clan, was still on a mission at the front lines in the Land of Grass, wasn't he?"

"Notify the front lines of the Land of Grass to all Root members to launch an assassination operation against him."

"Use any means necessary, spare no expense!"

"I want to die while I stop the water!"

"And, starting today."

"As long as they are from the Uchiha clan, regardless of whether they are ninjas or commoners."

"Kill them all!"
