Konoha…
Hokage Tower…
It is already 3 days Saito captured the Kumo shinobi and now he is talking with 3rd Hokage and Hiashi.
"How come they just say that they didn't send anyone to attend Hinata's birthday party??? " Hiashi said with anger and frustration while thinking how easily they denied taking responsibility.
"As I expected... They had done this to avoid any kind of problem from occurring. " Saito said with a calm tone.
"Yes they had done just like any other village would have done. After all, this could lead to a potential war. " Hiruzen said with a nod.
"Hmm… we would have also done the same after all this kind of missions are do or die ones. So they must have known that their Kage would give up on them. " Saito said agreeing with Hiruzen's earlier statement.
"So they are just going to say that they Shinobies that joined my daughters birthday with Raikages recommendation are all Rogue nin... Is it that easy??? " Hiashi asked again with a loud tone.
"That is enough Hiashi... We can't do anything about it now that they have decided to take responsibility, this might lead to a potential war and we do not want that to happen after all this could lead to another great war… " Hiruzen said with a sigh while thinking about the worst.
"But Hokage same you can't possibly just ignore the fact of my daughter getting trauma from that night…. " Hiashi said with an excited tone.
"I know how you feel as a father but Hiashi you should also know that your daughter will become a shinobi in the future so sooner or later she would have to go through similar or even dangerous things but now she had gone through it and with her mother's console I think she will get over this event in no time… " Saito said claiming down Hiashi a little.
"Sensei I know that but still, you don't know how delicate my little girl is. "Hiashi said with a sigh and thought how his daughter doesn't go out or talk with strangers and so on... Then he remembered something and asked "Sensei about that kid from that night... "
"Do you mean Kirito, What about him???" Saito asked with a nod.
"Yes, him," Hiashi said with a nod and added" my daughter was asking about him earlier… "
"I see that... Well, do you know his identity? " Saito asked with an understanding nod.
"Yes, he is the Jinchuriki of Yin Kyubi if I am not mistaken… " Hiashi said with a nod as if he understood what Saito meant.
"Good if you know this you should also know he is also my disciple whom I have decided to pass on my legacy... " Saito said with a hint.
"No, wonder he was able to rescue Hinata from Kumo shinobies even at his age. " Hiashi said with absentmindedly and added "also one more thing Sensei I wanted to ask you If I could bring my daughter to play with the kids... You know she is scared of going out and all so... "
"It not a problem after all from what I know that kid will be happy to have more friends. " Saito said with a smile
"Good this way my daughter will also go out of the house to breathe a little. " Hiashi left after a little more talk with Saito and Hiruzen.
After Hiashi was gone Saito turned serious and asked "You are not just going to let this go like this right??? "
"What do you suggest for me to do? " Hiruzen asked with a sigh.
"Why don't you let my root interrogate those Kumo shinobies. I think I will be able to get some precious information from them... " Danzo came out of the shadow suddenly and asked in his usual way.
"Well I don't think you will find anything more then we did but still if you want I think I will stop you this time. " Saito said as if he didn't care about it that much.
"Are you sure you wouldn't stop me like always??? " Danzo asked getting surprised by Saito's replay.
"No this time you can do whatever you want with them just make sure to finish after you are done. " Saito said with an evil smile.
"You don't have to tell me about that??? " Danzo said with a serious tone.
"Now that we are all here why don't we discuss the more important issue at hand??? " Suddenly Koharu asked coming out of the shadow with another person.
"Saito among us you are the only one who is stopping us from taking g action against them… so I hope you have a good reason the time… " Danzo said getting serious.
"I know your fear about the Uchiha but I want to tell you that no Uchiha in the village has MS as of now… " Saito also said with a serious tone.
"We can't say that for sure don't forget about the Kyubi incident 4 years ago… " Danzo said while shaking his head.
"Just because a masked Uchiha with MS controlled and attacked the village that doesn't mean it is someone from current Uchiha member... " Saito
"It also doesn't mean they are telling us the truth... What if they are hiding it from us to take over the village... " Danzo said with a serious tone.

Training ground 7…
Kirito is doing his usual push-ups right now.
"Are you going to join me, brother??? " Kirito asked when he saw Naruto coming toward him.
" Hell no… I was thinking about what will I eat when Saito sensei take us around the village... " Naruto said as he throws a kunai at a target just to miss it again"Damn it…"
"See I told you to practice... " Kirito said with a laugh.
"Dont make fun of me you… " Naruto threw more kunai just to miss again.
"Well, I think you can try a few more time and then you might get it done… " Kirito said in a low tone as he added "Anyway you can think about eating later but I just want to tell remind you that what will you do when Sensei ask you about your homework… " Kirito asked with a serious tone.
"Damn it why do I need to read you know I am going to a great shinobi and then become the Greatest Hokage... So what is the use for me in reading some books… " Naruto complained as he runs away at the direction of their house.
After Naruto is gone Kirito jumped up and went near a tree and walked climbed it up.
When Kakashi saw that the little kid is slowly approaching him he got curious and thought 'What does this kid thinking of doing... he couldn't have noticed me right… 'the next moment Kirito vanished from his sight and the next moment Kirito asked from behind him "What are you reading senpai… "
"What how did you went behind me??? " Kakashi asked surprised by Kirito's sudden arrival.
"Oh, the same book as sensei... Let me look at it... " Kirito said and snatched the book from Kakashi's hand suddenly while he was in dazed and the next moment he was sitting on another tree branch while thinking 'I can only do flash steps 3 times before feeling pain. So how much strong Sensei really is… '
Upon realizing the book in his hand was gone Kakashi moved quickly and took it back from Kirito in a split second and said "This book is not for kids… "
"How did you… never mind... " Kirito said and added "What is in this book for you and sensei to say I can't read it… "
