Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at this scene, and in an instant, he figured out the inside story, and his face suddenly changed.

"Ah!"

He opened his mouth subconsciously and wanted to say something but was interrupted by Ishigami Hara.

"Third Hokage, this matter... is no longer as simple as assassinating me."

Ishigami Hara stared at Sarutobi Hiruzen. He knew very well what the latter wanted to say, which was nothing more than persuasion, but Ishigami Hara did not intend to listen.

"Some things, since they have already happened, the results are already doomed. Third Hokage, the times have begun to change. Maybe you are not an eyewitness, but as a bystander, you just need to keep quiet."

"Hara! Do you really have to do this?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep breath and quickly regained his composure, but when he thought of something that might happen, he couldn't help but worry.

Ishigami Hara just smiled and said nothing more, then turned to the Anbu members around him: "Send the Third Hokage back to rest, and send these Third Hokage guards to Anbu for screening."

At this moment, Ishigami Hara showed enough toughness.

Sarutobi Hiruzen opened his mouth to speak, but after seeing Ishigami Hara's calm expression, he knew that no matter what he said, the other party would not listen, so he could only shake his head helplessly.

"I know."

Sarutobi Hiruzen turned and left after speaking, but his face was filled with worry.

Swish!

Hatake Sakumo appeared beside Ishigami Hara at this time, knelt on one knee, and said in a deep voice: "The chaos over there has been dealt with. There are three injured, and the injuries are not serious. They have been sent to Konoha Hospital for treatment. The one who caused the chaos was a Chūnin, who had been injured in a mission and had withdrawn from the ninja sequence. His identity was..."

Ishigami Hara waved his hand and said directly: "No need to explain, I am not interested in these details. Senior Sakumo, just keep track of all the people involved in this matter."

"Yes, Hokage!"

Hatake Sakumo was about to leave, and just as he stood up, he heard Ishigami Hara say: "This matter does not need to be kept secret. Well, to be precise, you can make a bigger noise when dealing with this."

Hatake Sakumo looked up in surprise when he heard this, and his thoughts turned quickly. He almost instantly understood Ishigami Hara's intention, and his expression suddenly became a little tense.

"Hokage-sama, could it be that you are planning to...?"

Ishigami Hara smiled at this moment, facing the direction where the situation had gradually recovered, and whispered: "It's time to deepen the reform, Sakumo-kun. Don't you think this is a good opportunity?"

Hatake Sakumo took a deep breath, but still couldn't help but say: "But the power of the daimyo..."

Ishigami Hara's smile remained unchanged as he shook his head slightly.

"Daimyo?"

As he said this, as if remembering something, his smile slowly faded, and his voice became cold.

"It's a bit redundant."

Hatake Sakumo clenched his fist slightly.

"Go, just follow the order. With me here, Konoha won't be in chaos, and I won't let Konoha be in chaos. Let's start the change from now on, Sakumo-kun. Don't let me down."

Ishigami Hara had already walked out. Looking at his back, Hatake Sakumo took a few deep breaths, suppressing the unspeakable restlessness in his heart—whether it was nervousness, excitement, or worry, the emotions were complicated.

"Yes, I understand," Hatake Sakumo said in a deep voice.

Ishigami Hara just waved his hand without looking back and left.

In the Hokage's office, Ishigami Hara sat on a chair with a cigarette burning between his fingers. Nara Shikaku, Orochimaru, and Uchiha Fugaku stood in a row in front of him.

"You already know what happened at noon today?" Ishigami Hara asked calmly.

"Yes, Hokage-sama, I have heard about your attack," Nara Shikaku replied.

Ishigami Hara nodded slightly: "That's good, since you know about it, I won't waste my breath. The person who assassinated me is called Wata. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be sent by the daimyo. He has accomplices and will soon be captured by Anbu's people."

Among the three, Nara's eyelids twitched unconsciously when he heard this. Orochimaru smiled, and Fugaku looked solemn.

"Although I don't know why the daimyo did this, this incident is a signal. Obviously, the old nobles headed by the daimyo can't help it. So, everyone, what do you think I should do in this matter?" Ishigami Hara asked.

Nara chose to remain silent. As sharp as he was, he quickly understood the meaning behind Ishigami Hara's question. The more he thought about it, the more he realized how significant this matter was—it could change the entire structure of the Land of Fire. Just thinking about it was overwhelming.

Orochimaru licked his lips and chuckled: "Hokage-sama, you should have already had a plan in your mind. Asking us at this time doesn't seem to make much sense."

Ishigami Hara smiled, seeming to appreciate Orochimaru's words, and then turned his eyes to Uchiha Fugaku: "Fugaku-kun, the security department needs to pay some attention to the stability of the village. You have to pay more attention in the next period of time."

Uchiha Fugaku, not being naive, had also sensed Ishigami Hara's possible plans. He felt an immense pressure and even considered the possibility that the Hokage's actions might be extreme. Despite this, a strange sense of excitement welled up within him.

"Yes, Hokage-sama, the security department will handle this task seriously," Uchiha Fugaku said resolutely.

"Very good."

Ishigami Hara smiled and nodded, then looked at Nara Shikaku: "Shikaku-kun, cooperate with Anbu in the coming days. I need to let everyone in the village know what happened. Some things also need the support of more people."

Nara Shikaku took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I understand, Hokage-sama, I will do it."

Ishigami Hara nodded again, appearing satisfied, and finally turned to Orochimaru: "Senior Orochimaru, it may not be long before I need you to temporarily step away from your laboratory. I have a more important task for you. Are you willing to take it?"

"I am very happy, Hokage-sama."

Orochimaru's smile remained unchanged, a spark of anticipation flashing in his eyes.

"Then, I believe it will not be too long before I issue your new appointment. Please make preparations in advance."

Orochimaru nodded, saying nothing more.

Ishigami Hara turned his chair and looked out the window at the prosperous Konoha.

There was no emotion in his voice: "Konoha, it looks so good now, but there are always those who want to destroy this beauty."

He paused briefly, then continued coldly: "There is no need to keep those who can't see the situation clearly. It seems that it's time to tell the daimyo and the nobles that times are changing."
