The Uchiha Clan was also on high alert at this time, with a large number of Uchiha Clan ninjas beginning to settle the elderly, weak, women, and children of the clan. Many of those who had attended the clan meeting still thought that Clan Head Uchiha Fugaku had finally gone to war with the Konoha higher-ups.
Especially when someone reported information that Susanoo had been sighted in Konoha Village, everyone was very excited, believing that Uchiha Zhi Shui had successfully escaped and returned to reinforce them.
The arrogance of the Uchiha Clan lay in the fact that even though Uchiha Fugaku had explained that Uchiha Zhi Shui and Uchiha Itachi had gone missing after encountering a mysterious person named Tao Bai Bai, many people in the clan still believed it was a Conspiracy by the Konoha higher-ups.
After all, over the past few decades, their clan had been framed many times for various trumped-up reasons, and at this point, they no longer believed the answers given by the Konoha higher-ups.
"Mom, what happened to the village? Where's big brother?"
The equally young Sasuke Uchiha was hidden at home by Uchiha Mikoto. He saw his mother, who rarely wore her ninja uniform and combat attire, and felt very uneasy. He hadn't seen his older brother for several days, and usually at this time, Uchiha Itachi would be by his side.
Uchiha Mikoto naturally knew that the disappearance of Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Zhi Shui was not the doing of Konoha. The commotion outside at this moment likely meant that Konoha was truly under attack.
Uchiha Fugaku had not yet returned, and she had to protect Sasuke.
Boom!
Terrifying Wind Release erupted from a corner of the Clan, instantly destroying several wooden houses. Several Uchiha ninjas guarding that area were also instantly blown away, their lives unknown.
Dozens of Root ninjas, dressed very similarly to the Hokage's direct Anbu forces, appeared coldly at the edge of the Uchiha Clan.
The next moment, dozens of shuriken flew sharply from the air, colliding with each other mid-air to change angles, causing several Root members to instinctively dodge, only to be struck by the shuriken.
A man with Short Hair and brown hair, wearing Konoha combat armor over an Uchiha tight-fitting combat suit, appeared in front of Danzo and others, leading a group of Uchiha Clan ninjas.
Uchiha Yashiro looked at Danzo, who made no effort to conceal his identity, and killing intent arose within his scarlet Three Tomoe Sharingan.
"Danzo, at a time like this, you're not going to support the Hokage, but instead attacking the Uchiha Clan?!"
Uchiha Yashiro found Danzo's insane actions incomprehensible. In his opinion, no matter how great the conflict between the Konoha higher-ups and the Uchiha was, it shouldn't erupt at such a moment.
He had originally received Uchiha Fugaku's orders to return and dispatch clan ninjas to support the village, but unexpectedly, he encountered Danzo's attack.
He made a signal with his right hand behind his back, instructing someone to inform Uchiha Fugaku and search for Uchiha Zhi Shui, while his heart grew colder.
Does this Konoha truly still need to be saved…
At this moment, most of the Uchiha Clan's elites were outside the Clan, with only him, a Three Tomoe Jonin, remaining. He knew it would be difficult to stop Danzo and so many Root ninjas. Uchiha Yashiro slightly lowered his stance, preparing to fight to the death.
Danzo coldly looked at the other party. He couldn't be bothered to explain anything to such people. In his view, most of the Uchiha Clan were individuals who wasted their bloodline talent. Something like the Sharingan could only unleash its greatest value in his hands.
Not just the Uchiha, even Hiruzen Sarutobi wasted the Hokage's authority. If it were him, he would have long since resolved the Uchiha problem and made Konoha even stronger.
Danzo's eyelids drooped, and his hands emerged from his sleeves. Unlike Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado, although they were all Hokage advisors, Danzo had always engaged in dangerous work in the shadows. He had never slackened in combat and was constantly seeking power.
"A mysterious person attacks Konoha, and the Uchiha Clan suffers a massacre. This is the end of today's story."
Whoosh.
A barely audible landing sound echoed as a man with red hair and a pale face appeared to Danzo's right. He wore a Konoha forehead protector, but his body was clad in a somewhat eye-catching loose red and white robe.
Danzo frowned. He remembered this fellow who called himself Le Ren, who had always followed that 'Heaven's Will'.
Uchiha Yashiro also sensed this person's identity.
Le Ren expressionlessly watched Danzo, who indeed chose to engage in internal strife and seize benefits at such a time. He could no longer tolerate this person's narrow-mindedness and foolishness.
All this time, for the sake of faction reputation, he had been quite polite and respectful to these Konoha higher-ups. Now, he finally no longer needed to hide his temper as a Reincarnator.
"I say, old man, is your head full of water or something?"
"Are you still dreaming of being Hokage when you can't even see the situation clearly?"
Danzo was startled. He could barely connect the man cursing in front of him with the previously gentle, elegant, and powerful new Konoha ninja.
Le Ren covered his forehead. He didn't like Tao Bai Bai, or rather, he feared Tao Bai Bai. That was a guy who, even from a distance, made him feel he couldn't contend with him, a guy he knew he should stay away from after just one encounter.
He acted wildly, possessed terrifying strength, and almost every step of his growth was paved with the lives of other powerful Reincarnators.
Fifth Element's Kai, the notorious E Tong, Jie Bo, the terrifying Flame Demon…
All those who encountered Tao Bai Bai, without exception, ultimately became scarlet drop cards.
He truly didn't understand why, at a time like this, Danzo would actually come to the Uchiha Clan to try and snatch Sharingan.
Do you think by equipping a few more Sharingan you can reverse Konoha's defeat today?!
This time, he didn't need Miss Heaven's Will to explain; he already knew that the Konoha faction was probably going to suffer a major defeat, and the reputation he had accumulated previously would soon be wasted.
Le Ren was in an extremely bad mood. A light flashed in his hand, and two katana, one long and one short, appeared. As Chakra flowed, Chakra blades appeared on both swords.
This rare metal, capable of conducting Chakra, was extremely expensive even in the space.
At this instant, Danzo's heart also sank. This Le Ren also seemed to be proficient in Chakra nature transformation.
In the sky, the Magic Carpet slowly landed at the same time.
The combination of Catherine and Ran successfully reunited once again, and they also appeared on Danzo's other side.
Catherine saw the current scene and, with a thought, immediately spoke:
"We received a request from Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Zhi Shui to help the Uchiha Clan resist the attack from the Konoha higher-ups!"
Uchiha Yashiro didn't know what was happening within the Reincarnator faction, but he could sense that these individuals, who had originally stood with the Konoha higher-ups, seemed to have betrayed them.
The next moment, Catherine directly raised both hands, and two heavy machine guns floated in the air, aiming at the Root members.
Tatata...
A torrent of steel instantly poured out.
Being suppressed by Tao Bai Bai for these past few days had filled Catherine with anger.
Ran sensed Catherine's thoughts and let out a sinister laugh, his figure flashing as he lunged towards Danzo.
Le Ren was furious to see the two of them snatching kills, but he chose not to attack them. Instead, his figure blurred into an afterimage, and the two terrifying blades, extended to nearly two meters due to the Chakra blades, instantly whipped up a storm of blades, creating a bloody massacre within the Root ninja ranks.

On the Hokage Rock in Konoha, Hiruzen Sarutobi no longer evaded, facing the tall figure standing barefoot on his Hokage Rock. The opponent's feet merely gripped the ground, and the rock already showed signs of cracking.
"Old friend, this time I'll have to rely on you to stand by my side…"
He reached out, and the equally indestructible Enma transformed into the Adamantine Staff once again, landing in Hiruzen Sarutobi's hand. Hiruzen Sarutobi spun it twice, tossed the Adamantine Staff into the air, and formed hand seals. Five Shadow Clones instantly appeared.
Five nature transformations simultaneously appeared on the five Shadow Clones, and the hand seal speed was extremely fast.
Bai Cangshu stood about twenty meters from the opponent, his hands spread open, and the purple fluctuations on his body swayed like flames in the wind.
He knew what the Third Hokage wanted to do, and that… was exactly what he wanted him to do.
Hurry and use that move, Third Hokage. You know very well that besides that move, you can't kill me…
