~7 min read 1,293 words

"If it's for the village, then you don't need to say it. The Uchiha clan is also the compatriots of the village." Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that Itachi must be hiding nearby, so he deliberately emphasized it and said impatiently: "Okay, I will issue the order tomorrow. You should stay at home and reflect on your mistakes in the future."

After that, Sarutobi Hiruzen left in a huff.

His grandson Sarutobi Konohamaru is less than four years old now. If he knows that his parents are dead, he really doesn't know what kind of blow he will suffer.

He must go back and comfort him.

But before that, he needs to see someone, Uchiha Itachi, and he needs to confirm with him whether Qianye is really dead.

Also, the analysis team is using the mind-reading technique to enter Shinnosuke's mind and peek into his memory.

He must know who the murderer is.

"Danzo, I saw it, and I will keep watching from now on. As long as you attack Sasuke, I will leak all the village information to the enemy country."

As soon as Sarutobi Hiruzen left, Uchiha Itachi used the Crow Clone Technique to create a clone to warn Danzo, just like in the original work.

Then, under the latter's gnashing eyes, he turned into a crow and disappeared in the Uchiha clan.

..................

At the same time, Qianye had already arrived at Yuhi Kurenai's residence.

As usual, after parting with Might Guy, Shiranui Genma and others, Yuhi Kurenai returned home and started her daily evening drink.

And the side dish was her favorite mustard octopus.

Suddenly, a wave of sleepiness came, and the wine glass fell quietly and fell into Qianye's hands.

And Yuhi Kurenai herself, lying on the sofa in a daze.

"What a worrying girl."

Qianye put down the wine glass, sighed helplessly, and cleaned up for her like he did in the Genin period.

Then, he carried her to the bed, covered her with a blanket, took out the pure gold ring he had prepared in advance, put it on with a thin rope, hung it around her neck, and stuffed it into her collar.

Finally, he used the Sharingan to give her a psychological hint.

This ring is very important to her. Don't leave it for a moment, let alone let outsiders know.

Only then did he leave with peace of mind.

He didn't tell Yuhi Kurenai the truth.

Even if he told Yuhi Kurenai, it would be harmful to her.

For him, the so-called fake death was just a smokescreen for the Konoha high-level officials.

If the Konoha high-level officials had a little brain, they would know that he did it through the dead bodies of the Sarutobi tribe.

At least it was done by someone wearing his Anbu clothes, wearing his Anbu mask, and holding his ninja sword.

But his body appeared in public again, and then disappeared out of thin air.

So they had no way to investigate.

This was enough to confuse people. By the time the third generation and others reacted, it was too late. He had already escaped.

This can also save a lot of trouble.

........

On the other side, Uchiha Itachi has followed Sarutobi Hiruzen to a huge building off the road in Konoha.

Sarutobi Hiruzen put his hands behind his back. Behind him, Uchiha Itachi, dressed as an Anbu ninja, kneeled on one knee.

"You came here specially, so you must have something to say. I have sent everyone away." Sarutobi Hiruzen said in a deep voice with his back to Uchiha Itachi.

Itachi lowered his head and expressed his gratitude, "Thank you for your trouble, Lord Hokage."

"First of all, I would like to thank you. In this way, Konoha avoided civil war and maintained the peace of the village. But I have always regretted that I have not found any other way so far..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen gave Uchiha Itachi a compliment.

If it were usual, Uchiha Itachi would be very moved.

Unfortunately, after experiencing the extermination of the clan, seeing the ugly face of Danzo, and knowing that this was the third generation of MoAfter the result of the recognition, he was no longer so naive.

At this moment, the only thing he cared about was Sasuke.

Of course, the third generation didn't know this.

When the atmosphere of self-awareness was almost up, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally spoke and got to the point: "What are your plans next?"

"This time, I used the power of a person who called himself the organizer of [Akatsuki]. I decided to stay with that person to prevent him from breaking his promise and attacking Konoha." Uchiha Itachi answered respectfully. He showed his value to Sarutobi Hiruzen as soon as he came.

"That means you are going to join the [Akatsuki] organization, right..." Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes flashed with cold light. He concluded that the death of his eldest son was inseparable from the Akatsuki organization.

"Yes, for this, I would like to ask you to give me a promise." Uchiha Itachi stated the purpose of this trip.

"Don't worry about your brother. I will keep my promise. Sasuke will stay the same, go to school like other children, and eventually grow up to be a ninja of Konoha." Sarutobi Hiruzen turned around and stared at Uchiha Itachi, "But before that, I have a few questions for you."

"I will tell you everything I know." Uchiha Itachi nodded.

"I guess you know that the bodies of Fujiwara Chiya, Fugaku, and several Uchiha clan members disappeared out of thin air. Do you know who did it? And is Fujiwara Chiya really dead?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

Uchiha Itachi thought for a moment and said, "The only person who could make seven bodies disappear in public was the one who worked with me to destroy the Uchiha clan. He controls a very strange space ninjutsu that can be freely transmitted and absorbed without leaving any trace."

"As for Qianye, he is indeed dead, killed by my Mangekyō Sharingan's pupil technique 'Tsukuyomi'. In addition, I made a finishing blow and confirmed that he was killed on the spot."

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt a little relieved and continued to ask, "Does that mean that my son also died in his hands?"

"If Lord Shinnosuke encounters that masked man, this possibility cannot be ruled out." Uchiha Itachi replied respectfully.

"Is that so..." Sarutobi Hiruzen clenched his fists, suppressed the anger in his heart, turned his back to Uchiha Itachi, and said: "From now on, Konoha will designate you as an S-level traitor and arrest you, regardless of life or death."

"I'll leave the Akatsuki organization to you. If there is a chance, I hope you can get rid of the masked man who may threaten the village. This is also the last task I give you."

"Yes." Uchiha Itachi responded respectfully, leaving this sentence and disappearing on the top floor of the Hokage Building.

As soon as Uchiha Itachi left, Sarutobi Hiruzen punched the wall beside him, his face was hideous, veins on his forehead bulged, and he cursed, "Damn Danzo... Damn masked man..."

Danzo and the masked man colluded secretly, how could Sarutobi Hiruzen not know?

It was just that the Uchiha coup was imminent, and he had no choice but to choose to turn a blind eye.

Now the threat of Uchiha has been lifted.

But his eldest son and his wife died, which he could not tolerate.

But he could do nothing about the masked man, and he could not really do anything to Danzo.

He had no choice but to swallow his anger.
