Naruto: I was reborn as Uchiha Sasuke

Chapter 33 Sasuke defected

On April 64, 4th year of Konoha, the sunlight was obscured by thick clouds, and it seemed a little dim. The solemn atmosphere weighed heavily on people's hearts like a lead block. Left Prime Minister Tokugawa Nobuyasu looked solemn and hurried into the Purple Palace. He was like a restless rabbit in his heart, and he was very nervous. He had no idea how the prince would react after seeing Konoha's materials. He handed the detailed materials provided by Konoha about the Wood Release experiment and the White Fang suicide case to the young prince with both hands and respectfully presented them.

Prince Qing took the materials and flipped through them quickly with an anxious and sharp look. His face became more and more gloomy as he turned the papers. Finally, he slammed the table in anger, stood up abruptly and shouted, "Come and see! Konoha is so bold and presumptuous. It deceives me so blatantly and despises my country! Is this the so-called loyal Konoha that protects the country? Humph!" He was so angry that his whole body was shaking, his hands clenched into fists, and the anger in his heart was like a blatant burning flame. His angry voice echoed in the solemn and dignified Zi Chen Hall, filled with endless anger and dissatisfaction.

The officials working in the solemn and dignified Zichen Hall were all nervous, with their heads lowered as they passed the materials around, exchanging worried and solemn glances with each other. They were all secretly wondering in their hearts whether Konoha was going to openly oppose the Fire Nation. After the circulation was completed, the left prime minister Tokugawa Nobuyasu stepped forward and said indignantly: "What an ungrateful Konoha! They pushed both of these difficult issues onto Orochimaru. Take the suicide of White Fang for example. Orochimaru was obviously not a high-ranking official in Konoha at the time. However, Konoha did not mention a word about the follow-up measures and how to prevent such tragedies from happening again. It just stated the events before and after in a light-hearted and simple manner. Your Highness, I have already hinted at this in a tactful way at the Konoha banquet, hoping that they would be able to give a proper explanation. But I never expected that Konoha would be so stubborn and not take our country's dignity seriously. I dare to suggest that financial assistance to Konoha should be suspended immediately as a punishment." As he spoke, Tokugawa Nobuyasu bowed deeply with a sincere and firm attitude.

After hearing these words, Young Prince's chest rose and fell violently, and it was obvious that he was extremely emotional. He paced back and forth in the hall, with his hands behind his back, trying to calm his turbulent emotions a little. He repeatedly pondered over Konoha's various actions in his mind. After careful consideration, he slowly said: "Don't abolish the financial assistance to Konoha for the time being. After all, Konoha's strength still exists and it still poses a certain threat. Moreover, according to the current situation, Konoha really has no possibility of transformation. Next year, I am determined to establish my own ninja team and increase investment in it. Only in this way can I avoid being controlled by others in key matters. Let's publish this Konoha material in its entirety. Release the original document so that everyone can see what Konoha has done."

"Your Excellency the Crown Prince is wise!" The officials shouted in unison. Their voices were uniform and loud, echoing in the Purple Palace for a long time, as if they were about to break through the constraints of the palace.

On April 4, warm sunshine generously sprinkled on every corner of Konoha. After Tsunade's meticulous treatment over the past few days, Sasuke's physical condition has improved day by day, and he is getting better and better. At the same time, Kakashi, who has always been a worry for everyone, has finally woken up from a long coma. This good news made the whole Konoha feel relieved and relieved. Under Tsunade's superb medical treatment, Xiao Li and Akimichi Choji also slowly got rid of the troubles of injuries, gradually recovered their health, and regained their former vitality and vigor.

After completing the discharge procedures, Sasuke walked alone on the way back to Uchiha Sasuke's residence in a remote place. His extremely sharp perception made him notice something unusual. His brows slightly frowned, and his steps slowly slowed down. He couldn't help wondering: Could it be Orochimaru's people? It seemed that there were ninjas secretly following him. Without any hesitation, he decisively pulled out the shuriken from his ninja tool bag to test it. As the shuriken whistled out, several figures flashed out in an instant. Sure enough, it was the Sound Four. Sasuke glared at them, crossed his arms, and shouted loudly: "It's you! Do you still want to attack Konoha?" But in his heart, he was thinking quickly about how to deal with it. Kidomaru quickly apologized with a smile, waved his hands and said, "Sasuke-sama, you misunderstood. We are not here to attack Konoha. We came here to pick you up. We heard that you were defeated by Uchiha Itachi, but don't be discouraged. Orochimaru-sama's strength is unfathomable. He has the power to kill the strongest Hokage."

Sasuke heard this and couldn't help but ponder in his heart. Whether in the original plot or the current actual situation, the Four Sound Ninjas were able to sneak into Konoha so quietly and have not been discovered. This is enough to show that there must be some unknown secret connection between Danzo and Orochimaru. Thinking of this, Sasuke's face was gloomy and his eyes were cold. He said: "Okay, let's meet at Nanga Shrine tomorrow night." He thought to himself that he would stabilize them first.

Sakon and Ukon said anxiously: "It's better to do it now, Master Sasuke..."

Sasuke interrupted him without any politeness, raised his hand firmly and replied: "I am informing you, not discussing with you! How about you try to take me away by force?" His heart was full of determination and decisiveness.

Seeing Sasuke's firm attitude, Kidomaru thought for a while and said, "Lord Sasuke, then let's do as you say and gather at Nanga Shrine tomorrow night." After that, the four of them disappeared from the spot as quickly as ghosts, leaving only a slight sound of wind.

On April 4, warm sunlight gently sprinkled into Sasuke's room through the window. Sasuke rested well for a whole day, carefully sealing the items he needed to carry into the scroll one by one. In the morning, he went out as usual, bought some things, and then went to visit Kakashi, Naruto, Sakura, Neji and others. He behaved as naturally and kindly as usual, with a faint smile on his face, without showing any abnormality, as if this was just an ordinary visit.

Moreover, Sasuke also informed Qingshizi of his decision to leave Konoha tonight by sending a message. After receiving the message, Qingshizi hurriedly replied and advised him to be careful.

When the night slowly fell like a black curtain, covering the entire Konoha Village, Sasuke met with the Sound Four at the Nanga Shrine on time as agreed. Kidomaru took out a wake-up pill from his arms, handed it to Sasuke and said, "Sasuke-sama, please take it." Jirobo had already prepared a sturdy box. After Sasuke took the wake-up pill, he put him in the box. Then the four of them quickly left Konoha with the box and disappeared into the vast night, leaving Konoha Village sleeping in the silent night.
