Chapter 92

Kaito landed steadily on the ground, and looking at the scattered, shattered corpses strewn about, he did not immediately let his guard down.

He remembered that Danzō had a Sharingan eye, one capable of using Izanagi, so he made sure to confirm with his Mangekyō Sharingan over and over again.

Only when he was certain that this guy was indeed dead, did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Why didn't he activate it? Is it because I severed the arm with the Hashirama cells, making it impossible for him to use it?

Or is it because my Waterfowl Dance had actually already killed him and he had used it once already?"

Kaito thought silently in his heart, but he could not be sure exactly what it was.

What he could be certain of, however, was that Danzō at this point had been thoroughly dismembered by the blades of the Waterfowl Dance!

This couldn't help but bring a touch of satisfaction to his heart. After all, in his days of watching the anime, this guy was the one he despised most.

After crossing into the Uchiha, Kaito's level of hatred for Danzō had always been high.

Now that he had directly taken this guy out, how could he not feel elated?

However, Kaito soon furrowed his brows slightly. Apart from the strong smell of blood entering his nostrils making him somewhat uncomfortable,

The most important thing was that he found his condition was not quite ideal.

"My chakra is nearly exhausted now, and my eyes are very uncomfortable.

It seems that using so many techniques, including eye techniques, still poses a significant burden on me."

Kaito mumbled in his heart, just yesterday he had a proper fight with Uchiha Fugaku. Although he had recovered, he was still somewhat fatigued.

And tonight was even more over the top, first dealing with Uchiha Itachi, then rushing here to assassinate Danzō.

And in this series of events, he used many techniques, especially the Reverse Path technique, which was combined with many other techniques.

Under such heavy consumption, it would be strange if his condition was good. Now, what he was most grateful for was the physical enhancement that his Mangekyō Sharingan brought him.

Without this kind of enhancement, his chakra reserve would absolutely not be as much as it is, and he would not have been able to hold on until now.

"Good! Very good!"

Just as Kaito was checking on Danzō and his own condition, a voice suddenly broke his train of thought. Sarutobi Hiruzen stood twenty meters away, glaring at him in anger.

"You openly attacked Konoha's important department, brazenly slaughtered Konoha's ninjas, and even brutally killed an elder of Konoha.

Uchiha Kaito, what are your intentions? Are you leading the Uchiha clan to openly rebel?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke very quickly, pinning all the crimes he could think of on Kaito and the Uchiha clan all at once.

At this moment, he was utterly enraged, and his anger made it impossible for him to think clearly.

While he had indeed experienced many farewells in life and death, being a ninja who had come all the way from the Second World War, witnessing the death of his childhood friend and close companion right before his eyes stirred a feeling in him that truly made it impossible for him to calm down.

He glared at the Uchiha before him, even though Kaito's Susanoo had not yet dissipated.

But his anger made him reckless. He hated Kaito, the man who had killed his close friend in front of him!

"Hokage-sama, when did you see us rebelling against Konoha?"

Kaito looked calmly at Sarutobi Hiruzen. At this moment, Shisui had already led the elites of the Uchiha clan to Kaito's side.

Similarly, the elites of the various families who were nearby, and the civilian ninjas who had rushed over, had also arrived.

These civilian ninjas were the first to stand behind Sarutobi Hiruzen, drawing their weapons and assuming a stance of confrontation against Kaito and the others.

However, it was clear to everyone that their gaze towards Kaito and the others was truly filled with fear, with many of them even breaking out in cold sweat on their foreheads.

Those family ninjas, on the other hand, looked rather interesting. Their gazes towards the Uchiha clan also showed some astonishment, shock, and dumbfoundedness.

But they didn't stand behind Sarutobi Hiruzen, but rather scattered around, watching them.

This scene made Kaito nod in relief. He could see that what he had just done had indeed created a deterrent.

The greatest power of a nuclear bomb indeed lies in its detonation, but if the bomb has never exploded to show its power, others might not necessarily be afraid.

The stance of these family ninjas was quite interesting. Obviously, they knew who the Uchihas had attacked, so under these circumstances, they wouldn't act rashly.

"Kaito, Uchiha Fugaku has returned."

Suddenly, Shisui whispered in Kaito's ear, and this sentence greatly relieved Kaito.

"Still quibbling?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen extended his finger towards Kaito, his voice loud and angry.

"Wasn't Danzō a member of Konoha, weren't those dead ninjas part of Konoha?

Moreover, Danzō was a hero of Konoha, and yet you dare to lay hands on a hero, are you going to target me next?

I don't want to hear any of your explanations, Uchiha Kaito, you....."

"Hokage-sama, are you sure you don't want to hear what I have to say and just want to act rashly?"

Kaito interrupted Sarutobi Hiruzen before he could finish speaking, then he slightly shifted his body to the side, revealing an entrance.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, but when he saw the silhouette emerging from the entrance, his expression changed instantly.

Because he saw Uchiha Fugaku walking out, and most importantly, this man was carrying a yellow-haired kid who had fallen unconscious!

At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen's face turned extremely ugly. He knew what this meant.

The two of them nodded at Kaito. In the next moment, their eyes changed, and in an instant, chakras of different colors appeared on their bodies.

With the outpouring of chakra, a cold, destructive aura filled the area.

Three figures of different colors, but all equally instilling fear and chilling the heart, appeared on the scene!

Sarutobi Hiruzen coldly watched everything before him, appearing calm.

But the cold sweat on his forehead and the clenched fist unconsciously revealed that he was truly feeling a sense of helplessness stirring in his heart.

He knew that if he ordered an attack, it would confirm the Uchiha's rebellion, and then the Uchihas would indeed be wiped out tonight.

No matter how strong the individuals in a family, they can't fight against a village, because they are not yet the likes of Uchiha Madara.

But equally, after tonight he would die, Konoha would be completely ruined, and what awaited Konoha would inevitably be another siege from other villages!

"It seems, Hokage-sama has calmed down." Kaito looked indifferently at Sarutobi Hiruzen, his voice calm.

"Tell me, why did you do this tonight." Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep breath, finally speaking weakly.

He truly hated the Uchihas right now, but more so, he despised Uchiha Itachi. Why had he trusted him?

Believed him when he said only he and Shisui had the Mangekyō Sharingan, believed that he could resolve the trouble with the Uchihas.

At this moment, he really wished he could strangle Itachi...
