Chapter 113: Chapter 113: Uchiha Shisui

Now, the Third Hokage does not intend to stalemate with Danzo on this issue.
After the Uchiha clan steps down, he has plenty of candidates to appoint.
The position of the guard force is a department with real power, and giving it to the families that support him.
He feels more at ease, and it can also be considered as giving these people a great benefit for their support.
How could Danzo not understand the Third Hokage's thoughts?
Discussing it afterwards, it's still the Third Hokage who has the final say.
He is unwilling to work hard for the benefit of others.
"Third Hokage, this time the guard force must have a place for my Root, otherwise, it would be better to let the Uchiha clan continue to hold the position of the guard force."
Hearing Danzo's words, the Third Hokage felt helpless. This guy wants to compete with him for power.
"You can have a place for your Root, but this matter should be discussed after the Uchiha clan's guard force is taken down. It's too early to discuss now."
Now he has to make some concessions because he also wants to take down the Uchiha clan's guard force. To make them return to being ordinary ninjas, no longer holding a transcendent status.
Even this seems like a good plan for him. When he controls the guard force, wouldn't his son be able to come out?
Danzo, regarding this result, although not very satisfied, he has also secured a good interest. Now it's clearly not the time to fight with the Third Hokage, but to suppress the Uchiha clan.
He directly spoke up. "Then I will go back to Root to prepare, mobilizing a large number of people to impeach the Uchiha clan."
"Don't forget to receive the Two-Tails Jinchūriki, the Uchiha clan's Sharingan might soon be able to control the Tailed Beast Jinchūriki."
This Two-Tails Jinchūriki is his. He doesn't want any accidents.
The Third Hokage naturally nodded. "There's no need for you to remind me of this."
He himself feels that placing the Two-Tails Jinchūriki in their clan's territory is too dangerous.
Although he has asked Shisui if he can control the Tailed Beast Jinchūriki, the answer was no, but who knows what kind of secret techniques this clan has?
Hearing this, Danzo pushed open the door and left the office.
The Third Hokage waited for a while after Danzo left before having an Anbu member notify Kakashi and several other Anbu members, then went to the Uchiha clan's territory to receive the Two-Tails Jinchūriki.
The reason for this arrangement is that he is afraid Danzo might do something underhanded.
This guy is very untrustworthy, and there have been out-of-line actions before, so multiple Anbu members must be dispatched to prevent a sudden robbery by Root.
Because he has promised this guy, if he gets aggressive and directly snatches the Two-Tails Jinchūriki, he might not be able to confront him, especially at this time.
After Kakashi, who was guarding Naruto, received the notification from the Anbu member, he left one Anbu member to watch over Naruto. In case of an emergency, a signal flare would be launched.
He and three other Anbu members went directly to the main gate of the Uchiha clan's territory.
Upon arriving at the gate, they did not barge in directly but notified the guards at the gate.
"The Third Hokage has ordered us four Anbu members to come and receive the Tailed Beast, we hope your clan can hand it over to us."
For the Uchiha clan, who had just defeated the Kumogakure ninja army, he held respect.
Whether in terms of combat power or protecting the village, or even winning the war with the strength of two clans.
He even knew under what unfavorable circumstances these two clans won the war, which made him even more impressed.
The Uchiha clan members guarding the gate looked at each other and directly answered according to what Ryosuke had said. "The Two-Tails Jinchūriki is under the custody of our Uchiha clan and will not be handed over to you Anbu."
Kakashi frowned and said puzzledly, "This is the Third Hokage's order, I'm afraid it's not something you can decide, right? Please inform your clan leader."
One of the Uchiha clan members said impatiently, "Our superiors have already given orders, even if the Hokage himself comes, we will absolutely not hand it over to you."
The other party was polite, so he wasn't too arrogant. If it were Root members, he would have directly driven them away. He wouldn't have said so much.
An Anbu member behind Kakashi, seeing that the Uchiha clan didn't even heed the Third Hokage's order, couldn't help but say in surprise, "Captain Kakashi, what should we do now?"
Kakashi could only say helplessly, "This matter should be reported to the Hokage."
This matter is indeed troublesome, the Uchiha clan seems to be rising.
In the past, how could they refuse the Hokage's order, do they want to take the Tailed Beast Jinchūriki for themselves?
Soon, the Third Hokage received the report from Kakashi and other Anbu members.
He waved his hand to let Kakashi and others return to their tasks. After they left, the Third Hokage's face twisted.
Refusing Danzo's reception is one thing, after all, Danzo is just an advisory elder, his power is granted by the Third Hokage.
And he, the Third Hokage, is the highest authority in Konoha, all ninjas must follow his orders.
On the matter of the Tailed Beast Jinchūriki, it should naturally be controlled by him, the Third Hokage, and definitely not by a mere clan, even if it's the Uchiha clan.
This is clearly not putting him in their eyes.
'Damn Uchiha clan.'
If this continues, he, the Third Hokage, will really be treated as a decoration by them.
It seems that he can't let them be so arrogant anymore, he must convene a clan leader meeting to suppress this clan.
If many ninja clans stand on his side and demand the Uchiha clan to hand over the Two-Tails Jinchūriki, the Third Hokage doesn't believe they dare not to.
...
A few days later, a young man slowly walked through the gates of Konoha.
Wearing a Konoha forehead protector, with short black hair. On both shoulders, there is the Uchiha clan's fan emblem.
Undoubtedly, he is a member of the Uchiha clan, and he is the famous Uchiha Shisui of Konoha, known as Shunshin no Shisui, returning from the eastern border of the Land of Fire.
There are no more Kiri ninjas appearing on the border, it seems they have given up on invading the Land of Fire.
As he steps through the gates of Konoha, the ninjas guarding the gate quickly let him pass.
They know of Uchiha Shisui, the genius of the Uchiha clan, and won't give him too much trouble, especially since he is also the Hokage's Anbu.
After returning to the village, Shisui did not go back to the clan's territory, but instead went to the Hokage building to report to the Third Hokage.
When he stepped into the Hokage's office, the Third Hokage's face showed great surprise upon seeing him.
"Shisui, you're back, it seems the border has stabilized."
"Thank you for your hard work, it's because of your protection that the Kiri ninjas dare not make any more moves."
Shisui is the son of his old friend Uchiha Kagami, naturally he feels particularly close to him, and also easier to control.
Compared to the unruly other members of the Uchiha clan, he is somewhat amiable. He doesn't have too radical thoughts. Very easy to control.
If he weren't from the Uchiha clan, he would have considered cultivating him as the next Hokage. It's just a pity, too young, and a member of the Uchiha clan.
Hearing the Third's words, Shisui did not become complacent, but instead said modestly.
"For the village, this is what I should do."
The Third Hokage was very satisfied in his heart, this is a good Uchiha clan member, staying at the harsh border for so long for the betterment of the village.
And Shisui also has quite a high reputation within the Uchiha clan, his return is just in time to assist him in taking over the Two-Tails Jinchūriki.
"Shisui, this time your Uchiha clan has achieved a great victory over the Kumogakure ninja army."
"For the peace of Konoha, you have made a tremendous contribution."
