Chapter 66: Why are you messing with her?

Then we'll take our leave, goodbye.

The moonlight was hazy; after leaving the barbecue restaurant and bidding farewell to everyone, Yuzhi and Hikari also headed toward the Uchiha Clan.

This gathering was still relatively smooth and satisfactory, especially for Yuzhi.

He unexpectedly got both Orochimaru's information and Danzo's information from Asuma's mouth.

This finally gave Yuzhi, who had been waiting quietly, a chance to act!

After all, Uzhibo ChaNa and Uchiha Fugaku haven't been getting along pleasantly lately.

After everyone returned to Leaf Village, Uzhibo ChaNa, as the great elder, decisively convened the clan meeting.

This clan meeting, even before Yuzhi could go visit him again, already put Uchiha Fugaku in a very passive situation.

Fortunately, he was still the clan leader, and with the support of many doves, he also forcibly interrupted this clan meeting.

As for when the next negotiation will start and how it will be conducted, that's not something Yuzhi needs to worry about.

Because who knows, next time they might all be panicking!

Are you thinking about something not so good?

Just then, Hikari gave Yuzhi a strange look from the side.

Huh?

Yuzhi snapped back to attention and asked in surprise.

Why do you say that?

I don't know, but I just feel that whatever you're thinking about right now is probably nothing good.

Hikari shook her head and honestly spoke her thoughts.

It seems your misunderstanding of me is quite deep, considering we're still friends.

Yuzhi sighed helplessly; his outward persona has always been strong and never collapsed.

Haven't you seen that he's surrounded by real brothers and superficial brothers everywhere? How did he end up like this with Hikari?

It's precisely because we're friends that I can claim to understand you.

Hikari glanced at Yuzhi, murmuring to herself, 'half a friend'.

Alright, you really do understand me quite well.

Yuzhi thought for a moment, then decided not to hide it, lowering his voice to whisper in Hikari's ear.

Although not everything, I might have to take action against the clan.

After waiting so long, I finally heard some movement from Orochimaru; naturally, Yuzhi didn't want to miss it!

Yuzhi has always known that if he wants to do something without attracting attention, he must consider many factors.

For example, if some important figure dies within the Uchiha Clan, then internal conflict is needed to take the blame.

Externally, it's best to also have corresponding movements to divert everyone's attention.

At the same time, he also hopes that those who originally paid attention to the Uchiha will no longer overly focus on these matters now.

The Third Hokage stepping down to choose the Fourth Hokage is a big deal, but that's not enough; we need even more explosive news.

Danzo holds the Root; after the war ends, his gaze might turn this way, which is also not what Yuzhi wanted.

Danzo harbored ulterior motives; the outbreak of the Orochimaru incident led him, to avoid the spotlight and to show off his ability, to win over allies and leave Leaf Village.

This is the best time for Yuzhi to act right now!

Yuzhi has long suspected that the news of Orochimaru's human experiments was likely spread by Danzo.

The Third Hokage couldn't have spread this, since Orochimaru is his disciple and also a Hokage candidate.

He doesn't even have time to cover it up; how could he let such news spread unchecked?

But Danzo is different; he still has an intact Root in his hands, and although he hasn't yet experienced assassinating the Third Hokage, he has instead been turned against and gained leverage.

At this point, he might act even more recklessly; for the sake of becoming Hokage, he'd probably dare to do anything.

Looking at it this way, I still have to thank Danzo.

With the news of Orochimaru's human experiments spreading, even if something truly happened within the Uchiha, probably no one would pay much extra attention.

Furthermore, even if we give it a lot of leeway, if Yuzhi's doing this doesn't intensify the conflict but instead makes everyone want to thoroughly investigate the perpetrator.

Then, isn't Orochimaru just a natural scapegoat?

Finally, are we going to act?

Hearing Yuzhi's words, Hikari also flashed a murderous look, but she quickly shook her head.

Too bad, it's not everything.

It's not the right time yet; you have to eat bite by bite and do things step by step to avoid problems.

Yuzhi smiled, then reminded him.

Also, to avoid exposing us, don't forget to try blending into the family.

I haven't forgotten, I understand.

Hikari glanced at Yuzhi, knowing she hadn't done well on this; after all, what's good about integrating into a family doomed to burn to ashes?

But since Yuzhi has repeatedly brought it up, she thinks she should just do it to save him from nagging all day.

The two chatted as they walked, but when they reached a forest outside the Uchiha Clan's territory, they both suddenly stopped.

Swish, swish, swish

In an instant, countless kunai shot rapidly at them!

Seeing this, the two immediately leapt up to dodge the kunai, and at that moment four black-clad ninjas had already surrounded them.

Who are you?

Yuzhi looked utterly bewildered, for he couldn't immediately think of who would attack him.

Could it be Danzo?

No way, this guy already went out, right? Could it be that the person who went out isn't Danzo?

Moreover, even if Danzo were even more crazy, with the whole Leaf Village praising him now, this guy shouldn't be stupid enough to launch an attack outright.

Especially given how close this place is to the Uchiha Clan, once reinforcements arrive, they won't be able to explain things clearly.

"Attack!"

Uzhibo BaDai and the others obviously had no intention of wasting words with Yuzhi; they've been waiting here for a long time, just for this moment's action.

To that end, tonight Uzhibo BaDai even had the nearby patrol personnel transferred away, all for the sake of properly 'testing' this little brat Yuzhi!

Of course, he is also very measured in his heart.

Since this little brat is valued by Elder Chan Na, he naturally wouldn't deal a lethal blow.

At most, it's just to let this little brat learn a lesson, to learn to respect elders; he can easily be harsh.

Uzhibo BaDai flashed forward to stand before Yuzhi, holding a long sword and coldly staring at Yuzhi before him.

The other three directly went to surround Hikari, and seeing this, Yuzhi's eyes twitched.

"Are you sure about what you're doing?"

Yuzhi furrowed his brows, his eyes instantly turning a shade of scarlet, and then he asked with a hint of amusement.

"We naturally know what we're doing; the question is whether you know how to do it."

Uzhibo BaDai spoke in a low, hoarse voice, and interestingly, his tone was also full of amusement.

"No, you've gotten one thing wrong."

Yuzhi let out a slight sigh, casually pulling out a kunai, the scarlet Three Tomoe gazing at this guy before him.

"Is it that you've decided how to save your subordinates?"

"Save your own subordinates?"

Uzhibo BaDai froze for a moment upon hearing this, then involuntarily revealed a cold smile beneath his mask.

He even doubted whether this little brat Yuzhi had gone mad; otherwise, how could he ask such a foolish question?

"Ah!"

However, the next moment, a tragic scream shattered the night's silence, and this sound instantly caused Uzhibo BaDai's expression to shift slightly.

This definitely isn't the voice of Uchiha Ying; it's his subordinate's voice!

"You say, what did you provoke her for?"

Almost at the same time, Yuzhi's voice suddenly sounded in his ear, and he immediately turned his head.

All that could be seen was Yuzhi already wielding a kunai, appearing beside him like a ghost.

That kunai, flashing with a cold light, tore through the air and lunged straight at him!

PS: Starting to slowly take action against the clan.

Newbies beg for follows; now getting follows will decide everything about a book, and raising a book is easy to kill it.

Thanks, everyone, great ones, Onz.
