Chapter 55 Zhuge Liang First, Then Like a Pig (Ch 55)

Inside the Hokage building, the atmosphere was so oppressive that it made one breathless.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had returned here, was now sitting in front of his desk with a dark face and empty eyes, as if he was lost in endless contemplation. The portraits of the previous Hokage on the wall watched all this quietly.

Mitokado En and Utane Koharu stood quietly in the corner of the Hokage’s office.

They looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen’s solemn expression and swallowed back the words that were on the tip of their tongue.

The two looked at each other, sighed helplessly, and could only stand quietly by the side, staring blankly with Sarutobi Hiruzen.

They knew that the current situation had become extremely difficult, and with their abilities, they could not think of any effective solution.

Destroy the Uchiha?

Who will destroy it?

How to destroy it?

What if other villages attack after we destroy it?

With the strength that Uchiha has shown now, plus the relatively independent funds and territory of Uchiha, they have no way to restrict the development of Uchiha.

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at the two old friends in front of him who were silent.

You know what’s good about it, but now you’re in trouble and you don’t say a word!

A wise man before things happen, but a pig afterwards!

When did they become like this?

Much worse than Danzo, at least Danzo dares to say and do!

If Danzo were still alive, he would definitely find a way to deal with the Uchiha!

His thoughts drifted back to the past, and he recalled every moment he spent with Danzo.

Once upon a time, they worked together for the prosperity of Konoha Village, fought side by side, and faced all kinds of difficulties and obstacles together.

But now, he is the only one left!

Only after losing Danzo did you realize how good Danzo was!

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had been in a daze for a long time, thought of Uchiha Itachi and Kakashi who could not hide, and the Ino, Shika and Chou clans who had not shown up.

At this critical moment, their disappearance made Sarutobi Hiruzen feel extremely disappointed and heartbroken, as if he had been betrayed by the people he trusted the most.

A friend in need is a friend indeed!

Kakashi and Uchiha Itachi are no longer trustworthy!

He was no longer young, the traces of time had already appeared on his face, and his body and energy were no longer as good as before. Facing the restless Uchiha, he felt powerless.

Konoha Village is now in a precarious situation, and if it is not careful, it may fall into an irreparable situation. But at this critical moment, who can stand up and support the entire Konoha?

After thinking for a long time, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally called an Anbu.

“Go and get Jiraiya back, the village needs him!”

————————

The night in Konoha Village is quiet and deep, and the moonlight shines in every corner of the village.

Kakashi’s home is hidden under the moonlight. The lights in the house are dim, and there is a faint atmosphere of loneliness.

Kakashi was now slumped on the tatami, with empty wine bottles beside him. His eyes were blurry, and he looked completely different from the calm and composed copy ninja he once was.

Kakashi didn’t drink alcohol before, but since his defense was broken by Danzo’s words, Kakashi has learned to use alcohol to numb himself.

Today Kakashi stood in the dark and watched a good show!

The culprit who once forced his father Hatake Sakumo to death, Danzo, finally got the retribution he deserved and died at the hands of the Uchiha clan.

Danzo’s pretending to be dead and his final fight to the death completely destroyed Danzo’s image and turned him into a joke in everyone’s eyes.

However, when Kakashi saw Danzo fall, he did not feel the slightest bit of joy in his heart.

Danzo, who forced his father to death, is dead, but what about the father who was forced to death by such a ridiculous character?

He poured glass after glass of wine into his mouth. The spicy liquid flowed down his throat and burned his internal organs, but it could never dispel the pain and confusion in his heart.

I don’t even have the heart to read the newly bought “Young Ah Bing”!

Kakashi stared at the ceiling with empty eyes, his thoughts drifting far away. He thought of the days when he and his companions carried out missions together, and the scenes of fighting side by side kept flashing in his mind.

Obito and Rin both died while performing ninja missions.

Is this the fate of ninjas?

Live only to die!

—————————

Itachi was also confused!

Uchiha Itachi stood alone on the roof of his house, looking towards the Hokage Building in the distance.

The evening breeze blew, ruffling his long black hair, but it could not calm the turmoil in his heart.

He went against his father Uchiha Fugaku’s instructions and followed him out secretly.

When he saw the Uchiha clan confronting the Hokage forces, his heart suddenly hung in his throat.

I almost couldn’t help but jump out to stop this war that was about to break out!

Fortunately, the crisis was temporarily resolved and the two sides did not actually fight!

He also noticed Danzo’s poor acting skills.

Especially the strange scene of Danzo’s resurrection made him instantly recognize that it was Uchiha’s forbidden technique – Izanami.

And Danzo was able to use it more than a dozen times in a row, which means that he had at least a dozen Sharingan transplanted into his body.

Thinking of this, Itachi felt a surge of anger and sadness in his heart!

Brother Shisui’s eyes were dug out by Danzo!

First, Danzo secretly transplanted Uchiha’s Sharingan, and then the Uchiha clan forced Danzo to death in public. This action undoubtedly showed a tough attitude to the Hokage faction.

Now the conflict between the Uchiha and Konoha’s top leaders has completely intensified and there is no room for easing.

How should the Uchiha get along with Konoha next?

“Brother Shisui, I really don’t know what to do?”

Itachi murmured to himself, his voice full of helplessness and confusion.

He looked at the night sky, as if hoping to find the answer in the vast starry sky.

In Iwakage Village, the atmosphere was as simple and calm as ever. Oonoki sat in his office, handling various affairs of the village.

Just then, Huang Tu ran in hurriedly with irrepressible excitement on his face.

Lord Tsuchikage!” Huang Tu’s voice trembled slightly with excitement: “Konoha is in turmoil, Danzo is dead!”

Oonoki had a serious expression on his face, but when he heard this, the pen in his hand stopped instantly, and then he immediately took the information scroll handed over by the Anbu ninja.

“Hahaha, good thing he died!” He laughed loudly, and couldn’t help but stand up and slammed his hands on the table. “I’ve disliked this old guy Danzo for a long time!”

Danzo will do anything to achieve his goals. He is cruel to his own people and even crueler to others. Several other ninja villages also feel deeply threatened.

Now hearing the news of Danzo’s death, Ōnoki felt that the anger in his heart had finally been relieved!

“That’s really great news!” Ohnoki continued to laugh, his emotions growing more and more excited.

Oonoki was too happy and accidentally lost his balance, falling backwards.

“Oh, my old waist!”

Ohnoki couldn’t help but scream out. The previous injury had sprained his waist. At this moment, a sharp pain came from his waist, and he frowned in pain.

Huang Tu hurried over to support his father and slowly sat him down.

The smile on Ohnoki’s face had not yet faded away before it was distorted by the sudden pain.

As he rubbed his waist, he thought about the situation after the civil strife in Konoha.

Once Danzo dies, Konoha will inevitably experience some turmoil and power reorganization. This may be a good time for Iwakage Village to readjust its strategy and seek development opportunities.

We have to find a way to provoke an internal fight between the Uchiha and Konoha. It would be great if we could get them to fight!

It’s not just the Iwakage Village. Except for the autistic Mist Village, the spies planted in Konoha by the other ninja villages have all passed on the latest news from Konoha!

The breeze created by the flapping of butterfly wings caused waves in the entire ninja world!

But Ling Yue didn’t know or care about these.

He just knew.

Now that Danzo has been defeated, it’s Uchiha Itachi’s turn next!
