Kazuki patted his shoulder and said earnestly:

"Shisui, tomorrow I will lead everyone back to the village with Tsunade-hime. I hope you can stay behind to continue protecting the Daimyo. Some things must remain hidden, and if they are exposed, the consequences could be severe. I'm afraid Danzo might take desperate measures."

Regardless of who leaked the information, it always seems to involve the Daimyo. If pushed into a corner, there's no telling what Danzo might do to the Daimyo. As for whether Danzo would be brought down, Kazuki could only say: Ha!

There's no chance of that.

Just look at Orochimaru. If the Third Hokage hadn't been so soft-hearted, even with Orochimaru's exceptional escape skills, it wouldn't have been so easy for him to slip out of Konoha. Not to mention, the Third Hokage sees Danzo as even more important than Orochimaru.

If things get out of hand, not only will he not punish Danzo, but he might even help him escape.

"The intelligence from Root and the village was leaked, and the information was first spread from the Daimyo. This is very disadvantageous for him."

The numerous charges are chilling. Shisui couldn't believe that the person he once trusted so much had such a dark side.

"Oh, I also need to go back and investigate the clan's genealogical records. I need to see if anyone in the clan went missing mysteriously or lost their Sharingan around the time the Third Shinobi War ended. I suspect these things were also done by Danzo and Orochimaru."

Regardless of the results, blaming you first is always right. Orochimaru and Danzo have been targeting the Uchiha clan for a long time, so it's not unfair for them to take the blame. Moreover, Danzo has been secretly collecting Sharingan all along.

"I understand. I'll stay behind and protect the Daimyo from the shadows."

After a long while, Shisui finally managed to digest the shocking news and solemnly promised Kazuki that he would ensure the Daimyo's safety.

"As long as you have the will, that's good. There are many issues with the clan and the village, so I'll rely on you to take care of things at the Daimyo's residence."

"And be very careful with Danzo. If you end up fighting him, be wary—this old guy isn't simple, especially his bandaged eye and arm."

In the original story, Shisui lost one of his eyes to Danzo because he underestimated him, thinking he had successfully controlled Danzo with genjutsu. However, Danzo used Izanagi to catch Shisui off guard and took one of his Sharingan.

Until the situation in the village stabilizes, Kazuki doesn't want Shisui to return. It's better to keep him at the Daimyo's residence. Plus, it gives them a chance to use Danzo's crimes as an excuse to keep Shisui there.

After Shisui left, Kazuki was about to pack up his things. During his time at the Daimyo's residence, without any patrols or missions, he had mostly been resting.

Whenever he had free time, Kazuki would go out for a walk. Compared to Konoha, the Daimyo's residence is more prosperous. Here, as long as you wave money around, you can buy many things that are hard to find in Konoha.

Kazuki bought some small gifts for Izumi and her mother, Hazuki. He had promised to visit them for a long time, and delaying it any further would be rude. Kazuki planned to visit Izumi's house once he returned to the village.

"Kakashi, I'll return to the village as soon as possible. I need you to stay here at the Daimyo's residence and keep an eye on that rascal Asuma. Don't let him cause any more trouble."

Tsunade still had to give instructions, especially regarding Asuma. It wasn't that Tsunade cared deeply for Asuma, but she was worried that after she left, Asuma might cause some trouble. Previously, someone would always clean up after him, but now that the Third Hokage had his hands full, who would help him?

Therefore, Tsunade could only hope that Kakashi would keep an eye on Asuma.

The Daimyo now saw the Third Hokage and Danzo as thorns in his side, and even Asuma was viewed unfavorably. If Asuma caused any trouble at the Daimyo's residence, he'd be in big trouble.

"Don't worry, Tsunade-hime. I'll keep an eye on Asuma and won't give him any chance to act out."

Having been classmates before, even though they graduated early, Kakashi knew what kind of person Asuma was. Without his status, Asuma would have been seen as nothing more than a small-time thug.

"Good. I'll leave Asuma to you. I trust you."

Tsunade sighed:

"Something big is going to happen in the village, and it will have a major impact. I don't even know what the situation will be like tomorrow."

"I'll leave the Daimyo in your hands."

Although Kakashi had closed off his heart, he was efficient and obedient. Entrusting Asuma to him gave Tsunade some peace of mind.

"The village..."

Kakashi hesitated for a moment, but Tsunade interrupted him before he could finish.

"You don't need to think about it or worry about it. I'll handle it.

Believe in the village. In a few days, even you, at the Daimyo's residence, will hear the news."

Waving her hand to cut off Kakashi, Tsunade furrowed her brow deeply.

'Old man, you've really given me a difficult problem.'

Massaging her throbbing temples, Tsunade urged herself not to dwell on it and decided to deal with everything once she returned to the village.

"By the way, how's your eye recovering?"

"...."

'My eye?'

Because Shizune had warned him not to use the Sharingan right after the transplant, Kakashi had been dutifully resting and hadn't tried using it.

"It should be fine, but the chakra flow seems a bit blocked, probably due to the injury and the eye transplant."

Upon hearing this, Tsunade thought for a moment and said:

"After some time, it should adapt. After all, this eye doesn't belong to you, and you don't have Uchiha blood. Issues like chakra blockage, the inability to deactivate the Sharingan, and continuous chakra and mental energy depletion will be noticeable."

"I understand. Thank you for your concern, Tsunade-hime."

Recently, Kakashi had felt that something was off with his eye, but he couldn't pinpoint what it was. After hearing Tsunade's words, he felt completely reassured.

If one day, Obito comes looking for Kakashi and finds out his eye has been swapped, he might cough up blood in anger.

"Get some good rest."

Tsunade patted Kakashi's shoulder in encouragement and left decisively.

There were still many things waiting for her attention, and she didn't have much time to comfort Kakashi.

Moreover, Kakashi's heart was too closed off; if nothing happened, he wouldn't say a word for half a day. Trying to have a heart-to-heart talk with him was difficult because she didn't even know what to talk about.

"It will recover, right?"

After Tsunade left, Kakashi covered the eye hidden beneath his forehead protector and muttered to himself.

Having settled things with Kakashi, Tsunade went to check on Asuma, who was lounging in the sun with bandages wrapped around his head and his legs crossed. Just seeing him made the veins on Tsunade's forehead pop out.

She had an inexplicable urge to rush into the courtyard and give Asuma a good beating.
