Naruto: Rise To The Top

"Hokage-sama, are you saying that the Root Ninja under the leadership of Danzō kidnapped the candidate of the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki?" said the head of the Aburami clan.

"Danzo, what the hell are you thinking?"

"We're about to start a war. Why are you doing this?"

"Hokage-sama, I want to pull my clan's ninja out of the root."

"Hokage-sama I demand that the root be dismantled."

"Hokage-sama, let's put him in prison and interrogate him. What are his purposes for doing this?"

As soon as Hiruzen finished speaking, an uproar occurred within the hall.

"The three of them have gone out on various missions, and they were taken by Sato two days ago, Kato a week ago, and Rinko yesterday, and I have all the documents at the Root Ninja Headquarters," said Danzo calmly in self-defense.

"Hirozen, do you have proof that it was me who did this?" Danzo spoke, causing the hall to calm down.

"Kato's body has been recovered and his identity has been confirmed. So it has been confirmed that he is a Root Ninja," Hiruzen said while sighing.

"Let's finish this needless discussion, Hokage-sama, it's clear that he did this, so make up your mind about it." Shikawa spoke.

After a while, all the clan heads agreed that Danzo did that and should be punished, and they were waiting for the Hokage's decision, but the strange thing was that Danzo was very calm and did not interfere in their discussion or defend himself.

Hiruzen was looking at his friend and was disconcerted because Danzo was calm and not defending himself 'Is it because he really did that so there is nothing to say to defend himself'

'There is something strange about Danzo being calm, does he have a way out of this mess?' For some reason, Ryuu didn't like to see Danzo calm and Ryuu was worried about it.

After a while the meeting room calmed down to wait for the Hokage's decision.

Hirzuin looked at Danzo and then looked at the people in the meeting room and thought for a moment and then made his decision and when he wanted to give the decision to dismantle the root and imprison Danzo, Danzo suddenly spoke.

"Then how about we have the head of the Yamanaka clan check my memories, if I really give them orders or not, he can find out," Danzō said very calmly and was not afraid to check his memories.

"Okay, let's do this, Inozumi, can you scan Danzo's memories and send the information you find to everyone present?" Hiruzen said agreeing with Danzo's suggestion.

"Okay, Hokage-sama," Inozumi said as he rose from his chair and walked over to Danzō to check his memory.

"You'd better just scan the memories from last week, if you scan more memories than that I'll take countermeasures to tech you out of my mind, and then you'll regret intruding even more on the memories." Danzo said to Inozumi in a serious voice with some menace before starting the memory scan.

"Okay, but the information proving your innocence should be there within this week," Inozumi said, then reached out to place it on Danzo's head and used the 'Psycho Mind Transmission' technique.

Within a minute, Inozumi watched Danzo's memories for a whole week. Then he separated his hand from Danzo and was breathing hard.

'Why is examining Danzo's memories so hard, and it usually takes a few moments, to scan the memories for a week' Inozumi thought while looking at Danzo who seemed calm.

He then used the Mind Body Transmission Technique to pass on the information he obtained to everyone present.

All the information they received proves Danzo's innocence. In Memories, Danzo really sent the three on different missions, and there is no information about planning to kidnap Kushina Uzumaki.

"It's not enough to make him innocent. He might have planned it before this week, otherwise why didn't he let you search for more than a week in his memory?" Shikawa said, feeling suspicious of Danzo.

Danzo smiled and said, "You're right, that's not enough to make me innocent, but I have more than one proof of my innocence, why don't you show them the rest of the evidence, Inozumi."

Inozumi once again used the Mind Body Transmission Technique to transmit information to everyone.

This information shows that Danzo discovers some of the betrayals committed by the three towards Konoha, and he plans to arrest the three after they finish their missions and return to Konoha.

One of their betrayals that Danzo discovered was to leak information about Konoha to Iwa Village.

At this moment everyone was shocked, no one expected Danzo to be innocent. But within moments he proved his innocence.

'Is Danzo really innocent? I'm glad to hear that' Hiruzen thought as he sighed in relief, he was glad his friend didn't do such a thing.

'There's something wrong with Danzo' Ryuu thought but he couldn't find the wrong thing.

'There is something fishy with Danzo, he was not shocked when the Hokage said the events of the kidnapping and the names of the kidnappers as if he already knew about it, and also since he entered the meeting room he was calm, as if everything was under his control.' Shikawa thought.

Then he starts to look at Danzo and Inozumi feeling suspicious that they are cooperating, but he stops his thoughts 'Damn stop doubting your friend'

"I think that's enough to make me innocent, so let's talk about war now," Danzo said with a smile, but his smile did not last.

Suddenly, Shikawa interrupted Danzō, "Hokage-sama, I still want to withdraw my clan members from the Root Ninja."

"Why? Danzo's innocence has been proven so you don't need to withdraw your clan members," Hiruzen said.

"I think Danzo is incompetent in managing ninjas because the people under his command betrayed Konoha, so I hope to withdraw my clan members from the Root Ninja," Shikawa said.

After hearing the words of the Nara Clan Chief, the other clan heads began to demand that their clan members be withdrawn from the Root Ninja.

"Since you want to withdraw your clan members from the Root Ninja, that's fine with me," Danzo said, and there is no anger because they are withdrawing their clan's ninja from the Root Ninja.

'What is Danzo doing, why does he accept so easily. What is he planning,' thought Shikawa.

'Is this person really Danzo? Why isn't he angry at dismantling the Root Ninja? System, can you show his stats for me?' Ryuu started suspecting that the person sitting wasn't Danzo, so he wanted to see his stats.
