Chapter 724: Are You Here to Mess With Me Again?!
After the freshman’s speech, Minato hurried back to Hokage Residence, met Eagle, and then went to the conference room.
At this time, including Kanpū and Kakashi, all the captains of Anbu’s teams in charge of Root’s Headquarters, Military Police Force’s Headquarters, Konoha Hospital, etc. had gathered in the conference room. As soon as Minato arrived, they immediately reported their respective circumstances.
Kanpū refused to give in, and was the first to report the mission: “Hokage-sama, I have successfully led our people to capture Danzo’s real body, and he has been escorted to Anbu’s Headquarters now.”
As for Fugaku, because it is related to Mangekyo Sharingan and Susanoo, it has to be reported privately.
Minato nodded with a smile, ‘Kanpū is still very reassuring in his work.’
He then looked towards the others with a smile.
“Hokage-sama, the Root’s Shinobi at the Academy has been captured.”
“After the explosion of Root’s Headquarters, no Root’s member was found in the vicinity.”
“No Root’s member was found near the Military Police Force.”
“No trace of Root was found at Konoha Hospital.”
Minato frowned slightly and looked at Kakashi.
Kakashi lazily took a step forward and said: “The explosion of the Anbu’s Headquarters attracted three people. Except for Orochimaru, the other two all disguised themselves, and they are all shadow clones, and disbanded without even fighting, so we can’t confirm their identities.”
Minato asked: “Are there traces of Root found nearby?”
Kakashi shook his head: “No.”
Minato’s expression sank when he heard this.
Seeing this, Eagle hurriedly said: “Hokage-sama, Root is short of funds and manpower. Perhaps Advisor Danzo didn’t place his subordinates elsewhere.”
Minato shook his head and thought, ‘Danzo's character was extremely stable and cautious. Since he has installed Root’s Shinobi at the Academy other than Yamano Ichiro as a backup, he will definitely also have manpower in other places!’
Unfortunately, things are settled now. These unknown Root’s Shinobi will definitely hidden themselves after knowing that the plan has failed. When the news of Danzo’s arrest comes out, what will these lurking Root do?
Save their boss?
Or take revenge against society?
Considering the self-destruct threat of Gozu Tenno, Minato cannot ignore these remaining Root’s members.
At this time, Kanpū, as a confidant, saw through Minato’s thoughts at a glance, and said: “Hokage-sama, Advisor Danzo must have gone all out for this plan, so I believed he must have engraved the Gozu Tenno on all his subordinates, but… it shouldn't be so easy to succeed, right?”
Minato’s eyes lit up upon hearing this: ‘That’s right, Gozu Tenno is Summoning Technique after all, and behind it is Summoned Beast from another world, and not everyone can sign a summoning contract with Summoned Beast like this.’
‘If this Summoned Beast can sign a summoning contract with anyone, then Danzo will surely do it whether it is for self-protection or mutual destruction, or simply to increase the success rate of the rebellion. He will definitely make all the Root’s Shinobi under his command sign a summoning contract!’ ‘But this is obviously not the case!’
‘However, just in case, it is still necessary to let Anbu keep an eye on the news of these remaining Root’s members.’
After thinking about it, Minato immediately gave Eagle a series of tasks, such as protecting the safety of the prisoner, Danzo, preventing the remnants of the Root from counterattacking, searching for the whereabouts of Root’s Shinobi, and so on.
Since everything has been settled, Minato is going to the Anbu’s Headquarters to see Danzo, so he waved his hand and disbanded everyone.
Kanpū quickly requested to stay on the grounds of reporting important information.
After the others left, Kanpū started speaking: “Hokage-sama, when Advisor Danzo was arrested on Hokage Rock, Clan Head Fugaku was also present.”
Minato was puzzled: “Did he stop you?”
Kanpū shook his head and said: “No, but he hates Advisor Danzo more than I thought, and almost killed Advisor Danzo under my nose.”
Minato sighed: “During Sandaime’s reign, the Advisor Group composed of Advisor Danzo, Advisor Kohru and Advisor Homura had been suppressing Uchiha Clan and Clan Head Fugaku. It is understandable that Clan Head Fugaku has hatred in his heart.”
Then, Minato looked at Kanpū strangely: ‘The confidential information you mentioned… that’s it?’
Kanpū knew that he was talking too much nonsense, so he quickly got to the point: “When Clan Head Fugaku attacked Advisor Danzo, he used Mangekyo’s power!”
‘Mangekyo?’
Minato was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately came back to his sense, and his face changed slightly: “Mangekyo Sharingan?!”
Kanpū nodded solemnly.
Minato had already understood the power and weirdness of the Mangekyo Sharingan from Obito and Shisui.
Obito’s Space-Time Ninjutsu that surpasses Flying Thunder God Technique, Shisui’s Genjutsu, Kotoamatsukami, which can silently change the enemy’s will, these are not Ninjutsu that ordinary Shinobi can master through training!
Minato took a deep breath and asked: “What is the ability of Clan Head Fugaku’s Mangekyo Sharingan?”
Kanpū answered: “A black flame with extremely high temperature. It only took a few seconds to kill two Root’s Shinobi into ashes.”
Minato's pupils shrank: ‘Ashes?’
‘To be able to burn humans to ashes, the temperature needed…’
As far as Minato knows, there is no Fire Release Ninjutsu in the Shinobi World that can burn humans to ashes!
“Also, he used a kind of demon statue during the battle…” Kanpū was about to describe it in detail when a voice suddenly came from outside the room.
“That’s Susanoo!”
The one who said that is Hiruzen, who walked in.
“Sandaime.” Minato nodded towards him.
Kanpū also greeted respectfully: “Sandaime-sama.”
Hiruzen nodded slightly and continued: “Susanoo is a powerful Dojutsu that will automatically awaken after the Sharingan evolves to the Mangekyo. It is even called the absolute defense! I didn’t expect Clan Head Fugaku’s Sharingan to evolve to the level of his ancestor, Uchiha Madara. It’s really surprising.”
Hiruzen looked at Minato deeply and continued, “Yondaime, you have to be careful with him!”
‘In other words, Shisui also owns Susanoo.’
Minato smiled and said nothing.
At this time, Hiruzen didn’t know that Shisui had also awakened Mangekyo, otherwise, he might have trouble sleeping and eating.
“Sandaime, why are you here?” Minato smiled and changed the subject.
Hiruzen’s expression instantly became lonely, and he sighed slightly: “Danzo should have been caught.”
“Yes, we are about to go see him.” Minato said.
“Let’s go together.” Hiruzen said.
……
Anbu’s Headquarters.
The thick smoke has dispersed, the fire has been extinguished, and the shattered glass has been cleaned up and someone is responsible for reinstalling them.
After several Anbu’s captains arranged enough manpower to guard the building, they disbanded the remaining Anbu.
In the locker room of the sixth team, Itachi ignored Tenzo and the others. After silently changed back to his clothes, he went home alone.
This time Danzo launched a rebellion, Itachi was quite worried at first, for fear that the people of his clan will also be involved, but fortunately, so far, no Uchiha Clan’s members have appeared in this rebellion.
Itachi naturally cares about his clan, but he cares more about his younger brother, Sasuke.
If members of his clan were involved in Danzo's rebellion, it would be bad if his younger brother was implicated.
As he walked, Itachi suddenly frowned, as on the path in front of him, stood a familiar figure.
‘Gekko Kanpū…’
Itachi didn’t want to pay attention to him, so he looked away expressionlessly, trying to walk past him.
“Itachi!” ‘Kanpū’ took a step to the left to stop him, his eyes are sincere and he called him out emotionally.
Itachi’s face twitched when he saw this. Despite his composure, he couldn’t help but curse inwardly at this moment: ‘This bastard, did he think that he didn’t make me embarrassed enough last time, so he’s trying to do it again?’
