With the Third Hokage's death, various border factions are stirring, many ninjas are not in the village, and the selection of ANBU is not a simple matter.
Tsunade said, "Let's talk about it after this period of time. I will consider your suggestion, and I will carefully investigate the true situation of the Anbu."
Having lived through two Shinobi World Wars, how could Tsunade not imagine the darkness of the Anbu and what they had done over the years?
If the Anbu is thoroughly investigated, everything the Third Hokage has done over the years will be exposed, which is something Tsunade doesn't want to see.
After all, the third generation was his teacher, and he was already dead; there was no need to tarnish the reputation of a deceased person.
Light footsteps sounded, and two figures appeared outside the office.
Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu walked in with serious expressions. They first glanced at Uchiha Sora, then at the four ANBU members with bruised and swollen faces.
"I asked you to investigate Uchiha Sora's collusion with Orochimaru, how did it turn into such a big commotion?"
Mitokado Homura, who had initially thought it would be a simple matter, has unexpectedly caused quite a stir. He has learned the whole story from the returning ANBU members.
"Lord Yan, it was Uchiha Sora who twisted the truth, framed someone, and concealed his true strength."
Mitokado Homura stared directly at Uchiha Sora and said, "Uchiha Sora, what else do you have to say?"
Kong laughed loudly, "Lady Tsunade, did you see that? This is a self-admission. You still have the nerve to ask me who gave you the right to mobilize the Anbu without the Hokage's permission."
Mitokado Homura's face turned ashen: "Uchiha Sora, you're just a Chunin. Who gave you the right to speak to the village's higher-ups in such a questioning tone?"
"And who gave you the audacity to spout nonsense here?"

Chapter 135 I am the Uchiha Clan Chief
Mitokado Homura was furious. He felt his authority had been challenged. He was an advisor to Konoha Village, and for many years no one had dared to speak to him like that.
Not to mention he's just a teenager, yet he's already learned to frame others and get involved in high-level power struggles.
Mitokado Homura glared at Uchiha Sora; if looks could kill, he would have eaten Uchiha Sora alive.
Uchiha Sora looked somber, his face filled with grief and indignation, as if he had witnessed the most ridiculous thing in the world, or as if he had suffered endless humiliation.
He then burst into loud laughter, a mocking laugh filled with disdain for Mitokado Homura.
"Advisor Mitokado Homura, you dare ask me who I am? You have the nerve to ask me who I am? Tell me, who am I?"
Mitokado Yan's face immediately darkened, and his breathing became more rapid.
Sora believed that if they weren't in the Hokage's office, Mitokado Homura would have immediately beaten him up.
Tsunade almost couldn't hold back and turned away to avoid laughing.
Jiraiya walked straight out, and the atmosphere of the originally serious scene became somewhat strange.
"Don't play word games with me, Uchiha Sora, as an advisor to Konoha."
I have the right to investigate and interrogate you if I suspect you might pose a threat to Konoha. Don't forget, you're just a Chunin.
Mitokado Homura didn't think that Uchiha Ku could pose any threat to him, and said that her mobilization of the Anbu by bypassing the Hokage was just an expedient measure in an emergency.
Uchiha Sora rolled his eyes and said, "Hokage-sama, I am now filing a complaint against the advisor Mitokado Homura for colluding with the Anbu to frame the village's ninja clan leader in my capacity as the head of the Uchiha clan."
Although I am only twelve years old and have only recently been promoted to Chunin, I am now the clan leader elected by all the Uchiha clan members of Konoha.
The Uchiha were the founders of Konoha, not some small clan like the Mitomon who joined later.
In terms of contributions, the Uchiha clan far surpasses you as an advisor.
[What Uchiha Sora said is correct. He was indeed elected as the clan leader by all the Uchiha clan members in Konoha, because he is currently the only Uchiha clan member in the entire village.]
Mitokado Homura remained relatively calm, clearly not taking Uchiha Sora's words to heart.
"Hmph, that's just sophistry. What kind of Uchiha clan leader is an Uchiha orphan? Which of us advisors hasn't risked our lives and offered advice for Konoha? It's none of your business to interfere."
Kong snorted and said, "Whether it counts or not is not up to you, an advisor. During the Warring States period, there were hundreds of clans, and the Senju and Uchiha joined forces to create Konoha."
The Uchiha clan's contribution to transforming the entire ninja world into a single country and village cannot be denied, as it has achieved its current status.
Now that the Uchiha clan is dying out, how dare you say that the Uchiha cannot be considered a clan? Hokage, I demand a ninja clan conference.
"Let all the clans, big and small, in Konoha participate in the discussion. Should a clan be abolished if it declines due to its efforts to maintain the village's peace?"
Uchiha Sora's words left everyone speechless. Although the Second and Third Hokage suppressed the Uchiha, no one dared to oppose the Uchiha's contributions to Konoha.
Koharu Utatane squinted and said, "We're discussing your collusion with Orochimaru, not whether the Uchiha clan should exist."
[Koharu Utatane's idea is excellent. As long as it's confirmed that Uchiha Sora and Orochimaru are colluding, the Uchiha clan will become history.]
Kongdao: "It should be investigated. The fact that the advisor colluded with the Anbu to undermine the Hokage should also be investigated, as well as the mystery of the Third Hokage's death."
The advisory group has taken a hard line against the Uchiha clan, and now I have reason to suspect that the advisory group colluded with Itachi Uchiha to massacre members of the Uchiha clan. I might as well investigate them together.
I wonder what the Hokage thinks; ultimately, these are matters that require the Hokage's decision.
Tsunade pondered for a moment and said, "The matter of Uchiha Sora colluding with Orochimaru is temporarily dismissed. Without solid evidence, we cannot arrest people arbitrarily."
These four individuals acted without the Hokage's permission and will henceforth leave the Anbu and join the regular ninja forces.
As the only surviving member of the Uchiha clan remaining in Konoha, Sora is qualified to be the head of the Uchiha clan. This is an internal matter for the Uchiha, and Konoha will not interfere.
However, the matter of the Uchiha clan's territory needs to be discussed at a high-level village meeting. After all, the Uchiha clan's territory has been sealed off for many years, and I'm not clear about any specific plans for it yet.
Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu were furious. They had gone to great lengths to bring Tsunade back to succeed as Hokage, only to be betrayed as soon as she returned.
[The Uchiha was just a teenager, and no one cared whether he was the Uchiha clan leader or not. Even if he became the clan leader, he would only be a figurehead. However, the two of them saw Tsunade's attitude in this, an attitude that was completely different from that of the Third Hokage.]
"Tsunade, you'd better watch yourself."
The two turned and left.
"Thank you so much for your help, Tsunade-senpai. The entire Uchiha clan is deeply grateful."
[Uchiha Sora is shameless. He's the only one in the entire clan who can talk big without understanding the situation.]
Tsunade nodded and said, "You can go back now. I will hold a Konoha clan meeting in a week to discuss your matter."
You can share your thoughts now.
The Uchiha lands may seem remote now, but in just a few years, Konoha will be the most prosperous place in the Naruto world.
Sasuke, that idiot, not only didn't get his clan land back, but Sakura still has to pay his mortgage every month. This kind of shameful guy doesn't deserve to call himself a member of the Uchiha clan.
Even if they can't get back all the clan land, just taking any piece would be enough for their descendants to do whatever they want.
Uchiha Sora was immediately filled with grief: "It all depends on the Hokage's decision. It's pitiful that countless Uchiha clansmen shed blood and sacrificed their lives for Konoha, and in the end, they don't even have a place to put their ashes. Alas."
Tsunade was stunned; the rapid change in Uchiha Sora's emotions left her somewhat bewildered.
Anyway, Uchiha Sora didn't say whether he wanted to return to the clan's territory; when asked, he just recounted the tragic fate of the Uchiha clan.
Tsunade was helpless; this was a subtle attack, and what Uchiha Sora said was indeed true.
Whatever conflicts existed between the Uchiha clan and the Konoha leadership in the past, with the death of the Third Hokage, Danzo's imprisonment, and the disappearance of the Uchiha clan, all grudges and entanglements seemed to have vanished.
The Uchiha clan that remains in Konoha now is a completely new one, a clan consisting only of Uchiha Sora.
"I will discuss this with the major clans of Konoha. As for the high-level meeting, let's postpone it for now."
"Thank you, Lady Tsunade."
Today's victory can be considered a great triumph. Not only has the honor of the Uchiha clan leader been restored, but there is also a possibility of reclaiming a portion of the clan's territory.
Although his current high-rise apartment is nice, it's still far inferior to the mansions like the Uchiha clan's estate.
Not only do they not have their own private laboratory, but they can only train during the day by going to the training grounds in Konoha.
Chapter 136 Night Escape
"You bastard."
Mitokado Yan smashed the water glass on the table to pieces.
Koharu just watched quietly; in all these decades, he had rarely seen Mitokado En get angry.
"Yan, are you out of your mind? Is it because Tsunade, being a junior, didn't obey your orders? Or is it because Uchiha Sora is being unreasonable?"
Mitokado Homura was speechless. Tsunade's succession had made him realize that a power transition would eventually occur, but he never expected that when that day actually came, he would be no better than Danzo.
"If Tsunade wants power, let her figure it out herself. When we came to power, we were also harassed by the village elders in the same way."
How can one effectively wield power without experiencing its struggles?
[Don't even talk about Mitokado Haru. He's unwilling to give up the power he holds but insists on finding a high-sounding reason for himself. He's a typical hypocrite who wants to put on a show.]
Mitokado's face turned pale and then red, and Koharu Utatane turned and walked out.
The night was silent, and the bright moon hung high like a silver plate.
A figure carrying a backpack walked slowly down the streets of Konoha, her face showing some worry and dark circles under her eyes. It was Sakura Haruno.
"Sakura." Naruto's voice came from behind.
“I know you want to leave the village to find Sasuke, I’ll go with you.”
[Naruto's intelligence is indeed not high. Doesn't he know that leaving the village without permission is considered desertion and would result in being imprisoned in Konoha's jail?]
"Naruto, you don't need to go on adventures with me. I'm the one who holds Team 7 back. Without me, Team 7 would probably be better off."
"Sakura, you have disappointed me greatly. Didn't you say you wanted to become Tsunade's apprentice? Now you want to betray the village. Do you want to nail your parents to the pillar of shame?"
An empty voice came from behind the two of them.
Naruto and Sakura were shocked and turned to look at Uchiha Sora, who was slowly emerging from the darkness.
"Ku, what are you doing here?" Naruto asked, puzzled.
Sora said with a mysterious expression, "What's so hard to guess about this? Sakura is preoccupied with worries every day, like she's lost her soul."
A twelve-year-old girl obsessed with romance, I wouldn't be surprised if she did something stupid.
I never expected that you, Naruto Uzumaki, would be such a simp, willing to give up your long-held dream of becoming Hokage for Sakura.
Do you know that if you leave this village today, Naruto, you will never be able to become Hokage again in your life? If you believe me, ask Jiraiya.
