Tsunade's home.
It was already late at night.
After chatting for a while,
the Great Elder, Setsuna, and Senju Chengshui left.
A great many things had happened that night.
Uchiha Gōka had reconstructed Nawaki's body.
He had killed four Root Organization ninja.
Unable to suppress the feelings in her heart, Tsunade directly laid her feelings bare and confessed to Karmic Fire.
That night, Uchiha Gōka and Tsunade officially became husband and wife.
When they went to sleep, there was no longer any distinction between them.
The next morning.
The Third Hokage's office.
Because four Root Organization ninja had been killed the previous night,
Shimura Danzō came to Hiruzen Sarutobi's office early in the morning to lodge a complaint.
Afraid he would not be able to persuade Hiruzen Sarutobi,
Shimura Danzō had specifically brought along Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura.
"Sarutobi!"
"That brat Uchiha Gōka actually dared to openly kill Root Organization ninja."
"And he did it right in front of four elite jonin."
"You have to deal with this."
Hiruzen Sarutobi took a puff from his pipe, his brow slightly furrowed.
"Danzo, I warned you."
"Do not monitor Uchiha Gōka."
"You bear responsibility for the situation as well."
Utatane Koharu stepped forward, her aged face taut.
"Hmph! Sarutobi."
"Even if the Root Organization ninja were monitoring Uchiha Gōka,"
"Uchiha Gōka had no right to kill them."
Mitokado Homura added,
"This matter has already spread throughout the village."
"He openly killed Root Organization ninja in Konoha, right in front of four elite ninja."
"This is a serious challenge to the authority of Konoha's upper ranks."
Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned and remained silent.
This matter seemed rather thorny.
If it was not handled properly, the impact on Konoha could be severe.
It might even further intensify the conflict between the Uchiha Clan
