As the night passed, no one knew that Uchiha Huayue had secretly completed a near-moon journey during that night.
As dawn broke, after several days of deep thought in his calligraphy room, Sarutobi Hiruzen, having racked his brains, finally left his cozy little house.
After many years, the Konoha F4 reunited. Apart from Danzo, whose face looked unusually grim, the other two Hokage Advisor seemed quite relaxed.
Sarutobi Hiruzen around, secretly making up his mind that he would force the others to agree no matter what, whether it was for his promise to Kushina or for the future of Little Naruto and the village.
"Ahem, the main reason I invited you all here today is to discuss Uzumaki Naruto's enrollment in school in a while."
The three Hokage Advisor exchanged glances, each seeing the wariness and suspicion in the other's eyes. After exchanging a signal, Mitokado Homura coughed twice.
" Sarutobi, the enrollment of Jinchūriki is different from that of other children. If they go berserk at the Ninja Academy, the consequences can be very serious."
With a direct and incisive approach, pointing directly to the core issues and hidden concerns, Mitokado Homura subtly persuaded Sarutobi Hiruzen, pouring cold water on his lofty ambitions.
" Uzumaki Naruto is not a pure bloodline inheritor of the Uzumaki Clan, and he does not have the ability to suppress the Nine-Tailed Fox like Kushina. Even if he is to be taught, it would be better to have someone tutor him one-on-one."
Utatane Koharu picked up the conversation, and Danzo, seizing the opportunity to add insult to injury.
"In my opinion, how about letting the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki enter Root? This way, the Jinchūriki's emotions will be suppressed, and the Nine-Tails won't have an opportunity to take advantage of any emotional outbursts."
These former friends, one after another, made Sarutobi Hiruzen a chill in his heart, but their words were not without reason.
"Although Naruto is not a member of the Uzumaki Clan, he inherited Kushina's bloodline and has the potential to suppress the Nine-Tailed Fox."
"Moreover, only when he is surrounded by children his own age can Naruto realize that he is no different from other children."
The room was filled with smoke and silent. Just as the atmosphere became tense, a rapid knocking sounded on the door, and the Anbu squad leader hurried in, whispering something to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"What! You're telling the truth? That mother and daughter really are..."
Realizing he had misspoke, Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed twice. The Hokage Advisor looked at him strangely, and only after the Anbu squad leader left did they silently wait for Sarutobi to give an explanation.
"Just now, according to the Anbu's investigation and the test results from Konoha Hospital, the mother and daughter that Uchiha Huayue brought back several months ago are of the Uzumaki Clan blood."
These words caused a huge stir, and Danzo's face Danzo ashen as he muttered to himself.
"Having the Mangekyō Sharingan wasn't enough; they've also found another way to suppress the Nine-Tails. The Uchiha Clan's wolfish ambitions show they have no regard for Konoha!"
Utatane Koharu's face was even more gloomy. In recent years, the Uchiha Clan's attitude towards the village has become increasingly arrogant.
The reason for this is that there is a powerful figure comparable to the Uchiha Clan Head since the founding of Konoha, which has led to the Uchiha Clan now basically obeying orders but not procuring them.
"It was no easy feat to save two members of the Uzumaki Clan. In a chaotic world, it is extremely difficult to survive even if one loses their own country's ninjas and civilians."
Sarutobi Hiruzen's words are not untrue. Even in Konoha, there are orphans who have lost their parents and are struggling in Orphanage.
What's more, they are a mother and daughter who have been displaced and lost their country and family. Why did they fall into the hands of Uchiha Huayue?
"Regarding the surviving bloodline of the Uzumaki Clan, I will negotiate with Uchiha Huayue as soon as possible. The key issue now is Little Naruto's enrollment in school."
"I heard that Uchiha Huayue is currently working at the Ninja Academy. Sending the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki to the Ninja Academy would be like handing the Tailed Beast over to the Uchiha for nothing, wouldn't it?"
Danzo, who had already heard about this information, chose to reveal it at this time, which strengthened the opposition of the other two Hokage Advisor.
" The Uchiha Clan are, after all, comrades of the village. If Uchiha Huayue had any intention of rebelling, he would have tried to control the Tailed Beast with his Sharingan when he captured the Two-Tails, and would not have given Konoha the opportunity to wait until now."
"Human hearts are the most unpredictable thing. Can you guarantee that the Uchiha Clan will never betray Konoha? Don't forget the actions of the Uchiha Clan during the Second Hokage's era."
The two sides were on the verge of conflict, and both sides had valid points. Just as the two Hokage Advisor were feeling helpless, several members of the Anbu quietly appeared.
" The Third Hokage, along with members of the Konoha Medical Squad in charge of testing, clashed with the Uchiha Clan."
With a furrowed brow, Hiruzen Sarutobi Hiruzen on incredulously. How could the Uchiha possibly clash with the Konoha Medical Squad?
The Third Hokage hurriedly stood up, his old face darkening, and took the lead in leaving the conference room.
"I knew it. The Uchiha's pride and arrogance are ingrained in their bones, and no matter how many years pass, they will never change. The more outstanding the Uchiha, the greater their character flaws."
Danzo's tone was somber. Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura were well aware of his attitude towards the Uchiha.
"Flaws represent weaknesses, so what are Uchiha Huayue's weaknesses? To solve the Uchiha problem, we must start with the strongest Uchiha."
"Just like Sarutobi, who was the first to rush out and take responsibility on the day of the Nine-Tails' attack, if you want to stand in the sunlight, you should at least solve the village's problems first, Danzo."
Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu left the meeting room, Danzo's expression immediately turned extremely gloomy. He clearly realized that his actions three years ago had aroused the dissatisfaction of these two companions.
"Hmph, Uchiha Huayue, sooner or later he will follow in the footsteps of the Uchiha Madara. It's a pity that Kagami fell into the hands of the weak Sarutobi. He will not achieve anything great in the future."
Konoha, the border of the Uchiha Clan.
Several members of the Konoha Medical Squad looked troubled, but several members of the Konoha Military Police Force did not stop.
The leader, Uchiha Yaeko, looked embarrassed. He glanced at the medical team members, his veins bulging, and angrily rebuked them.
"What are you saying? What do you mean the Uchiha Clan only dares to prey on the weak and powerless, and is just a bunch of cowardly bullies!"
"Did I say something wrong? Your Konoha Military Police Force is just a bunch of bullies who only dare to pick on the weak and fear the strong. When any prestigious Konoha family makes a mistake, you never arrest them or put them in jail!"
Seeing the crowd pointing and whispering, and the discussion growing louder, Uchiha Yaeko's eyes changed, and he glared at them fiercely with a crimson glint in them.
"You dare to make unauthorized comments about the Uchiha and other prestigious clans of Konoha? You should go to jail and reflect on your actions. The Uchiha Clan is not a place you can speak of so casually."
"Stop! What are you doing?"
The Third Hokage arrived hastily with several Anbu, his face unusually grim.
