The result was that the Uchiha clan regained partial control over the Anbu.
This authority carried even more weight than it had when Konoha had first been founded. After all, although the Anbu had originally belonged to the Uchiha clan, they had in practice been completely subject to the Hokage's orders.
The current situation was entirely different. The Anbu had been fractured into separate factions, and even the Hokage controlled only a portion of them. The entire Anbu was divided into twelve squads, each overseen by one of three deputy commanders. Now, the Hokage had agreed to add four more squads. These four squads would be completely controlled by the Uchiha clan, which would select one person from among its members to become the fourth deputy commander.
This compromise, in the form of expanding the Anbu, fundamentally provided the Uchiha clan with a tremendous opportunity to gradually take over the Anbu!
