Three years later, Hinoto and Hinoe were guarding the entrance to the Root chambers when the two Anbu members Yugao Uzuki and Kakashi Hatake appeared with the order to bring Danzō Shimura to Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage. After Yūgao left with the message that Danzō was absent, Kakashi revealed his face and subdued Hinoe with his Sharingan. Hinoto tried to attack him but was quickly overpowered. Kakashi then used a genjutsu to extract the information about Kinoe's whereabouts from her.
