Hokage Tower.

Sarutobi Hiruzen rarely dealt with official documents, but instead looked at the scroll on the desk with a serious expression.

Just at this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned. A familiar sound of footsteps came from outside the door. He took a deep breath, put away the scroll on the table, put it in the drawer of the desk, and took a mission report and pretended to read it.

"Huruzen! You let En lose the battle deliberately to give the Fourth Raikage a chance to join Konoha."

"But you can't put all your hopes on the Uchiha!"

"What if they join forces with the Raikage?" Utane Koharu said in a bad tone.

Since they reached a consensus in the office that day, Utane Koharu has been watching from home. But the more she watched, the more panicked she became. He agreed to Sarutobi Hiruzen's plan to lose deliberately because he trusted Sarutobi Hiruzen and believed that Sarutobi Hiruzen must have been fully prepared and confident to do so.

As a result, she didn't see that after Sarutobi Hiruzen mobilized troops to guard against the Fourth Raikage's arrival, the Uchiha family was unable to stop the Raikage's collapse.

What made Utane Koharu most uneasy was that Sarutobi Hiruzen did not make any move to summon Jiraiya and Tsunade.

"Huruzen! You are the strongest Hokage, you and I both know what is going on. Don't fail to summon Jiraiya and Tsunade just because you can't save face."

"If the Uchiha reaches a peace agreement with the Fourth Raikage and forms an alliance, and then turns against us, everything will be over."

Sarutobi Hiruzen put down the paper documents in his hand, leaned back, took out his pipe and smoked, and said in a flat tone: "Uchiha colludes with the Fourth Raikage?"

"It's exactly what I want if they actually do this."

Utane Koharu was stunned: "Are you absolutely sure?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded: "Don't worry! You don't know me yet!"

When Utane Koharu saw that she had no interest in talking to Sarutobi Hiruzen, she tactfully wanted to leave, but was stopped by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Xiaochun! You haven't had anything important to do during this period anyway."

"Go and help me keep an eye on Asuma and supervise his training."

Utane Koharu was startled and asked in confusion: "Supervising training?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and said, "I forcibly captured Asuma from the Fire City, and now he is fighting with me."

"Let him practice and fool me."

"If we send someone else, they will be concerned about Asuma's identity and will not dare to strictly follow the order."

Hearing this, Utane Koharu nodded and walked out of the Hokage's office.

Asuma Sarutobi went to the Land of Fire to serve as the Daimyo's guardian ninja. This was due to Asuma's own rebelliousness, but also because of Sarutobi Hiruzen's deliberate connivance and guidance.

At that time, Sarutobi Hiruzen devoted all his attention and resources to his eldest son, and naturally did not pay much attention to his younger son. Keeping him in Konoha would easily cause conflicts among the brothers.

However, due to Asuma Sarutobi's rebelliousness, his talent was not fully realized.

According to Konoha's ninja files, he was a jonin, but after Sarutobi Hiruzen personally tested him, he found that this jonin was only a special jonin. At that time, Sarutobi Hiruzen was so angry that he almost sent Asuma back to the furnace for recasting.

Then he was forced to sign a spiritual contract with the Ape Demon Clan, and his strength was trained step by step.

After seeing Utatane Koharu leave the office, Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head helplessly and sighed, then opened the drawer again and took out the scroll with "Impure World Reincarnation" written on it.

"Uchiha!~~" Sarutobi Hiruzen looked into the distance and muttered to himself.

··········
Uchiha clan.

Uchiha Yashiro knocked lightly on Wang Ming's door three times, then pushed open the wooden door, walked in and said respectfully: "Great Elder! The patriarch of the Kurama family, Kurama Murasaki, is here to visit, and he wants to see you by name."

Wang Ming, who was playing chess, looked up with a hint of surprise in his eyes. Under Wang Ming's hype, the gap between Uchiha and Konoha was extremely obvious at this time.

Wang Ming relied on the authority of the Police Department to create another power system independent of the Uchiha under the rule of the Hokage.

Uchiha tried to recruit ninjas to join the police department. However, the ninjas were unwilling to accept any other positions except for the urban management system in order to improve the security around their houses.

Apparently, these ninjas are still watching and waiting at this moment.

Or they don't think highly of the Uchiha clan, and are even more unwilling to place a heavy bet on the Uchiha clan.

Actually, this can't be blamed on the ninja clan. It's just that the Uchiha family has a bad reputation. The stronger the strength, the more abnormal the mind. This is not a secret at all in the big family.

Not long ago, Uchiha Itachi, in order to fulfill his ideals, killed his parents with his own hands, and then began to massacre his entire clan, completely scaring the great ninja clan.

Today, Uchiha Itachi slaughtered his own family and parents for the peace of the village.

No one knows whether a ruthless Uchiha will appear tomorrow to wipe out Konoha for the sake of world peace.

Therefore, during this period, the police department only recruited a group of civilian ninjas with dull political sense.

"The Kurama family!"

"The Blood Limit Family that controls the five senses with illusions, interesting!"

"Let him come here!"

Not long after, Uchiha Yashiro walked into Wang Ming's residence with a middle-aged man.

"I am Kurama Murakumo, the patriarch of the Kurama family, and I am honored to meet the great elder Uchiha." Kurama Murakumo bowed deeply to Wang Ming.

“We’re from the same Bloodstain family, so don’t be polite. Just do it!” Wang Ming waved his hand.

Kurama Muyun was not dissatisfied with Wang Ming's cold attitude. In his eyes, Uchiha Setsuna was an existence that crushed him in all aspects. Such an attitude was already flattering to him.

In terms of family inheritance, the Uchiha family wins.

In terms of family blood, the Uchiha still wins.

In terms of family power, Uchiha also won.

In terms of personal strength, Uchiha Setsuna defeated Kurama Mukumo in seconds.

"I wonder why you are here, Chief Anma?" Wang Ming asked straight to the point. He didn't have the patience to play witty games with him.

Kurama Murakumo was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Wang Ming to be so direct, but he immediately restrained his emotions: "The Kurama family is willing to join the Uchiha Police Department."

Wang Ming hesitated for a moment and said, "What are the conditions?"

Kurama Congyun was stunned again. He was still not used to such a direct way of asking and answering.

"I only ask that you, the Great Elder, can personally teach my daughter how to practice."

Wang Ming: “Your daughter?”

Kurama Muyun said: "My daughter Yakumo is the only one in the past generations of our family who has awakened the family blood limit. My strength is limited, and I am afraid that I will delay Yakumo's future."

Wang Ming looked at Anma Congyun's face for a while.

Kurama's real purpose was not to let Wang Ming teach his daughter, but to let Wang Ming accept the Kurama family. Therefore, he deliberately sent his biological daughter as a hostage in the Uchiha family.

Wang Ming thought to himself, "He actually sensed danger. This family is indeed worthy of its long-standing heritage."

How could Wang Mingqi not know what Sarutobi Hiruzen had done?

As long as there is an area covered by the Konoha barrier, there will be no secrets for Wang Ming. Although Wang Ming also monitors Konoha through the Konoha barrier, Wang Ming's technique is stronger than the [Telescope Technique].

The shielding barriers of the major families had no effect on Wang Ming.

The recent atmosphere in the village makes Kurama Muyun feel a little uneasy. (End of this chapter)
