Seeing Obito escape, Hyuga Kaze didn't feel any regret. Although his palm strike just now wasn't powerful enough, it was still enough to give Obito a hard time.
Moreover, he wasn't really keen on killing Obito, and too much plot change wouldn't benefit him either.
Black Zetsu, Madara Uchiha, and even Hagoromo Otsutsuki—there are a whole bunch of old culprits that Obito needs to push the plot forward and lure out.
Hinata Kaze casually tossed the white Zetsu arm in his palm into the training room space, then continued to stand with his hands behind his back, observing the surrounding environment.
"Lord Danzo?"
The surrounding ANBU ninjas were filled with surprise and doubt, wondering what was going on in front of them.
Suddenly, another Danzo Shimura, accompanied by several Root ninjas, rapidly approached from a distance. "Damn it, who are you to dare impersonate me!"
The newcomer's appearance and attire were exactly the same as Shimura Danzo's before, only his aura was even colder and darker.
The kneeling Root ninjas sensed something was wrong, but dared not get up, and could only observe the two Danzos back and forth.
Danzo snorted coldly and formed hand seals without hesitation, activating the Tongue Calamity Seal against the Root ninja closest to Hyuga Kaze.
The poor Root ninja let out a miserable scream and fell to the ground, emitting a painful howl.
Danzo Shimura's fierce gaze swept across the surrounding Root members, and everyone within his sight fell silent, turning to him and kneeling on one knee.
Danzo turned his gaze to Hyuga Kaze, "In the name of assisting the Hokage, I order you to dispel the transformation jutsu, surrender, and explain your identity!"
Hyuga Kaze sighed helplessly. The Tongue Disaster Removal Technique was a bit complicated, and he couldn't crack it in a short time. Otherwise, he would definitely make Konoha experience the same story of the real and fake Danzo.
Without delay, Hyuga Kaze raised his hand, creating a gust of sand and dust. A few seconds later, the dust settled, and Hyuga Kaze returned to his Uchiha Tajima attire.
At Danzo's command, all the Root ninjas stood up and surrounded Hyuga Kaze.
Hyuga Kaze remained unmoved, looked at the ground beside him, and shouted, "Come out, Itachi! Your hiding place is exposed before these eyes!"
Uchiha Itachi silently emerged from underground, staring intently at Hyuga Kaze.
On the other side, Obito, having recovered his body, emerged from the Kamui dimension and, together with Danzo and Itachi, formed a pincer movement against Hyuga Kaze. His eyes were icy, and his entire body emanated a dense killing intent.
Danzo spoke first, "Itachi, what's going on?"
Uchiha Itachi didn't even turn his head, continuing to keep a watchful eye on Hyuga Kaze.
"The Uchiha clan members I was in charge of, except for Uchiha Mikoto, are all dead. This person also took away the bodies of Uchiha Mikoto and Fugaku. I suspect that his Mangekyou Sharingan is of the space type, and he and the supplies he looted have been hidden away."
After hearing Itachi Uchiha's words, Danzo Shimura was shocked. Having witnessed Minato Namikaze's experience, he knew how difficult spatial abilities were to deal with.
Inside the training room, dozens of Uchiha were consumed by rage. Even though they already knew that Itachi had sided with the village against their clan, hearing it again only fueled their fury.
If it weren't for the shadow clones stopping them, some people would have rushed up and killed Mikoto, and chopped Fugaku's body into pieces.
Even when stopped, they couldn't help but curse the Fugaku family with vicious words. Mikoto was heartbroken and ashamed as she listened, and tears fell silently.
Ignoring Itachi for now, Hyuga Kaze said to Obito:
"You claim to be Uchiha Madara. Whether that's true or not is another matter for now. I remember Madara once controlled the Nine-Tails and used it as a summoning beast. Plus, your appearance is very similar to the mysterious person who attacked the Fourth Hokage and released the Nine-Tails. So, you're the one who caused the Nine-Tails' chaos."
"I am Madara Uchiha, and the Nine-Tails Night was just a little game for me," Obito insisted stubbornly, showing no concern for the tragedy he had caused.
Itachi remained calm. He had considered this possibility when he first met the mysterious man, but he hadn't taken action to quell the Uchiha clan's rebellion.
I had planned to join their organization after tonight and investigate the matter thoroughly, but unexpectedly, an even more mysterious Uchiha clansman appeared and revealed everything.
Of course, Itachi, who was deeply concerned about the safety of Konoha, would not regret this. He only regretted that he had not investigated the information properly and caused unnecessary trouble.
Seeing that Itachi and Danzo had no reaction, Hyuga Kaze couldn't help but click his tongue in admiration, "What a cold-blooded and ruthless guy. He knew that the Uchiha clan was innocent, but for the sake of so-called village peace, he slaughtered the entire clan without any mercy, not even sparing the old man who sold pancakes."
After a pause, Hyuga turned to the Root members and Danzo who had gathered around him and said slowly, "Another one, who used Itachi Uchiha to massacre the Uchiha clan, sent people to gouge out eyes, collected corpses for experiments, and even installed Shisui Uchiha's eyes on himself. How dark!"
Danzo sneered disdainfully, "Everything I've done is for Konoha!"
After saying that, Danzo waved his hand, signaling Root to begin their attack.
A barrage of shuriken and kunai hurtled towards Hyuga Kaze!
Hyuga Kaze appeared more than twenty meters away in a flash. He had been talking nonsense with Obito and the others just now to film it and play it together later, not because he was afraid of them.
"You evil bastards, under the guise of creating the Nine-Tails' rampage, have oppressed the Uchiha clan for years. Now you've actually joined forces with the real culprit to slaughter the Uchiha clan, one of the founders of Konoha. In the name of Uchiha Tajima, I hereby declare you dead!"
The anger and disappointment in Hyuga Kaze's tone were so genuine that Obito and the others began to doubt whether the person before them was truly Uchiha Tajima. What secret technique had he used to survive until now, only to intervene when he saw the Uchiha clan in crisis?
