Chapter 70: The Wrath of Hiruzen (Edited)

Konoha.

In the Hokage's Office, Hiruzen was reading some documents.

"Hokage-sama... a problem has occurred with Uchiha Tsuki."

An Anbu appeared in front of Hiruzen.

Hiruzen raised his head, frowned slightly, and said, "What happened?"

The Anbu reported, "Uchiha Tsuki went on a mission and left the village heading south... but suddenly we got information that he was spotted heading north."

"Hmm!?", Hiruzen immediately pondered.

Obviously, Tsuki had to go north for some reason.

What's the problem with that?

North...North!!!!

Hiruzen finally understood.

The mission Naito was on was in the north!

"Damn that Uchiha Clan! They tricked us!!!", Hiruzen's eyes showed a lot of anger.

It was well known now that the Uchiha Clan and Naito had conflicts.

When he gave Naito permission to go on the mission with Duy, he should have known that the Uchiha Clan would do something like this.

And then, Hiruzen learned that four Uchiha Clan Chuunins had formed a squad that was about to head north on another mission.

So Hiruzen sent the Anbu directly to follow the squad formed by four Uchiha Clan ninja, so that they could suppress any situation.

He thought nothing would happen.

But to his surprise, the Uchiha Clan tricked them.

The squad of four Uchiha Clan ninja was the bait, their target was not Naito at all.

Uchiha Tsuki, who had accepted a mission in the south, had made a big detour to the north, as he was the real assassin sent by the Uchiha Clan, AND his target was Naito!

Uchiha Tsuki was a Jounin of Konoha.

But he was also a ninja of the Uchiha Clan!

There was even information about his involvement in the death of two of the best Jounins of enemy villages!

Not even an ordinary Elite Jounin would dare to underestimate Uchiha Tsuki in the slightest when facing him.

If such a person were to attack Naito, it would be an absolute slaughter, with no chance of survival.

"It's too late to stop them... that damn Uchiha Clan is too good," Hiruzen took a deep breath, the anger in his eyes slowly turning into a cold gaze.

Ever since Naito had killed Uchiha Samui and showed incredible talent, Hiruzen made it a point that no one should touch Naito, especially the Uchiha Clan.

But this time, the Uchiha Clan had dared to disobey the Hokage's order, they not only threw his words away, but also went after Naito.

This is where Hiruzen got really angry!

Do you think you can disobey the Hokage?

You think you can upset the Hokage?!

Now that things were irrevocable, Hiruzen would simply let the Uchiha clan know what a Hokage stood for in Konoha.

"Summon the Captain of the Konoha Police!", After taking a deep breath, Hiruzen's tone was incomparably cold.

"Yes," The Anbu disappeared.

Soon, Uchiha Kageyama arrived at the Hokage's Office.

His expression was very calm, it seemed that he had already foreseen all this.

Since he dared to disobey the Hokage's words and send someone to kill Naito, he was already well prepared for what would happen next.

In the Hokage's office, there were only two people, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Uchiha Kageyama.

The presence of the two was very strong.

However, Hiruzen showed no hint of anger, instead, he had a cup of tea in front of him, so he drank it slowly.

Uchiha Kageyama was very patient, he stood there waiting.

But the atmosphere in the room was becoming more and more oppressive.

And the air became heavier and heavier until the moment when Hiruzen put his cup on the table and said, "I heard that Tsuki went on a mission."

"Yes."

"Well, the Uchiha Clan is always working very hard for the sake of Konoha," Hiruzen nodded softly and then suddenly said, "I also heard that your son, Fugaku, is so talented that he already awakened the Sharingan with three tomoe."

This sentence made Kageyama's eyes flash with a hint of fierceness, but he calmed down immediately, "Yes, I am already thinking of giving him my place, but he is still too young and needs more experience and practice"

"Well, it's good to let him have more experience, why don't we let him join the Anbu department for a while?"

"Well, you don't have to worry about this, Hokage-sama." Uchiha Kageyama replied very calmly, then looked seriously at Hiruzen and said, "The other day, I found out something..."

He then took out a scroll and placed it on the table in front of Hiruzen.

Hiruzen looked at him coldly.

How could he have this courage while facing his anger?

And what is on the scroll?

He took the scroll and then gently opened it, then his pupils contracted slightly.

"What a grand gesture... Is it worth it!?", Hiruzen was tired of wasting time, so he asked directly.

"No one can touch the Uchiha Clan in Konoha, Hokage-sama must understand, this is not for the sake of a single person, it is for the sake of the pride of the Uchiha Clan," Uchiha Kageyama raised his head gently and looked into Hiruzen's eyes.

They, the Uchiha Clan, were not really afraid of what Naito might do to them.

Even if he grew up, so what, the Uchiha Clan had never been afraid of anyone.

The real purpose behind it, in fact, was to send a message to everyone in Konoha, Don't mess with the Uchiha Clan!

This clan had its pride.

Hiruzen was silent.

Uchiha Kageyama had shown his full attention, and he is clearly telling him that if this is not possible.... They, the Uchiha clan, will leave Konoha!

If this was in peacetime, Hiruzen would have pressured the Uchiha Clan with such a harsh attitude with a harsher one.

If you dare to leave, I'll kill you!

But not now.

The Second Ninja World War was imminent.

The three Great Ninja Towns had already wiped out all the surrounding small towns....

Whichever way you look at it, this war is inevitable.

If they fall into a major conflict with the Uchiha Clan now, the price to pay will be too high.

"Very well," Hiruzen said these two words and then closed the scroll.

Seeing this scene, Kageyama smiled.

"If everything is clear, I will return, there are things to deal with," After saying that, Kageyama did not wait for Hiruzen to reply and turned around and left the place.

Hiruzen coldly looked at Kageyama's back, did not speak, did not stop him.

Just when Kageyama was already in front of the door, a ninja suddenly opened the door and walked straight in, "Hokage-sama, something happened!"

"What's wrong!?", Hiruzen's tone seemed to carry a bit of anger.

The ninja reported, "A troop from Kirigakure has sneaked into the Fire Country, and it's led by a Jounin from Kirigakure, who belongs to the Hozuki Clan, Akira Hōzuki!"

"Damn it! This is really big" Hiruzen knew that this was really a dangerous situation and was ready to send the Anbu department to deal with them.

Kageyama shook his head slightly, he felt very lazy even from things to hear that had nothing to do with him, so he was ready to leave the Hokage Office.
