Naruto: Rebuilding the Land of Whirlpools Starting with the Gotei 13 Chapter 119 119. Uchiha Fugaku: My Father Just Died, Now You

"Mi...koto?!"

Uchiha Fugaku's mind was reeling.

Saving Konoha... What does that have to do with his fiancée?!

He was already preparing to get engaged to Mikoto; they were just waiting until they ca of age to marry!

Sarutobi Hiruzen wore a sorrowful expression and said heavily, "Fugaku, you must understand Konoha!"

"Konoha has just suffered a heavy blow, and we are currently at a critical mont of reconstruction. We cannot afford any more accidents!"

Uchiha Fugaku: "..."

If he has to understand Konoha, who will understand him?! Who will understand the Uchiha!

The last ti Konoha was invaded, the Uchiha sacrificed their Clan Chief.

This ti, they want him to sacrifice his fiancée!

Konoha is simply bullying the Uchiha too much!

Uchiha Fugaku took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and tried to ask in a calm tone:

"Then, Hokage-sama, what caused Konoha to fall into crisis again this ti?"

Although he knew that Uchiha Dan had been sent back today, his condition unknown.

He also knew that Uchiha Dan was escorting the reparations to the Uzushigakure.

But how could a mission this simple run into trouble?

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt a mont of awkwardness.

Ultimately, this whole affair was his fault. If he hadn't sent Uchiha Dan to use Reika no Jutsu to investigate Tsunade's situation, they wouldn't have been caught by the Uzushigakure.

He was the one who made the mistake, yet the Uchiha were being forced to pay the price.

Even his old face felt a bit exposed, so he decisively twisted the facts.

Since no one else knew the exact mission given to Uchiha Dan, he could fabricate the story however he wanted.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes instantly beca bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth, saying angrily:

"It's all because the Uzushigakure is insatiable! They actually claid that Konoha's reparations lacked sincerity! They even beat up Jonin Uchiha Dan!"

"Furthermore, they specifically demanded that Uchiha Mikoto be sent to the Uzushigakure!"

"They are absolutely despicable!!"

As he spoke, tears welled up in Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes, and he said, "I also want to push back aggressively, but you know Konoha's situation. Konoha cannot withstand another attack from the Uzushigakure!"

Uchiha Fugaku's gaze was unwavering; he only believed ten percent of what Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

Beat up Uchiha Dan? Then why is it that Uchiha Dan has no injuries besides being unconscious?

Moreover, Uchiha Dan has a reputation among the Jonin ranks.

Reika no Jutsu leaves a deep impression on everyone who sees it.

Since Sarutobi Hiruzen specifically sent him to the Uzushigakure, Uchiha Fugaku didn't believe that Sarutobi Hiruzen hadn't instructed him to cause so trouble there!

Furthermore, if the Uzushigakure truly initiated this without reason, why did everyone else who executed the mission return safely, except for Uchiha Dan?!

In short, Sarutobi Hiruzen's words are untrustworthy! This old man is quite the actor!

Uchiha Fugaku gave a deep look at Sarutobi Hiruzen, who seed to be engulfed in grief, then closed his eyes and said in a low voice:

"Hokage-sama, the Uchiha haven't done anything to betray Konoha, have we? There's no need to constantly target the Uchiha for exploitation."
