My Ninja Cat Thought I Was Weak, So I Stole Thunder Fruit

Chapter 10 Danzo began to brainstorm, this must be Uchiha's conspiracy!

Konoha Village.

Hokage office.

At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen was standing alone by the window, admiring the bright moonlight.

The friction between the village and Cloud Shinobi finally came to an end today.

Perfect fall.

"Without the threat of Cloud Shinobi Village, I can also focus on the internal unity of the village."

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought to himself.

Since the events of the Nine Tails riots, the village has been estranged from the Uchiha clan.

"If this barrier cannot be eliminated smoothly, then the Uchiha clan will be a ticking time bomb in the village."

Although in the Uchiha clan, there are also excellent ninjas like Shisui and Itachi who inherited the will of fire, but compared with the huge clan, it is still a drop in the bucket.

However……

Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen was thinking about these trivial matters, there was a knock on the door of the office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind returned to the real world, "Come in."

As the visitor was affirmed by Sarutobi Hiruzen, he opened the door and entered.

When he reached a certain position, he knelt down on one knee and lowered his head slightly.

"Master Hokage."

"Let's talk." Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Anbu who had come and returned to his seat.

"Ninjas from Cloud Shinobi Village attempted to kidnap Hyūga Hinata..."

Before the Anbu ninja could finish narrating the matter, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes widened in shock, and he stood up from the Hokage seat with a bang.

"what?!"

For a moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen only felt his brain go blank.

Didn't Cloud Shinobi Village just sign a peace agreement with them?

Why did he do such a thing in the blink of an eye?

Is the peace agreement just a piece of waste paper in their eyes?

Moreover, Hinata's identity is no small matter.

At a young age, she is the daughter of the Hyuga patriarch.

On a bigger scale, she is the future heir of the Hyuga clan, the ninja with the purest white eyes!

Once taken to Cloud Shinobi Village for human studies.

The secret of Hyuga's white eyes is likely to be cracked and turned into the power of Cloud Shinobi Village!

"What about Hinata?"

"Did you come back?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen asked urgently.

"Not only did she get back, but the ninjas who held her hostage were also shot dead, it's just..."

"Just what?" Sarutobi Hiruzen raised an eyebrow, "Say."

"The person who killed those ninjas seems to be Uchiha Hefeng."

When the Anbu ninja's voice fell, Sarutobi Hiruzen froze in place.

He is no stranger to the name Hefeng.

Just two days ago, Shisui, who reported Uchiha's movements, mentioned him.

The ninja who claims to blow up the roof of Fugaku is Hefeng.

He accidentally caused it when he was developing new ninjutsu.

I thought it was just an inconspicuous episode.

Unexpectedly, in the past two days, I heard Hefeng's name again!

Then, the Anbu ninja explained the whole incident clearly.

Although they did not witness Hefeng's battle, according to Hyuga Hiashi.

It was Hefeng who single-handedly eliminated one Jōnin, four Chūnin, and rescued Hinata.

The key is……

Not only was Hefeng unscathed, his body was not even stained with dust or bloodline.

"I also checked the corpses of those Cloud Shinobi..."

"The fatal injuries were not caused by Gentle Fist."

As Hokage's immediate subordinate Anbu.

They did not dispose of corpses less.

You can never go wrong when it comes to probing the cause of death.

"You mean that Chūnin named Hefeng easily eliminated the enemy?!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen gasped when he heard that.

If it was Shisui and Itachi, he wouldn't be so surprised.

But this Hefeng...

He remembers very clearly that Hefeng, who was only five years old, went to the battlefield with his parents during the Third Ninja World War.

Although his strength is mediocre and he didn't activate Sharingan, considering that his parents died for the village, when Namikaze Minato became Fourth Hokage, he proposed to promote Hefeng to Chūnin.

In other words, in terms of strength, Hefeng is just a Genin in the village.

However, this Genin in my impression first developed Lightning Style ninjutsu, and then eliminated Jōnin from Cloud Shinobi Village!

eccentric……

It's just too weird.

"Moreover, the Uchiha resident is located on the edge of the village. If there is no clear goal, how could Hefeng go to that kind of place?"

Is it possible...

This guy, Hefeng, has been hiding his strength?

But why, at this juncture, show their own strength?

For a while, Sarutobi Hiruzen racked his brains and couldn't figure out Hefeng's motive.

However, a wave of ups and downs rose again...

That's when Sarutobi Hiruzen was trying to digest the information.

Another member of Konoha's senior management came to Hokage's office in a hurry.

She has short black hair, and her right eye is tightly wrapped with a white bandage.

It's Danzo!

In the Anbu team that is directly under Hokage, he has long been an eyeliner.

When he learned of the big event that happened tonight, he put down all the work in his hands and came here.

"Hiruzen, you should have heard of it, right?"

"Danzo." Sarutobi Hiruzen squinted his eyes halfway, not expecting him to be so well informed.

"What do you think the truth is?"

Danzo met Sarutobi Hiruzen's gaze directly and omitted the polite words.

In his opinion, what happened tonight is enough to be a big event that threatens Konoha.

"The first truth is that Hyuga Hiashi killed the leader of Cloud Shinobi, and then passed the issue to the people of Uchiha, thus disregarding the relationship of the Hyuga clan in this incident."

"But why did Hefeng appear there?"

"It's hard to explain."

While talking, Danzo stretched out his right index finger.

Then, he extended his middle finger again.

"Second truth, that man Hiashi didn't lie, when he rushed to the scene, Hefeng had already dealt with all of Cloud Shinobi."

"However, the Uchiha family has always had a high life, why did they save Hinata?"

"And, where did they get the information from?"

"What the hell are you trying to say, Danzo?" Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned.

He actually knew exactly what Danzo was trying to say in his heart.

But he needs Danzo to speak up.

"What I want to say is..."

"That brat, Hefeng, has probably been hiding his strength."

"The reason why he appeared in that place was because of the pupil art of the Uchiha clan. They secretly cast illusion on Cloud Shinobi, so they were able to understand their plan."

"However, they did not report this to us."

"Instead, Hefeng was sent to rescue Hinata."

"Presumably, it should be Fugaku who wants to win over the Hyuga clan?"

"Although he voluntarily withdrew from the Fourth Hokage election, the voice of the Uchiha family supporting him as Hokage has not weakened over the years."

"On the contrary, it's getting higher and higher."

"But you and I know very well that the Uchiha clan is not to be trusted."
