Behind the remote village.
Kanpū stands opposite Shisui.
"From the current situation, everything is in line with my previous guess!"
Shisui looked at Kanpū confidently, "The next step is to find the Shinobi behind this matter!"
"I think so too!"
Kanpū subconsciously followed with another sentence, but then shook his head violently, "Shisui, I think it is better to report it to Sandaime-sama or the Military Police Force!"
'When going out, safety first!'
Kanpū looked serious.
However, Shisui shook his head: "No! All this is just our guess. Without evidence, no one will believe our words. Therefore, we must investigate this village carefully and dig out the Shinobi behind it!"
Kanpū doesn't feel good when he heard this, 'Don't you know that the one we will dig out is Danzō's dirt?'
He was about to stop Shisui, but before he could do that, Shisui suddenly exclaim in a low voice: "Wait! I thought about it, I thought about the evidence!"
"What evidence?" Kanpū startled.
"Yasui Taro's two million ryō!"
Shisui's eyes gradually shined, "After bandits died, these villagers lost their source of livelihood. Even if the bandits left their savings, there would certainly not be much savings, so these villagers shouldn't eat and drink without pressure like they are now!"
"You mean, Yasui Taro's two million ryō is in the hands of these villagers?"
Kanpū feels a bit strange.
'This is not right!'
'According to the law of Naruto World's taking the blame, I immediately dumped the blame on Danzō very smoothly, but if it was Danzō, his goal must be to blacken the Uchiha Clan, let the Uchiha Clan and Sandaime's relationship worsen!'
'That being the case, how could he carelessly distribute the two million ryō he extorted to these villagers with the bandits?'
'Didn't this leave a flaw?'
'Furthermore, with Danzō's unrestricted style of acting for 'Konoha's good', isn't directly silencing the people of this village more in line with his style?'
'Thinking about it this way, it seems that this matter really has nothing to do with Danzō. But if it's not him, who could it be?'
"Kanpū, did you think of any clues?" Shisui looked at Kanpū's thoughtful expression, and asked excitedly.
Kanpū came back to his senses and shook his head: "No, it just doesn't feel right."
Shisui smiled and said: "Don't worry, let's find that money first!"
Kanpū suppressed the doubts in his heart and nodded.
Then, the two of them walked in quietly while the villagers were eating. Soon, the two of them found a lot of money in the bedrooms of several houses.
Shisui was ecstatic when he saw this.
However, Kanpū's heart felt heavy: 'So, in the event this time, Danzō didn't participate at all?'
'Wait!'
'Since Danzō did not participate, I should be happy, why should I need to feel my heart heavy!'
Ten minutes later, most of the villagers had finished their meal and went out for activities. At the same time, the two fainted children outside the village also woke up, and shouting yelled like crazy. Dozens of old and weak women and children immediately gathered towards the entrance of the village.
When Kanpū and Shisui saw that they were discovered, they immediately turned around and ran behind the village. After they group up, they ran straight away.
"How much did you find?" Kanpū asked a little excitedly.
"About 300,000." Shisui said, "What about you?"
"I have… 200,000!" Kanpū started to talk calmly.
Shisui glanced at him and solemnly ordered: "Kanpū, this money must be handed over as evidence."
"I think so too!"
Kanpū hehe smiled and knew that Shisui would say that, so he reported the 500,000 he found to 200,000, 'As expected of the witty me!'
When Kanpū and Shisui left the village, three figures walked out from the depths of the forest next to the village.
The leader is surprisingly…Shimura Danzō!
When Kanpū and Shisui left the village, Danzō received the information of his subordinates, so he followed quietly.
Danzō's right eye was wrapped in white bandages, and his left eye flashed with sinister light, staring coldly at the dozens of people at the entrance of the village.
"Bandit Village."
He waved his hand, and the two white-masked Shinobi behind him took two steps forward.
Danzō tilted his head, said something in a low voice, and finally ordered, "Don't leave any flaws!"
"Yes!"
The two Root's Shinobi bowed down in response.
Then, Danzō formed a hand seal with his hands.
Bang!
Along with a puff of smoke, Danzō's figure has disappeared.
Obviously, what appears here is not Danzō's main body, but his clone.
Then, the two Root's Shinobi formed hand seals with their hands and transformed into Kanpū and Shisui with the Transformation Technique, then, they took out kunai and brazenly killed the villagers gathered at the entrance of the village.
...
When Kanpū and Shisui slowly traveled back towards Konoha, the information that the remote village was slaughtered quickly spread to the ears of the Land of Fire Daimyō's ears in less than two days.
Land of Fire's Daimyō was furious upon learning that it was done by Shinobi, and immediately forwarded the matter to Sandaime.
After receiving this information, Hiruzen didn't dare to be careless, for fear that it was retaliatory action carried out by Sunagakure's Shinobi who infiltrated into the Land of Fire, so he hurriedly dispatched Anbu to investigate.
But a day later, the information returned by Anbu was rather strange.
"According to the distribution of the wounds of the deceased, it is speculated that the heights of the two perpetrators are about 1.5 meters or 1.35 meters…"
Hiruzen frowned, "The marks of the wounds are also not deep, indicating that the perpetrators' strength is not very strong…"
"Hiruzen!"
At this moment, a person knocked on the door and entered Hokage Office.
Hiruzen looked up, and the person who came was Utatane Koharu, one of the Konoha Council.
"Koharu, why are you here?" Hiruzen gently put down the information in his hand.
"It's about the extermination of the village!"
Koharu's tone is stern, "You have received the information from Anbu, right!"
Hiruzen nodded and asked: "What's wrong?"
"Show me the information."
Koharu said resolutely.
Hiruzen hesitated for a moment and then passed the information.
Koharu read it, and showed 'as expected' expression.
"The extermination of the village is indeed related to the Uchiha Clan!" Koharu said harshly.
Hiruzen frowned and said angrily: "Koharu, what are you trying to say?!"
"More than twenty days ago, the Uchiha Clan once escorted a prisoner to the Land of Fire's capital, but an accident happened on the way, and the prisoner mysteriously disappeared …"
Koharu explained the entire process of development that Yasui Taro was blackmailed.
Hiruzen nodded, as he already knew these things, but …
"What does this have to do with the extermination of the village?" Hiruzen asked puzzled.
"The person responsible for the escort is called Uchiha Fukken, a friend of Uchiha Shisui! And just seven days ago, Uchiha Shisui and Gekkō Kanpū left the village!"
Koharu gnashed her teeth while slamming the information on the table, "The height of these two people is exactly the same as in the information! Hiruzen, what do you think?!"
Hiruzen's complexion changed slightly, and he looked at Koharu in disbelief.
Koharu's showed an arrogance as if saying 'I have seen everything through' with the bgm of the famous detective Anime on the background: "The initiator of all this is Uchiha Fukken! He He killed more than a dozen villagers and lied that he killed the bandits who attacked attacked and let the prisoner escape, but in fact, he secretly detained the prisoner and blackmailed Yasui Taro by two million ryō! But he couldn't hide the fact that he killed more than a dozen villagers, so he asked his friend Uchiha Shisui to take care of the aftermath and exterminate all the people in that village!!"
Hiruzen's face became more and more gloomy: "Koharu, you are too extreme!"
"Hiruzen! The truth is right in front of you!"
Koharu's voice was fierce, "Are you going to cover up the murderers?!"
Hiruzen was silent, and his face is gloomy and uncertain.
