The Shimura clan leader parted ways with the spy and returned to the Shimura clan.

"Shihui is back, how is it? Are you confident about the Chunin Exam?"

Zhihui is the son of the Shimura clan leader and a student at the Ninja School. Normally, it is difficult for the father and son to see each other, and even if they meet, it is only a quick meeting. Today, both of them have some free time, so naturally the father wants to care about his son.

"Father, of course I have confidence. My dream is to become a Hokage. A Chunin Exam is not a problem for me."

Zhihui is confident in his abilities and believes that he will shine in the Chunin Exams.

"Shihui, it's good that you have confidence, but you must not be complacent. You must remember this. By the way, Shihui, how are the Genin of your class doing?"

Patriarch Shimura taught Zhihui that he didn't want his son to become a person with high expectations but poor skills. In the end, he did not forget to inquire about the Genin of the same class as his son. If there were any stumbling blocks for his son, he would not mind using some small tricks to clear the obstacles for his son.

"Among the Genin of my class, no one is my opponent except Sarutobi Sasuke and Uzumaki Suzuna. Now Sarutobi Sasuke and I are teammates, and that annoying red-haired Uzumaki Suzuna can only lead two slackers to carry out some D-rank missions to find cats."

When Zhihui mentioned Uzumaki Suzuna, he made no secret of his dislike for her, and when he mentioned Uzumaki Suzuna's last-place teammates, his tone was full of gloating.

When Chief Shimura heard Shihui mention Uzumaki Suzuna, his heart moved. This name was among the files he needed to collect, but Chief Shimura knew that everything he did was a betrayal of Konoha Village, so he would not let his son get involved.

“Zhihui, I just told you not to be complacent, have you forgotten? Even if Uzumaki Suzuna’s teammates are the last, does that mean you will definitely win? I will punish you by making you practice hand seals 500 times.”

The original intention of the Shimura clan leader was to wake up his son Zhihui by hinting at it indirectly, but Zhihui did not think of this. He just felt that his father scolded him and punished him for that annoying red-haired guy. Now Zhihui no longer hates Uzumaki Suzuna, but hates her, deeply hates her.

Chief Shimura felt that his son Zhihui would surely understand his good intentions, so he secretly summoned all the tribe members to a secret room to summarize the stolen intelligence.

……

Tobirama has been busy these days, secretly investigating who leaked the information. He has made some progress recently, but most of them are small fry.

Tobirama followed the clues of these small fish and shrimps and finally locked his target on the family in Konoha Village. Tobirama knew that things were going to be difficult now.

If the people in these families were asked to choose between Konoha Village and their own families, they would definitely choose their own families, so it would be harder than climbing to the sky if you wanted them to report their families.

However, Tobirama is a smart man who is good at thinking. When encountering a problem, the first thing he thinks of is to solve it, instead of throwing the problem to others to solve like Kamui. It is precisely because of this that Hokage Madara particularly values ​​Tobirama and lets him take on multiple roles.

After a series of investigations, Tobirama discovered that the family that leaked the information was the Shimura clan, but as he had no evidence to prove it, he sent people to monitor the Shimura clan's every move.

"Minister, Chief Shimura secretly convened a clan meeting, apparently to arrange how to pass on the information. Should we take action here?"

An ANBU captain reports to Tobirama about the situation within the Shimura clan.

"No rush. This time we not only need to catch the Shimura clan who leaked the information, but also catch all the spies they contacted."

Tobirama did not value the small profits in front of him. He had been busy for so many days, and how could he just catch a member of the Shimura clan who leaked information? That would be impossible. He had to eradicate this intelligence chain.

……

"Today's clan meeting ends here. We must pass on the information we have collected before the evening. Recently, I always feel that someone is watching my every move, so to be safe, the action of passing on the information will be put after the Chunin Exams. Everyone can take a break during this time. I will take this opportunity to cheer for Zhihui."

The head of the Shimura clan seemed to have noticed Tobirama's surveillance of him, so he decided to suspend business and stay out of the spotlight, and take this opportunity to see Shihui's wonderful performance in the Chunin Exam, which was really killing two birds with one stone.

The clan members came out of the secret room and left the Shimura clan one after another, delivering the last information before the end of the Chunin Exam.

After all the members of the Shimura clan were sent out to pass on information, Tobirama visited the chief of the Shimura clan.

Tobirama and clan leader Shimura were polite to each other on the surface, but in fact they each had ulterior motives in their hearts.

Chief Shimura was chatting with Tobirama when a member of the Shimura clan ran in in a panic.

When Chief Shimura saw his people in such a panic, he knew something must have happened, and he quickly signaled to them with his eyes that there were outsiders present and that they could talk later, but he was still a step too late.

"Chief, something has happened. There is an ambush at the place where we trade intelligence. Our clan members and the contact have been captured by the Anbu."

The Shimura clan member noticed Tobirama only after he finished speaking. He knew he had said the wrong thing, so he stood aside without saying a word.

When the Shimura clan leader saw that the truth was revealed and Tobirama was still calm, he had no idea that all this was Tobirama's doing.

Chief Shimura smiled sadly and said.

"I know that leaking the village's intelligence is a capital crime, but I have only one request. My son Zhihui is innocent. He didn't know about it and he wasn't involved. I just want him to live."

Chief Shimura took all the blame on himself, just to save his son's life.

"Patriarch Shimura has admitted that he leaked information. Then please write down all the channels for transmitting information, the contact locations, and the contact codes."

Tobirama handed over a pen and paper, meaning for Chief Shimura to write down everything he knew.

In order to save Shihui's life, the Shimura clan leader naturally did not dare to hide anything. He quickly filled three pages of paper and handed them to Tobirama after he finished.

Tobirama took a look at them, then handed them to the Shimura clan member who had run back, and said.

"According to what is written above, send people to catch them all in one fell swoop."

The Shimura clan member formed a seal to cancel his transformation technique and restored his original appearance. It was Tobirama's Anbu. The Anbu took the evidence from Tobirama and left the Shimura clan.

"Tobirama, the head of the Anbu, you have a really good method. It really opens my eyes."

When Chief Shimura saw that the Anbu had returned to his true form, he naturally connected everything together. He could only blame himself for losing his composure and being tricked by Tobirama.

Based on the evidence provided by Chief Shimura, the Anbu team wiped out all the spies, big and small, in the village in just one night.

The next day, the head of the Shimura clan was taken away by the Anbu. In order to give an explanation to the villagers, the crimes of the Shimura clan were announced. Only then did the villagers know that the Shimura clan had actually leaked the village's information to people outside the village, and naturally they couldn't help but spit on and abuse the Shimura clan.

As the son of the Shimura clan leader, although it has been proven that Zhihui has nothing to do with leaking the village's intelligence, he is still branded as a little traitor and is looked down upon by others. At first, Zhihui would argue with others, his face turning red and his neck getting thick. Later, Zhihui gradually stopped arguing with others, let things go, and became silent.

……

There is solid evidence that Chief Shimura leaked the village's intelligence. According to Konoha law, he must be executed immediately. Before the execution, Chief Shimura asks to see his son Shihui again.

Tobirama agreed, and Shikei was soon brought to reunite with the Shimura clan leader.

"Zhihui, do you hate me?"

The Shimura clan leader wanted to know what Shihhui thought of him as a father.

"I…"

Zhihui hesitated. After all the abuse that the villagers had directed at the Zhimura family during this period of time, it would be a lie to say that Zhihui did not hate his father in his heart. But he was his father after all, and no matter what his father did, it could not change the relationship between them. Zhihui also knew that this might be the last time he would see his father, and he did not want his father to leave with sadness.

"I... don't hate my father."

As soon as Zhihui finished speaking, the chief of the Zhicun clan slapped Zhihui in the face.

"I leaked the village's information. I am a sinner of Konoha Village, and you are a ninja loyal to Konoha Village. You must hate me. I ask you again, do you hate me?"

Although Chief Shimura did not see it, he could guess Zhihui's situation in the village. When he heard Zhihui say that he did not hate him, Chief Shimura was so happy at that moment, but he could not show it. He had to harden his heart and force his son Zhihui to draw a clear line between himself and him. Only in this way could he realize his son Zhihui's dream of becoming Hokage.

"I don't hate my father." Zhihui said firmly.

As expected, Zhihui was slapped by the Shimura clan leader again and asked the same question again.

No matter how hard and painful the slap from Chief Shimura was, Zhihui kept repeating the five words "I don't hate my father" and refused to give in.

Every slap that Chief Shimura slapped was on Zhihui's body, and the pain was in his heart. Finally, Chief Shimura could not bring himself to do it anymore.

"Tobirama, I ask you for one last thing. I only ask you to accept Zhihui as your disciple. Tobirama, I beg you."

The Shimura clan leader knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, as if to say, "I will keep kowtow unless Tobirama agrees."

Zhihui didn't want his father to ask others for help for him, so he wanted to help his father up, but was pushed away by his father.

"I promise you." Tobirama said.

The Shimura clan leader was immediately overjoyed, and pulled Zhihui to kowtow together. Zhihui was still a little reluctant, so the Shimura clan leader pressed him to the ground and made him worship Tobirama as his teacher.

After Zhihui became his disciple, the chief of the Zhicun clan felt relieved. He looked at Zhihui deeply, then left without looking back.

"He's a good father."

Tobirama said, patting Shiki's shoulder.

Zhihui burst into tears.
