Danzo Shimura was used to resolving problems underground, but he seemed to have forgotten that if he wanted to become Hokage... he couldn't use such methods.
Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't enlighten Danzo because his old comrade still had great value to him. To prevent Danzo from being implicated, he specifically reminded Danzo of the Uchiha clan's involvement and told him to be careful.
As for how much of Danzo's advice he actually took to heart, no one knows.
...
Due to the assassination attempt, the Hyuga family quit smoking again.
Hyuga Kazutaka was under close surveillance, and the person in charge of the house repairs was naturally changed to Hyuga Hizashi, Shinichi's most trusted confidant.
During this time, Hizashi was also quietly investigating those who had been in contact with Kazutaka. This group of craftsmen had also come into the Hyuga family's sights, and they began to have people secretly investigate the identities and backgrounds of these people.
Kazuhiro's interpersonal relationships are very simple, and the investigation is not very difficult. Among his many connections, the only ones who can be considered complete outsiders are these craftsmen in front of him.
Kurama Unkai disguised himself as a laborer and did not show any abnormality, but as a member of Root, he keenly sensed that the Hyuga clan's attention seemed to be focused on their group, and he couldn't help but feel a tightness in his heart.
"Has it been discovered?"
"If they were discovered, they would probably take immediate action."
Is it surveillance?
Sensing the Hyuga clan's wariness of these craftsmen, Kurama Unkai also began to have second thoughts.
The plan probably can't continue; we need to find another way.
However... just as he finished his work for the day, he was cornered at the entrance of the Hyuga clan's territory by several Uchiha ninjas.
Leading the group was Uchiha Fugaku, followed by five elite Uchiha warriors.
Without a doubt... a grand affair.
"Come with us. Kurama Chuxing must really miss his younger brother!"

Chapter 95 The Cursed Seal Erupts, Silencing the Witnesses! (Please Subscribe)
At the gate of the Hyuga clan's territory, Fugaku Uchiha, along with several elite members of the clan, stopped Kurama Unkai, who had just finished working and was walking out of the Hyuga clan's territory.
Yesterday, when Fugaku Uchiha accepted the commission from the Hyuga clan, he had a vague idea about the assassin's technique. That afternoon, he went to the Kurama clan to confirm his guess.
Kurama Tsurugi, the head of the Kurama clan, personally received him and, upon hearing his purpose, did not conceal the fact that he was his younger brother. Kurama Unkai had not appeared in their clan since he was taken away by Root ninjas as a child.
Throughout the entire Kurama clan, only Kurama Unkai has awakened his bloodline limit.
Upon receiving this information, Fugaku Uchiha also investigated the people around the Hyuga clan and ordered his men to closely monitor the comings and goings of people from both inside and outside the Hyuga clan.
These craftsmen responsible for repairing the houses were not only being watched by the Hyuga clan, but Fugaku Uchiha also sent people to keep an eye on them.
After several verifications, Fugaku Uchiha finally confirmed Kurama Unkai's identity today and led his men to arrest him.
The arrest operation took place right in front of the Hyuga clan's gate, and the guards on duty naturally noticed it. However, they did not intervene to stop the Uchiha's actions, and one guard immediately returned to the clan to report to his superiors.
Outside the door, Kurama Unkai, seeing that his identity had been exposed by the Uchiha clan members in front of him, no longer had any intention of hiding his identity. He flicked his hand, and the hammer in his hand slammed directly towards the leader, Uchiha Fugaku.
"Grab him, don't let him get away."
The moment the opponent made their move, Fugaku Uchiha's Sharingan with its three tomoe appeared in his eyes. He slightly turned his head and effortlessly dodged the attack.
As he gave the order, the eyes of his subordinates behind him all flashed with tomoe, revealing that they were all users of the three-tomoe Sharingan, and were all elite members of the Uchiha clan.
The group worked in perfect coordination, rushing towards the sea of clouds from different directions.
Kurama Unkai, who had undergone rigorous training at Root, was naturally not going to sit idly by. Although he didn't have a drawing board at hand and couldn't use his ability to materialize illusions, as a ninja, he still had conventional methods.
In front of Fugaku Uchiha, Kurama Unkai reached out and grabbed a craftsman next to him, pulling him in front of him. Using an ordinary person as a human shield, Kurama Unkai quickly pulled out a pencil from his pocket and swiftly drew a lightning bolt on the back of the "human shield".
At that very moment, lightning suddenly flashed in the bright sunlight, and a bolt of lightning struck down instantly, hitting Anma Yunhai right next to him.
Just as a fast-moving Uchiha elite was getting close to Kurama Unkai, he was struck by the lightning and fell to the ground, completely losing his fighting ability.
The change happened far too fast. The sudden lightning strike caused the other Uchiha members' expressions to change drastically, and they couldn't help but pause in their forward advance.
As he conjured the illusion, Anma Yunhai's face was also pale, and blood was flowing from his nostrils. However, his paintbrush never stopped, using the back of the flesh shield as a canvas, and in just a few breaths, he had already drawn a long sword.
While depicting a knife, the left hand holds the knife with the blade pressed against the craftsman's neck.
"Stop it, or I'll kill this guy."
Outsiders would probably find it hard to imagine that Kurama Unkai would actually try to use an ordinary person to coerce the Uchiha into stopping. For the proud Uchiha, would the life of an outsider be so important in the face of the success or failure of a mission?
Most importantly, one of their clansmen was struck by the Saddle Cloud Sea's magic and is now barely breathing, on the verge of death.
Would the Uchiha clan stop fighting at a time like this?!
Fugaku Uchiha's expression was cold and stern, his scarlet eyes fixed on Kurama Unkai. At this moment, the other craftsmen who had come out with him from the Hyuga clan's territory had long since disappeared. Only Kurama Unkai and the young worker who had been taken hostage were left in the center.
The other Uchiha members glanced at their clan leader, both intimidated by his strange abilities and eager to inquire about Fugaku's handling of the hostages.
"Ignore them, prioritize the target!"
"Attack freely, kills are permitted!"
Fugaku Uchiha glanced in the direction of the Hyuga clan's territory, then quickly looked away and spoke.
His son is currently staying at the Hyuga family's residence, how could he allow dangerous individuals to roam freely on the Hyuga family's property!
Moreover, doing this is also a way of repaying the Hyuga clan for their trust in the Uchiha.
Since the Nine-Tails' attack, although the other clans in Konoha didn't say it outright, they had been silently ostracizing the Uchiha through various actions. Fugaku, who often represented the Uchiha in meetings, felt this most acutely.
Therefore, Fugaku greatly appreciated the goodwill and trust shown by the Hyuga clan.
Compared to the safety of the Hyuga family and his own son, the life of an ordinary person seems less important.
With the clan leader giving the order, the other Uchiha members also stopped holding back, firing shuriken at Kurama Unkai while another Uchiha elite rapidly formed hand seals and unleashed a powerful fireball attack.
"Tch..." Once a hostage loses its effect, continuing to hold onto them not only offers no benefit but also becomes a burden.
Anma Yunhai swiftly tore the hostage's clothes and threw them in the direction from which the shuriken came. As he retreated rapidly, his paintbrush never stopped moving.
The hostages were struck by shuriken and kunai that were thrown out, and fell into a pool of blood with a scream. At the same time, an earthen wall rose from the ground without warning, blocking the incoming fireball technique.
"boom!!!"
As sparks flew, earthen spikes rapidly sprouted from the earthen wall, bursting out like machine guns towards Fugaku and the others the instant the sparks flew.
"Let's go!!"
The opponent's offensive was fierce, but Fugaku, with his Sharingan's insight, had already noticed something amiss and gave precise instructions.
The Uchiha who were preparing to besiege Kurama Unkai all retreated, and a look of hope appeared in his eyes as he successfully forced the enemy to retreat.
They can escape!
Even surrounded by Uchiha elites, he felt he could escape.
Blood kept flowing from his nostrils, pooling at his chin and dripping onto the stone bricks. He felt extremely weak, but Anma Yunhai's mind remained perfectly clear.
Just as they were about to leave, several dark figures suddenly leaped out from the Hyuga clan's territory.
A small, thin figure was the fastest, and in the blink of an eye, he had already reached the back of Anma Yunhai.
As Kurama Unkai, sensing something amiss, hurriedly turned around, he only saw a pair of deep blue eyes staring intently at him. The next instant, a terrifying force came from his lower back, and amidst the excruciating pain, darkness quickly swallowed his consciousness.
"boom!!!"
Kurama Unkai was sent flying by a palm strike from Hyuga Shinichi, who arrived at lightning speed. He crashed directly into the earthen wall with a loud bang.
Kurama Unkai, who was directly hit by the Soft Fist, was completely incapacitated and fell into a deep coma.
Seeing this, the surrounding Uchiha clans exchanged glances and then stopped fighting. Without needing Fugaku's instructions, the few who were in better condition, along with their companion who had been struck by lightning and the laborer lying in a pool of blood, headed towards the Konoha Hospital.
"Truly outstanding—" From the moment Hyuga Shinichi appeared to the moment he made his move, it was only a blink of an eye. His speed was so fast that even Kurama Unkai, an elite member of Root, couldn't react in time.
Fugaku's Sharingan saw everything Shinichi did, and it was precisely because he could see it clearly that he was so moved.
Fugaku was well aware of the power of the Hyuga clan's Gentle Fist, but Shinichi's level of instantaneous speed at his age far exceeded his expectations.
At least... his genius son's current speed is far from comparable to Shinichi Hyuga's.
"Chief Fugaku."
"Is this the assassin who attacked our Hyuga clan?"
Shinichi Hyuga naturally rushed over after hearing his subordinate's report, but he still needed to confirm the specifics with Fugaku.
"Yes, this person is called Kurama Unkai. He's the one who attacked Hyuga using his bloodline limit ability."
Pommel horse?
Shinichi recognized the surname; he thought it was a small ninja clan in the village. However, Shinichi couldn't recall any conflict between the Hyuga clan and the other party that would require them to send someone to assassinate him.
A thought flashed through his mind, and Shinichi immediately remembered something. He said to Hyuga Keisuke, who was rushing over behind him, "Keisuke, go check that guy's tongue!"
"Is there a mark that will eradicate the root of trouble through the tongue?"
Shinichi Hyuga realized something, and his face darkened.
Fugaku Uchiha, upon hearing the name "Tongue-Severing Seal," looked at Shinichi with some surprise. This child... seems to know quite a lot!
Hyuga Keisuke acted swiftly, quickly reaching the earthen wall and pulling Kurama Unkai's body out of the pit. Realizing that the other was still breathing, Keisuke became more alert and quickly pried open the other's mouth to check his tongue.
After flipping the bottle over, Hyuga Keisuke, who hadn't seen the cursed seal, shook his head in the direction of Shinichi.
