Chapter 37: Konoha has a traitor, and he is in a very high position

Since you want to restrict me, why should I attend the meeting? You can just handle it slowly on your own. Don't ask me to do such a good thing.

Therefore, Yan refused directly.

Fugaku knew that this was Yan expressing his dissatisfaction with his restrictions.

After Fugaku left, Izumi came in curiously.

"Captain, why don't you attend such an important meeting? The clan leader has already asked you to attend."

In the eyes of others, this might be a good thing because it has gained the attention of the patriarch.

But to Yan, it’s bullshit.

"Attending what?"

Yan said unhappily:

"The so-called meeting is just the elders and the clan leader arguing non-stop. I think you need to give in. I think you want to deprive me of my rights. There is no result from all the arguing."

"Once you lose face, you start to make a scene and say that you don't respect your elders and the elders of the family."

Ever since the incident with the Sixth Elder, the elders of the family have been on guard against Yan, fearing that Yan would attack them one day. Not only would it be embarrassing, but their old bones might not be able to withstand it.

Most importantly, they don't want Yan to break the rules.

If the problem can be solved with words, why resort to violence?

A precedent has been set. If Yan continues to do this, who will respect the younger generations in the family in the future?

When you are in doubt, open your Sharingan and cast an illusion on you?

“This….Hehe.”

Quan laughed dryly twice and was completely speechless.

Since their captain had actually done such a thing, it was no wonder that the elders were always worried about him doing something wrong.

"Why, I see you are very curious, right?

How much of the learning tasks assigned to you have been completed?

Let's go to the training ground and check it out."

"......"

forget it.

Quan shrank his neck and quickly ran away, closing the door behind him.

Although she has tried very hard, she still has a long way to go to reach the standards set by Yan, especially in learning illusion.

Fortunately, Quan is not someone who gives up easily, otherwise he would have become autistic after being scolded by Yan.

The matter of reorganizing the police department was delayed. The elders were unwilling to make concessions, and Fugaku could not be tough and force them to make concessions, so the two sides continued to pull each other.

Danzo's plot to assassinate the Daimyo intensifies.

After Konoha was accused by various villages, even the daimyos of various countries stood up and spoke out jointly, hoping that the Third Hokage would give a reasonable explanation.

It's impossible for Daimyo not to be nervous about this kind of thing.

No matter what happens, even if the war comes to the village, the reputation cannot be affected. This is the bottom line.

Now that Danzo has one foot on this line, it would be strange if the daimyos were not worried.

What if this is a very bad start? With Danzo's start, other villages will be dissatisfied with the Daimyo and start targeting him as well?

The Daimyo of the Wind Country was shocked. As everyone knew, his attitude towards the Sand Village was notoriously bad.

What if the Sand Village gets into a corner and attacks him too?

So the Daimyo of the Wind Country began to connect with the Daimyo of other countries to target Konoha together.

The exhausted Anbu team returned to Konoha and went to see the Third Hokage first.

After returning from the Daimyo's mansion, the Third Hokage felt that something was wrong. Why did the Daimyo get such information out of nowhere?

Why does the intelligence describe such a secretive department like Root so clearly, and even records the history of Root in detail?

The information was definitely leaked by one of our own people.

It's no secret that some special departments exist among the five major ninja villages, such as the roots of Konoha and the hunting team of the Mist Village. These special departments, unknown to outsiders, are well known to the five major ninja villages.

Other villages knew that Konoha had a Root department, but the details and scale of the Root were unknown.

Even some detailed information about the roots is clearly recorded, which explains the problem.

So the Third Hokage sent out a team of Anbu to conduct a detailed investigation into the matter.

The person in charge of this matter was Kakashi, whom the Third Hokage trusted very much.

"Hokage-sama."

In the office, Kakashi knelt on one knee and carefully reported the team's investigation results.

"Through investigations by the daimyo's staff, the source of the intelligence was traced back to the bounty club, and it was eventually confirmed that the intelligence came from the bounty club. The bounty club has already sold a lot of this intelligence, and it is difficult to find out the specific buyer."

Bounty Club.

The Third Hokage frowned deeply and asked, "Have you found out the seller's information?"

"The seller's identity was disguised, and the people in the bounty club were unable to confirm his identity."

Kakashi lowered his head. It wasn't that he didn't try hard, but he really had no way to find it.

The other party is too cunning.

They deliberately chose a bounty club on the border of the Fire Nation to sell information. The bounty club here is remote and has few people coming and going. As a small branch club, they dare not provoke customers who look ferocious.

Naturally, there is no way to find out who sold the information.

Unless Kakashi has the ability to travel through time.

"Hokage-sama, I guess that the person who sold the information must be from the village and is in a high position."

How can ordinary people sell information when they don’t even know the origin of this department?

We also know the detailed information about the root, which speaks volumes.

The inner ghost holds a very high position in the village.

"It can't be them."

The Third Hokage's face began to show age spots and looked a little gloomy. Although he said it was impossible, he was actually beginning to doubt it.

The biggest suspects are several of his old friends.

Danzo would not do such a stupid thing to dig his own grave, so it can be basically ruled out. Apart from Danzo, the rest of the people... are only the two advisory elders, the fat man who is retired at home, Akimichi Norifuge, and Shinnosuke who holds an important position in the Anbu.

Danzo is basically not a suspect.

Unless he had a brain cramp, there was no reason for Utane Koharu and Mitomon En to do such a thing.

Could it be Shinnosuke?

Thinking of this, the Third Hokage shuddered and shook his head repeatedly, because that was his son.

If Yan knew that the Third Hokage even suspected his own son in order to catch the traitor, he would probably die of laughter.

Others have little motivation to betray the village, so the possibility of Qiu Dao taking the wind is also extremely small, unless he is unwilling to stay away from the center of power, so he stabs someone in the back.

People who are power-hungry are suspicious.

The Third Hokage was no exception. At this time, he kept guessing and wondering who had betrayed the village and sold out important information about the village.

"Thank you for your hard work, Kakashi, but you can't rest yet. I need you to lead the team and lurk in the Daimyo's mansion."

"Hokage-sama means......."

Kakashi was stunned for a moment, his eyes full of astonishment and disbelief.
