My ninja cat thought I was weak and stole the thunderous fruit

Konoha Village.

Hokage's office.

Shisui did not leave the Hokage Building with his clan members.

Instead, he went directly to the place agreed with Hiruzen.

"Lord Hiruzen."

Shisui stood less than three meters away from the office, his hands hanging down naturally, and his tone of voice was respectful.

"Uchiha Shisui, do you know why I specifically called you here?"

As he spoke, Hiruzen put down the pipe in his hand and focused his gaze on Shisui, his whole person looking particularly sincere.

"Japanese style?"

"That's right." Hiruzen nodded, not showing off on this matter.

Although he said in front of everyone that he saw the shadow of Jing in Hefeng, in his heart, he was the one who truly inherited Jing's will.

Among the entire Uchiha clan, only Shisui is currently the only one.

He is also the only Uchiha he trusts enough.

"I have always felt that if it were you, you would be able to find a way to eliminate the barriers between Uchiha and Konoha."

Hearing Hiruzen praising himself so much, Shisui's expression immediately became serious, and his tone became a little more firm, "I will continue to work hard."

But then again...

How can it be so easy to eliminate the barriers between the two parties?

Even in the recent Uchiha clan meeting, there have been voices trying to launch a coup to change the situation of Uchiha.

Coupled with Zefeng's performance today in criticizing Konoha's top management.

Maybe it will encourage those voices.

That's why Hokage-sama specially asked me to come to his office.

"Very good." Looking at Shisui's statement, Hiruzen nodded with satisfaction.

Then he directly stated his plan.

"I want you to test Zefeng to see if he has the strength to be a jounin."

In fact...

Zephyr faced the Kumo ninja team who held Hinata hostage, one against five.

He also killed Aburame Ryoma instantly in the conference room.

How could Hiruzen not know whether he had the strength of a Jonin?

The reason why he wanted Shisui to examine Zefeng.

First, he wanted Shisui to win over Zephyr and convey the true will of fire to him.

Lead him beyond narrow nationalism.

Contribute your own value to Konoha.

Secondly, Hiruzen also wanted to see how strong Zephyr's full power was.

Compared with Shisui, what a huge gap there is.

"This gentle breeze is like a variable."

"It would be better if his strength is not as good as Shisui, just in case..."

"His strength is on par with Shisui's, and he has joined forces with Uchiha, so that will be more difficult."

certainly……

Hiruzen did not reveal his feelings to Shisui, he spoke slowly.

"If Zefeng really has the strength to be a jounin, it would be a pity to let him continue to stay in the Konoha Guards..."

"A genius like him needs a bigger stage to show himself."

As he spoke, a look of appreciation for talent appeared on Hiruzen's face.

And the implication of his words is...

If Kazuya really has the strength of a Jonin, then Konoha's ANBU would be more suitable for him to show off his talents than Konoha's police force.

By then...

I hope Shisui can convince Zefeng to join ANBU.

If Zefeng couldn't be led to the right path, then he didn't want to see any genius appear in the Uchiha clan and disrupt his original plan.

"I understand, Hokage-sama."

Zhisui nodded, "I will find some time to test Zephyr's strength."

"It just so happens that I am also very curious about this Uchiha genius."

"Then it's up to you, Shisui." Seeing Shisui agree, Hiruzen picked up the pipe again, took a deep breath of satisfaction, and exhaled a cloud of white mist.

It is no exaggeration to say that he could be said to have watched Shisui grow up.

It can be said that he knows Shisui's character very well.

As an Uchiha who inherited the will of the mirror.

Shisui has had a cheerful and gentle personality since he was a child. Even in battles, he would always stop at nothing and rarely hurt others.

but……

When Uchiha Shisui encounters a powerful opponent, he will go all out because of his passion!

Let him test Zefeng's full strength.

Undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

certainly……

Regarding the fight between Shisui and Zephyr, Hiruzen did not intend to wait for him to bring back the news.

"When the fight between Shisui and Zephyr takes place, let's use the telescope technique to observe it."

However, Hiruzen would not specifically explain these trivial matters.

After explaining everything that needed to be explained clearly, Hiruzen stretched out his hand to signal.

Shisui can leave on its own.

"Yes, Hokage-sama!"

Shisui bowed deeply to Hiruzen before turning and leaving the office.

Wait until Hiruzen is the only one left in the room.

A sharp look flashed in Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes.

"When the Uchiha clan's problem is solved, I should find a way to keep Danzo away from the center of power in Konoha..."

It wasn't just Danzo's behavior today that made him dissatisfied.

On many issues, Danzo's thinking is too direct.

If someone like him is allowed to rise to the center of Konoha's power, problems will arise sooner or later.

only……

If he wants to deal with the Uchiha clan, he still needs Danzo and his root power.

"Whether it's Danzo..."

"Still a member of the Uchiha clan."

"They are not suitable to be the Hokage of Konoha."

…

When Shisui left the Hokage Building, red clouds appeared on the horizon of Konoha.

It indicates that the sky will be dark.

After thinking for a while, Shisui rushed towards the Uchiha station.

Although his heart is for Konoha and he has a strong will of fire.

But his current identity is that he is a spy placed by Fugaku in ANBU.

And Hiruzen left himself behind in front of Fugaku.

Fugaku should be told about the assessment of Zefeng.

have to say……

This is also the reason why Shisui was able to die without being discovered by the Uchiha clan that he was the 25th son.

No matter what happens, he can keep it under wraps.

It took about half an hour to run.

Shisui finally returned to his station.

And the first place he went to was Fugaku's home.

"Master Patriarch, I'm back."

As expected by Shisui, Fugaku was leaning on the doorpost in the courtyard, looking like he had been waiting for a long time.

"Um."

Looking at Shisui who came back, Fugaku nodded without changing his expression, "What did the Third Hokage tell you?"

Although today's Fugaku was reminded by Zefeng that Shisui was a young boy.

But he wasn't ready to give up on Shisui completely just because of Zefeng's one-sided words.

Moreover, he was only half-convinced about He Feng's words.

after all……

Shisui is the best ninja among the Uchiha clan.

Even his own son Weasel was inferior.

"Lord Hokage hopes that I can conduct a Jonin test on Zephyr."

"Jounin test?" Fugaku whispered thoughtfully.

It seems that Hiruzen also wants to win over the Uchiha genius Zephyr.

If he passes the Jonin exam, the next step should be to invite Kazuo to join the ANBU.

He really deserves to be that old fox from the third generation.

"You can handle this matter as you see fit."

Fugaku paused and continued.

"There will be a clan meeting at ten o'clock tonight. I have something to announce to everyone."

"Come here too, Shisui."
