The assistant handed the scroll to Danzo, who looked down at it for a while.

Danzo saw that the fox had gathered intelligence on the Kirigakure ninja at the beach and entered the battlefield a day earlier than the pre-battle battle plan.

The five battalions captured the Mist Ninja who had set the trap, resulting in a major defeat for the Mist Ninja.

Danzo's left eye, which was not covered by bandages, contracted instantly, making the pupil appear smaller and more dangerous.

The yellow dog's subordinates are growing too fast. Why has the fox that suddenly appeared become such a big problem?

After Danzo finished reading the scroll, he said:

"Very good. The main reason for this mission is the excellent formulation of the Yellow Dog's combat plan and the comprehensive intelligence reconnaissance."

I will apply for an S-rank mission reward for you.

The yellow dog waited a few seconds, but heard nothing more, so it asked:

"Commander-in-Chief, will the four Jonin captains, including Yamashiroji and Uchiha Touka, as well as the Anbu Lieutenant Captain Fox and others, be able to obtain the S-rank mission reward?"

Danzo frowned: "Yellow Dog, you have no right to question the mission rating."

Mission ratings are determined by command. If everyone questions the mission ratings, how can the mission system function?

Upon hearing this, the yellow dog said nothing more.

He had no intention of continuing to argue with Danzo, and after exchanging a few perfunctory words, he left the command tent.

Uchiha Touka, Uchiha Do, Yamashiroji, and Gekko-michi were resentful, but said nothing on the surface.

After walking a distance, Uchiha Touka said:

"I'm sorry, Jonin Yamashiroji and Jonin Gekko-shu. It's our Uchiha clan that has implicated you two."

Commander-in-Chief Danzo is extremely dissatisfied with the Uchiha clan's performance and will not easily grant us an S-rank mission reward.

"If we weren't involved in the mission, such a resounding victory would have guaranteed you two an S-rank mission reward."

The yellow dog turned its head and looked at Uchiha Touka with a strange expression.

His impression of Uchiha Toho changed drastically.

As expected of the young Uchiha clan leader and a Jonin in charge, both his strength and his thinking are those of an elite member of the Uchiha clan.

Night Light thought to himself, "Uchiha Touko, why did you steal Yellow Dog's lines?"

This mission included the yellow dog and the Uchiha clan, whom Danzo disliked. With the yellow dog as the commander, such a great victory deserved an S-rank mission reward.

No one else could receive the S-rank mission reward from Danzo.

After watching the other Jonin leave, Uchiha Touka and Uchiha Do went to find the clan head.

The two greeted Uchiha Zhong and returned together to the Uchiha clan's tent area.

After entering his tent, Uchiha Zhong sat wearily in a chair and said:

"Why is Danzo so hostile towards our Uchiha clan? I wouldn't say I was extremely respectful, but at least I didn't overlook any details and didn't offend him in any way..."

Uchiha Touka pointed outside, and Uchiha Do quickly went out to check if there were any surveillance cameras around.

After hearing Uchiha Dao's safety gesture through the gap in the curtain, Uchiha Touka said, "Clan leader, I have a guess."

"What guess?"

Uchiha Touka said:

“I handled many cases in the security department, and one case in particular left a deep impression on me.”

A prisoner accidentally killed an old man from Konoha, but he managed to escape investigation at the time.

In the following years, the perpetrator killed several of the victim's sons.

When I interrogated him, I asked him why he did it.

He said that after he accidentally killed the old man, he was afraid that the old man's son would find out that he was the one who killed him, so he kept observing the old man's son and provoking him.

He believed that every son who was hostile to him had discovered that he was the murderer.

Therefore, he became hostile towards that family and wished he could kill them as soon as possible.

This behavior can be called 'retaliatory attribution', which involves believing that the family's whistleblowing, testimony, or revenge will lead to one's own death.

Or it could be called a 'psychologically distorted projection'—rather than waiting for the victim's relatives to seek revenge, it's better to strike first.

Chieftain, we cannot end the investigation into Jing's death...

"Stop talking!" Uchiha Zhong stopped Uchiha Dong Huo, his eyes flickering, but he ultimately gave up.

"Dong Huo, your most important task now is to nurture Fugaku and help him realize his potential. I will handle everything else."

"Okay, I understand."

Uchiha Touko didn't say anything more.

He also had some doubts, wondering if Fugaku could lead the Uchiha clan to revival.

He understood Fugaku, and just as the Dark Guardian's Copper Fox had said, the young clan leader was not aggressive.

“No, you don’t understand,” Uchiha Zhong said.

"The Uchiha clan has original sin."

Madara Uchiha betrayed the village after its founding and returned twice, threatening to destroy it.

The second time he returned with the Nine-Tails, he died at the hands of the First Hokage, which also caused the First Hokage to age prematurely.

If the Uchiha clan wants to survive in the village, they must learn to compromise.

The Nine-Tails' transfer and sealing rampage severely damaged the Senju clan; the village claims it was Madara Uchiha who was responsible.

That ancestor was truly a living ancestor, showing absolutely no consideration for the Uchiha clan.

Look at the Uzumaki clan; their strength is no weaker than that of the Uchiha clan. Uzumaki Village and the Land of Whirlpools form a village-country alliance.

So what if Uzushiogakure is so strong?

Without Konoha's genuine protection, wouldn't such a powerful ninja clan be wiped out overnight?

If we leave Konoha, the other four great ninja villages will pounce on us like hungry wolves and gouge out our Sharingan.

If you stay in Konoha, you must learn to be patient and wait.

Perhaps the family will have a bright future under Fugaku's control.

All ninjas will die.

Anyone who is hostile to us may die in some accident.

What we need to do is wait and carry on the legacy, not make enemies everywhere.

Uchiha Touka thought to himself, perhaps the mild-mannered personality of the young clan leader Fugaku is the result of the clan leader's constant teachings.

He was also troubled by his family's predicament, as he couldn't find a way to break the deadlock in a short period of time.

I can only endure it.

Since Uchiha Kagami's death, there has been no communication bridge between the clan and the village leadership, making everything very difficult.

As the village's law enforcement agency, the security department can easily tarnish the Uchiha clan's reputation with just a little sensationalism over any case.

Strict enforcement is criticized as being too harsh.

Enforcement has been lax, leading to accusations of inaction.

If the villagers of Konoha were to solve the case, every Uchiha ninja would face the death penalty.

Seeing Uchiha Touka's worried expression, Uchiha Zhong said, "Touka, there's no need to worry. The war in the Land of Whirlpools is about to end."

"The end? It's about to end?"

Uchiha Zhong said:

"I saw the war report; the war with the Land of Earth is already under negotiation."

Once the war in the Land of Earth ends, the war in the Land of Whirlpools will inevitably end.

Genji probably didn't want to see Mitokado Homura and Orochimaru on the battlefield either.

Orochimaru earned the title of "Cold Lord" in the Land of Grass and the Land of Earth.

There was no other reason; he had killed too many people.

When Iwa ninja encounter Orochimaru, they don't even leave behind their corpses; some are even swallowed alive by Orochimaru's summoned snake.

Aside from the impact of the Land of Earth battlefield, the Anbu Yellow Dog Battalion came to the front lines precisely to end the war.

The Dark Division already has a battalion under the command of the Second Generation Leader at the front line, and the Third Generation Leader has also sent the Yellow Dog Battalion.

The Yellow Dog Squad has achieved a resounding victory, and I suspect the Third Hokage will use this victory to force Kirigakure to the negotiating table.

Our Uchiha clan has lost over 150 men on the front lines. The war is nearing its end, and we can return to our village now.

Chapter 189 Intelligence Reconciliation

Back in the Yellow Dogs' tent area, Ye Guang found Yellow Dog and said:

"Captain Yellow Dog, I'm going to the coastline again to investigate the movements of the Hozuki clan."

After Light's death, the Hozuki clan won't let this go; they might be planning something big.

The yellow dog was very pleased:

"Fox, you are the most proactive ANBU ninja I have ever seen."

I just received news that Advisor Mitokado Homura has left the Land of Earth and is on his way to the Land of Whirlpools.

He will represent Konoha in negotiations with Kirigakure.

The war is almost over; the Second Shinobi World War is almost over.

Mitokado Homura's departure from the Land of Earth and his appearance in the Land of Whirlpools proves that the war in the Land of Earth is coming to an end.

With all other wars over, Konoha Village is now fighting Kirigakure Village alone. How can Kirigakure Village possibly win?

Yellow Dog continued, "When the war ends and rewards are distributed according to merit, I will be promoted to deputy head of the Dark Division, and you will be the captain."

"From now on, when we meet, I'll have to call you Lord Yellow Dog!"

"Captain Fox, let's make progress together."

A certain atmosphere of joy, or rather, the thrill of collusion, reached its climax in mutual flattery.

Both of them were completely satisfied.

"Lord Yellow Dog, now that you mention it, I'm even more eager to handle the aftermath. I'll set off right now to investigate the Hozuki clan's revenge."

"Go."

After leaving the camp, Ye Guang quickly found the Aries squad that was returning.

Aries quickly whispered, "Captain, those two corpses have been destroyed! Someone discovered my setup and sabotaged my traps!"

Ye Guang thought to himself, "As expected, we still haven't been able to get any evidence. The Root ninjas reacted very quickly." He said:

"The three members of the squad are returning to the camp. Aries, come with me."

After everyone else had left, Ye Guang said:

"Aries, I've received orders from the captain to investigate a Root ninja of the Aburame clan. You're in charge of finding his parasitic insects."

Although Otoko's identity is mysterious, Yako knows that his name is Aburame Ryoma.

"Ok!"

Aries thought to himself, "This time I must find evidence that the root of the gang framed the team. I can't make the same mistake again."

The Oil Women are easy to find. Wherever they go, they habitually release parasites to keep watch in the surrounding area.

While the Night Light couldn't find the Aromatic Dragon Horse, the Aries could find him with ease.

The two searched the beach all day when Aries suddenly exclaimed, "Found it! Captain!"

Ye Guang said, "Okay, Aries, tell me the direction, then find a place to hide. The next investigation mission is too dangerous, I will complete it alone."

After roughly marking out the range of the other female ninja's insects, Aries left the squad leader.

He's an ANBU ninja; he won't meddle in things he shouldn't know.
