If one of the best bloodline limits in the ninja world were to completely disappear from Konoha Village, the loss would be too great.

Even if Uchiha Sasuke cannot be ruled out as a suspect, some people do not want to involve him in this matter.

Of course, there are more reasons than just these.

No one thought that Uchiha Sasuke would know the truth of that year.

The possibility of this matter being leaked to anyone other than the parties involved is very small.

The only Uchiha Itachi who went through the whole process died at the hands of Sasuke.

The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was in charge of everything, died three years ago, and Danzo Shimura, who did it himself, could not escape the fate of being killed.

Without any evidence, how can you casually suspect a high-ranking official and powerful jonin of Konoha Village?

Even if Shuimu cannot clear the suspicion, at this critical moment, no one wants to cause trouble because of this matter.

The Five Kage Tournament is imminent. If a serious internal conflict breaks out in the village at this time, it will be a bigger scandal than the murder of Danzo Shimura.

If possible, no one wanted to put their suspicions about Shuimu openly.

As for each ninja's defense, I'm sorry, there are no consistent laws and regulations in the ninja world, and there are no court judges or juries to convict a particular ninja.

As long as a ninja was suspected, arrest and trial were common methods.

What is an alibi? How useful is it to a ninja?

Especially Mizuki, there are not many Konoha ninjas who can distinguish between his real body and his clone.

For Mizuki, who knows the Flying Thunder God Technique, it only takes a blink of an eye to carry out horrific crimes thousands of miles away.

Possessing mobility that is unimaginable to ordinary people, it also means that no matter who is killed, as long as the murderer is not found, Shuimu will not be able to prove his innocence.

Apart from resorting to torture, it is basically impossible to get a convincing answer from Shuimu.

As for using coercive measures against Shuimu?

Well, there’s no hope even if Jiraiya comes back.

As long as he uses the Flying Thunder God Technique, Mizuki will be able to roam the entire ninja world.

Use sealing techniques to seal the barrier space?

Mizuki is one of the best masters of sealing techniques in the ninja world, so it is extremely difficult to make him fall into his trap.

Even if it really happened, no one might dare to believe it, for fear that Shuimu was playing some trick again.

"what to do?"

Without finding evidence, it is certainly impossible to take action against certain people.

Mizuki acted as if nothing had happened, still working and living as usual in the village, occasionally teaching Team 8 and his disciple Haruno Sakura some little things.

"I haven't seen him practice at all, how come he suddenly became so strong?"

It’s not like there weren’t records of Mizuki using the training grounds, but he was usually so busy with work and missions that he couldn’t spare the time for practice.

I basically spend my free time with my family.

This level of diligence is really not worth mentioning among excellent ninjas.

Nara Shikaku waved his hand to stop everyone from talking nonsense:

"We also got intelligence. According to eyewitnesses far away, there was a blazing black fire at the battle site, which covered the entire mountain like a hill. The trees also grew wildly, as if they were fighting against the strange black flames."

"Amaterasu, Uchiha Itachi's secret technique, who can use it now?"

Mizuto Menen naturally knew about this unique eye technique that Uchiha Itachi had once revealed.

"If you don't master it yourself, only ninjas who can seal the fire can use Amaterasu Black Flame. Among the known ninjas, only Jiraiya-sama and Mizuki can do it..."

Although Jiraiya and Danzo Shimura were not on good terms, he would not go so far as to kill his mentor's classmates. Moreover, at that time, Jiraiya was still in the Land of Lightning.

This evidence naturally deepened the suspicion of Shuimu.

"There is another person whose suspicion cannot be ruled out, Uchiha Sasuke. He was the last person to come into contact with Uchiha Itachi. Even if Uchiha Sasuke did not awaken Amaterasu on his own, it is possible that he obtained this technique from Uchiha Itachi. It is not impossible to do this!"

Whether it is the transfer pupil technique or the use of the transcription seal, this goal can be achieved.

The one who spoke up to defend Mizuki was Hinata Hiashi, who had remained silent the whole time.

Although Nara Shikaku's usual calm analysis could not find any loopholes, it was indeed somewhat evasive. The Hyuga clan leader could not help but make a few excuses for Mizuki.

"Indeed!"

No matter how small the opportunity is, we cannot ignore it.

Since Nara Shikaku didn't know the secret of the Uchiha family, he naturally tended to believe that it was Mizuki who did it.

But Tsunade didn't see it that way.

"Let the Anbu investigate this matter carefully first. Do not act rashly before the Five Kage Conference, and do not spread the news at will, so as not to attract attention."

"All right!"

Nara Shikaku, who served as both an elder and often acted as a secretary, closed the folder in his hand.

"Then I'll have to trouble the Anbu to pay more attention."

The matter will not be left unresolved, but it will probably be difficult to find the real culprit.

After the Five Kage Conference, the Shinobi Alliance was formed and they would care even less about this matter.

The feuding ninja villages had to suppress their hatred and fight side by side. The conflicts within a village were nothing more than trivial matters.

When the war breaks out, corpses will be everywhere. A person's life, even that of a big shot like Danzo Shimura, will be nothing more than a worthless background board.

Only when you are alive can you have the possibility of continuing to be paid attention to. When you die, you can only become a memory that others sigh about.

No one would be obsessed with taking revenge for an irrelevant, annoying dead person.

As for the Wood Release technique just mentioned, everyone tacitly agreed not to talk about it anymore.

If it were really brought to the table, it would definitely be another huge mess.

Even if you want to investigate, it can only be done in private and should never be said in public. Otherwise, it will definitely be an embarrassing scandal.

…

The two suspected murderers are in a sealed underground room.

"I didn't expect that Mizuki-sensei had such a great place!"

"A cunning rabbit has three burrows. When you get old, you will always have wild thoughts!"

Mizuki didn't have the patience to explain his own mental journey, and Uchiha Sasuke might not be very interested either.

"How are your eyes?"

"It's OK!"

Uchiha Sasuke answered calmly.

“Really?”

Shuimu was too lazy to expose the boy's intention to show off, so he counted on his fingers.

"According to what you just said, how many times have you used the Mangekyō Sharingan? It seems like you've almost caught up with the number of times Uchiha Itachi has used it over the years!"

Using Amaterasu and Kagutsuchi at will, Susanoo collapsed several times, but he was still able to see it, which was already the result of Uchiha Sasuke's extraordinary talent.
