Chapter 262 Afterwards!
The night can cover up all the guilt. When the sun rises again, the Hokage is still the glorious Hokage. The guilt of slaughtering compatriots and betraying the village will be borne by Uchiha Itachi alone.
Ichiraku Ramen Restaurant.
"Uncle, please give me two servings of miso char siu ramen."
The woman in white tightened her hat and said in a low voice, while motioning another girl in a black robe to sit down. The two looked like a pair of sisters.
"Welcome, please wait!"
The hand-typed uncle greeted enthusiastically, and did not bother about the two people covering their faces. After all, this is the world of ninjas. Covering your face is really normal.
As for their true identities, they don't need to worry about it as the owner of a ramen restaurant. Naturally, there will be an Anbu to find out their identities.
Ten minutes later, the noodles were served. The two did not say a word and ate the noodles in silence. And around the two people, the diners naturally talked about the big things that happened last night.
"Hey, hey! Have you heard? The Uchiha clan was exterminated last night. I heard that only Uchiha Sasuke survived."
The first person to divert the topic, his face still had a trace of disbelief, after all, the Uchiha clan has many strong people, and is known as the largest clan in Konoha, the largest ninja village.
"No way! Isn't the Uchiha clan known as the largest clan in Konoha? How could someone destroy this clan silently."
"Of course it's true, the murderer is Uchiha Itachi, who is also from the Uchiha clan, and the surviving Uchiha Sasuke is his younger brother. I heard that the Hokage has issued a wanted order, listing him as an S-level rebel."
"S-level rebel! At the age of 13, he became an S-level rebel, this is really crazy! The last S-level rebel in Konoha was Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas."
When hearing this, one of the Konoha ninjas couldn't help but sigh. This is the first time that an S-class rebel ninja of this age has happened in the entire ninja world, not to mention Konoha.
"Have you forgotten? There is also the captain of the Fourth Hokage's guard team?"
Another ninja next to him disagreed with his statement and reminded him with a pout. Liu Yu killed the daimyo of the Land of Fire at the age of fourteen and defected from the village with the entire Kusanagi clan. This "feat" is no less than Uchiha Itachi's massacre of the Uchiha clan.
"Oh oh!"
After being reminded by his companions, this Konoha ninja quickly reacted. However, when it comes to this topic, the other people are obviously not very interested, and obviously do not want to discuss this issue more.
"By the way, as a member of the Uchiha clan, how could Uchiha Itachi massacre his compatriots? And since he can kill even his own parents, why did he leave Uchiha Sasuke?"
At this time, the question of a Konoha ninja once again returned the question to Uchiha Itachi.
"You ask me, how do I know? I'm not one of those crazy people in the Uchiha clan."
""
While listening to the conversations of the people around him, Uchiha Izumi's body was obviously shaking uncontrollably. Just last night, everyone in the clan was killed, and the one who caused all this tragedy was Uchiha Itachi, whom she loved.
Such a drastic change appeared in front of the girl, and the girl seemed unable to accept it for a while. Seeing this scene, Liu Yu sighed in her heart. In the end, only time can heal this kind of thing. Then Liu Yu reached out and comforted Uchiha Izumi, who was shaking all the time.
Because she had also experienced the extermination of her family, she could roughly understand Izumi's feelings. The only difference is that there is no figure like Itachi in the Kusanagi clan, which is a blessing in disguise for the Kusanagi clan.
Feeling the warmth coming from Liu Yu's palm, the girl's trembling body gradually calmed down and gradually stabilized her emotions.
In the dark underground space of the Root headquarters.
A member of the Root organization half-knelt in front of Danzo and presented a statistical list of the corpses of the Uchiha clan.
Danzo flipped through the records expressionlessly, then waved his hand to signal his subordinates to leave. After his subordinates left, Danzo's face changed drastically, turning pale and blue, and he held the scroll tightly in his hand.
The Uchiha clan's corpse count last night was abnormal. All the Uchiha clan children between the ages of four and eight disappeared. In addition to the abnormal behavior of Fugaku reported by the Anbu before, Danzo had reason to suspect that this group of Uchiha clan members had successfully escaped from Konoha before the incident.
Although it was very confusing how these children escaped from Konoha, it was not impossible with the precedent of the Kusanagi clan. In addition to the Uchiha children aged four to eight, there was also an Uchiha clan member named Uchiha Izumi who opened the three-magatama Sharingan and disappeared.
In addition to these Uchiha clan members who should have become corpses, there was another thing that made Danzo feel extremely upset. That was when his men went to the police force headquarters to harvest Sharingans, they found that those eyes had been taken away in advance.
What made Danzo even more angry was that in this operation, about ten members of the Root Organization who were responsible for harvesting Sharingan were killed, and all the Sharingan in their hands were taken away. Because of this, the number of Sharingan that Danzo finally got was greatly reduced, and Danzo's plan to make a fortune from Sharingan by taking advantage of this incident was thwarted.
Through the analysis of the above events, it can be confirmed that at least one person outside the plan participated in this genocide against the Uchiha clan.
This series of accidents made the operation to annihilate the Uchiha clan only half successful, but this half-successful plan made Danzo feel more uneasy.
Danzo knew the potential of the Uchiha clan's bloodline very well. Hatred can maximize the potential of the Uchiha clan. The thirty or so Uchiha clan members outside are a bomb hidden in the dark for Konoha. Danzo has reason to believe that the person who took those children away knew the truth about the genocide of the Uchiha clan, and it is even very likely that this person was the one who did it to the root ninja under his command. If this person told the truth to the Uchiha clan members and made them hate Konoha and attempt revenge, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Thinking of this, Danzo couldn't help but flash the white figure in his mind. Danzo has reason to suspect that Liu Yu participated in this incident, and she also has the strength to participate.
"Kusa---Ryu---Yu----"
Danzo gritted his teeth and whispered. At this moment, in Danzo's heart, the threat of the Kusa clan led by Kusa-Ryu was far greater than that of the Uchiha clan, where even a few people of the Kai-eye clan could not be found. After all, the threat of the Uchiha clan came from the future, while the threat of Kusa-Ryu was real.
Thinking of the last time the Root elites faced the helpless stalemate of Ryu, Danzo felt a little scared. At this critical moment, the third generation actually ordered to remove his position as the Hokage's assistant and let the Hokage's direct Anbu to strictly monitor himself and his subordinates.
PS: In the conversation with the third generation after Itachi slaughtered the clan, it can be learned that the third generation knew the existence of the masked man and Akatsuki.
