Chapter 135: Danzo's Purpose
"Third-Kage!"
"Old fogey!"
The exclamation sounded.
Everyone realized the scene here, and everyone was shocked.
What happened today is really unpredictable.
First, Uchiha Itachi attacked the village, saying that it was revenge for the hatred of genocide back then. When it comes to this matter, everyone just felt weirded out.
'Is it true that the truth back then?'
'If it is exactly what Uchiha Itachi said, how cruel is Konoha's high level to make such a decision to exterminate their own kind?'
'Using Sasuke Uchiha as a condition to force Uchiha Itachi to kill his own family by himself, wouldn't normal people be crazy long ago?'
'Do they really have to choose either the fish dies or the net splits?*'
[*TL note: y s wng p lit. either the fish dies, or the net splits; a life and death struggle (idiom).]
'Uchiha Itachi is good?'
For the village, for the clan's reputation, for the younger brother... the fact that Uchiha Itachi agreed to this condition amazed everyone.
The problem is that others have sacrificed so much, and the village couldn't keep its promise. They didn't protect Uchiha Sasuke well, causing him to have an accident.
How could Uchiha Itachi accept this fact?
It's really hard not to be crazy.
It is also because of the truth expressed by Uchiha Itachi and his behavior before; they cannot find any loopholes. Everything is reasonable. So even if everyone who knows the truth is very sad about this and very unwilling to accept the village to have such cruelty, it also drove them to believe Uchiha Itachi.
In many people's hearts, a sense of sadness arose involuntarily.
'Back then. The village was able able to treat the Uchiha clan in this way... Does that mean that the village might treat us and our own clans like this one day?'
When the time comes, how should they choose? Can any promise given by the village still be believed?
The huge amount of information simply opened their minds on the spot.
However, for the sake of the village, everyone still forced themselves to accept this fact. They just found an appropriate reason and convinced themselves that the village had made such a decision in the past. Therefore there must be difficulties, and it must be spelled by circumstances.
After some self-consolation, they set off again.
Fight for the village again!
Fight Uchiha Itachi together!
Although many colleagues were injured or died during the confrontation, things went very smoothly.
Worthy of the son of Fourth-Hokage, a tiger father will not beget a dog son!*
[*TL note: hf w qunz a great/powerful father will not raise a worthless son (typically said as a compliment).]
Also, in the most difficult moment of the village, Naruto came forward and rescued everyone.
However, the next scene made everyone dumbfounded.
'Have we made a mistake all this time?'
'Why is the good-looking Konoha New Generation hero, Uzumaki Naruto, hunting for Third-Hokage?'
What made them even more speechless is that the kind-hearted Third-Hokage even staged a stab at the Konoha hero who had just saved the village but was beaten by Naruto on the spot, and his lie was debunked on the spot.
Everyone's impression of Third-Kage's 'good Hokage' collapsed instantly.
'kind and good Hokage?'
'What about Will of Fire?'
'You just slandered someone who has just stopped the huge disaster for Konoha, and you also want to kill him on the spot?'
'Not to mention Uchiha Cla 's exterminating the clan incident.'
This made everyone even more convinced of Uchiha Itachi's statement. Everyone can't find a reason to refute it.
But now that the misunderstanding has been resolved and the matter is over, it's going to be okay, right?
However, they didn't expect Naruto to be so determined that his hatred for Third-Kage is so great that he must kill him!
This made everyone, who was already disappointed with Sarutobi Hiruzen, have to secretly wonder whether the Messy Old Man in front of them had done something intolerable to Naruto, which led to Naruto's unending seek of death of him?
But it's okay...
At the moment when everyone felt the most confused, the saviors were here!
The two Konoha's Sannin, Jiraiya, and Tsunade, are back!
With the appearance of Jiraya and Tsunade, the two sides will not be able to conflict, and everyone does not need to worry about who they are going to help.
But, unexpectedly, Naruto still refused to give up.
Okay?
That being the case Had to hit the duck on the shelf.*
[*TL note: as a metaphor for compelling to do something that the ability cannot do.]
However, something unexpected happened again...
Naruto hasn't started yet, and the Third-Kage was killed.
And the one who did it was Shimura Danzo, one of the Konoha rulers...
At this time, everyone just wants to die!
'Is there no end to this?!'
'Is there gonna be another drama to be staged?'
'How big of a heart does one needs to accept the series of strange things that happened today?!'
Of course, not only are they shocked, but even Naruto, who was ready to kill Sarutobi Hiruzen first.
He was robbed of his head...
However, Naruto's thoughts were clearer than those of other people. He had known the whole sequence of events for a long time, so he was shocked by Shimura Danzo's sudden move for a moment, but he quickly calmed down again.
He re-examined the one-eyed guy in front of him to see what tricks he was going to play again.
As for Sarutobi Hiruzen... he dies.
It doesn't matter whether Naruto does it himself or not.
Of course, Naruto is not the only one who has doubts about Shimura Danzo's move. After being aware of the movement here, everyone on the scene looked at Shimura Danzo.
Jiraiya shouted 'old fogey!' and firmly stared at Shimura Danzo.
Tsunade didn't feel much sentimental about Sarutobi Hiruzen being assassinated in front of her. But her heart was tight, and she had an indescribable feeling. On the contrary, seeing the blood flowing out made her react more intensely.
Frightened, her legs gone a little soft.
She needed Shizune to help her to stand still.
After getting used to it a little bit, she deliberately avoided the blood, and her eyes also fell on Shimura Danzo. There seems to be a kind of, 'if you don't give a reasonable explanation today, then don't think about leaving easily!'
Feeling everyone's eyes, all gathered on himself, Shimura Danzo was very satisfied.
This is what he wants!
As for the "why" asked by old close friend Sarutobi Hiruzen...
He just glanced at the loser with disdain. There was no answer to him at all.
Shimura Danzo moved towards everyone, each minding their own business, and said, "Uchiha Itachi is right! The things in those years were the things decided by Inside the village! And the decision-makers for all these things are the Third-Hokage in front of you!"
