Konoha: We, the Uchiha, are ready to give up!

"I am very sorry to have disturbed the Hokage."

"But this matter is too serious; the Hyuga clan must investigate it thoroughly."

"If we can't figure out the other party's methods, the Hyuga clan may lose the first time, but what we fear even more is that there will be a second, a third, or even the numerousth time."

"Therefore, please forgive me, Hokage!"

hiss!

Hiruzen Sarutobi and his group were stunned by Hiashi Hyuga's words.

　(bjfg) Goodness.

I got glared at by a whopping nine times – that's a big deal!

If these Byakugan were to fall into the hands of other ninja villages, it would not be a good thing for Konoha.

No wonder!

Before arriving, Hiruzen Sarutobi had heard from the Anbu that the entire Hyuga clan was acting like madmen, jumping around throughout Konoha.

Now he understands.

Losing nine pairs of white eyes in the process would probably drive me crazy.

"Hiruzen, this matter must be thoroughly investigated," Mitokado Homura said. "We must catch this person and interrogate him to find out how he infiltrated the area."

“Yes, Hiruzen, otherwise the other ninja clans would also be in danger.” Koharu Tatekichi quickly chimed in.

Hiruzen Sarutobi pondered for a moment.

After a long time.

He took a deep breath and immediately spoke.

"I see."

"I never imagined that someone could infiltrate Konoha and even steal nine pairs of Byakugan."

“The two elders are right, this matter must be thoroughly investigated.”

"I will have the Anbu cooperate with Hyuga and provide some necessary assistance."

"Oh, right, Japan's foot."

Do you have any leads on the Hyuga side?

Hiashi Hyuga breathed a sigh of relief.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's willingness to let the Anbu help is definitely a good thing for the Hyuga clan.

However, it's just a clue.

After pondering for a long time, he still shook his head.

"Absolutely not!"

"There are too many forces in the entire ninja world that have their eyes on the Byakugan."

"Anyone is possible!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi remained silent.

This is actually the most troublesome part.

If there are clues, then we can investigate in a targeted manner.

But if there's absolutely no clue, then there's a high probability that nothing will be found in the end.

But never mind.

Do your best and obey fate!

After shaking his head helplessly, Hiruzen Sarutobi took his leave.

Yes.

The fact that Hyuga lost his Byakugan is serious in some ways, but not so serious in others.

Compared to the battlefields of Iwagakure, Kirigakure, and Kumogakure, the affairs of the Hyuga clan are much smaller.

In fact, one could say that...

In Hiruzen Sarutobi's mind, nothing was as important as dealing with the Uchiha!

He has too many things to do every day, he doesn't have time to waste on such trivial matters.

It's already quite good that they're willing to let the secret service cooperate.

……

Time slowly passed.

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi had thought, a full week had passed, and the news of Hyuga losing his Byakugan was now widely circulated in Konoha.

But there was nothing we could do.

No matter how hard the Hyuga clan and the Anbu investigated, they couldn't find a single clue.

Furthermore, with the current war, the vast majority of the energy of all departments in Konoha is focused on the war.

and so.

The matter of Hyuga losing his Byakugan was ultimately left unresolved.

Konoha returned to calm once again.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

The land of grass, the bridge of the gods.

Inside a huge underground cave.

An elderly man with white hair, despite his age and fading appearance, still exuded a powerful aura.

He was covered in tubes, with one end connected to a giant golem behind him.

Yes.

The old man was none other than Madara Uchiha, and behind him was the Six Paths Demonic Statue.

Just at this time.

A mass of mud-like substance emerged from the ground and gradually formed a humanoid creature.

This is White Zetsu.

"Lord Madara, this is wonderful news!"

"I've found another Uchiha in Konoha. This person is much stronger than Obito. He's already awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan."

"As expected of Lord Madara's clan, Lord Madara, would you like to make some contact with them?"

"I've done another good deed, Lord Ban. May I watch you poop?"

Madara Uchiha opened his eyes.

A chilling glint flashed, and a ferocious smile appeared on his lips.

"Oh, the Mangekyou Sharingan, huh?" Madara Uchiha said with a look of disdain. "I really didn't expect that the Mangekyou Sharingan could be born in such a decaying village and among such a decaying clan."

"Let me see his file."

Bai Jue dared not be negligent.

Madara quickly handed over Uchiha Jin's information. After reading it quickly, Madara fell into deep thought.

After a long while, he finally spoke softly.

"An Uchiha like Nara, ha!"

"And to comment on Uchiha Jin, he doesn't seem like an Uchiha?"

"Shit!"

"Who says Uchiha can't use their brains?"

"But he really looks like Izuna!"

"But none of that matters anymore. As long as my plan succeeds, I will eventually see Izuna again!"

"There's no need to contact this Uchiha Jin. We can't fool such a smart guy!"

"Let's settle on Obito then, and proceed according to the original plan!"

Chapter Sixty-Five: After the Dark Division's investigation, Danzo is the prime suspect!

Konoha, Hokage Building.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sat in his office, with an ANBU member kneeling in front of him.

He was expressionless.
