When Hiruzen Sarutobi attempted to persuade Danzo, ninjas from various clans emerged, quickly amassing several hundred, encircling both the Root and the dark side. Hyuga Hiashi arrived and watched from a nearby rooftop, visibly surprised. His initial impression was that Danzo was leading the Root down a path previously suspected of the Uchiha.

"Hiashi, what's the situation?" Aburame Yuske, the patriarch of the Aburame Clan, approached Hyuga Hiashi. The Aburame Clan specialized in using insects in combat, particularly chakra-devouring parasites. Yusuke, donning a big gourd, sunglasses, and a high-necked jacket, exuded a cool demeanor.

Hyuga Hiashi, glancing at Aburame Yusuke, asserted, "It is very likely that Danzo and Root are about to stage a coup."

"A coup d'etat?" Aburame Yusuke was taken aback. "Wasn't there a rumor a few days ago about the Uchiha clan showing signs of a coup d'état?"

"Hmph, that's a lie!" Hyuga Hiashi recounted the events of noon, explaining the Uchiha clan's voluntary submission and the framing orchestrated by Danzo. The news hadn't spread in the village yet, known only to those present during the incident.

Aburame Yusuke, contemplating the situation, nodded. "So, that's true. If Danzo really launched a coup, then everything can be explained. He must have taken the opportunity to frame the Uchiha, but in fact, he wanted a coup."

Hyuga Hiashi, displeased with Danzo's actions, snorted coldly. Yusuke, remaining silent, focused his sunglasses-covered eyes on Danzo.

As more people gathered, Danzo, instead of panicking, displayed an eerie smile. Observing Danzo's calmness, Hiruzen Sarutobi became increasingly puzzled. In this tense situation, Danzo should be flustered, yet he exuded an unusual excitement.

Suddenly, wooden sticks pierced through Hiruzen Sarutobi at a rapid speed. Danzo, laughing joyfully, believed he had succeeded. However, Sarutobi Hiruzen transformed into a wooden stake, revealing it was a deceptive maneuver.

Realizing his imminent role as Hokage, Danzo didn't want to appear foolish. He maintained composure as the villagers arrived, posing as a sage. However, this almost failed, and his relief was short-lived.

After piercing Sarutobi's double, Uchiha Natsu controlled the wooden clone and emerged from the muddy ground, unaffected by the wet terrain. Senju Akira, wearing a mask, took the position of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The appearance of Senju Akira intimidated the onlookers, creating an atmosphere of awe and oppression. Natsu Uchiha, controlling the wooden clone, focused on Sarutobi Hiruzen, prompting Danzo to bow respectfully.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, perplexed by Danzo's unexpected respect, reconsidered the dynamics. The predicted relationship between Akira Senju, Danzo, and the Root had been completely reversed.

"It seems I guessed wrong from the very beginning," Hiruzen Sarutobi admitted, discarding the Hokage Robe. He summoned the ape demon and armed himself with a Vajra Ruyi stick.

Addressing Akira Senju, Hiruzen Sarutobi sought information about the conspiracy. However, Uchiha Natsu responded with the Wood Release technique, silently binding Sarutobi Hiruzen.

As tensions escalated, Akira formed seals, The ground trembled, and nearby structures collapsed, heightening the stakes of the imminent coup orchestrated by Danzo and Genbu.
