Danzo: We Must Protect the Uchiha Clan!

"So, you've been secretly conducting an investigation all this time?"

Konoha, inside the Hokage's Office.

Hiruzen Sarutobi Danzo a dark expression. He never expected that his old friend had been behind his back and done something so big!

He has mixed feelings right now.

He felt fortunate that the damned mysterious Uchiha knew Space-Time Ninjutsu!

Otherwise, if they really get caught, wouldn't they be able to find out something...?

The problem is that this guy is still alive, and he remains a threat to him!

"That's right, and we've made quite a bit of progress."

Hiruzen Sarutobi had no idea about his old friend's complicated situation, and he calmly spoke while puffing on his pipe.

"The reason I didn't tell you was because of the Shisui matter, but now..."

"I was completely innocent in the matter concerning Uchiha Shisui!"

Danzo was furious upon hearing this. He could back down on other matters, but he would never admit it to Uchiha Shisui.

Having learned of Kotoamatsukami's power, he absolutely could not allow Uchiha Shisui to live!

This has nothing to do with what Uchiha Shisui thought or did; it was for the future of Konoha.

Unless, he gains control of Kotoamatsukami...

"I'm not here to argue with you. If that's your attitude, then we don't need to talk anymore."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's cold remark immediately made Danzo cower.

"The matter of Uchiha Shisui is over; the most urgent matter is now..."

"It's good that you understand."

Hiruzen Sarutobi glared at Danzo. Wouldn't it have been better if things had been like this from the beginning?

"According to the investigation, the mysterious Uchiha Mysterious Person has a deep connection with someone, even mentoring him; that person is Uchiha Itachi."

"Uchiha Itachi?"

Danzo gasped in shock. It was he who recommended Itachi Uchiha to join the Anbu!

"Hiruzen Sarutobi, I have absolutely no idea..."

I didn't mean to criticize you.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was well aware of his old friend's worries; he shook his head, pipe in his mouth.

"Moreover, according to Cheng's analysis, they probably had contact a long time ago."

"Very early?"

Danzo a sigh of relief, but quickly frowned.

"Could it be the mission when he awakened his Sharingan?"

"Yes, he was the only one who came back alive from that mission."

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed and spoke in a deep voice.

"It's possible he was released because he awakened his Sharingan, and he may have even experienced the power of the Sharingan."

"Just as the teacher said, they are an evil race..."

Danzo knew exactly what this meant; he had information on the Sharingan!

He had only uttered one curse when he suddenly stopped, his face turning deathly pale!

"Last Hiruzen Sarutobi asked us about the Mangekyo..."

"And that guy possesses the Mangekyo, has a deep connection with Uchiha Itachi, and his Mysterious Organization's target is the Tailed Beast..."

"So, he was training Uchiha Itachi and teaching him how to obtain the Mangekyo?"

In that instant, Danzo's pupils Danzo in shock; a terrifying idea flashed through his mind!

Moreover, his train of thought continues; he needs to think deeper and further ahead.

"The Sharingan's power increases with pain; is the Mangekyo similarly based on the same principle?"

Even if it isn't, the method to make the Sharingan stronger is still extremely painful. So how can you make it even more painful?

"The destruction of the village? The loss of comrades? Or...?"

Danzo paused, his face turning pale as he thought about the current relationship between the Uchiha and Konoha, as well as Uchiha Itachi's actions!

"Damn it, have we been tricked?"

"I don't know, but it's possible."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded; his old friend's reaction was truly quick.

"So I plan to send Uchiha Itachi to your place, so you can test him out properly."

"I see."

Danzo gritted teeth. Even though he wasn't entirely sure, he truly felt like he'd been tricked!

He could use Konoha's might to deal with the Uchiha, and use the blood of his closest relatives and clansmen to nourish his own suffering...

This seems like a viable way to enhance the Sharingan, but this is even more ruthless than that!

"Don't overthink it. It's not certain yet; it's just a test."

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Danzo with some worry.

He handed Uchiha Itachi over to Danzo mainly because everyone knew Uchiha Danzo.

Moreover, this is just a test, and he's afraid Danzo might cause trouble.

"Hiruzen Sarutobi, promise me one thing!"

Before he could even speak, Danzo in anger, which startled him.

"You say..."

We absolutely cannot let these guys succeed in their plot!

"That's natural..."

"We must protect the Uchiha Clan!"

"Ah!?"

"At the very least, we can't die at their hands!"

"...?"

"Finally, we can have some peace and quiet..."

Hyuga Makoto had no idea what was happening in the Hokage's Office.

But he's really exhausted right now!

Being "arrested" by the Branch Family made it incredibly difficult for him to even return home.

That kind of enthusiasm made his scalp tingle. If Hyuga Hiashi n't come, he probably still wouldn't be able to have any peace!

"But this isn't a bad thing for me, since my special mission inevitably involves this step..."

Looking at Naruto, who was already asleep beside him, Hyuga Makoto rubbed his chin and muttered to himself.

"Judging from this situation, all that's missing are people who can infiltrate the Anbu, and the ' Caged Bird ' to seal them!"

This special mission went much more smoothly than he had imagined.

Looking back at the preparations he made to join the Anbu, the difficulty of these two things is on completely different levels!

What made him even happier was that when Hyuga Hiashi saw him bring Naruto back to the clan, his gaze towards him immediately changed.

Those members of the Main Branch who had come along and knew a little about Naruto's situation looked extremely grim!

"After all, they don't understand the situation, and I even brought back the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki..."

What does this mean? I'm sure these people will have a lot to think about!

"Fine, let them think what they want. I should just deal with my reward."

Hyuga Makoto was truly looking forward to Obito's Yin Release.

Or rather, what he's most looking forward to is spatial capabilities!

After all, even a "moon version" of Otsutsuki shouldn't lack this kind of ability...

"And my eyes are already 90% full, maybe this time they can fill them in completely."

Hyuga Makoto has a fairly clear understanding of his own eyes.

His eyes are absolutely complete, the Tenseigan containing all his abilities!

It's just that he hasn't fully activated these abilities yet because he hasn't developed them enough.

"Otherwise, when I used the power of the moon, I wouldn't have suddenly gained so many abilities, and wouldn't have been able to use them..."

He's now at a small tipping point, and he's genuinely curious about what it will be like once it's fully filled.

And what kind of power is brewing in his eyes?

"Let's begin!"

Without further thought, he immediately Obito Obito's Yin Release into his body.

Almost instantly, he felt a surge of heat in his body.

That surging power stirred his blood and continuously converged in his eyes!

Slowly, he felt something begin to "break out" in his eyes.

A vague message slowly surfaced in his mind, leaving him feeling completely disoriented.

More importantly, the space around him began to distort...
