Naruto: I am the villain

The third day after the Uchiha clan decided to rebel.

Konoha Village,
Danzo's 'root' headquarters.

Passing through the long and narrow secret tunnel, the current Hokage Hiruzaru Sarutobi of Konoha Village walked quickly into the secret base of 'Root'.

He was full of doubts, obviously very puzzled by the sudden invitation from Danzo that he received today.

Although he and Danzo have been companions for decades, since he ascended to the position of Hokage and Danzo established "root", the two of them have gradually become estranged due to their different political opinions.

Not only were swords drawn in Konoha's daily high-level meetings, but they never communicated even in private.

But today Danzo suddenly invited him to root's headquarters, saying that he had something important to discuss, which really made Hiruzaru Sarutobi a little confused.

What the hell is Danzo doing?
Except for Konoha's regular high-level meetings, he would never discuss anything with me. What happened today?
Is it
Hiruzaru Sarutobi was standing at the door of the No. [-] meeting room of 'Gen' thinking, suddenly he had some bad premonition.

At this time, a deep voice came from the meeting room.

"Sarutobi, we're at the door, why don't you come in?"

"Danzo? So you are in the conference room."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi pushed open the door, and saw Danzo sitting alone in the chair at the head of the meeting room.

He walked in slowly, and randomly chose a place to sit at a distance from Danzo.

"I thought you didn't come, and I wanted to wait for you at the door."

"Just kidding Sarutobi, this is not your Hokage building, this is 'Gen', I am the owner of this place, why didn't I come when you are here?"

Danzo tapped on the table coldly, although he said something joking, but there was no intention of breaking the joke in his tone.

In front of an old friend like Hiruzaru Sarutobi, he had a gloomy expression, and he didn't even bother to wear the usual fake smile on his face.

And Hiruzaru Sarutobi saw that Danzo's tone of voice was so indifferent, his face, who had pretended to be polite before, also turned dark.

"Danzo, did you come to me today just to quarrel with me? Then I'm sorry I can't accompany you! As the Hokage, I still have a lot of things to deal with."

"Hehe. Our Hokage-sama is really busy! Doesn't he even have time to listen to a few words from me, a high-level Konoha?"

"Don't stay in that yin and yang, Danzo! If you don't say anything, I'll leave! I can't get used to this gloomy place like yours!"

"Am I gloomy here? Hahaha. But Sarutobi, I hope you know that if Konoha wants to be strong, in addition to you, Hokage standing in the sun, you also need those of us hiding in the shadows and buried deep in the soil." 'Root' ah!"

Seeing Hiruzaru Sarutobi's face was quite impatient, Danzo stopped talking.

He restrained the expression of displeasure just now, and suddenly changed the subject.

"Sarutobi, do you know what happened to the Uchiha clan recently?"

"Uchiha? What can the Uchiha family do?"

"Huh? Sarutobi, don't tell me that you, Hokage, don't know about the little tricks the Uchiha clan has been doing for a while!"

Danzo's sharp eyes swept directly to Sarutobi Hiruzen, only to find that Sarutobi Hiruzen was also looking directly at him.

The eyes of the two met in the air, and sparks exploded in an instant.

"Although Uchiha's smart guys act very low-key, it is impossible to completely hide what they did from the village! Sarutobi, since I have all the news, I don't think you, Hokage's source of information, will compare I'm less!"

"Danzo, just say what you want to say! Do we still need to guess riddles like this when we talk?"

"Hmph! That's good! Sarutobi, then I'll just say it straight!"

Danzo stroked his right eye, which was tightly wrapped in gauze, from an injury he suffered on a mission two years ago.

His tone of voice was extremely stern, just like his attitude towards the Uchiha clan.

"I got information that the Uchiha clan has secretly held many gatherings in the past few days, and the participants are all high-level members of the clan, and their whereabouts are strange, as if they are afraid of being discovered by others."

"Danzo, what do you mean by that?"

"You don't need to say what I mean? Can't you, Hokage, understand what I mean?"

"Humph!"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi coughed a few times while covering his mouth, as if he was very dissatisfied with Danzo's thorn in every word he said.

"I have received all your information, and I know what you mean that the Uchiha clan may be plotting to rebel, but based on these one-sided information, can I directly convict the Uchiha clan?"

"Of course not, but itachi Uchiha, the spy of the Uchiha clan that you instigated before, placed in Konoha's high-level. Isn't he just going to come in handy this time?"

"Uchiha Itachi? Danzo! How do you know Uchiha Itachi is Uchiha An's spy inserted into Konoha's high-level? You also know that he was instigated by me?"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi's icy eyes suddenly became a little colder, and his fists that were originally loose were unconsciously clenched.

"Danzo. How dare you install your people in Anbu! Are you really lawless? Do you still see me as Hokage?"

"Why are you so angry, Sarutobi!"

Facing the suddenly furious Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo's expression was as indifferent as before: "Don't tell me that I don't have you in my 'root'! We are just each other! And now we can It's not the time to discuss these things, what is imminent now should be how to solve the hidden dangers of the Uchiha clan?"

"You! Hey! That's all. What did you mean by Uchiha Itachi just now? Although we have all received news that the Uchiha clan has been restless during this time, I didn't get the news from Uchiha Itachi. Judging from the news he has received in the past few days, there is nothing unusual about the Uchiha clan!"

"That can only show that Uchiha Itachi is not loyal enough to you! Or...he is so stupid that he doesn't even notice that his family is plotting such a big event!"

"Enough Danzo!"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi slammed the table and stood up: "What do you want to do when you mention Uchiha Itachi? Say what you want to say! I really have nothing to talk about with you unreasonable guy !"

"Sarutobi, you are still so restless, even after so many years!"

Danzo stood up from his seat, not to be outdone, and looked at Hiruzaru Sarutobi: "Since Uchiha Itachi, the son of the Uchiha patriarch, is now for your use. Such a useful chess piece, why don't we make good use of it? What about him?"

"Danzo, what do you mean?"

"It's very simple, order Uchiha Itachi to report the Uchiha clan's rebellion to the village! I believe that as the son of the patriarch, what he said is very convincing? Then we can justifiably wipe out the Uchiha!"

"You are really crazy Danzo!"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi supported the table with both hands, and said word by word: "Only based on those bits and pieces of news, we still can't make a conclusion on the secret gathering behavior of the Uchiha clan these days, how can we directly sentence them to death?" ?”

"Hehehe Sarutobi, it really is your old style again!"

Danzo sneered and clapped his hands, his eyes did not hide his mockery of Sarutobi Hiruzen.
