Uchiha Akaishi Tour

"This is utter nonsense!"

"You're not young anymore, yet you've been training on the battlefield for so long..."

"How could they possibly do something like this—breaking the seal on a classified department without authorization?"

"I know, because Shimura always has a cold face and isn't good at expressing himself, you all think he's a bad person..."

"But do you know how hard he worked for Konoha?"

In his office, the Third Generation Leader sternly reprimanded Akaishi and Ranmai.

Akashi remained silent, but Lanwu couldn't help but say, "But the root... the curse mark of 'Tongue Curse Eradication'..."

Even though she remembered that the Wood Release experiment should not be mentioned, Lan Wu still couldn't help but refute it.

"So... don't you understand where you went wrong?" the Third Hokage said even more sternly.

Lan Wu pursed her lips, clearly unconvinced.

Akaishi added from the side, "That's right, we were too impulsive... Actually, after calming down, I understood the situation. We should have reported this to the Hokage. He would have handled it properly. We shouldn't have acted on our own."

Hearing Akaishi say this, the Third Hokage nodded, his anger subsiding.

"That's right. I've already criticized Danzo regarding Root's internal management. As for you... this is a one-time exception!" The Third Hokage's tone became even more serious as he said this: "You are not allowed to interfere in Root's affairs again!"

"Don't worry, Hokage, we will definitely take this as a warning. But Nonou..." Akaishi seemed to completely disregard Root and that he had only caused this incident because of his friendship with Yakushi Nonou.

The Third Generation looked at Nonou, and his expression immediately became much kinder.

"Nonou, Shimura's actions are inevitably biased because of Konoha's interests. You may have suffered a lot of grievances while working in Root. Don't worry... Not only will you leave Root in the future, but I have also ordered Shimura to reform Root's ninja system. We must uphold the Will of Fire, and ninjas who want to leave Root can do so in an orderly manner," the Third Hokage comforted him.

"Lord Hokage, you are wise." Nono complimented him without batting an eye—of course, she didn't take it seriously.

Seeing Nono's composure, the Third Hokage was momentarily speechless, then said, "After that..."

Seeing the Third Hokage's pensive expression, Akaishi reminded him, "Hokage, Shimura Danzo may still have some misunderstandings about Nonou. Moreover, Nonou receives special training, unlike ordinary ninjas. I think it would be better to let her join your direct ANBU."

"It's 'Shimura's Assistant'," the Third Hokage corrected, glaring at Akaishi.

The Third Hokage then looked at Nonou and asked, "The Anbu... Nonou, what do you think?"

"I hope to share the burden for the Hokage!" Nono immediately agreed.

"Okay, then you'll be in charge from now on..." The third generation nodded in agreement.

Although it wasn't explicitly stated, Hiruzen Sarutobi understood that Akaishi's misunderstanding of Danzo was something that couldn't be resolved in just a few words. The reason he suggested that Nono join the Anbu was to provide her with a layer of protection so that Root wouldn't cause her any more trouble in the future.

The incident where the three encountered Root at the village entrance had only recently occurred, but the Third Boss had already received a report before they entered.

The Third Generation leader hadn't yet decided what Nono would be responsible for, but...

"If the Hokage trusts me, I can take responsibility... The Konoha orphanage not only cares for Konoha's orphans, but also for other orphans who have gone through the adoption process and passed the review and deserve care. There should be a place to raise these children in a unified manner!" Nono said proactively.

Not to mention the Third Generation, even Akaishi and Ranmai looked at Nonou with surprise upon hearing this.

orphan?

These are resources that Danzo usually keeps an eye on.

The purpose was supposedly to screen orphans from enemy countries for potential spies, but after the screening, none of them were released. The Third Hokage usually turned a blind eye, and Danzo even coveted the orphans within Konoha.

However, now Nono has proposed to take charge of the orphanage, and this orphanage will not only take in all the orphans in Konoha, but also other orphans.

Where should we receive it?

Although it wasn't explicitly stated, it's clear that if the orphanage is actually established and Root doesn't hand over any of its resources, Nonou has every reason to file a complaint!

only……

Before, Nono seemed to be very afraid of Root and Danzo Shimura...

In that instant, the Third Hokage even suspected that Danzo was plotting against him!

However, upon seeing Nonou's determined gaze, Sarutobi immediately understood.

It's not that Nonou isn't afraid anymore, but rather that she has things she wants to do more than just be afraid.

"Yes, I've been thinking about the orphanage thing lately. You should join the planning team too," Sarutobi nodded.

Konoha didn't have an orphanage before.

After all, Konoha hadn't experienced any major wars in the previous thirty years, so there weren't that many orphans—the largest number of orphans came from the Uchiha's internal strife, but they resolved it themselves without Konoha having to take care of them.

Over the past thirty years, the number of civilian ninjas has increased dramatically. Then came five years of intense warfare. These civilian ninjas had no families, which resulted in a large number of orphans.

At first, the third generation was somewhat hesitant about this issue...

After all, if Konoha were in his hands and an orphanage were established, wouldn't that make him look incompetent?

Danzo had previously offered a timely and "thoughtful" suggestion that Root could raise these orphaned commoners who had no one to care for them.

Sarutobi had always hesitated about this—although he believed Danzo was acting for Konoha's sake, he did indeed "occasionally" act in a biased way.

Now that this has happened, the third generation leader no longer hesitates and has decided to establish the orphanage separately!

……

Emerging from the Third Generation's office, Nonou, who had been cautious, became full of ambition.

Seeing this, Akaishi reminded him, "If you encounter any difficulties after the orphanage is established, you can consult with our security department!"

Whether orphans are being bullied or targeted by certain "bad organizations," the Security Department can handle it... and is adept at handling these matters.

"Mm." Nono nodded.

If it were for her own sake, Nono might not have accepted the Uchiha clan's help so easily, but for the sake of the children...

At the same time, the look in Nonou's eyes as she looked at Akaishi and Ranmai became increasingly gentle and grateful.

Little did they know that when Akashi and Lanwu heard that she was going to take charge of the orphanage, they too felt grateful...

Akaishi and Ranma paid a price for rescuing her from Root. Not only was they severely marked as "major dereliction of duty" in the "Ninja Handbook," but they were also ordered by the Third Hokage to reflect on their actions behind closed doors.

While they weren't really going to close the door, they wouldn't be able to "swagger around" in Konoha for at least the next period of time, until their next mission.

And a "major dereliction of duty" is something one can only imagine, and one would have to wait until after the war to "make amends" when rewards are given for meritorious service.

However, Lan Wu didn't take it to heart, and neither did Chi Shi!

"Oh right, so now you don't even have a place to stay, Nono?" Akaishi suddenly remembered something.

Normally, when Nono is in the village, she stays at the Root camp, but now she obviously can't go back.

"My house is quite big..." Akaishi felt that setting aside a room wouldn't be a problem.

"Stay at my place!" Lan Wu said immediately.

"Eh? Well... you're an orphan anyway." Akaishi nodded—the Ranma family was bigger, after all, it used to be the Tobirama family.

Lan Wu glared at him—can't you speak properly?

……

After the three left, Danzo went to Hiruzen Sarutobi's office with a dark expression.

However, before Danzo could speak this time, Hiruzen Sarutobi said first, "Danzo, I've said it before... Yakushi Nonou has already left Root. I don't want to see what happened at the village entrance a second time."

Clearly, Sarutobi was also very dissatisfied with Root's actions just now—he could tolerate Danzo's petty tricks, but... he could not tolerate Danzo ignoring his clear orders!

"Hiruzen, how many resources did our Root organization spend to cultivate an elite..." Danzo wanted to explain further.

"Are you saying you need me to compensate you?" Sarutobi asked with a dark expression.

Upon hearing this, Danzo quickly softened his tone and said, "Of course not, what I mean is... most importantly, she also knows many of Root's secrets..."

"Alright! Then you tell me, what Root secrets does she know? Let me see if they match up!" Hiruzen Sarutobi scoffed.

Upon hearing Hiruzen's words, Danzo realized that that bastard, Katsuki, must have told Hiruzen about the "orphan of an enemy country"!

Danzo only knew that Shishi was paying attention to the orphans' situation, but he did not know that she had discovered the "Wood Release experiment".

but……

"She had inquired about the Wood Release experiment before, and I suspect she told Lan Wu about it!" Danzo said with a dark face—he didn't know, but... it was a complete setup.

Hiruzen frowned upon hearing this, but still shook his head, saying, "Impossible. If Lanwu knew, she would have already slammed her fist on my table!"

Danzo: ...

Danzo wanted to say that it would be terrible if they didn't film it, but... he couldn't bring himself to say it.

Although Hiruzen lifted the ban on his "Wood Release experiments," he also limited the scale. Root had a "secret laboratory" within Konoha, which was all Hiruzen knew about, and very few people had died there...

The real big culprits are in the real secret laboratory outside the village, where the number of deaths is enough to push Hiruzen's acceptable limit!

The experiment in the village at least screened qualified individuals and then cautiously conducted trials. A total of three test subjects died, all of whom were voluntary and their deaths could indeed be considered "accidents." In contrast, the research outside the village was purely using human lives to test and select qualified subjects in batches.

But Danzo didn't dare say these things to Hiruzen...
