Chapter 140 Chapter 140 Confrontation
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who knew the characteristics of the Eight Gates, felt that everything happening before his eyes was extremely absurd, and even wondered if he was dreaming.
In the crowd, almost the next second after Might Guy's Eight Gates state was forcibly closed, Kakashi had already flashed to Might Guy's side and helped him up as he was about to fall due to exhaustion.
Although Kai's goal was not achieved, at this moment, Kakashi was actually somewhat relieved.
Fortunately, the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu was interrupted, otherwise he would probably have lost his last bond in the village today.
He had already pulled up his forehead protector, the jade in his eyes swirling as he met A-Li's eyes warily. But in that second of staring, all of his dark sides seemed to be exposed to that person...
He avoided her gaze as if he was burning, but once they made eye contact, Kakashi was in a state of extreme embarrassment.
Sarutobi Hiruzen noticed something unusual from Kakashi and Guy's reactions, and when he thought about the existence that they both knew and had contact with, he suddenly understood why he felt that the girl looked familiar.
That was Ali, who became famous throughout the ninja world a few years ago and then disappeared inexplicably. Her bounty was as high as billions. Even though no information could be found, she still attracted the attention of the five major ninja villages.
Recalling the description of Ali's abilities in his memory, his face turned grim.
She has a fully elemental bloodline and the ability to use fairy techniques directly. Ninjutsu and sealing techniques are completely ineffective against her.
Even the physical skills...
At the moment of the fight, he felt a chilling feeling as if he was facing his natural enemy, and his sixth sense was frantically warning him that he didn't even dare to take the blow head-on, and he directly used the teleportation technique to evacuate.
Obviously, his sixth sense was correct. Although he failed to completely avoid Ali's palm, he was lucky enough to be only slightly injured compared to the other three.
Ali's original shortcomings had been completely overturned, and coupled with the bloodstains on his eyes that were clearly new...
In an unknown place, Ali becomes more mysterious and difficult to deal with.
The worst-case scenario they had anticipated had already happened...
The person in front of him did not become arrogant and unscrupulous because of the sudden awakening of the powerful blood. Instead, he concealed all his brilliance and kept a low profile, like a wolf king lurking in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to take revenge.
And Konoha, which destroyed Ali's home and relatives, is obviously her first target for revenge!
She should have started planning a long time ago, right?
Now that I think about it, the rise of the Uchiha conservatives seems to have been just seven years ago...
It seems that Uchiha Feng started to contact Shisui seven years ago?
What role did she play in the Uchiha's rebellion? Was she the decision-maker behind it all?
Ha, how ridiculous! Uchiha Feng even has the nerve to say that he considers him his successor. They are both being used, so who is more noble than the other?
Outsiders don’t know that Feng was able to join them after being observed by Quannai in the past two years, so they will only think that Feng’s previous anger was extremely hypocritical.
Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that he had seen through the true nature of the Seventh Elder, and his psychological burden on Shisui was instantly gone.
"You are Ali!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said firmly, his eyes fixed on the area where Ali was, his gaze fixed on her jaw, avoiding Ali's eyes that were obviously from an unknown bloodline.
This is the experience of being a doctor in the ninja world. Never look into the eyes of a bloodline successor of the eye technique easily.
He tried to analyze more information that would be beneficial to him from Ali's previous feedback.
Kai with the Eight Gates open should still be a threat to her, otherwise she wouldn't have used that special bloodline to interrupt Kai's Eight Gates state. As for what Ali said about the omissions in the Eight Gates...
Wouldn't it be enough if she couldn't avoid it?
The essence of ninja is assassination!
Just as he was thinking about how to create an opportunity for Kai, the girl in his sight raised the corners of her lips slightly, forming a slightly sarcastic arc.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's pupils suddenly shrank, and a chill quickly spread along his spine throughout his body.
No, that's not right!
He connected all the events that happened today one by one, and carefully recalled any omissions.
Is Shisui really dead?!
"How is my traitor these days?"
"I didn't expect that kidnapping my apprentice wasn't enough, and they even set their eyes on the bloodstains in our village."
"What exactly is your purpose?!"
Recalling Shisui's eye technique, he remained expressionless, but felt creepy in his heart. He tried to find more clues from Ali's reaction during the conversation.
Ali ignored the questioning from Sarutobi Hiruzen. Sarutobi Hiruzen was an old politician who could turn black into white. She didn't want to engage in verbal battle with such a person.
At this moment, she was chatting privately with Izuna.
Sasuke didn't seem to be waiting for them at school, and he went straight back to the clan territory. She planned to wait for Sasuke to come back and pick him up before leaving.
I just don't know what expressions Fugaku and Itachi would have if Sasuke came back and clearly stated that he wanted to go with them...
Will it turn against you instantly?
Ali recalled what Fugaku and Itachi had done in his memory and shook his head slightly.
They have made their choice. Ali knows Fugaku's indecisive character too well. Although she is strong now, it is far from enough in Fugaku's eyes when facing the strength of the entire village.
The most likely option is to return to the neutral camp and then waver between the two sides like a fence-sitter, which will eventually make both sides lose trust in him.
As for Itachi?
Ali never felt that he loved Sasuke more than the village.
She and Madara had accidentally traveled through the Fourth War before, and Sasuke's condition at the time was proof of that.
Itachi was afraid that his brother would attack the village, but he used Kotoamatsukami on his "favorite" brother...
Is this love?
Isn't it because he regards Sasuke as his own property and has a distorted and abnormal desire to control him?
Ali didn't want to pay attention, but that didn't mean others could tolerate Konoha's people conspiring to smear Ali.
Uchiha Xiangchen stood among the conservative crowd and sneered, "What purpose could the adults have? It's just that our wishes have been responded to by the adults."
"Konoha is openly and covertly targeting and coveting the Uchiha clan. Do you really think we can only wait to be slaughtered and allow you to satisfy your desires?"
"Many of our clansmen never returned after going on missions. Those who died without a complete body, and those who were able to be sent back either suffered burns all over their bodies, damaged Sharingan, or had their eyes destroyed. Seven years ago, we had nearly a hundred elite Uchiha with three magatama, and over the years, we've lost a third of them."
"You know where these eyes are!"
Uchiha Yuxi on the side snorted coldly and said sarcastically: "We are very self-aware. Unlike those elites, we still have the ability to resist and retaliate."
"We just want to live a peaceful life away from war and live in peace with our families. Konoha can't give you this, but Lord Li can!"
"So why should we continue to stay in this village that covets our bloodline?"
These words are also the voice of most conservatives.
But whether it's true or not, the water from the attempt to seize the village's bloodline can't be poured on the village head... Sarutobi Hiruzen looked solemn, his years of political training making him not panic at all: "In recent years, the border has been seriously turbulent, especially the border with the Land of Lightning. The cause was the Uchiha massacre of the Land of Lightning's envoys. It's normal for the Land of Lightning to be jealous."
"The actions of the envoys from the Land of Lightning clearly showed that they had long been plotting against the Uchiha bloodline."
"But it was Clan Leader Fugaku who, despite all the opposition, sent the Uchiha to guard the Land of Lightning to take responsibility for his actions. He directly engaged in guerrilla warfare with the Land of Lightning, resulting in heavy losses. This old man is also heartbroken."
Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, "But it's not just the Uchiha who suffered heavy losses! There are also many civilian ninjas who died at the border! Most of them can't even bring back their bodies!"
It's almost like they're blatantly saying that the Uchiha are being sentimental. Ordinary civilian ninjas have also made great sacrifices and are still silently dedicating themselves to the village, but they are clamoring every day that someone is targeting them...
The ordinary ninjas of Konoha felt that this was the truth and that the Third Generation's idea was completely correct.
The Uchiha people suffered the consequences of their own actions, but they blamed the village, which made the Uchiha people seem more and more unreasonable.
“You! You!!!”
“Nonsense!”
Most of the Uchiha conservatives blushed, but Ali was not surprised by the result.
"Enough, why bother with him?" Ali looked helplessly at Xiang Chen and You Xi, who stood up for him but ended up being pissed off.
"This thing requires evidence." Ali shook his head and took out the arm that had just been torn off from the space. The familiar bandage and half of the sleeve on it made it possible to tell at a glance the original owner of the arm.
Before Danzo could react, Ali tore off all the bandages.
The skin was deathly pale, with a familiar human face on the top. Dozens of three-magatama were still rotating on the entire arm because they had not lost their nutritional supply.
At first glance, it can make people's sanity drop wildly...
Everyone present was stunned by this scene. On the Uchiha side, many radicals who planned to endure for a while immediately became red-eyed.
Some radicals glanced at Uchiha Fugaku who was silent in front of them, looked at each other, made a decision in their hearts, and quietly moved towards the conservatives.
"Danzo! What did you do!" Sarutobi Hiruzen was the first to scold.
Ali watched the scene coldly, thinking that this dog-eat-dog scene was truly classic, and shook his head.
At this moment, Sasuke also hurried to the vicinity of the clan's territory, but before he had time to go out, he saw the arm full of the tribe members' eyes in Sister Ali's hand on the screen.
My mind went blank and my feet stopped unconsciously.
He scanned the screen in confusion, observing the reactions of the people around him. Some were displeased, some were shocked, and quite a few were indifferent. There was even a civilian ninja who seemed to be gloating...
What was most difficult for him to accept was that the anger in his father's eyes was so real, but he had no intention of resisting, and it was so fake that it seemed to be just on the surface.
Itachi just frowned slightly, and the look he gave Danzo was cold for a moment, then quickly relaxed, as if nothing had happened...
It must be fake, right?
Those were the eyes that the tribe cherished so much! And yet they were gouged out alive...
How painful it must have been when they died...
Sasuke still remembered his second grandmother who lived next door to their house and doted on him, and his cousin who had a lot of say in the Hawk faction.
The cousin who would bring him lollipops when he returned from a mission in his memory died suddenly during a B-level mission, and not long after that, the loving grandma Huizi also passed away.
Even though he often went to accompany her after his cousin died, he still couldn't stop his grandmother from leaving.
That was the first time he experienced sadness and felt the plight of the Uchiha in the village. It was also the beginning of his desire to truly help his people so that they would never again suffer any oppression...
Where there is oppression, there is resistance. Although he is young, he really knows a lot. After all, the years of learning in the classroom were not in vain...
At that time, he was very determined and extremely sure that he could help his people out of this predicament...
"vomit……"
So disgusting...
It must be fake...
What do clansmen and relatives mean to my father and brother?
What am I to my father and brother?
Sasuke was confused.
It took him a long time to recover from the feeling of nausea.
He was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "Grandpa, are you there?"
Amidst the layers of tree shadows, a figure suddenly walked out and appeared in front of him.
The man squatted down, and a big hand suddenly blocked his view.
The gentle yet cold tone seemed to contain a hint of heartache for the child in front of him: "If it makes you uncomfortable, don't watch it."
A sour feeling suddenly rushed into the nose, causing both eyes to feel sore.
Sasuke covered the hand that was obscuring the upper half of his face with both hands, slowly but firmly pulling it down and clenching it.
"Grandpa, can you give me a little more time?"
Sasuke's eyes flashed with determination: "I want to confirm something."
