Infinite Simulation: From Konoha To Moon

Chapter 20: Common Sense Replacement

"We have nothing to talk about."

Kakashi directly rejected Li Xiang's voice invitation.

He lowered his eye mask and used the Sharingan to check on Sarutobi Hiruzen's condition.

But it was destined to be in vain.

"Kakashi, do you know how you managed to keep your Sharingan?"

After waiting for a moment, Li Xiang asked.

"It was my teacher, the Fourth Hokage."

Kakashi's gaze shifted to Li Xiang.

He had given up on unraveling the eye technique used on Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"The Fourth Hokage went to great lengths for you as his disciple."

Li Xiang sighed and shook his head. "He resisted the pressure from the entire Uchiha clan for your sake, and not just that, right?"

"What do you mean?"

Kakashi furrowed his brow.

Li Xiang's attitude made him feel somewhat puzzled.

He naturally knew everything his teacher had done for him.

Because of the accidental killing of Rin, he had been plagued by guilt.

And Minato had him join the Anbu, change his environment, and serve as Kushina's guard, hoping that he could witness the birth of new life and escape the darkness.

It should be noted that Kushina was the Nine Tails Jinchūriki, and her pregnancy was when she was most vulnerable. Kakashi being able to serve as her guard relied on Minato's guarantee.

"But what about you? How have you repaid the Fourth Hokage?"

Li Xiang pointed outside. "You should be well aware of Uzumaki Naruto's situation. He is alone and misunderstood by the villagers, who mistake him for the Nine-Tailed Fox. For a five-year-old child, his situation is worse than yours."

"That's because... Hokage-sama..."

Kakashi tried to explain.

"The orphan of a hero is treated unfairly, and yet you dare not do anything."

Li Xiang interrupted him with disappointment. "When the Fourth Hokage sent you to the Anbu, it wasn't to make you a obedient machine. Have you reached a point where you can't distinguish right from wrong?"

Kakashi fell silent.

The Short Sword in his hand clattered to the ground.

"Your life was given to you by Minato."

Li Xiang picked up the Short Sword from the ground and handed it to him. "If you truly have a conscience, leave the Anbu and from today onwards, support Uzumaki Naruto. He will be starting school next year, and you can teach him. After all, he is the Fourth Generation's son. He shouldn't be worse off than others."

Kakashi held onto the Short Sword and looked at the ten-year-old boy in front of him, feeling a bit embarrassed.

In these years, he had truly lived like a dog.

His own experiences were certainly tragic, but what about his teacher's and Naruto's? Weren't they also tragic?

His teacher had tried to save him back then, and he had the opportunity to save Naruto, but he had delayed it for five years.

"Thank you."

Kakashi put away the Short Sword and felt a bit dazed at the moment, but he chose to follow his heart and said, "I'll go find Naruto."

As for the Hokage, he didn't want to deal with it anymore, and he couldn't deal with it either.

Rather than leaving his life here, it would be better to use it to repay his teacher.

"If Minato and Kushina were to hear what you just said, they would be very happy."

Uchiha Fugaku glanced at him and praised.

His wife, Mikoto, and Kushina were best friends, and their relationship was very good.

This was also why Li Xiang said that if Uchiha Fugaku had saved Minato during the Nine Tails incident, the outcome would have been completely different.

"It's nothing. It would be beneficial for us to bring Uzumaki Naruto, the Nine Tails Jinchūriki, to our side."

Li Xiang casually gave a reason and looked at Shisui, asking, "How is it?"

"It'll be ready soon."

Shisui replied when he had a moment.

"What should we do next to eliminate Danzo?"

Waiting is boring. Uchiha Fugaku spoke up again.

The Uchiha clan harbored deep hatred towards Danzo, with no good feelings whatsoever.

Almost all of the oppression they faced came from him and his Root.

If they could get rid of him, Li Xiang and Uchiha Fugaku would definitely increase their prestige within the Uchiha clan.

The so-called internal harmony within the clan relied entirely on Danzo.

"I was thinking of finding an excuse to lure him out before, but now I have a better plan."

A smile appeared on Li Xiang's face. "We can kill him openly and gain the support of the people."

"Is that even possible?"

Uchiha Fugaku asked instinctively.

After all, they were members of the Uchiha clan.

Their reputation in Konoha was worse than that of dogs.

"Danzo has offended too many people."

Li Xiang snapped his fingers and said, "So the first thing we'll do after taking control of the Hokage is to convene a clan leader meeting."

Uchiha Fugaku had some vague ideas, but he still couldn't figure out the specifics of how to proceed.

He looked at Li Xiang, who was brimming with confidence and assured victory, and couldn't help but sigh that he was getting too old and should pass the stage to the younger generation.

"I have replaced his common sense."

Shisui closed his Mangekyō Sharingan and said.

Li Xiang listened to these words and found them strangely familiar.

It was something that often appeared in hypnosis novels.

Unfortunately, it wasn't a beautiful girl, but an old man.

Ahem.

Li Xiang said, "In that case, let him issue the notice and hold the meeting tomorrow."

Shisui nodded.

Soon, Sarutobi Hiruzen regained consciousness. He looked at the three Uchiha in front of him and said, "I have obtained evidence of Danzo's crimes and will announce it at tomorrow's meeting. I hope that the Konoha Police Department will fulfill its duties."

"Please rest assured, the Konoha Police Department has always carried out its duties impartially."

Uchiha Fugaku suppressed his excitement and replied.

The Konoha Police Department had not exercised its true power for a long time.

It had been suppressed in various ways and now only functioned as a municipal management department.

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled with relief and said, "Danzo and Root have been operating for a long time and have immense power. Only your police department has the courage to do this."

Li Xiang glanced at Shisui upon hearing this.

Why didn't the replacement of common sense include the ability to replace this polite conversation?

The order was quickly issued through the Anbu.

Li Xiang took a moment to look at Uzumaki Naruto.

As an optimist, he readily accepted the sudden appearance of Kakashi without much thought.

He was always a lonely child.

In the beginning of the original story, he often used pranks to attract attention.

Now that there was a Kakashi, he naturally felt happy.

Li Xiang returned to the clan territory and heard someone calling him.

"Brother Lang!"

Little Sasuke ran happily to him and asked, "Why haven't I seen you in the past few days?"

Not only Uchiha Lang, but also his father and older brother had all disappeared, making him feel lonely.

"There's just too much going on."

Li Xiang rubbed his little head and asked, "Do you want me to teach you ninjutsu again?"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Sasuke's eyes lit up with anticipation.

He was overjoyed when Uchiha Fugaku praised him last time.

"I don't have much time recently, but I can introduce you to a teacher."

Li Xiang thought of Kakashi.

Sasuke's talent in Lightning Style was stronger than Fire Style.

He could even create an S-rank Lightning Style ninjutsu, Kirin, which was known as the Ultimate Lightning Style.

In fact, it could be seen from the original story that Kakashi leaned more towards Sasuke because he believed that Sasuke could inherit his Lightning Style legacy.

Uzumaki Naruto, on the other hand, belonged to a different system and was not good at it.

"If I remember correctly, you'll be entering the academy next year, right?"

Li Xiang asked as he walked.

"Yes."

"How about I give you a task?"

"What task?"

Sasuke's eyes immediately lit up.

He loved playing ninja games with Uchiha Itachi.

"Itachi was the first in his class last semester..."

"I'm definitely going to be the first too!"

Sasuke interrupted Li Xiang before he could finish.

Li Xiang wasn't angry and smiled, "But being the first alone won't surpass your brother. But I have a way to make Itachi admit that he's not better than you."

"Really?!"

Sasuke jumped up and grabbed Li Xiang's arm, saying, "Brother Lang, tell me quickly!"

"With your talent, it shouldn't be difficult to become the first in your class."

Li Xiang said with a smile, "But becoming the leader among the students is not easy. If you can make all these outstanding students follow you, naturally you will surpass Itachi. Because he didn't accomplish this."

Sasuke's class had the so-called Konoha Twelve, who almost wiped out all the heirs of the major ninja clans in Konoha.

If he could really complete this task, he could practice how to become Hokage in advance.

Thanks to the generous donation from the big boss for the difficulty of the name.
