In the pitch-black night, a full moon hung high in the sky.
The weak Might Guy carried Kakashi on his back, relying on Kakashi's keen perception to dodge the countless Anbu patrolling the village, and arrived directly at the edge of the Uchiha clan grounds.
"Who goes there?"
"Hatake Kakashi? Might Guy?"
"What are you doing in my Uchiha clan grounds?"
The two had just entered the Uchiha clan grounds when they were discovered by a patrolling Uchiha squad.
To be honest.
If not for seeing the weak and decadent appearance of the two, the Uchiha patrol squad would have already blasted them with a Great Fireball.
After all...
With Uchiha Jin coming to power, the security of the Uchiha clan grounds was extremely strict, and any suspicious person breaking in would be killed.
In response to this.
Kakashi narrowed his eyes slightly, and his impression of Uchiha Jin couldn't help but rise another level.
Such strict defense, not caring about the village's reaction at all.
Even after conflicting with the village's higher-ups so many times, he still hadn't truly torn off the mask and could maintain a minimum level of peace.
This method is indeed amazing!
However.
For the two of them who were about to defect to the Uchiha, in some ways, this could be considered a good thing.
"We are here to defect to the Uchiha!"
"Just now, Might Guy and I failed to assassinate Danzo. Besides the Uchiha, we can't find any other way to live."
Kakashi's tone was steady.
He briefly explained the matter and then waited for the other party's decision.
On the other side.
Hearing this, the eyes of the Uchiha patrol squad began to become strange.
Defecting to the Uchiha?
This is a fresh term!
You have to know that their Uchiha's reputation was very bad, almost becoming like stinking dog shit in the village. Unexpectedly, someone was willing to defect to their family?
However.
The leading squad leader began to speak.
"You two need to wait a moment."
"I'll go back and report to the elders immediately. Others watch these two here. Of course, if some people from the village dare to come and cause trouble..."
"Kill them!"
After speaking.
He first found three patrol squads to watch Kakashi and Might Guy together, and vaguely expressed the order to protect the two directly if they encountered danger, and then went straight to Uchiha Jin's small courtyard.
On the other side.
Uchiha Jin, who was originally ready to sleep, was stunned on the spot after hearing the report from the squad leader in front of him.
Good heavens!
So fast?
As the creator of the rumors about Kakashi, he certainly knew the power of that rumor.
It was normal for Kakashi not to be able to withstand it. Whether suicide or revenge, it was also a very normal thing.
But the problem was, the speed was too fast!
He didn't expect the rumor to spread only today, and Kakashi would launch an action tonight, and even choose to defect to the Uchiha in the end.
However...
Thinking of Might Guy, he understood a little!
Perhaps Kakashi didn't care about his own life, but with his nature of valuing companions, he had to consider his friend Might Guy.
Hmm, very good!
Kakashi was considered a powerful combat force of the village, and Might Guy was even considered the foundation of the village. Unexpectedly, they all benefited him now.
"I agree!"
"Bring them both to me."
Uchiha Jin said immediately.
After the patrol squad leader left, he said to Uchiha Tsuki beside him: "Go prepare two guest rooms. We're having guests tonight."
Uchiha Tsuki bowed and left.
Although she was Elder Setsuna's daughter born in his old age, if she were in another world, she could almost be considered a standard rich, fair, and beautiful woman.
However.
She didn't have any arrogant air, more like a standard Yamato Nadeshiko.
Getting along with her was indeed relatively easy.
Not long after.
Kakashi and Might Guy were 'invited' in, and then the Uchiha squad bowed and left to continue their patrol mission in the clan grounds tonight.
"Kakashi, Might Guy."
"We can be considered old classmates who graduated in the same year. Although we didn't have any contact before, I don't think there's any need to be too hypocritical."
"Since you chose the Uchiha, unless the Uchiha are exterminated, you don't need to worry about your safety."
"Resign from the Anbu job directly."
"Write a resignation letter later, and I'll have someone deliver it to the Hokage's office tomorrow."
Uchiha Jin was quite direct.
He hated those twists and turns, so naturally, he said whatever was on his mind directly.
Sweeping the couch to welcome? Sleeping foot to foot? Forget it; there was no need for that in the ninja world. Besides, these two guys didn't truly recognize him...
To put it bluntly.
It was a last resort, just warming each other up!
He needed to make the two of them into a benchmark, letting other ninja clans in the village understand that the Uchiha was willing to save a place for them.
As for Kakashi and Might Guy, since they had offended the Konoha higher-ups, they also needed the protection provided by his side.
Simply put, each takes what they need!
On the other side.
Looking at Uchiha Jin, this peer, Kakashi and Might Guy were somewhat emotional.
Yes!
If Uchiha Jin hadn't mentioned it himself, the two of them really wouldn't have noticed that they were actually classmates in the same class.
It was just that Uchiha Jin during the Ninja Academy period basically didn't interact with anyone, and his studies and ninjutsu were also mediocre, so everyone subconsciously ignored him...
Unexpectedly.
The other party now had become the lord of a faction!
"Okay, understood."
"Let's follow Jin-kun's arrangement. Guy and I have no objections to this."
"But I still hope your Uchiha can arrange a position for the two of us. After all, we also need a source of income."
Hearing this, Kakashi wasn't polite either.
He also directly put forward his request. After all, both of them were ninjas and needed to eat and spend money.
Work was essential!
Other than that, there was nothing else. After all, both of them were loners.
Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, and others were still young. In the original story, they would become guiding Jonin only when they entered and graduated from the Ninja Academy. At this stage, they had almost no ties.
"This, no problem!"
"But the current Uchiha has nothing to do, especially since the Police Force is almost half-paralyzed..."
"I'll give you two the positions of Police Force squadron leaders. Tomorrow, I'll assign three Uchiha squads to each of you. You lead them to guard the Uchiha clan grounds, focusing on defending against the invasion of Anbu and Root."
"If you have spare time, you can go to the Uchiha clan school to have a look and teach the Uchiha children."
"There's nothing else. You two integrate into the Uchiha as soon as possible!"
Uchiha Jin also had a headache.
The current Uchiha really didn't have any industries, so naturally, they couldn't provide any so-called positions.
After all...
Because of the special relationship with the village, food, ninja tools, and the like relied almost entirely on the Ninja Cats, and money relied entirely on the family's heritage, or occasionally going out to rob directly.
For example—Root!
If other ninja clans defected, it would be fine. After all, they didn't lack these things; they just needed to move into the Uchiha clan grounds and live together.
On the contrary, ninjas like Kakashi and Might Guy were more troublesome. After all, they couldn't let them eat and drink for free for a lifetime. The key was that even if the Uchiha were willing to support them, they themselves wouldn't be willing.
So.
Positions must be provided!
Therefore, after thinking about it, Uchiha Jin chose to let them be affiliated with the Police Force.
