From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

Then, the scene suddenly became quiet.

Hinata Hiashi looked at Diarmait somewhat awkwardly, while Diarmait looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a strange look.

"Hey, old man, are you suspicious of me? That's why you came to visit me, your 'old friend' so early in the morning?" Diarmait spoke first.

He just comes up and blames others.

Sarutobi Hiruzen burst out laughing upon hearing this, looking quite cheerful. He took a sip of his tea and said, "Hahahaha...how is this possible? Even though Diarmuid is a bastard, he has always been a good friend of Konoha. How could I doubt you? Hahaha, impossible. You're overthinking it."

Of course, Sarutobi Hiruzen came here because he did have some doubts about Diarmait.

But this was only part of the reason. However, after meeting Diarmait and the series of conversations that followed, his doubts about Diarmait were really getting less and less.

After a few awkward laughs, Diarmait stared at Sarutobi Hiruzen with suspicion, but soon he shook his head and said, "Forget it, forget it. It's normal for you to be suspicious. Well, Shisui is very powerful, and now someone can kill him in Konoha within ten minutes without alerting anyone. This proves that there must be a very powerful guy in Konoha. So, for the sake of our old friendship, I will help you. If you can find this person in Konoha, I will personally help you deal with him!"

As he said this, Diarmait looked eager to try.

You know what, the more he acted like this, the less suspicious Sarutobi Hiruzen became.

As for Diarmait's attitude, he more or less understood it. This guy was "itching to fight" and wanted to compete with a master when he met one.

Given Diarmait's character, it's perfectly normal for him to behave this way.

"Then I'm serious." Sarutobi Hiruzen said directly.

As the Hokage, he is of course very thick-skinned.

Anyone who can kill Shisui must be a strong person. If Konoha really finds that person, it will probably take a lot of effort just to deal with him.

It would definitely be a good thing if we could have a powerful fighter like Diarmait to help us.

Why did he refuse?

Diarmait nodded in satisfaction at first, but then he smacked his lips and said, "But I think it's still unsolved. Usually, when things get this far and the person isn't apprehended, it's likely to be an unsolved case."

So many ninjas die every year, and there are also many general homicide cases. In the end, very few cases can be completely solved.

What's more, the one who made the move was such a master?

So even though Sarutobi Hiruzen was unhappy, he still nodded and said, "We must always try our best."

"Then do your best." Diarmait nodded.

However, Diarmait didn't take these things to heart. He was just acting. This case, at this point, was definitely unsolved. After all, the murderer was me...

After a while of awkward chatting, Sarutobi Hiruzen took a sip of tea and asked as if nothing had happened, "Did Shimura Danzo invite you here?"

"Hmm?" Diarmait first responded, then said, "Not really. He was planning to hire us, but I outsourced the job."

Sarutobi Hiruzen???

Outsourcing?

Before he could say anything, Diarmuid spoke with a serious expression, "Ah, actually, this is a good job, but I think I still can't bear to do anything to my good friend Muye, so I outsourced it. However, I am not sure if it is outsourced, so I decided to come and take a look, in case there is any mistake and it will affect the reputation of my Yorozuya."

Sarutobi Hiruzen???

What the hell is going on?

Can you be serious?

This issue concerns the grievances of our Konoha over the past decades, as well as the development in the next few decades.

"So who did you outsource to?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked helplessly.

"Hmm... a bastard with no humanity, you guys in Konoha also know him." Diarmuid thought for a moment and replied.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Diarmait with a bit of toothache... We in Konoha have known many bastards without any humanity, such as you, Diarmait, so what you are saying now is not bullshit?

"It seems that that inhuman bastard is quite familiar with you?" Sarutobi Hiruzen said sarcastically.

The implicit meaning is that you two are birds of a feather.

But Diarmait didn't know whether he didn't understand or was doing it on purpose. He simply waved his hand and said, "I'm not familiar with him. I've only met him once. To be honest, I don't want to see him now. I'm afraid that if I see him, I will want to beat him up."

Sarutobi Hiruzen is confused again, what are you doing?

"Do you have a grudge against him?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

"No grudges... not really." Diarmait shook his head, then said, "I simply don't like him, that's all."

Does Uchiha Obito have any grudge against Diarmuid?

No, although Black Zetsu thinks there is, after all, Obito made a series of bold moves that even tricked Diarmait.

But that was all an illusion created by Diarmait.

In fact, Obito had no effect on him at all.

Naturally, he had no grudges against Uchiha Obito. Before the Night of the Nine-Tails, Diarmuid's opinion of Uchiha Obito was relatively neutral, but after that, he no longer had any good feelings towards Uchiha Obito and indeed disliked him.

Is it worth having a good impression of someone who can be so cruel as to kill his own master and his mistress, especially the mistress who has always been very kind to him?

Sarutobi Hiruzen was completely bewildered by Diarmait's actions. After thinking it over, he finally asked, "Can you please tell me who he is?"

"It's inconvenient." Diarmait said directly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen almost crushed the cup in his hand.

What the hell are you...

Not only did you outsource such a serious matter for us in Konoha, but you also outsourced it to someone you don't like.

If this goes wrong...

As if he could see Sarutobi Hiruzen's worry, Diarmait smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm in Konoha. If anything unexpected happens, I'll take care of it."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent for a moment, then said, "What kind of reward did that Danzo guy negotiate with you?"

"Sharingan." Diarmait said directly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Diarmait with a somewhat helpless look, thinking to himself, "Can you be more direct?"

“What’s wrong?” Diarmait asked.

"Nothing... nothing." Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand.

I always feel that I shouldn’t have asked this question today, or even shouldn’t have come here. Why does my mood get worse?

"According to the agreement between me and Danzo, our Yorozuya will support them in this matter and assist your Konoha to secretly wipe out the Uchiha clan. After the task is accomplished, I will take back two-thirds of the Uchiha clan's Sharingan." Diarmait said.

It’s like selling Danzo directly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was very conflicted... But in the end, he didn't question the question. Instead, he asked, "What about the rest?"

"The rest? Danzo said he would use it." Diarmait said without hesitation.

It seems that betraying Danzo's intelligence information is particularly easy.

Sarutobi Hiruzen???

He asked in surprise, "I understand you want the Sharingan. After all, that bastard Orochimaru took some away originally, presumably for research, right? But what does Danzo want this for?"

In fact, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't really think much about Diarmait's involvement.

There's no need to think too much about it.

Perhaps this involves the Uchiha, the Sharingan, or something like that, but from his point of view, this matter, and the relationship with Diarmait, is actually just an employment relationship.

So the Sharingan and the like are just rewards.

At this stage, few people know how great an impact the Sharingan will have on the ninja world in the future.

(Qian Qian Zhao) Of course I wouldn’t think too much about it.

Diarmait got involved just because Orochimaru wanted to study this thing. As for whether there would be any results later, to be honest, Sarutobi Hiruzen was not very interested.

"How should I know what he wants to do with the Sharingan? Maybe it's because he's a pervert?" Diarmait said carelessly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Hinata Hiashi, who had been silent, laughed and said, "Then aren't you a pervert too?"

"I'm different. I'm doing this for scientific research." Diarmait waved his hand, then seemed to hesitate before continuing, "I've never mentioned this to you before, mainly because I thought it might make you feel bad. But don't overthink it, Hiashi. I'm certainly interested in the Sharingan, but I have no interest in your Byakugan at all, and I will never attack you..."

Sharingan, Byakugan, Uchiha, Hyuga, there are so many similarities between them.

What Diarmait said here about trading people's eyes is indeed a bit unkind in the Hyuga family.

When Hinata Hiashi heard these things before, he was indeed in an unhappy mood. It was a feeling of sympathy.

But after Diarmuid said this, his mood became even more complicated.

What do you mean? Are you looking down on us or something?

Are you not interested in our white eyes?

Therefore, Hinata Hiashi said with a somewhat frustrated expression: "Then thank you so much..."

"You're welcome. It's all my duty." Diarmait said generously.

Chapter 657 Uchiha Itachi and the masked man.

In the next few days, Konoha seemed relatively calm on the surface.

Although the security system has become more serious, it seems that nothing serious is about to happen.

Diarmuid still lived in the Hyuga household, and no one bothered him.

And in the Uchiha clan territory.

Itachi Uchiha's situation doesn't seem to be very good.

Ever since Uchiha Shisui died, Uchiha Itachi could only smile when facing his younger brother Sasuke. At other times, he basically had a stern face, as if everyone owed him millions.

That day, after returning from Anbu, Uchiha Itachi's mood became even worse.

The death of Uchiha Shisui did not bring peace to the Uchiha clan temporarily. On the contrary, it seemed to have stimulated the hearts of the Uchiha clan. In the past few days, the atmosphere in the clan has become increasingly tense.

As soon as he entered the gate of the Uchiha Clan, he was met by several Uchiha Clan ninjas, one of whom was none other than the Jonin of the Security Department, Uchiha Inahime.

After seeing Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Inahori frowned slightly, snorted coldly, and did not even say hello to the son of the clan leader. It was as if he did not even see Uchiha Itachi, and walked past him.

The other Uchiha members also looked at Uchiha Itachi with disdain and walked away. "Brother Inahiro, everyone says that Shisui might have been killed by him. Is that true?" "Who knows, but he's a big suspect, isn't he?" Uchiha Inahiro said.

Although Uchiha Shisui is a spy on the side of the Hokage, to be honest, he has a very good reputation in the Uchiha clan. For example, Uchiha Inahime always felt that he and Shisui were good friends.

This is normal. As a spy, of course you have to get along with these people in order to obtain important intelligence. Otherwise, if you don't fit in, people will naturally dislike you. If they don't like you, how can they inform you of the news?

In comparison, Uchiha Itachi has always had a bit of a "traitor" vibe. He is clearly a member of the Uchiha clan, but he always talks about which village he is, which makes the radicals in the Uchiha clan dislike him. Especially since such a guy is the son of the clan leader, which is even more excessive.
