Chapter 241: The Konoha high command has set their plan: Uchiha Jin must die!

Danzo and the others furrowed their brows slightly.

Although they were filled with doubts, they still picked up Nara Shikaku's letter and began to read through it quickly.

A long while later, silence.

They understood Sarutobi Hiruzen's line of thinking and also felt that what Nara Shikaku said was, in fact, correct.

The current struggle with the Uchiha had effectively become a quagmire.

Even if they could win in the end, what would be the point?

"Shikaku is right; I agree with this plan," Mitokado Homura spoke first. "Let the Uchiha have their laugh for a while; we can settle the score with them after the upcoming war."

Utatane Koharu looked slightly conflicted.

Clearly.

She knew in her heart that Nara Shikaku's idea was the right one.

As a high-ranking official, one cannot be limited by the gains or losses of a single city or territory.

But, she was truly unwilling!

Before this, who among them had ever taken the Uchiha seriously?

A bunch of brainless fellows—couldn't they be molded or crushed as they pleased?

And now?

The rise of Uchiha Jin had directly changed that.

"Uchiha Jin, that bastard!"

"We can concede to the Uchiha this time, but that guy must be eliminated."

"He is too dangerous."

"Even if we have to pay a price, we must kill him!"

Utatane Koharu spoke in a cold voice.

Yes.

As a qualified leader, she naturally understood what was light and what was heavy.

So, even if it was humiliating, she accepted it.

Except for Uchiha Jin!

This Uchiha made her feel uneasy. His strength was secondary—he was just another Mangekyo Uchiha, and it wasn't as if they hadn't seen those before.

The most important thing was Jin's level of thinking.

Honestly.

Even now, she still couldn't figure it out.

He had never received elite education, was mediocre at the Ninja Academy, and she had never seen him study specifically.

So, why?

How exactly did this guy learn such strategies and methods?

The Uchiha's Mangekyo already put them under pressure, and now they discovered this Uchiha actually possessed a mind and calculating ability similar to the Nara clan...

Damn it.

Is there any way for people to live?

"Hmm, Koharu is right!" Mitokado Homura said coldly. "Uchiha Jin must be killed!"

"Even if we have to pay a price, in my opinion, it is worth it."

"If we let him continue to live, the impact on the village will be too great."

"I suggest that even if we have to offer more benefits, we should send this guy to the front lines as soon as possible, preferably having him 'accidentally' break into the core territory of Cloud Village."

"Whether he encounters the Raikage's son and the Eight-Tails jinchuriki, or the Third Raikage A, even if we can't kill him, we can at least cripple his Mangekyo."

"This matter cannot be delayed!"

Yes.

Through this incident, they had fully realized how troublesome Uchiha Jin was.

Now, they had only one goal.

Even if the war had to be fought more arduously, they had to find a way to kill Uchiha Jin.

Danzo let out a cold snort at this.

"I said long ago that keeping the Uchiha around is a disaster."

"When we got rid of the Senju clan, we should have gone all out to wipe out the Uchiha."

"Even if our reputation suffered a bit, there are plenty of ways to restore it afterward."

"You all just wouldn't believe me!"

"And now? Regretful, aren't you?"
