The Rise of the Uchiha

The atmosphere in the Hokage Building was somewhat solemn. The envoy from the Hidden Cloud Village had just left, leaving behind a silence.

Uchiha En sat quietly on the chair, his expression calm and composed. Namikaze Minato looked at him with a very complicated look, as if he had a thousand words to say, but didn't know where to start.

" Yan, you......" Namikaze Minato finally spoke to break the silence, but he only said two words and then stopped.

" What's wrong, Fourth Hokage? Isn't the problem solved?" Uchiha Yan responded calmly. Namikaze Minato smiled bitterly and shook his head:"Oh, it's okay. I just didn't expect you to solve the problem so easily."

The first generation was the same back then! And I, perhaps, can only feel helpless like him when facing Uchiha Madara. Uchiha Yan is really too domineering......"

He thought to himself, maybe this is one of the reasons why the Third Hokage wanted to be on guard against the Uchiha clan.

At this time, Uchiha Yan stood up and prepared to turn around and leave." Then I will take my leave first" He said calmly.

However, Namikaze Minato quickly reached out to stop him:"Yan, please wait a moment. Regarding the matter of the Hyuga clan, I hope you can report to me in detail."

Uchiha Yan nodded in agreement. Then, he swept his eyes over the other people present, and finally landed on the four members who had just been dismissed.

" Mr. Fourth Hokage, if possible, can you let these insignificant people leave first? After all, some things are not suitable for too many people to know." After saying this, he glanced at the four people intentionally or unintentionally.

"you……"

"Uchiha Yan, even though we have abdicated now, it is undeniable that we are still part of Konoha."

Uchiha Yan raised his lips slightly, revealing a disdainful smile:"Oh? If I remember correctly, you are still suspected of the"Nine-Tails Rebellion"! This matter has not been thoroughly investigated. Although the Fourth Hokage trusts you very much, I don't say much on weekdays. However, today is related to the matter of Kumogakure, I think you should all go home obediently."

After hearing this, the four people's faces became very ugly.

"If you abdicate, you should behave like an abdicater!"

At this time, Minato Namikaze, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke up:"Yan, the Sandaime and the others......"

Before he could finish his words, Uchiha En interrupted him and said,"Fourth Hokage, you are the Hokage of Konoha. You are so tolerant in investigating the four of them, and you are lenient with the four major families. I know you care about the old relationship, but they are still the four major families. They are nothing but time bombs for Konoha!"

Hearing this, the four people were dumbfounded and couldn't believe it. Because aren't these words exactly the same as how they treated the Uchiha clan in the past? ?

It's really a matter of time.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up slowly with a bitter face, and said softly:"Let's go." There was a hint of helplessness and frustration in his voice.

"Hiruzen, are we really leaving like this?"Utatane Koharu questioned, seemingly dissatisfied with the decision. Sarutobi

Hiruzen sighed deeply and replied,"Alas! It's come to this point, there's no point in saying more, let's go." His eyes were full of fatigue and powerlessness. Danzo snorted coldly, expressing his dissatisfaction, but did not say anything more, and turned away first. Seeing this, the other three people followed his footsteps and walked out of the room. The legendary four-member team of Konoha Village - Konoha F4 Just leave.

The moment they stepped out of the door, the entire Hokage office became unusually quiet, with only Namikaze Minato, Uchiha En and Hyuga Hiashi left.

Since entering the Hokage's office, Hyuga Hiashi has remained silent and said nothing. He sat there quietly, as if blending into the surrounding environment. Uchiha En couldn't help but feel emotional. The Hyuga family's style of doing things was really...

They never actively interfered in the affairs of Konoha Village, but just obeyed orders and sent manpower and material support. Whether it was necessary to send troops or funds, the Hyuga family would execute without hesitation. It is precisely because of this that they have been able to survive in the long river of history. Even in the middle and late stages of the original story, the Hyuga was still one of the powerful tribes.

This is because they were scared by Sarutobi Hiruzen's operations. The Senju clan disappeared inexplicably, the Uchiha clan suffered severe suppression, and the Uzumaki clan suffered the disaster of national destruction.

These changes were caused by a series of decisions made by Sarutobi Hiruzen. Perhaps it was because of these reasons that the Hyuga family chose to keep a low profile and stay away from the political disputes in Konoha Village.

" Yan, Hyuga clan leader, I need to know all the details of today's intelligence"

"The story is not complicated. My Shadow Corps noticed that the ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village were quietly sneaking into the Hyuga clan, so I followed them secretly. When I got close to the ninja, I used an illusion to control him, intending to force him to tell me the purpose of their infiltration into the Hyuga clan and related information. However, unexpectedly, the controlled ninja was covered with a large number of detonating tags!"

Hearing this, the head of the Hyuga clan became solemn, and he shook his head and said,"We don't have any new discoveries. My daughter's disappearance is too bizarre, as if she suddenly evaporated from this world. We have carefully searched the surrounding areas, but we can't find any clues or traces."

Then, Namikaze Minato asked Uchiha Yan,"Yan, in your opinion, is this really the work of the Hidden Cloud Village?"

Uchiha Yan was silent for a moment and replied,"The information we have at hand is still very limited and difficult to determine. I just threatened the envoy of the Hidden Cloud Village, but it all happened so coincidentally. The ninja who sneaked into the Hyuga clan was more like a death warrior. Therefore, I think this incident is very likely related to the Hidden Cloud Village."

"Um……"The Hyuga clan leader nodded thoughtfully, agreeing with Uchiha Yan's opinion,"I have a similar guess."

"The question is how they kidnapped the person. Ever since the messenger from the Hidden Cloud Village entered Konoha, the Shadow Ninja has been monitoring them."

"Are there other forces involved?"

"Very likely."

The three discussed for a long time, but could not come to a conclusion.

Hyuga Hiashi's face became more and more ugly.

Namikaze Minato comforted:"Don't worry, Hyuga clan leader, I will also send the Anbu out to look for it."

"Thank you very much, Hokage-sama."
