Kakashi nodded: "Yes."

He grabbed Rei Amamiya's wrist and dragged her out of the Hokage's office.

"Kakashi-senpai..."

On the streets of Konoha, Rei Amamiya's eyes were filled with worry as he broke free from Kakashi's grasp.

Kakashi looked at Rei Amamiya and said, "You can't stay there. Not only will you not be able to help Shisui, you'll also drag yourself down with you."

"Do not worry!"

"Zhi Shui will be fine."

Kakashi looked at Rei Amamiya's anxious face and spoke with a hint of comfort in his voice.

"There is insufficient evidence in this matter, and Zhishui will not be severely punished."

Kakashi saw it clearly: this matter would ultimately end without any resolution.

The Uchiha clan holds a significant position in Konoha, and the Hokage will not easily harm the Uchiha clan or Uchiha Shisui.

Moreover, there's a strong sense of conspiracy in this matter, and it's impossible for the Hokage not to notice it.

Rei Amamiya knew that Shisui would be alright.

It's clearly impossible for this move to defeat the Uchiha clan and Shisui.

Danzo was a man who was good at using public opinion.

This incident will inevitably push the Uchiha clan and Uchiha Shisui into the spotlight!

This was Danzo's true purpose.

Of course, Danzo also pushed Rei Amamiya's mission a step further.

Chapter 280 is too straightforward?

Just as Rei Amamiya had predicted.

Even before the outcome of the Uchiha Shisui incident was announced, rumors were already flying everywhere in the village.

"Those Uchiha clan members are too arrogant!"

"That's right! They can kill people in the village whenever they want!"

"They have always acted with impunity because of their strength!"

"If you ask me, we still need to curb the Uchiha clan's current arrogance!"

"You dare say that? Aren't you afraid that Uchiha Shisui will come and silence you?"

"What am I afraid of? Konoha has its own rules! No matter how strong the Uchiha clan is, they still have to abide by Konoha's rules, right?"

"You underestimate the Uchiha clan! Haven't you heard that Uchiha Shisui silenced the ANBU ninjas to cover up the Uchiha clan's rebellion?"

"Treason? Impossible! How could the Uchiha clan dare to do that?"

"I also think the Uchiha clan wouldn't dare to rebel, since the Hokage and Amemiya-sama are still alive!"

"No matter how powerful the Sharingan is, it's no match for Wood Release!"

"Who knows? The Uchiha clan has always been very arrogant, and they've probably been dissatisfied with the village's power distribution for a long time."

"They're not really going to fight, are they?"

"What are you worried about? Even if a fight breaks out, it has nothing to do with us!"

"Are you stupid! If a fight breaks out, Konoha will definitely become a battlefield!"

"No way! Haven't you heard about Lord Amamiya's exploits in Kirigakure? The Uchiha clan is definitely no match for Lord Amamiya!"

"But I heard that Lord Amamiya has a very good relationship with the Uchiha clan..."

"No matter how good their relationship is, Lord Amamiya is still a Konoha ninja, so he's definitely on Konoha's side!"

"That's true!"

"Stop making wild guesses, the Uchiha clan and the village will never go to war!"

"Now that we have finally achieved peace, no one will initiate a war."

"That's not necessarily true..."

"..."

A gentle breeze lifted the curtain of the izakaya.

Through the gap, Rei Amamiya's figure was revealed.

"elder sister?"

Naruto looked at Rei Amamiya, who had suddenly stopped in front of the izakaya, and called out in confusion.

Rei Amamiya smiled slightly and led Naruto away from the izakaya entrance.

The Uchiha clan was affected by Shisui Uchiha's actions.

Now, the Uchiha clan members inevitably face strange looks in the village. How could the Uchiha clan members, who are proud by nature, possibly tolerate such slander?

After taking Naruto out for barbecue, Rei Amamiya returned home to find that the Anbu ninjas had been waiting at the door for a long time.

Rei Amamiya released Naruto's hand and gently rubbed the back of Naruto's head: "Naruto, go to sleep first."

Naruto pouted slightly, glanced disapprovingly at the ANBU ninja who had snatched his sister away from him, and obediently went inside.

Rei Amamiya closed the door and walked towards the Hokage's office with the Anbu ninja.

Rei Amamiya leaped across the rooftops and soon arrived at the door of the Hokage's office.

The ANBU ninja stopped at the door and opened the office door for Rei Amamiya.

Rei Amamiya entered the Hokage's office and saw only Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sat in a chair, his face showing signs of exhaustion. In just one day, he seemed to have aged ten years.

"zero……"

Hiruzen Sarutobi pointed to the chair in front of him, "Sit down!"

It looks like Hiruzen Sarutobi wants to have a long talk with him.

Rei Amamiya sat down in the chair in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"You've heard the rumors circulating in the village."

Hiruzen Sarutobi asked with certainty.

Rei Amamiya nodded.

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at him and sighed: "Do you blame those who spread rumors?"

Rei Amamiya: "..."

He looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi in surprise and shook his head honestly: "It has nothing to do with them. Someone deliberately guided them."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded, relieved. "Yes! Someone was deliberately guiding them..."

"It is Elder Danzo."

Anger appeared on Rei Amamiya's face.

Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't expect Rei Amamiya to be so direct, but then he thought about it and realized that Rei Amamiya wasn't a person with ulterior motives.

"It's him."

Hiruzen Sarutobi confirmed Rei Amamiya's guess.

Looking at Rei Amamiya's indignant face, Hiruzen Sarutobi retorted, "Are you wondering why I didn't remove Danzo from his post? Why did I allow him to do so many wrong things?"

Rei Amamiya hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Zero, when you sit in my position one day, you will find that there are some things that only he can handle."

Rei Amamiya's pupils dilated slightly, her eyes filled with surprise.

Hiruzen Sarutobi continued, "The Hokage protects Konoha in the light, but even this vast Konoha cannot avoid having a dark side, and some things must be handled by someone else."

Hiruzen Sarutobi originally intended to have Danzo leave as well after he stepped down.

To make Uchiha Shisui someone to handle some shady things for Amamiya Rei.

After all, Rei Amamiya lived a very upright and honest life.

There are some things that Rei Amamiya can't do, but Shisui can.

It now seems that Danzo has absolutely no tolerance for the Uchiha clan.

Although he suppressed the matter, he couldn't silence the public's opinions.

With Rei Amamiya around, Hiruzen Sarutobi wasn't worried about the Uchiha clan's rebellion, but he hoped that the Uchiha clan and the village would never come to the point of fighting each other.

“Using this incident as an excuse, I have already transferred Shisui away from the root.”

"Sarutobi Hiruzen said."

“However, he is not suitable to appear in the villagers’ sight right now, so I gave him a long-term overseas assignment.”

Hiruzen Sarutobi estimated the time, "It should be about half a year before he returns, by which time the turmoil should have subsided considerably."

Rei Amamiya: "..."

Why didn't you say so sooner!

At least let him have one last bite of food before Shisui leaves!

"Zero, I know you have a close relationship with the Uchiha clan."

"But one should always be wary of others."

"The Uchiha clan is, after all, a powerful ninja clan with the Sharingan."

"If they really do launch a coup, it will be another catastrophe for the village."

Hiruzen Sarutobi spoke in a heavy tone.

Rei Amamiya's eyes were filled with determination. After Hiruzen Sarutobi finished speaking, he immediately promised, "I will protect the village!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled slightly; he certainly didn't doubt Rei Amamiya's concern for the village.

He simply hoped that Rei Amamiya would be wary of the Uchiha clan.

"Alright, there are quite a few tasks in the village lately, including some S-rank missions. I'll trouble you to handle them."

Hiruzen Sarutobi said to Rei Amamiya.

The people who commissioned these S-rank missions were after Rei Amamiya.

With Rei Amamiya's current strength, S-rank missions are nothing special.

Chapter 281 Let's come again tomorrow!!

The land of rain.

Amegakure Village.

The Grand Altar of the Eternal Bliss Sect.

Rin had just seen off his followers when Orochimaru arrived.

Orochimaru is now a member of the Akatsuki organization, so he can freely enter and leave the headquarters of the Eternal Paradise Cult.

After all, in Rinzo's eyes, any member who joined the Akatsuki organization was equivalent to automatically joining the Eternal Bliss Cult.

Rin sat on his lotus platform, propping his head up with one hand, and smiled as he looked at Orochimaru who appeared before him.

Is there anything I can help you with?

Rinzo faced all his believers with a smile.

From the day he arrived in Amegakure, he always presented himself with a smile.

He has never lost his temper. He is the leader of the Eternal Bliss Sect, and there is nothing that can make him angry.

Rin looked at Orochimaru in front of him.
