Naruto: We Uchiha only want to make money.

Chapter 103 The Enraged Crowd, Legendary Resilient King Shen Yue!

"What did you say?" Kakashi's exposed Sharingan suddenly turned icy cold. He raised his head, staring directly at Danzo, his voice devoid of any emotion, yet carrying a chilling hostility: "Lord Danzo, Captain Shingetsu deliberately acted as bait to lure away the Fourth Raikage, who had come personally, in order to create an opportunity for us to destroy the supply point. He fought for the mission, for his comrades, until the very end. When we retreated, he was still fiercely fighting the Fourth Raikage, and now his fate is unknown. Why do you conclude that he has defected?"

"Kakashi is right!" Hiashi Hyuga stepped forward, his white eyes calm yet resolute. "We can testify to Captain Shingetsu's actions. If he hadn't drawn the Raikage away, we would never have been able to complete the mission. Danzo, we didn't see the so-called informants and safe routes you provided. Instead, we encountered a well-prepared battlefield and the Fourth Raikage's personal interception. What do you say about that?"

Although Sarutobi Asuma had previously been unconvinced by Shingetsu, he couldn't help but sneer, "Lord Danzo, the mission information you provided seems to be quite different from the actual situation. We almost all failed because of it!"

"Yes, you must give us an explanation!" Kurenai Yuhi, Might Guy, and Hizashi Hyuga all glared angrily at him.

They weren't stupid; combining the various anomalies before and after the mission, they had already guessed it.

This mission is most likely a deliberate attempt by Danzo to give them false information in order to use them as a tool to kill someone.

"You actually dare to attack me for his sake?!" Danzo's pupils shrank, and he was very surprised.

He never expected that Kakashi and the others would dare to attack him for the sake of Shingetsu.

Is this still the cautious Kakashi he knows?

And why are Hiashi Hyuga and the others also speaking up for Light God?

Little did he know.

The fact that Shingetsu lured away the Fourth Raikage all by himself has already won over Kakashi and the others.

That's why he dared to confront Danzo for the sake of Kamizuki.

Even Danzo had doubts.

If he speaks ill of Shingetsu again, Kakashi and the others will dare to attack him directly.

"Do you intend to betray Konoha?" Two Root members behind Danzo immediately stepped forward to protect him, their eyes wary.

The two sides were locked in a standoff, and the atmosphere was tense and ready to clash.

"What are you doing?!"

Just then.

A slightly tired voice came from behind.

The tent flap was lifted by a hand.

A ninja, his clothes soaking wet, tattered, and dripping with water, staggered in.

It was Uchiha Shingetsu!

"It's you? How is this possible? You're still alive?" Danzo was shocked to see that Shingetsu had returned safely.

This evil Uchiha brat is right in front of me.

He's still alive!

"Captain, you're back! That's great!" Kakashi and the others were overjoyed to see Shingetsu return.

Shingetsu nodded to Kakashi and the others in return.

At the same time, the Sharingan slowly swept across the dimly lit tent, finally settling on Danzo, whose face instantly froze.

"Oh, Lord Danzo, are you disappointed to see I'm still alive?" Shingetsu stared directly at Danzo, his eyes like a bottomless abyss.

"How could you possibly escape from the Fourth Raikage?" Danzo stared in astonishment at Shingetsu, who appeared unharmed before him.

Is there no one in the ninja world capable of killing Shingetsu?

"A mere Fourth Raikage, and you still can't kill him!"

Shenyue replied coldly, but upon closer inspection, she still looked quite disheveled.

His wet hair was still dripping, and his tattered clothes clung to his body, revealing several freshly healed scars. He certainly looked like he had survived a fierce battle.

"Hmph, looks like you're badly injured but still holding on. Fine, as long as you're here, there'll always be a chance to kill you!" Danzo glanced at Shingetsu with a deep look in his eyes, his killing intent growing stronger.

The atmosphere inside the tent instantly became even heavier.

The main reason was that he hadn't expected that even someone as strong as the Fourth Raikage couldn't defeat Shingetsu.

However, he was, after all, a master of power politics and intrigue, and extremely cunning.

The shock lasted only a moment. He immediately suppressed the killing intent and panic in his heart, and regained his usual dignity: "Captain Shenyue, what makes you say that? I am naturally pleased that you have returned safely. You are an elite of Konoha, and the captain of this mission. As a frontline advisor, how could I not want my subordinates to be safe?"

He paused, then continued, "It was no easy feat for you to escape from the Fourth Raikage; you must have faced unimaginable danger. Right now, what you need most is to rest and recover your injuries and chakra. Everything else can be discussed later. The situation on the front lines is tense; any personal grievances or misunderstandings should be considered in the context of the bigger picture."

"Are you trying to pressure us with the 'big picture' tactic again?"

Upon hearing this, Kakashi, Asuma, and the others frowned even more deeply.

They sensed that Danzo was trying to change the subject, and were about to question him again about the false information and the use of the Fourth Raikage to kill someone.

However, Shen Yue preemptively raised her hand to stop her teammates behind her from speaking.

He gave Danzo a deep look: "Lord Danzo is right. I was too excited. I just escaped death, and my emotions are a bit unstable. Everything should indeed be done with the greater good in mind. Well then, let's go back and rest."

"Kakashi, let's go!"

After saying that, he stopped looking at Danzo's feigned calm face, turned around and gestured to Kakashi and the others, and then walked out of the tent first.

"Is that all?" Kakashi, Hiashi Hyuga, and the others still had countless questions and anger in their hearts, but seeing that their captain, Shingetsu, had spoken, they could only suppress their anger, give Danzo a cold glance, and then follow Shingetsu away.

"This brat is so hard to kill. No, his growth rate is getting more and more astonishing, and he's still holding back. He's definitely plotting something bad. It seems I have to kill him on the front lines this time!" Danzo's eyes were filled with gloom as he watched the departing figures of the Shingetsu Squad.

Even the veins on his hand holding the cane were bulging.

The departure of Shen Yue did not make him feel relieved; on the contrary, it made his uneasy premonition even stronger.

According to his understanding.

This Uchiha brat will not be let off so easily!

What exactly is he planning?

……

the other side.

The Shin-Moon squad returned to their assigned individual camp tents.

As soon as they entered the tent and confirmed there were no suspicious listening barriers or spies around, Asuma couldn't hold back any longer and asked urgently in a low voice, "Kamizuki! Why did you let that old bastard Danzo go so easily? He clearly gave us false information on purpose, trying to use the Fourth Raikage to get rid of us! Kakashi and the Hiashi clan chief questioned him on the spot; we could have forced him to give an explanation!"

Might Guy clenched his fists, his face filled with indignation: "That's right! Captain, you lured away such a terrifying enemy all by yourself for us, and you almost didn't make it back! Danzo clearly framed his comrades, and this kind of behavior is unforgivable! My youthful passion won't allow me to let this go!"

Kurenai looked at Shingetsu with concern: "Shingetsu, are you too badly injured, or do you have any other concerns? We all support you now."
