Naruto: My Chat Group Spans History...

------Year 58 of Konoha------

In the Hokage's office, Hiruzen Sarutobi was enjoying a moment of peace, occasionally taking a puff from his pipe with a satisfied expression.

But this rare moment of peace was quickly shattered by a sudden burst of noise.

A figure, too lazy to even announce their arrival, simply pushed open the door and barged in, as if the core area of ​​Konoha had become a bustling marketplace, freely coming and going.

Hiruzen's brows immediately furrowed, and even after recognizing Danzo as the newcomer, his expression did not improve.

"Danzo, where have your rules gone?" Hiruzen asked indifferently, his tone full of displeasure.

Danzo seemed oblivious to Hiruzen's displeasure, striding up to him and looking him directly in the eye.

"Hiruzen, have you noticed the recent movements of the Uchiha clan?"

A hint of helplessness flashed across Hiruzen Sarutobi's face, but out of consideration for their years of friendship, he did not lash out.

"Of course I know."

As the Hokage, how could he not know about the almost complete transformation of the Uchiha clan? Shouldn't all of this be a positive sign?

Danzo, however, said with a gloomy tone, "Given the Uchiha's usual style, why would they do such a thing for no reason? There must be some unspeakable secret they are hiding."

"Hiruzen, we must take action!" Danzo seemed impatient.

He unexpectedly discovered that the combined power of the Senju and Uchiha clans could open the Gate of All Things—the legendary Rinnegan!

He missed out on the Rinnegan in the Land of Rain, but he witnessed Nagato's awe-inspiring display of its power, proving that even the renowned demigod Hanzo of the Salamander was no match for him.

This made him even more covetous.

Currently, research on Hashirama cells is progressing through his secret collaboration with Orochimaru, but there is a lack of a large number of Sharingan eyes for testing.

During peacetime, no Uchiha members sacrificed their lives, so the Sharingan was naturally unavailable. However, it seemed that cracks had appeared within the Uchiha clan, which made Danzo feel that his plan was about to come to fruition.

However, the Uchiha clan's sudden change gradually improved their reputation in the village, and the internal turmoil subsided, which greatly surprised Danzo.

What exactly caused such a dramatic change in the Uchiha clan? Was it due to guidance from a master, or is there another secret at play?

Regardless of how the Uchiha's transformation becomes, it won't change his plans, no matter how good they become.

But Hiruzen Sarutobi was not easily fooled. He stared at Danzo: "Danzo, what exactly do you intend to do? Konoha cannot afford any more conflict right now."

"You had a problem with the Uchiha clan's instability; now that they're doing well, you still have a problem. Konoha can't afford any more turmoil."

Danzo narrowed his single exposed eye: "I know your concerns, but I have already hired an organization called 'Akatsuki,' whose members are all top rogue ninja from various countries. They can be driven to work for us with just a small amount of money."

"They will protect us from outside prying eyes, allowing us to focus on dealing with the Uchiha problem."

Ironically, the Akatsuki lost Yahiko precisely because of Danzo's intervention, and now, under Danzo's employment, they are indirectly helping him.

Fortunately, Danzo did not show up, and the Akatsuki organization was unaware that their employer was from Konoha. Otherwise, Nagato might have directly ordered Pain to attack their doorstep.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sat quietly, without saying a word.

"Hiruzen, don't forget the Nine-Tails' attack six years ago. That was all orchestrated by the Uchiha clan. Haven't you seen through their intentions yet?"

Danzo Shimura added fuel to the fire, strongly urging Hiruzen Sarutobi to comply. After all, without the support of the Hokage, dealing with the Uchiha clan would be no easy task.

Hiruzen Sarutobi remained silent, holding the old pipe in one hand, taking a leisurely puff, but a hint of hesitation crept onto his brow.

Upon seeing this, Danzo's lips curled into a meaningful smile.

Is your heart moving?

Just then, Hiruzen's gaze inadvertently swept over a photograph on the table—a picture of him with the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze.

In the photo, Minato is taking the Hokage hat from his hands, preparing to inherit the leadership of Konoha.

only……

The Nine-Tails' rampage six years ago took Minato's life forever.

Minato Namikaze had a close relationship with the Uchiha clan during his lifetime, and the clan head was his best friend.

With these thoughts in mind, Hiruzen Sarutobi gently covered the photo, shook his head, and had an idea in mind.

"Let's wait and see. Don't act rashly against the Uchiha unless absolutely necessary."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's words abruptly stopped Danzo Shimura's smile, freezing it on his face in a rather abrupt way.

"Hiruzen, what do you mean by that?!" Danzo asked incredulously.

"Let's hold off for now and observe whether the Uchiha have shown any remorse. If they still harbor ill intentions, it won't be too late to take action then."

Looking at Hiruzen Sarutobi's calm yet resolute expression, Danzo knew that nothing could persuade his old friend.

"You'll regret this, Hiruzen!"

Danzo finished speaking through gritted teeth, then abruptly turned and left, leaving behind a cold remark:

"I will handle it in my own way."

Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi's anger flared up, and he slammed his hand on the table.

boom!

"Danzo, don't forget, I am the Hokage!"

Danzo's repeated disregard for his authority pushed his patience to its limit.

Danzo did not respond, but glared at him fiercely before leaving in a fit of rage.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed, sat back down, and turned his gaze back to the covered photograph.

"well……"

"Minato, this is the last time I'll help the Uchiha..."

"Never mind that for now, let's go see Naruto."

Hiruzen Sarutobi had lost all interest in official business; Danzo's visit had completely ruined his mood. He changed into civilian clothes and quietly went to search for Naruto's whereabouts.

Chat group

Itachi Uchiha: "That's roughly it. I plan to gradually improve the reputation of our Uchiha clan."

"There's no need to completely change the entire village's opinion of us; as long as they stop being hostile towards us, that's enough. That way, my next plan can proceed smoothly."

He shared his plan in the group, which seemed to be a combination of Shinomiya Yuzuki's previous suggestion, with some improvements, resulting in a perfect plan that could greatly reduce Konoha's casualties.

Shinomiya Yuuki: "That's a great idea. As expected of someone who fights with wisdom, you came up with a solution so quickly. If Obito were to do this, he'd probably be completely stumped for a while."

Obito Uchiha: "Huh? Why am I being dragged into this? Besides, I'm pretty smart, you know."

"By the way, why haven't those two smurfs logged on? What do you think they're busy with?"

Shinomiya Yuzuki: "They're probably busy fighting right now. After all, the flow of time is different, so it might not be over yet on their end."

Obito Uchiha: "I thought they believed they were under a genjutsu and were trying to break free."

Shinomiya Yuuki: "I don't think I'm that stupid."

White Mask: "What kind of illusion is this? Kabuto, when did you tamper with me?"

Shinomiya Yuzuki: "6".

Obito Uchiha: "Yuzuki, you got slapped in the face, didn't you? Look, Genjutsu-kun is here."
