The Fifth Leaf Village

"Yes." Kakashi walked out from the shadows in the office, received the order, and disappeared into the darkness.

……

Chapter 18 Creating Evidence

When Uchiha Dohuan received the message from Kakashi, he was in the Security Department with Fugaku classifying the family's ninjutsu so that they could be distributed to the civilian ninjas who came to work in the Security Department.

The two picked out 3 C-level ninjutsu of each chakra attribute from the family heirlooms and the spoils of successive Uchiha clans. Needless to say, the fire-style ninjutsu included the famous Great Fireball and Phoenix Fire Jutsu. As for the quality of the other 4 attributes of ninjutsu, although it may be slightly worse than those of the ninja clans that specialize in this, it is definitely better than the common stuff that the Genin can access. After all, not every ninjutsu can be collected by the Uchiha clan.

"Is C-level ninjutsu being issued directly after working for a month? Isn't that a bit too much?" Uchiha Fugaku was still a little hesitant about this.

You know, outside, if an ordinary Genin wants to learn a C-level ninjutsu, if the ninja he leads is of mediocre strength, he may have to complete a whole year of missions to get such an opportunity. This is why there is such a big gap between the ninjas of the ninja clan and the civilian ninjas.

"Give it away then," Uchiha Douhuan said nonchalantly, "No matter how many people learn it, the number of ninjutsu won't decrease. As for the issue of resource control that other ninja clans need to worry about, our Uchiha clan doesn't need to worry about it. After all, the foundation of our clan is still the Sharingan."

"Master, Kakashi Hatake is here to visit." At this time, the door of the security captain's office was knocked. After Uchiha Dohuan opened the door, an Uchiha Chunin reported that the visitor was two years younger than Uchiha Dohuan and had just graduated from the ninja school last year. However, from his expression, he did not seem very happy about the arrival of Kakashi Hatake.

"Kentaro, guests are welcome. Don't neglect them." Uchiha Douhuan called out the man's name and reminded him lightly.

"But..." Uchiha Kentaro seemed to want to say something, but Uchiha Douhuan had already pressed his shoulder, and the two talked as they walked.

"I know what you want to say. Although Kakashi is holding the eye of our clan, his eye is a gift from our clan's hero Uchiha Obito before his death. That eye is the continuation of Obito's will. Uchiha respects the hero's decision, and he has not disgraced the name of Sharingan." Uchiha Douhuan said.

The captain's office of the security department was not far from the reception room, and Uchiha Dohuan did not control his volume. At this moment, Kakashi, who was in the reception room, could clearly hear every word Uchiha Dohuan said.

Kakashi was slightly moved. You know, ever since he got this eye, the Uchiha clan has always disliked him, but now, the new clan leader was unexpectedly very friendly to him.

Uchiha Douhuan pushed open the door of the reception room and walked in.

"I wonder what brings you to the Security Department, Senior Kakashi?"

"By order of the Hokage, please have Clan Leader Uchiha Touhan come to the Hokage Building tomorrow to report on the progress of the investigation into the Shimura Danzo case," Kakashi said.

"I understand." Uchiha Douhuan nodded, "I will go tomorrow."

Seeing this, Kakashi was about to leave, but Uchiha Douhuan stopped him.

"Kakashi-senpai, please stay."

"Is there something wrong?" Kakashi turned around and looked at Uchiha Dohuan in confusion.

"Since you're here, let's take that Wood Release ninja away. His problems have been investigated clearly. He didn't participate in most of the things Danzo did due to his age. The only case that is doubtful, I think Kakashi-senpai should know what it is. His crime can only be determined by Lord Hokage." Uchiha Douhuan said with a smile.

Kakashi then remembered the Wood Release ninja he had fought against when he was protecting the Third Hokage, so he nodded.

Uchiha Dohuan brought Kakashi to the interrogation room. The screams of Shimura Hiroshi and others coming from inside made Kakashi frown slightly.

"After all, the Security Department's interrogation methods are not as professional as your Anbu's, so we can only use some special methods." Uchiha Douhuan said calmly, "There is someone in there who is closely related to the White Fang incident. Do you want to go and take a look?"

Kakashi's expression changed slightly, but he still rejected Uchiha Douhuan's proposal, "Forget it, it won't have a good impact if I go."

In response, Uchiha Dohuan did not say much, but took Kakashi to the door of the cell where Yamato was imprisoned, and then took out a scroll.

"This guy is the product of an evil experiment by Danzo and the traitorous ninja Orochimaru. I will report the details to the Sandaime-sama tomorrow. This is the key to the sealing technique on him."

After Uchiha Douhuan handed the scroll to Kakashi, he signaled him that he could go in and take his people away.

Soon, Kakashi took Yamato back to report, and after Kakashi left, Uchiha Dohuan turned around and entered the cell where Yamanaka Feng was imprisoned.

Compared to Yamato, Yamanaka Feng was not treated so well. Not only had he not eaten or drunk anything since he was captured, but within just two days, all the famous Chunin in the Uchiha clan had beaten him up. He had also been tortured with the Sharingan's illusion three times. At this time, Yamanaka Feng was fixed on a cross and didn't even have the strength to raise his head.

After Uchiha Dohuan entered the cell, he pulled over a table and started writing down Danzo's evidence.

From colluding with Orochimaru to kill the orphans in the village, to deliberately killing fellow ninjas on the battlefield to obtain their bloodline, and finally, spreading rumors about White Fang in the village, causing the hero of Konoha to commit suicide out of frustration, and finally silencing the relevant people one by one.

This is the biggest advantage of being a time traveler. Uchiha Douhuan knows all the bad things that Shimura Danzo has done by heart without even having to interrogate him, and even the direction of creating evidence is ready.

After finishing Danzo's criminal record, Uchiha Douhuan walked straight forward, cut Yamanaka Feng's fingers, and put a handprint on it.

Shan Zhongfeng raised his head with difficulty and looked at everything Uchiha Douhuan had done with hatred.

At this moment, the Mangekyō Sharingan in Uchiha Douhuan's eyes quietly opened, and the power of the pupils mixed with chakra directly invaded Shan Zhongfeng's brain.

Uchiha Douhuan's illusion skills are actually a bit rough compared to other members of the clan, probably just an entry-level level. Any Chunin picked out from the clan has better attainments in illusion than him. However, at this moment, Uchiha Douhuan did not want to use illusion to make Yamanaka Feng say something. All he wanted to do was to destroy the other party's spirit.

"Abba...Abba..."

In a short while, Shan Zhongfeng's consciousness on the cross became shattered under the combined effect of the Kaleidoscope's pupil power and chakra, and Shan Zhongfeng became a useless man who could only drool and grumble.

Chapter 19 Report

In the Hokage's office, Kakashi reported truthfully what he had seen and heard in the Security Department, but after thinking about it, Kakashi concealed the part about the White Fang.

After listening to Kakashi's report, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Yamato beside him and sighed.

"What's your name, kid?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

Jia remained silent, but Sarutobi Hiruzen did not take it as an offense. He came to him and helped him untie the restraints with his own hands.

"Don't you have a name? Then from now on, you will be called Tenzo." Sarutobi Hiruzen said, "The past is the past, Danzo is dead, and from now on you will live a good life as a ninja of Konoha."

Jia was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the target of the mission that Danzo asked him to assassinate a few years ago.

"Since you possess the Wood Release of the Shodaime-sama, then you should also inherit his will to protect the village."

Jia, or Tenzo, had his lips trembling slightly, wanting to say something, but in the end he didn't speak. He just glanced at the Sandaime and then turned to look at Kakashi.

"Kakashi, please take care of this child from now on." Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

"Understood." Kakashi nodded and left the Hokage's office with Tenzo.

After Kakashi left, Sarutobi Hiruzen returned to his seat and lit a cigarette.

He was a little confused by Uchiha Touhan's unexpected action of sending the Wood Release ninja back. After all, this was Wood Release. If the Uchiha clan really wanted to rebel, how could they give up such power?

Could it be that Uchiha Douhuan is really the Uchiha who is loyal to the village?

Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but ask himself.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was destined to spend this night in confusion.

The next morning, Uchiha Douhuan took Yamanaka Feng, who had become a fool, to the Hokage's office.

When Uchiha Dohuan arrived, the Hokage's office was already full of people. In addition to the two advisors, Nara Shikaku, the Hokage's assistant who was officially promoted two days ago due to Danzo's death, was also standing beside Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Seeing this, Uchiha Douhuan smiled slightly. Under the intimidation of Kotoamatsukami, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not dare to meet him one-on-one. However, such a large formation was exactly what Uchiha Douhuan wanted.

"Hokage, I am the deputy captain of the security team, Uchiha Douhuan, and I am here to report." Uchiha Douhuan bowed.

"Dou Huan, you're here." Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and smiled kindly.

"Uchiha Dohuan, you use the name of investigating the case to eliminate dissidents and slander innocent people in the village. How do you explain this?" Before Sarutobi Hiruzen could say anything, Mito Menen on the side couldn't wait to criticize him.

Uchiha Douhuan glanced at the other party with disdain. These two old guys in high positions only had the advantage of seniority. Uchiha Douhuan had never taken them seriously.

"Does Lord Hokage think so too?" Uchiha Dohuan looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and asked.

"Dou Huan, Uchiha's methods are a bit extreme." Sarutobi Hiruzen did not admit it explicitly, but still intended to give Uchiha Dou Huan a warning.

"Faced with the cancer of the village like Shimura Danzo and his gang! Can we use any other soft tactics? We must strike hard!" Uchiha Douhuan said sternly, "In the past few days, just some of the things we have investigated so far are shocking!"

As he spoke, Uchiha Douhuan took out the criminal record of Shimura Danzo that he had written overnight and placed it on Sarutobi Hiruzen's desk.

"Danzo Shimura, for the sake of our clan's bloodline, deliberately killed 14 Uchiha clan members on the battlefield of the Third Shinobi World War! That's not all. After the Hokage banned human experiments, Danzo Shimura colluded with the traitor Orochimaru and kidnapped orphans from the village for experiments. The youngest child was only two years old!"

"Are you two still going to shield this inhumane demon and his accomplices?" Uchiha Douhuan looked at Mitomon En and Utane Koharu. "Are you truly worthy of the Will of Fire and the original intention of the First Daemon to establish the village to protect the children from the flames of war?"

"You..." Utane Koharu was furious, but the hat that Uchiha Dohan put on him was too big, so big that even he couldn't bear it.

"Douhuan, calm down. They don't know what Danzo has done." Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and spoke to excuse his two old friends. Then he picked up Danzo's criminal record on the table.

Looking at the record of everything Danzo had done, even though Sarutobi Hiruzen knew a little bit of the inside story, he couldn't help but be stunned. Danzo's courage far exceeded his imagination.

"These criminal facts were confessed by Yamanaka Feng, a core member of Shimura Danzo's criminal gang." Uchiha Douhuan pulled out Yamanaka Feng, who had a dull look in his eyes, and threw him in front of him.

Hearing this name, Nara Shikaku, who had been silent before, couldn't help but look at Uchiha Dohuan, but he happened to meet Uchiha Dohuan's eyes.

Uchiha Douhuan looked at Nara Shikaku with a faint smile on his face and said, "Although something went wrong during the interrogation, and this person tried to use the Yamanaka clan's secret technique to counter the Sharingan's illusion interrogation, causing severe damage to his brain, he confessed to everything he had done before that."

“Abba…Abba Abba!”

Nara Shikaku looked at Yamazaki Feng who was lying there drooling, and sighed deeply. With his intelligence, he naturally understood that this was the joint counterattack and warning from the Uchiha clan, the Ino, Deer, and Chou clans. After sighing deeply in his heart, he lowered his head decisively. He knew very well that what was happening now was no longer something he could get involved in. In the game between the top leaders and the Uchiha clan, the Ino, Deer, and Chou clans would be doomed if they were not careful.

"Hokage, in order to prevent this situation from happening again, please assign a few Anbu interrogators to assist. After all, the Security Department does lack professional interrogation methods to deal with ninjas." Uchiha Douhuan said at this time.

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought about it and nodded, "I will send someone to the Security Department to assist."

"Thank you, Hokage." Uchiha Douhuan's eyes flashed, and then he said.

Sarutobi Hiruzen may have agreed to this request with the purpose of sending people to monitor the Uchiha clan, but Uchiha Dohuan didn't care. After all, whether he could keep them or not depended on Uchiha Dohuan's own actions.

Sarutobi Hiruzen also saw the last part of the criminal record at this time, the part about the White Fang incident.

"Doohwan, this..."

Chapter 20 Overturning the verdict

"The Security Department discovered this matter during the investigation of Shimura Danzo's accomplices. The rumors about White Fang Senior in the village were spread under the instructions of Shimura Danzo. In addition, people including the current head of the Shimura clan, Shimura Hiroshi, were involved in this matter. Moreover, they were the ones who silenced White Fang Senior's teammates." Uchiha Dohuan said slowly, while paying attention to the reactions of Sarutobi Hiruzen and the two advisors.

When the two consultants heard Uchiha Dohuan mention this, there was inexplicable panic in their eyes. Although Sarutobi Hiruzen's performance was not as bad as these two, it was also a little unnatural.

Seeing this, Uchiha Douhuan understood that these people were probably not clean when it came to the matter of White Fang.

"Let's leave this matter at that. The matter of White Fang has long been a consensus in the village." Utane Koharu said immediately.

"Really? Are we just going to allow villains to slander the heroes who shed blood for the village, letting the heroes of the village suffer injustice forever? Can't they even rest in peace after death?" Uchiha Douhuan looked directly at the other party and said in a low voice.

"The failure of that mission was indeed White Fang's responsibility." Mizutomon En said.

"But he was trying to protect his companions, wasn't he?" Uchiha Douhuan said slowly.

"A ninja's duty is to complete the mission!" said Utane Koharu.

"Does Sandaime-sama think so too?" Uchiha Dohuan looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen, "This is not the Will of Fire at all."

As Uchiha Dohuan finished speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen's office suddenly fell into an eerie silence. Nara Shikaku even wished that he could turn into the shadow of his family's secret technique and disappear quickly.

Uchiha Douhuan looked at this scene and laughed in his heart.

To put it bluntly, the profession of ninja is a killing machine that pays for disaster relief. No matter how beautiful the words "will of fire" are, can they cover up the filthiness of the profession of ninja itself?

But at this moment, the Will of Fire is really useful.

Could Sarutobi Hiruzen deny this statement? Of course not.

The Will of Fire, as Sarutobi Hiruzen's political base and the political correctness of Konoha Village, has been deeply bound to him through his day-to-day propaganda. It can be said that in Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes, even if you question that Asuma is not his biological son, you cannot question the correctness of the Will of Fire.

"Dou Huan, I understand what you mean." Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and said, "We will restore White Fang's reputation, but let's stop the investigation into this matter. After all, it happened too long ago, and it would be a waste of time to investigate thoroughly."

"Since this is the decision of Lord Hokage, the Security Department has no choice but to obey." Uchiha Douhuan said with a dark expression.

At this moment, Uchiha Douhuan was almost overjoyed. The moment he confirmed that these three old guys were not clean in the White Fang incident, Uchiha Douhuan's goal today was just to help White Fang restore its reputation. If he really kept investigating, it would be difficult to deal with if he really found something. The current Uchiha was not ready to completely break up with the three of them, so Uchiha Douhuan was already thinking about how to delay it, but he didn't expect that Sarutobi Hiruzen would stop the matter himself and take the blame.

"Also, according to the clues the Security Department has currently obtained, Shimura Danzo has a deep connection with the traitorous ninja Orochimaru," Uchiha Douhuan controlled his expression. "But the matter of the traitorous ninja Orochimaru does involve forces outside the village. Therefore, I ask for the Hokage's approval that the Security Department and the Anbu work together to apprehend the traitorous ninja Orochimaru, who endangered Konoha's safety. This will also provide an explanation for the souls who died tragically in their inhumane human experiments."

"Orochimaru?" Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes darkened when he heard the name.

【What happened back then should definitely have a conclusion.】

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed inwardly, and after making up his mind, he looked at Uchiha Dohuan: "I understand, Dohuan, then, Kakashi will lead this mission, and your security department will assist from the side, how about that?"

"Understood." Uchiha Douhuan nodded and accepted the order.

"This time, you must bring Orochimaru to justice. Please."

"Loyalty! Sincerity!" Uchiha Douhuan looked solemn and raised his right hand to salute.

When Uchiha Douhuan left, he did not take with him Yamanaka Kaze, who had been drooling in the Hokage's office. After Uchiha Douhuan left, the two advisors looked at Nara Shikaku, who had been acting as a transparent person. Nara Shikaku understood and said:

"Hokage-sama, I heard from Haiyi that Feng was forcibly taken away by Danzo when he was young. Although he committed unforgivable crimes with Danzo and his current situation is his own fault, please spare his life for the sake of the Yamanaka clan's past achievements."

"Shikaku, don't say that. This is all Danzo's fault." Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, "Take this child back to the Yamanaka clan and take good care of him."

"I understand." Nara Shikaku nodded, then left the Hokage's office with Yamanaka Feng.

After Nara Shikaku left, Mitomon En immediately spoke up impatiently: "Huruzen, are we just going to let this matter go? Are you going to watch the Uchiha clan continue to mess around?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen lit his pipe, took a deep breath, then looked up at his two old partners and said, "Dou Huan, he wouldn't do that. He's a good boy with the will of fire in his heart."

"Huruzen!" Utane Koharu said anxiously, "He is from the Uchiha clan. Don't forget the teachings of the Nidaime!"

"Huruzen, Danzo is right, you are really too indecisive." Mitomon En also said, "If you continue to let Uchiha go, you will regret it one day!"
