When Uchiha Toko received the message Kakashi had sent, he was in the Military Police Force with Fugaku, sorting through the clan's ninjutsu so they could be distributed to Commoner Ninja who came to work for the Military Police Force.

From the clan's inherited techniques and the spoils of war collected by generations of Uchiha, the two selected three C-rank ninjutsu for each Chakra nature. The Fire Style techniques naturally included the renowned Great Fireball and Phoenix Sage Fire Technique. As for the techniques of the other four natures, while their quality might have been slightly inferior to that of ninja clans specializing in those elements, they were still far superior to the commonplace techniques available to genin. After all, not just any ninjutsu could enter the Uchiha Clan's collection.

"Giving out C-rank ninjutsu after only one month of work? Isn't that a bit too generous?" Uchiha Fugaku still had some reservations.

After all, outside the clan, an ordinary genin whose squad leader was not particularly strong might have to complete missions for an entire year before getting a chance to learn a C-rank ninjutsu. This was one reason why the gap between ninja clan members and Commoner Ninja was so vast.

"Just give them out," Uchiha Toko said indifferently. "No matter how many people learn them, the ninjutsu won't diminish. As for the resource control that other ninja clans need to consider, the Uchiha Clan has no such need. The true foundation of our clan will always be the Sharingan."

"Clan Head, Kakashi Hatake is here to see you." At that moment, someone knocked on the door to the captain's office of the Military Police Force. After Uchiha Toko opened it, a Uchiha chunin reported the visitor's arrival. The man was two years younger than Uchiha Toko and had only graduated from the Ninja Academy last year. Judging by his expression, however, he did not seem pleased by Kakashi Hatake's visit.

"Kentaro, a guest is a guest. Don't neglect him," Uchiha Toko said, calling the man by name as he gave him a mild reminder.

"But..." Uchiha Kentaro seemed to want to say something, but Uchiha Toko had already placed a hand on his shoulder. The two spoke as they walked.

"I know what you want to say. Although Kakashi bears an eye from our clan, that eye was a final gift from our clan's hero, Obito Uchiha. That eye carries on Obito's will. The Uchiha respect a hero's decision, and Kakashi has not dishonored the name of the Sharingan," Uchiha Toko said.

The captain's office of the Military Police Force was not far from the reception room, and Uchiha Toko had made no effort to lower his voice. At that moment, Kakashi, who was in the reception room, could clearly hear every word Uchiha Toko said.

Kakashi was slightly moved. Ever since receiving that eye, the Uchiha Clan had never looked kindly upon him. Yet this new clan head was unexpectedly friendly toward him.

Uchiha Toko pushed open the reception room door and walked inside.

"May I ask what brings Senior Kakashi to the Military Police Force?"

"By order of the Hokage, Clan Head Uchiha Toko is requested to report the progress of the investigation into Shimura Danzō's case at the Hokage Building tomorrow," Kakashi said.

"I understand." Uchiha Toko nodded. "I'll be there tomorrow."

Seeing this, Kakashi prepared to leave, but Uchiha Toko called out to him.

"Senior Kakashi, please wait."

"Is something wrong?" Kakashi turned back and looked at Uchiha Toko in confusion.

"Since you're already here, take that Wood Style ninja with you. We've clarified the issues surrounding him. Due to his age, he did not participate in most of what Danzo did. As for the one case that remains questionable, I believe Senior Kakashi knows exactly which one it is. Only the Hokage can decide his crime," Uchiha Toko said with a smile.

Kakashi then recalled the Wood Style ninja who had fought him while protecting the Third Hokage, and he nodded.

Uchiha Toko led Kakashi to the area containing the Interrogation Room. The screams of Shimura Hiro and the others drifting out from within made Kakashi frown slightly.

"The Military Police Force's interrogation methods are ultimately not as professional as those of your Anbu, so we can only use some special measures," Uchiha Toko said without changing expression. "There's someone inside who was deeply involved in the White Fang Incident. Would you like to take a look?"

Kakashi's expression shifted slightly, but he still refused Uchiha Toko's offer. "Forget it. It wouldn't look good if I went in."

Uchiha Toko said nothing more and merely led Kakashi to the cell where Yamato was being held, then took out a scroll.

"This man is the product of the vile experiments of Danzo and the rogue ninja Orochimaru. I'll report the details to the Third Hokage tomorrow. This is the key to the Sealing Technique formula on his body."

After handing the scroll to Kakashi, Uchiha Toko gestured for him to go in and take Yamato away.

Before long, Kakashi took Yamato back to report his mission. After Kakashi left, Uchiha Toko turned and entered the cell where Yamanaka Fu was being held.

Compared with Yamato, Yamanaka Fu had received no such favorable treatment. Not only had he gone without food or water since being captured, but in just two days, nearly every named chunin in the Uchiha Clan had beaten him up once. He had also endured three rounds of Sharingan Genjutsu interrogation. Now, Yamanaka Fu was strapped to a cross, without even the strength to lift his head.

After entering the cell, Uchiha Toko pulled over a table and immediately began writing down Danzo's Evidence of Crimes.

He wrote at length about how Danzo had colluded with Orochimaru to harm the village's orphans, deliberately caused fellow Konoha ninja to die on the battlefield in order to obtain their bloodlines, spread rumors about White Fang throughout the village and driven Konoha's hero to a stifled suicide, then finally silenced the people involved one by one.

This was the greatest advantage of being a transmigrator. Uchiha Toko knew all the rotten things Shimura Danzō had done by heart without needing to interrogate anyone, and even the direction for fabricating evidence was readily available.

After finishing Danzo's criminal record, Uchiha Toko stepped forward, cut open Yamanaka Fu's finger, and pressed his fingerprint onto it.

Yamanaka Fu laboriously raised his head and glared hatefully at everything Uchiha Toko was doing.

At that moment, the Mangekyō Sharingan in Uchiha Toko's eyes silently opened, and Eye Power mixed with Chakra invaded Yamanaka Fu's brain directly.

Uchiha Toko's Genjutsu skill was actually rather crude compared to that of the other clan members, roughly at the beginner level. Any chunin from the clan would surpass him in Genjutsu attainments. But at this moment, Uchiha Toko did not intend to use Genjutsu to make Yamanaka Fu say anything. All he wanted was to destroy the man's mind.

"Abba... Abba..."

In mere moments, Yamanaka Fu's consciousness on the cross was shattered under the combined effects of Mangekyo Eye Power and Chakra. Yamanaka Fu became a useless wreck who could do nothing but drool and mutter, "Abba, abba."
