Chapter 438 Aftermath and Sasuke's Heavy Realization
"What?! Lord Danzo was killed during secret negotiations while trying to secure peace for the village?!"
"Do you know who did it? Damn it. Although I didn't quite agree with Lord Danzo and Root's extreme methods, he did it for Konoha after all."
"Who can say for sure about such things? Rumors say that Lord Danzo was killed while trying to negotiate peace with Kirigakure, but that doesn't rule out the possibility that Kumogakure or other villages were behind it..."
"Indeed, there are many enemies who do not want Konoha to end the war. Even the Sand Village and Iwa Village, who have formed an alliance, cannot necessarily be trusted. After all, the alliance treaty is just a compromise and peace made out of helplessness."
"It's a pity about Lord Danzo. Even if he had sacrificed himself for the village, it would most likely not have affected the village's continued peace talks. This is the insignificance of an individual in the face of war."
"That's true, but Lord Danzo's sacrifice was ultimately for peace."
"Let's go. I heard that the Third Hokage and the others are holding a memorial service for Lord Danzo at the memorial site. Let's go take a look..."
The following afternoon, many ninjas in the Konoha streets during the Third Shinobi World War II era were filled with emotion and discussion upon learning of Danzo's death.
And among them, there are some surprising ninjas.
such as:
"Clan leader, it's great that Danzo has been killed! He was a representative of the Konoha hawks and had always been eyeing our Uchiha clan."
"Yes, yes, this should make things a little easier for us Uchiha in the future. After all, the Third Hokage has already abdicated, and the Fourth Hokage's foundation is not stable, so he certainly won't be able to boss us around."
"Hahahaha... I can't help but laugh when I think about Danzo being killed. That despicable guy has always been hostile to us. This time, the village drove us Uchiha to the edge of the corner, and that was his doing."
Upon hearing the news at the Uchiha clan's ancestral home, many Uchiha Jonin burst into laughter, almost ready to hold a celebratory banquet.
In the realm of political maneuvering, nothing is more gratifying than the sudden death of a political opponent, and the Uchiha clan is no exception!
Compared to the excitement of his clansmen, Fugaku Uchiha merely nodded slightly before his expression turned serious. "I heard that the Fourth Hokage allowed Orochimaru to take over Root and become the new captain of the Anbu."
"Everyone should know the impact of this change on the situation in Konoha! In short, our newly appointed Fourth Hokage is no ordinary person!!"
"Don't you guys think Danzo's death was a bit too sudden? And Orochimaru, that guy, he's no pushover!"
"To appoint Orochimaru, one of the Legendary Sannin, as the commander of the Anbu? This does seem rather suspicious!" Instantly, the Uchiha members present sat up in shock, their expressions changing drastically.
Regardless of the truth, they are now very certain of one thing: the world in Konoha is about to change!
This change may benefit the Uchiha clan, but it could also make their situation more difficult.
"Hehe, actually, everyone doesn't need to worry too much. The three of them are more anxious than us right now. It turns out that the new Hokage they put forward is not a puppet to be manipulated." Seeing that everyone was a little worried, Fugaku suddenly smiled meaningfully.
Instantly, the Uchiha members' eyes lit up upon hearing this, their faces filled with mockery, looking on with anticipation for a good show!
Indeed, their living conditions here are much better than before, at least Danzo is no longer watching them and the Uchiha are no longer aggressive.
But the Third Hokage and his ilk are now facing a direct challenge in the struggle for power.
"It seems I must now meet this unassuming Fourth Hokage. As long as he doesn't go too far, the Uchiha clan will be his strong supporters." Seeing that his clansmen understood, Fugaku then slowly expressed his opinion.
He believed that the Fourth Hokage would not reject the Uchiha's overtures, which would also be an opportunity for the Uchiha and Konoha's leadership to reconcile once again.
He would naturally not give up the opportunity to peacefully resolve the rift between the clan and the village.
Otherwise, we can only wait for Sasuke to return and use his absolute strength to make the village accept the Uchiha's leadership.
“Yes, that’s right. This may be our Uchiha’s chance to enter the village’s power center, clan leader.”
Seeing Fugaku's reaction, the Uchiha immediately understood and responded enthusiastically.
Whether they are hawks or doves, they are now united in their stance and waiting to see what happens.
Other clans that made the same choice as the Uchiha included the Hyuga clan and the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, who were close to the Fourth Hokage, Minato…
Having experienced war, they're not stupid. Danzo got into trouble right after the Fourth Hokage took over? Plus, Orochimaru becoming the commander of the Anbu and taking over Root, isn't this a crucial moment to choose sides?
As for how to choose? Heh, anyone with eyes can see that the Fourth Hokage Minato has already grown strong enough, so what is there to hesitate about...
Meanwhile, while the situation in Konoha was in turmoil, Sasuke was also entering a high-intensity training phase.
Under Madara Uchiha's guidance, Sasuke's weaknesses in Sharingan genjutsu and Uchiha forbidden techniques were quickly overcome, and he was completely transformed in just half a month.
"Right now, what you lack is the transplantation of Hashirama cells to complete your chakra nature. Only when you have all your chakra natures can you truly master Yin-Yang Release and the Six Paths Technique..."
"Furthermore, after successfully transplanting Hashirama's cells, you will also master the power of Wood Release. Even if your Mangekyou Sharingan is not Eternal, it will be able to quickly restore its power, preventing blindness due to overuse of the eye technique."
Staring into Sasuke's eyes, Madara Uchiha began to subtly lay the groundwork for his hidden scheme.
"Hashirama cells, are they really that powerful?" Sasuke feigned curiosity, but inwardly he thought the most crucial moment had finally arrived.
His senior brother had told him long ago that Madara Uchiha couldn't possibly trust him unconditionally without doing anything; he would inevitably do something to control his body.
Now it seems, this might be it!
“I’ve said it before, only by combining the power of the Senju and Uchiha can we obtain the myriad forms of the universe. The power of Hashirama Senju is not just as simple as Wood Release for us Uchiha…” Madara Uchiha turned his gaze to the artificial Hashirama body missing its arm and sighed.
Then, taking a deep breath and revealing a resolute expression, he said, "After you successfully receive my power through the transplant, I will entrust all my plans and future to you, Sasuke!"
"Including the location of the Rinnegan, the name of Uchiha Madara, and my dream..."
[Rinnegan.]
A glint flashed in Sasuke's eyes as he realized he couldn't continue acting recklessly and had to make a difficult decision.
"Okay, I accept your transplant suggestion. But there's one thing: I don't want any other changes to my body."
"For example: a first-generation face appears on the chest..."
"That's easy." Madara was overjoyed to hear Sasuke agree. This request was not difficult to fulfill as long as the proportion of transplanted cells was reduced.
Perfect, a weaker Sasuke is easier to control and puts his mind at ease!
"Let's begin now, Sasuke."
