In the dark underground environment, there were crisscrossing wooden beams. This was the root of the wooden leaves and also the hiding place of the radical party.
In the small room, white gauze was wrapped around Tanzou's right eye. No one knew why his right eye was injured, not even his former comrade, Naruto III.
The candlelight was faintly discernible, and there was a report on the table. The photo on the report was of Uchiha Maki.
Uchiha returned to the village safely, which meant that the person he sent out to carry out the mission had been killed. Originally, before Kakashi's team left, he had wanted to send out two teams to carry out this mission. However, since Kakashi's team had left and returned to Muye, sending two teams to kill a small kid was a big deal for him. Now, it seemed that his initial judgment was wrong.
It was best not to underestimate the Uchiha clan.
" Uchiha..." Danzo clenched his fists and muttered to himself.
He was from the same generation as the third-generation Naruto. He had once seen Uchiha Ban and the first-generation Naruto. The person who was as strong as the first-generation Naruto died not long after returning to the village after fighting Uchiha Ban.
All this while, the second generation Naruto had been wary of the Uchiha Clan. He had perfectly inherited the second generation Naruto's views on the Uchiha Clan. He believed that the Uchiha clan would become a threat to Koba once they became powerful.
The Uchiha clan was different from the other clans in the village. The Uchiha clan, who had Shurunyan, could be said to be an all-rounded ninja. Unlike Hyuga, Kuruma, Yuan Fei, and the like, these clans were all single-type ninjas.
Especially the Uchiha clan, the greater the hatred, the stronger they were. A genius who had opened his eyes at the age of six had a high probability of activating the Kaleidoscope Sharun Eye.
If someone in the Uchiha clan activated the Kaleidoscope Sharunan, how many Koba Ninjas would suffer if the Uchiha clan launched a coup?
This was the reason why Tanzang had no choice but to send someone to kill Uchiha Maki. People like Uchiha whose vision was limited to a clan of powerful ninjas were the most worrying. It was best to eliminate Uchiha's genius before he grew up.
……
" 596, 597…850." In the Uchiha Clan's encampment, Ma Hui was doing push-ups to train his physical strength.
This kind of cultivation, apart from strengthening one's physical strength and breaking through one's limits, did not increase one's strength significantly. Coincidentally, Ma Hui needed this kind of cultivation to break through and increase his chakra capacity.
Chakra was formed by the combination of mental energy and the cells of the body. Every breakthrough in the human body would increase one's mental power. If he wanted to increase the amount of chakras, he would have to constantly break through his limits and strengthen his mental ability. Perhaps it was because he had lived two lives, Ma Hui's spiritual power was very strong. However, it was limited by his body, causing his chakra capacity to only be at the level of an average Jounin. If Ma Hui was given a few more years to grow, his chakra capacity would definitely undergo a qualitative change.
“1000。”After completing the last set of actions, Ma Hui stood up and prepared to do the next set of actions.
"Uchiha Mahui." A cold voice without a trace of emotion appeared in front of Ma Hui.
"What is it?" Ma Hui glanced at him.
"Third generation Lord Naruto has summoned you."
"Is it coming?" Ma Hui thought to himself.
Naruto's office was located at the bottom of the cliff, a building full of tribal characteristics.
Ma Hui walked in front, in the dark. The Dark Group had been staring at Ma Hui.
In Naruto's office, the third generation Naruto and the two advisors of Koba were there, but the group treasury did not appear.
The loss of a Jounin in any Ninja Village was something worth paying attention to. This was especially true for a C-rank mission. There was even the death of a Jounin, and the team members were still alive. This was a matter full of questions.
Ma Hui walked into the third generation Naruto's office. He didn't see Nakagami Shichikai. Other than the third generation Naruto and the two advisors, there was no one else.
"Third generation lord, I heard you were looking for me.”Ma Hui said as he looked at the third generation Naruto.
The current third generation Naruto had reached the peak of his life. He was no longer the grey-haired third generation.
"Uchiha Maki, why didn't you immediately report the death of Kondo Shouta to the village when you returned?”Before the third-generation successor could say anything, Xiao Chun, who was next to him, spoke up.
"May I ask who you are?" Ma Hui wasn't worried about how she would treat him, but he was still cautious because this was a very rational and intelligent middle-aged female ninja.
I'm the village's consultant." She introduced herself.
However, Ma Hui ignored her and looked at the third-generation successor.
"Third generation lord, may I ask why you are looking for me?”The consultant was only in charge of the administrative department in the village. She assisted Naruto in managing the administrative affairs of the wooden leaf. She did not have the authority to ask Ma Hui to do anything. Ma Hui could not even be bothered to answer her questions.
" Aki Uchiha, you..." Haru, who had been transferred to another room, did not get angry. Instead, she frowned and spoke again.
"Ahem." The third-generation successor coughed and interrupted Xiao Chun's words. He continued,"Ma Hui, I already have some understanding of your situation. Can I trouble you to tell me the exact situation at that time?”
Ma Hui knew what the third generation was talking about, so he explained the situation. Other than hiding the fact that he had killed Kondo Shouta and retrieved the four root corpses, he basically told them everything else. Of course, Ma Hui did not foolishly tell anyone that the Uchiha clan had sent people to protect him. If he said it, all the lies would be seen through.
After hearing Ma Hui's words, the third-generation successor and the two advisors looked at each other.
However, the third-generation Naruto felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't pinpoint where it was.
The final conclusion of this matter was that the people of Hidden Earth Village had come to kill Kondo Shouta, but they had succeeded and escaped. The two lucky ones were left behind.
"Thank you for your hard work. We will give you and your family an explanation for this matter.”The third-generation successor said emotionally.
"Then I'll take my leave." After saying that, Ma Hui left Naruto's office.
"It's similar to what Zhongsi Qihai said.”Mito Flame didn't say anything until Ma Hui left.
"Inform their families as soon as possible. We also need to give their families an answer.”The third-generation successor took a puff of his cigarette and said in a low voice.
However, the third-generation successor's gaze was fixed on a piece of information on the table. It was the information that the Dark Group had investigated.
There were too many traces of wood leaves inside, be it battle or ninja tools.
Ma Hui didn't know how to deal with the following matters. No matter what happened, the higher-ups needed a reason. Moreover, Ma Hui didn't need to worry about what happened after that. There would be someone else to handle it for him.
There was also someone who did not want this matter to be exposed. It was the original author of this matter, Shimura Danzou.
The higher-ups needed a reason, and Ma Hui needed time. The entire matter would be forgotten as time passed.
This world was so illogical. The survival of humans, hatred, and war only needed an excuse and reason.
