The two exchanged a glance. Sarutobi Hiruzen narrowed his eyes slightly, nodded silently in acknowledgment, and then strode away.

Shiranui Sou's eyes turned slightly cold. She didn't look at the three figures leaving, as her Observation Haki had already reflected everything.

"It seems that while preparing for Lord Mito's funeral, other small matters have not stopped either."

Shiranui Sou sneered inwardly.

In the past few days, he has continued to activate his Observation Haki.

After a period of training, and with the help of Mr. Issho's insights, his Observation Haki range became wider and wider, enough to cover half of Konoha.

In this way, you can discover many interesting things.

For example... Shimura Danzo, who should have been imprisoned and interrogated in Konoha Prison, appeared in another place at this moment.

And, Captain Sarutobi, who was being severely punished by Hiruzen Sarutobi, was now strolling leisurely through the streets of Konoha with a woman.

"Sarutobi Hiruzen is clearly not going to deal with these two."

"He couldn't possibly be unaware that if he wanted to protect these two people, a conflict with me would be inevitable."

"So, you mean they're already preparing to deal with me?"

Shiranui Sho was also a little curious about what kind of moves Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo and others would use.

……

A few days later, a piece of news ignited the entire ninja world.

Konoha ninja Shiranui Sou encounters the Third Mizukage while on a mission.

After a fierce battle, the Third Mizukage died, and his body was discovered by the Kirigakure Anbu a day later.

Less than half a year after the death of the third Kazekage, another Kazekage has died!

This time, however, the identity of the person who killed the Mizukage is clear.

Shiranui Sou!

When news of the Third Mizukage's death spread throughout the ninja world, every ninja village kage and leader, big or small, laid out all the information they could about him on their desks.

However, after reading through this information, everyone remained silent for a few minutes.

At this age, many of them have probably just become Jonin, but even so, they are already among the top geniuses of their generation in their respective ninja villages.

However, Shiranui Sho killed the Mizukage single-handedly during his youth!

This child is truly terrifying!

Leaf.

As Shiranui Sho and Uchiha Mikoto walked side by side down the street, they were constantly met with awe and admiration from those around them.

After several days of fermentation, the news spread like wildfire, and many people recognized him and connected him with the event of killing the Third Mizukage.

The common people of Konoha who had not pursued a career in ninja, as well as the newly graduated genin, were unaware of the significance of this achievement.

All they knew was that the Mizukage was to Kirigakure what the Hokage was to Konoha—the strongest ninja in the village.

Does Shiranui Sho's ability to kill the Mizukage mean that she possesses power comparable to the Hokage?

The Chunin and Jonin of Konoha have a deeper understanding of its meaning.

Having the power of a Hokage and having the ability to kill a Mizukage are two different things.

The Second Tsuchikage and the Second Mizukage were both undeniably powerful, yet they ultimately perished together; there was no instance of one killing the other.

Throughout the history of the ninja world, only these two Kage have died at the hands of another Kage, and both perished together.

Even Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage of Konoha, did not have the record of personally killing a Kage.

Does this mean that Shiranui Sho's strength is already above that of the Third Hokage?

"Xiao Jun has become an idol admired by many people."

Mikoto said with a smile, "I ran into Obito a couple of days ago. He was still studying at the Ninja Academy."

"He told me that he wanted to become a powerful ninja like Xiao Jun in the future and defeat the future Fourth Mizukage."

"Really?"

Shiranui Sou was slightly taken aback.

It feels rather strange to be regarded as an idol by the villainous boss in the original timeline.

And... the future Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi?

If I remember correctly, in the original work, this baby-faced Fourth Mizukage was also thoroughly tormented by Obito Uchiha.

He was manipulated by Obito Uchiha's genjutsu, turning the entire Hidden Mist Village into a chaotic mess and causing it to rapidly decline, turning him into a laughingstock.

Unexpectedly, in the ninja world where Shiranui Sho resides, Karatachi Yagura has been targeted by Obito so early on.

"However, Mikoto-nee, you should be able to sense it too, right?"

"Shiranui Sho asked with a smile."

Upon hearing this, Mikoto Uchiha's expression froze, and she nodded slightly.

"Yes, we've been being watched by someone these past few days."

“Even outside the Uchiha clan’s territory, Konoha’s ANBU ninjas have been taking turns monitoring them.”

The Konoha leadership thought they had done everything discreetly, but little did they know that before the perception of Observation Haki, these observers were like black sesame seeds falling into white porridge.

Shortly after Shiranui Sho mastered Observation Haki, Uchiha Mikoto also achieved similar success.

The power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit naturally enhances Observation Haki, strengthening it with the electromagnetic waves generated by the fruit's power and greatly expanding the range of perception.

Therefore, after Mikoto activated her Observation Haki, her perception range even surpassed that of Shiranui Sho.

"If Hikaru knew about this, he would probably be very happy, right?"

Shiranui Sou said meaningfully.

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Mikoto was slightly taken aback, but after realizing what was happening, a helpless smile appeared on her lips.

Indeed, their Uchiha clan leader, Hikaru, had long been dissatisfied with the Konoha leadership.

Chapter 192 Rumors Spread! The "Uncle" Party in Konoha!

"By the way, why didn't Xiaoguang come out today?"

"I am curious," Shiranui Sho asked.

"Her..."

With a gentle smile on her beautiful face, Mikoto said softly, "We have all successfully mastered Observation Haki. Hikaru is not willing to fall too far behind, so he has been training extra hard lately."

"I see."

Shiranui Sho smiled knowingly; this was indeed Uchiha Hikaru's personality.

However, since she mastered Observation Haki later than the other two, it's not surprising that she lacked talent.

For example, Shiranui Sou already had some understanding of Observation Haki and had been practicing it for a long time, so there was no obstacle to her understanding.

In addition, powerful spiritual energy, or mental energy, also enhances the training of Observation Haki, which is the fundamental reason why his perception range is rapidly expanding every day.

Mikoto Uchiha, with the help of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, found her training in Observation Haki much more efficient.

However, in Shiranui Sho's opinion, based on Uchiha Hikaru's training progress, he should be able to achieve results soon.

Just as Shiranui Sho and Mikoto were talking, a conversation echoed from their Observation Haki, causing them to stop and fall silent.

In the izakayas a hundred meters away, ninjas would have a few drinks after dinner to relieve the fatigue of carrying out missions during the day.

A ninja, seemingly emboldened by a slight buzz from alcohol, boldly opened the microphone:

"Hey! What are you guys so proud of?!"

"That guy named Shiranui Sho killed the Third Mizukage. Besides gaining fame for himself, did it do anything good for the village or for the rest of us?!"

Upon hearing this, someone loudly retorted:

"Our village's Jonin can kill the Kage of other ninja villages; this is a testament to Konoha's strength!"

Upon hearing this, the slightly tipsy ninja chuckled and said:

"You people are really talking without any sense of the consequences. When the Mist Village starts a war because of this, won't we ninjas be the ones who suffer?"

"Furthermore, what's this talk about the manifestation of strength? Do you really think the Mizukage was defeated by that Shiranui Sho alone?!"

Upon hearing this, the izakaya fell silent instantly, and the other guests who were already paying attention to the conversation perked up their ears.

People are often bewildered and humiliated by such acts of deception and treachery.

Noticing this, the slightly tipsy ninja's smile flickered briefly before turning grim again, and he coldly snorted:

“I have an uncle who works in the secret service, and he told me all the details!”

"That day, it wasn't just Shiranui Sho facing the Third Mizukage alone; he had an Anbu subordinate with him! It was clearly four against one!"

"Furthermore, their encounter with the Third Mizukage wasn't accidental. It was Shiranui Sho who accepted a mission from the Anbu to negotiate a friendly cooperation between Konoha and Kirigakure with the Third Hokage!"

"As a result, Shiranui Sho, for the sake of empty fame, took advantage of the Third Mizukage's inattention and ambushed him, which is why she succeeded despite the huge difference in strength!"

"Shiranui Sou is nothing but a shameless, despicable, fame-seeking villain! A sinner who dragged the village into the flames of war!"

After the words were spoken, a long silence fell over the izakaya.

Many people are carefully considering the veracity of these words.

Some people didn't believe what the man said while drunk and were about to refute him.

Instead, the next second, two ninjas dressed in ANBU uniforms and wearing masks suddenly burst into the izakaya and subdued the ninja who had spoken out of turn while drunk.

Next, he folded his heart and soul.

This scene somewhat obscured the "truth," which, in turn, gave rise to different thoughts in the minds of some neutral onlookers who did not trust what had just been said.

Could it be that the truth is as terrible as this ninja described?

Otherwise, why would an ANBU ninja come out and cover their mouth?

On the street, Uchiha Mikoto's pretty face flushed red, her beautiful eyes filled with anger.

Shiranui Sho, standing to the side, shook her head and chuckled, teasingly saying, "It seems the Third Hokage and the others have already started making their moves."

He never imagined that one day he would see the "Uncle Party" appear in Konoha.

I just don't know if the ninja's so-called "uncle who works in the Anbu" is surnamed Sarutobi or Shimura.

Under the perception of Observation Haki, this scene was not only playing out in that izakaya, but also in many other corners of Konoha.

Suddenly, many people appeared, each with a relative or friend working in the secret service, and they were told these hidden secrets.

"Xiao Jun, we cannot sit idly by and wait to die."

Mikoto said in a deep voice, "Their goal is to ruin your reputation and put you on the opposite side of the entire Hidden Leaf Village!"

"I know."

Shiranui Sou nodded slightly, a cold glint flashing in her eyes.

"Their goal is nothing more than to force me to defect from Konoha."

"In this way, Tsunade, Jiraiya, and even Sakumo-senpai, who would not normally obey their orders to deal with me, will all be forced to attack me at the Hokage's command."

Shimura Danzo and his group secretly lived in the village. They were so engrossed in their work that they could not understand the meaning of the words.

"Xiao Jun, what do you plan to do?"

Mikoto Uchiha's small face turned serious as she asked in a low voice.

"Whether it's leading the Uchiha clan to break away from Konoha and establish or take over a new ninja village, or bringing down those Konoha officials who are against you, Hikaru and I will support your decision!"

The usually gentle and mild-mannered girl spoke with a chilling aura, her eyes flashing with lightning.

"Miss Mikoto, you know my personality."

Shiranui Sho's lips curled into a cold smile. "Out of respect for Tsunade, Orochimaru, and Jiraiya, I've already given the Third Hokage a chance."

"Now that he's still making moves, we need to be prepared to bear the consequences."

"Konoha, it's time to get rid of these road-blocking pests!"
