Yamashiro and Fugaku were both taken aback, a common thought flashing through their minds: coup d'état. However, they quickly recollected Uchiha Natsu's words from the clan meeting the day before, and their unease subsided.
Uchiha Natsu remained unperturbed, his expression calm, even sporting a smile. "I expected the high-level officials to take action against our family," he declared with confidence. "But it doesn't matter. The Uchiha clan has always sacrificed everything for the village. I believe the truth will always surface."
His voice resonated with confidence and determination, reminiscent of a hero protagonist in a movie who, despite being wronged by the villain, dedicates everything for the sake of the village.
This resonated with Hyuga Hiashi, who, upon hearing Uchiha Natsu's words carried by the warm breeze, felt a surge of inspiration. Observing Natsu Uchiha's composed and faintly smiling expression, Hyuga Hiashi couldn't help but be impressed. "Natsu, I will do my best to help you clear up this misunderstanding," he vowed with determination.
Under the influence of Uchiha Natsu, even Hyuga Hiashi appeared resolute. The entourage standing beside him, their white eyes gleaming, were visibly moved and deeply impressed by Natsu Uchiha's unwavering demeanor.
Meanwhile, the Uchiha clansmen on the training ground continued their exercises, unfazed by the unfolding events. It wasn't until Uchiha Natsu gestured that they paused, and Uchiha Natsu's shadow clones dispersed.
As figures from Root and Anbu appeared on both edges of the practice field, Danzo, leading Root, and Hiruzen Sarutobi, leading Anbu, took their positions. The snow-white kitten, previously lounging under the shade, leaped onto a big tree, fixating its round eyes on Danzo and emitting warning cries.
Unperturbed, Danzo signaled his root members, who, wearing various masks, swiftly surrounded half of the practice field. Simultaneously, Anbu, under Sarutobi Hiruzen's direction, surrounded the other half. Uchiha clansmen who were resting under the trees gathered at the center of the field.
In the sky, a white cloud drifted by, briefly shading the sun, as if reluctant to witness the unfolding events. The breeze, now cooler, provided relief from the earlier scorching heat.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, with a stern expression, noticed Hyuga Hiashi standing next to Natsu Uchiha. Frowning, he questioned, "Hiashi, why are you here?"
Hyuga Hiashi turned around and calmly explained, "The Uchiha clan head has changed, and I am here to visit on behalf of the Hyuga clan." Given the Uchiha clan's contributions on the battlefield, it was a reasonable visit to acknowledge the new patriarch.
Acknowledging the reason, Sarutobi Hiruzen suggested, "Hiashi, let's leave now; we don't want the Hyuga clan to be implicated by the Uchiha clan."
Hyuga Hiashi nodded and turned to Natsu Uchiha, expressing his apologies. "That's it for today, and we won't be able to intervene in the future. I'm sorry."
Uchiha Natsu graciously responded, "It's okay. Please go ahead." With a smile and a wave, he subtly acknowledged the acting skills he displayed as the head of the clan.
Observing Hyuga Hiashi and his entourage leave, Sarutobi Hiruzen retrieved the documents and declared, "The cases involving the Uchiha clan have been investigated, and the decision has been made by all high-level officials to detain the entire Uchiha clan."
Facing the thick documents, he selected some with fewer flaws and began reading them aloud. The clouds lingered overhead as if even the sky wanted to hear the accusations against the Uchiha clan.
Uchiha Natsu listened calmly, and when the reading concluded, he spoke loudly, "I believe these crimes need to be redefined. Anbu's words alone may not be convincing, and, besides, not all families were involved. Uchiha's contributions to Konoha are evident. We have the right to request a new investigation."
Uchiha Natsu knew that voicing his concerns wouldn't change the outcome, but he had to stand on the side of morality and reason with the Third Hokage.
Hiruzen Sarutobi was momentarily stunned, grappling with the weight of Uchiha Natsu's unexpected status and conviction. The Uchiha clan head, whom he believed ranked third, now held an equivalent status to the real patriarch.
"Natsu Uchiha is indeed the core problem of the Uchiha clan and the most challenging," Hiruzen Sarutobi pondered.
As Hyuga Hiashi and his entourage departed, Danzo stepped forward, attempting to provoke a conflict by accusing Uchiha of hiding the Three Great Dojutsu. However, Yamashiro and Fugaku refuted the claims, stating that Uchiha had no involvement in the Nine-Tails Rebellion.
Undeterred, Danzo persisted, insisting that Uchiha be imprisoned. Uchiha Natsu, maintaining his composed demeanor, acknowledged the decision, expressing confidence in the Uchiha clan's innocence and predicting that the truth would emerge one day.
This unexpected response left both Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo momentarily stunned, as they had anticipated a different reaction from the Uchiha clan.
