Chapter 6: Do You Understand Class Struggles?

To be precise, this wasn't a ninjutsu or a secret technique, but rather an ability of the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama.

"Hmm?"

Kanda Kyoichi extended his chakra, quickly sensing a figure hidden in the shadows nearby. From their position, they had a clear view of his courtyard, even parts of the interior of the house.

An Anbu?

Kyoichi didn’t turn around. He knew the person was likely watching him right now.

When he extended his senses further, he detected another Anbu in a different part of his house. But beyond that, there were no more.

Two Anbu!

Kyoichi retracted his chakra, thinking for a moment. He understood what was going on.

He had previously been a Chunin, and how strong he was had likely been assessed by those above him. After his injuries, he had made substantial improvements, and his physical condition had also strengthened.

The Third Hokage must have suspected something.

This surveillance was partly precautionary and partly to confirm the situation.

The two Anbu must have been tailing him since yesterday.

"Senju bloodline..."

Kyoichi pondered for a while, narrowing his eyes. He didn’t say anything, pretending not to notice the presence of the Anbu around his home.

But…

He was thinking not just about the Third Hokage.

But also about Danzo.

Most of the shady dealings in Konoha were connected to him, with at least nine out of ten schemes bearing his name—there was no injustice there.

That's why Danzo had been called the "Shadow Hokage."

Previously, Kyoichi had felt some sympathy for him, a man who had spent his life taking the blame for the Third Hokage. But now, living in Konoha, he had to consider the effects of Danzo’s influence.

That old bastard must have been secretly re


He thought about it more carefully, and he did find it quite strange.

Before he knew it, he had run quite a distance and was out of breath. Kyoichi had already slowed down, but Shisui didn’t seem to notice, still following him.

Soon…

They returned to Konoha.

"Alright, that's enough for today. When you figure things out, we’ll talk again."

Kyoichi smiled.

Class struggles, if he directly explained it to Shisui, he probably wouldn't understand.

Better to let him think it through himself first.

Moreover…

There was a good example right here.

"Yes!"

Shisui nodded gravely.

Kyoichi left, and Shisui, about to head back to the Uchiha compound, casually glanced around and saw someone who surprised him.

Obito!

What was he doing here?

This was a small village on the outskirts of Konoha, mostly inhabited by civilians and elderly people. Obito seemed to get along well with them, chatting and laughing while eating fruit given by the old ladies.

Why?
