Konoha: This Uchiha is going a bit too far.

Chapter 66 Why did you provoke her?

"Then we'll take our leave. Goodbye."

Under the hazy moonlight, after leaving the barbecue restaurant and saying goodbye to everyone, Haori and Hikaru headed towards the Uchiha clan.

The gathering went quite smoothly and successfully, especially for Yuzhi.

He unexpectedly obtained information about Orochimaru and Danzo from Asuma.

This finally gave Yuzhi, who had been waiting quietly, an opportunity to make her move!

"After all, Uchiha Setsuna and Uchiha Fugaku haven't had a very pleasant time together lately."

After everyone returned to Konoha, Uchiha Setsuna, as the eldest elder, decisively convened a clan meeting.

This time, before even having a chance to visit him again, Fugaku Uchiha was put in a very passive position at the clan meeting.

Fortunately, he was still the clan leader, and with the support of many doves, he was able to forcefully interrupt this clan meeting.

As for when the next round of negotiations will begin and how they will proceed, that's not something Yuzuri should worry about.

Because, who knows, next time they might all be filled with anxiety!

Are you thinking about something unpleasant?

Just then, Hikaru gave Haori a strange look.

"Um?"

Yuzhi snapped out of her daze and asked in surprise.

Why do you say that?

"I don't know, but I have a feeling that what you're thinking at this time is unlikely to be anything good."

Guang shook her head and truthfully expressed her thoughts.

"It seems you have a deep misunderstanding about me, even though we're supposed to be friends."

Yu Zhi sighed helplessly. His public persona had always been that he was a very capable fighter, and it had never been compromised.

Didn't you see that he has both true brothers and superficial brothers everywhere? How come he's become like this here with Guang?

"It's because we're friends that I truly understand you."

He glanced at the haori and thought to himself, "Half a friend."

"Okay, you really know me well."

After thinking for a moment, Yuzhi decided not to hide it anymore and whispered in Hikaru's ear.

"Although not all, I may have to take action against the family."

After waiting for so long, they finally heard Orochimaru's movements, and Hagoromo naturally didn't want to miss it!

Yuzhi always knew that if he wanted to do something he didn't want people to notice, then he had to take many things into consideration.

For example, if a prominent figure in the Uchiha clan dies, then there needs to be internal conflict to blame.

Ideally, there should also be corresponding activity on the outside to cover up everyone's attention.

At the same time, he also hoped that those who were already paying attention to the Uchiha clan would no longer focus too much on these matters.

The Third Hokage's abdication and the selection of the Fourth Hokage is a big deal, but that's not enough; we need some even more explosive news.

Danzo holds the Root, and his gaze might turn towards us after the war ends, which is not what Hagoromo wanted.

So Danzo had wicked intentions. With the Orochimaru incident coming to light, he wanted to avoid the limelight and at the same time, to demonstrate his abilities by rallying allies to leave Konoha.

This is the best time for Yuzhi to make her move!

Yuri had always suspected that the story of Orochimaru's human experiments was likely spread by Danzo.

The Third Hokage couldn't possibly spread these things, because Orochimaru was his disciple and a candidate for Hokage.

He's already trying to cover it up, how could he let this kind of news spread unchecked?

Danzo is different. He still possesses the complete Root organization and has not yet experienced the assassination attempt on the Third Hokage, yet he has been outmaneuvered and given leverage.

At this point, he would probably act even more recklessly; for the sake of becoming Hokage, he would probably do anything!

"Looking at it this way, I should thank Danzo."

With the news of Orochimaru's human experiments spreading, if something were to actually happen within the Uchiha clan, probably not many people would pay much attention.

Moreover, even if we take a step back and assume that Yuzhi's actions do not escalate the conflict, but instead make everyone want to thoroughly investigate the murderer,...

So, isn't Orochimaru just a natural scapegoat?

"Are they finally going to make their move?"

Hikaru's eyes flashed with a fierce light when she heard what Haori said, but she quickly shook her head.

"Unfortunately, not all of them."

"It's not the right time yet. You have to take things one step at a time, and do things one step at a time, so that you won't run into problems."

Yuzhi smiled, then gave a reminder.

"Also, don't forget about trying to integrate into the family in order to avoid exposing us."

"I haven't forgotten, I understand."

Just one glance at Yuzhi was enough for her to know that she hadn't done a good job. After all, what was the point of integrating into a family that was destined to be reduced to ashes?

However, since Yuzhi had brought it up again and again, she felt she should just do it herself, so that this guy wouldn't keep bringing it up all the time.

The two chatted as they walked, but when they arrived at a forest outside the Uchiha clan's territory, they suddenly stopped.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh

In an instant, countless kunai shot towards them at high speed!

Upon seeing this, the two immediately leaped up to avoid the kunai, and at that moment, four ninjas dressed in black surrounded them.

"Who are you people?"

Yuzhi looked completely bewildered, as he couldn't immediately figure out who would attack him.

Could it be Danzo?

Wait a minute, didn't this guy already leave? Could it be that the person who left wasn't Danzo?

Moreover, even if Danzo is crazy, with the entire Hidden Leaf Village praising him now, he shouldn't be stupid enough to launch a reckless attack.

Especially given how close this place is to the Uchiha clan, once reinforcements arrive, things could get complicated for them.

"Let's do it!"

Uchiha Hachiro and the others clearly had no intention of wasting words with Hagoromo; they had been waiting here for a long time, all for this moment of action.

Therefore, tonight, Uchiha Hachiro also transferred the patrolmen in the vicinity to give Haori a good "test"!

Of course, he was also very sensible.

Since Elder Shaka values ​​this brat, he naturally wouldn't kill him.

At most, it's just to teach this brat a lesson and make him know to respect the elders; he could have gone all out.

Uchiha Hachimoku appeared in front of Haori in a flash, holding a long sword and coldly staring at her.

The other three then launched a direct attack on the light, a sight that made Yuzhi's eyes twitch.

"Are you sure what you're doing?"

Yuzhi frowned, his eyes instantly turning crimson, and then he asked with a slightly amused expression.

"We know exactly what we're doing, the question now is, do you know how to do it?"

Uchiha Hachimoku spoke in a low, hoarse voice, and interestingly, his tone was also full of amusement.

No, you've got one thing wrong.

Yu Zhi sighed softly. He casually drew out a kunai, its crimson three-tomoe finial staring at the guy in front of him.

"Have you figured out how to save your men?"

Save his own subordinate?

Uchiha Hachimoku was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then a cold smile appeared on his face behind his mask.

He even wondered if Yuzhi had gone mad, otherwise why would she ask such a stupid question?

"what!"

However, the next moment, a scream broke the silence of the night, and the sound instantly made Uchiha Hachimoku's expression change slightly.

This isn't Uchiha Haruka's voice; it's the voice of one of his subordinates!

"Tell me, why did you provoke her?"

Almost simultaneously, Yuzhi's voice suddenly rang in his ears, and he immediately turned around.

He saw that Yuzhi had already arrived beside him like a ghost, holding a kunai.

The kunai, gleaming with a cold light, pierced through the sky and hurtled straight toward him!

PS: We've started slowly making moves against the clans.

As a newbie, I'm begging you to follow along! Following along now will determine everything about a book; neglecting a book too long can easily kill it.

Thank you all, Onz
