I, Hikaru Uchiha, join the chat group

Chapter 74 Why is it her again?
That afternoon.

Two preliminary investigation reports on the "Incoming Kirigakure" were sent to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

One was from the security force, and the other was from the ANBU.

The content is basically the same, but the perspective is slightly different.

After reading the contents of the two reports, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately summoned Jiraiya and two consultants and began an intense discussion.

"To think that something like this could happen... What exactly is the Kirigakure Village trying to do? Is it to declare war on Konoha?"

"How did they sneak in? A dozen Kirigakure ninjas appeared directly in the hinterland of Nanga River without any warning. Are the people in the barrier class so lax?"

"besides……"

After turning to bed, Xiaochun looked at a name mentioned in both reports and frowned: "Why is it her again?"

"cough……"

Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed and explained helplessly: "Although Uchiha Hikaru was indeed involved in this matter, she was not the cause this time... According to the ANBU report present, if she had not taken action in time, Konoha would have been destroyed. The casualties may be more serious."

To be honest…

Sarutobi Hiruzen also had a headache.

He was just lucky this morning that this "Grandma Uchiha" behaved very calmly when she came back this time and didn't make any trouble, but in less than a day something like this happened.

Moreover, another ninja village is involved this time. If it is not handled well, it may be a repeat of the incident where the Kumogakure mission kidnapped Hinata Hinata a year ago.

Of course, there are some differences between the two incidents.

After all, Yunyin Village was under the guise of signing a peace treaty, so it was not easy for them to break up openly, while Kirigakure Village just sneaked in and started fighting after a disagreement. Even if he takes a step back, Sarutobi Hiruzen would never dare to ask the current Uchiha clan to hand over the "culprit" to calm the situation. If he really said this, I am afraid that he, the third generation Hokage, would be handed over. corpse...

the other side.

After going to bed, Koharu and Mito Kadoyan looked at each other and chose not to comment.

Next, several Konoha senior officials began to discuss countermeasures.

Although there is no evidence to prove that this is Kirigakure Village planning to launch a large-scale invasion, patrols around the village must be strengthened; the barrier team and the torture team must also work as soon as possible. The former is responsible for strengthening the barrier, and the latter is responsible for interrogating those few A captured Kirigakure ninja; in addition, people must be sent to the Kingdom of Water as soon as possible to issue strong condemnation and questioning to Kirigakure Village for invading other people's territory...

Another point.

The ANBU and Uchiha clan members who died or were injured in this operation need to be compensated as soon as possible. The pension, as well as the corresponding "Hero of Konoha" status, must be implemented. Don't let Uchiha have the idea of ​​favoring one over another.

The priority of this matter was originally relatively low, but because of the existence of Uchiha Hikari, it was abruptly raised by two levels.

The results of these discussions were quickly sorted out and arranged one by one.

So starting from the next day, there were many ninjas coming and going in Konoha Village, especially the ninjas from the Hinata and Inuzuka clans - they were more experienced in patrolling and exploring.

……

Uchiha Hikaru didn't care about these situations.

After all, she was just an "old thing" from the old era. She had taken action against Obito because the other party's actions involved Uchiha. Now that the problem has been resolved, the remaining disputes should be considered by young people like Sarutobi Hiruzen. The younger generations must be given some room to develop.

In fact, this is also an opportunity for the Uchiha clan. In the past, the conflicts between Uchiha and other families in Konoha were mainly due to unfair distribution of interests.

However, if there is pressure from a common external enemy, then many internal conflicts can be temporarily ignored.

As the patrols around Konoha intensified, the Anbu suddenly had more work to do. Uchiha Hikari's original plan to take time to "point out" Itachi and Shisui was temporarily shelved. As the New Year is approaching, she is taking Naruto to buy new year's goods in the commercial street.

As Naruto said before.

Now, the Konoha Village has begun to be decorated with lights, and many stores have put up billboards advertising discounts, attracting a large number of villagers to come out to shop despite the biting cold wind. In just one and a half days, Uchiha Hikari has already seen several familiar people——

Haruno Sakura was led out by her parents to buy new clothes.

Akimichi Choji and his father Akimichi Choji were sitting in a barbecue restaurant eating squid.

Ino Yamanaka helps her family sell flowers to passers-by.

During the surveillance mission, Kakashi came out to buy a refined edition of "Indulgence Paradise" with illustrations...

Several of these people also recognized Uchiha Hikari and greeted her from a distance by nodding or bowing.

Uchiha Hikaru didn't pay much attention.

Naruto was a little curious, raised his little face and asked in a low voice: "Hey, does Sister Guang know so many people?"

"That's right... to be more precise, he was recognized."

Putting aside the memories before time travel, Uchiha Hikaru, as a "remnant of the Warring States Period", has never met Akimichi Choza and others, but was only recognized unilaterally by them.

"Go and try on this new dress."

Uchiha Hikaru casually handed Naruto a set of clothes and motioned for him to go to the dressing room and change into them.

After Xiao Huangmao got dressed and came out, she took a photo and sent it to the group. Aite checked the wave of Minato.

[Buma: Hey, is this the child of Mr. Yongdaimei? I didn't even recognize him. He looks so different from before. His whole mental state is different. Has he grown taller? 】

[Yong Daimei: It shouldn’t be that fast. After all, he is only four or five years old now. However, he is indeed much more cheerful and lively than last time. I am really grateful to Miss Guang for taking good care of me during this time. 】

[Bulma: Hmm...]

[Buma: Speaking of which, Xiaoguang is celebrating the New Year these days. It looks very lively. Can I go over and have a look? @nameless】

[Unnamed: ...Yes, yes, but I may not have room for you to live here. After all, I am staying at Naruto's house temporarily. 】

[Bulma: It doesn’t matter, I can lay the floor! 】

[Anonymous: That’s not a big deal...]

Previously, Uchiha Hikari did not agree to let Bulma come over, mainly because the situation on her side was not yet stable and there might be some unpredictable dangers. But now, Danzo is lying down. Although Obito and Black Zetsu may take action, she can still fully guarantee Bulma's safety if they only visit Konoha Village for a few days.

[Buma: Okay, let me clean up and come find you this weekend! 】
