Konoha: This Uchiha is very stubborn

"I actually...really got out of trouble..."

In the office of the Hokage Building, the old Sandaime Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the raging Kyuubi in the distance and controlled his ups and downs.

With a serious look on his face, he began to arrange the defense arrangements in the village.

"Arrange manpower to prevent young people from being impulsive..."

"Calling the ANBU, the security forces, the roots, the guard forces, the sealing squad..."

"Open the shelter and let everyone in the village take refuge there..."

Although Minato Namikaze had been warned in advance, when Kyuubi finally escaped, feeling the opponent's violent chakra and power, the Sandaime still couldn't control his mood, even the voice of ordering his subordinates. Some were trembling slightly.

"yes…"

Following the orders one after another, the figures of ANBU wearing masks disappeared ghostly around him.

"Hiruzhan, Uchiha cannot be involved in this matter. Their Sharingan can control tailed beasts."

When the Sandaime Hokage was busy dealing with the Kyuubi, Shimura Danzo, who was leaning on a cane, said this in a sinister tone.

"Duanzo...you still have the nerve to show up here?"

As soon as he saw this guy, the Sandaime Hokage became angry.

Previously, the Yondaime Hokage proposed mobilizing more manpower to strengthen the defense of the village. This guy was the one who hindered it, saying that it was the Yondaime Hokage who was using this excuse to seize power, which made him hesitant. , resulting in the current lack of preparation.

Unexpectedly, the other party appeared in front of him again at this time.

"Hiruzhan, don't forget how that man manipulated the Nine-Tails to attack Konoha!"

Danzo Shimura ignored the Sandaime Hokage's angry look and continued: "Don't forget the teacher's instructions and warnings!"

Being on guard against Uchiha is just a reason. For Danzo, letting his roots go to the front line to deal with Kyuubi is something he cannot accept under any circumstances.

He only has so much capital, if all of it is lost to Kyuubi this time, what capital does he have to covet the throne of Hokage?

And this time is also an opportunity.

If something really happened to Namikaze Minato in this incident, wouldn't his chance come?

Even if the other party escaped safely, the Kyuubi Jinchuriki was his wife, and the other party ran rampant in the village. The other party could not get rid of this responsibility no matter what.

Afterwards, as long as I did it properly, I didn't believe that I couldn't drive this brat off the position of Hokage.

At that time, if you don't have a reliable force in your hands, how can you make your dream come true?

"Uchiha..."

When the other party mentioned 'that person', the Sandaime's mind seemed to recall a figure wearing a black robe and a stern face.

"Let Uchiha help those villagers and protect those civilians," after thinking for a moment, the Sandaime continued: "Since you proposed it, let you do it!"

After saying this, he stopped caring about Danzo, tightened his equipment and headed towards the gathering point of the ANBU and Jōnin.

He had more important things to do than dealing with Danzo and Uchiha.

…

"What did you say?"

"We Uchiha are not allowed to participate in intercepting the Kyuubi?"

Upon hearing the news, all the neatly dressed Uchiha seemed to have been betrayed, and almost everyone turned pale.

"We have received an order that the Uchiha clan must not participate in the Nine-Tails interception mission, otherwise..."

This member of the Roots did not say what the consequences would be if he did not obey the order, but from the knife-drawing movements of him and those behind him, the meaning was self-evident.

"Whose order did you receive?"

Just when Fugaku was considering whether to obey the order, a clear voice came into his ears.

"You know, the Fourth Hokage is in power now, and the other party has not shown up until now. Where did you get the order?"

"Does it have the Yondaime Hokage's approval?"

Following Toshiro's shout, the entire scene suddenly fell into silence, and almost everyone turned their attention to these Anbu who suddenly appeared.

Only Uchiha Chie, who was next to Toshiro, was extremely nervous at this time. She knew exactly what the situation was like with her boss.

If she turns out to be a gangster, she, as a subordinate, will not get any good results.

"The order comes from the top of the village!"

Faced with Uchiha's doubts, the leading Root members didn't care where their orders came from.

They are the roots, as long as they accept Danzo's orders and complete the mission.

"Follow the orders of the village's higher-ups!"

He looked at the tribesmen around him, and then at the number of Anbu in front of him. What would happen even if he and others did not obey Gao Chen's orders?

Even if they break through the blockade of these root members, how much combat power will they have left by then? In this case, it is better to obey Gao Chen's orders.

"team leader?"

This time it's not just Toshiro! Almost all the Uchiha clan members present expressed their dissatisfaction towards their clan leader.

"Follow orders!"

Toshiro didn't expect that he would even put the excuse at Fugaku's mouth. He was still so hesitant. He really deserves to be a man who can teach "one against seven".

"Well...although I'm a little embarrassed, but...I'm actually a shadow clone!"

"The situation with the main body seems to be a bit urgent, so I'll leave first!"

After saying this, the shadow clone turned into a small ball of smoke and disappeared.

"..."

At this moment, not to mention Uchiha, even the root ninjas opposite who had their swords drawn out of their sheaths didn't know what to say.

Everyone can do it more or less by using shadow clones to catch fish, but in such an emergency tonight, you actually used shadow clones to catch fish. This is a bit too much.

"Chie, what's going on?"

Although the leader left, didn't the secretary stay? Almost everyone's eyes turned to Toshiro's secretary.

"this…"

Being tricked by her boss, Uchiha Chie had no choice but to honestly explain in detail the fact that her boss used his shadow clone to fish, and that he ran out to 'shopping' in his own body.

But before these Uchiha tribesmen could digest the news they had just received, an orange-red barrier rose in the direction of the center of the village.

"It's...fire formation!"

Looking at the barrier in the distance, many experienced Uchiha people recognized this barrier that could be used to restrict giant psychic beasts.
