After Yoichi left, Kakashi was still pondering over what had just happened.

"The Root... I remember my father mentioning them. They're the department for training talents for the ANBU Black Ops, buried deep within Konoha, hence named ANBU Root. But what did that guy mean by his words? Will I also suffer treatment like today?"

Kakashi somewhat believed the Root ninja he spoke of earlier might have been spreading rumors.

Having spent almost ten days together, Kakashi hadn't been able to keep anything from him. He admired Yoichi's almost mind-reading level of insight. However, they had no interaction with Root, so why would they spread rumors about him?

"Forget it... Father will be back soon; I'll ask him."

Kakashi thought to himself. He suddenly felt that there might be a significant gap between Yoichi and Root, and he needed his father's guidance at this moment.

If it's going to be troublesome, he might as well continue doing some simple tasks to accumulate experience.

On the other hand, after returning to the Uchiha clan compound, Yoichi headed towards the house of Elder Uchiha Kenji.

He mentioned that he wanted to find the Elder was not just a casual threat to the Root ninja. Now that Root intended to take action against him, Yoichi had to find an equally powerful backing.

The Head Elder was not an option; he had almost retired and hadn't attended several clan meetings.

Although Yoichi had some strength, his Sharingan had evolved to the Second Tomoe due to anger when he attacked Ryouma earlier, and his chakra had increased significantly as a result.

But his current condition was not good.

His body had suffered some damage due to continuously releasing overloaded Lightning Release chakra. His skin and muscle meridians had already suffered some damage. He needed proper rest at this time, preferably going to the Konoha hospital to find a medical ninja to treat him.

If he could stay in the clan compound at ease, Yoichi wouldn't worry, but he was afraid that Fugaku, the clan head, would 'sell him out' again just to please the Third Hokage.

It wasn't the first time Fugaku had done such a thing; that was just his philosophy.

After arriving at Elder Kenji's house, Yoichi rang the doorbell and directly said to the person who opened the door, "I'm Yoichi. I hope to see Elder Kenji; I have something to discuss with him."

"It's Yoichi-sama, please come in. I'll go call my father-in-law."

The person who opened the door was Elder Kenji's daughter-in-law, whose son was the captain of the guard team.

Yoichi was led to the living room, and not long after sitting down, an old man arrived.

"Elder Kenji."

"Yoichi-kun, please, have a seat."

Seeing Yoichi about to stand up to greet him, Elder Kenji gestured for him to sit down, and then he sat down as well.

"Yoichi-kun, I've heard of your genius reputation before. It's a pity you didn't join the guard team. However, it seems even without joining, you haven't wasted your talents."

"Elder Kenji, I come this time with a request for your assistance."

Yoichi didn't beat around the bush; he directly placed the scroll of the Lightning Release Chakra Mode on the table and continued, "Recently, rumors about me using team members to complete missions have been spreading widely in Konoha. Today, I learned that Root has been secretly fueling these rumors."

"Hmph, Danzo, that old man only knows these tactics."

Elder Kenji snorted coldly. Although he rarely went out in the clan compound, he was still aware of the rumors surrounding Yoichi.

These rumors had spread particularly widely in the past two days; he wouldn't believe no one was behind them.

"Yoichi-kun, what do you want to do now?"

"When Root came to me, they were very arrogant. I couldn't help but take action against them. Thanks to their anger, my Sharingan evolved to the Second Tomoe, but now I'm injured. I hope Elder Kenji can help me and keep Root from causing me trouble until I recover."

Yoichi stated his request and pushed the scroll of the Lightning Release Chakra Mode forward.

After glancing at the scroll, Elder Kenji asked again, "Yoichi-kun, why did you come to me? It would be better to discuss this matter with the clan head."

"Forget about the clan head; I'm afraid he'll hand me over to take the blame for the sake of the clan's interests, especially since he had such thoughts last time."

Yoichi shook his head, then continued to write on a piece of paper, "Compared to the clan head, Elder Kenji's way of doing things is more trustworthy to me."

Elder Kenji nodded, then fell into silent contemplation.

After a while, he spoke up and called his daughter-in-law to say, "Rie, go to the guard team and find a competent person, let him send two guard team members with Yoichi-kun to the hospital for treatment. Then let him lead the guard team to arrest and punish those spreading rumors!"

"Yes, Father."

Rie bowed her head in acknowledgment, then turned to Yoichi and said, "Yoichi-sama, please follow me."

Yoichi nodded to Elder Kenji, then followed his daughter-in-law out.

"Thirteen years old, probably not yet fourteen, with Second Tomoe Sharingan, killed a Rock-nin Jounin, and it seems he won against Aburame Ryuma. His talent is even better than a regular person."

After everyone left, Elder Kenji carefully recalled the information about Yoichi.

He remembered that apart from his parents, Yoichi had never received guidance from clan members. After graduating from the academy, he even practiced on his own.

With this talent, Yoichi could become a renowned ninja for the Uchiha clan.

"As long as he's properly nurtured, along with some opportunities, Yoichi could become the next clan head!"

Elder Kenji's face showed an increasingly expectant expression. He was becoming more and more disappointed in Fugaku, the current clan head, to the point where he felt the Hyuga clan head was better.

Although the guard team was a department established by the Second Hokage to restrict the clan members, it still had great power, security, and was suitable for the development of clan members.

But Fugaku seemed to have a blurred vision of the situation.

Coincidentally, Yoichi's appearance gave Elder Kenji hope for a new clan head; moreover, his temperament and character suited him well, much better than his son.

-------------------

After Yoichi was brought to the guard team by Uchiha Rie and explained the situation to Uchiha Masato, the son of Elder Kenji, two guard team members accompanied Yoichi to the Konoha hospital.

This was for his protection; otherwise, if Root ninja suddenly appeared and tried to forcibly take Yoichi away, he wouldn't have the ability to resist.

With the guard team accompanying him, even if Root ninja came, they wouldn't be able to take him away.

After arriving at Konoha hospital, Yoichi found a doctor to treat his injuries.

If he wanted to quickly heal the injuries to his muscles and meridians, two uses of the Chakra Palm Technique would suffice.

As for the skin burned by lightning, applying some medicine and wrapping it with bandages would be enough.

Just as Yoichi finished receiving treatment and was preparing to leave, someone suddenly called him from behind.

"Hey, Uchiha brat!"
