"All we can do now is report it to the village and wait for their decision. However, there's no avoiding a reprimand and an apology. It's even possible that the Sharingan just retrieved will be required to be returned.

The matters on the Daimyo's are already troubling enough, and Tsunade doesn't have the energy to deal with these issues. Plus, Kazuki's attitude is very sincere—he insists that everything he did was for the clan, merely to retrieve something that rightfully belongs to them.

We tried reasoning first, but since Kakashi refused to return it, we had no choice but to resort to force. Moreover, we only retrieved the Sharingan without endangering Kakashi's life.

If Kakashi had been seriously injured or his life threatened, this matter couldn't have been handled quietly.

Kazuki is willing to take responsibility, leaving Tsunade with no choice. Many of the things she wanted to scold him about were stuck in her throat. In the end, she could only glare at him fiercely before leaving.

She needed to check on Kakashi's condition and ask about his thoughts on the matter.

The news of the Uchiha attack on Kakashi and the retrieval of the Sharingan spread among the Konoha ninja, but fortunately, it didn't go beyond that circle. Tsunade hoped to avoid this situation, and the Konoha ninjas weren't inclined to spread the news either.

It's not a good thing for such incidents to be known outside.

"How's Kakashi doing?"

"He's been treated and is currently stable, just missing an eye with no other injuries. His mental state is a bit unstable, probably a side effect of genjutsu, which is very powerful."

Shizune thoroughly examined Kakashi and found that, apart from the rough removal of the Sharingan and the lingering effects of a genjutsu, everything else was fine. This confirmed Kazuki's claim that he was only after the Sharingan and not Kakashi's life.

"I understand," Tsunade said with a serious nod before entering the room.

Inside, Kakashi sat leaning back in a chair, his left eye wrapped in bandages, looking somewhat sickly.

"Sit down."

Kakashi hesitated for a moment, then tried to stand and salute, but Tsunade pushed him back into the chair. "How are you feeling?"

"Thank you for your concern, Lady Tsunade. I'm fine, just a bit dazed," Kakashi replied honestly.

Shizune brought over a chair, and Tsunade sat down, asking, "Tell me everything that happened, so I can report it to the old man. This needs to be handled by him. Also, tell me your thoughts."

Kakashi, still a bit disoriented, thought for a while before speaking.

"I was resting outside the city when Shisui approached me, asking me to return Obito's Sharingan to the Uchiha, as it rightfully belongs to them. I refused, and then we fought. During the fight, Kazuki's men joined in, and I ended up caught in the genjutsu. That's how they took the Sharingan."

Kakashi recounted the events in detail, confirming that Kazuki was after the Sharingan and not his life.

"So, they were only after the Sharingan and had no intention of harming you?" Tsunade pondered.

Kakashi was silent for a moment before nodding. Although there was a fight, he hadn't sensed any killing intent from Shisui or the others, leading him to conclude that neither Kazuki nor Shisui intended to kill him—they were solely focused on retrieving the Sharingan.

"That damn brat," Tsunade muttered, frustrated. "So, what's your stance? Do you want the Sharingan back and an apology from Kazuki?"

"I don't need an apology. Kazuki did everything for the Uchiha. I just want Obito's eye back. It was his last gift to me," Kakashi said, clenching his fists. It was the last thing Obito had given him, and he couldn't lose it. As for an apology, he didn't need it, nor was it necessary. If someone had taken a Hatake family relic, he would also try to retrieve it, as it belonged to his family. Even though the Hatake family had fallen, he understood this sentiment.

Tsunade nodded, satisfied. Kakashi didn't want to escalate the situation, which aligned with her wishes. "I'll discuss it with Kazuki and hope he returns it. But be prepared; even though it was Obito's last gift to you, the Sharingan ultimately belongs to the Uchiha."

"Every large clan has its peculiar rules, and as a Hatake, you should understand that."

"Rest well; others will take over the duty of protecting the Daimyo."

After comforting Kakashi, Tsunade decisively left. She still had many issues to handle, and she didn't want to deal with this matter until the village responded.

Around the same time, the news from the Daimyo's estate also reached Konoha, landing in the hands of the Third Hokage and Fugaku.

The message from the Daimyo was specially sent back through family channels using a ninja hawk.

Fugaku, sitting in his office, opened the encrypted scroll with a bit of curiosity.

"Cough, cough!!"

As soon as he read the contents, Fugaku stood up in shock, coughing repeatedly as if startled by what he saw.

"What the hell is he doing?!"

Fugaku couldn't believe it. Kazuki had only just gone to the Daimyo, and the next day, he caused a major incident.

The Third Hokage had discussed Obito's Sharingan with Fugaku before, and for the clan's sake, Fugaku reluctantly agreed, essentially allowing the eye to become Kakashi's possession.

But now, Kazuki, upon arriving at the Daimyo, had teamed up with Shisui to attack Kakashi and successfully retrieved the Sharingan.

This was a major problem!

Fugaku was sure that when the Third Hokage received this news, he would be furious and likely blame Fugaku, as he would be seen as the one who supported such actions as the Uchiha clan leader.

But the truth was, Fugaku knew nothing about it! This was all orchestrated by Kazuki.

Fugaku was also shocked that Shisui had followed Kazuki's orders and participated in attacking a fellow village ninja, something that would have been a serious boundary for Shisui in the past. Yet now, Shisui had crossed that line.

What had Kazuki said to Shisui? Fugaku was certain that Kazuki must have met with Shisui, had a serious conversation, and somehow convinced him. Otherwise, Shisui would never have done such a thing.

Just yesterday, the Daimyo's estate had sent good news, leaving the Third Hokage in a good mood.
