The Konoha high-level officials were also aware of the series of phenomena caused by Shisui.
Just three days after Shisui started, Danzo approached the Sandaime Hokage.
"Huruzen, are you planning to just watch the Uchiha's actions?"
The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen had no expression and just glanced at Danzo.
Looking at the indifferent Third Hokage, Danzo said angrily, "Uchiha Tomoki visits the big and small families of Konoha every day. Even Ino-Shika-Chou has cooperated with the Uchiha clan. His shadow clones take Uchiha Shisui to the village every day to deceive the villagers. Many villagers have been deceived and no longer hostile to the Uchiha clan."
After listening to this, the Third Hokage said, "Isn't this a good thing? The Uchiha clan can actively integrate into Konoha, which is a good thing for the village."
Danzo looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen in disbelief, "We've invested so much over the years, and it's time to reap the rewards. Are you willing to let go? That's the power of the Sharingan."
"That's enough, Danzo. As long as the Uchiha clan is willing to integrate into Konoha, the Sharingan will be the strength of Konoha. We are not going to destroy the Uchiha clan, but to control the Uchiha clan. We just need to see the results. Put away your little thoughts."
"Huruzen, I don't believe you can't see the ambition of that brat Uchiha Tomoki. The Uchiha clan is evil and you can't control it!"
"That's the Godaime's business. We just need to do our own thing."
Sarutobi Hiruzen was hostile to the Uchiha clan and deliberately allowed Danzo to suppress the Uchiha clan because the Uchiha clan was a solitary clan, but at the same time it was the most powerful ninja clan in Konoha. If left alone, it would sooner or later cause great harm to Konoha.
Tomoki's series of actions made Sarutobi Hiruzen see the opportunity for the village to peacefully accept the Uchiha clan. Moreover, after so many years of suppression, the Uchiha clan's strength has greatly declined, so Sarutobi Hiruzen chose to wait and see.
Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that years of prejudice were not so easy to eliminate. By the time the Uchiha clan was completely integrated into the village, he should be gone. By then, the fifth generation would have to deal with the Uchiha clan's problems.
He only needs to ensure the stability of Konoha now, so he is not enthusiastic about Danzo's suggestion. As for the fact that Danzo has been the main force against Uchiha for many years, he doesn't mind giving him up now.
Now that the Root is increasingly out of control, let Danzo test the power of the Uchiha alone.
"Huruzen! You've become soft-hearted again. Sooner or later, Konoha will be destroyed by your cowardice!"
"That's enough, Danzo, I am the Hokage, the Sandaime Hokage of Konoha Village, you are overstepping your bounds!"
"Huruzen, you're going to regret this!"
After Danzo returned to the Root, he was furious at Hiruzen's unreliability.
As expected, Hiruzen, only I can protect Konoha!
Danzo also began his own arrangements.
--------
Tomoki, who had just returned home from get off work, was very surprised to see Naruto and Sasuke.
I have to say that Naruto and Sasuke were both very cute when they were young, but Naruto looked very reserved.
Youshu seemed to be in a lot of trouble. He had been causing trouble like crazy during this period and was very careful not to let the higher-ups catch him.
But this fresh and hot Jinchūriki who had just been out of the factory for 6 years ran to his home and told people that he had nothing to do with him. He felt that he himself did not believe it.
He knew about Xia Li and Naruto, but he did not interfere, knowing that Naruto's personality would gradually become closer to Ashura because of Ashura's chakra.
It is good for Xia Li that he has a good relationship with Naruto. After all, Naruto will be stronger when he grows up than he is now. Xia Li did not have any calculations in getting to know Naruto. It was purely Xia Li's own opportunity.
Tomoki has always treated his family sincerely. Although he is also a sister-con, he will not manipulate Kari's future like Itachi, who is a brother-con.
Naruto, who was originally warmly received by Takuma and Nami, became cautious after seeing that Kari's brother became silent when he saw him.
Naruto put the fried chicken leg he had taken a bite of back into the plate. Although it was the first time he had eaten such delicious food, it was even better than the Ichiraku Ramen he had been craving for.
At this time, Naruto was not affected too much by Ashura's chakra and was not as insensitive as he would be later. Moreover, he was very sensitive because he had been bullied and hated since he was a child.
From Xia Li and Sasuke, I roughly learned that Tomoki held a very important position in this family. Tomoki saw that his slight frown was keenly captured by Naruto.
"It seems that Xia Li's brother doesn't like me either."
Naruto became worried about his relationship with Xia Li.
Seeing his brother standing there motionless after entering the room, Xia Li ran to him and dragged him to the dining table. "Brother, what are you doing standing there like an idiot?"
Youshu, who was being dragged by Xia Li, came back to his senses, shook his head, and dispelled the random thoughts in his mind.
No matter what happened, he would take it on, just like dealing with the enemy with his troops and blocking the water with earth. The most difficult time for Uchiha was over.
In the final analysis, the ninja world is based on strength. In the current Konoha, as long as Emperor Kai does not make a move, Tomoki can humbly say that he is second to none, and no one dares to say that he is first.
"It seems that these days, even though I'm used to scheming against the old monsters, I've become a little indecisive."
Youshu reflected in his heart.
After taking a seat, Youshu looked at Naruto and asked, "Xia Li, is this your new friend?"
"Of course, this is Naruto. Brother won't forget what we said at the beginning of the school year." Xia Li said, pulling Naruto.
"No, Xia Li, how about I teach you the Fireball starting tomorrow night?"
"Is this the ninjutsu that Uncle Xuan Yue used to fight those bad guys last time?" Xia Li asked excitedly.
"Of course, that's a very powerful fire escape technique."
"Ah! Brother, don't worry, I will make more friends and bring them back."
"Well, Xia Li, next time you bring friends over, remember to tell me in advance. I haven't prepared any gifts yet. So, Xia Li, go to my room and take down the third scroll from the right on top of the bed."
"Okay, brother." Xia Li hurried to Youshu's room.
And Youshu was looking at Naruto at this time, "Naruto, right, didn't Kari beat you up and force you to be friends with him?"
"No, I'm Boss Xia Li's brother. Boss Xia Li helped me drive them away when they bullied me. Boss Xia Li is very good to me."
Naruto answered while looking at Tomoki timidly, always keeping an eye on Tomoki's expression.
Looking at Naruto in front of him, he looked no different from those corporate veterans in his previous life who always observed the boss's words and expressions, and his thin body was very inconsistent with his age.
Tomoki also sighed in his heart, Sarutobi Hiruzen, look at what sins you have committed. Such a young child has learned to read people's faces.
So Youshu smiled and gently rubbed Naruto's golden hair, "That's good, you should get along well with Xia Li, Xia Li sometimes has a bad temper."
"Brother, you're saying bad things about me again, Naruto, don't listen to him."
As he said this, he angrily threw the scroll in his hand towards Youshu.
After Youshu took it lightly, he winked at Naruto and said, "See, Naruto."
Naruto watched the interaction between the brother and sister with great envy. During the interaction just now, Naruto found that Tomoki also had no ill will towards him, so he was no longer restrained and laughed happily.
"Naruto, you actually dare to laugh, do you even take me, the boss, seriously?"
"Ah! No, Boss Charlie, I'm not laughing at you."
Sasuke, who had been quiet and well-mannered, smiled happily when he saw Naruto being humiliated.
Takuma and Mina watched the fun among the others with a smile on their faces the whole time.
