This was the Third Hokage's only request. They hoped to use the relationship between the two of them to maintain the village's balance.
Both Uchiha Yuu and Nawaki had enormous family influence behind them.
Everyone present understood that the village had been founded jointly by two families. Having the two assist Minato Namikaze would also more quickly ease the tensions between elite clan shinobi and civilian shinobi, bringing the two sides closer together.
Uchiha Yuu had no objections to this. No matter what they said, once that opportunity came, he would leave the village without hesitation.
The only regrettable thing was that the Shadow Clone and the original body did not share memories. The one remaining in the village was a Shadow Clone, and it could not simply vanish, or there would be no way to explain it.
Their initial plans had been the same. As a Shadow Clone, Uchiha Yuu understood that the original body's plan had succeeded. Next came Akatsuki's best opportunity for rapid expansion. This attack had made everyone in the Shinobi World understand one thing: Akatsuki had the power to challenge the Five Great Shinobi Villages. It would also draw those truly powerful individuals into its ranks.
The Third Hokage's gaze fell on Uchiha Yuu. Unhurriedly, he took out a detailed file. It contained information on Akatsuki's members, along with a stack of the latest intelligence.
"He is Akatsuki's leader. At present, all we know is that his name is Qi."
"His strength is extremely terrifying. He has only shown his hand twice. The first was his fist, proving that he is an exceptionally powerful taijutsu shinobi. The other was his Fire Release. He can be called a Kage with no weaknesses. As for the investigation into him, we will have to wait for ANBU's report."
