The Senju remnants of the Uchiha clan

Chapter 125 Akatsuki? You can ask me!

Konoha Village, a secret storage room deep in the Root Base.

The white bird casually admired the "collections" here with a satisfied look on his face.

I have to say, there are really a lot of good things in the Root. It seems that Danzo has got a lot of them over the years.

Hashirama's cells, mystical scrolls, the chakra of various tailed beasts... and even two Sharingan sealed in a jar!

Theoretically, these things should be confiscated and should be handled by the Hokage personally, but now Sarutobi Hiruzen is still lying in the hospital, so no one dares to say anything about Shiratori's behavior.

...Well, even after Sarutobi Hiruzen was discharged from the hospital, he probably wouldn't dare to do that.

Besides, as the chief of the Konoha Security Department, Shiratori himself represents "public", so he accepted these things with a smile.

As one of the conditions for providing evidence, he would have to send a copy of some things to Orochimaru...that was impossible!
Just find some scraps as a token of your appreciation, do you really want the good stuff?
Not satisfied? Then come over and challenge me!

When the body of Senju Torashiro was stolen by Orochimaru, Shiratori didn't say anything. The body of the leader of the Senju clan has been given away, and you, Orochimaru, still want to go further?
Haha...you’re dreaming!

dong dong dong-

"Enter."

"Master Shiratori." An Uchiha ninja knocked on the door and walked in, saying respectfully, "Director Nono, the orphanage's pharmacist, wants to see you."

"Oh, I see."

Shiratori put down the jar in his hand - he didn't know whose severed hand was soaked in it. He locked the door and left, and met the pharmacist Nono in the office that originally belonged to Danzo Shimura.

There was a little boy about ten years old following Nono.

"Nono-san, what's going on?"

There are still many children imprisoned in the Root who have not been completely brainwashed. Shiratori handed them over to the pharmacist Nono to deal with - those with relatives were immediately sent home, and those who were orphans were placed in an orphanage.

"Master Shiratori, I'm sorry to bother you. I'm here because of this child..."

Nono rubbed the head of the little boy next to him: "His name is Aburame Tone, from the Aburame clan, but..."

"I don't want to go back to my family!" Aburame Tone raised her head stubbornly: "They abandoned me, so I will abandon them too!"

The white bird observed the other party with interest.

This is the Oil Girl Togen, who can control nano-sized poisonous insects...

He nodded: "I understand, Dean Nono, let this little guy live in the orphanage for the time being. I will go talk to Teacher Zhiwei."

He was still somewhat interested in this little guy.

"Yes, Lord Shiratori."

Aburame Tone also followed Nono's example and bowed, "Thank you, Shiratori-sama."

After the two left, Shiratori sat on Shimura Danzo's chair and said to the door, "What are you doing sneaking around? Come in if you have anything to say."

Uchiha Itachi walked in shyly.

"Hey...isn't this my dear cousin Uchiha Itachi? Finally willing to see me? What do you want to see me for?" Shiratori joked.

"Shiratori, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have kept it from you..."

Itachi apologized first, then took out a letter: "This is what my father asked me to pass on to you before he left."

Shiratori opened the letter in front of Itachi. He wanted to see what Uchiha Fugaku was trying to do.

.........

On a small hill outside Konoha Village.

Here, Shiratori met the former head of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Fugaku, the S-rank rebel ninja of Konoha Village. "So... Uncle Fugaku doesn't trust me? Are you afraid that I can't withstand the pressure from those ninja families? Just like the Sandaime treated the Hyuga clan back then, and handed you over to calm the situation?"

Fugaku smiled and said, "Of course not. After you defeated Sarutobi Hiruzen, no one in the entire Konoha Village can force you and the Uchiha clan. Moreover, the end of the Shimura clan has a great deterrent effect. Even if those ninjas are dissatisfied with you, they probably won't dare to show it on their faces."

"Then why...

"Because I need to become a rebel ninja and leave Konoha in a 'reasonable' way."

"What's the purpose?"

Fugaku's expression became serious. "During the years when you were away from the village from time to time, there was a man wearing a mask, revealing a Mangekyō Sharingan. He called himself Uchiha Madara and wanted me to join their organization."

Hearing this, Shiratori looked annoyed.

really!

If there is internal trouble, it’s Danzo’s fault; if there is external trouble, it’s Obito’s fault, that’s for sure!

Now the maggot in Konoha Village is dead, but the one outside the village is still alive and well.

"Do you... believe it? I'm talking about the fact that he called himself Uchiha Madara."

Fugaku smiled and shook his head.

If it was the real Uchiha Madara, then the way of recruiting would not be such a peaceful one. The other party would beat him half to death, then pinch his neck and arrogantly ask him if he was willing to surrender.

only……

"I have seen him once. During the Nine-Tails Rebellion, he briefly appeared above the Nine-Tails' head, and I saw him... The only one who can summon the Nine-Tails is Uchiha Madara, so even if he is not, he must have some connection with Uchiha Madara..."

Shiratori nodded, Fugaku's guess was basically correct.

Fugaku continued:

"He promised me that if I was willing to join the organization called Akatsuki, he would find an opportunity to kill you, let me take sole power in the clan, and then cooperate with him to disrupt the situation in Konoha.
Even if I fail, he will help me take revenge on you and even the entire Uchiha clan... I can see that he has inexplicable hostility and even hatred towards the Uchiha clan, so I think..."

"So you want to leave Konoha in this way and join the Akatsuki organization to gather intelligence? To prevent them from doing something that will harm the family?"

Shiratori felt a little overwhelmed.

Rather than saying that Obito hates the Uchiha clan, it would be more accurate to say that he hates the entire world.

That beast is a severe psychopath!
And... join Akatsuki to gather intelligence?

What information do you want?
Ask me! I have it all! I know things that even their leaders don't know!
Why bother?! He even defected...

Looking at Shiratori's expression, Fugaku asked uncertainly: "Shiratori... you seem to know this organization?"

"I have some understanding..." Shiratori answered weakly.

At this point, he could only choose to cooperate with Fugaku's actions. After all, even though Sarutobi Hiruzen was lying on the hospital bed, he ordered his men to rush to make a wanted order for Fugaku overnight, fearing that he would be blamed if something went wrong...

Shiratori promised to take good care of Fugaku's relatives, and gave some instructions, such as pay attention to safety, don't believe their lies, and if you are exposed, escape back to Konoha in time and I will protect you...

After he left, Fugaku sat on the top of the mountain until dusk and sunset, when a ripple of space distortion descended on the place.

A masked man who calls himself 'Uchiha Madara' appears behind Fugaku.

"Uchiha Fugaku, are you desperate about this world?"

Fugaku couldn't help but scratch his forehead.

Well, Shiratori is right, this guy is a psychopath as soon as he opens his mouth...
