Until things develop to the present. There was really nothing to drag on any more.
Seeing that the Uchiha Clan was about to start, they had to call Itachi again and told him to make a decision as soon as possible to avoid making a big mistake.
“You asked me to come, is there something?” Itachi asked.
Shimura Danzo: “Uchiha Itachi, your clan’s questions have been delayed for so long. Is it time to give us an answer?”
Just as he said the words, Itachi looks condensed!
‘Mangekyo Sharingan. Open!’
The long table in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others was suddenly ignited by the black flames!
Xiu!
Xiu!
The four people moved away from black inflammation in a split second. They retreated to the wall, keeping a certain distance from Itachi. In addition to Sarutobi Hiruzen, the rest of the people couldn’t help but set up a fighting stance.
The atmosphere in the Conference Hall instantly became with ‘swords drawn and bows bent. However, Itachi did not take one step further. Instead, the red Mangekyo Sharingan was withdrawn.
The intention is obvious. He made it clear that the four old men in front of him, especially Shimura Danzo.
Shimura Danzo: “Uchiha Itachi! What do you mean? Is this your choice?”
“What do you mean?” Itachi behaved very plainly. “How should I choose? I don’t need you to point fingers. I will arrange the time, and I will inform you naturally.”
Seeing Itachi had no plans to continue, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura draw something to a scroll at this time.
Immediately, the trick from the original work like Jiraiya’s seal black inflammation was used. The black inflammation at the scene was sealed in the scroll.
Several people turned their attention back to Itachi again at the same time.
Utatane Koharu: “Itachi, it’s not that we want to rush you. The situation now; you know it better than us. Do you think it is possible to delay it anymore?”
“Don’t worry, as long as you don’t betray the village, in exchange, we will agree to your previous request and let your younger brother, Sasuke, live in the village normally.”
Hearing it, Itachi’s gaze shifted subconsciously to Sarutobi Hiruzen. The meaning was obvious. Among these four people, he trusted the old fogey, Third-Kage. He needed Third-Kage to give him a guarantee.
The four elders certainly understand Itachi’s intentions.
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked sadly and asked: “Itachi, did you really decide to make this choice? Maybe…”
“Lord-Hokage, no need to say more. As long as you abide by that promise, then I will certainly do what you want me to do.” Itachi directly interrupted Sarutobi Hiruzen’s persuasion.
So far, he didn’t know whether Sarutobi Hiruzen is good or bad. But this is no longer important to him. He believed only in himself. As long as he shows strong enough strength. As long as he’s still alive. Regardless of whether the four people in front of him are people or ghosts, they will certainly not easily act on Sasuke.
Only in this way can the maximum loss be reduced for the village.
Only in this way can the glory of the clan be preserved and will not be rejected by others.
Only in this way, the clan… or Sasuke will survive …
“Na~” Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and put on a look like ‘I will stop persuading’, and then gave him his worthless promise as always, “Well, you can rest assured. As long as this old man is still alive, I won’t allow anyone to hurt Sasuke!”
After finishing speaking, Sarutobi Hitizan also deliberately glared at Shimura Danzo.
Itachi knew the truth… They still didn’t know if it’s true or false. But it doesn’t matter whether true or false. Itachi asked Sarutobi Hizen to give another guarantee just for peace of mind.
Now that the matter has reached a point where it cannot be reversed, Itachi did not intend to postpone it any longer: “Time for action… Wait until I get in touch with ‘that person. I will let you know in advance.”
Itachi didn’t care about their reaction.
Without looking back, he left the Conference Hall.
…….
When he passed the corridor, he met an acquaintance.
Itachi: “Captain.”
Kakashi: “Un.”
The two passed by like this. No one knows that the other side is facing something that is enough to change their destiny in their lives.
………..
Not much time after, an announcement came from outside the meeting room.
“Lord-Hokage, Hatake Kakashi came to see you.”
Inside Conference Hall, Shimura Danzo, full of anger, asked: “Hiruzen, what’s wrong with this Kakashi? Knowing that Conference Hall is a place to discuss the major event, he comes to disturb?”
Because it was impossible to get Kakashi’s Sharingan, plus the incident of Yamato, Shimura Danzo had long been disappointed by Kakashi. Now that Kakashi was here, he didn’t mind venting his angry flame hair on him.
“Something is wrong with Naruto. I just told Kakashi to check him out…… Let him come in, and you should listen as well.”
Of course, Sarutobi knew the true face of this good friend. After all, he knew everything about the assassination, Yamato’s Wood-Style, and the plan to seize Kakashi Sharingan.
After hearing about Naruto, the people’s faces in the Conference Hall became very ugly.
One wave did not stop after another.
It was almost time to start with the Uchiha Clan. But, then, there mustn’t be mistakes with Naruto.
So, several old fellows were very tacit understanding and suppressed their anger they had just received from Itachi.
……..
Kakashi was called into the Conference Hall.
“Kakashi, you are so anxious to find me; is there something wrong with Naruto?” Sarutobi Hiruzen still looked kind.
Kakashi was not very calm. But it did not appear on the surface. On the contrary, Kakashi was as cold as ever. And just when he was about to speak for accountability, he suddenly changed his words: “…No, there is nothing unusual.”
Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others did not feel anything wrong. They didn’t even doubt Kakashi’s conclusion. After all, Kakashi has worked in Root or Anbu, and everyone still trusted his judgment and ability.
“Then, why is Naruto suddenly interested in your business?”
“Recently, many people have mentioned things about me in front of him. So, it only caused his curiosity.”
The two questioned and answered. But in actuality, Sarutobi Hiruzen does not ask, and Kakashi does not respond. The relationship between the two parties seemed to be no different. But in fact, what the four elders in Conference Hall did not know is that Kakashi’s perception of them was no longer as respectful as before. Of course, Kakashi didn’t mean to hide from Naruto or anything. But he was still in chaos. It was impossible to focus on the subtle changes of Naruto while he was thinking about Hatake Sakumo.
………
After Kakashi leaves the Conference Hall…
“Hiruzen, the demon fox must be managed by me! Uchiha Clan is about to take action. There can be no more mistakes in demon fox here!” Shimura Danzo was pervasive.
Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu did not reject Danzo’s proposal this time.
Remaining silent, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who saw through their thoughts, waved his hand. He was very firm and said: “Didn’t Kakashi say everything is okay? Just send a few more people to look after Naruto.”
After that, Sarutobi Hiruzen closed his eyes tightly. The meaning was obvious. He didn’t want to hear any more comments about this matter.
The three glanced at each other. But their heart was more dissatisfied with Sarutobi Hiruzen’s Hokage way of doing things…
