Hinata was clearly unaware that Hyuga Hiashi was preoccupied with her marriage. If she had known, Hinata would have assumed that her tendency to overthink was inherited from Hyuga Hiashi.

Hinata was listening attentively to Tsunade's words.

Hinata had watched many detective shows in her previous life, and the detectives in them often said a line: "Whenever two objects come into contact, a transfer phenomenon will inevitably occur."

During the investigation of a crime scene, the perpetrator will inevitably take something away and leave something behind.

Sasuke's invasion of Konoha caused such a huge uproar. Although he eventually managed to escape, he also left behind a lot of clues for Konoha.

Sasuke's seemingly illogical strength, his understanding of Konoha's defensive deployments, and the mysterious person who ultimately rescued Sasuke... all of this can only prove that the other party knows Konoha very well, and may even have been a Konoha ninja in the past.

The Uchiha Clan Massacre was a closely guarded secret in Konoha, and Tsunade could not reveal it at the Jonin meeting. However, Tsunade knew very well that everyone Sasuke killed during his invasion of Konoha was related to the Uchiha Clan Massacre.

Sasuke already knows the truth about the massacre of his clan.

Although Orochimaru was not involved in the Uchiha Orochimaru Uchiha Clan Massacre, given his intelligence capabilities, he was likely aware of the truth of the matter.

Did Orochimaru tell Sasuke?

Tsunade had already dismissed this possibility in her mind.

Orochimaru only wanted Sasuke's body; Sasuke's hatred was irrelevant to Orochimaru. According to Jiraiya's information, Sasuke wanted revenge against Itachi Uchiha, which perfectly aligned with Orochimaru's interests, as both Orochimaru and Itachi Uchiha shared an unhappy past.

The person who ultimately rescued Sasuke and used Space-time ninjutsu undoubtedly came under Tsunade's suspicion.

In Konoha's archives, a mysterious figure appeared Konoha both the Nine-Tails Incident and the Uchiha Clan Massacre. However, Minato Namikaze died too quickly, and the Uchiha was wiped out. To this day, Konoha only knows of this person's existence, but has no information about him whatsoever.

Itachi Uchiha might know, but he couldn't reveal Obito's information to Konoha.

Because once Konoha begins investigating the mysterious masked man, it proves that Itachi Uchiha is a spy infiltrating the Akatsuki.

The Five Kage Summit revealed to Tsunade that another pair of Mangekyō Sharingan were hidden behind the scenes of the Shinobi World.

Is it Shisui Uchiha?

After becoming Hokage, Tsunade learned a lot about the Uchiha.

According to Konoha's classified files, Shisui Uchiha created the illusion of blinding himself before drowning. However, his body was never found, and the only evidence from the Uchiha clan was a suicide note left by Shisui that he had 'committed suicide'.

However, according to the Third Hokage's assessment of Shisui Uchiha, he shouldn't have done such a thing.

And the age doesn't match either...

Could it really be Madara Uchiha?

Tsunade was very reluctant to believe that Madara Uchiha was still alive, because it not only proved that Hashirama Senju had actually lost to Madara Uchiha in the battle at the Valley of the End, but also showed how terrifying the enemy Konoha was facing.

The Space-time ninjutsu that the opponent displayed today, as well as Sasuke's inexplicable increase in strength, are enough to prove that the opponent is unfathomable.

Mastering Space-time ninjutsu means that the opponent is already in an invincible position.

After Tsunade finished reporting the whole incident, the Konoha Jonin began to discuss it, offering various possibilities.

Although Konoha's losses this time were not significant, the three people killed were, after all, high-ranking figures.

The Root will be rejoined to the Anbu, and the Hokage Advisor's job is to supervise the Hokage and keep his power in check to prevent Hokage from abusing his authority and doing things that would harm the village. Therefore, Tsunade has no intention of abolishing the position of Hokage Advisor.

Konoha will select a new Hokage Advisor as soon as possible.

At this point in the meeting, Hinata and Hyuga Hiashi a knowing glance.

Hyuga Hiashi has a chance.

As a veteran ninja in the village and Hinata's father, Hyuga Hiashi was qualified to compete for the position of Hokage Advisor, and was even pre-selected as the next Hokage Advisor.

However, Hyuga Hiashi had his own considerations for this matter, so Hinata didn't need to say anything more.

Hinata was still thinking about Sasuke and Obito. Those two were probably hiding somewhere right now, plotting their plans!

An underground base somewhere in the Land of Fire.

Sasuke sat expressionlessly on the bed, Obito Uchiha against the doorframe, looking at Sasuke with his head turned to the side.

The two had been silent for a while.

After a long while, Sasuke looked up at Obito, the Three Tomoe in his eyes slowly swirling, and coldly questioned, "Where is Itachi?"

Obito didn't act nonchalantly. Instead, his voice was deep and his tone carried a hint of criticism, "Sasuke, if you act impulsively like this, you'll suffer a great loss sooner or later!"

"That's none of your business!"

Sasuke remained unmoved, coldly replying, "I'll ask you one more time, where is Itachi?"

This was not the first time Sasuke and Obito had met.

Several hours earlier, after Hinata left the Root Base, Obito took the initiative to appear and meet with Sasuke.

Sasuke's reaction was as expected; the moment he saw Obito, he drew his sword and slashed at him.

Sasuke's masterful Space-time ninjutsu made Sasuke realize that he was still no match for Obito. Moreover, in Hinata's plan, Obito shouldn't have died now.

The two then had a conversation.

Although Obito was surprised that Sasuke knew the truth about the Uchiha Clan Extermination and had also gained great power... Obito still repeated the truth about the Uchiha Clan Extermination and also talked about the darkness of the Konoha High Command.

The Uchiha coup was the result of Konoha's coup... This is an indisputable fact.

Inside a sealed room.

"Hinata Hyuga is indeed a genius ninja who can be compared to me and Hashirama..."

Obito's voice was full of authority, yet also somewhat nonchalant as he said, "But after all, it's difficult for her to access the village's confidential information."

"Konoha's rejection of the Uchiha has a long history, probably because my ideals differ from Hashirama's..."

"Perhaps... it's because of a more distant hatred... the hatred between the Senju and Uchiha generations!"

Sasuke stared coldly at Obito, remaining silent the entire time.

Obito ultimately underestimated Hinata. Hinata's sources of information were not just the results of her investigation, but also because of her connection to the 'transmigrator'.

Sasuke not only fully understood everything Obito said, but also knew clearly that the person in front of him was not Madara Uchiha, but Kakashi's dead teammate— Obito Uchiha.

Just as Hinata said, if Sasuke were to take his anger out on someone else, he would have to destroy Konoha.

But Hinata's ideals allowed Sasuke to see something much more distant.

However, Hinata has her Hinata plans, and Sasuke has his Sasuke plans.

Obito's appearance can be considered an unexpected bonus.

Sasuke knew very well that Obito's appearance was to use his power, but Sasuke also needed someone to guide him and involve him in these schemes.
