I Became the Uchiha Patriarch

"Elder Ito, you are not injured, are you sure who it is? You actually sent a twelve-member ninja team to sneak into the Fire Country to attack and kill them." A Jōnin said.

"I haven't confirmed the identity of the other party yet. It's just a matter of you uncovering the masks of these assassins together to see which country sent them to kill me, a useless old man."

"Yes."

A number of ninjas immediately dispersed to remove the mask of the slain root ninja. The leader of the Konoha squad also walked up to a root member and lifted the mask.

"hiss"

He involuntarily took a breath. The ninja whose mask he had lifted in front of him was very familiar. He was two years older than him in the ninja school, and suddenly disappeared a few years after graduation.

He had heard from other Konoha ninjas that it was said that they entered the root, and now lying in front of him, he died because of assassinating Elder Konoha. This Konoha ninja understood that they were afraid that they would be involved in big trouble.

One by one, they walked to the other corpses and looked intently. Although the identities of the root members were kept secret, the so-called secrecy would be meaningless if the masks were revealed to reveal their true faces.

Several familiar faces came into view one by one, and it was certain that they were all Konoha ninjas, who had been in the regular ninja army.

At this time, the team leader and the two junin can already confirm that the assassin is a member of the roots.

Elder Ito also saw the true faces of the twelve slain ninjas when they unveiled their masks. Their faces changed from calm to angry, and their eyes seemed to spew out flames.

"Shimura Danzo, the old man and you are irreconcilable." Elder Ito roared angrily.

Ito never thought that Danzo would send someone to assassinate him. Although he felt that Danzo's ideas were a bit radical in the past, it was all because of Konoha. The elders turned a blind eye to many things.

Now that Danzo is attacking him, other high-ranking Konohas who have different ideas from Danzo may also be assassinated by him. With such a heart, he actually ranks in the top of Konoha, becomes a consultant, and is in charge of the root.

"Danzo, the old man will never let you stay in the high-level Konoha, psychic."

A goshawk appeared in the field, this is Elder Ito's psychic beast, took out a blank scroll from the ninja bag, wrote the specific situation on it, tore off the written content, and stuffed it into the goshawk's In the ankle ring, let the goshawk fly.

This goshawk will pass the news back to the home of an elder in Muye Village, and send the news back.

In the forest in the distance, Fuyue hid in the forest and watched the movement here quietly. Danzo has been exposed, and he doesn't know what will happen next.

Fuyue is looking forward to what will happen after Elder Ito returns to Konoha with the body. No matter how much Danzo can quibble, no matter how much the advisory group favors Danzo, he will not allow him to quibble in the face of iron facts.

Several people first restrained several subordinates led by Elder Ito, and gathered the corpses of the root members together.

After nearly an hour, the second team of ten support ninjas arrived. The captain, Kyosuke, is a veteran Konoha jōnin.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

When Kyosuke's team arrived at the battlefield, they saw more than a dozen corpses on the ground at first glance, and then looked in other directions, and the slightly embarrassed Elder Ito came into his eyes.

"Elder Ito, are you okay?"

"The old man is very good. Back then, the old man fought side by side with the first generation. Some people want the old man's life. It's not so easy."

Kyosuke scanned the corpses in front of him. As Konoha's veteran ninja, he basically knew most of Konoha's ninjas except those who had just graduated. Some of the corpses in front of him were very familiar to him and had already been transferred to the root.

"Elder Ito, the guard is strict, these are root ninjas." Kyosuke asked.

"Even you can see that Danzo thinks the old man is blocking his way, and blatantly wants to eradicate the old man. You take the body back to Konoha with the old man, and let the third generation give the old man an explanation."

Elder Ito said angrily: "I want Hokage, the advisory group, the elders, and Konoha's ninjas to see what Danzo is doing in secret.

The old man has sent a message to the elders. When we return to Konoha, the elders and the third Hokage are probably waiting for us. "

"Yes."

More than a dozen people began to deal with the ninjas at the root. Fuyue hid in the woods and watched for a while, then turned and disappeared in place.

The goshawk flew very fast, and it landed in the courtyard of an elder in Konoha for more than an hour. The elder's name was Ize. Elder Ize knew that it was Elder Ito's message when he saw the goshawk.

Today Elder Ito should have got up and went to the capital to deal with matters, coordinating some matters between Konoha and the country of fire. These old guys still have some contacts in the capital.

He took out the information from Goshawk's ankle ring, unfolded it and read it.

Elder Yi Ze went from smiling to livid, and couldn't help cursing: "Danzo, if you let me know that the matter is true, the elders will be at odds with you."

Turning around, he called a ninja and said, "Send a letter to the elders of Konoha, come to my house to discuss things."

"Yes."

The group of elders came very quickly, and there are nine elders in Konoha who are still alive, including Ito.

"Elder Yi Ze, I don't know what is the matter with us. I am preparing to train my grandson and teach him the assassination method I learned back then."

"You still taught your grandson the way of assassination, whether you can live until your grandson grows up, some people think we are old and have started to clean us up." Elder Yi Ze said angrily.

The elders who rushed over were stunned, there was something in Yi Ze's words.

"Yize, what happened, who wants to deal with us." Another elder said.

"Half of our body has been buried in the ground, who will attack us."

Elder Yi Ze handed the information in his hand to several elders, and they read it one after another.

"Bastard, Danzo dared to do this. Immediately go to the third generation, hold a Konoha high-level meeting, let all the patriarchs of the major families attend, and see Danzo's ugly face."

"How is Elder Ito's injury? Is there any serious problem? Based on what I know about him, since he passed the information to us, it is likely to be true. Elder Ito is not a person who likes to make such jokes."

"Elder Ito is really serious at ordinary times, and he doesn't make jokes easily, let alone this kind of joke."

Several elders were filled with righteous indignation. They had shed blood and sweat for Konoha back then, and their relatives and friends had also died for Konoha. Now that they are old, they should have taken care of themselves. The power organization to ensure the normal operation of Konoha.

Danzo's behavior made them feel sad. If they can assassinate Elder Ito today, they may assassinate any elder present tomorrow.
