Chapter 228

He was in a good mood.

He had tested the Uchiha and weakened Danzo's Root.

Pretty good!

And just as he was about to get up and go home to sleep, the office door was opened.

Koharu Utatane, Homura Mitokado, and Danzo Shimura.

The three arrived together!

"Hiruzen, we must be careful of that Uchiha Jin."

"Yes, Hiruzen, he is definitely a dangerous person."

"The Uchiha are already troublesome, and now that someone who understands political maneuvering has emerged, we must find a way to suppress him."

"..."

The three spoke one after another.

Indeed.

Uchiha Jin's methods today had truly frightened them.

The Uchiha were already troublesome; with this one added, wouldn't they be even harder to deal with in the future?

They were anxious!

Even Danzo slammed the table.

"Hiruzen, why didn't you listen to me?"

"We had Uchiha Jin surrounded just now; if we had paid a small price, we could have definitely killed him on the spot."

"Why?"

Indeed.

Danzo was very angry.

The losses to Root this time were too great, making him unable to accept it.

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked calm.

He glanced at the three of them faintly before saying in a low voice: "Did the Uchiha commit any crime? What reason do you have to kill them? Do you really think those ninja clans listen to us?"

"This..." Danzo shut his mouth.

Homura Mitokado nodded: "Hiruzen's consideration is correct; Danzo, you are too impulsive."

"Although we cannot kill Uchiha Jin, we cannot let him off easily either." Koharu Utatane said with a cold tone: "Hiruzen, I suggest we send Uchiha Jin to the battlefield."

"Wherever it is dangerous, let him go there."

"Anyway, Uchiha Jin has already awakened the Mangekyo; suppressing him further won't have much effect."

"His strength lies in the Mangekyo."

"And every Uchiha's ocular power is limited; let's use the battlefield to consume his ocular power!"

"I suggest we transfer him to the Grass Country front!"

Following Koharu Utatane's words, the whole room fell silent.

Then, a moment later.

Both Homura Mitokado and Danzo Shimura nodded directly.

This method was not bad!

However.

After Hiruzen Sarutobi finished listening, he said in a low voice.

"Hmm, the idea is good."

"But under what name?"

"Don't forget one thing: when Uchiha Jin was promoted to Elder, he automatically withdrew from the ninja sequence."

"So under normal circumstances, the village has no right to conscript him."

"As a Uchiha Elder, even if you go to ask him, he has the right to refuse."

"As for threats, squeezing, or fooling him, you saw it for yourselves today; Uchiha Jin is not an easy person to fool."

"For such a person, we can only use inducements, not force!"

"If you want him to go to the battlefield personally, you must give him enough benefits."

"Even if he goes to the battlefield, Uchiha Jin has the right not to accept orders from the front-line command headquarters."

"As a Uchiha Elder, even on the front lines, he has the power to make his own decisions."

"Paying such a high price, have you considered if it's really worth it?"

"Think it over carefully, and then we'll continue talking."

"..."
