While Far Yamanaka and Pakura were being intimate in the Waterfall Country, Danzo and the others came to Sandaime's house.
Sandaime sighed. He had already guessed that with the character of his old comrades, they would come looking for him. He even guessed the reason why they were looking for him.
Danzo's first sentence after sitting down was: "Hiruzen, I want to talk to you about the Uchiha Clan."
After hearing Danzo's words, Sandaime showed an expression of 'as expected', while Homura and Koharu also looked at Sandaime with a serious expression.
"Hiruzen, it seems that you know what's going on. So, let's not talk nonsense. What do you think about this matter?" Homura asked.
"Yes, there was indeed a problem with the Nine Tails that night. Later, I asked Ryo about it, and the answer I got was that the Nine Tails was controlled by someone."
Danzo coldly snorted: "Humph! Sure enough! Damn the Uchiha Clan! "
Sandaime frowned: "Danzo, this matter hasn't been investigated clearly. It's not good for you to say that!"
"What else is there to investigate? From the Warring States Period until today, only the Uchiha Clan can control the Nine Tails, and Far Yamanaka has Madara's eyes. If he can control the Nine Tails, it should be … "
"Enough, Danzo! This matter has absolutely nothing to do with Ryo. You can suspect the Uchiha, but you can't suspect Ryo! "Sandaime immediately interrupted Danzo.
"Hiruzen, don't be angry. Danzo is just making a reasonable guess. Compared to the Mangekyou Sharingan, we have all heard about it from Tobirama Sensei. "Homura quickly persuaded.
"Hiruzen, I hope you can take action and investigate the Uchiha Clan. This time, we lost the Fourth Hokage!" Koharu, who had been silent all this time, also expressed her attitude.
Sandaime nodded and said: "You can rest assured. I have already sent Anbu to investigate the Uchiha Clan."
"And the result? Did you get anything? "Homura asked after hearing that the Third Hokage had taken action.
"According to Anbu's investigation, there is no Mangekyou Sharingan in the Uchiha Clan. It should be impossible for an ordinary three tomoe to control the Nine Tails." Sandaime replied.
"Maybe they hid it well. Hiruzen, I want to recover my roots. If your Anbu can't find anything, just leave it to my people! "
Danzo took the opportunity to propose the restoration of the Root, and after a moment of hesitation, the Hokage agreed, but only after Hatsuki Shigeru agreed.
Danzo, on the other hand, didn't think much of it. With the Sandaime's approval, his roots can be rebuilt. What does it matter if Hatsuki Shigeru agrees or not?
After getting what he wanted, Danzo took the lead and left the Hokage's house, followed by Homura. Koharu stayed behind to chat with the Hokage about other things.
The next day, in the Hokage's office, Sandaime and Hatsuki Shigeru talked about Danzo's reorganization of Root.
"No! I don't agree! I won't allow someone who colludes with the Uminori to have so much power! " Hatsuki Shigeru immediately refused, and mentioned Far Yamanaka.
The Third and Danzo have been together for many years, and he always believed that Danzo was loyal to the Wood Leaf.
"Sakumo, you have to believe me! Danzo will never do anything to harm the Wood Leaf. I was thinking that if Root hadn't been disbanded, wouldn't our losses have been much smaller with their help on the night of the Nine Tails? So, Root's existence has its value. "
Hatsuki Shigeru was silent. What the Third said was an objective fact. Although Hatsuki Shigeru hated Danzo, his Root was much stronger than the Anbu.
Seeing Hatsuki Shigeru's attitude softened, the Third immediately continued: "Sakumo, you also know that the Nine Tails were controlled that night. Only the Uchiha can control the Nine Tails, and Ryo has the Mangekyou Sharingan. Some people in the village have already complained about him, so we need Root's power to check the Uchiha and find out the truth."
After a long silence, Hatsuki Shigeru said: "Sandaime sama, I've thought about it! I won't agree to reorganize Root! "
The Third had already said what he wanted to say, but Hatsuki Shigeru's attitude was still so firm. The Third sighed and turned to leave the office.
After learning that Hatsuki Shigeru wouldn't allow him to reorganize Root, Danzo didn't care.
Danzo hid Root's ninjas in the Anbu department of the Third, and the Third acquiesced to Danzo's actions.
With the Third's support, Root's ninjas were recalled in large numbers, and Root's reorganization was quickly completed.
The first task of Root's ninjas was to monitor the Uchiha Clan, and spread the news in the village that the Nine Tails was controlled by someone, and that the one controlling the Nine Tails was the Uchiha Clan.
Danzo's purpose of spreading the news was to cause conflict between the village and the Uchiha Clan, and prepare for the future eradication of the Uchiha.
Soon, the news spread throughout Wood Leaf, and the Uchiha Clan became the target of public criticism.
The arrogant Uchiha Clan never bothered to explain this issue, and this led the Wood Leaf villagers and ninjas to believe that the one controlling the Nine Tails was the Uchiha Clan.
The Wood Leaf villagers and ninjas were very dissatisfied with the Uchiha Clan, and some even began to deliberately disturb the Uchiha Security Department's mission.
Of course, the Uchiha Clan wouldn't let such people go, and they immediately took action and arrested the people who deliberately caused trouble.
This arrest was like poking a hornet's nest, and these villagers and ninjas were originally full of hatred for the Uchiha Clan.
After the Uchiha's arrest, the village ninjas became even more agitated, and many of them deliberately caused trouble for the Uchiha Clan.
The Uchiha Clan was the most powerful clan in Wood Leaf, and when did they suffer such humiliation? The Uchiha Security Department's ninjas began to frantically arrest these troublemakers.
In just a few days, the Wood Leaf Prison was overcrowded, and the villagers and ninjas had to admit defeat because of the Uchiha Clan's strength.
However, these people's hatred for the Uchiha Clan was deeply buried in their hearts, and they believed that the Uchiha Clan's arrest was a sign of a guilty conscience.
In the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Fugaku called a meeting of the Uchiha Clan's higher-ups. During the meeting, Fugaku made a special trip to explain the current situation of the Uchiha Clan.
However, the other higher-ups of the Uchiha Clan didn't care at all, and in their view, it was the foolish villagers and ninjas who were fooling around.
The Security Department only needed to keep arresting people and let them understand that the Uchiha Clan was not something they could offend.
Fugaku looked at the attitude of his clansmen and sighed, and announced the end of the meeting.
"Do you think that by arresting the troublemaking villagers and ninjas, you can make them retreat? This will only put the Uchiha Clan in a desperate situation! "Fugaku muttered to himself.
