Compared to the Hyuga and the Uchiha, the Sarutobi Clan didn't have any powerful Kekkei Genkai, and it was thanks to the 3rd that they were able to achieve what they have today.
During the reign of the 3rd, the other clans treated the Sarutobi Clan with respect, and the Sarutobi Clan took this opportunity to cultivate a large number of outstanding clansmen.
But since the retirement of the 3rd, the growth of the Sarutobi Clan slowed down a lot.
Sarutobi Clan's Patriarch Heizo was very anxious about this, and his dream was to make the Sarutobi Clan replace the Uchiha and Hyuga as the number one clan in the Wood Leaf Clan.
Unfortunately, Heizo didn't find the opportunity to make the Sarutobi Clan strong again.
So when he heard that the Hokage intended to let other clans take over the security department, Heizo was very excited.
After confirming that the Uchiha Clan was indeed short of manpower, Heizo immediately summoned the Sarutobi Clan.
The Sarutobi Clan had nearly a hundred Jonins, much more than the Ino-Shika-Cho clans, and since this was a matter of great importance, Heizo didn't hide anything and directly explained the situation.
After asking about the specific details, the Sarutobi Clan members said that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and they couldn't miss it.
Most of them agreed, and at this time, a woman who had been silent stood up and said: "Patriarch, I don't think this matter is that simple."
The Sarutobi Clan members heard her words and instantly became quiet. The woman who spoke was the 3rd's daughter-in-law, and also the 3rd's personal guard, Anbu.
After the retirement of the Third Hokage, he also secretly retired and no longer served as the Third Hokage's bodyguard.
Now that she had retracted her sharp edge, she was just an ordinary woman, but no one present dared to ignore her opinion.
"Anbu sama, I don't know what you think?" One of the Sarutobi Clan Jonins asked carefully.
"I think it's better to be cautious about this matter, it may be a test by the Hokage. The Sarutobi Clan is strong enough now, and there's no need to control the security department.
Of course, this is just my opinion, if Patriarch doesn't agree, then just pretend you didn't hear it. "After saying that, she got up and left the room.
After Anbu left, the room was noisy again, but this time the topic of discussion was whether to intervene in the security department or not.
"Pa! That's enough! "Hiranzo slammed the table, and the clansmen quieted down.
"Our clan has to get a share of the loot from the security department. The Uchiha Clan has suffered a great change, and there are less than thirty percent of our clan members left. The Uchiha Clan is at its weakest right now.
Moreover, the Uchiha Clan is still around and has not been exterminated. With them as a shield, we can take down the Security Department without any losses.
Also, don't forget about Hyuga and Ino-Shika-Cho, even if we don't do anything, do you think they will? Don't forget, the Hyuga Clan's Byakugan and Yamanaka Clan's Psychic Power are more suitable than ours.
Once they gain control of the security department, our Yuan Fei Clan will be completely suppressed, and we will never be able to rise again. "
Sarutobi Heizo's words made the doubtful clansmen instantly determined.
At the same time, the Hyuga Clan also had a similar discussion.
The grudges between the Hyuga Clan and the Uchiha Clan went from the war for resources during the Warring States Period to the struggle for the number one clan in the Wood Leaf Clan. Both clans also have Dojutsu Kekkei Genkai, so the two clans hate each other.
In addition to Danzo and the others, the one who wants the Uchiha Clan to be exterminated the most is undoubtedly the Hyuga Clan. Now that they have the opportunity to get control of the security department and further weaken the Uchiha Clan, the Hyuga clansmen are very excited.
Therefore, the Hyuga Clan will not give up the power of the security department. On one hand, it is to fight against the Uchiha Clan, and on the other hand, it is to consolidate the Hyuga Clan's position as the number one clan in the Wood Leaf Clan.
At the same time, the Hyuga Clan is also worried about the involvement of the Sarutobi Clan and the Ino-Shika-Cho Clan.
"Hizashi, you take some clansmen to monitor the Sarutobi Clan, and the Ino-Shika-Cho Clan, focus on the Akimichi Clan. If they make any moves, come back and inform me immediately. "
"Yes! Patriarch! "
"Wait!" Just as Hizashi was about to move, the Hyuga Clan Elder stopped him. "Hiashi, why don't you let Hizashi monitor the Yamanaka Clan?"
"Elder, the Yamanaka Clan's spiritual power is very strong, and it is very likely that they will be discovered. The Ino-Shika-Cho Clan is connected, and it is the same no matter which one we monitor."
"Humph! Hiashi, do you mean that our Byakugan Clan's perception is not as good as theirs? "
Hiashi sighed helplessly. "Of course, we are not afraid of the ordinary Yamanaka Clan, but the problem is Far Yamanaka!"
Hearing the name Far Yamanaka, the Hyuga Clan Elder's face stiffened, and he didn't say anything more. Hiashi took the opportunity and almost nodded. Hizashi immediately left the meeting room and began to act.
The next morning, Far Yamanaka came to the Hokage's office and told him about the Ino-Shika-Cho Clan's fate.
Hatsuki Shigeru smiled. "Sure enough, we can't hide it from Shikaku, this guy is too smart!"
"Yes! But just because we don't intervene doesn't mean that the other two clans will. Last night, I sensed that the Hyuga Clan has begun to send people to monitor the Sarutobi and Akimichi Clan. "
Hatsuki Shigeru nodded. "It seems that our 'fish' has taken the bait!"
"Well, the next step is to see who is more 'generous', the Hyuga Clan or the Sarutobi Clan."
In the next few days, the undercurrent in Wood Leaf Village was surging. Hatsuki Shigeru's Anbu was still pretending to be gangsters to disturb the security of the village, and the Uchiha Clan continued to show that they were powerless.
The Hyuga Clan and the Sarutobi Clan had begun to fight. In order not to arouse suspicion, the Ino-Shika-Cho Clan also pretended to be interested in taking over part of the security department.
After another week, Hatsuki Shigeru saw that the time was right, and arranged the Anbu to make a large-scale mess. The villagers sent a representative to Hatsuki Shigeru for the second time.
Hatsuki Shigeru was "forced" to convene the village's top leaders and the Uchiha Clan for a meeting.
In the meeting room, Hyuga Hizashi and Sarutobi Heizo sat face to face, and the sparks in their eyes were flying.
Hatsuki Shigeru looked at Far Yamanaka, and then looked at Uchiha Fugaku sitting at the back. Far Yamanaka looked indifferent, but Fugaku looked particularly panicked.
"Ahem!" Hatsuki Shigeru's light cough attracted everyone's attention.
"Elders, Clan Leader! The reason for calling everyone here today, I think everyone is clear! Everyone, speak freely! "Hatsuki Shigeru said.
The people below looked at each other, and no one wanted to be the first to speak. Seeing the atmosphere getting more and more serious, Hiashi was the first to stand up.
