Chapter 25 : Konoha in Chaos
He continued " Even though the senju clan might lose face and it's reputation, it will safe itself from destruction with our help and If
not our help they would slowly died out unknowingly " all the elders nodded.
He added " I also wanted a reason to make the situation between us dire, now we made our seals good again and even the fortifications of all the island is on going, I would like to even break away this alliance but it is not time yet" all the elders acknowledged that but the few were confused again.
He continued " I wanted to choose strong people that can escape in the anbu to the delegation of konoha so that they can act on my behalf, I told then to not go too far into the play, just the right amount that puts us in an advantageous position and for further negotiations " all the elders nodded and some raised questions while others were listening

Konoha,Hokage's office
There was meeting taking place.
The third Hokage puffed a cigarette while sighting and looked at his advisors, especially Danzo like he was the cause of all the problem.
The third hokage said " Danzo look at what you have done, you made us the enemy of every clan in the village " he looked angry while the other elders were also looking at danzo.
Danzo anxiously said " Don't you all pretend you don't know anything while you guys sent the work on my side" he defended himself while shifting the blame to others.
He continued " And don't you all pretend not to know that we are being targeted by some force we don't know of " he said while frowning.
The third hokage also nodded and said " But all this problems needs solution and the village needs something else to suspect and shift the suspecting from us, but Danzo don't try down play your self you have targeted them almost openly now we all lost face infront of the othe villages" while thinking deeply.
One of the elders said " Lady Mito Uzumaki will soon visit us and we don't know what to do, Hiruzen do you have a solution?" She shifted the question to others.
He said " I will try to give her answers so don't worry about Lady Mito, so all you have to do is prevent any evidence that comes our way" they all nodded and planned for little longer with their meeting of Mito Uzumaki.
Soon after Uzumaki Mito came to the Hokage's office with an indifferent expression that is hard to read and also a radiating a cold aura.
They were feeling pressure and they all agreed on one thing that she is definitely angry.
She calmly sit and said " O Hiruzen you should have a lot of explanations for me otherwise it will be more chaos" while exerting pressure.
The hokage sighed while cursing inwardly because he knows that this is a direct threat without getting around the Bush.
He said " I have no part in and I have been wondering what was going on for a while
but we also don't know who target's the Senju clan and what they want from one of konoha's founding clan " He said without batting an eye
He continued " I wanted to tell you my suspicions but didn't have the courage to face you without definitive proof and who were behind this" while also making himself look like a victim.
She eased her expressions and said " So you are saying there are culprits that you are still finding and are likely long enemies of the senju clan " He still played being a victim.
He said " Yes and I can't get enough proof because they will kill everyone that is involved with the incident and if we catch them in action they have the means to completely burry the evidence by committing suicide and the only evidence being ashes" while making up new ideas to get out of the suspicion range.
