Kazemori Masaki assigned everyone their tasks. Yamanaka Takuma and Inuzuka Shigeru would investigate possible spies within the Land of Demons. Since this involved another country's government, Masaki could not simply launch a manhunt, but with the Shrine Maiden's help, they could narrow down the suspects and make the investigation easier.

But if their psychological problems could be identified and treated, perhaps the Uchiha Clan's members could become more even-tempered. Sasuke Uchiha's example showed that, although the Sharingan certainly had a powerful influence, it was not impossible to guide someone back onto the
