After Yoichi left, Kakashi was still pondering over what had just happened.

"The Root... I remember my father mentioning them. They're the department for training talents for the ANBU Black Ops, buried deep within Konoha, hence named ANBU Root. But what did that guy mean by his words? Will I also suffer treatment like today?"

Kakashi somewhat believed the Root ninja he spoke of earlier might have been spreading rumors.

Having spent almost ten days together, Kakashi hadn't been able to keep anything from him. He admired Yoichi's almost mind-reading level of insight. However, they had no interaction with Root, so why would they spread rumors about him?

"Forget it... Father will be back soon; I'll ask him."

Kakashi thought to himself. He suddenly felt that there might be a significant gap between Yoichi and Root, and he needed his father's guidance at this moment.

If it's going to be troublesome, he might as well continue doing some simple tasks to accumulate experience.

On the other hand, after returning to the Uchiha clan compound, Yoichi headed towards the house of Elder Uchiha Kenji.

He mentioned that he wanted to find the Elder was not just a casual threat to the Root ninja. Now that Root intended to take action against him, Yoichi had to find an equally powerful backing.

The Head Elder was not an option; he had almost retired and hadn't attended several clan meetings.

Although Yoichi had some strength, his Sharingan had evolved to the Second Tomoe due to anger when he attacked Ryouma earlier, and his chakra had increased significantly as a result.

But his current condition was not good.

His body had suffered some damage due to continuously releasing overloaded Lightning Release chakra. His skin and muscle meridians had already suffered some damage. He needed proper rest at this time, preferably going to the Konoha hospital to find a medical ninja to treat him.

If he could stay in the clan compound at ease, Yoichi wouldn't worry, but he was afraid that Fugaku, the clan head, would 'sell him out' again just to please the Third Hokage.

It wasn't the first time Fugaku had done such a thing; that was just his philosophy.

After arriving at Elder Kenji's house, Yoichi rang the doorbell and directly said to the person who opened the door, "I'm Yoichi. I hope to see Elder Kenji; I have something to discuss with him."

"It's Yoichi-sama, please come in. I'll go call my father-in-law."

The person who opened the door was Elder Kenji's daughter-in-law, whose son was the captain of the guard team.

Yoichi was led to the living room, and not long after sitting down, an old man arrived.

"Elder Kenji."

"Yoichi-kun, please, have a seat."

Seeing Yoichi about to stand up to greet him, Elder Kenji gestured for him to sit down, and then he sat down as well.

"Yoichi-kun, I've heard of your genius reputation before. It's a pity you didn't join the guard team. However, it seems even without joining, you haven't wasted your talents."

"Elder Kenji, I come this time with a request for your assistance."

Yoichi didn't beat around the bush; he directly placed the scroll of the Lightning Release Chakra Mode on the table and continued, "Recently, rumors about me using team members to complete missions have been spreading widely in Konoha. Today, I learned that Root has been secretly fueling these rumors."

"Hmph, Danzo, that old man only knows these tactics."

Elder Kenji snorted coldly. Although he rarely went out in the clan compound, he was still aware of the rumors surrounding Yoichi.

These rumors had spread particularly widely in the past two days; he wouldn't believe no one was behind them.

"Yoichi-kun, what do you want to do now?"

"When Root came to me, they were very arrogant. I couldn't help but take action against them. Thanks to their anger, my Sharingan evolved to the Second Tomoe, but now I'm injured. I hope Elder Kenji can help me and keep Root from causing me trouble until I recover."

Yoichi stated his request and pushed the scroll of the Lightning Release Chakra Mode forward.

After glancing at the scroll, Elder Kenji asked again, "Yoichi-kun, why did you come to me? It would be better to discuss this matter with the clan head."

"Forget about the clan head; I'm afraid he'll hand me over to take the blame for the sake of the clan's interests, especially since he had such thoughts last time."

Yoichi shook his head, then continued to write on a piece of paper, "Compared to the clan head, Elder Kenji's way of doing things is more trustworthy to me."

Elder Kenji nodded, then fell into silent contemplation.

After a while, he spoke up and called his daughter-in-law to say, "Rie, go to the guard team and find a competent person, let him send two guard team members with Yoichi-kun to the hospital for treatment. Then let him lead the guard team to arrest and punish those spreading rumors!"

"Yes, Father."

Rie bowed her head in acknowledgment, then turned to Yoichi and said, "Yoichi-sama, please follow me."

Yoichi nodded to Elder Kenji, then followed his daughter-in-law out.

"Thirteen years old, probably not yet fourteen, with Second Tomoe Sharingan, killed a Rock-nin Jounin, and it seems he won against Aburame Ryuma. His talent is even better than a regular person."

After everyone left, Elder Kenji carefully recalled the information about Yoichi.

He remembered that apart from his parents, Yoichi had never received guidance from clan members. After graduating from the academy, he even practiced on his own.

With this talent, Yoichi could become a renowned ninja for the Uchiha clan.

"As long as he's properly nurtured, along with some opportunities, Yoichi could become the next clan head!"

Elder Kenji's face showed an increasingly expectant expression. He was becoming more and more disappointed in Fugaku, the current clan head, to the point where he felt the Hyuga clan head was better.

Although the guard team was a department established by the Second Hokage to restrict the clan members, it still had great power, security, and was suitable for the development of clan members.

But Fugaku seemed to have a blurred vision of the situation.

Coincidentally, Yoichi's appearance gave Elder Kenji hope for a new clan head; moreover, his temperament and character suited him well, much better than his son.

-------------------

After Yoichi was brought to the guard team by Uchiha Rie and explained the situation to Uchiha Masato, the son of Elder Kenji, two guard team members accompanied Yoichi to the Konoha hospital.

This was for his protection; otherwise, if Root ninja suddenly appeared and tried to forcibly take Yoichi away, he wouldn't have the ability to resist.

With the guard team accompanying him, even if Root ninja came, they wouldn't be able to take him away.

After arriving at Konoha hospital, Yoichi found a doctor to treat his injuries.

If he wanted to quickly heal the injuries to his muscles and meridians, two uses of the Chakra Palm Technique would suffice.

As for the skin burned by lightning, applying some medicine and wrapping it with bandages would be enough.

Just as Yoichi finished receiving treatment and was preparing to leave, someone suddenly called him from behind.

"Hey, Uchiha brat!"

Chapter 22: Chapter 22

Yoichi turned around and saw Tsunade and he wrote. "Oh, it's Lady Tsunade. Do you need something from me?"

"Tsk, what's wrong with your throat? Do you want me to help you with that?"

Tsunade glanced at the note and clicked her tongue before saying, "Hmm, I see. By the way, Yoichi, I noticed you have quite a few bandages on you. Looks like you have some burns. With enough money, you could recover in just a couple of minutes."

"No need, I'll be fine in a few days. But Lady Tsunade, you've caused me quite a bit of trouble."

"How so? How did I cause you trouble?"

Tsunade immediately crossed her arms, looking displeased. "Are you saying these things because you hold a grudge against me for what happened last time?"

"I only told you about my Lightning Style Chakra Mode ninjutsu, but recently rumors about me abandoning my teammates have been spreading again. It's all because Root wants to obtain my Lightning Style Chakra Mode, so they've been fueling the rumors."

"Also, these injuries of mine were caused by Root shinobi. They came to threaten me, demanding that I hand over my ninjutsu and join Root in order to clear my name of these rumors. Thank you, Lady Tsunade, for your betrayal."

After handing the note to Tsunade, Yoichi turned and left, followed by two members of the security team.

"Related to me?"

Tsunade read what was written on the note and immediately remembered mentioning this matter to the old man. However, she had intended for the old man to investigate, not to act as a spy.

How did this get linked to asking for ninjutsu?

Tsunade had no idea about the spreading rumors. Just the day before, she had lost all her money in a gamble, and today she came to the Konoha Hospital hoping to find a few unsuspecting fools to treat their injuries and earn some medical fees.

She rarely strolled around the streets, so how could she know about rumors spreading? Besides, casinos don't gossip about ninja affairs.

"Danzo is behind this."

Tsunade furrowed her brow, thinking about her impression of Danzo. It seemed like something Danzo would do, but she only told the old man about it, and it was for intelligence confirmation.

"No, why should I take the blame? It's clearly Danzo's doing!"

Tsunade felt annoyed. She left the Konoha Hospital directly and headed towards the Hokage's office. Although she disliked Yoichi, that wicked little brat, why should she take the blame for Danzo?

She didn't even care about the Lightning Style Chakra Mode. Not only was that ninjutsu difficult to master, but it also drew the hatred of the Cloud shinobi.

On the other side,

Masato asked politely, "Yoichi-kun, how are your injuries?"

Yoichi replied, "Nothing serious, I'll go to the Konoha Hospital tomorrow for treatment, and I'll be fine."

"My father learned that Yoichi-kun has awakened the Sharingan to the second tomoe, so he specially asked me to bring you some genjutsu. If you have any questions, you can come to my house anytime."

Masato took out four scrolls and placed them on the table. These were all genjutsu that could be used with the Sharingan. Learning them would be very convenient when facing enemies.

There was a difference between doujutsu genjutsu and ordinary genjutsu. Doujutsu genjutsu was basically impossible to dispel by oneself, so Uchiha had gained a reputation in the ninja world: "One on one, they will escape; two on one, attack from behind."

Encountering an Uchiha with an activated Sharingan, if alone, it was better to run away.

Unless you didn't look into the opponent's eyes, but then you would hardly be able to see the opponent's upper body. How would you fight like that?

"Masato-senpai, please said my thanks to Elder Kenji. I'm grateful for his help."

Yoichi accepted the goodwill of the Elder without hesitation. If Fugaku could also win over clan members like this, there would be no need for factions in the clan, just the clan leader's side.

"Yoichi-kun, rest well. I'll take my leave now. If you need anything, feel free to come to my house or the security team."

Masato nodded and left Yoichi's house.

After everyone left, Yoichi opened the four genjutsu scrolls and started studying them.

One was an insight into the use of the Sharingan, the "Illusion: Genjutsu Binding," "Illusion: Unknowing Fire," and another one without a name, but it required three seals to activate, and there was also a time limit.

This genjutsu was also marked by Kenji himself as not allowed to be used unless it was a matter of life and death!

"Is this Izanagi? Why did the Elder give me this forbidden jutsu?"

Seeing this unnamed genjutsu, Yoichi immediately thought of the forbidden jutsu of the Uchiha clan. The effect and seals were exactly the same as he remembered.

"Is he afraid that I might encounter an accident, so he gave me this forbidden jutsu to save my life? Tsk, Fugaku, can't you learn from this kind of care!"

This forbidden jutsu was said to be untrained by anyone, but it was impossible to think so. Sacrificing one Sharingan in exchange for one's life? The Uchiha clan was not foolish. Important figures in the clan would definitely preserve this forbidden jutsu.

Yoichi put away the four scrolls and prepared to find time to study them slowly.

However, it felt good to have someone backing him up. Regardless of Kenji's intentions or expectations for him, this protection and cultivation were much better than Fugaku's.

On the other side,

Fugaku was once again summoned to the Hokage's office, this time accompanied not only by Hiruzen but also by the other three council elders.

Upon arrival, Fugaku learned that Yoichi had caused trouble again, this time with Root shinobi.

According to Danzo, the Root shinobi wanted to invite Yoichi to investigate the rumor, but Yoichi directly attacked them and injured Danzo's subordinates.

This was already Yoichi's second time attacking fellow village shinobi, which was absolutely unacceptable according to the Will of Fire.

Although Hiruzen's expression was somewhat unpleasant, he still said, "Fugaku, I understand that you are busy with clan matters and also overseeing the security team.

When you're busy, you indeed may not have time to deal with such trivial matters. But I hope you can advise Yoichi. Shinobi from the same village are like family; this kind of behavior is not appropriate."

Danzo immediately expressed his dissatisfaction. "Hiruzen, how can you brush this off? This is an attack on fellow village shinobi."

"Danzo, leave this matter to Fugaku to handle. He is the captain of the security team, so you don't need to worry about it."

"Hiruzen."

Hiruzen put down his pipe and interrupted, "Alright, this matter is settled. Danzo, I am the Hokage!"

"Then why did you call me here? Just to scold me as the assistant Hokage?!"

Danzo's face turned cold, and he tapped his crutch fiercely. "Hiruzen, you will regret this."

After speaking, Danzo left with a cold expression.

Homura and Koharu didn't say much either. They simply said, "Hiruzen, handle this matter yourself," and then left the Hokage's office.

"Fugaku, you may go back first."

"I understand, Hokage-sama. Please rest assured."

Fugaku bowed slightly and assured him before leaving the Hokage Tower.
