Chapter 757: The three elders abstain, and Orochimaru also abstains!

~3 min read 479 words

Time slowly passed.

A few days went by in the blink of an eye, and Uchiha Jin had become completely famous.

This was understandable.

After all, the Third Raikage's reputation was too great!

And as Uchiha Jin, who killed the Third Raikage—and in a fair environment at that—it was hard for his reputation not to rise.

More importantly, Uchiha Jin was too young.

Only twelve years old!

This was what the major ninja villages feared most; after all, youth represented infinite possibilities.

It was imaginable.

As long as Uchiha Jin didn't die prematurely, then by the time he reached adulthood.

He really might become the next Hashirama Senju!

The Leaf was the same.

However.

While other ninja villages felt fear, awe, and wariness, in the Leaf, it was skepticism.

Rumors were spreading everywhere that Uchiha Jin had caused trouble.

He was suspected of being a Cloud spy!

Otherwise, why would he help Cloud ninja?

Even.

To help Cloud ninja escape, he had provoked the Rock and almost ignited a war.

Clearly.

This was Danzo's doing!

It was the exact same routine as the one used to deal with Sakumo Hatake last time; Danzo was even too lazy to come up with a new one.

Of course, this was understandable.

After all, in essence.

Danzo didn't expect to succeed at all; he was just dealing with Hiruzen Sarutobi.

In fact, that was indeed the case.

Just as Root began to act, the Uchiha began their counterattack.

Without any delay.

It was as if they had discussed it beforehand.

"Uchiha Jin, a Cloud spy?"

"Nonsense! Absolutely impossible!"

"They are the proud Uchiha; even if the entire Leaf betrayed, the Uchiha's pride would never allow it."

"I think so too. If you say the Uchiha are arrogant, I have nothing to say, but the spy talk is pure nonsense."

"Uchiha Jin killed the Third Raikage; would a spy kill their own Kage?"

"Protecting Cloud ninja was just keeping his word; this actually proves that Uchiha Jin is a person who values credibility and keeps his promises!"

"And more importantly, if he had let the Rock kill the Cloud, and the Rock grew stronger, wouldn't they just come to kill our Leaf ninja next?"

"From this point of view, Uchiha Jin is even more of a hero."

"Agreed!"

"..."

In the Leaf, there was much discussion.

Everyone.

Was basically talking about this, divided into two factions and arguing.

Of course.

Overall, the Uchiha had the upper hand.

Because Danzo never intended to take down the Uchiha through this.

Therefore.

This storm lasted less than a week before it began to cool down and die out.

Especially with the convening of the Five Kage Summit, the simultaneous response of the four major ninja villages, and the fact that peace was truly within reach, it instantly topped the Leaf's trending list. ===== CHAPTER 758 =====
