With Shisui's death, Konoha and Uchiha will be wary of each other, and this period will be a sensitive period.
However, although it is a sensitive period, it is also the best time to persuade the Uchiha clan.
At night, Kobayakawa Kazuma put on a mask and sneaked into the Uchiha clan's territory. On the way to the Uchiha clan, Kobayakawa Kazuma met five Anbu. Fortunately, with the help of the Byakugan, he was able to easily avoid these Anbu and finally sneak into the target location.
Uchiha Fugaku's home naturally became the focus of Anbu's surveillance. Kobayakawa Kazuma finally sneaked into the yard and knocked on Uchiha Fugaku's door.
"Mr. Fugaku." Kazuma Kobayakawa greeted softly.
Uchiha Fugaku opened the door, leaving a crack, and welcomed Kobayakawa Kazuma in.
The room was pitch black, and one could only vaguely see Uchiha Fugaku's face with the moonlight coming through the window.
"Shisui is dead, and Itachi has opened the Mangekyō Sharingan. Once he masters the use of the Mangekyō Sharingan, he will become a genius who is not inferior to Shisui in a few years." Uchiha Fugaku said affirmatively while sitting cross-legged on the ground.
Uchiha Shisui was a genius of the Uchiha clan, and his death greatly reduced the strength of the Uchiha clan. Fortunately, Uchiha Itachi opened the Mangekyō Sharingan, and Fugaku believed that Itachi would definitely make up for this combat power.
As long as Uchiha Itachi exists, the Uchiha clan still has the qualifications to challenge Konoha Village.
"You called me here, not to show off to me that your son has opened the Mangekyō Sharingan, right?" asked Kazuma Kobayakawa in a cold voice.
Uchiha Fugaku shook his head. "You said that if one day you feel you can't hold on any longer, you can entrust my wife and children to you. Itachi is already grown up and has his own ideas, but Sasuke is still very young. I hope you can take him and Mikoto away."
Kobayakawa Ichima couldn't help but smile and asked, "As the head of the Uchiha clan, you took the lead in sending your wife and children away. Aren't you afraid of arousing suspicion in the village and causing dissatisfaction among the Uchiha clan members?"
"Afraid!" Uchiha Fugaku's face showed a solemn expression. He confirmed his thoughts and explained, "But now is the best time. Shisui's death can shut up Konoha. As for my clansmen, I believe they will understand."
"A week later, still at night, behind the Hokage Rock, my people will send them away." Kobayakawa Kazuma didn't say much nonsense. After the conversation, he left Uchiha Fugaku's house.
It seems that Fugaku is not a guy who doesn't know how to adapt. The death of Uchiha Shisui at least made him think about protecting his wife and children.
Taking advantage of the night, Kazuma Kobayakawa slipped back to the embassy.
He called over the female ninja who usually delivered messages, and under the bright lights, asked, "Tomoko, how long have you been on missions in Konoha?"
Tomoko lowered her head and replied, "It has been ten years now. When I came here, the Third Mizukage was still in office."
"I heard that you are an orphan. Do you have anyone you care about?" asked Kazuma Kobayakawa again.
Tomoko seemed to have sensed something. She raised her head with a look of rebellion in her eyes: "I hope to kill Yagura and restore the Kirigakure when the Third Mizukage was in power."
Tomoko is an orphan rescued from the battlefield by the Third Mizukage Eiji Hozuki. She has deep feelings for the Hozuki clan. After Yagura's plan to cleanse the bloodline limit family broke out, the Hozuki clan was naturally the first family to be persecuted.
"I will fulfill your wish for you. Now there is a task that you need to complete. The wish of the Third Mizukage must be fulfilled tonight." Kobayakawa Kazuma gave her the task of escorting Uchiha Mikoto out of Konoha.
Although Tomoko is only a Chunin, it is indeed difficult to find someone better than her in Konoha.
After all, as an ambassador, Kazuma Kobayakawa certainly cannot go out to send people off in person. Once he intervenes, it will become a conflict between the Hidden Mist Village and Konoha.
After explaining, Kobayakawa Kazuma added: "It would be best if you can complete the mission successfully, but once the matter is exposed, your identity must be kept secret."
Tomoko did not answer immediately. She just took out a kunai from her ninja tool bag and scratched a deep scar on her face.
"For the Hidden Mist Village, I know what to do."
"Go." Kazuma Kobayakawa sighed. Tomoko's beauty could barely reach C level, but now that she has destroyed her own appearance, it is estimated that her beauty will be reduced to E level.
However, the world of ninja is inherently cruel, just like when Hoshigaki Kisame chose to kill his companions after the mission failed.

In order to avoid suspicion, Kobayakawa Kazuma did not visit the Uchiha clan again in the following week. Just the day before the mission, he made an appointment with Yuhi Kurenai to sightsee around Konoha.
"Kazuma Kobayakawa, today is the day to commemorate our friend, why don't you come along?" When they arrived in front of the Hokage's office, Kurenai Yuhi suddenly suggested.
Only then did Kazuma Kobayakawa realize that Kurenai Yuhi had already made an appointment with Kakashi and the others, so he agreed.
"I also want to meet the ninjas who defend Konoha Village." Kazuma Kobayakawa followed Yuhi Kurenai and the other two.
It seems that Hatake Kakashi still can't stand Kobayakawa Kazuma. He glanced at Kobayakawa Kazuma coldly and suddenly asked:
"Kobayakawa Kazuma, is Orochimaru's defection related to you?"
"Orochimaru? Is he one of the three ninjas of Konoha?" Kobayakawa Kazuma smiled and asked back.
"Tsk!" Seeing that Kobayakawa Kazuma was playing dumb, Kakashi had to shut up and stopped asking. Orochimaru's defection was because the human experiment plan was discovered, and it was probably nothing to do with Kobayakawa Kazuma.
Soon, the group arrived not far from the cemetery. Kakashi and the other two went into the flower shop to choose flowers, while Kobayakawa Kazuma entered the cemetery first.
The grass was a little yellow and withered, and tombstones with names on them were neatly arranged. Kazuma Kobayakawa vaguely saw a figure in black clothes. At first, he didn't pay much attention.
However, that figure suddenly disappeared.
Then, Kazuma Kobayakawa felt something appear behind him.
Relying on his instinctive intuition, Kazuma Kobayakawa immediately used the technique of instant body movement to escape. He turned around and saw a guy wearing a white vortex mask standing there. With his eyes as the center, the space was layered and distorted in a circular shape.
Kobayakawa Kazuma's face darkened, and as he looked at the familiar Sharingan, his heart sank instantly.
Uchiha Obito, why is this guy here? Shouldn't he stay in the Blood Mist Village and control Yagura?
"You saw me." Uchiha Obito's voice was very low and there was a sense of fear in it.
Kobayakawa Ichima quickly pretended not to know him and said, "I have some friendship with your clan leader, Uchiha Fugaku. Since you are a member of the Uchiha clan, we are friends."
"Hmph, do you think I will spare your life just because you mentioned Fugaku?" Uchiha Obito was unmoved. His right eye distorted the space and sucked his body into the different space.
Kobayakawa Kazuma knew Obito's information and also knew that this guy had not left yet. Now it seemed that he could not escape without some tricks.
If it really doesn't work, just fight here.
Chou, Xu, Chen, Zi, Xu, Hai, Si, Yin, the art of shadow clone.
Kazuma Kobayakawa immediately created eight shadow clones, and then the eight shadow clones jointly performed the Mist Hiding Technique, turning the entire cemetery into a world of thick fog.
In the thick fog, the eight shadow clones dispersed, and the real Kobayakawa Kazuma mixed in with the shadow clones and fled out of the cemetery.
Not long after, Kazuma Kobayakawa received the information that the shadow clones were destroyed. Two shadow clones were attacked and forced to dismantle.
"Kazuma Kobayakawa, what on earth are you doing in our Konoha's cemetery?" Suddenly, the voice of Kakashi Hatake broke into the thick fog.
Then, Asuma Sarutobi performed ninjutsu.
A strong wind blew and dispersed the fog in the cemetery. In the fog, only Kobayakawa Kazuma and his six shadow clones were left.
It was obvious that Uchiha Obito had already left when Kakashi and Asuma appeared.
Kobayakawa Kazuma couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He never expected that he would be saved by Hatake Kakashi.
He had been trying his best to avoid meeting Obito, but he didn't expect that things would be so coincidental.
"I was just attacked." Kazuma Kobayakawa put the kunai in his hand into the ninja tool bag and said lightly.
"What lies are you telling? How could there be anyone else here besides you?" Kakashi grabbed Kobayakawa Kazuma's collar. He naturally would not believe what Kobayakawa Kazuma said. In his opinion, Kobayakawa Kazuma simply wanted to destroy the place where they placed their hearts.
"Kakashi, Kobayakawa didn't lie, someone really came here." Sarutobi Asuma spoke up. He lowered his head, stroked a piece of grass under his feet, and said solemnly, "The footprints are still fresh, but they are not from any of us."
"Really... there's someone?" Kakashi Hatake then let go of his hand and stopped bothering Kazuma Kobayakawa.
Kobayakawa Kazuma did not pursue the matter, but Obito's existence reminded him. Uchiha Obito's space ninjutsu is almost unsolvable. How can he break that ninjutsu?
The first thing he thought of was to steal Kakashi's Sharingan, but on second thought, he gave up the idea.
Obito clearly had the ability to retrieve the other Sharingan at any time, but he didn't. Wasn't it because this eye was given to his former best friend?
But if he took away Kakashi's Sharingan, Obito could take it back unscrupulously. Uchiha Obito, who had double Mangekyō, had no way to deal with it.
As dusk approached, Kazuma Kobayakawa found an excuse to go to Yuhi Kurenai's house and had dinner there.
After several years of getting along, his relationship with Xi Ri Kurenai has become pretty good.
At dusk, Kakashi also reported to the Anbu and continued his mission.
Because of the death of Uchiha Shisui, the Uchiha clan has been ready to take action, so the Anbu has been particularly busy recently.
My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!
Under the order of the Third Hokage, Konoha banned the Uchiha clan from entering and leaving the village at will. Now in Konoha Village, only Uchiha who went out are allowed to come back, but Uchiha inside are not allowed to leave.
Although Hatake Kakashi was somewhat worried about the situation of the Uchiha clan, he thought that this situation would not last too long, as the Uchiha would eventually reconcile with the village.
"Leaving the village so late?"
The alert ninja's casual greeting caught Kakashi's attention. He vaguely felt that the two women in front of him were very familiar, and it seemed like he had seen them somewhere before.
Kakashi did not give up his intuition. He pulled off his mask and used the observation power of the Three-magatama Sharingan to further confirm the abnormality.
She is an Uchiha, and looks like the wife of the Uchiha clan leader.
"You, are not allowed to leave." Kakashi said calmly. The relationship between the village and the Uchiha clan was already very tense. At this juncture, the Uchiha clan not only did not think about how to ease the relationship with the village, but the clan leader's wife actually wanted to escape.
Uchiha clan, are you planning to defect from Konoha?
Hearing Kakashi's voice, Tomoko threw out a kunai immediately. The guard ninja closest to her barely avoided the vital points and shouted at the top of his voice.
"Enemy attack!"
Tomoko fled quickly with Uchiha Mikoto. She knew very well that it would only take two or three minutes for Konoha's Anbu to arrive, and after that, they would never be able to escape.
Hatake Kakashi hurriedly chased after him. He knew very well that if he could delay them for five minutes at most, the rest of the Anbu would come to support them and the matter would end there.
Tomoko and Mikoto were running away in front, and behind them, Hatake Kakashi was following closely.
Suddenly, several kunai and shurikens flew out from the bushes. Kakashi paused slightly and avoided the attack.
Then, two ninjas appeared from the bushes, both holding kunai in their hands, and attacked Kakashi.
These two people were naturally arranged by Kobayakawa Kazuma. They were mercenaries hired for money and they themselves did not know Kobayakawa Kazuma's identity.
"Tsk!" Kakashi condensed a Chidori in his hand, and lightning flashed like a bird's cry. He rushed towards the mercenaries quickly, and with just one strike, he pierced through the bodies of two mercenaries.
Chapter 79: A tough moment
The two mercenaries fell under the attack of Chidori. Hatake Kakashi looked forward and saw Tomoko rushing towards him with the kunai in her hand flashing with cold light.
Kakashi Hatake pulled out his hand that had pierced the enemy's body, and splattered a large amount of blood on the ground. He took out a kunai from his ninja tool bag, swung it quickly, and knocked the kunai in Tomoko's hand directly out of his hand.
Then, the kunai swung again, cutting a deep and long cut on Tomoko's arm.
A large amount of blood was spilled, and Tomoko couldn't help but step back, her expression slightly cold.
Her arm was broken! In the previous fight, Kakashi severed the tendons in her arm and she had lost the ability to move.
For a ninja, having an arm disabled is definitely a big deal. Having no arms means being unable to make hand seals and performing most ninjutsu.
