Naruto: Dual System Power At The Beginning

The people present were also shocked by this slap. It seemed that Lord Danzo was truly enraged, and the Uchiha clan was now actually acting so recklessly.

At this rate, this situation would likely escalate into direct confrontation between both sides.

Ryosuke looked at Danzo's furious expression, completely unafraid. The Mangekyō Sharingan in his eyes became even redder.

He had a feeling that as long as he inputted chakra into both eyes, he could further evolve his Susanoo and land a few solid punches on this guy.

And now, even if he were to make a move against the opponent, there was nothing to hesitate about. With his current strength, there was probably no one in all of Konoha who could be his match.

Even if all the present clan leaders combined their forces, they still might not be able to defeat him.

Moreover, the dozen or so Sharingan embedded in Danzo's arm were undeniable proof of his crimes. Even if he killed Danzo right now, no one would be able to convict him.

No one would dare to plead for Danzo.

If anyone continued to argue irrationally, he would just eliminate them all together.

He looked at Danzo with a face full of disdain and said, "What an arrogant statement. Disrespecting you as an advisor means betraying Konoha? Someone who doesn't know better might think that you, the advisor, hold more power than the Third Hokage himself."

The expressions of the people present all changed.

In truth, the Third Hokage had indeed granted Danzo great authority, to the point where in some matters, he even bypassed the Hokage's decisions and acted on his own.

The Third Hokage's face darkened upon hearing this. How had Danzo ended up with more authority than him?

He was merely an advisor. If it weren't for needing him to handle certain affairs, just the fact that he had dared to attack him in the past would have been enough reason to take him down directly.

Danzo was even more furious upon hearing this. How dare this guy try to sow discord between him and the Third Hokage?

Looking at those Sharingan eyes, he felt a genuine threat. This guy actually wanted to attack him.

Did he really think that defeating Kumo's forces would be as easy as fighting within Konoha's stronghold?

The village had thousands of shinobi. They could definitely wipe out the Uchiha clan.

And right now, only these two Uchiha leaders were here.

As long as he eliminated them, the Uchiha clan would be left leaderless, and the difficulty of eradicating them would decrease dramatically.

The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, and his heart grew even more ruthless. He glanced at the Third Hokage.

"Third Hokage, as well as the two advisors, you have all seen this. The members of the Uchiha clan are treating Konoha's high-ranking officials with such disrespect—it is clearly an act of rebellion. We must work together to capture these two Uchiha immediately!"

The two advisors looked at the furious Danzo, who was actually asking them to join him in attacking the Uchiha.

Although they had been teammates with Danzo since their Genin days, this move was far too extreme. Did he not see that the other party had already revealed two pairs of Mangekyō Sharingan?

Not to mention that there was also that taijutsu expert—was this really someone they could afford to fight?

They had seen Susanoo before. Back then, when Uchiha Madara used Susanoo, its power could split mountains and seas.

Even though the Susanoo before them was smaller, the fact that the young Uchiha Ryosuke had already unlocked it meant that Uchiha Fugaku could likely do the same.

It was clear that these were not opponents that could be easily subdued.

If they couldn't take them down quickly, and the rest of the Uchiha clan arrived, it would lead to a full-scale civil war in the village, tearing Konoha apart.

They did not support such a reckless move.

Even the Third Hokage spoke up to reject it. "Danzo, calm down. There's no need to escalate this to such a level."

"Uchiha Ryosuke, you should also stop. After all, Danzo is acting for the sake of the village's development."

Now was not the time to fight—if a battle broke out, it would inevitably be a great war. Even he could not guarantee that he would emerge unscathed from such a conflict.

At this moment, the village's combat power might no longer be a match for the Uchiha clan. It was a pity that his three students, who all possessed extraordinary strength, were not in the village.

Orochimaru, the most gifted among them, had even defected.

Jiraiya had also left, wandering the world.

Tsunade had distanced herself from the leadership and even developed hemophobia. Who knew what her current state was?

If they wanted to deal with the Uchiha clan, they had to recall Jiraiya and Tsunade.

Only then could they contend with the Uchiha.

They might even have to cooperate with Orochimaru, the traitor.

Otherwise, with the current strength of the Uchiha clan, what could the village's leadership possibly use to counter them?

Even though he was known as the strongest Hokage, when facing the god-like Susanoo, his own strength might not be enough.

Hearing the Third Hokage's words, Danzo was speechless. Once again, such weakness—missing an opportunity.

Now that there was such a perfect excuse, he still refused to act against the Uchiha. Why had the Second Hokage chosen such a person as the Third Hokage?

If this continued, the Uchiha would only grow stronger. By then, they would be impossible to suppress, and the position of Hokage would inevitably fall into the hands of the Uchiha.

He was so furious that he wanted to berate the Third Hokage, but turning against him now was even more inadvisable.

Ryosuke, on the other hand, had no intention of attacking Danzo immediately. He was more interested in seeing what other accusations Danzo had gathered against them.

Fugaku, of course, was well aware of the situation unfolding before him, but he calmly continued flipping through the complaint documents.

He was not the least bit concerned about Danzo's threats. Ryosuke had already awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan—what was there to fear?

His Mangekyō Sharingan surely housed some terrifying ocular techniques. That was his assumption.

After all, Ryosuke was a once-in-a-century prodigy of the Uchiha clan.

Even though he had demonstrated exceptional talent in taijutsu, his aptitude for the clan's Kekkei Genkai was still astonishing.

As he flipped through the documents, he pulled one out. "Here's an interesting one. This person, Akira Konoda—I remember he got drunk, caused a scene, and tried to attack someone."

"But instead, he was severely injured by the person he attacked, and now he dares to file a complaint? The Uchiha clan already showed great leniency by not holding him accountable back then."

"Danzo, you even dare to use such complaints to slander our Uchiha clan? Truly despicable."

Danzo retorted angrily, "And what's wrong with that? The drunkard didn't even manage to harm anyone, yet he was beaten into a critical state. And the attacker wasn't even punished?"

"Ridiculous! This was clearly excessive self-defense. He could have just chosen to run away—would he have still ended up injuring the drunkard then?"

The other clans present remained silent.

This punishment seemed both reasonable and questionable. After all, the drunkard was indeed beaten, but the supposed victim had suffered no injuries whatsoever.

Ryosuke laughed coldly upon hearing this. "Danzo, you are truly shameless—defending the assailant like this. Do you not realize that a drunken attacker has no sense of reason?"

"Do you all expect to just run away whenever you're attacked? And even if you try to escape, is there any guarantee you can outrun them?"

"I believe that when facing an attack, every clan head here would choose to fight back rather than flee."

"This is simply human instinct. Just because the attacker was injured, does that mean he wasn't at fault? In the end, it's all his own doing. If he hadn't started the fight, he wouldn't have gotten hurt."

"If we punished the victim instead, then we would be siding with the attacker."

"Maybe Danzo has some kind of illness that makes him support criminals, but the Uchiha clan will never make such a choice!"
