The plan succeeded
Even Shibi Aburame couldn't help but take a few steps back. Although he was confident in his Insect Technique, he wasn't foolish enough to think that his Insect Technique could deal with this abnormally strong brat. 💣☆ 🍩♤
"There's really nothing we can do about it," Yang Xing sighed.
"Wait, don't..." Shibi Aburame's forehead was covered in sweat. He paused, afraid that Yang Xing would attack him.
Unexpectedly, the unbelievably eccentric brat in front of me actually smiled, scratched his head, and chuckled, "Looks like leaving the village is my only option. I really didn't expect you to be hiding somewhere, Uncle?"
"Hmm, you don't want to kill me?"
"Huh, why?" Yang Xing was stunned for a moment, asking himself if he had become a ruthless killer, and besides, Sharingan seen wasn't a big deal.
He could simply leave the village; it's not like he can't survive.
"Really? That's true." Shibi Aburame for a second, then quickly regained her composure, staring intently at Yang Xing, and said very seriously, "I can tell you this seriously, I won't tell anyone else about this."
"Real?"
"At least, I won't say anything until you pose no danger to our clan. Besides, you've helped the Aburame Clan a lot."
"That seems to be the case."
They're trying to incite the Aburame Clan to rebel, even though it's not a good thing.
But this will indeed allow the Aburame Clan to grow stronger. After Danzo was brought down this time, the entire Council of Elders be unable to accomplish anything. In the end, the Anbu will definitely be changed. At that time, the biggest beneficiaries will naturally be those who planned this, such as Yang Xing.
Yang Xing understood this, but Shibi Aburame understood its importance even more.
Therefore, although Yang Xing's Sharingan is terrifying, he would never reveal it to anyone.
Seeing the sincerity in Shibi Aburame's eyes, Yang Xing breathed a slight sigh of relief, withdrew his Sharingan, and left with a single sentence. "Then, Uncle, just pretend you didn't see anything today. I'm tired and need to go back and rest."
The sight of him turning and leaving left Shibi Aburame somewhat stunned.
He hadn't expected Yang Xing to believe him so quickly, which startled him slightly. He frowned and muttered, "Kid, what kind of person are you? Well, since you don't pose a threat to our clan, I won't lay a hand on you."
Konoha, no, the entire Land of Fire.
There are several families within the country, including ordinary families and prestigious families with high reputations in the villages.
In short, a prestigious and influential family.
The development and prosperity of their village are sustained by the connections between families.
And it was inevitable that they would have covert struggles.
After all, where there are interests, there will be struggles, and this is unavoidable for both ninjas and ordinary people.
Early in the morning, Konoha appeared to be as usual.
Only a few people know about the changes that have taken place.
Right there in the Hokage Building, inside the Hokage's office, a symbol of honor and status.
The Third Hokage was forced to confront a reform that would alter the future of Konoha.
"Lord Third, I heard that Danzo, the leader of the Anbu and representative of the Council of Elders Danzo, has disappeared." Fugaku Uchiha put on a very convincing act; his deadpan face, when made serious, made it hard to believe that he was a participant in all of this.
Hiruzen Sarutobi slightly raised his head, frowned. "I'm also investigating this matter. I wonder where the Uchiha Clan head got this information from?"
"My clansmen saw Danzo fleeing." Fugaku Uchiha's words revealed not a trace of his true feelings. "I also heard him say that Danzo seems to have betrayed Konoha and deserted."
"It's best not to make baseless accusations." Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't believe the Uchiha Clan head's words, but unfortunately, he had no evidence and couldn't really do anything about the two of them.
"That's true. After all, he's a high-ranking member of the Council of Elders. I have great respect and admiration for him, and I have no intention of insulting him in any way." Fugaku Uchiha's face was full of regret, and his performance was exceptionally convincing.
"Then I wonder what brings the Uchiha Clan leader here?" The Third Hokage didn't believe that the guy in front of him would come here to chat idly for no reason.
There must be some major conspiracy involved.
To his surprise, even Shibi Aburame, who had made significant contributions during the invasion of the Land of Earth, would come along and get involved, which made his expression very unpleasant.
"Well, it's nothing major. But what will happen to Konoha's Anbu if Danzo isn't around?"
"What's the meaning?"
"The Third Hokage should have realized this long ago: Konoha's Anbu is in a state of chaos. If no one manages it, Konoha's Anbu will surely be destroyed, which is not a good thing. Moreover, this is a crucial time for the Land of Earth's invasion."
"That's true!" It was obvious that the Third Hokage had also thought of this. Danzo's defection and the chaos within the Anbu were things he couldn't handle alone. And most importantly, the invasion of the Land of Earth could happen again at any moment.
Now, he no longer has time to properly consider matters concerning the Anbu.
Hearing Fugaku Uchiha's words and seeing the gaze cast towards him by Shibi Aburame...
The Third Hokage sighed, then couldn't help but smirk and mutter, "Looks like I'm getting old."
"Fugaku Uchiha, Shibi Aburame, I need your help to rebuild Konoha's Anbu and restore Anbu to its original state." Hiruzen Sarutobi relieved, raised his head and said earnestly, "I wonder if you'd be willing to help; after all, many hands make light work."
Hidden beneath the Third Hokage's serious demeanor was a bellyful of helplessness.
He had no way to stop these two families from succeeding in their plans; otherwise, it would trigger another round of infighting within Konoha, something neither he nor Konoha wanted to see.
The compromise of the Third Hokage was inevitable.
This was something that Fugaku Uchiha and Shibi Aburame had already understood.
At this moment, they could only admire Yang Xing's plan once again.
Hearing this from the Third Hokage, the two of them nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes, Lord Third."
It was early morning, inside a very ordinary yet cozy house.
"Hey Yang Xing, although I'm your Ninjutsu instructor and I'm happy to see you here," Minato Namikaze slammed his hands on the table, glaring at the kid sitting leisurely in front of him, and said angrily, "But why didn't you come so early in the morning? I can't get any sleep!"
Looking at the still dark sky outside the window, Minato Namikaze's face was extremely grim. He had been busy until the early hours of the morning for the past few days and hadn't slept well at all. As a result, he was very annoyed to be woken up as soon as he lay down in the morning.
The sun hasn't even risen yet, Minato Namikaze suspects that the brat might be doing this on purpose.
"Well, what does it have to do with anything?" Kushina chuckled, pouring Minato Namikaze a cup of tea in a very considerate manner. "Have some tea to calm down first. Maybe Yang Xing has something important to discuss with you."
Important things? How could that be? This brat can't possibly have anything good to say.
Minato Namikaze sat down, seemingly unconcerned, and said, "Alright, speak, what is it?"
