Chapter 80 The Heir

Under the night, the back mountain of the Uchiha tribe.

"Shisui, what's the matter so late?"

Uchiha Itachi stood on the edge of the cliff with a flat face, looking at the raging waterfall, but his attention was always on Uchiha Shisui who just got the news from Danzo.

"Danzo-sama told me that he had already talked to the patriarch about the Uchiha coup." Uchiha Shisui's voice sounded in Itachi's ear.

"Yes."

Uchiha Itachi nodded, staring at the waterfall with Shisui's eyes, his expression finally changed: "Did Danzo-sama say something to you?"

There was hesitation in the words, not because Itachi didn't trust Shisui, but because each performed his duties.

As Shisui who grew up together as a teacher and friend, Itachi and Shisui have a very good relationship, and there are many secrets between the two that neither Uchiha Fugaku nor Sarutobi Hiruzane know.

But Itachi is also very clear that between the village and the family, Shisui can choose the village without hesitation.

But the family is not so easy to abandon after all, and Itachi became hesitant like Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Shisui didn't hide it from Itachi either: "Danzo-sama said that he has already negotiated with Hokage-sama, and when the time comes, I should lead the team to carry out the cleaning plan."

"During this period of time, Fuyue and others will win over the neutral voice in your clan, and try to save as many Uchiha clansmen as possible."

"The time is two weeks. Two weeks later, I plan to let you lead Uchiha's people and Sarutobi's Anbu to attack those radicals, and eradicate them directly before they react."

Recalling the original words of Danzo at that time, Shisui is clear, if there is no accident, the leader should be him, but it may also be Itachi.

After hearing Shisui's words, Itachi's expression changed quickly, but then he hurriedly asked, "What about the clan land? Did Danzo-sama tell you anything?"

Shisui nodded: "After this incident, the Uchiha clan moved back to live in the center of the village, and Hokage-sama also agreed. As for the current clan land, it will be taken care of by the roots."

Itachi breathed a sigh of relief, since Hokage-sama also agreed, then this matter should be done.

It is definitely not a loss to exchange the current clan land for the original clan land in the center of the village.

The affairs of the village and the clan can be resolved, and he has a smile on his paralyzed face that has always been full of sorrow.

The two were silent for a while, only the rustling of the waterfall.

After a while, Uchiha Itachi spoke again, this time his tone was a bit complicated: "Master Danzo, what kind of person is he?"

His tone was hesitant. As a subordinate of Hokage and the captain of Anbu, he shouldn't have asked such a question.

But between Danzo-sama and Hokage-sama, Itachi used to be more inclined to Hokage-sama.

Not only because Sarutobi Hiruzen's father Sasuke Sarutobi, but also because Sarutobi Hiruzen is more friendly and has a firmer attitude towards the village.

As Anbe, Itachi can often see Hokage-sama making concessions for the sake of the village, which makes him feel that Sarutobi Hiruzen is a good Hokage who is dedicated to the village.

But now, his attitude has changed somewhat.

Compared with Sarutobi Hiruzen who has been hesitant, Itachi feels that Shimura Danzo, who has a tough attitude and strong means, is actually a good person.

Facing Itachi's question, Zhishui was stunned, as if he didn't expect Itachi to ask this question.

After thinking for a while, Shisui replied, "Master Danzo is a very protective person."

In fact, Shisui doesn't know what kind of person Danzo is, but because of his parents, he has a good impression of Danzo.

"Once someone provokes the people at the root, or becomes hostile to Konoha, Danzo-sama will fight back immediately, or negotiate with Hokage-sama."

"Although I haven't quarreled with Hokage-sama every time, Danzo-sama has always insisted on his ideas. I didn't quite understand his radical ideas before, but after this war, I understand a lot."

Relying on the contact over the past few years, Shisui tried his best to explain Danzo's character to Itachi.

Itachi listened carefully, interjecting from time to time.

"Sounds like a great guy."

"Of course, I heard from the seniors at Genbu that Lord Danzo often led teams to carry out raid missions during World War II, and Lord Hatake Saun also received guidance under Lord Danzo back then."

One person said one sentence, and the two expressed their opinions based on their contact with Danzo.

But the final result they came to was that Danzo is a complex and strong person with a changeable personality.

Under the same night sky, Danzo was still lying in the courtyard, flipping through the materials collected by Gen Mo.

Sitting quietly at the side, Nonoyu who was watching Danzo's office suddenly asked, "Master Danzo seems to trust Uchiha Shisui a lot?"

Uchiha Shisui didn't have much contact with Nonoyu. I only heard that he was a descendant of Danzo-sama's friend. He didn't have deep seniority in the root, but he was quite famous in the ninja world.

"The strength is very strong, but he is a young man who loves peace." Danzo stopped his movements and replied, "If he is not a member of the Uchiha clan, maybe the fourth Hokage's position will be replaced. .”

"After all, his kind of character is exactly what Sarutobi likes."

"It sounds like Danzo-sama doesn't like him?" Nonoyu asked with a confused face. Sarutobi Hiruzen is an old opponent of Danzo-sama. It is difficult for a person with the same philosophy as Sarutobi Hiruzen to be Danzo favorite.

Danzo smiled, and tapped Nonaiyu's hair with the information in his hand: "You little girl still don't understand what I mean."

"There is no hatred between me and Sarutobi. Although Zhishui's personality is biased towards Sarutobi, he must accept my ideas when he works under my command."

Covering his head, facing Danzo's movements, Nonoyu's eyes under the glasses shone with joy.

This feeling made her very comfortable, just like the emotions brought to her by the bag, it felt like a family member.

"I've started to go from the dark side to the bright side. Someone needs to take over the fundamentals. Do you have any good candidates?" Putting the materials on the table, Danzo rubbed the bridge of his nose and said.

It's a bit annoying to read these materials every day. Although No Naoyu helped to filter out irrelevant news, there are still many things.

He has to find an heir to take over his business at the root, while he manages his popularity with peace of mind.

Hearing Danzo's decision, Nonoyu was anxious: "You should understand the situation at the root. No one can control it except Mr. Danzo."

"This will lead to no one available for me. When the situation unfolds, I will not be able to manage it alone." Danzo thought of what Ryoma did on the front line.

As a subordinate, he is very loyal and capable.

But as a team leader, he still lacks a lot.

 Explain the point issue, one point for two hundred characters, five points for one thousand characters, ten points for two thousand characters, twenty points for four thousand characters.
