When the Sandaime arrived at the root, the explosions had stopped, leaving only thick smoke billowing into the sky.

The once luxurious root was now reduced to ruins.

Under the scorching flames, the whole place was devastated and charred.

Seeing this, the Sandaime's heart sank.

The most severely collapsed part of the root was where his old friend Danzo was.

"Danzo……"

Around the Root, there were already 20 to 30 Anbu gathered.

All the Anbu still in Konoha were already there. And Obito, who had just changed his equipment, also mixed in with the crowd.

The real murderer is among us.

Under the arrangement of the Sandaime, the Anbu present were divided into two groups.

One group was sent to patrol the surroundings to look for attackers who might have escaped.

The other group followed him into the Root to find out what had happened.

Obito was lucky enough to be assigned to the second group, and he was a little excited.

This act of returning to the crime scene openly as a law enforcer

……It really makes your adrenaline rush!

The group advanced forward in the root.

The ANBU team responsible for exploring the way turned back and reported to Hiruzen

""Sir, the danger has been resolved."

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen quickened his pace and went deeper.

Soon, he saw a group of Root ninjas who looked like they had lost their parents, and the remains of Danzo's office, which was barely recognizable as an office.

"What on earth is going on?!"

The Sandaime's voice was deep, as if it contained endless anger. Obito secretly smacked his lips in the crowd.

It seems that the relationship between the Sandaime and Danzo is quite deep.

If he knew that he was the one who killed Danzo, he might dare to be pressed to the ground by himself on the spot.

A member of the Root said sadly

"Someone deliberately launched this suicide attack against Lord Danzo!"

"According to our estimation, the other party used at least tens of thousands of detonating talismans!"

""It is unknown whether Danzo is alive or dead... His body was not found at the scene!"

The Sandaime could not help but feel a glimmer of hope.

In other words... Could the other party have held Danzo hostage?

He waved his hand.

Several ANBU who were good at on-site investigations stood up behind him and quickly entered the messy wreckage. After a while, an ANBU came out and reported in a low voice:

"Third generation sir, based on some clues at the scene, we have made a rough inference."

"The one who did it is probably a ninja from the Hidden Rain Village... I'm referring to the Hidden Rain Village before the Akatsuki."

Although the Hidden Rain Village has officially changed its name to the Hidden Akatsuki Village, everyone in Konoha still habitually calls it the Hidden Rain Village.

So this Anbu emphasized that it was the Hidden Rain Village before the Akatsuki.

The Sandaime's face darkened again.

"The people from the Hidden Rain Village sneaked into Konoha quietly! They also took away the top leaders of Konoha from the root of the heavy door and drum?"

"What are you doing? Is this the strict security you always told me about?"

"Go check it out for me!" the Sandaime growled.

"Go find out how these Rain Ninjas infiltrated! Why are they related to Danzo! Go!"

"Go and bring Danzo back to me! I want to see him alive or dead! Go!"

Seeing that their boss was angry, the Anbu left the Root silently and scattered to different parts of the village.

……

Obito randomly picked a direction and ran for a while.

Seeing that there was no one around, he quietly moved towards a certain place.

He easily crossed a two-person-high wall and landed in a yard of a family.

Seeing that the main house was still lit, he knew that the other party was waiting for him.

Obito walked into the house, knelt on one knee and said

""Patriarch Fugaku, I have something important to report."

Uchiha Fugaku put down the book in his hand, smiled and helped Obito up.

"I've told you so many times, you don't have to be so polite in front of me, get up quickly.

He pulled Obito up and pressed him to the seat beside him.

Then he asked with a serious face:

"Tell me, what happened to that explosion just now?"

Obito said concisely.

"He is a former ninja from the Hidden Rain Village. He launched a surprise attack on the Root. The fate of Shimura Danzo is unknown, and the Sandaime is furious."

"Now, all the Anbu in the village have been mobilized to search for the whereabouts of Danzo and those Rain Ninjas."

"But I personally think that Danzo and those Rain Ninjas should have died in the explosion."

Fugaku's eyes were like lightning, and his mind was surging. Shimura Danzo's accident was a great thing for his Uchiha clan.

Among the current high-level officials of Konoha , only this hateful guy kept targeting the Uchiha clan.

……Of course, maybe he had the Sandaime's instructions behind him.

But in short, without this guy targeting him, his Uchiha clan can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Thinking of this,

Fugaku looked at Obito on the side and asked with the intention of testing him.

"Oh, Bitto, do you think that the Uchiha clan needs to take advantage of this opportunity to do something?"

After a moment of hesitation, Obito slowly shook his head.

Fugaku said with interest

"Oh? Why?

"Because time is on our side," said Obito."

……Time?

Fugaku unconsciously sat upright, waiting for Obito's next words.

"You have a good relationship with Mr. Minato, and Mr. Minato has shown enough kindness to our family."

"It can be predicted that in the next ten years, Konoha's attitude towards our Uchiha will likely change."

"Not to mention that there are many young talents in my clan. They only need a period of accumulation to flourish and achieve success."

Ah, this...

Fugaku glanced at Obito with a strange look.

Wouldn't this kid... be bragging about himself?"

Obito ignored Fugaku's eyes and said in his heart without blushing.

That's right, Brother Tsuchi is talking about himself.

During my wretched growth period.

I hope everyone can be harmonious and no one will make trouble.

Otherwise, I, the Susanoo Buddha, will visit your house every day in the future. Besides.

There is not much rift between Konoha and Uchiha now.

Even if there is... then wait until I become the Six Paths in the future. We can all sit down and discuss it calmly.

You give me a face, and he gives me a face.

This matter is over.

Obito YY in his heart for a while, and then said

"Although Minato-sensei is now the fourth generation, the one who is truly in power is still... the third generation who has been suppressing our clan."

"Now that Danzo, who was used to check our clan, is gone, if our clan makes any unusual moves, it will be easy for the Sandaime to suppress it."

"Therefore, in my humble opinion, it is better for our clan to keep a low profile for a few years and wait for the third and fourth generations to complete the transfer of power."
