Capítulo 116: **Chapter 115: It Wasn’t Me, Because I Didn’t Have Time!**
"Enough!"
The Third Hokage shouted, turning his head to look at Itsuki, saying, "What are you doing here?"
His words were not polite at all.
After all, they had already clashed several times—what's the point of politeness anymore?
If he could win, he would have killed him a long time ago.
"Why do you think I'm here?"
Itsuki's eyes were hostile. "Monkey, tell the truth. Was it you who killed the envoy from the Hidden Cloud? You went to great lengths to frame me. Aren't you worried about starting a war?"
The Third Hokage frowned, staring intently at Itsuki.
Itsuki coldly said, "Don't tell me you think I did it?"
He chuckled, "Sorry, I didn't have the chance to make a move. In fact, I was planning to kill those arrogant guys within the Hidden Cloud village, or at least in their territory. You stole my prey."
The Third Hokage was stunned. "So you mean, it wasn't you?"
"Of course not!"
The Third Hokage was truly stunned and murmured, "If it wasn't you, then who could it be?"
Both of them fell silent.
Then suddenly!
The Third Hokage, Itsuki, and even Homura and Koharu all turned their gaze to Danzo.
Their looks were deep, filled with suspicion.
Deep down, it was certain!
"Are you kidding me?!"
Danzo almost coughed up blood.
What do you mean by this? All four of you think I did it?
And!
The only reason it's just four is because there are only four of you here. If there were a fifth, would they also…?
Damn it! I can't take this anymore!
You've all developed a habit: if something goes wrong, blame Danzo!
I, Danzo, refuse to accept this!
"Danzo!"
Itsuki's face was dark as he said, "Are you still not going to admit it?"
"Admit what, your grandfather?"
Danzo angrily replied, "It wasn't me! Uchiha Itsuki, it was definitely you! You're up to your tricks again, aren't you?"
"What tricks?"
"The Mangekyo Sharingan!"
Danzo's voice was icy. "Are you going to deny that your eyes are Mangekyo Sharingan?"
Lost your Mangekyo Sharingan? My foot!
I've been wronged for nothing.
"My eyes are indeed Mangekyo Sharingan!"
Itsuki admitted outright, "But this isn't my pair. It belongs to someone else. The Uchiha clan is large and has existed for many years. Don't you think there's more than one pair of Mangekyo Sharingan?"
The Third Hokage asked in surprise, "So you're saying this Mangekyo Sharingan doesn't belong to you?"
"Absolutely not!"
Itsuki confidently stated, "By the way, let me tell you something. I'm not the only one with Mangekyo Sharingan. Setsuna has it too. It's a family legacy. You small clans probably wouldn't understand the greatness of the Uchiha."
The Third Hokage and the others were deeply troubled.
Setsuna, the Uchiha hawk? He's a notorious rebel!
Now he has Mangekyo Sharingan too!
Without Mangekyo, he was already unstoppable. Now that he has it, who knows what he'll do?
The Third Hokage looked intensely at Itsuki. "Why are you telling us this?"
"I'm telling you because I want to make it clear: I own up to the things I do!"
Itsuki pointed at Danzo's lower region. "Just like when I blew up Danzo's balls. I did that! What, can't admit to what I did?"
"If I did it, I admit it!"
"You..."
Danzo was trembling with rage.
Balls again!
Can we go one day without mentioning balls?
The Third Hokage and the others, however, fell into silence.
Could it really have been Danzo, not Itsuki?
Danzo's face was dark. "What are you looking at? I've already said it wasn't me!"
"Then who was it?"
Itsuki coldly replied, "I told you, I wanted the Hidden Cloud to die by my hand. Whoever killed them first is my enemy, and I will have my revenge!"
The Third Hokage had a headache.
Was it Itsuki who killed them? Or Danzo?
And now Itsuki is shouting about revenge.
Is that how revenge works?
Honestly, although the Third Hokage and Itsuki had their differences, deep down, he was more inclined to believe that Danzo did it.
As Itsuki said, he would admit it if he did it.
Danzo, on the other hand, was always a sly old fox, always stirring up trouble. Nine out of ten times, he was behind the dirty work!
"Alright!"
The Third Hokage suddenly said, "It doesn't matter who did it. The fact remains that the Hidden Cloud envoy is dead. The Leaf Village has to give them an explanation, right?"
Itsuki looked at the Third Hokage with a smirk, "Last time a Hidden Cloud envoy died, you sent out Hiashi. What about this time? How about sending out Hizashi?"
The Third Hokage's face darkened.
What, do I have a face that's cursed to cause trouble for the Hyuga clan?
"So, what do you suggest?"
The Third Hokage asked Itsuki.
The Hidden Cloud envoy died in the Leaf Village; the village definitely had to provide an explanation.
Itsuki thought for a moment, "How about chopping up Danzo? With Lord Danzo's status, maybe you could even ask the Hidden Cloud for a discount."
"Enough!"
The Third Hokage's face darkened, waving his hand repeatedly. "Itsuki, go back."
Now he finally understood. Why was he even discussing this with Itsuki?
Is he even qualified?
And besides, every other sentence was about sacrificing Danzo.
What has my Danzo done to you... well, even if he has, so what?
I'll protect him!
"Go back for what?"
Itsuki asked. "The person I wanted to kill is dead. Shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
The Third Hokage was dumbfounded. "You want me to give you an explanation for this?"
His eyes were filled with disbelief.
What the hell? Is everyone treating me like a pushover now?
The Hidden Cloud can demand an explanation because their people died in the Leaf Village. But now you're asking me for one too, just because the person didn't die by your hand?
The Third Hokage was trembling with rage.
Have I been too easygoing recently?
Itsuki looked serious, "Shouldn't you? The Hidden Cloud demands an explanation, and you give it. Now I, a member of the Leaf Village, demand one, and you won't?"
"Get out! Get out now!"
The Third Hokage exploded in rage.
Then, a flurry of objects was thrown at Itsuki.
Everything on the Third Hokage's desk was hurled.
Even his pipe flew out.
Finally, his shoes!
He was just short of throwing his clothes at him.
"What the hell?!"
Itsuki was dumbfounded.
He was ready for a fight with the Third Hokage, but who would have thought the Third would throw a tantrum like an angry housewife?
Who can handle this?
Helpless, Itsuki could only run away.
"I'm not bullying the elderly!"
"GET OUT!!!"
The Third Hokage sat in his chair, disheveled and breathing heavily.
"Is that it, Hiruzen?"
Danzo sarcastically asked. "They're walking all over you."
The Third Hokage looked Danzo straight in the eye, "So, it's up to you now."
"Me?"
Danzo paused, then saw the Third Hokage's meaningful look and suddenly understood.
"Heh, Hiruzen, you haven't changed!"
Danzo sneered. "Fine, leave it to me!"
This kind of thing was right up his alley.
Soon!
A rumor began to spread around the Leaf Village.
There were various versions, but the gist was this:
Uchiha Itsuki, because of Uchiha Mikoto, brutally murdered the Hidden Cloud envoy!
When Fugaku heard the rumor, his eyes turned green with rage.
The rumor might as well have directly said Itsuki killed for the sake of a beauty.
That's my wife!
So!
At the next Jonin meeting, as soon as it started, Fugaku stood up.
"A battle is inevitable!"
His roar shocked all the Jonin of the Leaf Village.
Those closest to him trembled in fear.
