Yayoi ignored Danzo's barking and directly told the attendees why she wanted to move the orphanage:

"A few nights ago, the orphanage was attacked by '24' foreign ninja forces. Among them was a ninja who specialized in illusion. It seems that his background is not simple."

Having said this, Yayoi also glanced at Danzo's position with meaning.

Feeling his malicious gaze, Danzo frowned and turned his head to the side.

"Fortunately, it happened that a dozen ninjas from the orphanage went back to visit their relatives that day, and these people were captured in one fell swoop. Now, these intruders have been transferred to the guard headquarters."

Yayoi continued:

“So, for the safety of the orphanage, I want to relocate it near the headquarters of the police force.”

After listening silently, the Third Hokage stared at Yayoi and said:

"In principle, I have no objection to this matter."

"Hiruzhan! You..." Danzo hesitated to speak in response to the Third Generation's behavior of trying to undermine him in person.

"But..." Sandai ignored Danzo and continued:

"The area near the police force headquarters is the territory of the Uchiha clan. I cannot make decisions for them."

As soon as the third generation finished speaking, a representative of the ninja clan who attended the meeting stood up from his seat and said:

"Our Guard agrees to this request!"

"..."

"Uchiha Fugaku?!" Both the Third Generation and Danzo were slightly surprised by this unexpected situation.

The representative of the ninja clan who spoke this time was the current clan leader of the Uchiha clan - 'Uchiha Fugaku'.

"We Uchiha people are happy to accept these poor children." Uchiha Fugaku said sternly:

"At the same time, in order to avoid the possibility of espionage that Danzo-sama is worried about, these orphans should be put under the eyes of our guards!"

"..."

Although there is nothing wrong with these words, I still feel that they are not consistent with Uchiha's painting style? !

When did the Uchiha clan become so loving to a group of weak outsiders?They would actually take the initiative to share the worries of the village?

More importantly, when did Uzumaki Yayoi, the recognized Sannin disciple of the Hokage clan and second only to Minato in reputation among the younger generation, hook up with the Uchiha clan? !

Both the Third Generation and Danzo felt uneasy about the situation being beyond their control.

As the Third Ninja War broke out unexpectedly, many things have gradually deviated from the control of the top few people.

……

Since the Third Hokage had spoken first, and Uchiha Fugaku, the head of the Uchiha clan, had also spoken, even if some people still had concerns, the orphanage's relocation was already a certainty.

Finally, the second enlarged plenary meeting of Konoha's high-level officials concluded successfully.

As the ninja representatives from all parties left the meeting, the conference room gradually became quiet.

In the huge space, only the four highest-ranking leaders of Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, Koharu Koharu, and Mito Kadeno were left.

In front of a few old friends who knew everything about it, the Third Hokage took out his pipe, twisted the tobacco, lit a fire, and took a long puff.

The sparks in the pipe flickered on and off as the third-generation old man inhaled, just like the old man's tangled mood now.

In the eyes of the third generation, everything related to the Uchiha clan, especially the clan leader Fugaku, was a major event.

Not to mention, another person related to him has suddenly emerged among the younger generation, making him wary of the 'Little Orochimaru' Uzumaki Yayoi.

Compared with these two, the orphanage's military resources are nothing.

At this time, Danzo, who had a gloomy face, came closer like a ghost and said sadly:

"Hiruzhan, it's time to take some measures, otherwise, the current Uzumaki Yayoi will be the next Orochimaru..., no, the next Hatake Shigesaku!"

Upon hearing the name 'Hatake Shigesaku', the Third Hokage immediately glared, his dissatisfaction with Danzo almost written on his face, and the other two Hokage advisors also looked secretive.

It seems that the name of the deceased, 'Hatake Shigesaku', has become a taboo among several people that cannot be mentioned.

Among them, these four old guys secretly contributed to the Konoha White Fang suicide incident. The original purpose was just to suppress Hatake Shigesaku's rising reputation.

But they never thought that White Fang was as pure, hard, and sharp as the white blade he wielded. He would rather break than surrender. He actually chose an ending that people like them had never even thought about - committing suicide.

After a moment of silence, the Third Hokage took a puff of smoke and said decisively:

"There's absolutely no way I'm going to let something like Shigesaku Hatake happen again!"

Hearing the name 'Hatake Shigesaku' come out of Danzo's mouth, the Sandaime's original fear of Yayoi faded away.

When Konoha White Fang committed suicide, even his numbness was like Mito Menitis, Koharu turned to bed, and he was as thick and black as the third generation, he felt a rare sense of regret and humiliation.

The wind that Danzo blew seemed to have the opposite effect.

"Now, everything must make way for winning this ninja war!"

In front of the three people, the Third Hokage set the tone for this matter: "All other matters will be discussed after the war!"

At the same time, the third generation old man sternly ordered Danzo:

"And your roots, keep your hands a little cleaner lately! Don't do any little tricks!"

After the long-lost sense of shame was evoked by White Fang's name, Mito Kabuto and Koharu also agreed with the Third Hokage's approach.

Seeing that his words had the opposite effect, Danzo, the old guy, felt helpless for a moment.

Under the unanimous opinions of the three senior leaders, Danzo could only temporarily give in.

……

outside the meeting room.

In just a few steps, Yayoi caught up with Uchiha Fugaku who had gone out first.

Now that the relationship between the two parties had been publicly stated at the meeting, the two no longer avoided suspicion, but started chatting very familiarly.

Yayoi first formally thanked Ichiban Uchiha Fugaku for taking care of the orphans.

Fugaku, a guy who obviously didn't have high emotional intelligence, seemed to be righteous at this time, and said seriously:

This is what I should do, the Uchiha clan is such a loving clan!If you are not convinced, come and argue!

As for the other ninja representatives who had not gone far, they only felt that what they saw were fake Uchiha.

It has to be said that the second generation Hokage Senju Tobirama transferred some of the internal law enforcement rights and made the Uchiha clan full-time Konoha guard. It has indeed effectively isolated the Uchiha clan and made it difficult for the Uchiha clan to accumulate positive reputation in the village.

A clan's long-term internal law enforcement has created a huge gap between the clan and the village, and between the police and the people, just like the natural chasm between the 'people' and the 'officials' in ancient times.
