SWNOVELXO Chapter 46: Madara’ Surprise
Upon hearing Fugaku's inquiry, the three ninjas from the intelligence class looked at each other.
They exchanged glances, unsure of what to do.
"Huh? Just tell me what you have to say. There are so many Jōnin here, so everything will be fine." When Uchiha Yuma saw the three hesitant people, he understood their hesitation.
Everyone knew Danzo as a powerful elder and Jōnin.
The three were hesitant because they feared offending him.
"That's right, speak boldly. Dozens of us Jōnin are here. If something happens, we will all take responsibility together!" Fugaku, on the side, was not foolish, and even a fool couldn't be the leader of the Uchiha clan.
He realized from Yuma's words and the appearance of the three people that this information might relate to the village.
His mind raced, considering that the information should benefit Uchiha Yuma.
After all, Yuma was one of the few strong members of the Uchiha clan.
And Uchiha was campaigning as a hope for the Hokage position.
What's good for Uchiha Yuma is good for Uchiha!
After thinking it through, Fugaku quickly gave his verbal promise to the three.
Once the commander gave his word, the three of them felt relieved.
Including the dozens of Jōnin present, once it was said aloud, everyone would know.
If Jōnin knew this much, Shimura Danzo would be in great trouble.
How could he still have the energy to cause trouble for their intelligence ninjas?
Besides, they acted according to the law, and they were blameless.
With their minds now at ease, the three proceeded to reveal the information they had obtained from the heads of the root ninjas.
Elder Danzo had carefully arranged for Uchiha Yuma to be brought to this battlefield.
Then, he conspired with Mizukage of Kirigakure Village and dispatched the Seven Ninja Swordsmen to assassinate Uchiha Yuma.
Once these two pieces of information were revealed, the camp fell into complete silence for a moment. You could hear a needle drop!
After the three intelligence-class members returned to their positions, the venue exploded with conversation.
"How can Yuma Jōnin be so strong? With the Seven Ninja Swordsmen plus the root Jōnin, this kind of power can already influence a battle!"
"That's right! As expected of Shushen Yuma, he killed such a powerful enemy in such a short time!"
"Wait a minute... What's more important to note is the change in Yuma Jōnin's eyes during the battle!"
While ordinary Jōnin marveled at Uchiha Yuma's power, they also noticed the change in his Sharingan, as mentioned in the intelligence.
The Uchiha in the field, including Fugaku, took notice.
One Uchiha Jōnin immediately asked the ninja who reported the incident, "You said Yuma's Sharingan changed during the battle?"
"Yes, that's the information I received."
Wow—!
The Uchiha ninjas all stood up and looked at Yuma in horror.
"Yuma-sama, what exactly happened to your Sharingan?" they asked.
In response, Uchiha Yuma nodded calmly and addressed their doubts.
"Yes, it's as you think. I will explain everything clearly to Clan Leader Fugaku later. As for what you want to know, you'll have to wait for my explanation at the clan meeting when I return to the village."
Mangekyō Sharingan—no need to hide it!
This is the ninja world, and my identity is that of an Uchiha ninja.
It's a bloody ninja world!
When your bloodline is strong, it only brings positive feedback and reputation benefits.
After hearing Yuma's admission, Fugaku approached him.
He patted Yuzhen's shoulder heavily, filled with emotion.
Uchiha's divine power, after so many years, had finally returned to Uchiha!
Thinking about this, he felt extreme hatred for Danzo.
This guy, the first in the village to oppose Uchiha, was well aware of what was happening.
Since he had colluded with forces outside the village, Fugaku couldn't forgive him.
Bang—!
Fugaku slammed the table.
"Everyone, be quiet. What Yuzhen's power is, we will discuss after the meeting ends."
"What I want to explain now is that Danzo colluded with Kirigakure and murdered his comrades without any hesitation."
"I am the commander of the Coastline, and I want to impeach him!"
When Fugaku's words suddenly rang out, the Jōnin in the room came to a realization.
Yes!
Shimura Danzo had crossed the line this time.
"This proposal is good. Let's jointly file a letter to sue Danzo. This is just too much!"
"That's right! Elder Danzo is truly disgusting! He treats his comrades this way and even tries to assassinate them?!"
"Exactly, exactly! Everyone has heard of his reputation as a tolerant person. I thought this title was only used for outsiders, but who knew…"
"Who knew that he would behave this way even toward his fellow villagers!"
"Does he still have the will of fire in his heart?! If so, why would he do such a thing?!"
The Jōnin were enraged after learning what Danzo had done.
They immediately decided to support Fugaku's impeachment proposal.
There was no other choice—this guy was truly abusing his power.
If he did this to Uchiha Yuma today, who knows if he would do it to us next?
On the side, Uchiha Yuma was watching this situation unfold.
He felt so happy!
Things were going even better than he expected.
Shimura Danzo, once the Jōnin filed a complaint together, his reputation would be completely ruined.
Still want to be Hokage?
Go ahead and sleep—everything is just a dream.
Thinking of this, Yuzhen couldn't hold back the corners of his mouth, curling into a satisfied smile.
...
At the same time,
The special White Zetsu, who didn't yet have the name "A Fei," had finally escaped to Uchiha Madara.
After recovering the body by absorbing an ordinary White Zetsu, he explained all the details of the mission to Uchiha Madara.
"What? What you said is true?" Uchiha Madara's eyes widened as he asked urgently. "That boy has opened Mangekyō and defeated you with the pupil technique?!"
"Yes, Madara-sama."
"Huh~" Uchiha Madara breathed a sigh of relief, trying to calm himself.
A teenage Mangekyō?
What had he been doing at that age?
Oh...
He remembered!
When he was a teenager, he had still been messing around with Hashirama.
After being forced by his father to sever ties with Hashirama, he awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan.
"This kid... must not be kept!" Madara's eyes grew colder and colder. "His talent is too strong. He's a complete monster! He'll definitely affect our plans in the future!"
Madara recalled everything he knew about Uchiha Yuzhen.
This kid hadn't experienced any unforgettable events recently.
Awakening Mangekyō Sharingan without such an experience!
There was only one explanation.
His talent was so strong!
Strong enough not to need traumatic events to awaken Mangekyō Sharingan!
Plus, the inexplicable pupil technique that White Zetsu had mentioned.
"This kid is too dangerous! Black Zetsu! From now on, we'll place a dozen White Zetsu around him to monitor him every day."
"Then we'll make targeted plans based on his behavioral analysis… If that doesn't work, I'll take action personally!"
Black Zetsu smiled at this and responded, "Hehe… I understand, Madara-sama."
Black Zetsu also recognized that this boy's ability was indeed somewhat heaven-defying.
It was better to get rid of him.
After thinking for a while, he suggested to Madara, "Since we want to kill this kid, Kirigakure's power is also necessary."
"After informing Mizukage, we will make careful plans."
Madara touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and then responded, "Okay, in order for them to take it seriously, I'll pass the information to Mizukage first."
...
When Kirigakure learned of it, after the Seven Ninja Swordsmen were completely wiped out, the entire village exploded with shock!
