Chapter 805: Chapter – 798 Hyuga Kuroto is a Traitor?
"I hereby request Hokage-sama to conduct an investigation." Said Elder Aoyama, bowing to Hiruzen.
After hearing Elder Aoyama's words, the atmosphere in the Conference Room became extremely delicate.
Everyone present in the Conference Hall turned their heads and looked at Kuroto–who was accused of being a traitor by Mizuki.
'This is interesting… at least, coming here so early in the morning wouldn't be a waste.' Thought Tsunade with a chuckle.
None of the people present at the conference expected that this meeting be organized by the Hyuga Clan to question a member of their branch family. Realizing the absurdity of the situation, everyone couldn't help but remember the rumors circulating in the village a few days back. According to the rumors, the branch family of the Hyuga Clan seems to have started resisting the main family of the Hyuga Clan, and it seems that Hyuga Kuroto is leading the resistance.
No one paid much attention to those rumors at that time. After all, the members of the branch family of the Hyuga Clan are marked with the 'Caged Bird' cursed seal, In the face of that seal, any form of resistance is futile, only a fool would try to fight back.
And now that everyone has witnessed such an absurd scene before them, they can't help but realize that it wasn't a rumor. The conflict seems to have already reached an intolerable level that the main family of the Hyuga Clan is trying to involve the Hokage faction as well as other clans in it.
Although Elder Aoyama said about believing Kuroto to not be the traitor, everyone seemed to realize that that's just a façade to maintain his image and the image of the Hyuga Clan in front of the Patriarchs of other Shinobi Clans.
As for the question of whether Hyuga Kuroto is really a traitor or not?
Well, that's hard to say, just as Elder Hyuga Aoyama stated earlier, Kuroto did have a connection with Orochimaru in the past. But this doesn't mean that he is a traitor either. It's entirely possible that this is just an accusation to demean him and use the power of the Hokage faction to suppress him and the branch family since they are unable to control him on their own.
Along with other Patriarchs, Uchiha Fugaku also saw the crux of the matter and his mind started to work on how to use this opportunity for the benefit of the Uchiha Clan.
Honestly speaking, the struggle within the Hyuga Clan has nothing to do with him and the Uchiha Clan. To Fugaku, what's important is the position of the Principal of Ninja Academy.
If Hyuga Kuroto is really the traitor, and he loses his position, then the candidate who will be promoted to the principal's position is Shisui–the current vice-principal.
Shisui as the Principal of Konoha Ninja Academy, Itachi as the future Captain of the Konoha Military Police Force, and him as the Patriarch of the Uchiha Clan, together the Uchiha Clan will gain three seats in the Konoha Council which will further increase the status and influence of the Uchiha Clan.
And once the Uchiha Clan gains three seats in the Konoha Council, they'll just need to win over some small shinobi clans as well as gain the support of some commoner shinobis and the position of Konoha's Godaime Hokage will be in their hands.
As this plan took form in his mind, Fugaku's lips arched in a smile and he looked forward to Hyuga Aoyama and Mizuki's performance.
Elder Aoyama observed everyone's expression, especially Sandaime Hokage and the Uchiha Patriarch's expression. And he wasn't surprised upon noting the smirk on Fugaku's face.
Elder Aoyama naturally understands that if Kuroto loses his position, then the one likely to inherit that position is Uchiha Shisui–the current vice-principal. However, that will only happen if Sandaime Hokage gives that position to Uchiha Shisui, which is quite unlikely. And if you consider the fact that the Hyuga Clan has sacrificed one of the outstanding members of their clan for the safety of the village, they will need to be rewarded.
Regardless of which aspect Sandaime-sama takes into account, Elder Aoyama personally believes that the Hyuga Clan will be able to keep the position of the Principal of Konoha Ninja Academy.
Feeling that he had the situation in his grasp, Elder Aoyama smirked, and looked at Kuroto, waiting for him to speak up in his defense.
Mizuki spoke, "Hyuga Kuroto-sama, don't you have anything to explain? Or is it that you accept that you are a traitor?"
Mizuki knows that this one-sided accusation wouldn't be enough to convict Kuroto, but it doesn't matter, as long as he is suspected, it will be difficult for him to keep his position.
Directed by Mizuki's question, the attention of all the people present in the meeting turned towards Kuroto, waiting for the young Hyuga to speak.
Faced with Mizuki's aggressive question, mockery of Elder Aoyama, as well as gazes filled with doubt, and wariness, Kuroto yawned lazily and muttered helplessly, "Man, I am too exhausted for this pointless stuff."
Having continuously worked on optimizing the Yin-seal for the past few days and nights, Kuroto was really exhausted. After thinking for a while, Kuroto changed his seating position, while leaning in a comfortable position, he spoke in a casual tone, "I don't really need to explain anything, it's obvious that you are trying to frame me on a false accusation."
"What makes you think that this explanation of yours will satisfy anyone?" Said Mizuki.
Kuroto shrugged, "The reason is very simple if you really did notice me in such a situation, it would have been impossible for you to stand here and accuse me."
Mizuki smiled contemptuously, and said, "Do you think that the likes of you can buy my loyalty? I can't even think about betraying Konoha!"
"Buy you?" said Kuroto with a chuckle, and shook his head as he explained, "I am afraid you misunderstood my words. When I said, 'It would have been impossible for you to be standing here and accusing me,' I didn't mean that I would buy your loyalty, instead, I mean that if you saw or overheard me with that man, you would be dead. By now, even your body would have disappeared."
Mizuki was taken aback by Kuroto's words, he didn't expect that Kuroto would dare to speak so arrogantly in the presence of the Council, and said in an annoyed tone, "Hyuga Kuroto, your acting is meaningless. I think you should, either give a clear explanation that would prove your innocence or if you can't you should accept that you are indeed a traitor. If you are willing–…"
Kuroto ignored Mizuki's clamoring, instead, he glanced at Elder Aoyama and sighed, 'Idiots, they really don't understand why I am part of the council. Sigh, I guess really have to give them an explanation.'
Kuroto obviously saw through everyone's thoughts. Honestly, Kuroto doesn't give a damn about the position of the Principal of the Konoha Ninja Academy, I mean just think about it, he is the leader of one of the most feared organizations in the Shinobi World, and also controls two of the five great shinobi Villages, why would he care about the position of Principal of Konoha Ninja Academy? But even if that's the case, as long as Kuroto doesn't want to give up that position, no one in the entire shinobi world can remove him from this position, not Mizuki, not Uchiha Patriarch, not Konoha's Hokage, not Rokudo Sennin, and definitely not Hyuga Aoyama or Mizuki.
With this in his mind, Kuroto interrupted Mizuki as he lightly spoke to no one in particular, "I want to hear the truth."
Even though his words weren't directed towards anyone in particular, a person stood up and spoke, "Very well Kuroto-san!"
This was none other than the strongest shinobi on the side of the five great shinobi villages. That's right, as soon as Kuroto's words fell, Shisui stood up from his seat as his pupils changed into three tomoe Sharingan and soon turned into the Mangekyou Sharingan.
The moment Shisui stood up and activated his Mangekyou Sharingan, the atmosphere of the Conference hall changed.
Looking at the pair of eyes, everyone took a deep breath, "Mangekyou Sharingan!"
No one expected Uchiha Shisui to directly activate Mangekyou Sharingan because of Kuroto's casual words.
Shisui ignored everyone's shock and walked towards Mizuki.
Seeing Uchiha Shisui approaching him with his Mangekyou Sharingan activated, all the arrogance on Mizuki's face disappeared, and his body started to shiver as he tried to retreat backward, "No… don't… why… why are you…?!"

Chapter 806: Chapter – 799 The Strongest Uchiha Acts
"No… don't… why… why are you…?!" The fact that Uchiha Shisui would take action was out of Mizuki's expectations.
According to his prediction, after having accused Hyuga Kuroto of being a traitor, at most, he will be enquired by the village in regards to the details of what he heard. For the inquiries, he already had a solid story ready with him, and since Hyuga Aoyama had promised to help him, with the support of the Hyuga Clan, he would have been able to avoid anything too troublesome and get promoted to the rank of a Jonin.
After becoming a Jonin, and with his reputation restored, Mizuki planned to continue to work at the Ninja Academy. By then, Kuroto would have lost his position as the Principal of Konoha Ninja Academy, and he would be under the protection of the Hyuga Clan, so even if Kuroto wanted revenge, he wouldn't be able to do anything.
This was all well thought out, and he believed that his plan would be successful, but it never occurred to him that Uchiha Shisui would interfere, and now everything has become a mess.
Uchiha Shisui will be the most benefited if Kuroto loses the position of the Principal of Konoha Ninja Academy because the person who is most likely to inherit that position is none other than him, yet he chose to support Kuroto, and that too in such a reckless manner!
"Don't… don't come here!" Mizuki panicked and screamed as he tried to hide behind Elder Aoyama.
Facing Uchiha Shisui, all the courage and arrogance in Mizuki's heart blew away, he really didn't dare to face someone like Uchiha Shisui, that too in the situation when Shisui is ready to use his Mangekyou Sharingan.
Elder Aoyama was no different from Mizuki, feeling Shisui's killing intent, his back was covered in a cold sweat, but unlike Mizuki, he believed that even someone like Uchiha Shisui wouldn't dare to touch him, so he calmed his nerves and spoke in a stern tone, "Uchiha Shisui… what are you trying to do? Have you forgotten that this is council…!"
Shisui ignored Elder Aoyama's words and didn't stop his footsteps.
The unfazed expression of Shisui made Aoyama's heart shudder, he gulped nervously as he took a few steps back in fear.
Only now did Elder Aoyama–who has never really faced any strong enemy in his life–realize how terrible it is to face a Uchiha with Mangekyou Sharingan.
Within in Hyuga district, he can slander the Uchiha Clan and their Mangekyou Sharingan all he wants, but now that he is face-to-face with Uchiha Shisui, he realizes that just being able to speak under this tremendous pressure takes a lot of courage.
In the face of this heavy pressure, Elder Aoyama fell out of breath and his body subconsciously moved to the side, making way for Shisui to approach Mizuki.
All the members of the council also looked at everything happening before them with blank expressions.
Although Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Asuma have repeatedly mentioned how much influence Kuroto has on the young Uchiha, such a response from Shisui on Kuroto's casual instruction was still out of Sandaime Hokage's expectations.
Tsunade and Jiraiya looked at each other with gloomy expressions. Although Shisui's actions were not completely out of their expectations, they were still quite unhappy with how Shisui made a move without Hokage's permission. And now that Shisui has moved, there is nothing they can do… currently, Shisui is only moving against Mizuki, if they make any wrong move, the lives of others present in the Council will also be in danger.
The one most shocked is undoubtedly Fugaku.
He couldn't understand Shisui's thoughts. Shisui would most likely become the next Principal of the Konoha Ninja Academy if Hyuga Kuroto loses his position. Yet Shisui is taking action to help Kuroto, and that too without consulting him, the Patriarch of the Uchiha Clan.
Sitting across Fugaku, Hiashi's expression also changed. Hiashi had considered a lot of emergency scenarios that may arise, even the chances of Kuroto taking action against Mizuki or Elder Aoyama were also taken into account, however, the possibility of Shisui taking action was not something he thought of.
More than shock, Hiashi is confused. This is really absurd. Why would the Mangekyou bearer of the Uchiha Clan decide to act upon Kuroto's casual instruction?
The Patriarchs of Ino-Shika-Cho also felt absurd, they even noticed the desperate expression on the face of Hiashi, but none of them dared to make a sound upon noting the killing intent on Shisui's body.
Everyone realized that this was no bluff, Uchiha Shisui was really serious. There is no telling how Shisui will react if someone interferes with his actions. Offending Uchiha Shisui just to help the Mizuki is really not a wise choice, no matter how you look at it.
Let alone the Patriarchs, even the Anbu standing on guard didn't dare to move.
Although their duty is to make sure that no such situation occurs, however, that is only under normal circumstances. Who in their right mind would try to stop Uchiha Shisui?
Since no one made any attempt to stop Shisui, in the silent hall, only the sound of Shisui's footsteps and Mizuki's continuous begging resounded, "This… this is a misunderstanding… don't come here… don't… you… you… why are you…!"
Ignoring Mizuki's begging, Shisui aligned his gaze with Mizuki's as his Mangekyou Sharingan whirled.
Shisui didn't have to make any effort and Mizuki was already under his Genjutsu.
With Mizuki under Genjutsu, his begging and crying disappeared. Kuroto looked in the direction of Elder Aoyama and questioned with a scornful smirk, "Answer me… why are you trying to frame me?"
Mizuki answered with a blank expression, "In order to get my revenge. Because of you, my reputation was ruined and I lost my job at the Konoha Ninja Academy, so I wanted to do the same to you."
"Ohh?" muttered Kuroto as if surprised, and asked, "And how is Hyuga Aoyama involved in this?"
Mizuki answered, "When I was frustrated and resentful towards you, Hyuga Aoyama approached me and convinced me to frame you."
Mizuki then explained the entire process of how he got in contact with Elder Hyuga Aoyama and how the two of them made the plan of framing Kuroto.
Seeing that Mizuki was confessing everything, Elder Aoyama's face turned livid and he shouted hysterically, "He… he is talking nonsense. This is all a lie…! I had no part in whatever his plan was! This had nothing to do with me, I was just trying to protect the village from a traitor."
Hiashi lowered his head in shame.
Kuroto ignored Elder Aoyama's yelling, and asked another question from Mizuki, "Why did you think of using Orochimaru to frame me?"
There was no hesitation in Mizuki's tone of voice as he answered, "Orochimaru-sama once mentioned to me that you are a troublesome guy. I have to be especially careful when dealing with you. I wanted to ask Orochimaru-sama for help, however, I couldn't get in touch with him this time because of some reason, so, I just decided to use Orochimaru-Sama's name. You were his former disciple, so using his name made more sense."
Hearing Mizuki's confession, the expression of everyone in the Conference once again changed. Based on what he said, it is not difficult to determine that Mizuki often contacts Orochimaru.
It turns out that the person who was accusing Kuroto of being a traitor is actually the traitor himself.
This confession of Mizuki shocked even the Hyuga Elder. Aoyama looked at Mizuki in disbelief as he questioned, "You… you are Orochimaru's eyeliner in Konoha?"
