The people from Hidden Cloud had come to Konoha this time without informing the Third Hokage.
And after arriving at the Uchiha compound, they had left directly without staying long.
Clearly, Hidden Cloud and the Uchiha had discussed something they did not want the Third Hokage to know about.
Hidden Cloud's departure had been easy enough.
But the Third Hokage was now breaking out in a cold sweat.
Especially since Uchiha Zhengye, an Uchiha who never let himself suffer a loss, had just taken a loss because of Danzo.
No one dared guess what he might do next.
In the Hokage's office, the Third Hokage smoked with a grim expression.
He looked at Nara Luhe. "Luhe, I'll have to trouble you to make a trip to the Uchiha."
"No matter what grievances the Uchiha have, we can discuss them behind closed doors."
"But if they bring outsiders from another village into this, that would cross the bottom line."
Although Luhe was intelligent, even he could not guess what Zhengye intended to do. He truly feared that Zhengye might act on impulse, cooperate with Hidden Cloud, and directly betray Konoha.
Perhaps "betray" was not quite the right word. If the Uchiha truly joined forces with Hidden Cloud—
A military coup was entirely possible.
As for the outcome, all that could be said was that it would definitely claim more lives than the Nine-Tails Attack.
As the representative of Konoha's other ninja clans, Luhe naturally could not allow such a thing to happen.
"Rest assured, Lord Hokage. I understand the gravity of this. I'll go at once."
After giving a bow, Luhe immediately headed for the Uchiha compound.
The Third Hokage felt an incessant twitch between his brows. He immediately ordered, "Go. Find Jiraiya."
Uchiha compound.
Training ground.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
