Chapter 721: The Happy Fugaku

Chapter 721: The Happy Fugaku

Bang!

The light smoke dissipated, and Orochimaru, whose throat was pierced by Kakashi, disappeared without a trace.

‘It really is a shadow clone.’

Kakashi retracted his hand, then turned his head and looked towards Itachi not far away.

Just now, he used Sharingan Genjutsu to control Orochimaru, so that Tenzo's Wood Release and his Raikiri could accurately hit Orochimaru.

Kakashi nodded at him: “Good job.”

Itachi nodded back expressionlessly, without saying a word.

‘He became more and more indifferent.’

Kakashi sighed, turned to the captains of the other teams and said: “Everyone, go put out the fire. Don't let the fire spread.”

“I’ll leave this place to you, Kakashi.”

……

Academy’s training ground.

On the makeshift podium, Minato gave a speech while smiling with a carefully prepared manuscript. His blue pupils glanced at the new students and their parents under the stage with smiles.

At this moment, in the vast crowd, two men who had no feelings were standing close together, and their cold eyes looking at the teaching building No. 1 from time to time.

There have just been explosions and shocks coming from the Anbu’s Headquarters and Root’s Headquarters, coupled with the soaring black smoke and fire, it is enough to prove that Danzo’s plan has begun!

Although Minato calmed down the freshmen and their parents present, once the teaching building No. 1 explodes, there will definitely be a huge commotion here!

But the question is…

“What’s going on? The time has obviously come, why is there no movement?”

“They shouldn’t be discovered, right?”

The two looked at each other, and their hearts sank.

They knew that Danzo has been preparing for this plan for many years, so there is no room for any mistakes!

If there is no movement from them, what would their Danzo-sama think of them?

“Let’s take a look!”

The two discussed for a while, and decided to go to teaching building No. 1 to see the situation.

They slowly squeezed to the edge of the crowd, and then moved slowly near the edge. In less than five minutes, the two arrived at the teaching building No. 1 without anyone noticing, and spotted Yamano Ichiro standing under the teaching building at a glance.

They didn’t go over and talk to him, but quietly began to make gestures with their hands.

These gestures are used for internal communication within the Root, and only Root’s members can understand the meaning of the gestures. Outsiders will not know the meaning of these hand seals even if they see them.

Yamano Ichiro is very keen, and quickly spotted these two expressionless gesturing men.

The three of them looked at each other for a while, and the two Root’s Shinobi faintly noticed something unusual. They stopped making gestures, turned around and wanted to leave, but… it was too late.

They don’t know when, but at some point, the vicinity of teaching building No. 1 was already surrounded by Shinobi wearing Anbu’s attire, and they are approaching them quickly!

“Anbu? Does this guy Yamano Ichiro betray Danzo-sama?”

“How is it possible?!”

They didn’t feel that’s possible, after all, Yamano Ichiro has the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal on him!

But…

The two of them stared at Yamano Ichiro in disbelief, only to find that the man was smiling brightly at them.

‘How can Root’s Shinobi smile?’

The two understood immediately, but unfortunately it was too late.

On the podium at the training ground, Minato noticed someone next to him making a gesture to him.

This gesture means that all the Root’s Shinobi lurking near the Academy has been captured!

The smile on Minato’s face grew even brighter at this moment.

……

Hokage Rock.

On Hiruzen’s statue, Danzo and Fugaku are looking at each other ‘affectionately’.

Just now, Fugaku said to Danzo: I’ve never been on your side…

‘Are you talking with human language?!’

‘Think back to when you sent Shisui to sneak attack Yondaime in an attempt to control him with Genjutsu. After he failed and defected, don’t you remember how your Uchiha Clan be suppressed by Konoha’s higher-ups?’

‘Your entire clan was forced to move from the most prosperous part of the village to the most remote place!’

‘All of your clansman were misunderstood, despised, and verbally abused by other villagers. Have you forgotten those suffocating feelings?!’

‘Who was it at that time, who accepted your Uchiha Clan regardless of past grudges, and who was working with you wholeheartedly to achieve great things?’

‘Don’t you remember any of this?’

‘Now, you’re saying that you have never stood on my side…’

‘If you don’t stand on my side, are you still on Yondaime’s?!’

Danzo was trembling all over, with anger, disbelief, horror, shock… all kinds of emotions were brewing in his mind at this moment. Because there were so many emotions, his brain was starved of oxygen for a time, and his one eye turned faintly black. Even Fugaku’s old face in front of him is all blurry.

“Advisor Danzo, are you okay?” Uchiha Fugaku asked with ‘concern’.

Hearing this, Danzo’s forehead burst with veins: ‘How dare you, a beast, care about me?!’

Danzo took a deep breath, trying to suppress the anger in his heart, but the more he breathed, the more stuffy his chest became, giving him a vague feeling of suffocation.

“Uchiha Fugaku!”

After some time, Danzo regained his composure. He stared at Fugaku with bulging veins, while gnashing his teeth, he asked, “Why? Why? Why did you betray me!! What good will betraying me do to you?!”

“The reason is very simple, it’s to save my clan.” Fugaku said solemnly.

“Save your clan?” Danzo was puzzled.

“Shisui was ordered by me to sneak attack Yondaime. If it succeeds, then Konoha will belong to my Uchiha Clan. Unfortunately, it failed.”

Fugaku showed a regretful expression, and said, “Although Shisui escaped from Konoha in time, it was absolutely impossible to eliminate Yondaime’s suspicion of me! So in order to let him let me go, I can only feel sorry to Advisor Danzo.”

Danzo looked incredulous and… showed the expression of hating iron for not becoming steel! (T/N: Hating iron for not becoming steel means feeling resentful towards someone for failing to meet expectations.)

He asked angrily: “In this case, shouldn’t you have even more reason to kick Namikaze Minato from Hokage’s Position? Why…”

“You actually believe it??” Fugaku’s eyes turned strange.

‘Eh?’

Danzo’s expression froze: “What do you mean?”

“It means…”

Fugaku showed an apologetic smile, “Unfortunately, Shisui defected from the village on the order of Yondaime Hokage.”

Boooooommmm~~

At this moment, Danzo seemed to feel that his whole brain exploded. For a while, he became blind and deaf. After staying still for more than ten seconds, he came back to his senses and looked towards Fugaku in a daze.

Fugaku did not say make him wait for long, and says: “There’s a Missing-nin organization in this world, and S-Rank Missing-nin from Great Shinobi Villages including Orochimaru have joined this organization. Yondaime is very concerned about this organization. , so he ordered Shisui to defect, just to go to this organization to be an undercover agent.”

Danzo looked at him blankly, and gradually became hysterical: “Impossible, impossible! You lie to me, you bastard lied to me!!”

“Hahahaha…” Fugaku laughed loudly.

At this moment, he only felt extremely delighted, both physically and mentally!

Once upon a time, the Advisor Group headed by Danzo, Koharu, and Homura targeted his and suppressed his Uchiha Clan countless times. He always remembered those days of frustration and wanted to forget them. But he can’t!

Today, he finally used his own power to take revenge on Danzo!

Although exposing Shisui’s undercover work might put him in danger, Fugaku believes that Minato would never let Danzo go, so this information would never be leaked!

Fugaku admired Danzo’s hysterical madness, and his laughter gradually became rampant: “Hahahahahahahhahahhahahahahhahahahhahhahahhahahahahahahaha…”
