Naruto Paradise: An Evil Uchiha's Rise-Chapter 136: The Plan for the Day Lies in the Morning (And on the Bed)

Chapter 136 - The Plan for the Day Lies in the Morning (And on the Bed)

Konoha Village.

Hokage Building.

After driving away the two Konoha Advisors who came to make trouble, Sarutobi Hiruzen urgently convened a Jonin Meeting.

What he didn't expect was--

"Hiruzen, you've really become unscrupulous these days."

Danzo, the very man he was trying to capture, had brazenly appeared in the Conference Room.

Right in front of so many Jonin.

"I've worked diligently for Konoha for so many years, everything I've done has been for Konoha, and you want to convict me based solely on words?"

Originally, he had planned to remain in hiding for a while longer.

But after learning that Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura had been turned away by Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo realized he had to step forward.

Otherwise, before long, he, the leader of the Root organization and the Hokage's assistant for decades, would truly be branded a rogue ninja by that despicable and authoritarian Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Danzo's cold gaze swept across all the Jonin present, then settled on Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"There are so many people here now. If I'm truly guilty, you can state it clearly and let everyone judge to see who is really at fault!"

"Danzo!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was genuinely surprised by Danzo's appearance.

Looking at his former friend and comrade, his face was filled with disappointment.

"I didn't expect you to become so shortsighted. The Iwagakure army is still..."

"I also want to consider the big picture!"

Shimura Danzo also looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with disappointment, staring at the Hokage Robe he was wearing.

"It's you, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who has gone too far! I've been shouldering the darkness for you all this time. Weren't most of my actions based on your instructions? You say they're all my crimes, but in reality, you are the source of Konoha's darkness!"

"Shut up!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face was so dark it seemed like it would drip water.

In the Conference Room, all the Jonin present couldn't help but swallow nervously.

It was the first time they had seen Shimura Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen, the two most powerful people in Konoha Village, in such a state of irreconcilable conflict.

"You say I deceived Uchiha Itachi into exterminating his clan, but it was you who told me to monitor the Uchiha clan, you who were constantly worried that the Uchiha clan would rebel, you who told me the Uchiha were getting out of control, you who asked me to help you find a solution..."

"I told you to shut up, Danzo!"

Damn it. He had clearly said that Uchiha Obito destroyed the Uchiha clan that day. Now that Danzo, who clearly didn't know what he had said that day, had revealed the truth, wasn't it obvious to everyone that he, the Hokage, was lying?

Sarutobi Hiruzen dared not let Danzo continue speaking.

He subconsciously glanced at the nearby Jonin, but everyone's expressions had already turned strange.

Previously, some people believed that Sarutobi Hiruzen was unwilling to give up Uchiha Itachi's Mangekyo Sharingan, so he was protecting him.

Even further back, everyone had only speculated that perhaps Uchiha Itachi had been acting under orders from above.

But now, the speculation had become reality. When they learned that the Uchiha clan's extermination was truly related to the Konoha Upper Echelon, a sense of unease welled up in everyone's hearts.

"Nonsense! The Uchiha clan was destroyed by the Masked Man who caused the Nine-Tails Disturbance, it has nothing to do with you or Uchiha Itachi!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen shamelessly defended himself.

He had no choice but to continue down this path, otherwise the Hokage's prestige would become a joke.

"..."

Huh? Is that how Sarutobi Hiruzen is explaining it?

Danzo immediately realized he had misunderstood.

He subconsciously thought that Sarutobi Hiruzen had also blamed this incident on him, after all, he really did do it...

"Even so, there's also the matter of Orochimaru. It was you who decided to use Hashirama's cells for human experimentation, it was you who wanted to use Wood Release to control the power of the Nine-Tails and prevent the Jinchuriki from losing control and causing another Nine-Tails Disturbance..."

Similarly, Danzo could only continue down this path now.

He had to discredit Sarutobi Hiruzen and vindicate himself today, otherwise, let alone becoming Hokage, his name would appear on Konoha's rogue ninja bounty list the next day.

"Danzo... I ordered the experiments to be stopped long ago. You secretly violated my orders and deceived Orochimaru into kidnapping and abducting orphans from the Village..."

"That was with your tacit approval! Don't say you didn't know!"

Danzo retorted mercilessly.

He even recalled what Sarutobi Hiruzen had said to him back then--

'Wood Release is good, Konoha needs ninjas who can use Wood Release.'

'What, the mortality rate is so high? Forget it, Danzo, let's not do the Wood Release transplant research anymore...'

Later, the experiment finally yielded results.

'Danzo, hand over the Wood Release ninja to me!'

'Why do you ask? I told you not to research it, look at how many people you've killed for this Wood Release ninja?'

'Danzo, I'm taking the person away, reflect on yourself!'

'Tenzō, it's all Danzo's fault for making you suffer, no one will bully you in my Anbu from now on.'

Closing his eyes, Danzo could clearly see the incredibly hypocritical Sarutobi Hiruzen in his memory.

"That's a conspiracy theory, I had no idea you were doing so much behind my back..."

Although he had indeed tacitly approved of many of the things Danzo did, some were not, and some... were beneficial to Konoha, so he had tacitly approved!

But no matter what...

He couldn't let these things be said so brazenly in front of so many people!

He was also doing everything for the Village, wasn't he suffering from pangs of conscience?

"A conspiracy theory? Then dare you say he isn't a Wood Release ninja?"

Danzo pointed to the Anbu ninja behind Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The person was Tenzō, the only successful subject of his Root's Wood Release experiments!

"Now that you've taken all the results, you still want to put all the blame on me alone? I know you're the leaves bathed in sunlight, and I'm the roots buried deep underground, but you were able to become the great and righteous Hokage because I, the willing rotten root, shouldered the filth for you!"

Danzo became more and more agitated.

Thinking of the grievances he had suffered under Sarutobi Hiruzen for so many years, he almost squeezed out a few tears.

"Of course, I could have tolerated all of this, but you insisted on fabricating charges against me, destroying the Root I built with my own hands, and even throwing me into that dark and sunless prison without explanation. You've gone too far, Hiruzen! Which led to this situation today where I have no choice but to..."

"Shut your mouth!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face was terribly ugly.

If he had known this would happen, he would have sent a reliable ninja to guard Danzo back then.

Instead of letting him escape so easily.

It was all his fault for not expecting Danzo to actually disobey his Hokage's orders. Danzo used to listen obediently as long as he was a little stern...

Damn it, Danzo should have just silently accepted the blame, why did he have to jump out?

Did someone change his mind, or...

Did I really go too far before?

No, in order to stabilize Orochimaru and keep Uchiha Itachi as a valuable asset, sacrificing Danzo was justifiable.

Danzo is just too insensible!

"Stop spouting nonsense here, go back to your cell now, and I can consider reducing your sentence! Danzo!"

"Everything I've thought, everything I've done, everything I've done is for Konoha. I am innocent! The one who is guilty is you, the dictator! You are stubborn and self-willed, and you have led Konoha to be surrounded by enemies on all sides for the sake of enjoying power and prestige! It is you who should step down, Sarutobi Hiruzen!"

"Tenzō, tie up this rambling fellow and take him away!"

So he's really making this reckless move for the sake of the Hokage position...

Danzo, you're too disappointing!

Hiruzen Sarutobi had lost the last bit of patience he had for his old friend.

He just wanted to shut his mouth and make sure he never came out again.

"Yes!"

Wood Release: Tree Binding Technique!

Because he was his former superior, Tenzō only used a simple binding Ninjutsu.

This chapter is updat𝓮d by freēnovelkiss.com.

"Everyone has seen it now, this should have been my Wood Release!"

Danzo allowed Tenzō's Wood Release tree branches to bind his entire body, just to show everyone present that the Anbu he had pointed to earlier was indeed a Wood Release user.

"Sarutobi Hiruzen, Konoha is not your personal fiefdom. Even in wartime, I will join other Konoha Advisors to initiate impeachment proceedings against you!"

"Take him away!"

Made a complete mess by Danzo, Sarutobi Hiruzen just wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible.

"No need, I can walk myself!"

"!?!"

Just as Tenzō was about to drag away the bound Danzo, he discovered that the other party was no longer in his Wood Release.

It was as if he had disappeared into thin air.

Not a Shadow Clone, nor a Substitution Technique, what kind of Ninjutsu is this?

"Hmph!"

Seeing Danzo disappear so brazenly, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally couldn't help but slam his hand on the Conference Room round table in anger, shattering it.

Shocking almost all the Jonin present into silence.

But even if they didn't say it, everyone had already removed all the positive filters they once had for the Third Hokage, who was once deeply loved by everyone.

"Ignore this madman who's talking nonsense, next we will discuss how to deal with Iwagakure's invasion..."

After taking several breaths, Sarutobi Hiruzen barely regained a trace of composure, then, with a gloomy face, he began to arrange for everyone to go to Kusagakure and the Land of Fire Border to fight Iwagakure.

----

"Something like that happened?"

Uchiha Kage encountered Yuhi Kurenai on his way to the Cell.

And she was telling him in detail about the various news she had witnessed at the Jonin Meeting, the Female Ninja recounting almost without omission the words of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo.

"So the Third Hokage wasn't being controlled, he was originally... not good."

When talking about Sarutobi Hiruzen, Yuhi Kurenai was excited and full of emotion.

Good news, Sarutobi Hiruzen wasn't being brainwashed and controlled by the Sharingan.

Bad news, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't seem to be a good person either.

"Kage, you should leave the Anbu as soon as possible, such a Hokage isn't worth your..."

After talking about her "encounter" at the Jonin Meeting, Yuhi Kurenai couldn't help but start to worry.

Worrying about the Village's future and Uchiha Kage's future.

"Teacher, we are just ninjas, we don't need to think so much, by the way, what mission did the Hokage-sama assign to you regarding the war?"

Seeing Kurenai so emotional, Kage realized he was off the hook for explaining Samui's situation...for now.

"Temporarily still logistics, but responsible for the logistics of the front line."

Thinking of the war, Yuhi Kurenai couldn't help but sigh.

During the Third Shinobi World War, although she had not yet graduated from the Ninja Academy, she had witnessed many situations on the Battlefield as a reserve force.

It was history repeating itself.

She was fine, but Kakashi and Guy...

One lost his Teacher and teammates in that battle, and the other lost his Father.

She really didn't know what kind of mood they would be in 'revisiting old haunts'.

"Also, Hinata, Shino, and Asuma's Team 10 are with me."

There was no choice, because the attack on Sunagakure resulted in insufficient troops.

Almost all of Konoha's ninjas had to go to the front line, even the Genin who had just graduated from the Ninja Academy.

"Is that so, then I also..."

Since Hinata and the others were going to the Battlefield, he would use his real body this time instead of a Shadow Clone.

However, just as Uchiha Kage was considering this--

"Vice Captain, the Hokage-sama summons you."

An Anbu ninja wearing Anbu clothing and a mask arrived nearby.

"Understood."

After a brief farewell to Yuhi Kurenai, and using the excuse that 'Samui had been transferred to another Cell with more stringent defenses' to dispel Yuhi Kurenai's doubts, Uchiha Kage headed towards the Hokage Building.

He didn't expect the Future Note would give Shimura Danzo the courage to act.

To dare to deal with Sarutobi Hiruzen like this, it was really...

Gratifying.

----

"You've been wronged, Itachi..."

As soon as he entered, Uchiha Kage saw Sarutobi Hiruzen in the Hokage Office talking to Uchiha Itachi.

And Kakashi, who was still wrapped in bandages, was also there.

"No, I..."

Seeing Uchiha Kage walk in, Uchiha Itachi quickly stopped speaking.

Letting Sarutobi Hiruzen take over.

"Kage, you've come at the right time, there's a special mission I need to arrange for you."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was still the same as before in front of Uchiha Kage, with that kind and benevolent smile.

As if nothing had happened at the Jonin Meeting earlier.

"Now is a special period, in order to enhance the Village's combat power, we must recall the former spirits of the dead... or rather, the heroic spirits, to fight against the invaders, so..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen first beat around the bush a bit, then informed Uchiha Kage of the mission.

That was--to search everywhere for the corpses of strong people and bring them back to Konoha.

Whether they were from Konoha or other Shinobi Villages, as long as they were the corpses of strong people, they could be brought back to Konoha, and the more the better.

"Yes."

It's actually this kind of mission...

Uchiha Kage couldn't help but think of Kushina asking him to help revive Nohara Rin before.

"But Hokage-sama, using the Impure World Reincarnation, such a forbidden Ninjutsu, is it a bit..."

Kakashi, who had been silent all this time, finally couldn't help but say a word of opposition.

Because if they were to summon the dead strong people, his Father, Hatake Sakumo, the Konoha White Fang, would definitely be the first to be summoned.

But he didn't want to disturb his Father's soul.

It was undoubtedly a desecration, a practice without any moral bottom line.

"Kakashi, in order to prevent Konoha from being destroyed by Iwagakure, this is a necessary measure. I know what you're worried about, but I can promise you that unless Konoha is in the most dire situation, I will not disturb your Father."

Speaking of Hatake Sakumo, Sarutobi Hiruzen still had some guilt in his heart.

After all, it was because he, as the Hokage, didn't protect his subordinates back then.

"Hokage-sama, I've recently heard some very bad rumors in the Village, saying that my Father was..."

The rumors about Sarutobi Hiruzen that Danzo spread had finally reached Kakashi's ears.

"That's nonsense, I was the one who least wanted your Father to commit suicide, and besides, I can let your Father 'live' right now to confront you, if you don't believe me..."

Although this matter may have been done by Danzo, it really had nothing to do with him, the Hokage.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was sure of that.

At most, he was just being inactive back then.

"Sorry, I was overthinking it, there's no need for Hokage-sama to be like this."

Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen's serious face, Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief.

But even so, after witnessing Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo at the Jonin Meeting today, Kakashi no longer had the relaxed feeling he used to have when facing the Third Hokage.

Is it the Hokage's darkness, or the Village's darkness?

He couldn't help but think of his Teacher, if it was the Fourth Hokage, Konoha would definitely not be in such an embarrassing situation now.

"Kakashi, I'll leave the Kannabi Bridge to you. You are experienced... a former hero, don't let the Village down."

This important bridge was rebuilt during the previous peaceful period, and now it has once again become Iwagakure's logistics route.

"Yes... I understand, Hokage-sama."

Kannabi Bridge, the shadow that accompanied him throughout his life in the last Shinobi World War, he didn't expect to encounter it again this time.

But he couldn't blame the Third Hokage for issuing this order.

After all, he was indeed very experienced in blowing up this bridge.

But...

"I can complete it alone, let Sakura, Naruto, and Sasuke all stay in the Village."

He didn't want to make the same mistake as before.

He didn't want to create another... Obito.

He was a ninja who truly had PTSD.

---- ----

"Digging up graves?"

Samui saw the culprit sitting next to her as soon as she woke up, reaching his hand into her Quilt, causing her chest to become even more bulging.

But rather than scolding this pervert first, Samui was more curious about the mission Uchiha Kage had arranged for her.

What's the use of digging up dead people's graves?

Wait, could it be...

Quickly recalling the dead people Orochimaru summoned during the Chunin Exams, Samui immediately understood.

Konoha was planning to build an army of the dead to deal with other Shinobi Villages.

Also, I will probably be leaving Konoha soon, so this time you can't be perfunctory about spreading the word about the Paradise Sect.

The Paradise Sect, let's start with a model in Konoha first.

Coincidentally, so many people died in the Sunagakure battle, their relatives must want to see the dead resurrected.

"What exactly... do you want to do?"

Finally pushing the hand out of the Quilt, Samui rolled her eyes, then quickly got out of bed and started putting on her clothes.

This guy was still as unrestrained as before when it came to ravaging her body.

"You'll understand when the time comes."

There was no choice, this proud and fierce Samui, he hadn't touched her for several days, Uchiha Kage really missed her.

That's why he unconsciously reached out his hand.

"You..."

Being a riddle person again.

Samui blushed slightly, and after putting on her clothes with her back to him, she finally faced the teenager who had been lewd to her early in the morning with a normal expression.

"But, if you're leaving Konoha, then... do I have to go with you?"

"No, you stay in Konoha."

Uchiha Kage looked at the towering Female Ninja in front of him with a playful expression.

Then he continued to reach out his hand.

"Of course, if you want to take the opportunity to escape Konoha while I'm gone, or secretly let your Disciple go behind my back, you can do whatever you want."

"I won't! Don't worry!"

Biting her silver teeth tightly, Samui couldn't help but get goosebumps all over her body when she thought of the terrible experiences of the past few days.

If she was tortured by Yuhi Kurenai again, she would really get mental illness.

Also, can this bastard stop touching her, these clothes are pilling!

"Okay, then if you can really be well-behaved, help me promote the Paradise Sect, and take care of Karin and Temari, I might be able to reward you when I come back."

"Reward?"

Samui looked coldly at the hand below.

When will this guy be done...

"For example, letting go of another one of your Disciples, or making someone stronger."

"Really?"

Hearing this, Samui immediately stopped paying attention to that hand.

"Working hard for me will be the best decision you'll ever make."

Uchiha Kage was drawing her a big cake while stroking Samui's body.

"Now, let's start with morning exercises."

After pressing the tall and plump Female Ninja who was standing in front of him to sit on the edge of the bed, Uchiha Kage looked down at her slightly open mouth.

The plan for the day lies in the morning.

The skills he had finally cultivated before couldn't be allowed to become rusty.

"You... You fiend!"

Even if she was stubborn, Samui had already eaten the cake that Uchiha Kage had drawn for her.

For the safety and freedom of her Disciple, and to become stronger...

She had to endure.

"I just like seeing you look so unwilling."

"Don't be smug, I'll get stronger sooner or later and then kill this guy who only knows how to ruin me!

----

"Orochimaru, you're finally back!"

After arranging the defense against Iwagakure's invasion, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was worried about Danzo and the others in the Hokage Office, finally received some good news.

Although the main force was still on the way, Orochimaru, the hero who had conquered Sunagakure, had finally returned to the Village at his urging.

"Old Man, you specifically had me rush back, what's the matter?"

Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen was troubled by Danzo, Orochimaru was also troubled by the 'Masked Man' on the Battlefield.

"Could it be because of Danzo..."

Because of his eyes that were left in Konoha, Orochimaru had also heard about Danzo angrily confronting Sarutobi Hiruzen at the Jonin Meeting.

"Of course we need to deal with ungrateful guy like Danzo, but now... there's something even more important I need to ask you to do, and only you or Jiraiya can do it."

"What is it?"

Only him and Jiraiya could do it?

Orochimaru was a little curious.

"Go bring back Tsunade, and have her return to the Village to take over the entire Medical Team, only in this way can we reduce unnecessary casualties."

Although the operation in Sunagakure was successful, the death rate was too high, if it continued like this, Konoha's Army would run out of living people.

This was something Sarutobi Hiruzen could never accept.

So Tsunade had to return to the Village!

"Just get me someone else to bring along, and Tsunade will be begging to come back to the Village with me."

Orochimaru already had a plan in mind for dealing with Tsunade.

"Who?"

"Uchiha Kage."
