The Road to the Throne of White Eyes

Chapter 117: A Pool of Mud

In the forest outside the Hyuga clan's territory, Hinata Feng pressed on step by step, demanding that the Hokage investigate and deal with the attack on him on the spot. His words were full of reason and logic, and Sarutobi Hiruzen was a little confused for a moment, not knowing how to solve the problem.

At this time, the patriarchs and senior leaders of the major families present watched coldly how Sarutobi Hiruzen responded. They even looked at each other meaningfully from time to time, exchanging secret information.

In reality, they knew exactly what roles Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo had played in tonight's events. They were all seasoned veterans, and had seen all sorts of things before. Did they really think Danzo and his men's tactics were so secretive?

It’s just that the people who were targeted before were the Uchiha clan. That clan was too arrogant and extreme, and had little communication with other clans.

Moreover, the Uchiha family was indeed highly suspected on the night of the Nine-Tails. Coupled with the status of the Hokage and the Hokage's assistants, all the major families in Konoha were blind and pretended not to see it.

But they had only thought that the village would suppress them more harshly, and they had never expected that Sarutobi Hiruzen and others would be so cruel. The Uchiha family's final genocide also frightened these families.

After all, for these bloodline families and mystical families, the continuation of the family is the first priority, and the village, glory, and bonds are secondary.

As a result, just as the Uchiha clan's territory was almost demolished, the Konoha high-level officials began to target the Hyuga clan.

This made the various families wonder, after Uchiha comes Hyuga, so who comes after Hyuga?

Thinking of this, these families couldn't help but feel sad for the other party.

The air in the forest seemed to freeze into ice. Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned at Hinata Feng's sharp questioning, and Danzo immediately filled in the gap.

"How dare you ask for on-site verification so rudely? Do you know the Anbu's procedures?

You are so anxious, have you forged something?

What are you implying and who are you referring to in your words and between the lines?

Or do you want to shake the foundation of Konoha and overturn the order of Konoha!"

Shimura Danzo's face was full of viciousness, and he spit out a long string of non-stop questions like a poisonous snake.

Hinata Feng was not at all intimidated by Danzo's overwhelming offensive. Instead, he refuted them one by one with sharp words. Every word accurately hit Danzo's soft spot, making him furious.

On the side, Sarutobi Hiruzen silently smoked his pipe and watched the fight between Danzo and Hinata Feng. From time to time, he cast meaningful glances at the Anbu members in the corner, as if conveying some kind of order.

Not long after, an ANBU member ran over and interrupted the tense argument between Hinata Feng and Danzo.

"Hokage-sama, we double-checked and found a member of Konoha among those assassins!"

"What? Someone from Konoha actually assassinated a comrade in the village. Who would do such a thing? It's unforgivable!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's face was filled with shock and anger, as if he knew that his ancestral grave had been dug up.

"It's Ryoma Aburame, a member of the Root. There are a few others who are also suspected to be members of the Root."

Logically speaking, this should be a good time for Hinata Feng to advance, but he was suddenly stunned. Shimura Danzo would certainly not miss this opportunity, and immediately cooperated with the Anbu and Sarutobi Hiruzen to make the trick come true.

Upon hearing this, Danzo's face suddenly changed, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It turned out to be this bastard. I have always felt that there was something wrong with his Will of Fire. Some time ago, I punished him by putting him in solitary confinement for his incompetence.

He and his team have not appeared during this period. No one expected that he would do such a thing.

Together with the Kumo ninja assassins, they assassinated the Hyuga clan in the village. Aburame Ryoma must be a spy. He has betrayed the village's trust!"

Danzo spoke in a stern voice, as if he wanted to pour out all the anger and resentment of being betrayed.

All around, members of the major families were shocked, and then they all looked at Aburame Zhiwei with different expressions.

This elite of the Aburame clan, known for his calmness, wore sunglasses even in the dark, but at this moment he seemed unable to completely conceal the fluctuations in his heart, and there was something a little strange about him.

"Hehehe"

Hinata Feng seemed to come to his senses, but he did not continue to pursue. Instead, he expressed his emotions with a disdainful sneer and expression.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was like a deaf and blind person, oblivious to the reactions of these family members and Hyuga Kaze.

However, when it comes to the evil deeds of the Konoha traitors, he transforms into a ruthless judge, his eyes revealing unquestionable firmness and majesty, and every word he says is as firm as a mountain.

"Since this matter involves spies and traitors, it must be handled by the Anbu. Konoha will not let a traitor go, nor will it wrongly accuse any comrade.

As for Danzo, since there are Root members among the attackers, you should temporarily isolate yourself and wait for the results of the Anbu's investigation.

Chief Feng, please hand the camera over to the Anbu. Once the Anbu's investigation results come out, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation!"

This was the first time Sarutobi Hiruzen addressed Hinata Kaze as clan leader, which was his concession.

His voice and expression were extremely serious, carrying an unquestionable power, and that momentum was always conveying a message.

Hand over the camera, and we will acknowledge your position as the clan leader, and the matter ends here. If you refuse to hand it over and insist on broadcasting it live, then be prepared to fight to the death!

After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen has been the Hokage for decades, and he still looks very impressive when he gives it his all.

On Hyuga Kaze's side, the real person had already returned home and was reflecting on his actions tonight. He didn't want to dwell on it any further. Anyway, no matter how much evidence he produced, it would eventually be seen as fabrication and slander in the mouths of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo.

So, he just laughed it off, saying that he hoped the Anbu would investigate the matter soon and give justice to the Hyuga clan, and handed the camera to the Anbu.

Anyway, the camera had been shattered from the inside by the Baguazhang power he used. What he actually used to record was the black-tech camera. It would be funny if he gave this blank space to the secret service and let them find out that there was nothing inside.

"Everyone, the situation tonight is complicated. I hope you won't spread it to anyone. The Anbu will investigate it thoroughly.

It's already late, why don't we go back and rest, and leave the investigation to the Anbu experts."

The matter was resolved, and Sarutobi Hiruzen breathed a sigh of relief. A kind and gentle smile appeared on his face again, and he invited everyone in the field to go home and rest.

Hinata Feng looked at Hiruzen who was smiling,

I couldn't help but complain in my heart, you have turned everything into a mess, your strength is comparable to that of a blender.

Not bothering to say hello, Hinata Feng led the tribe towards their homeland. As they passed by crooked trees, he sighed meaningfully, "Look at you, how come you're growing more and more twisted!"

These words made the people who were leaving look puzzled, and Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo's mouths twitched.
