The Third Hokage was smoking a pipe while flipping through the documents in his hand.

The document contains information about the Uchiha clan's worship of the Shido Sage, as well as the Uchiha clan's daily review of the clearance documents for merchants entering and leaving Konoha.

The reason why the Uchiha dared to propose changing the name of Konoha Village and the forehead emblem to a wisteria emblem was not only because they were Tsuna's biggest supporters, but also because of the changes within the Land of Fire.

With Konoha's endorsement, Fujisen Cult finally entered the ranks of the Fire Country's daimyo and nobles. After years of development, many nobles became loyal believers of Fujisen Cult. It was even said that the Fire Country's daimyo was very friendly to Fujisen Cult.

The spread of Fujisenkyo in the Land of Fire also had a reverse impact on the attitude of the residents of Konoha Village towards Fujisenkyo. Uchiha's proposal to change the name at this time may not only involve the power struggle within Konoha Village, but also involve the daimyo and aristocratic class of the Land of Fire.

Maybe the Daimyo wants to strengthen his control over Konoha Village through the Fujisen Cult?

We must be on guard.

The Third Hokage sighed heavily, yet seemed somewhat smug at the same time.

Although Tsuna did a good job as the Fourth Hokage, he still had many shortcomings. She had never expected the external changes and still needed her teacher to help keep an eye on things.

He has to continue to shine for the village!

Just as the Third Hokage was looking through the documents with great enthusiasm, determined to find the flaw, his face suddenly changed, he abruptly put down the document in his hand, and quickly walked to the window.

I don’t know when, the bright moonlight above my head disappeared, and was replaced by large patches of wisteria flowers!!

The ground was covered with faint golden waves. Seeds that were invisible to the naked eye fell to the ground, and then slender branches stretched out. They intertwined with each other and grew rapidly upwards, connecting into one piece in the air about fifty meters above.

Countless wisteria flowers bloomed, purple, pink, lavender, white... the tiny petals fluttered freely in the air, and bunches of drooping wisteria flowers fell down, stacked layer by layer, like a gorgeous canopy, stretching into the distance.

These wisteria branches seemed to be alive. They spiritually bypassed the ninja clan's lands such as the forest where the Nara clan raised deer, the insect nests where the Aburame clan cultivated insects, and also bypassed training grounds such as the Forest of Death. Finally, this stunning sea of ​​wisteria flowers covered the entire Konoha Village before stopping growing.

It was like a huge net, or as if the sky had turned into a canopy of wisteria flowers. Everywhere you looked were frighteningly beautiful wisteria flowers. At the same time, these wisteria flowers were filled with rich vitality, and there were even bits of golden light scattered between the dancing wisteria flowers.

Just sniffing the refreshing aroma, the whole person will feel relaxed, and some ninjas even felt the golden light, which was like drinking a bowl of good wine. While being drunk and dizzy, all the hidden injuries in the body were healed without any medicine.

All the ninjas who did not rest at night noticed that something was wrong. They looked at the Fujikagai with vigilance and alertness, constantly waking up their sleeping partners, and at the same time quickly searching for the Fourth and Third Hokage, wanting to know what had happened.

The Third Hokage led his own troops to the Hokage's building, but found that what Tsuna left in the office was just a clone.

"My original body went to the Uchiha clan's territory."

The master said in a very emotional and unbelievable tone: "Uchiha Shisui is actually a devout fanatic. His sincere and fanatical belief was noticed by the Purple Toad Sage, so the Purple Toad Sage really descended!!"

Third Hokage:?

Are you kidding me? Uchiha Shisui was clearly a spy he had planted in the Uchiha clan!

That child's heart and eyes are filled with the will of fire, how could he be a fanatic of the Fujixian Sect?

"The Wisteria Sage has descended. The wisteria canopy above our heads is the body of the Wisteria Sage. It is said that his body is even bigger." The clone Tsunade said in a joyful tone, "But Shisui's goal and ideal is to hope that Konoha Village will be peaceful and happy, so the canopy of the Wisteria Sage only covers the village and does not spread out..."

The Third Hokage: "..."

What Tsunade said made sense. The Third Hokage's confidence and trust in Uchiha Shisui began to waver. Could it be that Shisui really... ?

After explaining a few words to the Third Hokage, the 1st Hokage instructed the Anbu beside him: "Tell the senior leaders what I just said and ask them to go directly to the Uchiha clan."

Then the master nodded to the Third Hokage, and with a bang, he released his clone.

The Third Hokage finally came back to his senses, his brows furrowed. Now the focus was no longer on Uchiha Shisui's betrayal, but on this Shido Sage... Oh no! Damn!

The Third Hokage suddenly remembered that Tsuna had always been obsessed with the resurrection technique. Could it be that she had completely turned to Shido Sage? That village?!

His expression changed several times, and he lowered his voice and said, "Come here, arrange two teams of ninjas to stand by at Minato's house, tell Jiraiya not to get close to the Uchiha clan, and tell Danzo not to show up!"

If Tsuna was really bewitched by Shido Sage, in order to prevent her from pushing the village into the fire pit... a look of determination flashed across the face of the Third Hokage, and he could only find a way to change the Hokage for the village!

For example, Zilai is also good.

As for Minato Namikaze... the Third Hokage did have high hopes for this young man, but in recent years, as Minato Namikaze has served as the leader of the jonin squad, his reputation among the elite jonin has been rising, and his stance has gradually shifted. He is no longer the conservative Third Hokage, but is moving towards a neutral and independent trend.

The Third Hokage felt that Konoha Village could not withstand any more turmoil and could not have another Hokage who was determined to make reforms. It was better to be stable.

Therefore, the selection of the next Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is more important than Minato Namikaze.

Kushina Uzumaki's son, Naruto Uzumaki, has a physique that is very suitable for becoming a Jinchūriki. If the situation really deteriorates to the point where it is irreversible, Jiraiya will have no choice but to accept Naruto as his apprentice and prepare to replace the Jinchūriki in the future.

The Third Hokage had various plans in his mind, and he moved quickly. He took the ninja tools that were convenient for him and rushed towards the Uchiha clan's territory.

The closer they got to the Uchiha clan's territory, the more ninjas there were, and soon the Third Hokage arrived at the gate of the Uchiha clan's territory. He saw Namikaze Minato who was talking to Uchiha Fugaku, and his two old teammates Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En.

The Third Hokage walked over quickly and asked, "What's going on?"

Namikaze Minato said calmly, "Just now, Lord Orochimaru sent a message through a summoning beast, saying that he is still discussing something with Shido Sage. We want to go in, but Fugaku..."

"The Uchiha clan leader said we don't have the qualifications." Mito Kado En's voice was so cold that it dropped to the bone. "How ridiculous, Uchiha Fugaku, have you forgotten where this is? This is in Konoha Village! You actually said we don't have the qualifications to enter?!"

Uchiha Fugaku felt bitter in his heart, but maintained an arrogant expression unique to Uchiha on his face.

"You are not believers." After a pause, he glanced at Minato Namikaze. The two of them had a good personal relationship and were teammates in the three wars. For Minato Namikaze's sake, he added: "If you don't have the power of the Six Paths Sage, how can you be qualified to meet the Shido Sage?"

Judging from the attitude of these two teammates from the third generation, are they going in to seek death?

Namikaze Minato smiled and tried to smooth things over: "It seems that this Shido Sage has the strength of the Six Paths Sage. Doesn't that mean that our Konoha can dominate the ninja world?"

After hearing what Namikaze Minato said, Utaine Koharu and Mitomon En's faces changed several times, and finally they kept silent. The Third Hokage lowered his voice and asked, "Fugaku, did you meet that adult?"

Uchiha Fugaku shook his head, but the next second his face revealed an indescribable complexity and fear.

"At the moment when the wisteria flowers bloomed, all Uchiha felt the terrifying energy that could almost destroy the world. It was a threat more terrifying than the tailed beast."

"Then a voice in my head said, don't let anybody in, so I..."

Namikaze Minato exhaled lightly, and tried to speak in a light tone: "It's okay, we have to trust the Fourth Hokage and Orochimaru." He looked around in surprise, "Where's Teacher Jiraiya? He hasn't come yet?"

The Third Hokage said gloomily, "I asked him to stay and take charge of the village's defense. Danzo is watching the secret department to prevent ninjas from other villages from exploring the secrets."

After hearing this, everyone else felt that the Third Hokage's arrangement was very reasonable, and the scene fell into silence.

About a quarter of an hour later, Tsunade and Orochimaru came out.

Everyone was excited, and the Third Hokage took the lead: "Tsuna, what is going on?"

Tsunade's face didn't look good, and Orochimaru looked distracted.

Tsuna waved his hands and said, "Literally, the Purple Vine Immortal has descended and temporarily taken root in the Uchiha. If you want to see him, you can go in directly, but just don't touch him randomly."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this. What does "don't touch anything" mean?

Uchiha Fugaku rushed in instantly.

——This is the Uchiha clan land! Is the Purple Toad Sage going to stay in the Uchiha clan forever?

The Third Hokage and others followed closely and soon arrived at Uchiha Shisui's house.

Uchiha Shisui is packing his luggage.

Seeing so many people rushing into his house, Uchiha Shisui's face turned green. No way? Should he continue to make tea?

But no one cared about Uchiha Shisui. They were all stunned when they saw the scene before them.

Two meters in front of the corridor of Uchiha Shisui's house, there appeared a huge wisteria tree that required about ten people to hug it.

The huge wisteria tree spread and almost broke through half of Uchiha Shisui's house. The remaining half of the house was leaning against the side of the wisteria tree. Although it looked like a dangerous house, many vine branches flooded into the beam structure and forcibly supported the house, turning Uchiha Shisui's house into a half tree house.

The wisteria trees blocked out the sun, and countless wisteria flowers hung down. The wisteria petals almost covered the entire courtyard and roof in front of them, turning everything in front of them purple.

The Third Hokage stared at the huge wisteria tree in a daze and murmured, "Wisteria Sage?"

Uchiha Shisui said helplessly: "Yes, this is the Purple Toad Sage, everyone please don't touch him..."

Uchiha Fugaku's face was filled with shock. He opened his mouth and said, "Shisui, what on earth is this..."

"By the way, Master Fugaku, can you find a house for me in the clan?"

Uchiha Shisui said weakly: "Now that the Purple Wisteria Immortal has descended here, I feel that it is not suitable for me to continue living here..."

Uchiha Fugaku said subconsciously: "You can live in my house..."

Uchiha Shisui breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Master Fugaku."

Namikaze Minato glanced at the extremely ugly face of the Third Hokage and asked softly, "Shisui, I heard that you summoned this Shido Sage?"

Uchiha Shisui made a bitter face and took out a Flying Thunder God Kunai.

"…I was taking a break today and was cleaning my house. I found a ninja tool bag from a long time ago and found a special kunai inside. It looked like a Flying Thunder God. I thought it was yours."

"But once I input the chakra..."

Namikaze Minato's expression changed. He quickly took the kunai from Uchiha Shisui's hand and immediately shook his head: "It's not my technique."

The Third Hokage took it silently, glanced at it, and his face turned even darker.

He recognized it; it was a variation of the Flying Thunder God Technique of the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju.

Uchiha Shisui is the descendant of Uchiha Kagami. It seems reasonable that he found the Flying Thunder God Technique of the Second Hokage at home?

Then why does the Flying Thunder God Ritual summon the Wisteria Sage?

Uchiha Shisui moved his lips and said, "By the way, my lords, just now the Fourth Hokage and Orochimaru asked the Shido Sage about the resurrection technique."

As soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

Uchiha Fugaku said in a sharp voice: "Shisui!"

Can this be mixed randomly? Damn kid!

The Third Hokage spoke slowly, his voice full of heavy pressure: "What did you hear?"

Uchiha Shisui shook his head: "I was sent to make tea, so I didn't hear anything, but the Fourth Generation and Orochimaru did get some answers, but they had to pay a price."

He shook his head helplessly: "I don't know the details."

Utane Koharu looked at the wisteria tree whose petals kept falling and asked Uchiha Shisui, "How can we communicate with the wisteria sage?"

Uchiha Shisui: "You can just ask directly, but he may not answer you."

In other words, if this huge wisteria tree does not open its mouth, and just pretends to be dead and acts like a piece of wood, no one can do anything to it.

Utane Koharu tried to ask the Wisteria Hermit, but got no answer.

In the end, everyone had to leave the Uchiha clan's territory. Before leaving, the Third Hokage hoped that Uchiha Fugaku would control the area around the wisteria tree and not let anyone in.

"It would be troublesome if someone bumped into this immortal."

Uchiha Fugaku said with a sour face: "That's what I did originally!"

Otherwise, why would he block the Third Hokage at his doorstep? He was also afraid that the Purple Toad Sage would suddenly go crazy!

The Third Hokage didn't care about Uchiha Fugaku's slander. He needed to talk to Tsunayuki immediately.

Everyone gathered in the Hokage's building again, but as soon as they entered the Hokage's office, they heard Jiraiya banging on the table.

"No! I don't agree! Tsuna, how can you do this?!"

The Third Hokage walked into the office quickly. He tried to soften his tone and asked, "What's wrong?"

Jiraiya pointed at Tsunayoshi angrily and said, "Tsunayoshi actually said he wanted to launch a small-scale war against the Land of Rain!!"

The Third Hokage frowned. He was about to say something when Orochimaru said, "Teacher Sarutobi, don't rush to refuse. We learned something from the Shido Sage."

"There is a ninja named Nagato in the Land of Rain. He has the eyes of the Sage of Six Paths, the Rinnegan. As long as you get the Rinnegan, you can bring the dead back to life. This is the simplest and quickest method."

Orochimaru looked around at the expressions of everyone around him with a smile.

"Don't you want to keep the Rinnegan in the village for the benefit of everyone?"

Jiraiya's heart skipped a beat. He noticed that the breathing of the Third Hokage, the advisors, the elite jonin and other high-ranking officials beside him was disordered.
