Naruto: This Uchiha is too Evil - Chapter 67
Hiruzen Sarutobi was so angry he almost wanted to breathe fire through his nostrils.
“The outposts of the other four great ninja villages were attacked almost simultaneously with Konoha’s.”
“And while Konoha’s outpost had this left behind, what about the other villages?”
“Perhaps one of those villages found a deployment map of Konoha left behind.”
Hiruzen Sarutobi kept pointing at the military deployment map. “If we don’t attack the other villages, do you think they won’t attack us? Damn it. The ninja world could be on the brink of a major war!”
“Who did this, and how did they get such detailed deployment maps?”
If the enemy used these maps for precise attacks, Konoha would be left defenseless, practically inviting the enemy in. The thought of enemies sweeping in made the Third Hokage’s scalp tingle.
Itsuki smacked his lips. He wanted to say, “Be more confident! It’s not just one village; all four villages have Konoha’s deployment maps! Each from different angles, the only differences are the signatures and notes.”
“Oh, and because I worried the villages might not act, I encouraged their leaders. For example, I told the Raikage, ‘I’ve given you the map, remember to give me the Fourth Raikage’s father’s body. Such a strong physique, especially that part, is useful to me.'”
As for how the Raikage would react, Itsuki thought, “What does that have to do with me? As long as they make a move, it’s fine. If Konoha isn’t in chaos, what will the Uchiha do?”
People would die from this… Itsuki’s eyes were cold. The Uchiha had sacrificed so much for Konoha, leading the frontlines in the ninja world wars, dying the most. Was anyone grateful? The extremists wanted to kill the Uchiha, and even the more peaceful people held prejudice and indifference.
Since everyone treated the Uchiha as enemies, the Uchiha would treat them the same way. It was normal. Why would you make mistakes if the Uchiha were ruthless in enforcing the law? If you didn’t make mistakes, the Uchiha wouldn’t have to deal with you harshly.
Itsuki knew the Third Hokage and Danzo had a hand in this, but the villagers weren’t children; they had their own eyes and brains. If they unthinkingly followed, that was their fault.
In the original story, many ninjas cheered when the Uchiha clan was exterminated, as if the Uchiha had committed heinous crimes. Itsuki sneered. “I am extreme because I am Uchiha! I am the strongest Uchiha! Remember, you struck first!”
Itsuki smiled. “So why did you call me here?”
Hiruzen’s face was severe. “Uchiha Itsuki, we have a mission for you.”
Itsuki kept smiling. “Let’s hear it.”
Whether he would accept it was another matter. If it was a suicidal mission, why would he happily shout, “For Konoha!” He might as well kill them all.
Hearing Itsuki’s tone, Danzo shouted angrily, “How dare you! Do you intend to refuse a mission from the Hokage?”
“Go away,” Itsuki said impatiently. “What’s it to you?”
“You…”
Danzo trembled with rage. Why did he always mention eggs?
“What?” Itsuki said impatiently. “If we talk about disobeying the Hokage’s orders, who in Konoha can compare to you? Have some self-awareness.”
The big guy laughed. That was true. He didn’t like Danzo either. His seclusion was partly due to Hiruzen and Danzo.
“I…”
“What? Just because you have eggs, you think you’re special? You should ask around; everyone has them! Show yours, and it might scare people!”
Koharu Utatane’s face stiffened at this.
“Enough, enough! Stop arguing!” Hiruzen reprimanded, then looked at Itsuki with a headache. “Itsuki, the Five Great Ninja Villages have rarely been so peaceful. I don’t want this peace to be disrupted. Do you agree?”
“I don’t want that either!” Itsuki replied nonchalantly. “I love peace. Everyone in Konoha knows I, Uchiha Itsuki, am the most peace-loving.”
You’re the most shameless! Hiruzen forced a stiff smile. “Since that’s the case, let’s talk about the mission.”
“Even with the deployment map, Konoha doesn’t want to start a war or attack other villages. However, we don’t know what the other villages are thinking.”
“Therefore, we need to monitor them. Until our new military deployment is complete, we can’t let them act rashly.”
“Fine!” Itsuki nodded, taking it all in. “I’ll keep an eye on Kirigakure. I won’t let them cause trouble.”
At this point, he already understood what was meant.
Hiruzen: “…”
You… Kirigakure is already closed off. What are you going to do there? Watch the mist? Go fishing?
“I’ve already sent Kakashi to Kirigakure,” Hiruzen said solemnly. “I want you to go to Kumogakure.”
Great! The most warlike village of the Five Great Ninja Villages! In terms of overall strength, Kumogakure is second only to Konoha. They have many strong ninjas. Iwagakure’s overall strength is slightly lower.
Moreover, Kumogakure is united. Except for the crazy brothers Kinkaku and Ginkaku, they have almost no rogue ninjas. Unlike Konoha…
Giving me the most challenging task, there’s no pretense. If I accept, I’ll end up fighting Kumogakure. My intelligence is probably already on its way to Kumogakure.
“No way!” Itsuki flatly refused.
Hiruzen didn’t say a word. But the pressure in the air increased. He stared at Itsuki, his eyes filled with authority and coldness. In the Hokage’s office, a killing intent began to form.
“Itsuki, I am the Hokage!”
The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, said just that. His position and orders were not to be defied by any Konoha ninja. He could make you laugh or make you cry.
Itsuki sighed softly. “Seeing how serious you are about this big secret, let me tell you a secret.”
Hiruzen smiled faintly. “What secret?”
“I am just a clone!” Itsuki said seriously.
The Hokage’s office fell silent in an instant. Danzo couldn’t contain himself, shouting, “How dare you, Uchiha Itsuki! How dare you send a clone to meet the Hokage! What is the Uchiha clan planning?”
Itsuki looked at him sideways, smiling. “I want to rebel. Do you want to quell it?”
