Chapter 97: Uchiha Itachi Forced to Whitewash

If there was a choice, Sarutobi Hiruzen would never have said such a thing.

Because when these words come out, it not only means that he admits all his crimes, but also means that he will be cast aside forever by Konoha Shinobi people and villagers.

For Sarutobi Hiruzen, it was more cruel than killing him.

True, Sarutobi Hiruzen has done a lot of outrageous things.

Even because of him, Konoha gradually decayed.

But it is undeniable that under his governance, Konoha's ordinary ninjas and ordinary villagers' lives are the best among the five major ninja villages.

Moreover, these things started, not him, but Danzo.

For example, Hatake Sakumo's suicide, although he had some scruples about Hatake Sakumo's high prestige.

But it is Danzo who is really afraid of Hatake Sakumo. Hatake Sakumo has become the best candidate for Fourth Hokage, so what should he do? That's why he has the next move.

Sarutobi Hiruzen only wanted to suppress Hatake Sakumo's reputation, but he didn't expect that Danzo would do it so much.

Never thought that Hatake Sakumo's psychology would be so fragile.

If Hatake Sakumo knew that he would choose to commit suicide, he would never allow Danzo to spread rumors.

The demise of the Senju10-clan is similar to the annihilation of the Uchiha clan, and the one who really did this was also Danzo.

But these things are too big, Danzo, a Hokage assistant, can't bear the blame at all. Besides, isn't everything inseparable from this Hokage?

Where the leaves are flying, the fire is still alive!

The fire will continue to illuminate the village and allow new leaves to sprout.

Over the years, he has witnessed too many sacrifices for Konoha, and now it is his turn... Let him make up for some of the sins he has committed at the end of his life.

Just then, a voice sounded:

"Three... Sarutobi Hiruzen, you said that Uchiha was exterminated, did you do it? Didn't that guy Uchiha Itachi do it?!" It was Uchiha Sasuke, who was standing on the battlefield and asked Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Facing Sasuke's questioning.

Sarutobi Hiruzen subconsciously glanced at his teacher, Senju Tobirama.

The reason why the Uchiha clan was exterminated was still in Senju Tobirama.

In order to target Uchiha, Senju Tobirama set up the Konoha Police Team, which was handed over to Uchiha. The work done by the Konoha Police Team was originally unpleasant, and the Uchiha family was arrogant and always looked down on others. increasingly excluded from the village.

When the rejection gradually turned into hostility, Uchiha had the idea of ​​rebellion, which led to the extermination of the clan.

Although the real reason is this, Sarutobi Hiruzen cannot answer Uchiha Sasuke that way.

Because, for the current Konoha, there can never be a second tainted Hokage.

Worth mentioning, I have already carried so many black pots, and it is okay to take another bite.

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen replied: "The Uchiha clan controls the Konoha police force and does not obey the orders of the Konoha high-level officials, shouldn't they be exterminated?"

"That is to say, it wasn't Uchiha Itachi?!" Uchiha Sasuke hurriedly said.

"It's... Uchiha Itachi indeed."

After a pause, Sarutobi Hiruzen continued:

"After all, Uchiha belongs to Konoha no matter what. As Konoha's high-level executives, we can't directly attack Uchiha, so we forced Uchiha Itachi to do it and wiped out the Uchiha family."

"Why? That guy Uchiha Itachi, why does he obey you?" Uchiha Sasuke was puzzled, but the whole family including his father and mother.

"Do you know why you are still alive?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's question left Uchiha Sasuke stunned for a moment.

After a while, Uchiha Sasuke said in a trembling voice:

"You mean, you used me to persecute Uchiha Itachi and let him do it?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Yes, we threaten Uchiha Itachi with you, and if he doesn't kill the clan, we will kill you, Uchiha Itachi finally compromised, after all, even if he doesn't make a move, we will kill Uchiha, even you. Also alive."

Uchiha Sasuke froze in place.

He never imagined that the truth would be like this.

Rong killed the entire clan with his own hands, but for himself? Didn't he hate the wrong person all these years?

The truth is of course not so.

But for Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen can only say so.

Because of that, it is beneficial to Konoha.

Tsunade as Fifth Hokage.

Even with Jiraiya's help, Konoha will definitely lose a lot of energy after today. How could Iwagakure and Cloud Shinobi Village miss such an opportunity?

Uchiha Itachi, Sarutobi Hiruzen knows well, he loves Konoha.

If you can clean Uchiha Itachi, let him go back to Konoha.

There are Tsunade, Jiraiya, Uchiha Itachi, three Kage-level powerhouses.

Whether it is Iwagakure or Cloud Shinobi Village, if you want to fight Konoha, you must first consider whether you can withstand the counterattacks of the three Kage-level powerhouses.

To the Konoha Shinobi who were present.

Senju's demise and Hatake Sakumo's suicide were decades ago.

But the extermination of the Uchiha clan was only a few years ago.

Most of them were witnesses and their memories were fresh.

After all, Uchiha was the No. 1 wealthy family in Konoha, and his clan was wiped out overnight.

Not to mention Konoha, even the entire ninja world was greatly shaken at that time.

"I didn't expect the truth to be like this."

Although "some do not believe it, but this is the third generation's chief Sarutobi Hiruzen admitted."

"Third Hokage...is that a person?"

"Don't forget Shimura Danzō, Koharu, and Mitokado Homura, these three guys."

Konoha Shinobi people were talking about it, but there were not people who didn't know the truth.

Nara Shikahisa looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with complicated eyes and sighed softly.

When Uchiha was exterminated, he had already served as the squad leader of Konoha's Jōnin class. In Konoha, he was regarded as the highest level after Hokage and Hokage's assistant, so he knew the truth of Uchiha's extermination:

At that time, the conflict between the Uchiha clan and Konoha could no longer be reconciled. The Uchiha clan even wanted to change. There was no way. On the eve of the Uchiha clan's rebellion, the Third Generation agreed to Danzo's actions against the Uchiha clan.

Although he knew the truth, Nara Shikahisa did not stand up to defend the Third Generation.

Because he is very clear, this is the last choice of Third Generation, and it is also the most correct choice.
