Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer

Chapter 45: Danzo is Not Innocent at All!

Unknowingly.

Three days passed.

During this period of time, Aoba did not go out to train.

He just stayed quietly in the dormitory.

Now was the short period of hibernation before the holiday. He was not in a hurry and had to act weak at this moment.

However, he did not know that in these three days. Konohagakure had already experienced a huge storm of public opinion.

At first, people were only discussing the floating corpses on the river, and because of Fugaku's words, they realized that this corpse had something to do with the missing people.

The specific investigation of the case had nothing to do with ordinary people. So they could not get any internal information.

But, on the third day of the fermentation.

One message after another came out of nowhere and instantly spread throughout the entire Konohagakure.

In the beginning, the news that came out was that the River Corpse Case had been given from Konoha Military Police Force to Anbu, and it has been dealt with along with the disappearance case.

There was no problem at all.

It only made people subtly believe that this case was part of the missing person case.

After that, the news became even more explosive.

I don't know where it came from, but it was said that Anbu's boss, Danzo, who should catch the murderer, was the person who killed this man named Taichi!

In an instant, this news spread throughout the entire village, and everyone was skeptical.

No one knew what was going on.

Not long after that, another piece of news came out.

According to the news, those who disappeared were all kidnapped by Danzo. The specific purpose was not yet known, but almost all of them should have been killed.

After this news came out.

Many families with missing people couldn't sit still, and they gathered downstairs of the Hokage's office, wanting to hear an explanation from the Third Hokage.

At the place where the crowd gathered, Outer circle, Under the shade of a small tree.

"I wonder if the public opinion this time can force the Third Hokage to be pressured and transfer the authority of investigation from Anbu to the Police Force."

An old man said in a low voice. If Aoba was here, he would immediately recognize that this old man was Yuta.

"Eighty percent."

Another old man said. The old man who spoke was Yuta's good friend Tetsu and continued to analyze, "Danzo has been splashed with such dirty water. Regardless of whether he cares or not, the Third Hokage will definitely care. You must know that Danzo is his shield. If we don't get rid of Danzo, there is no way to get rid of the Third Hokage. I think that to protect Danzo, the Third Hokage will definitely hand the case to Konoha Military Police Force."

"I hope everything goes well. That way, Taichi's sacrifice will not be in vain. Otherwise, we will have to use another person."

Yuta sighed.

"In order to complete the plan, sacrifices are inevitable. If necessary, we need to sacrifice!"

Tetsu said in a deep voice.

"I understand, and I have already come to a realization. I just want to make as little sacrifices as possible."

Yuta nodded.

"The Third Hokage is an old fox and has hidden very deeply. We can only use this method to open up the situation."

Tetsu said helplessly.

Just as the two of them were talking.

The Third Hokage Hiruzen came out from the balcony on the third floor of the Hokage's office.

He was wearing a red and white-colored Hokage robe and a Kage hat with the word "fire" on his head. He was wearing very formal clothes.

"Third Hokage-sama!"

"Third Hokage-sama is out!"

"Third Hokage-sama, you have to help us!"

"Third Hokage-sama, did Danzo-sama do this?"

"Third Hokage-sama,

"What the hell is going on?"

With the appearance of Third Hokage Hiruzen, the scene suddenly became noisy. Everyone was fighting to ask questions, and suddenly there was a hubbub of voices.

When Yuta and Tetsu saw this scene in the distance, they could not help but smile at each other.

This was the result they wanted.

To put pressure on the Third Hokage.

The Third Hokage had no choice but to give up part of his power temporarily.

As for when to recover...

That would depend on when Konoha Military Police Force would solve this case of missing people to prove Danzo's innocence.

"Cough cough..."

The Third Hokage Hiruzen coughed to calm and focused everyone's attention on him.

"Everyone, quiet down."

He raised his hand calmly, signaling everyone to stop talking. His face was very serious.

All of a sudden.

The scene quieted down.

Everyone was waiting for the Third Hokage to respond.

"In the past few days, the village has been filled with all kinds of rumors, which have caused great trouble for the village. I promise everyone here that Danzo will definitely investigate this case thoroughly and give everyone justice."

Hiruzen said loudly, his voice clearly transmitted into everyone's ears.

"Eh?"

Yuta and Tetsu were stunned at the same time. This was different from what they expected.

"The Third Hokage did not hand over the authority of Danzo. Faced with this kind of pressure from public opinion, he protected Danzo. This is very unfavorable for our plan!"

An anxious expression appeared on Yuta's face. After repeated calculations, the Third Hokage should not take the risk to protect Danzo.

"Wait..."

Tetsu stared at Third Hokage Hiruzen, who was standing on the balcony of the third floor.

At this time, the Third Hokage was defending Danzo while comforting everyone and making promises...

"Something is wrong!"

"There's a problem!"

"No, there's really a problem here!"

Tetsu's expression instantly became incomparably gloomy. He couldn't help but feel goosebumps all over his body. He realized something extremely terrifying.

"What's wrong?"

Yuta looked at Tetsu's nervous appearance and asked doubtfully.

"This missing person case that shook the entire Konohagakure was Danzo's doing!"

Tetsu's eyes were wide open. After he made this conclusion, even he found it hard to believe.

"What?"

Yuta couldn't believe his ears.

"I really didn't expect that when I came up with the reason for framing Danzo, saying that Danzo was the one kidnapping people!"

The corners of Tetsu's mouth curled up slightly, and his eyes became playful.

"If this matter has nothing to do with Danzo, and he is innocent, then the Third Hokage will definitely hand over the investigation rights of the case to calm the public opinion, and this will not cause him any loss."

"But in the face of such pressure, he did not let go of Danzo. There is only one explanation for this abnormal behavior..."

"The Third Hokage knows that Danzo did this!"

"Danzo is not innocent at all!"

"We accidentally found the real mastermind behind this case!"

"Since the fox's tail has been exposed, then things will be much easier in the future!"

"Yuta."

"We are going to start the next step!"

Tetsu revealed a smile of victory. He had wanted to find the Third Hokage's weakness for many years and never expected to find it in such a situation.
