In order to minimize the ill effects of Danzo's rituals and his defection, the Council of Elders announced that Shimura Danzo no longer held the position of Hokage Agent of Konoha, at the same time, he was labelled a fugitive criminal and a rogue shinobi with a reward of several hundred million Ryo for killing and injuring hundreds of Konoha Shinobi.
The position of the Konoha Hokage, as discussed in the meeting, was filled by Sarutobi Hiruzen who immediately took over command of the Village upon Daimyo's approval.
And as discussed in the meeting, an elite team of shinobi led by Elder Koharu to the Lightning Country to negotiate with the Raikage with respect to the handover of Danzo.
In the end, Kuroto was also not idle…
He ordered the Godaime Kazekage Pakura and Yondaime Mizukage Yagura to deploy their people throughout the Shinobi World, especially within the Lightning Country to gather as much information as possible about Shimura Danzo's movements.
Also, he instructed his former subordinates at Konoha Anbu to use their own channels to gather intelligence on Danzo.
Once done, Kuroto waited and focused on other important matters.
On Yui's side, there was soon good news, just a few days after she started to disturb Tsunade-hime for teaching her the Yin seal, Tsunade-hime relented and agreed to teach her the Yin seal. Without a doubt, Senju Tsunade loved her students, so she instantly gave Yui the secret scroll of the Yin Seal.
Because Konoha hospital is very busy these days, so, Yui has no time to go home and give Kuroto the scroll she needs at home, therefore, Yui has no time to go home, he called her to Konoha Hospital during her break time, and gave her a scroll…
After receiving the Yin seal scroll, Kuroto patted Yui on the head, and said, "Don't worry, I'll keep her safe."
Yui nodded, "Jaga Kuroto-kun." then left the room.
After Yui left, Kuroto opened the room window, and said while looking up... “She has already left, you can enter.”.
With Kuroto's words, a shadow leaped into the room.
Whooshing sound…
As the light of the room struck the shadows, their appearance became clear.
A white woman with brown eyes and blond hair, a diamond mark in the middle of her forehead, wearing a sleeveless grey kimono-style blouse, covered with a bluish-gray wide obi that matches his pants. The blouse closed quite low, revealing a fairly large cleavage.
Seeing him standing in front of her, Kuroto muttered, "As expected, this is really you... Tsunade-sama... I wonder what you're trying to do while spying on me and my fiancee."
Tsunade did not reply.she walked up to Kuroto, and noticed her eyes... "You didn't activate your Byakugan, though, you could feel my presence even as I pressed on my chakra. it was quite commendable."
Kuroto chuckled, "Looks like I'm underrated..."
Tsunade nodded, "That's you.." then she looked at the scroll in Kuroto's hand, and asked, "So what's with the Scroll... why do you have it?"
Kuroto apologized, "Sorry about this... I really need the Yin seal... So, I asked Yui to help me get it. Don't blame her."
Tsunade pondered a little, and asked with a sharp gaze, “What do you want to do with the Yin seal? Based on your knowledge of Fuinjutsu, you should already know that the Yin seal cannot be used by men.”.
Faced with Tsunade's question, Kuroto remained relaxed, and replied, “Ingin learned it.. I know what exactly the Yin seal is capable of… so I want to use it to solve the problems I have faced since childhood. I believe that if I can solve that problem, my strength will increase greatly.”
Kuroto nodded, "Indeed..."
Kuroto's reaction was unexpected, and Tsunade inevitably said, “Are you not worried that I will reveal this to the public? Oh... You don't think that just because you're the principal of the Ninja Academy, you won't be punished at all...
After saying such words, Tsunade expected at least some reaction on her face ... Time if you instantly moved to your main destination rather than convoluted? We both know that there is something you want from me. As for what exactly you have to say yourself to me... I will not know it unless you tell me.”.
Hearing Kuroto's words and seeing her composure, Tsunade felt annoyed, and asked, "What makes you think that I want something from you?"
Actually Kuroto replied, "Too clear!"
Tsunade was confused, "How can it be so clear?"
Kuroto explained, “You didn't directly take the scroll from me. Instead, you engaged me in a conversation and tried to intimidate me about the consequences and so on. It's obvious you wanted my help with something… it's just that you don't know how to ask for help, or maybe your pride as a Sannin doesn't allow you to ask for help openly.
Seeing his intentions seen by Kuroto so easily, Tsunade pouted, "Alright.. alright."
Kuroto asked, "Look...is that so hard?"
Tsunade glared, "Defeat, Son!"
Kuroto gave up, "Alright.." then asked, "So, what does Tsunade-sama want me to do for her?"
Recalling the matter, Tsunade's face darkened, and she explained, “Because of Danzo's foolish actions the bastard was greatly affected… And the most troublesome problem was that the Uchiha Clan that had been silent until now had started to become restless again.”
The Uchiha Clan's desire to take over the position of Konoha's Hokage never receded.
It's just that due to the pressure from eternal enemies like Akatsuki and Amatsukami, they have to curb their will and cooperate with the Hokage faction… This was definitely not their intention but the only choice they had to make in order to survive.
The current situation does not seem that bad. On the surface, Amatsukami seems to have reached an agreement with the village and defended the shinobi and Konoha worlds from the threat of the Akatsuki Organization.
At the same time, due to the destruction of the village, Danzo's ruthless actions, and the deaths of several thousand Konoha shinobi in a very short span of time, the Hokage faction's reputation is no longer what it used to be. Although they had chosen Sarutobi Hiruzen again as Hokage, internally they were also frustrated…
This had provided an incredible opportunity for the Uchiha Clan, and some members of the Uchiha Clan had started to think about this opportunity.
Obviously, this did not go unnoticed by Kuroto.
Tsunade continued, “I have received reliable information from my source..In their last Clan meeting, the Uchiha Clan began to openly discuss the steps they would take to fight over the Hokage position… Although this is not a problem at this point.. however, it can become troublesome as time goes by.”.
"And?" kuroto asked, knowing exactly where he was heading.
Tsunade sighed, "I'll come clean to you. The village needs the explicit support of the Hyuga Clan!"
