After Uchiha Touhuan left, Uchiha Shisui didn't even bother to put on the pair of glasses that Uchiha Touhuan had given him, and instead rushed quickly towards the Hokage Building.

Although Uchiha Touhuan said he would not use his eyes to control the Hokage, Shisui still dared not take the risk.

At the very least, we need to prepare the Hokage for what's to come.

With this belief, Uchiha Shisui endured the excruciating pain in his eyes and stumbled to the Hokage Building.

"Uchiha Shisui?" The two Chunin guards in front of the Hokage Building were shocked when they saw the person and his miserable state. This was the famous Shisui of the Body Flicker Technique. Why was he in this state?

"I need to see the Hokage! Quickly!" Uchiha Shisui hurriedly said.

"What happened?" At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had heard the commotion, also came out of the office. When he saw Shisui's empty eye sockets, he was also startled. His task for Shisui today was to investigate the situation of the Uchiha clan meeting, but now Shisui was seriously injured. Could it be that the Uchiha clan was really going to rebel?

"Shisui! Quick! Call the medical ninjas over!" The Third Hokage hurriedly gave the order.

"Lord Hokage, I have an emergency to report. We can talk about the medical ninja later," Uchiha Shisui said hastily after hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice.

"Alright." Seeing that Shisui was agitated, the Third Generation had no choice but to take him into his office and dismiss everyone else.

"Tell me, Shisui, what exactly happened?" the Third Hokage asked with some difficulty, while also preparing for the worst.

Uchiha Shisui took a deep breath and recounted everything that had happened that night, including the abilities of the eyes that Uchiha Touhuan had taken from him, without daring to conceal anything.

The Third Hokage's expression grew increasingly grave as he listened. To be honest, he had already mentally prepared himself for the Uchiha clan's formal rebellion, but the information Shisui brought was far more serious than that.

"Touhuan?" The Third Hokage had lit a pipe at some point, and after exhaling a long puff of smoke, the image of Uchiha Touhuan came to mind.

In the Third Hokage's memory, this Uchiha, who was on par with Shisui and made great contributions in the Third Shinobi World War, was not like the arrogant Uchiha. Although he was a bit more aloof and didn't like to talk much compared to Shisui, his "smiling law enforcement" policy implemented in the police force was widely praised by the villagers and made a great contribution to easing the relationship between the villagers and the Uchiha clan. Originally, Hiruzen Sarutobi thought that this was also an Uchiha with the Will of Fire like his former comrade Uchiha Kagami, but he didn't expect that he had such a conspiracy in the dark. Moreover, the other party now had the power of two pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan.

"Lord Hokage, you must be careful! Don't give Touhuan any opportunity!" Uchiha Shisui warned.

"I understand, Shisui. Don't worry, things haven't gotten to the worst yet," Hiruzen Sarutobi said, puffing on his cigarette. "Go get your glasses put back on first."

"Lord Hokage!" Shisui exclaimed anxiously.

"Even if he controls me with your eyes, his plot will not succeed, Shisui. You must understand that the reason a Hokage is the Hokage is because everyone in the village acknowledges the Will of Fire. If he thinks that controlling me will allow him to control the entire Hidden Leaf Village, then he is sorely mistaken!" Hiruzen Sarutobi patted Shisui on the shoulder and said, "So, go with peace of mind. We still need your strength to stop his plot."

"Hokage-sama..." Shisui choked up as Hiruzen Sarutobi spoke, "I understand! I will definitely stop him!"

……

After Uchiha Shisui was taken to have an eye transplant, a figure leaning on a cane slowly emerged from the shadows of the Hokage's office.

"Hiruzen, what are you still hesitating for!" Seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi sitting silently in the Hokage's office chair, the newcomer urgently demanded, "Do you really want to become that inherently evil Uchiha brat's puppet?"

"Danzo, calm down." Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at his old partner. "Things haven't gotten to that point yet."

"Uchiha Touhuan has clearly been planning to rebel for a long time. If we continue to sit and wait for our deaths, it will be too late!" Danzo said angrily when he saw Hiruzen Sarutobi still hesitating. "Furthermore, the Uchiha have long harbored rebellious intentions. Once they find out that Uchiha Touhuan has awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, they will probably rise up today! We must strike first and capture Uchiha Touhuan!"

"Enough! Danzo! I am the Hokage!" Hiruzen Sarutobi roared.

"Hiruzen! You'll regret this!"

"Bang!"

After Danzo slammed the door and left, Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep drag of his cigarette and looked out at the night sky.

Based on his understanding of Danzo, Hiruzen Sarutobi would definitely lead a group to intercept and kill Uchiha Touhuan in secret. Hiruzen Sarutobi was also happy to see this happen. If he succeeded, then everyone would be happy. If Danzo failed, it would just be Danzo's personal behavior and would have nothing to do with him, the Hokage. This was an unspoken understanding between the two of them over the years.

"These are truly turbulent times," Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed in the smoke-filled Hokage's office.

……

The sun rose as usual the next morning.

After waking up from his coma, Uchiha Touhuan quickly washed up and headed to work at the police station.

Uchiha Touhuan had just entered his office and hadn't even settled in when Uchiha Fugaku, the captain of the security team and also the head of the Uchiha clan, walked in.

"Douhuan, get ready. There's an urgent mission in the village. You'll be going with Inahisa and Zaidou, and you'll be leading the team," Fugaku Uchiha said with a stern face.

"I understand." Uchiha Touhuan nodded, not surprised at all, but rather feeling that the mission had come a little too early.

"Are the people on the Hokage's side really that impatient?" After Fugaku Uchiha left, Touhuan Uchiha gently drew the long sword from his waist, the cold blade reflecting his face.

Sheathing his longsword, packing his gear, and picking up his mission scroll, Uchiha Touhuan waited for his teammates for this mission in front of the security headquarters gate.

Uchiha Inahisa and Uchiha Zaito were both outstanding members of the younger generation of the Uchiha clan. Although their strength was far inferior to that of Shisui and Touhuan, they became Chunin before the age of 20 and awakened the two-tomoe.

However, like most Uchiha, their limited mental capacity was completely consumed by the sense of honor of their clan. Therefore, the two of them had some reservations about Uchiha Touhuan, who always advocated smiling law enforcement. However, with the mission at hand, the two of them still gave Uchiha Touhuan a standard bow when they saw him.

Uchiha Touhuan nodded, then said, "Let's go."
