In the dead of night.
Konoha has long fallen into a dreamland.
Only the Hokage office still has flashing lights.
Bang!
Bang bang bang!
"Monkey, why do you want to mess with me?!"
After returning from the commotion, Danzo's anger could no longer be suppressed.
Like a tragically betrayed lioness looking at a lion in disbelief.
From just now until now, he had been thinking about this along the way.
After hearing this, the Third Hokage knocked the pipe in his hands and said with a calm expression:
"You've asked forty-three times since you just returned!"
"Don't you reflect on why Anbu and I rushed there?!"
"Another—monkey, monkey, monkey! You have to know that I am Hokage!"
By the end of his words, Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up directly.
He looked directly at Danzo opposite him.
Even though he was a little shorter due to his age, his whole body was even more imposing!
Danzo couldn't help but look dazed after witnessing this scene.
The originally powerful momentum weakened in an instant.
In front of him stood the man known as the strongest shadow in the world of ninjas!
The Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen!
It was this look of a man that made him feel both love and hate.
In the end, he could only choose to take root underground, bury it deep under trees, and help Naruto.
But now...
For a moment, Danzo actually had the urge to forget it.
He even wanted to be disarmed and return to the field directly!
Seeing his friend seem frightened and speechless, the passion in his eyes was also disappearing.
The Third Hokage paused in expression and changed his voice:
"Danzo, my body has been in ruins since many wars over the years."
"But the next Hokage must be able to make more contributions to the village."
"Do you understand what I mean?"
After saying that, he picked up the Hokage cloak on the side and patted Danzo.
He walked to the window and murmured: "The Uchiha situation needs to be resolved, but now is not the time."
"Moreover, Konoha not only needs the shadow on my face but also the nameless shadow that secretly protects Konoha."
Snap.
This shot left Danzo utterly stunned.
In particular, the four characters "Unknown Shadow" almost turned him into a mouthpiece.
One eye was on the Hokage cloak in front of him.
Thoughts welled up in his heart.
So, what Hiruzen means is that my contribution to the village is not enough now?
So if I become Hokage, I will not convince the public?
Right!
It must be so!
So, just continue to contribute to the village, maybe!!!
Thinking of this, Danzo's newly born heart that didn't want to retreat disappeared in an instant.
He was like a determined warrior filled with adrenaline.
He turned around and looked at Hiruzen, his voice rising a lot, and said, "I understand!"
After that, he took the Hokage cloak, turned around, and left.
Every step was very heavy but firm.
Only Hiruzen stood by the window, silently looking at the weather outside, waiting.
Just after the moon was about to set, a long-haired boy from the Uchiha clan slowly knocked on Naruto's door.
"Itachi, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
"Do you know? Your brother took Shisui's eyes with his own hands today?"
. . . . .
"It's a pity that this guy Danzo didn't take action against the Third Hokage; he went back honestly?"
"Is this still the Root leader who dares to attack Naruto?"
"The ambition is gone, Danzo."
At the same time, in front of the cliff.
Uchiha Ember, who had gone and returned, was leaning boredly against the tree.
The scene from just now came to mind.
Although Danzo was angry at first, he still did not dare to take action after seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Just honest accusations.
This made him feel like watching a play and hit rock bottom.
"But it's okay; after waiting for so long, I still waited for something."
He murmured and turned to look at the moon.
To be precise, it was the figure wearing a mask under the moonlight.
"You knew I'd come?"
Kakashi put away the treasure in his hand and walked over slowly, thinking thoughtfully.
"I am becoming more and more curious about you now."
Kakashi is an out-and-out Naruto supporter.
There is no doubt about this.
It's just that as far as he is concerned, he often doesn't intervene if he can.
Even when he saw it, he just turned a blind eye.
He just wants to do his own thing in peace.
But...
The young boy from the Uchiha clan in front of him made his heart race.
There is even a sense of ambiguity that cannot be clearly explained.
It seems that no secret can be hidden from these little eyes.
So after hesitating, Kakashi asked:
"You seem to have known for a long time that Mr. Danzo would attack Shisui?"
Otherwise, he couldn't figure out why, in an instant, all the firepower would come to the cliff.
"Know?" Jin shrugged, "What kind of temperament is hidden in the group? You should know better than I do, right?"
The key to getting rid of suspicion is not to prove yourself but to throw the problem back.
Obviously, Kakashi doesn't know this truth.
After listening to him, he really started to think seriously.
"In the beginning, even this eye of mine, if it weren't for the Third Hokage, I'm afraid..."
In the end, he nodded with difficulty and came to a conclusion:
"Although I don't want to admit it, if you let Mr. Danzo know about the ability of Shisui's eyes, he may really have a plan."
Greedy, insidious, and coveting Uchiha's eyes.
This is Danzo.
See, this is the benefit of self-strategies.
Jin smiled and suddenly changed his voice: "So Kakashi, do you hope that the village and the Uchiha clan will cause trouble to the point of death?"
"Do you hope that the prosperous village that the Fourth Hokage wanted will be broken?"
"Do you want the clansmen who want to bring Obito to die one by one?"
Click.
Kakashi subconsciously stepped on the branch in front of him.
The crisp sound, like a giant hammer, struck him in the ear.
Hammer after hammer, cracking his head's headache.
After a long time, he touched his left eye behind the mask and murmured:
"If Teacher Minato were still here, he wouldn't be sitting on the sidelines like the Third Hokage, right?"
"Teacher Minato would definitely be able to communicate very sincerely."
"Bringing Obito to him... you should hate me even more, right?"
"I didn't protect Rin well, and I didn't protect his family well..."
All kinds of thoughts appeared in his mind.
Inadvertently, a seed also took root.
It's anger at Danzo.
It is also dissatisfaction with Naruto standing by and watching.
He rubbed his left eye behind the blindfold, which seemed a little hot.
There was also some... pain.
"Obito, are you feeling pain for your people?"
"Don't worry; I will protect your people!"
At this moment, Kakashi's body gradually grew taller.
Just opposite.
"Protect?"
Jin looked at Kakashi and couldn't help but curl his lips.
"Brother Obito made his second official appearance, but Uchiha directly exterminated the clan..."
