An hour passed quietly.
The competition between the two of them, Water Release and Taijutsu, finally came to an end.
The outcome has been decided, Uchiha wins.
Uchiha, finally under the operation of Uchiha's current Clan Leader Chiyo.
Steadily beat Senju Clan!
A huge victory!
"That's probably what happened this time."
Chiyo hugged the quiet and gentle Tsunade and recounted yesterday's events one by one.
"I didn't expect them to be so evil!"
Tsunade's face was pink, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and frowned.
"Who did this?"
Tsunade turned his eyes and stared straight at Chiyo.
"Danzo, besides him, who else has such strength!"
Chiyo is not hiding it either.
If Tsunade knows about Root earlier, he will be able to take more precautions in the future.
Although I know that Danzo will not attack Tsunade, I still have to be careful after all.
Sometimes crazy dogs will bite people randomly.
"Do you still remember the Wood Release Experiment organized by the village before?"
Tsunade nodded.
"Isn't that something that the old man can ban?"
How could she not know.
We do this to protect the village and the young children from harm.
"Third Hokage Although it is banned, it cannot stop the desires of some people."
"Danzo has money, Orochimaru has technology, and the two of them will eventually get together."
Tsunade was silent for a moment when he heard Danzo.
He stood up on his own, walked to the window sill and opened the window.
The breeze blows in, and the golden hair floats.
The smell of sweat in the room dilutes quickly.
Tsunade picked up a bottle of water and rinsed his mouth.
Bang.
The water bottle hit the windowsill and splashed.
"This Danzo is really heartbroken!"
Tsunade An angry voice sounded.
"He actually attacked a child! What a beast!"
Chiyo shrugged.
Danzo's behavior is indeed anti-human.
After all, they are children.
"I didn't expect that in just a short time, Orochimaru would have fallen like this..."
Tsunade murmured in a low voice, Chiyo saw this and stood up.
He came to her and put his arms around her shoulders.
"Orochimaru has changed. He is no longer the Orochimaru you know."
Tsunade was not talking. Chiyo knew that she had a strong temper and didn't want him to see her vulnerable side.
Patted her on the back.
Turn around and leave.
As soon as he walked out, Yakushi Nonō's eyes lit up and he hurried to the front.
"Chiyo-kun!"
Yakushi Nonō observed Chiyo and seemed to feel that after Chiyo came out, it was faintly different from before.
But the specifics are different.
She couldn't tell.
"It's Nonō! Is the examination of Teng's child over?"
Nonō smiled and narrowed his eyes.
"Teng's test results have come out. There is no abnormality in his body. He is just mentally frightened. He just needs to rest for a few days."
"Well, that's good. This will give his parents an explanation."
Nonō heard Chiyo's words, and his evaluation of Chiyo was much higher.
Chiyo-kun, very responsible!
Chiyo's eyes fell on her slightly tired face.
"You look a little tired."
Nonō was startled, then lowered his head and chuckled.
"Medical Team's work is busier than expected, but... very fulfilling."
Chiyo sat down on a chair not far from her.
"Speaking of which, I haven't had a proper chat with you since you came here Konoha Hospital."
His tone was casual, but with a hint of seriousness.
"You were at Root before. It must have been very hard, right?"
Nonō's fingers paused slightly.
She didn't expect that Chiyo would suddenly mention this.
Those days lurking in the darkness and those cold intelligence missions should have been a past she didn't want to recall.
But at this moment, his eyes were gentle and focused, as if he was telling her.
"You can talk and I will listen."
"... not bad."
She answered softly, unconsciously curling a strand of hair with her fingertips.
Chiyo looked at her and suddenly spoke.
"Actually, I've always been curious."
"Huh?"
"Why did you choose to become Medical Ninja?"
Nonō was silent for a moment, his eyes falling on the sunset outside the window.
"Because... rather than taking away a life, I want to save it."
Her voice was very soft, but extremely firm.
"Even if I can only save one person, that's fine."
Chiyo stared at her quietly, a hint of appreciation flashed in his black eyes.
"It's amazing."
Nonō The tips of his ears were slightly red, and he looked away, concealing his accelerated heartbeat.
"...Chiyo-kun."
She suddenly spoke.
"Huh?"
"I know you did all this, thank you."
She raised her head, her dark green eyes shining in the light, full of seriousness.
"Thank you for giving me the opportunity... to walk this path."
Chiyo was startled for a moment, then a soft smile appeared on the corners of his lips.
"No, it's me who should say thank you."
He said softly.
"I'm so lucky to have met you."
Nonō's eyes widened and his heartbeat skipped a beat.
"Clan Leader!"
Just then.
A Uchiha quickly came to the front, breaking the gradually ambiguous atmosphere between the two.
"Lord Hokage is looking for you!"
Chiyo nodded.
"Have the report materials been delivered?"
"Just delivered!"
After speaking, he handed the report in his arms to Chiyo.
Chiyo stood up and was about to walk outside, browsing casually.
The content of the compiled report is quite detailed.
I had just walked two steps, thinking that I had not said goodbye to Nonō just now.
Then turned around.
"Sorry, Nonō! We will have a good chat next time when we have time!"
Nonō nodded quickly.
"Well Chiyo-kun's matter is important..."
Chiyo's eyes flashed, and he was keenly aware of something strange.
Yakushi Nonō's pupils seemed a little dilated, and his eyes instinctively narrowed.
This situation...
Why does it look so much like vision loss?
"Well, Nonō, I'll wait for you at Dumpling Shop at noon tomorrow!"
Chiyo wrote it down and turned to look at Uchiha beside him.
"I'll leave the hospital affairs to you! Please comfort Teng and their parents."
"Yes, Clan Leader!"
Chiyo nodded and left alone.
Warm sunlight passes through the windows of Hokage's Office, dyeing the entire room dark gold.
Hiruzen Sarutobi is sitting behind the large desk, the green smoke rising from the pipe slowly hovering in the light.
His eyes were calm, yet sharp and sharp that could not be ignored.
The door was gently pushed open, and Chiyo Uchiha walked in calmly, his black eyes as calm as water.
"Lord Hokage."
He nodded slightly, his tone respectful but neither humble nor overbearing.
"Here he comes, Chiyo."
Hiruzen Sarutobi put down his pipe, his voice low and gentle.
"Sit down."
Chiyo sat down on the guest chair and put his hands on his knees naturally.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes stayed on him for a moment.
"How is the Guard Unit investigation going on about the child last night?"
"It has been confirmed that it was the work of external forces."
Chiyo spoke calmly.
"The other party's methods were professional, his actions were quick, and his goals were clear. It was obviously carefully planned."
"Oh?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes narrowed.
"Any clues pointing to someone?"
Chiyo thought for a moment, then said calmly.
"We are still investigating, but one thing is certain. The other party is very familiar with Konoha's patrol route and Barrier's weak points."
Hiruzen Sarutobi's fingers tapped lightly on the table, the rhythm was slow and heavy.
"You mean... there's help from inside?"
Chiyo smiled meaningfully.
"Lord Hokage, some forces have been lurking in the darkness for too long, and may have forgotten which side they should be on."
Hiruzen Sarutobi's brows furrowed slightly.
He heard the implication of Chiyo.
The air in the room seemed to freeze for a moment.
Hiruzen Sarutobi was silent for a moment, and then slowly exhaled a puff of smoke. His tone was still calm, but a little more tentative.
"Chiyo, last night's Anbu report mentioned that you had used Genjutsu on Anbu people?"
This is obviously a knock.
Chiyo's expression remained unchanged, and a faint smile even appeared on the corner of his lips.
"The situation was urgent and the other party wanted to take away key witnesses without permission. I could only temporarily stop it."
He paused, his tone still calm.
"After all, Guard Unit's duty is to maintain order in the village, and the actions of some people... don't seem to be in line with the rules."
Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep look at Chiyo and weighed it in his mind.
Recently, Uchiha has become popular in the village.
He originally wanted to take advantage of Genjutsu to hit Uchiha to make the other party restrain himself.
But Chiyo turned the blame lightly.
Finally, Hiruzen Sarutobi slowly leaned back in his chair, the smoke from his pipe blurring his expression.
"Chiyo, this matter... continue to investigate."
There was a hint of exhaustion in his tone, but it also contained a profound meaning.
"But remember, it must be kept secret.
Konoha's stability is above all else."
Chiyo nodded slightly.
"I understand."
Third Hokage acquiesced in his investigation of Root Organization, and Chiyo...
I won't make things big for the time being.
The two looked at each other tacitly, then Chiyo put down the report and stood up to leave.
Watching him open the door and leave, Hiruzen Sarutobi sat alone in the darkening room, the pipe Hokage flickering in the shadows.
"Danzo, don't let me down!"
