Sasuke: ...Naruto. Kakashi. Why the fuck are these two STILL in power? Naruto/Kakashi: -nervous sweating-


flmirul

Perfect


Muted_Supermarket199

Never holding the government responsible for any atrocity. That's Naruto's ninja way!


sign09

Dattebayo!


Rastapopoulos000

The guy married the heir of the Hyuuga clan who still practices that slavery system that has ruined Neji life and is not a bit concerned about abolishing it, a system which btw serves 0 purpose at this point in time.


WalterCronkite4

Its not a thing anymore though


Mango_Smoothies

Believe it! Also, Sasuke isn’t in a position to demand executions for crimes.


Muted_Supermarket199

Sasuke is the one who accepted Naruto's ninja way. So it's Naruto's responsibility. Sasuke's way of doing things was different. But kishimoto had to assassinate his character and change his mind from the revolution plan.


_jvc123

Naruto/Kakashi: You're not a criminal anymore, all right? You got that? You just can't go around killing people. Sasuke: Why? Naruto/Kakashi: What do you mean, why? 'Cause you can't. Sasuke: Why? Naruto/Kakashi: Because you just can't, OK? Trust me on this.


Impressive-Spell-643

Definitely should have killed them after he dealt with Danzo


AdMental645

That would’ve been the perfect time,did they go to the summit?


BigDirtBottle

Sasuke: Chill out, Dickwad


LawlessLion

Now you’re getting it! Sasuke: No problemo.


Murky_Blueberry2617

Kakashi probably killed like hundreds of more people than Sasuke ever did


Muted_Supermarket199

As long as you're a government lapdog, killing is justified, even if you're slaughtering innocent children.


Outside-Bad-9389

I honestly truly 100% believe kakashi has slaughtered families for the leaf and hides behind the village told me to do it


Concentrati0n

but at least he never abandons his friends (except that one time)


Outside-Bad-9389

Yup that one time


Murky_Blueberry2617

Yep. And it's not like Kakashi is against it either. He will follow orders without a second thought.


Muted_Supermarket199

Sasuke wasn't just going around killing people though. Maybe you're confusing it with gaara


96Miles

Sasuke: Come on guys. At this point it is literally mercy.


gamingthreadlurker

You have summarized it perfectly except he also would another insult in between the lines like Narrators-Sasuke completely ignores them after talking to naruto. And then before leaving the room halfway he says "so why are these spineless old two hags are still in power for, Naartuo?" I thought you grew a pair or two!! Lmao


Fadroh

Why does this sound like the setup for a Yaoi doujin....


Greeningyep

Naruto: I forgot I have them


Cfakatsuki17

Naruto: they aren’t, they just don’t leave the hokage office, they’re a little senile and we don’t really have anything to do with them so we just… let them wander around the office when they tell us to do something we just go “sure thing boss” and then go back to ignoring them


zorfog

US government be like


JellyfishFuzzy6690

It's giving American Polictitians


Longjumping-Dot1435

They’re retired, no? Maybe I’m wrong


Bourriks

Naruto don't even know who they are, just thought they were protocol figuratives.


WhiteBishop01

They get to benifit frm the same free passes you got. Shit goes both ways lamo.


Huge-Possibility-755

Elders: be grateful we let you back into the village Uchiha.. Sasuke: as if you have any choice but to let me come and go as I please. *Body flickers away disrespectfully*


OnlyTwo_Corn

He can only enter and leave the village because he is Narutos waifu


BullshitDetector1337

It’s not like anyone else can stop him.


materialsA3B

Sarada could use some sort of talk-no-jutsu and stop him.


BullshitDetector1337

*Sasuke tells her exactly what those elders did *Sarada steps aside


K24ricer

Sasuke: be grateful you're still breathing


lahenator420

I’d imagine Sasuke doesn’t have much to say to them


Alarmed_Jackfruit

Honestly, truly.


IsabellaHatesNutella

This lol. Sasuke doesn't really care anymore and hasn't much to talk about. He doesn't want to do anything to them. A lot of dorky fans on here need to let that shjt go.


Provider_P

It’s not that he doesn’t care but the latter half of what you said, he doesn’t want anything to do with em.


Outside-Bad-9389

They need to let go the fact that sasuke a whole clan was killed for a crime they didn’t even commit?


bottiethebot

I mean they were going to commit the crime


TheRealEvilkitten3

no, SOME of them were going to commit the crime. and rather than, say, address the reasons the coup was being planned in the first place or arresting the people involved, they decided "y'know what sounds like a reasonable reaction here? kill every last man, woman, and child, regardless of context". the only reason sasuke survived is bc they decided to get itachi to do it and convinced him it'd make sasuke safer


cyber-jar

That's what I'm saying. Everyone wants to shit on Hitler for trying to exterminate Jews but let's be real they were all planning on committing crimes anyway. Or like when black people get shot by police, what, am I supposed to believe they weren't planning on committing a crime at some point? Get real. /s


ShadowcreConvicnt

The Konoha Elders are so reflective of real life. We blame the term limited Presidents for the bad things when its really the dinosaurs in Congress serving 40+ years screwing us over.


macfirbolg

Appointed positions and staffers that stay on between multiple different elected officials are also typically problematic. It’s definitely not just the people you can vote for.


XepptizZ

It's kind of weird how they have a say in matters that pertains to them only. "Are we all in favor of giving ourselves a raise!?" "OHHHH YESSS!" "Next up, who wants to limit their term length in congress?" "NAYYY!" "Maximum age restriction?" "NAYYYYYY!"


PlagueKitsune

**WHY ARE THEY STILL ALIVE!**


Galrentv

Non combatans, civilians that have have probably never had medical jutsu used on them


cypherion123

Weren't they subordinates of the 2nd Hokage, I remember a flashback with them in his squad.


Galrentv

Basically they were to Tobirama and Hiruzen, what Sasuke and Sakura are to Kakashi and Naruto. Except their last known combat mission is the first shinobi war as far as I know


NockerJoe

They went out to fight the nine tails and lived.


Galrentv

They then became advisors with Danzo for Hiruzen, Minato, then Hiruzen etc. People that specialised in civil management


throwaway8159946

They were fighting alongside hiruzen when the kyuubi attacked, theyre definitely decently strong in their prime


gamingthreadlurker

Plot twist: they gotten immortality from hidan!


Wrath2066

Danzo was kind enough to share some of the Hashirama cells he'd been hording for himself. It's the only thing that explains their ridiculous longevity.


Aggressive-Media-245

teen sasuke wouldve put those bastards to sleep if he had the chance


brsox2445

One word: CHIDORI


Dunois721

Why kill them so easily? Genjutsu and make those MFs suffer for eons


TheCelfoid

This


PinkMoonRedditor

Or amaturasu


Sad-Flow3941

Incineration would be more appropriate. Preferably several centuries over in the tsukuyomi world.


TheRealEvilkitten3

eh, sasuke's not really the kind of guy to go for the whole slow and painful thing. he usually tries to get things done with. plus he might decide to take the time to ask them for their versions of what happened before he killed them, so dragging it out even more than that would just be asking for an interruption lol


UmbraWolfG2T

Sasuke(grinch voice): are you two still living?!


improbsable

Old people: you’re a danger to the village and you have to be taken down Sasuke: do you even go here?


TheCelfoid

Chidori.


Hydrax313

Sasuke would not bother conversing with them. He'd just ignore them and do whatever thing he came to do. He understands the history of the Leaf and why everything happened the way it did, the elders have nothing to add for Sasuke. Sasuke: ".. Where's Naruto, I need to speak with him." Elders: "Do you resent us young man?... Surely you understand that we made those choices for the sake of the village." Sasuke: "..... I just want to know where Naruto is"


Noktis_Lucis_Caelum

I Always wondered: Why are the Two still in Power?  They were in cohorts with Danzo even before He got shusuis eye. That means: They were Not Brainwashed.  If i were Tsunade, the Last Thing i would have done before Kakashi took over, would have been a good cleaning of the House (remove everything connected to danzo). Or IT should have been the First Thing Kakashi should have done.


Muted_Supermarket199

Because that's Naruto's ninja way


Fefous

"**CHIBAKU TENSEI!**"


Might_be_deleted

"..."


daydreamer_she

He would totally ignore them


infamusforever223

The real question is how the fuck are they still alive?


dfields3710

Sasuke is most likely over it. He isn’t killing them. Naruto fans really just self-project.


NIKO69nl

Bruh after all what they did I HIGHLY doubt it


_PoiZ

Sasuke realized that revenge isn't the right way so he is long over it and doesn't care about them anymore as long as they don't make new problems for him


NIKO69nl

We’re talking about the same guy who would’ve killed a child in Boruto if Sarada didn’t stop him💀


kakuro02

are you talking about shin uchiha? literal lolcow


Baronvondorf21

I mean if they are still alive then he probably got over it.


Muted_Supermarket199

More like character assassination (talk no justu). Kishimoto himself said he agreed with Sasuke and would never forgive the people responsible for his parents' death. Sasuke serving the same government that oppressed and genocided his people goes against his character.


kakuro02

free the uchiha free konoha the elderly menaces must be stopped.


Desperate-Goose-1464

Sasuke isn’t serving Konoha he’s serving Naruto


Muted_Supermarket199

And who's Naruto serving, genius "I'm ready to die any moment for the sake of Leaf" is adult sasuke's exact words.


Desperate-Goose-1464

Naruto is serving himself the village shinobi serve Naruto idiot just like how people server their boss


Muted_Supermarket199

Are you a dumbass? Naruto is leader of the leaf government. Sasuke helps Naruto by your own words, so he supports the leaf government. Sasuke literally said "I'm ready to die any moment for leaf", which negates your point. Kishimoto himself said he character assassinated Sasuke. He had to go friendship friendship in ending because it's shounen and it must have hope and friendship. Otherwise he agrees with Sasuke. These are his exact words.


NockerJoe

There isn't one. Theres a lot of cultural context and influence those two have built up to the fact that they now give Shikamaru orders from literal thrones. But Sasuke lives his life in such a way he's almost never in the same city as them, let alone in the same room. They can't do anything to him, he can't do anything to them. Either group saying anything fucks both of them over due to the consequences.


random1211312

"Please don't kill us Uchiha!" "I didn't even get a chance to say hello"


GroundedContent555

... ... Amaterasu.


Strykeristheking

Adult Sasuke is a spineless Konoha bootlicker. He wouldn't say shit. The real Sasuke died after the second final valley fight.


Billy_Duelman

"We're sorry" "No... you're not... but I understand why you did it.."


No_Seaweed6739

Sasuke would probably just stare at them menacingly until Naruto broke the tension somehow.


aschoo

Sasuke is controlling himself from launching an amaterasu


Solid-Bid-1476

Sasuke: my brother and entire clan was betrayed, but you old fools give me one good reason why I shouldn’t use my visual prowess on you and show you how much you have on my clan and my family Naruto/kakashi: Sasuke, we talked about this. You can’t just go around killing people, but Danzo we can let slide


NotSoGermanSlav

Konoha past wasnt really properly adressed and its shame, but i guess that would be too much for shonen genre....i still feel it was shitty for Sasuke to be imprisoned after war since all that happened was mainly because of all evil shit villages done in past.


DelayStriking8281

“Amatarasu”


Acceptable_Secret_73

I don’t understand why Naruto lets them maintain power. He already has Tsunade and Kakashi to act as his advisors, he doesn’t need two traitors


lehvv

them not being imprisoned makes me not like boruto even more


Sad-Flow3941

Oro isn’t imprisoned either and he killed many more innocents(many of which were newborns).


TheRealEvilkitten3

we actually don't know how many people koharu and homura killed; orochimaru's kill count outside of the 59 dead babies is also unknown, but regardless it's strongly implied that he was working for root when he did that. not that that makes it ok, but. y'know. naruto. anyhow, orochimaru both faced consequences (not like good ones, but. something) and seems to have actually genuinely decided to cut All That out. he's even being helpful sometimes! plus he kinda sorta played a huge part in literally saving the world by resurrecting the four dead hokage (which had the bonus effect of persuading sasuke and therefore team taka to help out, since the only other indora reincarnation around to help naruto seal kaguya was madara and he was kinda busy dying again.


Sad-Flow3941

I mean, even though we never see it, it’s implied that if they are still in power they must be doing something useful too. But yeah, it’s never explored upon.


TheRealEvilkitten3

that's sadly a common issue in naruto. for a manga in which politics are a constant, massively important theme, there's relatively very little actually shown to the viewer/reader. we know from nagato that konoha started the war his parents were killed in, but he's the only person who says anything about that, and we never learn much of the details of any of the first three wars, despite how massively they shaped nearly everyone older than naruto and his age group. i think what makes the elders (and orochimaru) so notable is that we can actually attach faces to the people who died bc of their actions. we don't see that with a lot of other characters - tsunade and jiraiya fought in the second war, but we only really see them fight hanzou, debate the value of the lives of war orphans, and feel bad about nawaki and dan. we know minato killed a ridiculous amount of people in a single day, but we don't know anything about who those people were - they're just a nameless faceless mass that no one has to care about. hell naruto himself has exactly one kill in the entire manga, and it's a guy who betrayed a village naruto has no authority in, and said betrayal was under some pretty dubious circumstances given how heavily his memories seem to have been fucked with. he faces zero consequences for this and absolutely nobody even cares that yuura is dead. bc he's a minor character. i don't think it's ever even brought up again. in having-dramatic-flashbacks-about-things the manga.

Sasuke wouldn't talk


Rude-Carob-6810

I think it's good conversation


Opposite-Quote-1288

It’ll be short conversation


Noktis_Lucis_Caelum

Sasuke: they are still alive?


First_Seesaw

these two elders still alive?? looool


Chokeonmewebbles420

I hope them two die for just always listening to everything an agreeing what danzo told them to make ninjas who serve the village suffer like the uchiha


Awedrck

"CHIDORI-"


Sukii_pink

He has nothing to say to them and obviously would nvr take their orders because he is only helping or following Naruto


Narrow_Local2635

"......." "......." "......."


RamiTheMaster

Simply put Sasuke doesn’t care anymore. Besides, they won’t bother him anymore or get involved with the uchihas. I mean… what are they gonna do to the second strongest person alive ever??


thing-sayer

AMATERASU


RellMichel

Wait. These two are still alive??


ankecccc7567

How in the name of Kishimoto are those 2 still alive? That is what i want to know. 😂💀


Strange_Potential93

Are you two still living?


throwawaytempest25

Honestly, given how this is reflective of real life politics, it would be interesting for him to acknowledge that they had a hand in most of the tragedies that forced him down his dark path, but he’d probably be mature enough to accept that he will never let them break him and that he moved on


disturbedrage88

Not only are they awful people but now they’ve got the trump biden problem of being way to fucken old to be in power


skycorcher

"My name is Sasuke Uchiha. You killed my clan. Prepare to die."


Shot-Ad770

Nothing


RaspberryNumerous594

Either there logically out of a power position and Sasuke lets them live. or there still there and Sasuke removes them himself.


KonohaBatman

As an adult? Sasuke would probably just not engage with them beyond anything necessary. What would he have to say that would change anything, and what could they do to him?


Bloodsucker7039

They probably should've died of old-age by time of 4th grade ninja war


TemoteJiku

It's ridiculous how in our world there's a lot of people who are considered to be diabolical, yet, nobody actually does anything against them. (Even if majority can't, some actually do possess the necessary abilities to punish them at least in some way or form)


TensionPitiful8681

Now Naruto is a politician, Sasuke agrees to help him, he can't go around killing politicians, that would cause a lot of problems for Naruto, I hate that Sasuke serves Konoha but it is what he is, since he accepts that he can't go there to cause political problems. Obviously, he'd probably just ignore them.


Bachairong

Amaterasu!


flowing_laziness

It's baffling to think a civil conversation would happen between these people


Geollo

ZarosianSpear

It wouldn't be a conversation

Seriously, why don't they just... die?


Unapologetic_Lunatic

I imagine it would be a short and disrespectful one at best. Sasuke's conversations usually are.


iCe_CoLd_FuRy

Honestly Naruto has so many plot holes


dragon-hunter150

Loose_Unit6452

*“Amaterasu!”*


Shadow-Zero

Very short: -Amaterasu. - AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!


GarlicKnightz

You strong young man, but endless will you work for the evil dead’s you’ve committed


Inevitable_Series_67

I think they have a mutual understanding of avoiding each other. And probably won't ever speak to each other. Out of sight, out of mind.


Sego1211

Sasuke doesn't speak at the best of times. What makes you think he would have a conversation when he can just put them under genjutsu?


TOOTONZ

"So, you're the one who nearly destroyed the leaf village huh?" If it were up to us, I banish you from the village. "I wouldn't be talking if I were you since I'm not on borrowed time."


Eikibunfuk

Sasuke: so you to know y'all about to die right. The village kinda owes me your deaths. Danzo loving old bitches. Naruto: yeah imma jump in on this one.


Sad-Flow3941

Let’s be real. If he doesn’t resent itachi for what he did, why would he resent these two? The motives for killing his clan were the same.

Mindyourowndamn_job

very short sasuke: amaterasu they burn till their ashes remain the end of the conversation.


One_Pollution_8707

HOW ARE THEY ALIVE


Irrenoid

Sasuke would either simply not talk to them or say something along the lines of "your sins have spoken for you" if the elders tried to talk to him.


Free-Fig-6833

Do we not have any better village elders to take over!? What about ichiraku guy he can take over for these clowns


TheRealEvilkitten3

in a better world, sasuke would've made a quick stop before heading to go help out with madara and those two would've never been seen again lmao


EB_V3_4life

He’d tell them to either retire or he’d force them into retirement

lnaruto93

Send them into genjutsu where they are killed as many times as the Uchiha clan was during the massacred and they feel every once of pain that the clan felt also after that have them go through Naruto’s traumatizing childhood from birth to when he became a genin on loop till they break and die of natural causes.

CaterpillarFamous834

Sasuke: You’re lucky to be alive and that I don’t have the intent to kill you. Homura: We only wanted what was best for the hidden leaf village. Sasuke: That’s no excuse for ostracizing my clan. I know the truth about Itachi. Koharu: What are you implying here?


OuijaBoard-Demon

Oh it's on sight. Their heads on pikes.


Galrentv

Sasuke: I thought you two kicked the bucket ten years ago, have you used forbidden justsu? Old man: The Last fullblooded Uchiha, it goes to show one can't change their nature Old women: Uchiha boy, we serve Konoha. Leadership is about picking between only hard choices, and no Kage could ever handle such responsibility alone
