The Rise of the Uchiha

Danzo's face changed slightly, and he said calmly:"All this is nonsense!" If he didn't know that he didn't really do anything, he would probably have doubts. After all, the things that Uchiha Yan speculated - taking advantage of the opportunity to rise to power, suppressing the Uchiha clan, forcing them to rebel, and then using the power of the village to wipe them out - weren't these exactly what Danzo dreamed of?

This little guy is really terrifying!

"I don't think that this was done by Danzo."Sarutobi Hiruzen was conflicted, and although he also realized that this was quite in line with Danzo's style, he still tried to defend him out of trust in his best friend.

Utatane Koharu and Mitokado En also echoed his words, expressing their firm belief that it was definitely not done by Danzo.

Seeing this, the other clan leaders also expressed their support for Danzo. They knew very well that they must not offend the Third Hokage and the Elders easily.

Seeing that everyone expressed their support for Danzo, Namikaze Minato couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Although he is the Hokage, in fact, he currently truly controls the Anbu, Root, Mission Department, and Intelligence Department.

The people who hold power in important departments such as the logistics department and the finance department are the Third Hokage and the elders.

He has a high prestige among the ordinary people, but not in front of the heads of the major families.

On weekdays, he is just perfunctory on the surface.

Once they encounter major events, they will still stand firmly on the side of the Third Hokage.

At this moment, Minato was very eager to conduct an in-depth investigation of Danzo, but no one was willing to support him.

Uchiha Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and instantly saw the dilemma that Minato fell into, so he decisively said:"Fourth-generation Lord, the 160 ninjas who were ordered to obstruct our rescue of you are very suspicious. They were ordered by Lord Danzo and Lord Third. I think we should investigate the two adults."

After Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at each other, they answered in unison:"We are not aware of the actions of those ninjas."As long as you firmly deny it, then the conspiracy to kill the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze on the battlefield will be out of the question. After all, only a small number of Root ninjas need to be sacrificed to achieve the goal, and these Root ninjas are also under the Tongue- Extermination Seal to prevent leaks.

Uchiha En smiled and said, 'Third Hokage, Danzo-sama, whether you knew or not is not something you can deny with just a few words. There are serious suspicions about the two of you."

"Yondaime-sama, I think we should remove the four sirs from their positions first. After all, it is too dangerous for people like them who hold high positions and hold power to continue to stay in this position."

"Just like before, if the two of them were the masterminds, and they protected each other, and the other two elders also protected them because they were classmates, teammates, and friends, then this matter would have always been an unjust case, and it might even end up with nothing."

"That's the lives of thousands of villagers and ninjas."

"For the sake of Konoha, I propose to remove the four adults from their posts first, and investigate those mysterious ninjas to see if there are other families behind them supporting them."

"This incident could be seen as a coup d'état, an attempt to overthrow the Fourth Generation."

"We also need to investigate the major families to see if they knew about this or provided assistance."

"Of course, our Uchiha clan will also accept the investigation, after all, the mysterious man has our clan's Sharingan."

Everyone was stunned.

Why did he get himself involved?

This kid is not simple. If they don't support him, they may all be suppressed. After all, there are their clansmen in the Root.

Namikaze Minato thought for a while and nodded,"Okay." Uchiha

Yan opened his eyes with a mangekyo and looked at the heads of the various families.

"Do the clan leaders support this? If you do not support it, I will record it. If it is really related to the four elders, the fourth generation will conduct an in-depth investigation of your clan afterwards.

"The Uchiha clan supports it, the Ino, Deer and Chou clans support it, and the Harano clan supports it."……With the support of all the major families.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, Utane Koharu, and Mito Kado En were sweating profusely.

They were dismissed.

"Minato, do you really believe this kid's nonsense?" Danzo stared at Minato Namikaze with gritted teeth.

"Minato, don't you believe me?"Sarutobi Hiruzen was a little disappointed.

How could he be the mastermind behind this?

Utatane Koharu and Mitomon En were just defending Danzo, how could they be considered as covering up for him?

"Danzo-sama, Sandaime, are you questioning the Yondaime-sama?"

"You two are now under serious suspicion. The two elders are too close to you. Now is a critical time for Konoha. The news of the Nine-Tails Rebellion will soon spread to the four major countries. It is too dangerous for people like you who are under serious suspicion and are still in high positions."

"This is all for Konoha"

"You can understand, right?"

Everyone looked at Uchiha En who was speaking righteously.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked like his good friend Danzo at this moment.

It felt like Konoha had changed.

——

The meeting was over. After everyone left,"Yan, please wait a moment." Namikaze Minato called Uchiha Yan.

Uchiha Yan looked at Uchiha Fugaku:"Master, I will go back in a while, you go back first."

Uchiha Fugaku:"No problem, I'll wait for you downstairs." He knew very well that Uchiha Yan was the treasure of the clan. If Uchiha Yan hadn't intervened in what happened last night, they might have really fallen into an irreversible situation: isolation, suppression, forced rebellion, and borrowing a knife to kill people

"Shikaku, what are you thinking about?"On the way, Akimichi Choza saw Nara Shikaku biting his finger, thinking about something.

""Nuyi, Ding Zuo, it seems that we need to make our position clear." Nara Shikaku said with a serious expression.

At this moment, in the Hokage Building

""Why did Yan suddenly attack the four elders?" Namikaze Minato asked Uchiha Yan directly.

Facing Minato's sharp questioning, Uchiha Yan did not panic, but thought for a while, and Uchiha Yan said:"I just want to witness with my own eyes, in this era led by Namikaze Minato, what kind of scene will Konoha Village develop into."

" Mr. Fourth Hokage, how long are you going to continue to be this puppet Hokage?"

Namikaze Minato frowned slightly, with a bitter smile on his face:"Did you notice it, Yan......Maybe I'm really not a competent Hokage."

He sighed softly, as if he was carrying a heavy burden, and looked a little exhausted. However, deep in his eyes, there was still a gleam of determination.

"Let's start with Danzo's Root! All the imprisoned Root ninjas are elites from various families. As long as we make good use of these people, we can force the clan leaders to take a stand."

"The Uchiha clan will be your strongest backing, you can have a good talk with clan leader Fugaku."

Namikaze Minato was shocked, he was naturally very clear about the strength of the Uchiha clan.
