"I've heard that a lot has happened here recently."

"Yes, sir, I'll take you there right away!!"

Shimura Yamashita's eyes lit up with joy.

They were currently troubled about how to persuade the Second Elder to relinquish his position as acting clan leader.

"Bang bang bang~"

"Enter."

"Down the mountain? There's more..."

Shimura Tano was sitting in his usual office, contemplating how he should proceed.

After all, the opportunity was practically handed to him; if he still couldn't seize it, he'd really have something wrong with his head.

After discovering the familiar black-robed figure behind Shimura Yamashita.

He immediately stood up from his seat and looked at Gu Mu with some confusion.

"it's me."

After receiving an affirmative answer, Shimura Tano immediately stood up from his seat and approached Furuki with a respectful expression.

"Sir, is there any new order?"

Shimura Tano's expression was serious.

Little did he know that several of his crucial decisions had been made with the secret assistance of this mysterious figure.

For example, sending a letter to the Hyuga clan successfully diverted the Hokage's attention, causing him to start paying attention to the Hyuga clan.

And not long ago, there was the prevention of the Grand Elder's assassination attempt.

This earned him the trust of the Grand Elder, who even allowed him to manage clan affairs.

"Second Elder, what's the feedback from over there?"

"There was no reaction; they seemed willing to let me take over the management of clan affairs."

"And you, how many people in your clan are willing to follow you?"

Shimura Tano pondered for a moment and then slowly spoke:

"According to some instructions from the adults, most people who had deep-seated hatred and grudges during the war were willing to follow me."

"Secondly, there are some ninjas from the Elder's faction."

"Based on my estimation, about two-thirds of the ninjas in the clan support my appointment as acting clan leader."

"Okay, let's leave it at that for now. Let me take a look at the list of enemies of the Uchiha clan that I asked you to prepare earlier."

Shimura Tano's eyes lit up with joy upon hearing Koki's words.

He immediately pulled out a list of enemies that he had prepared beforehand from his pocket.

"Two Jonin?"

Feeling the questioning look in Koki's eyes, Shimura Tano gave an awkward smile: "There's nothing I can do, sir. A few years ago, those people were just like me, Chunin. But the Uchiha clan is born for battle."

"After the last Uchiha attack, I discovered that my enemy has grown into a Jonin."

"Hmm, and also, I asked you to investigate the assassination attempts that the Uchiha clan suffered during that period. Do you have any leads?"

Gu Mu spoke about what he cared about most.

"We did investigate, and it turns out there are others targeting the Uchiha clan besides us."

"They seem to be from the Hyuga clan."

"Hyuga? Who exactly is he?"

Shimura Tano looked curious: "I don't know yet. I heard it from the patrolling brothers. Sir, is there a problem?"

"As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Just leave it at that for now and build up your prestige within the clan."

"As for the Second Elder, he definitely won't show his face during this period."

Koki did not expect that Shimura Tano could completely control the Shimura clan.

After all, you can't see into someone's heart, and what will happen in the future is still unknown.

However, regarding the Hyuga clan, there are those who were able to infiltrate the Uchiha clan to carry out assassinations and escape unscathed.

Their strength is definitely that of a Jonin, or a Chunin with Jonin-level strength.

After confirming an important piece of information.

Koki abandoned his idea of ​​scaring the second elder of the Shimura clan, as the Hokage's attention was now mainly focused on the Uchiha and Hyuga clans.

If another accident occurs here.

It is estimated that the Shimura family will also receive significant attention.

No wonder Tobirama Senju said he was short of people.

With both the Uchiha and Hyuga clans under surveillance, it's no wonder they're not short of talent.

Back on the roof of the courtyard, Koki clearly noticed that Uchiha Shizumi was not asleep.

She simply stayed quietly in her room, like a well-behaved cat, as if the noise of the world had nothing to do with her.

"You little brat, sneaking into my room again, are you trying to ambush me at night?"

The ancient tree leaped in through the window.

"There's nothing we can do. The so-called locks are useless against ninjas."

Uchiha Shizuru made a helpless expression.

"Going to sleep now, I have to get up early tomorrow, goodnight~"

Seeing that Gu Mu had returned safely, Uchiha Shizuru breathed a sigh of relief, then nodded expressionlessly, looking as aloof as a fairy untouched by worldly affairs, before leaving and returning to the room next door.

"OK, good night."

Gu Mu stared at the closed wooden door, slightly lost in thought. The system's echo lingered in his mind like a resounding melody, refusing to dissipate for a long time.

[Uchiha Shizuru is feeling relaxed... reaping 300 emotional points]

Chapter 37 Rules of the Dark Division

The next day, Gu Mu got up early as usual.

He kept saying he wanted to sleep in, but when he learned that Uchiha Shizumi had also traveled here...

The ancient tree has never slept more than once.

He must become stronger until he can ignore the pressure from the Senju and Uchiha clans and successfully marry Uchiha Shizumi.

"Little lazy boy, get up."

As Gu Mu arrived at the door of Uchiha Shizuru's room, he could faintly hear the sparse sounds of clothes being put on inside.

"Jing Shui, you're not in trouble, are you? Damn it, I'm going to break down the door!"

Gu Mu had a mischievous smile on his face.

After saying that, he placed his hand on the doorknob.

Before the door was even opened, it opened on its own. Uchiha Shizumi still had her hair tied in a high ponytail, and she wore a fox mask on her forehead. Her figure was beginning to take shape under her black bodysuit.

She glanced at Gu Mu, who was about to do something naughty, with a foxy look in her eyes, and said with a resentful expression, "Tsk~ you pervert."

"Ahem, could you look at me a few more times like this, preferably with a hint of disgust on your face? I swear, I'm definitely not a pervert."

Gu Mu stretched out his hand and swore, his expression expectant.

"You're hopeless. Let's go report for duty first. Don't be late on your first day."

Uchiha Shizuru sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation, but in order to satisfy his request, he still gave him a disdainful look in the end.

"Ahem, let's go first."

"But from now on you should call me Captain Mu. It's a code name within the Dark Division."

"What about you?"

"As for me, I'll call myself Water."

Uchiha Shizumi stroked her chin, unable to think of a good code name for a moment.

Outside.

The sky was still a pale white, and the staff in the dark started work very early, so the sky was still barely light.

In addition, both Koki and Uchiha Shizumi were wearing masks.

Therefore, virtually no one will recognize their identities.

Following the instructions in the manual, the two quickly arrived at the entrance to the Dark Side base.

For the sake of secrecy, the secret service's usual communication base is located underground.

And it's right below the Hokage Building.
