Chapter 124 : Trap!!
"Lord Hokage, no Uchiha clan members went out last night!"
The ninja responsible for monitoring the Uchiha clan said seriously. No one he was watching had left the Uchiha compound.
"Not a single person? Uchiha Fugaku and the few captains of the Police Force Division didn't go out either?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked again. He was a little skeptical that the Uchiha clan had shown no unusual movements.
"Did you check carefully?"
Among all the people, he was most suspicious of the Uchiha clan!
But...
The Uchiha clan was the one he suspected the most. If there was a shape-changing ninjutsu involved, the most suspicious person would be Uchiha Fugaku!
After all, he suspected Fugaku had activated the Mangekyo Sharingan, and his abilities were unknown. The black flames seemed like the power of the Mangekyo Sharingan.
"I checked carefully. Not a single person went out!" The ninja shook his head, his voice filled with surprise. "Fugaku and the Police Force members in the Police Force Division stayed inside. Uchiha Kinya, his strange son, and Uchiha Shin have been in secret talks, maybe planning to deal with this assassin. They might also be discussing matters of the merchant association!"
"Hmm." Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, not asking further.
If that's the case, then it wasn't the Uchiha clan behind the attack.
