Root Base.

Danzo stood silently. He was reticent, as if he was one with the surrounding dark environment.

Not too far away from Danzo, there were Root Ninjas wearing masks in the outer circle. Everyone was standing quietly on the spot.

In the huge underground world, he was the king here.

Step, step, step...

A series of footsteps sounded at this time, and then a middle-aged man with brown hair and black clothes walked over.

"Did you find anything?"

Danzo slowly raised his lowered eyelids, his gaze focused on the middle-aged man with brown hair in front of him.

This man was called Yamanaka Akira.

He belonged to the Yamanaka clan, but now he was not a member of the Yamanaka clan but a ninja under Root.

Because he was under the Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal.

"Yes."

Akira nodded and reported.

"According to the last memories of the two guards, they only saw Tetsu. At first, they did not know that Tetsu wanted to leave Konohagakure, but they were suddenly bound by Tetsu's shadow. Before they could react, they had already lost their life. So, they did not collude with Tetsu." Akira said.

"What about Tetsu?" Danzo asked.

"Tetsu's memory is too complicated. I just found a few key points. I will report to Danzo-sama what I find first and then continue to search." Akira said in a low voice, looking a little unconfident.

"Speak." Danzo only said one word. He did not speak much, but there was enough pressure.

"There are currently four key points that can be confirmed."

Akira immediately began to report in an orderly manner.

"The first key point is that Tetsu was killed by a ninja who was not very old. The ninja who killed him used water ninjutsu. Based on his movements, he should be at the level of Jonin Ninja. Most importantly, the ninja said that his name was Uchiha Fugaku."

"The second key point is that Tetsu suddenly ran away overnight because he received a secret letter "The list of names has been leaked" from Yuta. From here, it can be seen that Yuta is still alive, but Tetsu does not know where Yuta went."

"The third key point is that Tetsu is the mastermind behind the three floating corpses. He had already guessed that the missing people case was related to Danzo-sama, so he made a big fuss through public opinion to transfer the right on the case back to Konoha Military Police Force. As for whether Tetsu has colluded with Konoha Military Police Force, I still need some time to investigate carefully."

"The fourth key point is that in Tetsu's memory, the list of the remnants of the old era is the same as 99 of the names you provided me. Only two names are not in Tetsu's memory. One is Kyo, the other is Tesaki, but I am not sure if these two people are communicating through other code names."

"This is the information I can confirm right now!"

"I need more time for the remaining details."

Akira summarized all the information he could confirm. He had to admit that this person was indeed very powerful to be chosen to become a Root member.

In just half a day, he had already obtained a lot of important information.

"Very good."

Danzo nodded. His expression did not change at all. It had not changed for ten thousand years, but one could still hear praise from his tone.

"Your conclusion is very accurate. Next, you have to pay attention to two points. One is information about Yuta. Where this person may go, and the other is the relationship between Tetsu and Uchiha." Danzo explained.

"Yes." Akira immediately nodded.

"As for the details of the missing people case and the two extra people, these are all unimportant matters. The main point is Yuta and the Uchiha Clan," Danzo said.

"You understand, right?" Danzo confirmed again.

"Understood," Akira answered again.

"Go."

Danzo said indifferently. As soon as he finished speaking, Akira had already left, preparing to go back and carry out further exploration.

After that.

Danzo raised his head and looked at the dark wall.

If his vision could penetrate the wall. His eyes were focused on the position of the Hokage office.

"The Uchiha clan."

Danzo muttered softly. Although there was no evidence in his heart, he had already listed Uchiha on the list of people related to Tetsu.

"Uchiha Akaru, that guy deliberately reported the missing people case to Sarutobi. He has already stood on the opposite side of me."

"If I'm not wrong, Yuta should have been protected by the Uchiha Clan. It was because of Tesaki's death that Akaru found out that the list of the rebel organization had been leaked, so he asked Yuta to send a message to Tetsu."

"The last one is the Uchiha who use water ninjutsu..."

"Hahaha!"

Danzo could not help but laugh at this point. His laughter was full of ridicule. His left eye, which was exposed outside, flickered with understanding as if he had seen through everything.

"In the entire Konohagakure, who doesn't know that your Uchiha clan is good at fire ninjutsu? You just have to use water ninjutsu and then say that you are an Uchiha and have not dealt with Tetsu's corpse. Isn't it obvious that you want to tell me... that Uchiha was being framed!"

"Do you think that I, Danzo, am a fool?"

"Do you think that because I think there is something fishy about this matter, I will think that someone else is framing Uchiha?"

"Are you kidding me?"

"The way you wash away your suspicions is too insulting to my intelligence!"

"This was done by your Uchiha clan!"

Danzo had already confirmed in his heart that the Uchiha clan was working together with the remnants of the old era. It was even possible that the clan leader of the Uchiha clan was using the remnants of the old era.

"Such a clan has to be guarded against. Tobirama-sensei was right. This clan is a clan that can turn evil at any time. Who knows when it will start a coup!"

"If we wait until that time comes, everything will be too late. I must take precautions!"

"Mm..."

"It's time to give the Uchiha clan more power."

Danzo began to plan silently. Giving the Uchiha clan power could temporarily numb the clan, making them feel comfortable.

This way, they could delay the rebellion to a great extent. After all, this was not the right time to deal with the Uchiha clan.

Danzo had been in a high position for a long time, and he knew very well that as long as the clan felt comfortable, the sound of the rebellion would not be the main theme.

That was why he thought so.

However, when the Uchiha clan was comfortable, it could indirectly make others feel uncomfortable.

The tumor could be eradicated at that time.
