Seeing Fugaku's startled reaction, Shingetsu had no choice but to patiently explain.
"Clan leader, don't be anxious. I didn't say I wanted to start a war with him. I just said I wanted to go and watch the show. This show was created by Danzo himself."
"Qingshui, Tieshu, explain this to the clan leader!" Shenyue instructed Qingshui and Tieshu behind her.
Qingshui and Tieshu, who were behind him, quickly told Fugaku in detail about how they had been ambushed and killed by Gen's elite warriors on their way back.
When talking about the thrilling moments, the two also showed off their injuries and how they fought together in the fog to defeat Blue Dog.
"What?! Danzo actually dared to send people to ambush you outside the village? And he even sent Mad Bull and Blue Dog, who are quite famous in Root?!" Hearing Aozumi and Tetsuki's account, Fugaku's face turned ashen with anger. He crushed the pen he was writing with, splattering wood chips and ink all over the table.
"Outrageous! Utterly outrageous! Attacking fellow village ninjas returning from a mission—does he even respect the village's rules?!"
"Am I, Uchiha, among them?"
"That's definitely not the case. He still wants my Sharingan!" Shingetsu shrugged.
"Damn Danzo! Shisui, you tell me!" Then, Fugaku looked at the silent Shisui, his eyes filled with questioning and a hint of suppressed anger.
Shisui nodded solemnly, stepped forward, and whispered to Danzo about being summoned by him, Danzo's hostility toward the Uchiha, and his hints of special attention toward Shingetsu.
He concluded by adding, "I was worried that Danzo might harm Shingetsu, so I rushed to the capital overnight to warn him. Now it seems he dared to openly attack my Uchiha!"
"hateful!"
Now, Fugaku's pent-up resentment, worry, and anger regarding the safety of his clan were completely ignited. He slammed his fist on the table and stood up abruptly: "This is outrageous! Do they really think the Uchiha clan is made of clay?! Today they dared to send men to ambush Kamizuki, will they dare to attack all of us tomorrow?!"
"Clan Chief Fugaku!" Shisui wanted to persuade Fugaku to calm down and apply pressure in other ways, but when he saw Fugaku's eyes, which were faintly red with anger, and the expression on Shingetsu's face next to him that said "this is how it should be," he swallowed back the words he was about to say.
Perhaps the Uchiha clan needs to show some toughness.
"Gather the men!" Fugaku shouted sternly at the door. "All on-duty police officers, assemble immediately! Target: Root Organization headquarters! If they don't give me an explanation today, I'll give them one!"
The order was quickly relayed. Soon, dozens of Uchiha ninjas in police uniforms lined up in front of the office building. Although they didn't know the specifics of what had happened, upon hearing that it was "to go and cause trouble for Danzo," many of them showed no fear, but rather excitement and eagerness.
"Go looking for trouble with Danzo? We should have done that a long time ago!"
"That old schemer, he's always lurking in the shadows, plotting against us!"
"The clan leader finally stood up for himself!"
"Forget the reason, just do it!"
They whispered among themselves, each one eager to get started.
For a long time, the Uchiha clan's situation in Konoha has become increasingly difficult. They have been hampered and suppressed by Danzo and his forces at every turn, and the work of the police force has also been frequently obstructed. They have long harbored resentment.
Now that the clan chief is personally leading the team to confront Danzo, although it sounds somewhat impulsive, it gives them a long-lost sense of satisfaction.
Standing at the front of the line, Fugaku was deeply moved as he looked at the anger and fighting spirit that his clansmen had been suppressing for so long and finally had a chance to unleash.
"Was my prioritization of the greater good really a mistake?" He suddenly realized that he might have suppressed the emotions of his people for too long in order to maintain stability and protect the overall situation.
Does this constant forbearance and concession only embolden Danzo and his ilk to act even more recklessly?
Perhaps, while Shen Yue's "tit-for-tat" and "proactive" style is radical, it is also a way to break the deadlock?
At least, it will allow the Uchiha's voice to be heard, letting the enemy know that the Uchiha are not pushovers!
"Let's go!" Without further hesitation, Fugaku waved his hand and took the lead in heading towards the Root organization headquarters.
"Go, keep up!" Shingetsu, Shisui, Aokizuki, and Tetsuki followed closely behind, with dozens of elite Uchiha ninjas forming a formidable force as they headed straight for the darkest corner of Konoha.
the other side.
At the highest point of Konoha, on the tower that monitors the Uchiha clan.
"Captain, something bad has happened! The entire Uchiha clan has been mobilized, and judging by the direction, it seems to be the headquarters of Root!" An ANBU ninja holding binoculars and responsible for surveillance immediately reported to Itachi.
"What?" Itachi tensed up upon hearing this.
He would pick up the binoculars one moment and walk in front of the monitor screen the next.
Observe carefully.
The more he looked, the more serious his expression became, and even his tear troughs deepened.
"Father, and Shisui-nii, and Shingetsu, they've all gone. No, I must inform the Third Hokage about this immediately!"
Itachi felt that this matter was probably beyond his ability to handle and that he had to immediately inform the Third Hokage.
He immediately pushed open the door.
Her body moved like a swallow soaring into the forest, transforming into a purple streak that swept across the sky, heading towards the Third Hokage's office.
……
Meanwhile, deep underground in Konoha, in the most central secret chamber of the Root organization's headquarters, a place perpetually shrouded in darkness and oppressive cold.
Mad Bull and Blue Dog were kneeling on one knee, reporting the mission progress to Danzo, who was sitting in the shadows.
Their eyes were vacant, but deep within them flashed a resolute determination.
The two recounted their experiences, which had been altered by illusion magic, in their own voices.
They relentlessly pursued the Shingetsu Squad, and on their return journey, they seized the opportunity to launch an attack, wiping out the entire Shingetsu Squad.
After they finished speaking, Danzo remained leaning on his cane, his mask-like face expressionless.
"That concludes the entire report," Blue Dog concluded in a flat, monotone tone.
"Very good, you've done a good job on your mission. Bring me the Sharingan of the God Moon. The evil Uchiha, their power is perfect for protecting Konoha." Danzo was very satisfied with their report.
Their vigilance gradually relaxed.
After all, this is the headquarters of the Root.
Before him stood his most loyal subordinates.
"We've preserved the Sharingan very well!"
Mad Bull and Blue Dog, as they spoke, seemed about to pull out the container that held their Sharingan from their bodies.
However, before he could finish speaking, something unexpected happened!
The mad bull and blue dog, who were kneeling on the ground, suddenly sprang up at the same time without warning!
The raging bull's massive body slammed into Danzo like a cannonball, its fan-like hand grabbing directly at Danzo's throat!
