Danzo plans

Meanwhile, inside the root headquarters.

"What? My pawn was killed?" Shimura Danzō said with mix of both anger and surprise.

"Yes, and judging from the traces of the battle, he was killed instantly as just a few drops of blood were left there." Added the kneeling root while his back was soaked in sweat.

Danzo sat on the chair without speaking, as if he was thinking about something.

In Danzo's opinion, sneak attacks were never been an excuse for a ninja's defeat, so being able to sneak attack a Aburame is enough to show that Uchiha Kazuya is much better than the Aburame.

"Where is his body?" Danzo said suddenly.

"Lord Danzo, am afraid that we cannot find his body, from the battlefield we suspect that Kazuya stabbed the Aburame in the chest and then use a really strong fire style that melted his body."

"Fire style that melted bones?" Danzo knows that the Uchiha clan have some good fire style, and it may reach the point of instant melting. But those feats should be categorized in Kage-level strength, or even a Mangekyō Sharingan!

After being silent for a while, Danzo said, "Can't you find out why this Uchiha Kazuya was expelled from the Uchiha clan?"

Danzo has some doubts that this Uchiha Kazuya is a secret student left by Uchiha Fugaku.

"The single thing about Kazuya Uchiha that we could find was that the patriarch of the clan place him as a guard in Konoha cemetery." The root replied.

Danzo somewhat confirmed that Kazuya was Uchiha's revenge, and it was inconvenient for him to deal with him.

"Send a message to Orochimaru, tell him that there is another a Uchiha without much information left, and let him ask Itachi if he knows the origin of him."

"Yes!" Said the root prepared to leave in a instant.

"Wait." Danzo suddenly stopped root.

"Tell Sarutobi that I can't solve this Uchiha Kazuha at all, and I let him find a way by himself." Danzo said.

"Yes." The Root said that and left the place in an instant.

"Hmph, Sarutobi, I'll transfer this trouble to you. It's better if he can take revenge on Konoha and push you back from the position of Hokage, hahaha." Danzo smiled slyly in the dark room alone.

After a long time...

In a Unknown location.

"Master Orochimaru, the people from Root are here." Yakushi Kabuto pushed his glasses and sneered.

"What's the matter, Danzo has collected the Sharingan, shall we inspect him?" Orochimaru said with a dark smile.

"I don't think so." Kabuto pushed his reflective glasses again and said.

"Then invite them in."

It seems that Orochimaru would not back away on the other party if he was urging the surgery.

"Orochimaru, your organization is not that capable, a Uchiha still slipped through your fingers?"

It was the Root who came to deliver the message.

"Hiss~ Oh? A fish that slipped through the net? If you mean Uchiha Sasuke, I can't help it, Itachi is protecting him." Orochimaru stuck out his tongue and said.

"It's not Uchiha Sasuke, it's another person named Uchiha Kazuya, his information is here, you can take a look." The Root took out a scroll and threw it to Orochimaru.

Yakushi Kabuto suddenly appeared in front of Orochimaru, caught the scroll and opened it in front of Orochimaru.

After staring at the scroll for a while, Orochimaru said, "Oh? Interesting, can't you find out his specific information?"

"Master Danzo said, pass this information about Uchiha Kazuya to you so you could ask Itachi if he knows anything."

"Of course there's no problem with such a small thing. Let's see another time my guests." Orochimaru turned around and was about to leave, as if he had some new ideas.

"Hmph! Urging me to leave in such a hurry, Orochimaru, did you forget something? When will you go for Master Danzo's operation?" The Root disdainfully said.

Yakushi Kabuto frowned, but he wanted to show some colors to this person who has always disrespected his boss.

"Danzo can do this at any time he wants to do. Besides, Kabuto is usually in Konoha. Kabuto is my right-hand man, and he is also capable of performing the surgery." Orochimaru said with a smile.

"Him?" The Root looked at the young Yakushi Kabuto, obviously distrustful, "Whatever you say, I'm just here to repeat Master Danzo's order." After speaking, he left in a blink of an eye.

Silent for a while, after confirming that the other party was gone.

"Master Orochimaru, why don't you let me teach him a lesson, we also need some new human body for materials." Yakushi Kabuto pushed his glasses and said.

"Danzo is still useful to us. There is no need to fight against each other. And it's just a small person. What's the point?"

Orochimaru is a person who is willing to be patient in order not to mess up the big plan.

"Yes, Lord Orochimaru."

"But this Uchiha Kazuya is very interesting." Orochimaru said suddenly,

"What do you mean Orochimaru-sama?."

"From the information given by Danzo, this Uchiha Kazuya seems to be just a grave keeper. His strength is unknown, but shouldn't be too bad. Otherwise, Danzo, who wanted to use First Generation cells to adapt to Sharingan, would have done it a long time ago. Now that you pass the information on to me, I'm afraid you doomed him!"

"Oh? Then what shall we do, Master Orochimaru."

"Us? Hmm~ You go back and find out information about this person. I'll send a letter to the people from the Akatsuki to see what Itachi thinks, and then wait and see."

Orochimaru also has a great desire for the Mangekyo Sharingan after being nearly killed by Itachi once, so he also has his own little calculation for Kazuha.

...

In Hokage's office.

"Kakashi, how do you think we should handle this person?" Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was sitting in Hokage's seat, asked Kakashi.

"From Danzo's news, we can know that Kazuya's strength is probably extraordinary. If we really want to take him down, we should bring great forces." Kakashi said something superfluous.

"Yeah, I was going to ask Danzo to help me to solve this problem, but he can't solve it at all." Sarutobi said helplessly.

"Then it's better to take him to our side. Judging from the current information, this Uchiha Kazuya does not have the same desire as the other Uchiha'." Kakashi suggested.

"Well, being tasked to guard Konoha cemetery for three years, and not even showing his Uchiha status outside, is something different, but if you think about it this way, could this Uchiha Kazuya be a secret weapon?" Sarutobi worried.

"Now that the Uchiha clan has been exterminated, even Kazuya should lost his direction." Kakashi said his point of view.

"Well, then you should go and find out what he has to say. If we can recruit him in Anbu, it will be easier for us to control this unstable factor." After thinking about it, Sarutobi made a decision.

"Yes." Although Kakashi is not serious on weekdays, he is still very serious when accepting tasks and facing the Hokage.
