Chapter 109: Chapter 109 : Justice??
The Uchiha clan is evil!
As expected, the Third Hokage was right. Now, the evil little Uchiha in front of him is methodically taking the lives of his own clan members, one by one.
The sounds of their painful groans, and the sinister smile on the boy's face, were pure demonic.
"They have no strength left to resist! Why are you still killing them?" Sarutobi Natsu glared at Genya with a pained expression, his eyes filled with hatred.
He remembered the firm promise he made when he received the Third Hokage's orders—he swore to bring the clan members back safely! Now...
With the final scream echoing in the air, he was the only one left alive from the team.
It was... laughable.
"Why kill them?" After dealing with the last person, Genya finally turned to acknowledge Sarutobi Natsu. "Also... you call us evil? Have you forgotten who initiated this ambush? If... if we were captured by you, would you let us go?"
Genya's voice was calm but filled with deliberate force. He had been observing Konoha for so long, and now he could finally vent his frustrations.
These so-called righteous people, their actions were disgusting!
And yet, they dared to say the Uchiha clan was evil? That the Uchiha clan was warmongers?
How laughable!
If the Uchiha clan were truly warmongers, they would have followed Madara and left Konoha long ago.
They wouldn't have been treated with such suspicion. Madara's prediction had been correct. If the election was done to be Hokage, they would have been excluded from the center of power!
How laughable, the Uchiha clan gave up their original leader.
Wasn't that to enjoy the hard-won peace?
But now, they were labeled as an evil clan!
The Uchiha clan, who could only awaken their Sharingan through intense sorrow, understood emotions better than anyone else!
"They wouldn't let us go..." Sarutobi Natsu muttered, continuing Genya's words, but then froze for a moment.
Under Genya's gaze, Sarutobi Natsu unintentionally spoke the truth from his heart.
What... just happened? Was his mind affected by something?
However, what he had just thought was indeed to kill all of Genya's people, leaving none alive!
But since he had already said it, Sarutobi Natsu had no regrets: "You evil Uchiha clan should have been wiped out long ago. I even regret not using the Nine-Tails chaos to destroy your clan!"
He had completely given up on life and spoke with venom, his words as cruel as they could be.
"Heh, such righteous words," Genya chuckled lightly. "No wonder so many Konoha people were deceived by you!" He then continued, "It is you who want to kill us. I'm really curious how you can say our Uchiha clan is evil when you're so wicked yourselves."
Genya was thoroughly disgusted with the Sarutobi clan. A clan that could raise someone with such a personality—Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't be any better.
"Hmph, my Sarutobi clan represents justice. Kid, do whatever you want to us, but the Third Hokage will avenge us!" Sarutobi Natsu said provocatively.
He no longer cared about life or death.
"Vengeance?" Genya sneered and stared at Sarutobi Natsu. "You probably won't live long enough to see it. Maybe not even that old man will last much longer to come after us!"
Genya didn't want to waste more time with him. After realizing it was the Third Hokage's orders, Genya immediately threw a kunai, piercing Sarutobi Natsu's chest!
Sarutobi Natsu's eyes instantly became hollow, his mouth dripping blood: "Hokage... Hokage-sama, I couldn't..."
His voice became weaker and weaker until it completely vanished.
"Damn it, did that old man, the Third Hokage, really do this to us?" Uchiha Shin laughed coldly, but his tone carried deep anger. "I never expected him to be so fake, always acting kind, but when it came to killing us, he was serious!"
"Fake? Uncle Shin, the Third Hokage has been targeting our Uchiha clan for a long time!" Genya sneered, his tone filled with disdain for Sarutobi Hiruzen.
As he spoke, Genya walked toward their injured members of the Merchant Association.
These were all Chunin, who were clearly no match for Jonin, yet they still stepped forward to fight!
Some of them were Uchiha clan members, and some were former employees of the Merchant Association!
They were willing to die for their own cause!
These people were severely injured, some already unconscious due to their wounds!
Genya walked up to one of the injured, watching the ninja, whose breath was shallow and weak, still holding on to life with a lingering attachment to the world.
He pressed his hand to his chest!
Healing Palm Technique!
A medical ninjutsu that he had learned when Toshi used it. This time, he was using it to save his comrades!
"Genya-kun!" After the person regained some strength, he looked at Genya and murmured, a smile of relief on his face.
Genya won!
The danger was over, and his mission was complete!
"It's alright now. You're safe!" While using the Healing Palm Technique, the four tomoe in his pupils were rapidly spinning. "We were only ambushed by some rogue ninjas, but Uncle Shin took care of everything!"
While healing these ninjas, he also subtly planted new ideas in their minds!
In their severely injured state, people are the most vulnerable to hypnosis and suggestion.
Genya's mental energy was also slightly replenished.
Thus, while healing the injured, Genya used genjutsu to alter their memories of the battle.
He made them believe that what happened today was just a simple raid, an ordinary robbery—they had been ambushed, nothing more.
"Huh? These people are loyal, we don't need to use genjutsu on them!"
Uchiha Shin, watching Genya alter the minds of the ninjas, added, "In my opinion, these people are loyal to the Merchant Association. They won't speak of this."
"Uncle Shin, you might know that if Hiruzen Sarutobi finds out these dozen or so jonin are missing, will he interrogate anyone?" Genya slowly spoke to Uchiha Shin, but as he spoke, black flames swept across, erasing all traces.
As for the remaining black-clad ninjas, Genya used the Universal Pull to draw them in and incinerated them with a Great Fireball Technique. Thus, all evidence was wiped away.
"Are you saying Hiruzen Sarutobi will intervene?" Uchiha Shin frowned, deep in thought.
The Sarutobi clan would not sit idly after losing dozens of jonin!
However, those he sent to ambush them... the Third Hokage would definitely question them.
At the same time, he understood why Genya was modifying their memories.
Because, when facing the Hokage's questioning, even the slightest mistake could expose the truth.
Moreover, Konoha also has top-notch interrogation ninjas. No one knows if that old man, the Third Hokage, will get so obsessed that he sends out the interrogation ninjas!
Thinking of this, his gaze toward Genya became even stranger.
Genya's thoughts were just too meticulous.
