Yato Finds Trouble for Danzo

The last words Ryoma Aburame heard before losing consciousness were:

"Drown in Jini Taimi's genjutsu."

Only after seeing Ryoma Aburame fall under the genjutsu did Uchiha Yato relax his guard slightly.

Meanwhile, the three people standing in the street were still waiting stupidly for Uchiha Yato's return like frightened quail.

As long as Uchiha Yato had not returned, none of them dared make any rash moves. If Uchiha Yato found another excuse to cause them trouble, they would practically be courting death.

When Uchiha Yato returned, they saw him carrying a black-clothed figure in one hand as though he were a chick.

The three behaved obediently, though they were deeply confused as to why Uchiha Yato was holding a child.

Uchiha Yato then explained, "This child is from the Aburame Clan."

"He used insects to make the two of you agitated, which led to your fight and this entire farce."

"He should be one of Elder Danzo's Root subordinates, so I'll hand him over to the police department. Are you coming with me?"

The eyes of the two people who had fought instantly turned fierce.

It was because of Ryoma Aburame that the two of them had given Uchiha Yato an opportunity to mess with them.

Uchiha Lian asked, "So how should we deal with this guy next?"

"Do those two still need to prove their friendship?"

Hearing that it concerned their own interests, the two also looked at Uchiha Yato, hoping this farce could finally end.

Uchiha Yato said directly, "How could that work?"

"Didn't the two of them say themselves that they were going to stay at each other's homes? It wasn't like I forced them."

Both of them cursed wildly in their hearts.

Shameless. You clearly threatened us into saying it.

Uchiha Lian forced himself to say, "Understood. I'll supervise them."

"I'll leave the truth of the matter to you."

After giving them a final greeting, Uchiha Yato left the district with Ryoma Aburame.

After he left, Hyuga Boya and Sarutobi Tsuru went to Uchiha Lian and said, "Since he told you to supervise us, can't we just put on an act?"

"After six days, just tell him we stayed together. We'll back up your story."

Uchiha Lian said righteously, "Trust me, don't try any little tricks. And the two of you had better behave yourselves from now on."

"If I tell him you two weren't obedient and didn't do as he said, what do you think will happen?"

Uchiha Lian's words left the two of them somewhat embarrassed, and they looked at him with resentment.

Uchiha Lian patiently added, "Just bear with it. Guess what will happen to that brat from the Aburame Clan."

"If you want to know, I can go ask around for you right now."

Hearing Uchiha Lian's explanation, the two immediately recalled how the entire incident had begun and ended with that brat.

Before leaving, Uchiha Yato had deliberately used a hand signal unique to the Uchiha Clan to tell Uchiha Lian:

"Come find me later."

After leaving behind a shadow clone, Uchiha Lian followed in the direction Uchiha Yato had gone.

Inside the Konoha Police Department.

Uchiha Kei was feeling somewhat miserable.

Uchiha Yato had yet to release the genjutsu, and its effects had already begun to kick in. Ryoma Aburame was dancing a bizarre, maddening dance.

Uchiha Yato had even kindly found him a private room, allowing him to "happily" play by himself for a while.

He had set up a camera outside that would never lose power.

Uchiha Kei said, "So Danzo sent this brat to make a move in secret."

"And he even provoked both the Hyuga and Sarutobi clans."

Uchiha Yato nodded obediently.

Uchiha Kei asked in confusion, "Then why did you insist on messing with members of those two clans?"

"It's bound to hurt relations, and it'll be hard to explain to those two clans."

Uchiha Yato said, "Clan Head, you need to understand something."

"If we let this little scheme go so easily, Danzo will definitely use it a second and third time."

"Once the Uchiha Clan falls into that trap even once, everyone will despise us. Since that's the case, we might as well tear away this veil from the start."

After speaking, Uchiha Yato glanced at the interrogation room where Ryoma Aburame was being held and added:

"We have a witness here. If necessary, we can have the Yamanaka clan interrogate Ryoma Aburame."

Even after hearing Uchiha Yato's explanation and plans, Uchiha Kei did not understand.

"Then why not just deal with him directly? Why bring him to the police department?"

Uchiha Yato explained, "Although the Uchiha Clan forms the police department, we can't let everyone think the police department is merely a product of the Uchiha Clan."

"I want this matter made public. Not only will it slap Danzo in the face, but it will also let everyone know that the Uchiha Clan acts according to reason."

"Haven't all sorts of nobodies been saying that the Uchiha Clan enforces the law violently and doesn't follow the rules?"

"I'm going to slap them hard across the face!"

Uchiha Kei thought Uchiha Yato's words made sense.

But on second thought, Uchiha Yato himself did seem to have never broken any laws or rules despite all the things he did.

Uchiha Kei said, "Then next, I should summon the Aburame Clan Head and Elder Danzo Shimura, correct?"

Uchiha Yato nodded, indicating that was right.

Just as the two finished discussing matters, Uchiha Lian walked in.

Uchiha Yato said directly, "Find some trouble for those two later. Don't let them have too comfortable a time over these six days."

Uchiha Lian asked in great confusion:

"Why?"

Uchiha Yato explained, "I want those two to hate Danzo."

"Only by keeping Danzo Shimura busy will we have a chance to kill him."

Only then did Uchiha Lian realize that Uchiha Yato was playing a much larger game. He did not dare be careless as he asked, "Then what should I do?"

"It's simple. Just make them feel some pain over the next few days."

"Don't deliberately mention Danzo Shimura's name to them. As long as they suffer enough these few days, the first person they think of will be me, and the second will be Danzo Shimura."

"When the time comes, you only need to say that Uchiha Yato is not someone to provoke. All their anger will gradually shift onto Danzo Shimura."

After hearing Uchiha Yato's plan, Uchiha Lian nodded and immediately left to carry out his task.

What Uchiha Yato had not said was that these two were actually rather important.

Hyuga Boya was from the Hyuga main family. There was no Caged Bird seal on his forehead, and having someone with that kind of influence set his sights on Danzo would be enough to make him uncomfortable.

Sarutobi Tsuru was also Hiruzen Sarutobi's nephew and held a certain amount of influence within the Sarutobi clan.

As for whether this move would succeed?

Uchiha Yato did not care. It was merely an idle move, and it would be even better if it proved useful.

At the very least, it would leave Danzo Shimura with a bad impression before the other ninja clans.

The real bargaining chip was still Ryoma Aburame.

"If I don't make Danzo lose a piece of flesh today, I'll write the name Uchiha Yato backward."

Very soon, the first to arrive was the Aburame Clan Head.

After all, Danzo Shimura of Root was very busy.

Uchiha Yato immediately ran before the Aburame Clan Head and cried out, "Clan Head!"

"Ryoma Aburame tried to kill me!"

The moment Uchiha Kei saw this, a single thought flashed through his mind—Fuck!

That wasn't in the script you gave me. How can you be this shameless?

Even the Aburame Clan Head, who had always presented a cold and aloof image, was somewhat shaken.

Just as rumored, he is the most shameless person in the Uchiha Clan.

Uchiha Kei said, "Enough. Stop disgracing the Uchiha Clan."

He then looked at the Aburame Clan Head and said, "Please come inside. Discussing this outside may hurt everyone's dignity."

The three of them then entered the police chief's office to discuss the matter.
