chapter-827
The news traveled fast, and within an hour the entire village, including the Uchiha Clan, was aware of what happened.
Upon learning that Uchiha Shin was captured by Hyuga Kuroto and is currently detained at the Konoha Ninja Academy, the Uchihas became angry.
Not only did Hyuga Kuroto detain a member of the Konoha Military Police Force, he even went as far as to say, ‘Tell your Patriarch to come to the Konoha Ninja Academy and take him’, making the Uchiha especially angry.
“That damned Hyuga Kuroto… who does he think he is?!”
“He dared to drag Shin all the way to Ninja School in the presence of hundreds of villagers… This will impact our reputation…!”“That son of a bitch must have done this on purpose…!”
“He is trying to insult the entire clan… he must pay the price!”
“Patriarch… we can’t let this slide once again… at this rate, everyone will start to look down on us, we must find a way to teach him a lesson!” said one of the members of the Uchiha Clan.
Fugaku thought about his words, then he looked at Shisui sitting in the corner.
Fugaku is aware of the friendship between Shisui and Kuroto, and he is wondering what Shisui thinks about this matter.
Feeling Fugaku’s gaze, Shisui said, “Patriarch… I will go and bring back Shin.”
Before Fugaku could reply, one of the members of the Uchiha Clan shouted at Shisui, “Humph… are you going to protect him once again? Don’t you see that he is making a fool of us? Do you still want to protect him?”Shisui was taken aback, and tried to explain, “I… I am just–…!”
However, he wasn’t given the opportunity to complete his words as another member of the Uchiha Clan interrupted him, “Don’t bother explaining… you are trying to do what you have always done… but enough is enough…”
Shisui felt cold eyes from many Uchiha and he could feel that everyone was angry at Kuroto.
Shisui looked at Fugaku, hoping that the Patriarch would listen to him, but Fugaku had an indifferent expression. He too was unwilling to slide this matter so easily.
He realized that it would be difficult to calm the clan this time.

Hokage Building
“Hiruzen… I have a feeling that the Uchiha Clan won’t stay silent this time… and once they make a move, it will be difficult for him to resist them alone… Although Might Guy has some strength and will be able to help him if needed, it won’t be enough… we have to prepare a backup if needed.” Said Elder Koharu with a thoughtful expression.
“I have already ordered Anbu squads to be on standby around the Academy… so the situation shouldn’t go out of control.” Replied Sandaime while looking through the window of his office.
Leaning on the walls of Hokage Office, Asuma said, “I don’t think that would be enough. The Uchiha Clansmen have been acting strange since the return of Uchiha Shinichi… who knows what they will do. Even this time… they were intentionally seeking trouble.”
Kakashi agreed with Asuma, “Yes.” And added, “Fortunately, Kuroto decided to take action… otherwise, we would have to step in and that would have made the situation quite complicated.”
Jiraiya nodded, “It seems so.”
No doubt, Kuroto’s actions have offended the entire Uchiha Clan, and Jiraiya was really angry at Kuroto, he even went as far as to scold Kakashi for allowing Kuroto to do what he did, and not stopping the conflict earlier. However, after thinking about the overall situation, he realized nobody other than Kuroto could have solved that situation.
The return of Uchiha Shinichi has made the Uchiha prouder than ever, and in such a situation, Konoha really needs someone who can stand up and suppress the arrogance of the Uchiha Clan.
Hokage can’t do it personally… neither can the members of the Hokage Faction as that would mean discord between the Hokage faction and the Uchiha Clan.
Most of the other people in Konoha don’t have the required strength and background to be able to make a move.
Only Hyuga Kuroto is the right person for this job.
Kuroto has enough strength to defeat most of the Uchiha Clansmen. His family background is strong, he has enough political influence, and most of all, Kuroto’s friendship with Shisui makes him the perfect candidate for this job.
Almost everyone participating in the meeting had the same thoughts as Jiraiya. Except for Elder Koharu who pointed out another fact, “Don’t forget… Uchiha Shinichi has also returned… and if my memory serves me right, Kuroto and Shinichi already had an unsettled matter before Shinichi joined the Akatsuki, what if he tries to make a move?”
Elder Koharu’s words changed everyone’s expression. Even Sandaime was worried now.
The return of Shinichi has definitely weakened Shisui’s influence on the Uchiha Clan, so it won’t be strange if Shinichi goes to the Konoha Academy, and if it is Shinichi who goes instead of Shisui, then the situation would get out of control.
As for the possibility of Fugaku going? Nobody even bothers to consider it; it just doesn’t make sense.
Just when everyone was worried, an Anbu walked in and reported, “The Uchiha Clan has sent Uchiha Shinichi to bring back Uchiha Shin.”
“Tch… damn it!” Tsunade clicked her tongue in annoyance, and asked, “Why not send Uchiha Shisui?”
The Anbu shook his head implying that he had no idea.
Sandaime sighed and signaled the Anbu to retreat.
The Anbu followed Sandaime’s order and retreated from the Hokage Office.
At this time, Jiraiya said with a sigh, “It seems that they really don’t plan to swallow this humiliation.”
Elder Koharu said, “We should consider the worst possibility… And prepare accordingly.”
“It seems we have no other choice.” Muttered Tsunade, and asked, “Sensei… what did the Hyuga Patriarch say about this?”
Hiruzen shook his head, “Nothing.”
Tsunade was taken aback, “Have they decided to abandon Kuroto?”
Hiruzen replied with a thoughtful expression, “It’s not impossible… Kuroto did have a conflict with the elders of the main family of Hyuga Clan… they weren’t able to do anything to him, it’s possible that they want to teach him a lesson using this opportunity.”
“Coward!” muttered Tsunade under her breath, “What the hell is up with the Hyuga Clan? They were never like this? First the matter with Hizashi and now Kuroto… have they really gone senile?”
Hiruzen shook his head, “I am as clueless as you are.” Then said “Let’s put the matter of the Hyuga Clan on the side for a while… for now… focus on the matter of the Uchiha Clan. They have sent Shinichi, and we have to take countermeasures.”
Jiraiya said, “If a battle breaks out at the academy… the lives of children will be in danger, we have to consider this as well.”
At this time, Kakashi took a step forward, and said, “In that case, let me handle this.”
