Konoha Thief

Chapter 542 Appeasement Strategy
"Hokage-sama." Natsuki and Uchiha Fugaku saluted at the same time.

"Fuyue, oh? Natsuki is here too." Hiruzaru Sarutobi turned around from the window, slightly surprised.

"I was a little worried, so I took the liberty to come here." Xia Shu apologized.

"Yeah." Hiruzaru Sarutobi nodded his head, then ignored him, and said to Uchiha Fugaku, "You should be clear about what happened last night, and now I call you you because of this." .”

"Three generations of Hokage-sama, Kyuubi's psychic contract was already established when Madara left..." Uchiha Fugaku quickly explained.

"I'm not talking about Kyuubi's psychic contract, you should understand!" Hiruzaru Sarutobi interrupted with anger.

When Uchiha Fugaku heard the words, his eyes flickered.

In the ninja world, Uchiha's Sharingan is better than dealing with tailed beasts, and it is as famous as Senjujuma's Kidun, but what non-Uchiha people don't know is that they want to use Sharingan to control tailed beasts. It is impossible to do it with ordinary three hook jade.

So hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's words at this moment, he couldn't help but wonder if spies had been planted in the clan.

Such thoughts only existed in Uchiha Fugaku's mind for a moment, and then disappeared.After all, the fact that he opened the Kaleidoscope Sharingan is a secret even within the clan. Only the elders of the clan and a few Jonin who are popular and capable are the only ones who know about it. Reason to betray the clansmen.

So obviously, Sarutobi Hiruzen deduced something from the Nine-Tails Rebellion that happened yesterday, and he was testing him at this moment.

However, the opening of the Kaleidoscope Sharingan definitely cannot explain to Hiruzaru Sarutobi that Uchiha’s current situation in Konoha Village has been pushed to the edge. If there is such a big stimulus of the Kaleidoscope Sharingan, who will Know what to expect.

Besides, he had already discussed with the elders of the clan before coming here. Now that the fourth generation of Konoha Village has died, the village senior officials will definitely implement a strategy of appeasement to Uchiha. Calling him here is definitely not for deterrence, at least if it is for deterrence, It will definitely not be Sarutobi Hiruzen who will come forward.

So he calmed down in an instant.

"Hokage-sama, this is actually something that confuses me." Speaking of this, Uchiha Fugaku paused for a while, glanced at Natsuki who was listening, and saw that Sarutobi Hiruzen remained calm, so he continued, "Putting out Kyuubi's psychic contract, the one who can control the tailed beast must be the Kaleidoscope Sharingan that is higher than the Sangoudama, but in the history of the Uchiha clan, there are very few people who have opened the Kaleidoscope Sharingan. The tribe is also from the Warring States period."

"You mean Madara Uchiha?" Hiruzaru Sarutobi raised his eyebrows with a slight sneer.

"It is indeed possible." Uchiha Fugaku nodded seriously.

Xia Shu found it extremely interesting to watch the two sides back and forth, but seeing the atmosphere fell silent, he couldn't just be a bystander.

"Third generations, when you came in just now, there were many ninjas crowded in the corridor, most of them were because of what happened last night." Xia Shu said briefly, and then persuaded: "Now the people in the village are fluctuating, and they are all waiting for you to host The overall situation, to comfort the tragedy that has happened, please shift your attention to the villagers as soon as possible."

Uchiha Fugaku heard the words, and quickly gave Natsuki a thankful look.

"Oh!~ I understand, I understand." Hiruzaru Sarutobi swallowed the smoke, sighed and nodded after a while, with a sad expression showing in the furrows of the wrinkles, and then raised his head to look at Fugaku Uchiha, "Fugaku , go back to appease your people, and I will give a reasonable explanation to the villagers."

"Yes, Sandai-sama!" Uchiha Fugaku's eyes brightened slightly, he immediately nodded in salute, then turned and opened the door to leave.

The door of the office was closed by him, leaving only Natsuki and Hiruzaru Sarutobi in the room.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi replaced the pipe with new tobacco, but couldn't find the match for a while. Seeing this, Xia Shu stepped forward and rubbed his hands with the fire to create a flame.

Taking a deep breath, Hiruzaru Sarutobi raised his hand and made a gesture, and the ninja Anbe who was hiding in the dark immediately appeared, kneeling in the center of the office and waiting for the order.

"Call the current jounin in the village, and hold a jonin meeting in the name of my third Hokage." Hiruzaru Sarutobi's eyes looked a little blurred in the light blue smoke, as if he was thinking about something.

"Of course!" Anbu replied, and then disappeared instantly.

After the Anbe ninja left, seeing that Hiruzaru Sarutobi had no intention of speaking, Natsuki wanted to speak.

But when he opened his mouth slightly, Hiruzaru Sarutobi suddenly said: "Is it about Naruto?"

Xia Shu was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Three generations of masters have learned a lesson."

"Oh, I knew it." Hiruzaru Sarutobi squeezed the center of his brows with a headache, and said patiently: "Naruto is not only the orphan of the fourth generation, but also Jinchuriki of the Nine Tails. He must be under strict protection. We must be careful Even prevent his identity from being known by those with malicious intentions..."

"Master Sandai!" Xia Shu interrupted suddenly before Sarutobi Hiruzen finished speaking.

This is not only impolite, but also suspected of overstepping, but he doesn't seem to care about these.

"I dare not say that I can fully understand your thoughts, but I believe that you have a heart to protect Naruto. But if he is ignored because of his status as Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and he is still the son of the fourth generation, then no matter for those who know , Minato and Kushina who have already left us, are all kind of cruelty and cruelty." Xia Shu suddenly realized that the words were a bit more serious, and quickly apologized: "Sorry, three generations, I just... "

"It's okay." Hiruzaru Sarutobi shook his head and sighed: "It seems that you have already guessed my thoughts. I can understand your feelings, especially your guilt towards Minato, but there are some things that even if we don't want to , and have to do that.”

"It is true, but there is always a compromise way to deal with things." Xia Shu pondered for a moment, and then expressed his thoughts, "Master Three Generations, have you ever thought that perhaps the identity of the son of the Fourth Generation is the identity of the son of Naruto Nine? The biggest disguise of Ojinchuriki's identity?"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi paused slightly when he heard the words holding the pipe, then frowned slightly, squinted his eyes and began to ponder.

Xia Shu continued: "And we can use this as a reason to teach Naruto specially. When he grows up to be able to bear the power of the Nine Tails, even the people hiding in the dark still have ulterior motives, but in the face of Naruto, who has mastered the power of the Nine Tails, will only end in failure."

"It makes sense." Hiruzaru Sarutobi frowned, waved his hand and said, "I'll think about this again, and prepare to attend the Jōnin meeting first."
