Chapter 917 The truth of Danzo
The incident happened too suddenly, and no one expected that someone would suddenly attack Uzumaki.
Sand Village and Iwa Ninja Village did not openly attack under their own banner. They took advantage of the names of major tribes from various countries and said they were afraid of the sealing technique of the Uzumaki clan and quickly launched a premeditated sneak attack.
In this peaceful period, the vortex did not expect such a thing to happen. They were in a remote location, deep in the country of fire, and with Konoha's protection, it shouldn't be any accidents.
It was this carelessness that made Uzumaki pay a heavy price. They had few tribesmen. Since the establishment of Konoha, they have a sense of crisis. Now only a few hundred people live in the village, which is much weaker than during the Warring States Period.
Therefore, at the first moment of the opponent's sneak attack, they did not even organize a decent counterattack, and the entire village fell into chaos.
Afterwards, many tribe members were killed during the melee, and many tribe members fled in scattered places, not knowing where to go.
Of course, Uzumaki is also one of the Warring States tribes after all. Although his strength is far inferior to that of the past, it is impossible to be directly exterminated. About 200 tribe members gathered together and headed towards Konoha Village.
In Konoha Village, there are still a small number of Uzumaki people. When the village was built, they specially built a tribe land for Uzumaki.
...
Bang!
At the main base of Konoha Village Anbu, Sarutobi Hirossed a punch to the solid wood table, and two cracks appeared under his fists and kept winding.
"You have known the news for a long time, right? You have suppressed the information, right?" Sarutobi Hinata whispered in a low voice, his eyes flashing with anger.
This morning, he suddenly received news that several Uzumaki people came to Konoha for help, and said that the Uzumaki had been attacked by terrifyingly.
After learning the news, Sarutobi was shocked and immediately stabilized several Uzumaki people and rushed to Anbu.
With such important news, Konoha's intelligence system cannot be reported until the first batch of helpers arrived. If that is the case, Anbu can be disbanded directly on the spot.
But he did not receive any news before, so there was only one explanation, someone deliberately suppressed the information. And those who could have such skills in Konoha didn't have to think too much about who he knew.
Shimura Danzo looked calm. When facing the questioning, he didn't even frown and said calmly: "That's right, Anbu and Kemibe received the news two days ago, that is, the day the whirlpool was attacked, the information reached me, and I suppressed it and did not report it to you."
"Why!" Sarutobi Hinazo said in a deep voice, "Do you know the seriousness of this matter? Uzumaki... Uzumaki is our natural ally, our most important partner, and a relative of Qianye. If they have any trouble, you should know the consequences."
Danzo was very calm and sat there without getting up. He picked up the teacup next to him and took a sip. He said with a low look: "It is precisely because they are Qianshou's relatives that I suppressed the information. Can you not understand the key here? Hizawa."
Sarutobi Hinazon's face changed and became a little ugly, "What do you mean?"
Danzo sneered, "Hizon, no one knows what you have done before, can I not know, you use the power of the village to slowly divide Qianshou, hoping to reduce their voice and enhance the status and rights of Naruto through the means of softness. All of this is clearly visible in my eyes." "But you are too naive after all. You have achieved some achievements over the years. Many of the Qianshou's branches have been completely integrated into the village, but it has come to this point. You think this is enough, no, it is far from enough. The special nature of the Qianshou clan, they only have direct lines and enough power, which is a challenge to the rights of Naruto.
Moreover, the Uzumaki tribe is far away from the village and lives in their own Uzumaki country. This is a powerful help to Qianshou. When some of your decisions conflict with Qianshou, they will definitely stand on Qianshou's side. In addition, Konoha has been established for so many years, and they still maintain such a high degree of independence and do not mention joining the village at all. It just takes this opportunity to teach a lesson.
Even if they are not exterminated, they will only be the same as Konoha's ordinary family in the future.”
Sarutobi Hinazo was slightly silent and hesitated: "But they are our friends after all, and Chiaju is not our enemy. They are the backbone of the village. As the leadership of the village, we should not put them on the opposite side."
"Hmph, stupid." With a snorting, Dan hid himself, looked at him coldly and said, "Hizun, you are still as innocent as ever. This is not whether we want to target Chiaju, but for the sake of the village, it is necessary to do this. Today, Konoha's development, the so-called clan has become an obstacle. They are unwilling to give up their rights, and they are standing opposite to the village.
Some things are not something we can do without doing. When Tomorama was alive, he often taught us that for the sake of the village, some things must be abandoned and we must make decisions.
This point, whether it is Uchiha, Senju, or other major families in the village, as long as the village hinders the development of the village, it will end up the same. I think even if Teacher Tobirama comes, he will make the same decision."
Speaking of this, he whispered: "Hizhan, put away your boring hypocrisy. You can understand these things without me telling you. Qianshou did nothing wrong, and Yuzuru did nothing wrong. On the contrary, they all made great contributions to the village. But at this point, the Qianshou clan still wanted to obtain the same rights as before, which was wrong in itself.
In any case, if we do this, we will not kill all of us, nor will we do anything extreme. Just like this vortex, it is actually not our fault. We are just receiving the 'information' a little late."
"Let's go, Hinazen, let the Ninjan come out, all the people who are asking for help from Uzumaki have arrived. It's time for us to go and rescue."
