"The specific reason for the battle is unknown, the specific participants are unknown, but there are massive chakra traces left at the scene, and the chakra is complex, suggesting a battle between multiple people?"

"Besides that, although no corpse was found, they did find the insects of the Aburame clan?"

"After authentication by Aburame Shibi, it is the Aburame clan's insect control technique?"

"Is Danzo in charge of the overall situation?"

Seeing the information in the scroll, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately felt his brain buzzing.

Each piece of information taken out individually was enough to make one feel goosebumps.

Combined together, it made Hiruzen Sarutobi feel his breathing become rapid!

"Although there aren't many forces in the ninja world that can cause such a commotion, Konoha definitely has them, and..."

And one is Uchiha Shisui, who possesses the Mangekyo Sharingan, and the other is Hidekazu, who possesses Wood Release!

Hiruzen Sarutobi knows that Hidekazu can use the Wood Human Technique; both Jiraiya and Kakashi have reported this.

And Shisui possesses the Mangekyo Sharingan and has mastered Susanoo; he is already a powerful ninja who can control the Mangekyo's power!

In theory, Hidekazu and Shisui shouldn't be fighting.

Even if it was just an unintentional act at the beginning, who would have thought that he would personally team up the excellent members of the Uchiha and Senju clans, and they would have bonds with each other.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi would not ignore his old friend, Danzo Shimura; the Aburame clan's insects already explained some problems.

Admittedly, the village should not interfere in the affairs of the clans, but there is room for maneuver.

The Root was destroyed miserably; although Hiruzen Sarutobi was really happy, after all, his old friend was not honest and obedient, but the power of the Root was still very important.

Moreover, the destruction of the Root was equivalent to a major weakening, and his old friend did have the ability, so he acquiesced to his old friend rebuilding the Root.

Of course, he did not deny that he had some small thoughts, such as his old friend always dreaming of becoming Hokage.

Then, letting him come forward to forcibly conscript the outstanding members of those clans would basically completely cut off his future path to Hokage.

But now, he really wanted to give himself a few heavy slaps!

The Root was rebuilt, but Hidekazu's appearance caused his old friend's ambition to skyrocket.

He had no doubt that this incident was Danzo's own decision while he was away from Konoha.

The Aburame clan mentioned in the letter already explained the problem; Aburame Ryoma was Danzo's most loyal lackey!

And Danzo's target, without accident, must be Uchiha Shisui; that child possesses the Mangekyo Sharingan and has long been on Danzo's list.

Thinking of the Uchiha's reaction, thinking of how he had been trying to see if he could pull the Uchiha, this group of lunatics, back.

If nothing else, stabilizing Shisui and creating a 'New Uchiha' was not impossible.

But now, everything was over!

Although he didn't know the result, but since the corpses couldn't be found and Danzo was still in charge of the overall situation, it meant he had won.

And with the loss of Shisui, a gentle, powerful, and charismatic person, the Uchiha would only become more insane, and all his plans would be bankrupt.

But he couldn't say anything, and even had to clean up Danzo's mess, because this matter was something Konoha could not admit under any circumstances.

Openly attacking the ninjas of their own village would destroy their credibility.

Even if they said that Shisui attacked first, it would be useless; Danzo's reputation was too bad!

Especially now that Konoha was facing internal and external troubles, some things could not be expanded any further.

"Shimura Danzo, I..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi roared in his heart, and the next moment he suddenly felt a burst of dizziness, and then he slammed heavily on the desk in the camp.

"Hey, old man, what's the matter that you're in such a hurry to find us?"

But at this moment, Tsunade's voice rang out, but soon it was a scene of chaos!

"Old man, what are you playing at?"

"Hey, hey, hey, don't have an accident, I don't want to be Hokage!"

"Wake up, hey!"

"Still no results?"

"Yes, clan leader."

At the same time that Hiruzen Sarutobi fainted from anger, within the Uchiha clan in Konoha, Uchiha Fugaku was also in an exceptionally bad mood.

Uchiha Shisui had really seemed to have evaporated from the world; no matter how they searched, they could not find this genius of the clan!

This situation seemed to indicate one thing: that night's battle was probably really related to Shisui.

"Clan leader, I'm afraid Shisui has already met with misfortune..."

Uchiha Yashiro's face was extremely ugly; although he was unwilling to admit it, the fact seemed to be heading towards the worst possible outcome.

"We cannot let Konoha be so arrogant; such unscrupulous actions against us are simply unforgivable!

Clan leader, although the news has not spread, there are already speculations within the clan, and now that the Third Hokage is not in the village, we..."

"Shut up!"

Uchiha Fugaku interrupted Uchiha Yashiro with an angry shout before he could finish speaking.

"Calm down; now is not the time to do these things; if we act directly now, then we will become unreasonable people!

Moreover, our loss of Shisui is equivalent to losing an important force; messing around at this time will only give those with ulterior motives a chance!"

Uchiha Yashiro clenched his fists; he understood what his clan leader meant, but was he just going to let it go like this?

"We are now at a critical period; we cannot be driven by emotions."

Uchiha Fugaku's heart was also full of anger, but he still forced himself to calm down.

"With such a thing happening, even if others don't know the cause, the entire village is in the eye of the storm, completely on guard.

Although we Uchiha are strong, we cannot contend with the entire village!

Don't forget our original plan; controlling the entire Konoha also requires controlling that Third Hokage!"

Uchiha Fugaku's scalp was really tingling; in fact, the entire Uchiha clan had a kind of blind confidence, confident that they could confront the entire village.

However, as the clan head, he couldn't be so confident, especially since he had access to a lot of information.

For example, the Second Hokage once relied on the Flying Thunder God Technique to defeat Uchiha Izuna, who also possessed the Mangekyo Sharingan, and Hashirama Senju even defeated Uchiha Madara!

Moreover, Tobirama Senju had always been hostile towards the Uchiha, and who knew how much he had prepared.

And now, Konoha also had someone who possessed both the Flying Thunder God Technique and Wood Release, if they really went crazy, they would definitely be wiped out!

Therefore, his plan was to target Konoha's 'Four Giants', relying on his and Shisui's Mangekyo to quickly resolve the problem.

After taking care of Konoha's 'Four Giants', he would then divide the spoils with the other clans, he knew very well that the Ino-Shika-Cho trio were all 'whoever wins, they help'.

As long as he won, and offered substantial benefits, there was a high probability that the problem could be solved.

"We must remain calm now, calm, understand?"

Fugaku Uchiha looked at the dissatisfied Uchiha Yashiro, and he sighed helplessly.

"Also, Shisui's matter will not be left like this, we must demand an explanation.

Moreover, we need to be more cautious and keep the clan members low-profile and focused, only in this way can we truly succeed, do you understand?"

"I understand, Clan Head."

Uchiha Yashiro was somewhat unwilling, but in the end, he nodded.

"Then I'll take my leave first."

"Yes, go."

Fugaku Uchiha patted Uchiha Yashiro's shoulder, then watched his subordinate leave.

"Sigh."

After Uchiha Yashiro's figure completely disappeared, he sighed helplessly.

How could he not be angry in his heart, how could he not want to directly take revenge, but he knew very well that he really couldn't act now.

The Uchiha were not prepared in the first place, and now they had also lost Shisui, he could only be more careful.

"Is this a warning? Hmph, I have learned my lesson, then I will make good use of this warning and be even more low-profile!"

"This matter will not pass so easily, Danzo Shimura, I know it's you!"

Clenching his fist, Fugaku Uchiha turned and left the spot, but he didn't notice that in a hidden corner, a pair of eyes had been watching them all along.

"Going to attack the Hokage?"

"And Danzo Shimura, the person Shisui wrote about in his letter is you."

Konoha and the Uchiha were now in a state of frenzy, and the instigators, Danzo and Shūzawa, were also polarized.

Danzo was now very happy and also an ostrich. What was happy was that he could temporarily preside over the overall situation, even if it was only temporarily experiencing the taste of power, it made him feel like he was going to heaven.

And being an ostrich naturally meant that Shisui Uchiha's matter was really related to him!

He was trying his best to prevent things from developing in this direction, and he couldn't figure out a problem.

Clearly he did it, and Shūzawa also did it, but when he turned around, how did he become the one to be done?

Being stubborn became his only choice now.

Compared to Danzo, Shūzawa was much more comfortable. As a worker, what he had to do was to complete the work targets. As for the collateral damage caused by the studio?

That was the boss's business, he wouldn't empathize with the boss!

"You're too lazy, aren't you?"

In the Senju clan's ancestral home, Yūgao looked helplessly at Shūzawa, who was 'slouching', she couldn't help but complain.

"The entire Anbu is extremely busy now, and you're still slacking off, that's too much!"

"But, didn't you come back too?"

Shūzawa blinked and looked at Yūgao with a smile, which immediately made Yūgao even more dissatisfied.

"I was pulled back by you, I still wanted to do the investigation!"

With such a big incident, the Anbu members stationed in Konoha naturally had to bear the responsibility of the investigation, but Shūzawa didn't care about it at all.

I investigate myself?

Forget it, Shūzawa had no interest in this kind of thing that was destined to have no results.

"Alright, don't investigate this matter, there won't be any results."

Shūzawa sat up and grabbed Yūgao, then pulled her to sit in front of him despite her exclamation.

Smelling the fragrance coming from the girl's body, he smiled and said.

"The complexity of this matter is not ordinary, haven't you noticed that the various families are putting in effort without actually contributing to the investigation?

Moreover, the people above are also tight-lipped about this matter, haven't you seen the problem with such an obvious signal?"

Don't use such a posture to talk to me.

Feeling the heat exhaled in her ear, lowering her head to avoid the obstruction of her line of sight, and glancing at her abdomen, which was being hugged from behind.

Yūgao felt helpless, even though she was already used to Shūzawa's intimate actions, but now Shūzawa's movements were still a bit 'too much'.

"So, you know some secrets about this matter?"

Yūgao asked, following Shūzawa's words, while subtly trying to move out of Shūzawa's embrace, but she quickly found out in frustration that Shūzawa was hugging her even tighter.

"Sort of."

Shūzawa nodded, holding the delicate body in his arms, pondered for a moment, and then slowly opened his mouth.

"Some people are going crazy for something, and always think they are in control of everything, but in the end, who is themselves is just a mantis and cicada running all over the ground.

This kind of person, the higher they climb, the more miserable they will fall, but that has nothing to do with us, I still prefer to hold you like this and watch the sunrise and sunset."

"Muttering to yourself, what are you talking about?"

Yūgao snorted lightly, she naturally knew that Shūzawa's words had a hidden meaning, but she didn't understand it at all.

But she didn't ask, because she knew that it was useless to ask some things, besides, she wasn't interested in these things in the first place.

For her, admiring flowers and being with the person she loves for a long time were the things she was most interested in.
