"Hmph, this is the best."

After receiving the Hokage's promise, Uchiha River was satisfied. He glanced at Danzo next to him with cloudy eyes and said slowly:

"Those two children, whether they were kidnapped by people from other villages, or killed by some people in this village. No matter what, we have to give our Uchiha family an explanation. Otherwise, I can't explain to the clan. .”

"That's it, Sandaime, I'll take my leave now."

After that, he ignored Danzo's ugly expression next to him, nodded to the Hokage, and turned around to leave.

"call……"

After finally persuading the old man to leave, Sarutobi Hiruzen breathed a sigh of relief and sat back on the chair.

Danzo, on the other hand, looked unfazed.

The old man's last words obviously meant something.

It seemed that he suspected that the disappearance of those two people was related to Danzo.

Simply ridiculous.

Why should Danzo go to such trouble to snatch the Sharingan, and how could he make it known to everyone?

"Arrogant and rude old thing, as expected, the Uchiha family is all a bunch..."

While he was chanting like this, Sarutobi Hiruzen interrupted him and solemnly warned: "Danzo! The Uchiha clan members are also companions of the village. Don't forget this."

"Hiruzen, you must have forgotten Mr. Tobirama's teachings."

Danzo looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi without showing any signs of weakness.

"The Uchiha family is a naturally evil family. This is Master Tobirama's conclusion."

"Teacher Feijian..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent for a while, and then responded in a low voice: "I know that Mr. Tobirama handed over the management of the security department to the Uchiha family, which implies surveillance."

"But no matter what, he still accepts Uchiha and regards him as a member of the village after allowing that clan to bear such a responsibility."

"That was just a compromise for the stability of the village."

Danzo smiled coldly and expressed a different opinion: "Moreover, this is also the brilliance of Teacher Tobirama. It is inevitable that the Uchiha family that monopolizes the security department will be rejected by other families and civilians. We can already see this There are clues."

Sarutobi Hiruzen kept frowning as he heard this.

He has never relaxed his vigilance towards the Uchiha family, and has continued Mr. Tobirama's policy.But such things cannot be said on the table.

Danzo's statement seemed too extreme.

As the former Hokage's assistant and leader of the Roots, Danzo has always been considered his right-hand man.

Once Danzo's prejudice against Uchiha is spread, it will be very detrimental to the unity of the village.

So, he whispered a reminder.

"Danzo, don't over-interpret Tobirama-sensei's meaning."

At this time, Shimura Danzo still argued emotionally: "Over-interpretation? Hiruzen, can't you see..."

"Enough! Stop talking!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his tone impatiently and interrupted Danzo's speech.

This is the third time today that he has interrupted Danzo.

The unprecedented solemn look on Danzo's face made it rare for Danzo to stop arguing after seeing this scene.

Even he, under the authority of the Hokage, could only obey.

"At least for now, Uchiha is still a member of the village. Uchiha's voice needs to be taken seriously, and what you just said will never be allowed to be revealed to others, and it is not allowed to be mentioned again in front of me."

After narrating this sentence in a solemn tone that could not be criticized, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Danzo in silence, who was still a little unconvinced.

He clenched his fists, but Danzo could only lower his head reluctantly and gritted his teeth: "This kind of thing is confidential, and of course I will not spread it. I am just worried that you have misjudged the formality."

"Your auxiliary position has been revoked due to this incident on the front line. You no longer need to worry about such things."

Sarutobi Hiruzen reminded this point coldly, and then ordered:

"What you need to do now is to activate your roots to find clues about the two Uchiha people."

"..."

Danzo's face showed an ugly purple color, and he stood there in silence for a while.

"Did I speak too harshly?"

Seeing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen added with a somewhat softened tone: "Of course, as for the ANBU, I will also ask them to cooperate with your actions."

Taking a deep breath, Danzo slowly came back to his senses.

He felt very suffocated when he heard every word spoken by the Sandaime Hokage.

But his identity as Hokage made him unable to refute.

Obviously before, they were companions with equal status.

Just because of that decision, Sarutobi Hiruzen made that decision faster than him.

Sarutobi Hiruzen became the Hokage, and he could only stand in front of his former companion's desk, lowering his head and listening to the scolding.

"One day..."

Danzo's one eye contained hatred, and he secretly made a decision.

On the surface, he just said angrily before leaving.

"I know, but I can't guarantee that the person found in the end will be alive."

……

"Ugh……"

After Danzo left, the majestic aura of Sarutobi Hiruzen gradually disappeared.

He hunched his body, frowned and sighed, as if he had aged several years all of a sudden.

If he weren't wearing the Hokage's robe, no one who saw him would be able to tell that this wizened middle-aged and elderly man with a sad face was a high-ranking person.

A two-front war, tight military expenditures and supplies, the unexplained disappearance of the Uchiha people, and Danzo's extreme attitude.

These things all need to be coordinated and solved by him.

This was his responsibility as Hokage.

Silently lighting his pipe, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the purple smoke rising under the light, with a look of reminiscence in his eyes, and remained silent for a long time.

……

The days passed by.

After that night, Kurama Yan put on the plain glasses he had already prepared.

His original pupils were dark brown, almost black.

Coupled with the blocking of the lenses, people who are not particularly familiar with him can't tell any difference between his eyes if they look closely.

In fact, he is no longer short-sighted, and his eyes still contain unpredictable eye skills.

[Wei Yuanzhong] alone makes him invincible against any enemy.

As for [Budou Yuhun], it needs to be combined with [Ienagi] in order to exert its greatest effect.

So searching for [Ienagi] has become Kurama Yan's top priority these days.

Taking advantage of the characteristics of "Ashihara" being invisible and easily penetrating all things, these days, he visited various hidden book collection points in the Uchiha family's clan, hoping to find the secret scrolls recording "Ienagi" .

He was a little uncomfortable with this at first, and once he even triggered the barrier while flipping through the scrolls, attracting many Uchiha tribesmen.

He could only restore the storage room to its original state as soon as possible, and then use [Wei Yuanzhong] to escape from the scene.
