Chapter 275 Danzo's Invitation

Half an hour later, the Root leader Danzo and a team of advisors arrived at the Hokage building.

After sitting down, Danzo noticed that the Third Hokage looked very strange, frowned and asked: "Sarutobi, is there something important that you called us here for this time?"

The Third Hokage nodded and said straight to the point: "Shisui came over just now and reported a very important matter about Uchiha."

"Someone within the Uchiha is planning a coup and seizing power by force to become Hokage."

Facing this heavy news, Utatane Koharu and Mitomon En said gloomily: "Is the information true? Do the Uchiha really want to launch a coup? Have they really gone this far?"

Danzo snorted coldly, then said:

"When Tobirama-sensei was alive, he said that the Uchiha clan was born evil. They were not satisfied with controlling the security forces and even wanted to launch a coup to become the Hokage."

"Monkey, we can't delay any longer. We must strike hard at the Uchiha."

Hearing this, Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En fell into deep thought. It was not that they had not thought about launching a heavy attack on the Uchiha, but did they really have the strength to defeat the security forces?
If the entire Konoha Village is taken into account, it is more than enough to deal with the Uchiha Guard Force.

But the problem is that Uchiha is not one of the four major ninja villages, but the ninja clan in the village. With the rest of the ninja clan standing idly by, they may not be able to deal with Uchiha with just the direct strength of a few of them.

Besides, whether to send out Anbu ninjas, Root ninjas, or ninjas from the Konoha Defense Force is also a controversial topic.

If they lose their subordinates, they will have to rely on other ninja clans in the future.

Seeing that several people fell silent, the Third Hokage dropped another bombshell: "In addition to someone within the Uchiha trying to launch a coup, Shisui also shared the secret of the Mangekyō with me."

"Shisui's Mangekyō Kotoamatsukami can modify the will of a ninja. He intends to use Kotoamatsukami to modify Uchiha Fugaku's will and prevent the Uchiha coup."

After hearing about Kotoamatsukami's abilities, the duo of advisors took a deep breath.

How could there be such a heaven-defying ninjutsu in the ninja world that could silently change the will of a ninja? And such a pupil technique happened to appear on an Uchiha.

To put it bluntly, if Shisui attacks the high-level officials, the destructive power will be no less than that of Uchiha Madara back then.

Danzo's expression became even more uncertain. After thinking for a moment, he suggested, "I suggest taking action against Uchiha Shisui. He is more dangerous than any other Uchiha."

"And I suspect that the murderer of the Nine-Tails Rebellion was Uchiha Shisui! He was able to quietly change other people's opinions, and he was able to manipulate the Nine-Tails back then."

Danzo's words stunned the duo of advisors, and they all looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Danzo's words seem to be shifting the blame to Shisui, putting the blame on Shisui for the Nine-Tails Rebellion, but if you think about it carefully, there is some truth to it.

Although no one knows who the masked man who attacked Konoha is.

But Shisui does have the Mangekyō Sharingan, and can control the Nine-Tails and even other ninjas.

Being stared at by everyone, the Third Hokage spoke:
"The Nine-Tails Rebellion could not have been done by Shisui. Don't forget that he is the grandson of Uchiha Kagami and a ninja of our Senju clan."

"This time he took the risk of being suspected by us to report the news that the Uchiha were about to launch a coup, and he also told us all the information about Kotoamatsukami. If we doubt him, we are doubting the Will of Fire itself."

After the Will of Fire was mentioned, the duo of advisors immediately stopped talking.

They didn't really feel that much of a crisis about whether the Uchiha launched a coup. Even if the Uchiha launched a coup, they would target Danzo and Hiruzen, and their positions as advisory elders would not be revoked. They could only worry that the scale of the civil strife would be too large and cause interference from other ninja villages.

Danzo cursed the Third Hokage in his heart, and then said, "Sarutobi Hiruzen, your tolerance will only encourage the arrogance of the Uchiha. One day you will regret your decision."

After saying that, Danzo left the meeting room without looking back.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stared at Danzo's back and sneered in his heart. Uchiha wanted to seize power and become Hokage, don't you, Danzo, want to be Hokage?
It’s just that Danzo, who has been tainted by darkness for many years, can no longer become Hokage and poses no threat.

After Danzo's figure disappeared, Sarutobi Hiruzen said to the remaining two people:

"Xiaochun, Yan, let's continue discussing the Uchiha issue. Do you think that if the Uchiha were given a seat as an advisory elder, would they be satisfied?"

After leaving the Hokage Building, Danzo walked alone in the shadows.

Although he had just parted ways with Sarutobi Hiruzen on bad terms, he also obtained some important information about Shisui.

First, Shisui wanted to ease the conflict between the Uchiha and the village, and was even willing to disclose information about the dojutsu.

Second, Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan records a pupil technique called Kotoamatsukami, which can control ninjas silently. This is exactly the pupil technique he needs to seize power in the future.

This kind of dangerous eye technique must not exist in Uchiha.

He also didn't believe that the inherently evil Uchiha clan could live in peace with the village. That group of Uchiha would definitely not be satisfied with their current status and would definitely launch a coup to seize power.

After thinking about this, Danzo looked towards the location of the Uchiha clan and fell into deep thought.

He already had a plan in mind on how to obtain the Mangekyō Sharingan.

……

In the forest of death.

Shisui looked at Bai Ye who was fishing in front of him and asked anxiously:

"Master Bai Ye, why did you let me reveal the secret of Kotoamatsukami to the Third Hokage? Once this eye technique is exposed, the Third Hokage will be afraid."

Bai Ye caught a big fish and looked at Shisui who had the highest IQ.

After abandoning the so-called will of fire, Shisui actually became a lot smarter. He even knew that after exposing the secret of Kotoamatsukami, he would be feared by the Hokage.

This is not easy. It shows that Shisui has gradually evolved into a normal person.

After putting the big fish into the fish cage, Bai Ye said to Zhishui: "The secret will not be revealed. After two minutes, you will know why."

After saying that, Bai Ye disappeared with the fish.

Shisui stayed where he was and was stunned for a moment. Then he sensed movement coming from a distance. A Root Ninja wearing an animal mask appeared in front of Shisui.

The Root Ninja looked at Shisui and said in a cold tone: "This is a letter from Lord Danzo. He asked you to go to the Root base to discuss the future of the Uchiha."
