Chapter 71: Frustrated Danzo
Konoha.
The Next Day
The sun hangs high in the sky, spreading its heat and light impartially to the ninja world.
"Hey, do you know what I saw"
"What..."
"Kozuki sama training the kids of Uchiha Clan"
"Really?"
"There's a rumor that he took those kids as his students"
"Why those arrogant people..."
On the streets, people stood together forming a circle sharing their thoughts on the recent big news.

Hokage Office
These days Sarutobi was in a good mood, he has already nominated Minato as the Fourth Hokage.
While his friend Danzo was against his decision but the Damiyo of the Land of Fire ultimately made decision in his favour.
At this moment Sarutobi had a perverted smile on his face looking at the sight presented on the glass ball in front.
"Hehe, new generation really didn't let me down"

Looking at the figures of the young girls, Sarutobi really missed his youthful days but now he was already an old man, "thoroughly".
Knock...
Sarutobi immediately put away the wretched expression and straightened up putting the demeanor of the Hokage as the door was pushed open and his old friend Danzo strode in.
"What's the matter, Danzo?"
Sarutobi was curious as he saw the expression on Danzo's face was irritable.
"Hiruzen, when are we going to deal with that Kid"
Danzo after getting beaten by Kozuki last time was left on the bed for a whole month.
After waking up, he was about to gather his whole organization to attack Kozuki but Sarutobi stopped him and told him his plan to deal with Kozuki which he made together with two elders.
When Danzo heard his plan he agreed immediately and also gave the Anbu that Sarutobi was teaching, something that would make sure he would succeed.
Today when he was discussing with Orochimaru about transplanting the First Hokage cells, the root ninja informed him of the rumor outside.
Kozuki+Uchiha, hearing these two names together in succession, Danzo was riled up.
He couldn't wait anymore and came straight to Sarutobi.
"Did something happen??"
Sarutobi guessed that something must have happened that made Danzo so angry.
Danzo informed him about the rumor circulating in the village.
"Do you know the identity of those Kids"
After hearing the whole matter, Sarutobi asked him about the question he was more concerned about.
If they were ordinary Uchiha he won't care much, but if they were someone from the elders of Uchiha then it might be a problem.
"One is the Son of the Patriarch, Uchiha Itachi and other is the genius of Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Shisui"
Danzo naturally received the fully investigated report from the Root Ninja.
"Sigh...
Why can't you just stay quiet"
Sarutobi held his head as his good mood from earlier was destroyed completely.
"Hiruzen, you know the ambitions of the Uchiha Clan, if they cooperate with Kozuki, they would have enough power to fight us or even overthrow our rule"
Danzo was someone who would think the worst from the start and this was one of the reason that he was a coward.
"Two days later, Minato will take over the village as the Hokage, after that I'll fully concentrate on training our trump card, within a year or so I'm confident he'll be ready for the fight"
Sarutobi could only pin his hopes on the Anbu that he was training.
Sarutobi doesn't know why but whenever he thinks to fight against Kozuki, his hands tremble and his heart beats quickly.
This kind of feeling he had once, when he was on his first real mission as a Ninja, and he knew perfectly what this feeling was.
Fear, it was Fear
You should know that Sarutobi had fought so many enemies' which even included Tail Beast, but even then he never had such feeling.
Danzo who heard that he still needed to wait a year to deal with Kozuki was frustrated but even he knew that numbers against Kozuki was useless.
His feat of stunning the whole Mist Army is already famous throughout the Ninja World.
So, he could only pin his hope on their trump card.
"Hurry up, Hiruzen the more time we give him the stronger he gets"
Danzo left after reminding Sarutobi once more of the danger of Kozuki.
"I won't die"
Sarutobi took a deep smoke eliminating the fear of Kozuki from his heart.
Sarutobi knew that if he wanted to keep his rule over Konoha, killing Kozuki was the only way.
"What I did is for Konoha..."
Sarutobi once again consoled himself, using Konoha as a shield.

Patriarch Fugaku Residence.
"Shisui, is it true?"
Fugaku asked looking at Shisui who sat in front.
"Kozuki Sensei, only talked about it with Lady Tsunade, he didn't inform us"
Shisui naturally heard the conversation between Kozuki and Tsunade at the ramen shop.
He was surprised and excited as well, that his idol was going to accept him as his student.
"Haha, it seems that the rise of our Uchiha Clan is near"
Even the stern Fugaku laughed loudly happy for the upcoming good days.
"Shisui, listen carefully to whatever he says, currently there is no one who is stronger him in the Ninja World, with his teachings your strength will have great leap"
Fugaku still remembered the monster A he fought and nearly died but Kozuki defeated him.
Even with his Mangekyo, Fugaku wasn't sure that he could deal with A.
"I understand"
Shisui not only wanted to get strong but also wanted to find the answer to the question that Kozuki asked him.
He believed under his guidance he would be able to find a right answer one day.
