Sarutobi Hiruzen was instantly dumbfounded.
Looking at Danzo, who had vomited blood and fainted directly, the question he originally wanted to ask was instantly choked back into his throat.
Is Uchiha Jin dead? How many people were lost?
Damn it.
Couldn't you explain it to me before fainting?
But, sigh!
After a helpless sigh, Sarutobi Hiruzen still spoke: "Squad A-3, take Elder Danzo to the hospital. Squad A-1, go to the Forest of Death. I want to know who Root was fighting and what the specific casualties are."
The two Anbu squads immediately knelt on one knee.
Immediately after.
One squad carried Danzo towards the hospital, while the other squad headed towards the Forest of Death.
In response to this.
Sarutobi Hiruzen just quietly watched the two Anbu squads leave, then looked back at the Root base that was burning frantically. For a moment, he didn't know whether he should extinguish the fire or not.
There was no helping it!
Who knew what was in the Root base? If the Anbu extinguishing the fire discovered something they 'shouldn't' see...
Thinking of this, he shook his head.
He couldn't afford this price!
After all, he brought Anbu this time, not the death warriors of the Sarutobi family, so he naturally dared not take this risk.
So.
At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen could only pray that Danzo had really killed Uchiha Jin!
But, unfortunately.
Squad A-1 returned very quickly, their eyes full of horror.
"Hokage-sama, so many dead people!"
"Many people died on the edge of the Forest of Death. Visually, there are at least three hundred people, most of whom are ronin and missing-nin. We even found many corpses dressed as Anbu."
"The specific number and identity need further verification!"
"Also, a huge crack appeared in the Forest of Death. It is temporarily unclear what kind of ninjutsu caused it, but it is highly likely related to the huge black giant that suddenly appeared in the Forest of Death just now."
The Anbu knelt on one knee and began to report in detail.
Yes.
The figure of the black giant in the Forest of Death just now was too big. Even though they were far away from the Forest of Death just now, they could still see that black giant more than thirty meters tall.
Let alone them, probably even the entire Konoha could see that thing!
In response to this.
Sarutobi Hiruzen closed his eyes and pondered, his brain spinning rapidly.
Although the death toll was indeed shocking, as long as that dog Uchiha Jin could be killed, the sacrifice of these people would be meaningful.
So.
Is that guy Uchiha Jin dead or alive?
It's all Danzo's fault for making such a fuss. Couldn't you tell me the truth before fainting?!
In that case...
I could also consider how to handle the next steps based on the specific situation!
But, fortunately.
When he sensed the battle at the Root base just now and led the Anbu to rush over, he also specially sent his confidant to the Uchiha clan grounds.
If Uchiha Jin really survived, he would know later.
Ten minutes later.
An Anbu member walked over from a distance and whispered to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"Hokage-sama, Uchiha Jin has returned!"
Hiss!
Hearing this answer, Sarutobi Hiruzen's scalp tingled.
After giving Danzo so many people this time, Uchiha Jin still survived?
Almost in an instant.
He knew his plan was ruined, and the Uchiha would be even harder to deal with next!
Thinking of this, he immediately asked: "How is Uchiha Jin's condition? Did you see him injured or blind?"
There was still a glimmer of hope in Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart.
In response to this.
The Anbu member spoke respectfully: "No, Uchiha Jin is very healthy!"
"Although his clothes were stained with a lot of blood, Uchiha Jin walked with a steady pace, and there was not even a trace of fatigue on his face."
"His eyes are still bright and piercing!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart instantly sank to the bottom.
What to do?
His brain began to spin rapidly because his many previous plans were basically based on Jin's death. Who would have thought that Uchiha Jin could still survive like this?
Leaving other things aside for now, the Police Force alone gave him a headache!
In his imagination before, as long as Uchiha Jin died, he would directly support Fugaku to take power, and then let Fugaku fix the Police Force first, at least replace the Anbu first.
Then.
After waiting for a while, release Shisui and Itachi.
Everything would return to the beginning!
But...
The most disgusting thing now was that Uchiha Jin didn't die!
After pondering for a long time, he slowly spoke: "Send people out to find Jiraiya and Tsunade, and try to persuade them to come back as much as possible."
"Yes!" The Anbu bowed.
Immediately after.
Sarutobi Hiruzen took a last deep look at the raging Root base.
He still didn't say a word and turned away from this place.
...
On the other side.
After Uchiha Jin returned to the clan grounds, he saw the Uchiha gathered on the street.
Yes!
They might not know what happened tonight, but with so many strong clan members dispatched, and a black giant more than thirty meters tall appearing in the Forest of Death...
Therefore, they were naturally very worried now.
And now seeing Uchiha Jin return, they instantly felt they had a backbone.
"Everyone, it's okay."
"Go back and rest quickly. With me here, the Uchiha won't be in chaos!"
"Don't worry, sleep peacefully!"
"..."
Uchiha Jin said with a smile.
His tone had a reassuring power, and the many anxious Uchiha finally put their hearts back in their stomachs.
Ten minutes later.
Returning to his home again, Uchiha Jin saw many clan elders and Three-Tomoe elites face to face.
Many of their clothes were stained with blood, and they had large and small wounds on their bodies, but the moment they saw Uchiha Jin, they all began to speak with surprise.
"Elder Jin is back!"
"Jin, are you okay?"
"It's good that you're back, what a relief!"
"..."
Everyone present spoke up one after another.
Everyone's faces were full of smiles, and the originally dull atmosphere dissipated instantly.
Seeing this, Uchiha Jin immediately smiled and said: "Everyone, thank you for your hard work!"
In response to this.
Everyone waved their hands one after another, almost not caring.
Fugaku walked over: "Jin, your parents have been rescued."
"Their bodies are fine, but your father's Sharingan were gouged out. However, there are some Sharingan stored in our clan, left by previous Uchiha before they died, so I have replaced your father with a pair of new Sharingan."
"However, your mother's strength is slightly lower, only a Two-Tomoe Sharingan, unable to perform Izanagi, so her eyes were not gouged out."
"By the way, also..."
"We also rescued thirty-two Uchiha who were missing from the clan grounds before tonight!"
