Uchiha Itachi and two Root ninjas left Konoha.

Not long after, Sarutobi Hiruzen came to the door.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was filled with anger, even with a hint of murderous intent, looking at Danzo: "Danzo, you didn't listen to a word of my warning. Do you really think I won't touch you?"

After learning that Uchiha Itachi was taken to the Root base by Danzo's Root Ninjas, and immediately left Konoha with two Root Ninjas, Sarutobi Hiruzen was almost furious.

I've told Danzo many times not to mess around, but now he hasn't learned his lesson and has come to Uchiha Itachi alone again.

Danzo calmly replied, "Huruzen, don't worry. I really didn't do anything rash this time. I wanted to go find you in person and explain it to you. Now that you're back, just listen to my explanation."

Sarutobi Hiruzen suppressed his anger and said, "Then I'll let you explain it for now!"

Danzo explained to Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Uchiha Shisui escaped after that day and committed suicide, but his body has not been found so far, so Uchiha Shisui's left eye is now lost.

In other words, there is another Mangekyō Sharingan that can use Kotoamatsukami, but no one knows where it is now. We don't know whether it disappeared with Uchiha Shisui into the river under the cliff of Minamiga River, or somewhere else.

Uchiha Itachi was a good friend of Uchiha Shisui. After escaping that day, the person he was most likely to have met was Uchiha Itachi, so it is very likely that Uchiha Itachi knew where the Mangekyō Sharingan was, or in other words, it was in Uchiha Itachi's hands.

Therefore, I want to send two Root ninjas to guard Uchiha Itachi, and find out whether Uchiha Itachi knows the whereabouts of Uchiha Shisui's other Mangekyō Sharingan.

Hiruzen, you also know how dangerous Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan is. If it falls into the hands of the wrong people, it will be a huge threat to our Konoha."

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and questioned: "If that's the case, then why didn't you tell me in advance? Don't think I don't know that you are still coveting Shisui's other Mangekyō Sharingan!"

Facing Sarutobi Hiruzen's questioning, Danzo said calmly: "If I wanted to hide it from you, I wouldn't let anyone know that the Root Ninja brought Uchiha Itachi to my base, nor would I let anyone know that Uchiha Itachi and two Root Ninjas went out on a mission.

They are now just going to carry out an assassination mission, which is a mission within the dark side.

I said, I am not doing anything reckless now. I am actually considering the interests of Konoha. Maybe Uchiha Shisui really inherited the will of fire like Kagami, but it does not mean that Uchiha Itachi is the same. His father is Uchiha Fugaku. How can you be sure, Hiruzen, that he has no ulterior motives?

If you want to disband my roots because of this, then it’s up to you. Since you don’t trust me, then you can do things that can only be done in the dark.”

Sarutobi Hiruzen said gloomily after a while of silence: "Once there is news about Shisui's other Mangekyō Sharingan, report it to me immediately! From now on, any actions you take must be reported to me in advance and I will decide. You are not allowed to act on your own! Also, I will send some Anbu ninjas to the Root."

Danzo frowned instantly. Anbu ninjas were stationed in the Root? Wasn't this telling him that Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to monitor him?

After hearing what Danzo said, Sarutobi Hiruzen was also worried that Uchiha Shisui's other Mangekyō Sharingan might have fallen into someone else's hands.

After Uchiha Shisui committed suicide, the Uchiha ninjas searched for his body in the Minamiga River. If Uchiha Shisui's body was found by the Uchiha clan, and the Uchiha clan obtained the Mangekyō Sharingan and knew the abilities of Kotoamatsukami, then things would be troublesome.

Danzo was right. If there was anyone most likely to know where Uchiha Shisui's body and the Mangekyō Sharingan were, it would be Uchiha Itachi.

What's more, Sarutobi Hiruzen really still needs Danzo and Danzo's Root to help him do some things that the Hokage cannot do.

However, Danzo always acted first and reported later, which gave Sarutobi Hiruzen a headache, so he decided to send some Anbu ninjas into the Root to monitor the movements of the Root ninjas and Danzo.

Danzo knew that Sarutobi Hiruzen would not be able to discuss this matter, and he was too lazy to argue with Sarutobi Hiruzen, so he simply agreed: "Whatever you want."

...

The entire Konoha seems to be peaceful now, but in fact there are undercurrents.

At this time, Chiba was talking to Yahiko using the ring.

Qianyu asked: "How are you guys doing over there now?"

Yahiko replied to Chiba: "What else can I do? I'm just like that. I'm helping Orochimaru build the Sound Village. What about you? When will you leave Konoha?"

Qianyu smiled and said, "It will be no more than a year at most, no more than two years. A big event will happen in Konoha soon. After this event is over, I will leave Konoha and join you."

Yahiko exhaled and said, "You are finally leaving Konoha. Kushina and your child will leave with you, right?"

Qianyu confirmed: "Yes, that's right. How can I let them stay in Konoha if I'm leaving?"

Yahiko asked curiously: "So, do you need us to come over then? It won't be convenient for you if we bring Kushina and Aonagi with us."

Qianyu didn't decide immediately: "We'll see what happens when the time comes."

"Okay, if you need us to come over when the time comes, just tell us. That's it for now. I have to go to work. It's really a shame that I haven't had a few days off since I came to the Land of Rice Fields." Yahiko complained to Chiha.

"After all, Otogakure Village is also the base of our organization. It will be easy once it is built. So let's leave it like this for now."

Qianyu cut off the communication and pinched his chin in thought.

Now that Uchiha Itachi and Danzo are in cahoots, there is a high probability that Danzo will soon persuade Uchiha Itachi to massacre the Uchiha clan.

And Uchiha Obito should also come to Konoha again to collect the Sharingan.

Chiba murmured, "So, what will be your choice this time, the clan, Konoha... or have you found other options, Uchiha Itachi."

...

Another ten days passed.

Uchiha Itachi and two Root ninjas have assassinated the target of the mission, returned to Konoha, and came to the Root base to report the progress of the mission to Danzo.

"Thank you. By the way, while you were away, the Uchiha region monitors reported that the police force had beefed up their armaments. What does that mean?"

Danzo had been in the shadows, so Uchiha Itachi couldn't see Danzo's expression clearly, and asked Uchiha Itachi meaningfully.
