"You want to enter the village?"
Inside the splendid Money Exchange, Boss An frowned and looked at Uchiha Jie in front of him.
"You finally escaped and now you have to go back. Isn't this a self-inflicted trap?"
"Oh, Lao An, how could this be a self-inflicted trap?" Uchiha Jie patted his friend's arm and explained with a smile:
"I will leave my two children with you, then take a ride and follow your caravan to sneak into Konoha without anyone noticing."
"Now Konoha is not as nervous as before. There is no such strict inspection whether leaving or entering the village, especially since Hyuga Clan is no longer involved."
"If that's the case, then there should be no problem. I'll make arrangements right away."
Mr. An nodded, turned around and called a staff member, and arranged many matters for entering Konoha's caravan.
But when he followed the caravan to the Konoha Gate entrance, he found that the village's inspection of pedestrians and caravans had once again become stricter.
While he was lining up, there was an explosion next to him, and Black Cat appeared again.
"The cat brought information. Uchiha Itachi appeared in Konoha and attacked little Lu Yu and little Sasuke, but they are fine."
"Little Lu Yu wants me to tell you that Danzo seems to be involved, but it seems that he doesn't intend to continue the investigation. She has other bad intentions." After saying this, Black Cat exploded into a puff of smoke and disappeared.
It makes sense that the village's security has become stricter. This strict inspection does not seem to involve Anbu from Hokage and ordinary ninjas, but Root cooperating with Security Force.
It seems that Uchiha Itachi's behavior of sneaking into Konoha was noticed by Danzo, but I don't know what Third Hokage's attitude is now.
"We pay to jump in line..." He knocked on the front of the carriage, and a sweet reply soon came.
The caravan that Mr. An arranged for Uchiha Jie was not just a few carriages with a few goods, but a large caravan that truly belonged to him.
Not only his casino, but his caravan also has beautiful staff, and even the guards are handsome men and beautiful women. Such a caravan is particularly eye-catching, and of course it is also famous.
"Hey, hey, they cut in line!" Someone just shouted out and was grabbed by his companions.
"That's Mr. An's caravan. Don't treat those people as flower vases. Although they are not ninjas, almost everyone has a strength close to Genin. They are walking sideways in Land of Fire's territory."
Others knew them, and Konoha naturally knew them too. Chunin, who was responsible for the inspection, was all smiles. Only the guy Root had a straight face, but he didn't check very carefully. Now all the focus is on the people leaving the village.
After entering the village, no one was willing to interrogate the caravan. Uchiha Jie left behind a Shadow Clone. The main body changed his clothes and ran quickly towards the Uchiha Clan's clan.
However, when I arrived, I found that someone was already investigating in the clan area. It was not Root, but Security Force.
Their minister was persuaded to go back to the office by Third Hokage, and at this time he was holding back his anger.
"The old man is unwilling to send out Anbu or inform Jonin. He must have colluded with that bastard Uchiha Itachi long ago."
Sasuke was rushed to another room, and only Shikaru Nara and Sarutobi Kou were left here. The Minister's appearance of knocking on the table was the same as when he was in front of Third Hokage.
She has been driven crazy recently, by the elders in the family, Third Hokage, her subordinates and others.
She finished patting the table, rubbed her temples, looked at Shikaru Nara on the sofa, and asked, "How do you usually deal with so many things."
"All it takes is a little patience and a little wisdom, my lord minister." Shikaru Nara played with the hair beside his ears and played with the chess game in front of him with his other hand.
It is not the shogi that Nara Family often plays, but the much more complex and advanced Go. In this aspect, she is still a beginner, trying to play against herself while looking at the chess records next to her.
"Third Hokage hopes to stay out of it, but if he doesn't do anything, this storm won't go away soon."
"Root is hiding in the dark and ready to make moves. The first thing Uchiha Itachi did when he returned to Konoha was to find his younger brother. Hyuga Branch Family is very angry and your family is not feeling well."
"Lord Hokage..."
Uchiha Itachi, wearing Black Cloud Robe, was half-kneeling behind Third Hokage. Compared to the last time he left Konoha, his Hokage was much older.
The sun has set, and they are at the top of Hokage Rock. Few people come here during the day, and it is especially quiet after dark.
But the scenery here is particularly good. From where Third Hokage is standing, you can see the entire Konoha. You can see dots of lights emitting from the windows of every house, reflecting the busy figures inside.
Most people were cooking dinner, and the street selling snacks was particularly lively. Third Hokage held a pipe in his mouth and whispered:
"I heard that you went to see your brother first. How is Sasuke?"
Uchiha Itachi clenched his fists and said, "Sasuke is followed by a person from the Nara Family, and she seems to be living in the clan area now."
"You mean little Lu Yu." Third Hokage exhaled a puff of smoke. Through the smoke, the scenery of Konoha became even hazier. In his eyes, the lights connected into a piece with ripples, which was really beautiful.
"She brought me Uchiha Jie's suicide note, which said that Uchiha Jie's house will be hers after her death."
"That's why she lives in your tribe now."
Third Hokage's eyes turned to the place where the lights were once bright, but now there was only one slightly taller building with lights on.
"It seems that she was frightened by you. She may have taken Sasuke to stay at the Nara Family."
"Sasuke may have a spy around him..." Uchiha Itachi spoke again.
Of course he can't tell Third Hokage that I don't trust you, so I rushed back to the village to check on my brother shortly after I left. But if I say that there are spies around my brother, you will take it seriously.
Sure enough, the third generation turned his head. Although he was hunched over, he was still taller than Uchiha Itachi, who was half kneeling on the ground. His eyes were fixed on Itachi who lowered his head, but he did not speak.
"I met a mysterious man outside the village, even more mysterious than the guy wearing a mask from Akatsuki."
Itachi seemed to have noticed Third Hokage's movements and said softly.
"He pretended to be Captain Kakashi. He had two Mangekyō Sharingans. His pupil skills were extremely powerful. Even Three Tails's Tailed Beast Ball was directly blocked. Genjutsu was also extremely powerful. I even fell into it..."
