"This information was obtained from Danzo after he was released from control, following that night. You were hospitalized at the time, so you may have missed it..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi spoke calmly, his aged face revealing not a single flaw.
"Ah."
"Don't joke around, Hokage."
Huang Leng snorted, interrupting the old man's self-talk.
This interruption caused Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression to stiffen.
"Both Shisui and Itachi Uchiha have worked under you. You should know their abilities and strength better than anyone else, right?"
"Does someone like Itachi really think he can defeat Shisui?"
The boy stared intently at the old man in his field of vision, his slightly reddened pupils appearing particularly dangerous.
Upon hearing this, the Third Hokage's expression softened slightly.
If it's just this kind of questioning...
Then,
It's just a child's tantrum!
"Indeed, Shisui's strength is beyond question, and he has accumulated a wealth of combat experience on the eastern border. Under normal circumstances, Itachi Uchiha would not have the strength to kill him."
"But that traitor was too well hidden!"
"They even did such terrifying things to the Uchiha clan. Is this something you or I could have imagined?"
"Itachi must have taken advantage of this, taking advantage of Shisui's trust in him, to assassinate him."
By the end, Hiruzen Sarutobi was completely filled with righteous indignation.
Because that guy deceived himself too!
He had already awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan long ago, but he never reported it!
Despite being in the Akatsuki organization, not a single message has been sent back!
If he didn't still have Sasuke as a bargaining chip, he would have long ago let the Uchiha Ara tear each other apart!
"Heh, it seems that the Hokage has a very high opinion of Itachi Uchiha."
Huang maintained his sarcastic tone.
"To pass the Dark Division's test at the age of eleven and gain the approval of his teammate, that guy truly deserves the title of genius."
The third generation, unaware of the situation, readily accepted the position, and everything he said was true.
"However, I recently discovered a clue about the eye that Brother Zhishui lost."
"What do you think we should do?"
"Once it's confirmed."
"Oh, right, that person wasn't Uchiha Itachi!"
The boy's body involuntarily took a step forward, his dark pupils, which resembled those of an old man, revealing a calm madness—a complex state of two extreme emotions intertwined.
If it weren't for that slender hand constantly transmitting his body heat, he was really afraid he wouldn't be able to control his murderous intent.
silence.
Staring into those close, crazed eyes, Hiruzen Sarutobi, unusually, did not respond immediately.
Is this a test?
Or do they already know everything?
He was somewhat unsure about the other party's background.
Or rather, this little guy has always been transcending his own understanding and judgment of it.
From the northern border to the land of rain, and then to the eastern defense line!
"That must be related to Shisui's death."
"If it is confirmed that the person's eyes belong to Uchiha Shisui's Sharingan, then we should naturally ask them more questions."
"After all, this is not only a grudge against the Uchiha clan, but also a grudge against Konoha!"
After a short while, Hiruzen Sarutobi finally answered in a deep voice.
And I've already made up my mind.
We'll have Danzo remove those eyes later, otherwise, if they're exposed in public one day, it will tarnish the image of the entire Konoha leadership.
"Um,"
“I have indeed remembered what the Third Hokage said.”
Huang suppressed his hostility.
It's not the right time yet.
but,
Soon!
We're almost there!
With control of two ninja villages, over a hundred bloodline limit users, and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, he already possesses the foundation to confront Konoha head-on!
All that's left is that guy.
That genius who once belonged to Konoha!!
"So, what is the reason that Lord Hokage has personally gotten up at this moment?"
Huang, having suppressed his hostility, also changed his tone.
This was also a question in his mind, as he believed he had not touched any restrictions when he left.
Moreover, after explaining to the cat demon the people and things he was looking for, and after using the kaleidoscope to copy knowledge about medicine and sensory ninjutsu to Karin and Honoka, he immediately rushed back without doing anything else or lingering.
If I had to say there was something that went beyond the plan,
That's Kisame Hoshigaki!
Did the Akatsuki make some move during this period, causing Konoha to become nervous as well?
"Well, speaking of which, the younger generation of the Uchiha clan has been graduating from the Ninja Academy one after another. According to the usual practice, they should be assigned instructors and start performing some daily tasks."
"This will also alleviate the financial burden on the clan."
Hiruzen Sarutobi responded calmly.
This was the explanation he had prepared before he arrived.
There are many reasons for this.
By scattering the younger generation of the Uchiha clan and weakening their cohesion, we can cultivate these youngsters' friendship and sense of belonging to their comrades and the Konoha family.
Of course, it's normal to suffer some losses in tasks with unclear difficulty.
"What do you think, Chief Wilderness?"
He conveniently deflected the question.
"Indeed."
Huang nodded slightly.
"However, I have plenty of time during my confinement. I'll send them out on missions after I've trained them all."
"To avoid embarrassing the Uchiha and Konoha later."
"As for funds, the clan's reserves are sufficient, so there's no need for the third generation to worry about it."
At the same time, he added slowly.
It should be noted that he himself encountered quite a few shady dealings during his past missions.
The most striking example was on the northern border!
Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression clearly changed slightly.
"Since Chief Huang already has his own plan, I will not interfere."
"Of course, we can't continue to be so clueless about romance."
"That's all for today. I'll come back to visit at a better time next time."
After saying that, he walked back the way he came with his hands behind his back.
What we see today needs to be carefully analyzed, especially the attitude of the Kurama clan and Danzo's perspective.
"Okay, no need to see me out."
A bland and indifferent response.
However, just as the old man was about to disappear into the darkness:
"By the way, Hokage."
"Did those ANBU ninjas who accompanied me cause any trouble in my clan's territory?"
Before a reply could come from the darkness, he coldly added to himself:
"It's best if there isn't one."
