While Danzo and Hiruzen relationship was hitting the rock bottom, the cause of their dispute was researching the Edo Tensei technique.
Even though this technique is morally questionable, it's has benefits. After all, in the face of possible annihilation, any card you have is useful.
So it's better to know about and not use it, than to not know about and unable to use it.
The reason he was researching the technique was to see if there's any way to improve it. Either the summons strength, the control over the summon or to achieve true resurrection.
While researching he noticed Hiruzen chakra eruption again but unlike the last time, he was Danzo and the others.
he didn't understand the situation and felt he needed to know what's going on.
He released a shadow clone that left the hideout and went to the Uchiha clan compound. As this was the night time, he kept himself undetected and avoided the guards as he sneaked into the uchiha clan compound.
He sensed Fugaku chakra and went to his direction. But just as he wanted to spy on Fugaku, Fugaku moved quickly to his direction.
Tsk. Still needs improvement in that direction. His sneaking ability was still immature.
Fugaku eyes was locked at the intruder and was about to attack but stopped when he saw it was the suspicious guy.
"Why did you come here?."
Jack responded with a little joke.
"I missed you so I came to check up on you."
Fugaku didn't speak and kept looking at the guy.
"Ok. Hiruzen seemed to be in a bad mode. Did the guy you caught die?."
"Why would I tell someone suspicious like about our village secrets ?."
"Come on, you can't deny that I'm helping you. You might be suspicious of my identity but don't question my honorable character."
".... the envoy died."
"Figures. Did the cloud shinobi has spies in the Anbu or did he commit suicide ?."
"It doesn't seem to be the case. He was suspicious of me because I couldn't speak about you so I made up a lie but he seemed to detect it."
"He just suspected you?"
"Yeah, I couldn't exactly explain why I was there at that time.could I."
"No, what I mean he didn't pressure you or something but only suspect you?."
"Yes, why do you ask.?"
Jack remained silent for a while and said.
"I sensed him getting angry twice. The first maybe understandable as he was meeting with the envoys after you captured the kidnapper. So thought that the spy committed suicide or got killed by someone .
The second time however, he was with the council elders. But the only one who could make him angry among them is Danzo so what Danzo has with this situation.?"
Fugaku eyes widened and asked.
"Are you from the Uzumaki.?"
"No, but really not the time to play another guessing game . So do you think Danzo has hand in this matter,?"
"Possible. Everything is possible with that man."
"But why. What could he possibly gain from screwing up the Huyga."
"Maybe he wants their eyes.?"
"No, Huyga eyes are about frontal confrontation. That guy is too afraid of death to even think about doing that. Your people eyes are more of his forte."
Fugaku face turned grim but did retort.
"But this is a good thing. With Danzo and Hiruzen relationship getting worse, it would be easier to get rid of him."
Fugaku eyes lightened with a glow that he seemed to dream of that day.
"Ok, I take my leave. By the way, do you have a method for communication so that I don't have to risk getting exposed every time I try to talk to you."
Fugaku thought for a moment and said.
"Give me a kyunai with flying thunder mark."
".... I don't have money for that now."
Fugaku eyes widened and said.
"I can give you some money."
"No need, I'm still waiting for something for now. So how about a piece of wood that you can carry with you."
Fugaku didn't really mind so he nodded.
"Father?."
Jack hid himself quickly when he heard a voice.It turned out to be Sasuke that came.
As he still didn't refine chakra, Jack didn't sense him approaching.
Fugaku turned to Sasuke and asked.
"What's the matter."
"Mother wants you for something."
"Okay, you can go inside for now."
"Understood."
Jack appeared after Sasuke left. Then said.
"Is that Sasuke, your son?, he is very cute."
Fugaku didn't smile but his lips was twitching then replied.
"A uchiha should be fearsome, not cute. I think his older brother Itachi is much better than him."
"Oh, you have no idea how wrong you are. I sensed something in him just now and if I'm not wrong, your youngest son maybe become your Uchiha clan strongest pillar in the future."
Fugaku eyes widened and asked.
"What did you sense?."
"Oh you believed me?."
"You haven't lied to me so far."
Jack eyes widened and asked.
"Did you meet tsunade?."
"No but I got Itachi a check up in the hospital. They said he have some kind of disease that weakens his physique but they have no idea about what it is."
"Yeah, it's a rare case. I only know two other people who has that disease."
He replied then thought .By the way I seem to be free these days, should I learn some medical ninjitsu.
"You know what it's. Did they get cured?."
Fugaku asked with urgent voice.
"Not 100% sure, but if it's what I think it's ,I don't think you should delay this matter. And The other two didn't meet tsunade, so you should look and hear from her."
Fugaku kept silent for a while then said.
"What if she refused because we're a Uchiha?."
Jack looked in shock at Fugaku then asked.
"You have never met tsunade,have you?"
Fugaku replied with confusion.
"No I didn't. Considering our family history, it's not that strange."
Jack looked at Fugaku and said after a while.
"Your family lineage are really not suitable for leadership let alone becoming a Hokage . How about you hire someone else to lead your clan for you. I could even recommend someone."
Fugaku stayed silent and then asked again as if he didn't hear Jack's words.
"So she would treat him."
Jack however shook his head.
"That, I don't know. Tsunade is suffering from hemophobia. So if the treatment required operation, she wouldn't be able to do it."
Fugaku eyes widened and asked.
"Sh is suffering from what?. A hemophobia?. But If that's the case , then why should I look for her?."
"Because she is your only choice. No one else could come closer to her. Wait, there are two people that might be able to help if you could trust them that is.
Chiyo and Shinno. One is an elder of the sand village, you should know about her. The other however is really special and extremely crazy From the land of sky that Konoha destroyed in the past."
Fugaku eyes twitched and said.
"Tsunade it's."
"Hahahaha, good. Don't worry, she has a student that learned everything from her. But prepare a lot of money, then when she refuses , offer some then keep increasing until she accept."
"Money?. Tsunade Senju need something like that?."
"Well you will understand when you meet her. Oh, tell me before you go to meet her"
Then Jack released the shadow clone.
But when Jack who was in his hideout got the memories, he suddenly felt extreme fatigue. Jack frowned then tried to rest but the fatigue didn't lessen.
Thinking of different possibilities he decided to return to Naruto mental space.
He immediately left and released all the shadow clones, even that with Minato and kushina in the real world.
After that sensed and found that his soul seemed to be really heavy and extremely fatigued.
Minato and kushina came to him immediately and asked.
"Jack, what's going on, why do you look so weak?."
Jack kept feeling heavy but he sensed that his status now is getting better.
"I don't know what happened, after I released a shadow clone and got the memories, I felt extremely heavy so I released all the shadow clones because I thought it's something spiritual and entered here."
Minato thought for a while and replied.
"Yeah, maybe because it's unnatural thing you are doing, so you should rest for a while then after a good rest you can come out again. It will be easier this time as Naruto now has a lot of freedom."
Jack still feeling tired nodded. Then asked
"How is he these days."
"He is a lot happier with our company. But he really doesn't do anything recently. He completed the leaf concentration exercise and now is waiting for Kakashi.
I thought of teaching him rasengan, but it might be too early for him. Then thought of the three basic techniques but Kakashi willl teach him that."
Jack thought for a while then said.
"Teach him body flicker technique. Naruto lacked speed during the canon early stage and body flicker is just like tree climbing and will increase his chakra control."
Minato frowned and said.
"Body flicker technique has high requirements for body strength "
"No, Naruto won't use his body. He uses just shadow clones. Shadow clones doesn't need body strength at all."
Minato thought for a while then shook his head saying.
"How are you going to mask this?. Although it's similar to climbing trees there is still difference in the applications of chakra, one is constant chakra flow and the other is small bursts of chakra."
Jack smiled and said.
"There's someone who would teach Naruto if Naruto met him by chance and he wouldn't even think twice before doing it."
Minato looked confused and asked
"Who might that be?."
"Maito guy"
Minato face brightens and nodded
"Yeah, he would. Did you see him in the village?."
"No, I tried to sense him but got nothing. He appears to be not in the village currently. But I bet he will appear shortly so teach Naruto now and we will mask it by learning from maito guy."
Minato nodded then said
"How long are you going to rest?."
"For quite a while apparently. But don't worry, I now just need to ask Naruto to release some shadow clones and I will control one then transfer away making it look the others that was released."
"Yeah, you now have marks all over Konoha."
Jack kept sending clones to make marks all over Konoha.
After that Jack rested for two days before felt normal again, during which Naruto kept training the body flicker technique and combat techniques.
He masked by going out every day and make 200 clones face each other with one team being the villains and one being the heros.
Naruto liked the idea and began doing it every day.
He used to use a large amount of chakra previously to create 110 clones but now he can make 400 easy because he doesn't waste chakra anymore and got better with chakra control.
Also his spiritual energy has been strengthened by facing kurama every day.
Jack came to Naruto and then said.
"Naruto,when you activate a bunch of shadow clones today, you let me take control a clone ."
Naruto nodded and said.
"Ok."
After Naruto gave him some chakra, Jack went out again and after some time, he returned to his hideout.
Jack began to feel the chakra in Konoha and felt nothing special. So he activated a shadow clone that began to transport to Minato and kushina.
Just as transported twice, after getting out of Konoha he felt their chakra.
He transported to them and when he saw them, he asked.
"Why are you so near from Konoha?"
Minato and kushina looked at Jack then smiled saying.
"When your shadow clone disappeared suddenly , we thought something is wrong and came to Konoha in a hurry. But just as we got closer, my kurama sensed the kurama in Naruto and we knew he was safe. Just as we were preparing to leave, I sensed him, so we hid while waiting for you.
"Sensed him?. "
"White Zetsu, I found one near Konoha but didn't attack him, I thought you would need him."
"Really, found one?. Finally, this a great news."
"Yeah, you can finally have a body."
"Mmm? No, my body can wait as we will need orochimaru technique for that. Now , we need to give a stronger body."
Minato thought and understood Jack. If Minato got Zetsu clone body, he will have 90% of his original power. So he could sense at extremely larger area.
"Good, let's do it."
Minato sent a kyunai from a hidden place then directly blasted the tree above the ground . White Zetsu escaped from the tree and tried to reach the ground. But before he could Jack sealed his chakra.
Jack then released Minato, then using white Zetsu , he resummoned him.
Minato appeared and felt his strength multiplied several times.
"Yeah, now I can locate white Zetsu much faster then before. I already sense several in the vacancy of Fire counry alone.."
"Good, bring one for kushina too. She seemed eager to punch some sense into someone "
"Yeah, that old man sartobui and jiraya sensei. They need some punishment for what they did to my Naruto."
Kushina said while determination was oozing from her.
Minato knew better than to speak for them when Kushina is that angry, so he sighed and brought another one. Then Kushina returned to 90% of her original power.
"Minato, I want to meet orochimaru, you should know where he is. So go there and then return to pick me up.
Kushina, for now let's wait for Shisui return to kill Danzo. After that everything else will be an easy matter."
Kushina nodded after a while, then she asked.
"Where should I go now?."
"You will go the grass village and take Minato or Minato's shadow clone . There are survivors of Uzumaki there, you should know about them."
Kushina face darkened as she thought about karin and her mother used by grass ninja as medical bags.
Kushina nodded and Minato immediately took action saying.
"I will with Kushina and let the shadow clone go to land of rice fields. I don't think I will need my main body as I just need a mark there."
Jack nodded and they immediately left.
Jack knew that it would take at least 6 days for Minato to come back. So he decided to use his days in researching.
3 days later.
Kakashi and Shisui finally returned to the village.
Jack felt them together as they returned apparently at the same time. It seems that Kakashi team had some difficulties in this mission.
After Shisui returned, the first thing he did was meet with Fugaku.
He immediately went to his house upon returning from reporting the mission results.
Jack sensing them immediately transported to them.
He appeared behind Shisui and touched his neck. Shisui startled he moved away then calmed after seeing who it was.
"Could you stop doing that, it's really creepy."
Jack smiled then said.
"What do you know,I'm trying to train you to be more vigilant . You are too weak without your sharingan after all."
Fugaku on the side asked after shisui calmed down.
"Did you to us the plan?."
"Yeah, I want you to hold a family meeting for the next 3 days."
Fugaku frowned and asked.
"Why?."
Jack shook his head and said.
"It doesn't matter. Just hold a meeting every day for the next three days."
Fugaku asked after a while.
"Why would I need to do this."
Jack looked at shisui and said.
"Because Shisui will report that you are planning a coup. Uchiha clan feel they are being alienated and think that only a coup will solve the problem."
"What?."
Both Shisui and Fugaku yelled at the same time.
"Well, After that, on the third or fourth day, Shisui will tell the the council elders about his eye power and he intends to manipulate Fugaku to calm the coup because the Uchiha will launch the coup today."
Fugaku asked after a while and said.
"Why would we need to do all of that?."
"I need Danzo to think that this is his chance when he hears that the Uchiha intentions to coup. But when he hears about Shisui intention to use his eyes to calm the coup, he wouldn't think too much before trying to kill Shisui. Because he will think if he hesitated , he mightn't get another chance. So he will call Shisui to an isolated place to kill him.
At the same time, Hiruzen will prepare his Anbu in case Shisui fails and wouldn't have time to react when we attack Danzo as he wouldn't think that Danzo would be attacked at this time."
Fugaku kept quiet for a while and then said.
"What if Danzo doesn't attack Shisui?."
"He will. You don't understand that guy obsession with the sharingan. Nothing can make him change his mind about your clan annihilation.
But if he doesn't , Shisui will just go to the clan and and calm the supposed coup and tell that it's because Fugaku felt Danzo have a sharingan in his right eye or because the third Hokage suspect you in the cloud village matter."
Fugaku kept silent for a while when Shisui asked.
"What if Danzo or one of the root escape and inform Hiruzen."
"Don't worry,Danzo death is a forgone conclusion . I just want to avoid unnecessary casualties. You two won't be the only one to attack, they will grantee no one can reach Hiruzen."
Fugaku thought for a while then finally said.
"I hope this plan works."
"I'm in,too"
Finally, Shisui and Fukagu agreed to the plan
