Although the other party did not say it explicitly, this was already a blatant threat!

Huang did not speak.

It's as if this game has nothing to do with them.

'snort. ’

Sarutobi Yu's gaze was filled with disdain. So what if he has some strength? He can still be easily manipulated by me.

"Since we're friends, I'll help you find a Chunin squad to escort you. I'll cover the missing bounty!"

The smile in Manager Tang's eyes deepened, and his voice softened.

Did you see that?

This is how adults do things!

Huang remained silent, but instead stopped and walked away.

But in that instant, he heard the fat uncle's conflicted yet firm decision:

"A businessman's word is his bond."

"Young man, meet me at the village entrance at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."

The sudden change in scenery left Sarutobi Yu stunned, a sinister smile frozen in the corner of his eye.

The market in Konoha and the 50,000 taels of silver were an enormous temptation for a small merchant group. He really didn't expect the other party to give it up!

Uchiha Ara's steps faltered slightly upon hearing these words.

"Well, I see."

he responded.

Chapter 36 The wilderness cannot be moved; however, the still water has changed.

Ara's violation of the regulations was naturally reported to the Hokage by Sarutobi Yu.

But that's all.

The incident seemed to have vanished without a trace, and not a single word was heard.

Just a few days ago, Hiruzen Sarutobi was questioned by the Uchiha clan, which made the situation between the two sides even more tense. How could he possibly hold a grudge against that clan over such a trivial matter?

Moreover, according to Itachi's report, due to Ara's sneak attack by Root, that kid's reputation within the police force has been completely reversed, and even Shisui's attitude towards him has changed significantly.

If we really start arguing about such trivial matters as taking on private assignments, who knows what kind of backlash those guys might throw at us.

It should be noted that the Uchiha clan members who are able to enter this area are at least Chunin level, and with the addition of the Sharingan, they are an immeasurable special operations team! And Uchiha Shisui is a powerful ninja who was able to subdue the Village of the Blood Mist.

"Hiruzen, are you going to hesitate any longer? That Uchiha has already left the village alone!"

"Now is the best time!"

Danzo Shimura bit down hard on the word "alone," his left eye filled with murderous intent.

There aren't many people who can make him lose face.

But that kid insisted on being scolded by the evil Uchiha for an entire afternoon!

Although Hiruzen Sarutobi was there to protect him, Ara had already made it onto his kill list.

'call.'

A ring of white smoke rose from the mouthpiece.

"Do you really think the Uchiha clan would let that kid go on a mission alone?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi asked in a calm and unhurried manner.

Compared to Danzo, who only knew how to assassinate, frame, and scapegoat, the Hokage thought more and had more concerns.

This old fox in front of me can easily push people from the Root into the Dark Side and make me take the blame, but can he really shirk all responsibility like the other guy?

Perhaps it might be useful against other clans, but such petty schemes and tricks are completely useless against the arrogant Uchiha clan; those guys will only cause trouble for them.

Especially given that the Eighth Hokage of Uchiha had already regarded Ara as his most precious disciple, and Shisui's recent behavior was becoming increasingly questionable.

Could this be a trap set by the Uchiha? They've secretly sent people to protect us, just waiting for us to take the bait.

Or perhaps, Shisui has truly changed his stance and sided with the family, watching their every move.

He had to consider every possibility.

Otherwise, one wrong step could lead to eternal regret.

After all, his old partner had been eyeing the Hokage position for far too long.

"So you're just going to stand by and watch the Uchiha clan run rampant in the village?"

"If they can ignore the rules and accept missions privately this time, next time, will they have to change the name of Konoha?!"

"You are no longer worthy of the title 'Hero of the Ninja' you once were, Hiruzen."

A dark cloud of gloom appeared in Shimura Danzo's eyes; he wanted to use what the other party valued most to force him to make a decision sooner.

Even without Huang's actions, he would have other excuses.

The air is stagnant.

A conflicted expression appeared on Hiruzen Sarutobi's face.

The Uchiha clan's hidden dangers are indeed getting more and more serious. Even if I assimilate Itachi, how can I guarantee that the kid won't rebel again?

He truly didn't expect that an 8-year-old boy could give the long-suppressed police force an outlet and revitalize it.

"The wilderness cannot be disturbed."

After a moment, he made his decision, and a long-absent dignity appeared on his aged face.

Danzo remained silent.

The gloom in his eyes deepened.

It seems that my suggestion was once again ignored by this old man.

Therefore, the task of maintaining Konoha's prosperity must once again be entrusted to Root!

"However, Shisui has changed."

Just as Shimura Danzo was about to leave and begin arranging the assassination, the white-haired old man sitting in the main seat tapped the table lightly, and his pipe was placed aside at some point.

"interesting."

"However, that guy doesn't really believe me."

Danzo instantly understood his 'old friend's' thoughts. The gloom in his left eye disappeared, replaced by a sinister smile.

It's unclear whether the laughter refers to the proposed solution or to the person being laughed at!

He only wanted to proceed steadily and nip a rising star in the bud, but the other party wanted to cut off the pillar of an entire clan!

This is indeed a better and more effective way to curb the Uchiha's momentum.

It seems that the old man has seriously considered his two suggestions from that day.

However, thinking back to what the other party said a few days ago?

'Shisui won't attack the village, and Itachi will definitely stand by the village. They are both ninjas who inherited the Will of Fire.'

'That's really interesting.'

Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't say much, but instead picked up a pen and paper and quickly began to write.

'I want to return the Uchiha clan to their original location and resolve the conflict.'

'But this is just a suggestion; don't let anyone else know yet.'

After hastily finishing writing, he folded the letter and stuffed it into the envelope.

"I will have the secret service deliver it. Be prepared."

The Third Hokage said calmly.

No one can fathom his true feelings right now.

"Yes, I know. Root will mobilize in full force."

Danzo concealed his smile. Regardless of other matters, they were, after all, on the issue of containing the Uchiha.

"After the arrangements are complete, I will send two secret agents to seal off the area."

Hiruzen Sarutobi, picking up his pipe, added slowly.

"It will not let you down."

After saying that, Shimura Danzo stood up, leaning on his cane. Uchiha Shisui was, after all, the strongest member of that clan, and he needed to make proper arrangements and plans.

Just as the one-eyed old man was about to step out of the Hokage's office, the Hokage's voice rang in his ears again: "Leave him with a whole corpse; he too once inherited the Will of Fire."

"Well, I can't guarantee that."

Danzo's tone carried a hint of sarcasm.

.......

"From now on, we have officially arrived inside the Land of Fields."

Looking out over the hotel district they were about to reach, Kujo Sho wiped the sweat from his brow and carefully began to introduce the area.

What kind of boy is this?!

Along the way, those vicious thugs from the black market and those blind bandits were dealt with in an instant.

Ok.

It's really solved!

Didn't you see he was still wiping the sword in his hand?

However, Kujo Sho also knew clearly that the other party was really just a child.

After dealing with those thugs from the shady shop, the paleness, panic, and nausea on his face were impossible to hide.

But why would he be so ruthless to an ordinary bandit?
