"Brother Haneda, are you free tonight?" Asuma asked.
"tonight?"
Haneda thought for a moment. He had to deal with Shisui and Danzo's matter tonight, so he said...
"I'm a bit busy tonight, so there's no need for dinner invitations, Asuma."
"Actually, I would be happy if you just gave me your blessing regarding our relationship."
Asma said unhappily:
"Oh, Brother Haneda!"
"Life needs a sense of ritual. You're about to become Hokage, so you can't just go through the motions!"
"Let me think about it carefully..."
Asuma had a sudden inspiration, remembering that the old man had mentioned the Hokage to him, and smiled.
"Brother Haneda! I'll come find you tonight!!"
After saying that, Asma ran off.
Kakashi clicked his tongue a few times and said to Haneda:
"How about we go out for lunch together to celebrate?"
Haneda, thinking about Shisui and Danzo, gently tapped Kakashi's forehead:
"Forgive me, Kakashi, maybe next time."
Kakashi's face darkened, but then he noticed a man with shimmering hair and instantly flew away using Flying Thunder God Technique.
"Haneda! How about a youthful showdown to celebrate your upcoming succession as Hokage?!"
"Now that you've become Hokage, we can't have any more passionate battles! Waaah~"
Kai hugged Haneda, looking extremely grief-stricken.
Haneda's forehead creased with annoyance. He grabbed Kai's arm and said:
“I, Uchiha Haneda, keep my word. As long as you defeat Kakashi, I will agree to a duel with you.”
"This is a promise we've kept for over ten years, Kai!!"
"Really?" Kai looked at Haneda seriously. "But you'll be the Hokage in the future, so I won't be able to go all out anymore, Haneda!"
"Don't worry, the outcome was already decided when I accepted your challenge," Haneda said with a nonchalant smile.
"Alright! I've saved a move specifically for you. I'll come find you after I defeat Kakashi!!"
"Huh?" Haneda's confident smile froze instantly.
Could the move Kai mentioned be... Night Kai?
"Ahem... You should leave it to Kakashi, Guy!"
Haneda used Flying Thunder God Technique to instantly take Fugaku, who was still somewhat bewildered, away.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived at Haneda's house.
"Brother Fugaku, do you remember what I asked you to do before?"
"You mean Shisui?"
Haneda nodded:
"Let's lift the security measures within the Uchiha clan this morning."
"In the afternoon, you announced in the clan that, in order to celebrate my upcoming succession as Hokage, you proposed that everyone in the clan prepare a special gift for me."
"I will also be parading through the streets this afternoon to promote my upcoming succession as the fifth generation leader."
Haneda asked his clansmen to prepare gifts for him, but he didn't really want the gifts.
His plan was to divert the people monitoring Shisui so that Root ninjas could infiltrate and lure Shisui away.
The afternoon parade was intended to weaken Danzo's guard against him.
After all, Haneda had already gained the approval of all the Jonin, and the Third Hokage had announced the results.
Celebrating the succession to Hokage and the ostentatious parade are both reasonable.
"Okay, I'll make the arrangements."
Fugaku smiled and assured him.
He pondered what gift he should give Haneda...
…………
After Fugaku left, Haneda sent someone to inform Shisui to come and see him.
To ensure the plan goes as smoothly as possible, Haneda's wooden clone remains inside the house.
His true form is hidden elsewhere.
Not long after someone was sent to inform them, Shisui arrived.
He already knew that Haneda was about to succeed as the Fifth Hokage, and said with obvious respect in his tone:
"Haneda-sama."
Haneda nodded slightly, a gentle smile on his face:
"I heard from Brother Fugaku that you made great contributions in the war in Kirigakure, and the ninjas in Kirigakure even call you Shisui of the Body Flicker."
"Like me, they became famous at a young age."
"Lord Haneda, you flatter me. Compared to the reputation of Lord Haneda and Lord Kakashi as the Twin Stars of Konoha, I still have a lot to learn," Shisui said modestly.
Upon hearing about the Konoha Twins, Haneda smiled and got down to business:
"You should be aware of the Uchiha clan's recent surveillance of you and the clan's vigilance, right?"
"Actually, I'm not trying to guard against your pupil technique. I'm mainly worried that some treacherous and cunning people might try to harm you and take your eyes."
"Lord Haneda, are you referring to Elder Danzo?"
Haneda glanced at Shisui, who still respected Danzo, and thought to himself that the child was still too naive.
However, after this experience, he might finally see through the inherently evil Danzo and become devoted to following him.
Haneda had no intention of changing Shisui's mind; he feigned advice:
"I know Danzo, the old man from the Shimura clan, who is inherently evil, all too well."
“He started targeting me when I was five years old.”
"Twelve years ago, that old devil tried to seize power and assassinate the third generation leader. In the process, I also suffered the consequences and was assassinated by people from the Root!"
"Seven years ago, in the Land of Rain, Danzo conspired with two bounty hunters to ambush me and Uncle Sakumo, who is also the hero of Konoha, White Fang, in order to kill me."
"They even sent Root ninjas to handle the aftermath, as if they were afraid I wouldn't die!"
"Three years ago, I killed Danzo in front of everyone at a Jonin meeting, but he came back to life. He didn't die!"
"In fact, he stole our Uchiha Sharingan and used Izanagi to forcibly change his fate of death."
"You should be able to guess where his Sharingan in his right eye came from, right?"
“I can tell you definitively that these are all facts.”
"As the future Hokage, I will not deceive you."
Haneda patted Shisui on the shoulder, his face full of worry, and said:
“In the years I’ve been away, you’ve become too involved with Root and Danzo. I’m really worried that Danzo will attack you and take your eyes.”
"Lord Haneda, actually Danzo..." Shisui tried to defend Danzo.
Haneda waved his hand, interrupting:
“I know about your grandfather’s relationship with the Third Hokage, Danzo.”
"But these relationships are all with the older generation, and they may not really care about you."
"Think carefully about what I'm saying. You'll soon realize that I'm right."
After saying that, Haneda let Shisui leave.
Whether he listens to me or not is his business; Yuda has already tried to persuade him.
He glanced at the clock on the wall; it was almost noon. Why not have lunch with Kakashi?
Haneda created another wooden clone, which lurked in the shadows and followed Shisui.
At the same time, his true form used the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport to Kakashi's house.

root base.
When news of the Jonin meeting arrived, Danzo's face was so gloomy it seemed like water could drip from it.
