Konoha: We, the Uchiha, are ready to give up!

So, hey!

Dingza and Haiyi immediately shut up.

Even Akimichi Torifu, after a long silence, finally spoke up helplessly.

"ok, I get it."

“I agree with Shikaku’s decision. Let each of us give half of our clan members and have Koji take them directly to the Uchiha clan.”

"This matter must be done immediately; we don't have much time left."

"At the latest, the ninjas on the Iwagakure front should be returning to the village by the morning of the day after tomorrow!"

"We're all on the same side, there's no need for too much formality."

"Go back and prepare. This matter must be decided by tomorrow afternoon at the latest."

"Then let the leaders of each tribe go and report to Koji."

"Lu Jiu, farewell!"

Autumn Road takes the wind without hesitation.

He's a man of action!

Since Nara Shikaku's words make sense, and Nara Koji has agreed.

The intelligent members of the entire Nara clan felt that the time had come, and from the incident involving Minato Namikaze, he also vaguely sensed that something was amiss.

So, let's do it.

After finishing speaking.

Without any hesitation, he rushed towards the Akimichi clan with Akimichi Choza.

After all, just as he said.

With less than two days to prepare everything, it was a very urgent matter.

The mountain is about the same.

After giving Lu Jiu a brief explanation, he simply left.

Obviously.

He also needed to hurry back to his clan in the mountains to begin urgently handling these matters.

Nara Shikaku did not stop him.

After a brief farewell to the group, I saw them off and then lazily returned to the tea room to leisurely sip my tea.

Yes.

After working so hard for so long, he really deserves a good rest.

Just then, Yoshino walked in.

"Lu Jiu, I heard everything."

"Yamano and Akimichi have already started preparations, shouldn't our Nara clan also make preparations?"

She was very confused.

She had no intention of objecting to her husband's decision.

As a member of the Nara clan.

Perhaps she wasn't as smart as her husband, but after she explained things, she could still understand them easily.

That's why she couldn't understand it.

Nara Shikaku paused for a moment.

But he couldn't help shaking his head, then chuckled and said.

"Madam, you've forgotten."

"We still have Koji in Nara, why should I be in such a hurry?"

"I've been busy for so long since I became the clan leader, shouldn't I take a good rest?"

"On the contrary, Koji is different."

“He’s been slacking off for so long, it’s time to give him a good start.”

"I'm not getting involved in this matter."

Yes.

Thinking about how he's been busy like a dog every day since he became the clan leader.

In contrast, Koji Nara has been slacking off for so long.

It's time for him to keep busy for a while.

Yoshino Nara remained silent for a moment.

No wonder.

So it turns out my husband is planning to slack off!

Thinking about this, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.

It's just a pity.

Nara Shikaku's idea was good, but fate seemed to be playing a cruel joke on him.

Before he could even rest until lunchtime, he received a notification from the Dark Division.

Tell him to go to the Hokage's office immediately!

Nara Shikaku: "..."

He was speechless.

My mind is filled with a million unspoken thoughts, yet I don't know whether I should say them or not.

This is ridiculous!

I just wanted to steal a moment of leisure from my busy schedule, but God didn't give me that chance at all.

What a terrible thing!

only.

Although he felt extremely helpless, he still let out a sigh.

Finally, he got up with a frustrated look on his face, and then, amidst Yoshino's mocking laughter, reluctantly headed towards the Hokage Building.

Of course, he's not stupid.

He might feel stifled at home, but once he actually leaves Nara, he becomes serious and solemn.

Upon arriving at the Hokage's office, he bowed respectfully.

"Greetings, Hokage-sama!"

Chapter 235 Hokage Summoning, Shikaku is a Loyal Retainer!

Nara Shikaku is very composed.

This is the fake face he's best at putting on in front of outsiders.

After all, as a strategist, he also needs to maintain his image.

only.

His gaze shifted, but he couldn't help looking at Hiruzen Sarutobi.

His face was sallow, his eyes were gloomy, and he exuded a tremendous aura of violence.

It's clear that this person is genuinely angry.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was smoking, couldn't help but cough and let out a hoarse sound when he saw Shikaku Nara in front of him.

"Oh, Shikaku is here."

"I've run into a little trouble and need your help, Shikaku."

"Last night, the captain of the Anbu, Shinnosuke, was confirmed dead."

"It's just that we can't find the real culprit in a short time, but this case must be closed as soon as possible."

"Do you think the Uchiha clan could have done this?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi spoke softly.

Yes.

After a night of deep thought, although he hated Danzo and the other two to the core.
