The Third Hokage no longer intends to remain deadlocked with Danzo on this issue.

Once the Uchiha clan steps down, he has plenty of candidates to appoint to their positions.

The guard position is a powerful department, and it is given to the families who support them.

He felt more at ease, which could be considered a huge benefit to these people who supported him.

How could Danzo not understand the Third Hokage's thoughts?

If we discuss it later, wouldn't the Third Hokage have the final say?

He's unwilling to work hard and sacrifice for others.

"Third Hokage, this time Root must have a place in the security force. Otherwise, it would be better to let the Uchiha clan continue to serve in the security force."

The Third Hokage felt helpless upon hearing Danzo's words.

This guy wants to compete with him for power.

"It would allow you to secure a place within Root, but let's discuss that after we've destroyed the Uchiha Clan Guard. It's too early to discuss it now."

He now had to concede some ground because he also wanted to dismantle the Uchiha clan's guard force, turning them back into ordinary ninjas and stripping them of their privileged status.

This even seems like a good plan for him; once he takes control of the guards, his son can be released, right?

Danzo's reaction to this outcome.

Although I wasn't entirely satisfied, I did manage to secure some decent benefits.

It's clear now is not the time to fight the Third Hokage, but to suppress the Uchiha clan.

He spoke directly.

"Then I'll go back to the Root organization to make preparations and mobilize a large number of people to impeach the Uchiha clan."

"Don't forget to take over the two Jinchuriki. The Sharingan of the Uchiha clan will probably be able to control the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki very soon."

This Two-Tails Jinchuriki is his. He doesn't want anything to go wrong.

The Third Hokage naturally nodded.

"You don't need to remind me of that."

He himself felt that leaving the Two-Tails Jinchuriki in the enemy's clan territory was far too dangerous.

Although he asked Shisui if he could control the Jinchuriki of the Tailed Beasts, and the answer was no, who knows what kind of secret techniques this clan possesses?

Upon hearing this, Danzo pushed open the door and left the office.

The Third Hokage waited until Danzo had been gone for quite some time before sending an Anbu member to inform Kakashi and several other Anbu members. Only then did he go to the Uchiha clan's territory to receive the two Jinchuriki.

He made this arrangement because he was afraid that Danzo would resort to underhanded tactics.

This guy is highly untrustworthy and has a history of outrageous behavior. We must dispatch multiple members of the secret service to prevent a sudden robbery by Root.

Because he had promised this guy that if this guy acted arrogantly and directly tried to steal the two Jinchuriki, he probably wouldn't be able to turn against him, especially at this time.

After Kakashi, who was protecting Naruto, received a notification from the Anbu members, he left one of the Anbu members to watch over Naruto.

In case of an emergency, a signal flare can be fired directly.

He and three other members of the Anbu went directly to the main gate of the Uchiha clan's territory.

When they arrived at the gate, they did not barge in directly, but instead notified the guards at the gate.

"The Third Hokage ordered the four of us from the Anbu to come and receive the Tailed Beast, hoping that you would hand it over to us."

He still held the Uchiha clan in high regard, having just defeated the ninja army of Kumogakure.

Whether it's in terms of combat strength, the fact that the other side protected the village, or even the fact that the two tribes achieved victory together.

He admired them even more because he knew how unfavorable the circumstances under which these two tribes had won the war.

The Uchiha clan guards at the gate exchanged glances and answered Ryosuke's instructions.

"The Two-Tails Jinchuriki is under the care of our Uchiha clan and will not be handed over to your Anbu."

Kakashi frowned and said, puzzled.

"This is the Third Hokage's order. I'm afraid it's not something you few can decide. Please pass it on to the clan leader first."

One of the Uchiha clan members said somewhat impatiently.

"The orders have already been given from above, and even if the Hokage himself were to do it, he would absolutely not hand it over to you."

The other party was polite, so he didn't become too arrogant.

If it were a member of Root, he would have simply driven the other person away.

Why would I talk to the other person so much?

One of the Anbu members behind Kakashi was surprised to see that the Uchiha clan was ignoring even the Third Hokage's orders.

"Captain Kakashi, what should we do now?"

Kakashi could only say helplessly.

"Let's report this to the Hokage."

This is indeed a difficult matter. It seems the Uchiha clan is about to rise to power.

In the past, how could I have refused the Hokage's orders? Could it be that he wants to take the Jinchuriki of the Tailed Beasts for himself?

Soon after, the Third Hokage received a report from Kakashi and other members of the Anbu.

He then waved for Kakashi and the others to go back and continue their missions.

Only after they left did the Third Hokage's face contort in anger.

It's one thing to refuse Danzo's offer, after all, Danzo is just an advisor and elder, and his authority was granted by me, the Third Hokage.

As the Third Hokage, he was the most powerful person in Konoha Village, and all the ninjas had to obey his orders.

The matter of the Jinchuriki of the Tailed Beasts should naturally be under the control of the Third Hokage, and it is impossible for it to be under the control of a mere clan, even if that clan is the Uchiha clan.

This clearly shows they don't take him seriously.

The Uchiha clan is truly despicable.

If this continues, he, the Third Hokage, will truly be treated as a mere figurehead by the other side.

It seems we can't let them continue to be so arrogant. We must convene a meeting of clan leaders to properly suppress this clan.

If the many ninja clans stood on his side and demanded that the Uchiha clan hand over the Two-Tails Jinchuriki, the Third Hokage didn't believe they would dare not hand it over.

Chapter 119 Uchiha Shisui

A few days later, a young man slowly walked out of the gates of Konoha Village.

He wore a leaf-patterned headband and had short black hair.

The Uchiha clan's fan-shaped emblem is displayed on both shoulders.

Without a doubt, he was a member of the Uchiha clan, and he was none other than the famous Uchiha Shisui of Konoha Village, known as the Shisui of the Body Flicker.

Returning from the eastern border of the Land of Fire.

There are no more Kirigakure ninjas on the border, it seems they have given up their invasion of the Land of Fire.

So he was able to come back.

As he stepped through the gates of Konoha Village.

The ninja guarding the gate quickly let him through.

They knew of Uchiha Shisui's genius and wouldn't make things too difficult for him, especially since he was a member of the Hokage's Anbu.

After returning to the village, Shisui did not go back to the clan's territory. Instead, he went to the Hokage Building to report to the Third Hokage.

When he stepped into the Hokage's office, the Third Hokage was overjoyed to see him.

"Shisui, you're actually back. It seems the borders have stabilized by now."

"Thank you for your hard work. It is thanks to your protection that the Hidden Mist Village ninjas dared not make any further moves."

Shisui was the son of his old friend Uchiha Kagami, so he was naturally very close to him and was also relatively easy to control.

Compared to the unruly other members of the Uchiha clan, he was actually quite approachable.

There were no overly radical ideas.

It is very easy to control.

If he weren't from the Uchiha clan, he would have wanted to train him to be the next Hokage.

It's just a pity that he was too young and a member of the Uchiha clan.

Upon hearing the Third Hokage's words, Shisui did not become complacent; instead, he humbly replied.

"It's what I should do for the village."

The Third Hokage was very satisfied. This was a good Uchiha clan, who stayed in the harsh borderlands for so long for the sake of the village.

Shisui also had a high reputation within the Uchiha clan, and his return would be perfect for him to accept the Two-Tails Jinchuriki.

"Shisui, this time your Uchiha clan has achieved a great victory over the Kumogakure ninja army."

"They made a tremendous contribution to the peace of Konoha."
