"This...that really is the Sharingan, the eyes of the Uchiha clan. Why would it be in Elder Danzo's eyes?"

"Danzo, as an elder of the village, actually attacked a fellow villager. He is truly guilty of a heinous crime!"

"Lord Third Generation, what exactly is going on?"

"Is what that guy said true? Was Uchiha Shisui really poisoned by the Third Hokage and Danzo?"

"Could it be... that the Third Generation Lord we have always respected is actually a villain who harmed the village hero?"

“…”

At this moment, countless eyes were focused on Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Some of those who questioned it found it unbelievable, some didn't believe it at all, and some were only half-believing...

In short, everyone was eager to get a definitive answer from the third generation.

As for Danzo, they utterly loathed him.

Unexpectedly, the other party, being one of the high-ranking officials of Konoha, would actually target the village's heroes.

The way they looked at Danzo was like looking at a rat in a sewer—utterly disgusting!

In an instant, Danzo became a figure despised by everyone.

That's exactly what Rukawa wanted to do.

Killing Danzo outright would be too lenient on him!

Rukawa wanted to make him a rat in the street, someone everyone hated, and have him spend the rest of his life in endless suffering.

...

At the same time, the despicable acts of the Konoha leadership were laid bare before everyone's eyes.

Their faith in the Hokage inevitably declined!

'Damn it! Absolutely!'

Hiruzen Sarutobi gritted his teeth in hatred, never expecting that the darkness of Konoha's higher-ups would be so openly exposed to everyone.

"Don't make false accusations! How could I possibly harm a hero of Konoha..."

I was completely unaware of Uchiha Shisui's death! I was kept in the dark!

Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately retorted, then looked at Danzo with an incredulous expression, appearing utterly shocked.

"Danzo, you've really gone too far! I never imagined you were this kind of person!"

Uchiha Shisui was a hero who made great contributions to Konoha. How could you harm a hero like that?

"I really misjudged you! Alas!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Danzo with a face full of grief and helplessness, as if he had truly been foolish and had misjudged the person.

"Haha! I took down Uchiha Shisui all by myself."

Danzo laughed and admitted it.

Ok? !

This answer made Rukawa frown slightly.

Danzo, that guy, actually turned around and bit the Third Hokage?

Chapter 56 Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan! Genjutsu Manipulation!

He also wanted to use Danzo to shatter Hiruzen Sarutobi's glorious and righteous image.

The situation at this moment was clearly different from what Rukawa had anticipated.

"hey-hey!"

Danzo chuckled twice, seemingly having seen through Rukawa's plan. A mocking expression appeared on his face as he continued:

"As for why I killed Konoha's hero, it was because of Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan ability."

The very existence of this ability is itself a sin!

"What kind of ability is it that made Danzo do such a foolish thing!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

His brows were furrowed tightly, as if he truly didn't know that Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan abilities were only average.

'You really know how to act!'

Rukawa sneered inwardly.

"Heh! You'd never guess the power of his Mangekyou Sharingan! It's the ability to alter other people's memories."

Danzo's voice suddenly rose.

"In other words, if Uchiha Shisui wanted to, he could control anyone in Konoha. This kind of power is too evil!"

"No one can guarantee that Shisui won't use his abilities on his own villagers. This kind of power shouldn't exist in the ninja world!"

"Therefore, for the sake of Konoha, and to prevent Shisui from abusing this power, I decisively eliminated him, thus removing a major threat!"

As he spoke, Danzo's voice became more impassioned and passionate.

"In order to prevent the memories of Konoha ninjas from being arbitrarily altered, I am willing to bear the crime of killing Konoha heroes."

I will do anything! All for Konoha!!

Danzo's words sent chills down the spines of all the Konoha ninja.

I was shocked to learn that Uchiha Shisui possessed such terrifying abilities.

Arbitrarily altering other people's memories to indirectly control them is terrifying!

Even if Shisui won't use this ability on them, who can guarantee that?

The ability to stop the flow of water is like having a knife always hanging over one's head.

Nobody wants their memories to be altered.

At that moment, they suddenly felt that Danzo's actions might be the right thing to do.

Such terrifying power should never have appeared in the ninja world.

Danzo's words alone instantly changed the opinions of all the Konoha ninjas towards him.

After all, that's just human nature!

Human nature is inherently selfish. When Danzo's actions align with their interests, they will endorse them regardless of whether the actions themselves are right or wrong.

"Oh! Since you say it's for Konoha, Shisui's Sharingan shouldn't exist, so why did you transplant his eyes onto yourself?"

Rukawa calmly countered with a question.

"Of course, it's to protect Konoha! To strengthen Konoha's fighting power."

So you see, I only transplanted one Sharingan, so its power is greatly reduced, and it can only alter memories for a short period of time.

Danzo calmly explained, as if he had been preparing for this all along.

Anyway, now that Shisui is dead, no one can verify the truth or falsehood of what he said.

It couldn't be simpler to come up with any plausible reason.

"Besides, this is Konoha's business. What does it have to do with you, an outsider?! Don't meddle just because you're strong!"

Danzo looked at Rukawa with a smug expression.

The third generation then said with a helpless expression:

"Danzo, although your initial intention was good, your actions were too extreme. Killing Uchiha Shisui without authorization was really wrong!"

You should pay with your life for your mistakes.

"However, considering your diligent efforts for Konoha over the years..."

"You will be stripped of your position as leader of Root, removed from your post as an elder of Konoha, and imprisoned in the Konoha jail for fifteen years!"

"At the same time, Uchiha Shisui was granted the honorary status of a hero of Konoha, and his name was engraved in a special area of ​​the memorial tablet, alongside the Hokage of all generations."

"In this way, justice has been served for the Uchiha! I wonder if you are satisfied with this outcome?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Rukawa with a sincere expression.

"I have no objection!"

Danzo answered immediately, then looked at Rukawa with a cold smile.

"You self-righteous bastard, are you satisfied now?!"

"Of course, if you're still angry, you can kill me directly! I'm not someone who's afraid of death."

Rukawa completely ignored Hiruzen Sarutobi's nonsense and instead looked indifferently at Danzo.

"Ha! You bastard, you think you're so smug, trying to provoke me?"

"If I kill you now, you disgusting thing can become a hero of Konoha, leaving a lasting legacy and being revered by all!"

"Too bad, you're overthinking it. I won't kill you until all your dirty secrets are exposed!"

"I'll make you live like a rat in a ditch, a creature despised by everyone!"

Then, Rukawa looked around at the Konoha ninja and said loudly:

"Do you think that bastard Danzo only killed one Konoha ninja, Uchiha Shisui?"

"Wrong! Utterly wrong! Danzo's shamelessness and treachery are beyond your imagination."

"Whether they were ordinary villagers of Konoha, civilian ninjas, or ninja clan members, they were all captured by Danzo to be used for human experiments."

"Damn it! I would never conduct human experiments, much less capture ninjas from my own village for human experiments."

"If you have no evidence, don't just spout nonsense and slander me!"

Danzo retorted loudly and excitedly, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

"Sir, please don't make such jokes! This is not funny at all!"

I absolutely refuse to believe that Danzo would be so depraved as to use fellow village ninjas for human experiments!

"Furthermore, I have clearly stipulated that human experimentation is absolutely forbidden in Konoha!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said solemnly.

"I remember you just promised that Danzo wouldn't lay a hand on any ninja from his own village. How come you're so forgetful!"

Rukawa offered a casual reminder.

“This time is different. Human experimentation is absolutely forbidden in Konoha. Danzo wouldn’t dare to do it, and he wouldn’t. I trust him.”

Hiruzen Sarutobi had a confident look on his face.

The Konoha ninjas around them didn't really believe it either.

After all, human experimentation is extremely inhumane.

Even if such experiments were to be conducted, it would be during wartime, using ninjas from other ninja villages for experimentation.

We live in peacetime now, and human experimentation has long been stopped.

Using fellow village ninjas for experiments is a taboo subject, punishable by immediate execution.

The only one who disobeyed orders and still dared to break the taboo was Orochimaru, one of the Legendary Sannin.

And for this reason, Orochimaru became a rogue ninja.

Orochimaru dared to break the taboo mainly because he himself was somewhat abnormal.

Danzo, as a mature and prudent elder of Konoha who had served as a high-ranking official in Konoha for decades, would never have done something so absurd.

"It seems you don't believe me! Then let's go and see for ourselves!"

Rukawa sneered, picked up Danzo with one hand, and swaggered toward the area where the wounded were gathered.

There were many wounded and medical ninjas there.

What Rukawa is looking for is the Root ninja among the wounded.

No one dared to stop them on their way.
