-------------------------------------------------------------

The meeting attended by the Elders and even the Hyuga Clan had nothing to do with the Uchiha.

As the head of the Hyuga Clan, Hiashi naturally took a seat among the Elders at the meeting.

"Everyone, let’s keep it brief. Please take a look at the documents first."

The Third Hokage had already had the contents of the scroll copied and distributed to everyone.

What happened? The Hokage is so tense.

Could it be related to the Daimyo?

Those attending the meeting were full of doubts as they opened the documents.

After a few seconds, everyone’s reactions were in sync; they either squinted their eyes or widened them in surprise, raising their heads to look at the Third Hokage before lowering them to look at the documents again.

"Asuma is way out of line!!!"

Others were too shocked to speak, but Koharu couldn’t hold back, not sparing Asuma just because he was the Third Hokage’s son.

"How could he do something like that in the Daimyo’s office!?

Just because he’s in a bad mood, does he think he can provoke a fellow villager and humiliate the Uchiha without reason?"

"And Kazuki too! Instead of resolving the issue after it happened, he went ahead and attacked Asuma. And look at this, claiming that Asuma bribed the proctors?"

The more Koharu spoke, the angrier she got. She even scolded the proctors:

"Who were the ones that proctored Asuma’s exam back then?"

"...."

Everyone was speechless. Did Asuma really pass the exam through bribery?

The Third Hokage’s face darkened as he coughed and said:

"There was no problem with Asuma’s exam. Although the child has many bad habits, he passed the Special Jonin exam through his own strength."

The proctors might have gone easy on him, but bribery was absolutely out of the question.

However, even among Special Jonin, there are significant differences in strength. Against someone like Kazuki, Asuma stood no chance but to get beaten.

"Is this the proctors’ fault?"

Koharu, furious, threw the document on the table and accused:

"Hiruzen, I warned you long ago that Asuma’s unruly behavior would cause trouble sooner or later, and now look, it has!"

"Yes, Hiruzen, Asuma needs to be properly disciplined. Kazuki also took action, but that’s a minor issue. The most important thing now is that the news has spread all over the Daimyo. It’s clear that the Daimyo is behind this, and he is still watching us, Konoha."

"He might even be targeting you."

Homura stated the obvious, clarifying the situation.

The Daimyo is targeting the Third Hokage. They’re trying to smear his reputation.

Everyone’s hearts skipped a beat, especially Hiashi, who couldn’t help but recall Kazuki’s previous words.

’Could this all be connected to the Uchiha?’

For the Uchiha to escape their current predicament, the best solution would be to bring down the Third Hokage and replace him with someone who doesn’t hold prejudice against the Uchiha.

Like Tsunade, or perhaps Jiraiya.

If this really has something to do with the Uchiha,

Then the Hyuga Clan will have much more to consider.

"Sigh~~~ It’s all because of Danzo."

Torifu, who rarely attended meetings, was dissatisfied with the size of the chair beneath him. The chair was too small and uncomfortable to sit on.

"The Daimyo has been adamant about the village dealing with Danzo. Although Tsunade managed to quell the Daimyo’s anger, some things aren’t so easily forgotten. How can a broken mirror ever be restored?"

This statement was very clear.

It was directly aimed at the Third Hokage.

’Because you refuse to deal with Danzo, the Daimyo is targeting you.’

Torifu’s blunt words caused the Hokage’s office to fall silent.

The people attending the meeting looked at each other, all choosing to remain silent.

When it comes to Danzo, it’s better not to speak up to avoid offending both Danzo and the Third Hokage.

Torifu isn’t afraid, but they dare not provoke both of these formidable figures simultaneously.

"Prepare for the worst."

The Third Ninja War had forced the Third Hokage to retire at that time. The villagers were unhappy with the constant wars, and Konoha had suffered heavy losses.

Facing such a situation, the Third Hokage had no choice but to push Minato to become Hokage.

If this situation repeats itself, what will the Third Hokage do?

"Fatty, don’t say such things!!!"

Homura panicked, hurriedly interrupting him.

’Are you here to attend a meeting or to cause trouble?’

Prepare for the worst?

Why don’t you just say Hiruzen should step down right now!

The Third Hokage’s expression remained calm, but the clenched fists showed that his heart was already in turmoil.

First Danzo, then the Daimyo, and now Asuma—troubles keep coming one after another. With so many incidents piling up, the villagers will start to question, start to doubt the Third Hokage’s ability.

By then, the Third Hokage won’t be able to avoid retirement even if he wants to.

’Alright, alright, I won’t say anything. Pretend I didn’t speak.’

Torifu raised his hand, waved it off, and leaned back in his chair, staying silent.

No one would have expected that before Konoha could come up with a countermeasure, an even bigger bombshell would drop.

At the Daimyo residence, still in the same old place, the same unfortunate aide with a look like his father had died rushed into the Daimyo side.

"Daimyo-sama."

The aide walked to the Daimyo’s side and carefully informed him that there was a situation.

"What is it?"

The Daimyo, busy partying with relatives and friends, frowned in displeasure.

The aide, on the verge of tears, quietly handed him a scroll.

He handed the scroll to the Daimyo and tried to lower his voice as much as possible: "Daimyo-sama, it’s the same source as last time."

"Hmm?"

"What information from last time?"

"...."

’This is bad!!’

The aide didn’t expect the Daimyo to be so blunt and open the scroll directly in front of everyone.

’Will he kill me after he sobers up?’

Recalling the Daimyo’s many warnings last time, the aide wanted to die.

"Let me take a look."

Unaware of his aide’s inner turmoil, the Daimyo squinted his eyes as he read the scroll’s contents.

The Daimyo of the Land of Lightning sitting beside him also leaned over to take a look.

Everyone else was still having fun, and the aide was clueless enough to hand over the scroll, acting all secretive.

’I want to see what precious information is in this scroll.’

Since the Fire Daimyo opened the scroll in public, it indicated that there was no need to hide it from others; it wasn’t a big deal.

Hmm~ Information about Konoha Village.

’The Third Hokage and Danzo have never given up on their research into Wood Release, hoping to replicate the First Hokage’s abilities, and have even sent many war orphans to be experimented on.’

’Even Orochimaru was involved?’

’Good grief, they don’t even spare their own villagers and ninja.’

’Wait!!!’

Before the Fire Daimyo could react, the Lightning Daimyo broke into a cold sweat.

What kind of cursed information is this, and where did it come from?
