After returning to Konoha, Souji just said hello to Minato and went straight back to his home.

Because not long ago, he received a reply from Orochimaru.

The content of the letter said that he agreed to Cang Si's request to use cash to purchase equipment from him, and asked Cang Si to send him the list of required equipment.

Now, Cang Si is in the basement laboratory of his home, making a list of the instruments he scrapped last time.

"A total of 3 large instruments, 6 medium-sized instruments, and 8 small instruments are needed. Fortunately, the number required is not too large." After listing, Cang Si said to himself.

After handing the list to the little black snake, Cang Si chose to go out for a walk instead of staying at home.

The atmosphere in the village is still very lively, even though it has been three months since Minato succeeded to the throne of the Fourth Hokage.

In addition, with Minato as the middleman, the gap between the Uchiha clan and the village was also eliminated a lot.

At least when Souji was walking down the street, the bolder villagers had already dared to talk to the members of the Uchiha Police Force.

If this had happened before, it would have been an absolutely unbelievable thing. Who would dare to talk to the Uchiha clan?

In addition, since Danzo's Root weaving has been cancelled, many people have become more bold in speaking. Unlike before, when talking about high-level personnel, they are no longer terrified, for fear that a Root member will appear behind them and invite them to have tea.

Everything can be said to be moving in a positive direction.

As long as days like this continue, I believe that Konoha will become more prosperous and lively in the near future!

"Hey, Kakashi, do you want to come over and eat meatballs with me?" Walking around a street corner, Cang Si suddenly heard a familiar name.

Looking up, I saw Might Guy, Asuma Sarutobi, and Kurenai Yuhi gathered together in the famous three-color meatball shop.

A young man with white hair, a mask on his face, and a Konoha forehead protector covering his left eye was passing by the Sansemeiwanzi shop with his hands in his pockets.

Hearing the familiar voice, Kakashi just turned his head, glanced towards the Sansemeidan shop, and then continued walking forward without responding at all.

This made Might Guy, who had just spoken, very disappointed, and his originally excited face instantly lost its expression.

Of course, for the optimistic Might Guy, this was nothing. He turned his loss into strength, picked up two strings of three-color meatballs, and ate them in two bites.

"Oh, that Kakashi guy has become like that again." Asuma Sarutobi sighed as if he was used to it.

"There's nothing he can do. He had finally gotten over Obito's death, but now even Nohara Rin..." Kurenai opened her beautiful red eyes and said helplessly.

Kakashi now has joined the Anbu not long ago.

How should I put it, although Kakashi has not been in the Anbu for a long time, the talent he has shown is really unmatched even by many older generation Anbu members!

When it comes to missions and enemies, he is decisive, calm, and bloodthirsty. Once Kakashi sets his sights on a prey, no one can escape.

Even the team leader who led Kakashi recently thought that he was no longer qualified to be Kakashi's captain.

Therefore, Minato is now considering whether to let Kakashi become the captain and lead a team.

"Asuma, Hong, I have an idea that may help Kakashi. Come and help me!" Looking at the two friends who were sighing, a raging fire was burning in Might Guy's heart.

Kakashi is his lifelong friend, so no matter what, he must help Kakashi cheer up again!

"Hey? Kai, what do you want to do?" Asuma asked confusedly.

Yuhi Kurenai also came closer with a curious look on her face.

Then, the three of them sat together and whispered for about five or six minutes.

"This? Is it really okay? Guy." After hearing Might Guy's seemingly unreliable idea, Yuhi Kurenai was a little worried.

asked back.

"Although I also think that Kai's idea is not a good one, we should still give it a try. Kakashi is our friend, and we can't just watch him go on like this!" Asuma frowned and thought for a moment before speaking.

"Okay, let's go!" After saying that, Might Guy took the lead and chased in the direction where Kakashi had just left.

And Yuhi Kurenai and Asuma followed closely behind.

However, where the three of them did not notice, Cang Si quietly popped up.

"It seems like they have discovered something interesting. Since I'm bored anyway, I might as well follow them and see what happens." Cang Si dragged his right hand joint with his left hand and pinched his chin with his right hand, muttering to himself with a gossipy heart burning in his heart.

Then, Cang Si followed directly behind Might Guy and the other two.

With Cang Si's strength, it is impossible for him to be discovered by three Chunins.

After tracking for a distance, Cang Si discovered that the three little guys in front of him actually wanted to sneak attack Kakashi!

"Is this the method that little Might Guy talked about to cheer Kakashi up again? Why can't I see any connection between these two things?" Looking at the three people who had surrounded Kakashi from three directions, Cang Si was a little confused for a moment.

However, Kakashi during this period was at the time when his strength was increasing the fastest. With the skills of Might Guy and the other two, they were unable to hurt Kakashi at all.

In no more than three minutes, Might Guy, Asuma Sarutobi and Kurenai Yuhi were already lying not far from Kakashi's feet.

"What are you doing?" Kakashi stared at Might Guy and asked coldly.

Needless to say, Kakashi knew that there was no one else who could come up with such a thing except Might Guy.

"Hahaha, of course I'm challenging you, Kakashi. You are worthy of being my lifelong rival. Congratulations, you have defeated me again." Might Guy, who was lying on the ground, suddenly rolled over, jumped up from the ground, gave Kakashi a thumbs up and said.

"What? Guy, you bastard! Didn't you say that this is the way to cheer Kakashi up?" Asuma rubbed his stomach which had just been kicked by Kakashi and glared at Might Guy.

On the other side, Kurenai Yuhi was also looking at Might Guy with dissatisfaction, while rubbing her shoulders.

She was not hit in the stomach by Kakashi, but was thrown over the shoulder. Her butt was a little sore now.

But in this situation, she was too embarrassed to do such indecent actions as rubbing his buttocks, so she could only look at Might Guy with a resentful look on her face.

"Ah? Did I say that? Maybe you heard it wrong! I just want you to challenge Kakashi with me." Might Guy touched the back of his head with a confused look on his face, not knowing whether he really forgot or was pretending to forget.

"Boring!" Kakashi just made this comment and left again, walking away aimlessly.

At the back, there were only three people staring at each other.

"Kakashi seems to be becoming more and more indifferent. This can't go on. We might end up following the same path as in the original novel." After hiding in a big tree and watching Kakashi's attitude throughout, Cang Si muttered to himself.

Just now, Cang Si felt the murderous intent emanating from Kakashi at the first moment when Might Guy and the other two did not reveal their figures and launched a surprise attack.

Fortunately, Kakashi finally confirmed who had attacked him, otherwise, Souji would have probably taken out Raikiri.

This also proves one thing, that is, Kakashi is now in an extremely dangerous state.

After thinking about it, Souji ignored Asuma Sarutobi and Kurenai Yuhi who were criticizing Might Guy, and instead directly caught up with Kakashi.

"Snapped"

Kakashi, who was moving forward, suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder.

Without thinking, Kakashi took out a kunai and stabbed behind him.

"Don't be nervous, it's me, it's true, Kakashi, this is in the village, if someone taps your shoulder, it must be someone who knows you, you always take out your kunai

This is not a good behavior." Cang Si's helpless tone reached Kakashi's ears.

"Senior Souji! I'm sorry, this is a stress reaction after joining the Anbu." After seeing who the person was, Kakashi relaxed and put away the kunai.

"I know. After all, it's not easy for you to hold on after things like that happen continuously." Cang Si nodded in understanding.

When Kakashi heard Cangsi bring up this topic, his expression became even darker.

He could be said to be helpless in doing anything about Obito's death, but it was different for Nohara Rin. The girl who she had promised Obito to protect with her life died in his hands!

Whenever Kakashi thought about it now, he felt like his hands were covered in blood.

Therefore, for Kakashi nowadays, the most common thing he does every day is washing his hands.

But no matter how many times he washed, he always felt that his hands still had a bloody smell and were not clean. This had been bothering him for several months.

Therefore, he now can only choose to numb himself by completing the tasks of the Anbu.

This is also the reason why he is so murderous now.

"Senior Cang Si, what do you want to talk to me about? If there is nothing else, then I will leave first." Now Kakashi just wants to be alone.

Looking at Kakashi in this state, Cang Si felt helpless. In this case, he could only use his trump card!

"Kakashi, go to the Daimyo Castle of the Land of Fire and meet your father. I think you and your father haven't seen each other for a long time.

I can't judge what you've been through, but I think your father should be able to give you some advice."

Souji said what he wanted to say to Kakashi early in the morning.

Ever since Obito's death, Kakashi has fully understood his father's choice. Now, the person he respects most in his heart is still his father!

"As for my father, I understand. Senior Cang Si, thank you for always giving me advice every time I am confused." Kakashi said after bowing sincerely to Cang Si.

"Remember to say hello to your teacher before you leave." Cang Si said lightly with a smile on his face.

"Yes, I will. Well, Senior Cang Si, I'll take my leave first." Kakashi nodded to Cang Si and turned and left.

Only when Kakashi's figure completely disappeared from his sight did Cang Si withdraw his gaze.

"Kakashi, can you get out?" After whispering to himself, Cang Si continued to wander around Konoha.

Konoha today is like the calm before the storm, and everyone has a smiling face.

But only Cang Si and a few of his friends knew that this was the last peace of Konoha.

Because, in about half a year, Uzumaki Kushina will be expecting her baby, and on that day, there will definitely be a violent storm.

Although they think they are fully prepared, who can guarantee that no unexpected situations will occur?

Whether the future will change for both Souji and Minato depends on what happens soon.

"I hope everything goes as Minato and I planned. That way, we don't have to worry about Yan." For Cang Si, as long as the Nine-Tails Night is successfully passed, the Uchiha clan's night of genocide will never happen with Minato's intervention!

Chapter 328 The Dark Shadow Sneaking into Konoha

Time flies. Ever since Souji conquered Ye Cang and returned from the Snow Country, it is now September of the 48th year of Konoha. In another month, it will be the Nine-Tails Night in the original work.

During this period, in order to avoid any accidents, Cang Si never left Konoha again. Nothing now is more important than the upcoming Nine-Tails Night!

On this day, Souji, who was originally staying at home, received a notice from Minato, asking him to go to the Hokage's office to discuss important matters.

Hearing this, Cang Si put down what he was doing without hesitation and headed straight for the Hokage Building.

When Cang Si arrived, he found that besides him, there were also Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha En in the Hokage's office.

The moment he saw the two of them, Cang Si knew that something big must have happened.

As expected, Minato's next statement directly pointed this out.

"Cang Si, the mastermind behind the scenes has revealed his whereabouts. Recently, the village's barrier team discovered something, that is, an unknown person frequently appears in the village." When Minato said this, there was a hint of excitement and a hint of worry on his face.

What makes me excited is that the mastermind that is suspected to be the cause of my death in the parallel universe in the future has appeared, but what makes me worried is that I will repeat the same old path.

The moment Minato opened his mouth, Souji knew that it must have been Uchiha Obito who did it using the power of Kamui.

Obito had no idea how to break the barrier covering the village, but Kamui's domineering ability allowed him to ignore it all and break through with brute force.

Although someone will be discovered to have infiltrated, no one knows the specific information of the intruder.

"And the place where that bastard comes in and out of the village is actually from the Uchiha clan. Damn it!" Uchiha Yan said indignantly.

"I've asked my clan members to keep an eye out for strangers at all times, but to no avail." Uchiha Fugaku sounded very discouraged when he said this.

Come to think of it, with strangers coming in and out of the village, and the location is in the Uchiha clan's place, it would be strange if the two of them didn't feel suffocated.

It is a good thing that Minato is in power now, otherwise the Uchiha clan would definitely be suspected by the villagers again.

This matter has now been kept secret by Minato. He only told three people: Souji, Uchiha En and Uchiha Fugaku.

However, Minato estimated that he would not be able to hide the truth from the Elders and the Third Hokage for much longer.

If the culprit is not found, the elders will most likely suspect the Uchiha clan again after they get to know about this.

This will make the harmonious atmosphere in the village, which had finally begun to become tense, become tense again.

"Today, I called all of you here because I was thinking about how to prevent the Council of Elders from placing suspicion on the Uchiha clan." Minato said after taking a deep breath.

"Fourth-generation sama, thank you for your trust in the Uchiha clan. No matter what, I will ask my clansmen to look for it more diligently." Uchiha Fugaku said with gratitude.

As the patriarch of the clan, Uchiha Fugaku knew very well how much pressure Minato had to face to make this decision.

It is no exaggeration to say that if Minato had not stood in the way, the Uchiha clan would have been suspected by the elders by now.

"You're welcome, Patriarch Fugaku. After all, we are friends. I know very well what kind of person Fugaku-kun is." Minato replied with a smile.

This can also be considered as a way for Minato to win people's hearts.

What's more, Minato really didn't believe that Uchiha Fugaku had the courage to join forces with unknown enemies and do something detrimental to Konoha.

Uchiha Fugaku's character destined him to be the patriarch of a clan at best. It was undoubtedly unrealistic for him to go one step further and challenge for the position of Hokage.
