Uchiha Zonghito looked surprised. He didn't know whether he was surprised that Chiho dared to challenge the authority of the clan leader in public, or that he was surprised that she could get the support of so many people.
Or, it's both.
Uchiha Zonghito had never had a good impression of his younger sister, but he couldn't say that he particularly disliked her.
Chiho was the illegitimate daughter his father had with another woman. Because of his mother, Uchiha Sohito naturally couldn't be close to her.
Especially her weak and introverted character is the most annoying to people with strong personalities like Uchiha Zonghito.
But I didn't expect that after his grandfather died, his sister seemed to have changed into a different person. She became smart and capable, and was recognized by many tribesmen.
However, the fact that she dared to accuse Fugaku in public and ensured that she could be a good clan leader and handle the conflicts between the clan and the higher-ups was something Uchiha Zonghito never expected.
Uchiha couldn't help but look at this sister with admiration and wanted to see how she could solve this conflict.
In his opinion, the conflict between the Uchiha clan and the village seemed to be a dead end, and there were great differences within the clan.
Compromising to high-level officials will not give you the power you deserve. Uchiha Zonghito is very sure about this, but launching a coup has basically no chance of success.
Although there is a struggle between radicals and conservatives in the Uchiha clan, there is no essential conflict between the two.
The main purpose of the radicals is to get more cakes from the village, rather than to get all the cakes. This is something Uchiha cannot do no matter how powerful he is, even if Uchiha wins the biggest cake of Hokage. in this way.
But once force and coup are used, the nature completely changes.
But if you want to quickly satisfy the demands of the radicals, force is the fastest and most effective way.
The conservatives are actually very similar to the radicals. This group of people is complacent with the existing authority of the Uchiha. On the one hand, they believe that the power of the Police Department is not strong enough, but on the other hand, they are proud of the power of the Uchiha and the Police Department. In order to maintain this Authority, the people of the police department maintain a condescending attitude towards other villagers and ninjas, and do not allow anyone to offend Uchiha's authority.
As a conservative, Fugaku obviously knew this very well, so he firmly chose to resolve the problem through negotiations with the top management.
Because if Fugaku agrees with the radicals' views and uses force and a coup to coerce the top management, even if it succeeds, this part of the conservatives will not actually change to the radicals, but because after gaining more power through the coup, they will He is even more intoxicated with the power of the Uchiha clan, and does not allow others to offend the clan's authority.
The conservatives hope to make Fugaku the Fifth Hokage. Their purpose is not at all like the radicals' idea, which is just to get a bigger cake, but to make the Uchiha clan dominate Konoha.
Conservatives are more greedy than radicals and are even less willing to share benefits with others. Even if Fugaku becomes Hokage, it will only make the situation of the Uchiha clan worse.
The Uchiha are very powerful, but the reason why Konoha is the strongest in the shinobi world is because all the clans are united together.
Without a mass base, after Fugaku becomes Hokage, the conservatives will become more arrogant, which will make other people in Konoha even more repulsive to Uchiha.
Uchiha is strong, but not strong enough to convince all the Konoha ninja clan.
This is no longer the era where the first generation and Madara were.
So Fugaku, the clan leader, can only find ways to maintain a stable situation. The top management will not let the radicals achieve their goals easily, and Fugaku is also worried that the conservatives will ruin the clan. What the Uchiha clan needs is a hawkish leader who is determined to be enterprising, not for A strong man whose interests pushed Uchiha to a desperate situation.
"Fugaku-kun, the clan leader, has indeed neglected his duties. Five years have passed since the fourth Hokage fell into coma. None of the conditions promised to the Uchiha clan by the fourth generation when he took office have been met. The current high-level officials are responsible. Fugaku-kun, you also have unspeakable responsibility. A shirking of responsibility.”
After pondering for a long time, Uchiha Zonghito suddenly spoke.
"Zongren?" Fugaku looked surprised. Although he was a representative of the conservative faction and Zongren was a representative of the radical faction, the two parties had had many close exchanges and both knew the crux of the Uchiha problem, so they had agreed to We worked hard together for Uchiha, but now Zongren seems to have regretted it.
"Since we have to change the clan leader, I recommend Zong Renjun as the clan leader. He is the eldest grandson of Hayato-sama and has inherited Hayato-sama's will. I think that when Hayato-sama was still alive, whether it was Danzo or the third generation, we Uchiha clan had to make a lot of mistakes. How could they treat us like they are now?"
Someone from Uchiha Hayato's old department suggested.
"I also agree that when Fugaku-kun became the clan leader, it was Hayato-sama who had to fight against everyone's opinions. Now that he has failed to live up to Hayato-sama's expectations, he should give up the position of clan leader and let Sonin-kun succeed him."
"I agree, Zong Renjun is the most suitable candidate for the clan leader!"
The radical Uchiha all echoed their words. For them, Uchiha Sohito, who spoke uprightly in the White Fang incident and contradicted Danzo in public, was the most courageous Uchiha.
Such an Uchiha who is not afraid of the power of the top management can lead the Uchiha to resist the suppression of the top management.
Nearly two-thirds of the dozens of Uchiha ninjas who had activated the Sharingan agreed to change the clan leader, and the situation was basically irreversible.
The Uchiha clan alone has one to two thousand people, among which the number of ninjas exceeds 300. These dozens of Uchiha with open eyes represent all ninjas, as well as the ordinary people of Uchiha.
Fugaku's dismissal was inevitable.
But on the issue of who can serve as the leader of the new clan, everyone is in trouble again.
Because judging from the number of supporters, Uchiha Munehito is the one with the largest number.
But judging from the quality, Shisui, the top Uchiha powerhouse, firmly supports Chiho. If Issei had not defected, he should also support Chiho.
Basically, the new generation, the Uchiha who are around 16 years old, are the majority who support Chiho. They hope to start anew and directly lead the Uchiha out of Konoha, so as not to stay in Konoha and suffer the consequences.
It's just that these people account for a low proportion among the overall Uchiha. The older generation of Uchiha, whether they are radicals or conservatives, want to stay in Konoha. This is a major prerequisite.
"Brother, do you want to compete with me for the position of clan leader?"
Just when everyone was arguing about who should be the clan leader, Chiho suddenly turned her head and looked at Uchiha Munuhito. Her dark and beautiful eyes suddenly turned scarlet, with three magatama evenly distributed in the irises.
Immediately afterwards, under the shocked eyes of everyone, three magatama converged towards the pupils and turned into a pattern similar to a cherry blossom.
"What?!"
"How can this be?"
"Is this...the Mangekyo Sharingan?"
"Chiho has awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan!"
The Uchihas attending the clan meeting were immediately shocked. Many of them subconsciously opened their Sharingan. For a moment, the eyes of most of the dozens of Uchiha present turned scarlet, with single magatama and double magatama. , three magatama are available.
Everyone looked at each other, as if they couldn't believe their eyes. The Uchiha clan actually had a second owner of the Mangekyō Sharingan.
"Chiho-sama has also activated the Mangekyō Sharingan, and coupled with the clan leader's Mangekyō Sharingan power, even if we launch a coup and directly declare war on the top brass, we will have a great chance of winning!"
Suddenly an Uchiha mentioned the coup.
Everyone's hearts are burning. They have lost Issei, a Kage-level powerhouse, but they have gained a stronger Chiho and a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan. So why bother talking to the higher-ups? Let's just get started!
Looking at the fanatical expressions on the faces of his clansmen, Shisui was secretly glad in his heart. Fortunately, only Issei knew about his activation of the Mangekyo Sharingan. If these clansmen knew that there was a third pair of Mangekyo Sharingan in the clan, I'm afraid they would It will be even crazier.
'Issei is right. The problems at the top are huge, but the problems within the Uchiha are not small either. Can such a group of Uchiha who only want to obey the strong really be able to coexist peacefully with others in the environment of Konoha? ? '
Zhishui couldn't help but feel confused.
"Chiho, I didn't expect you to hide it so deeply!" Uchiha Zonghito opened the three magatama sharingan eyes. When he looked at Chiho, he could feel the powerful pupil power emanating from Chiho. , this is a qualitative difference. Gu Yan
Uchiha Zonghito looked at the smile on Chiho's face and felt bitter in his heart. He had always wanted to resist the fate arranged by his grandfather. He did not regard Chiho as a rival or enemy, but he never thought that the person who really did not take him seriously was Chiho.
The once simple and introverted Chiho has changed, or in other words, she has always been hiding it.
"For the prosperity of Uchiha, it is very necessary to hide one's own strength. If the senior officials know that I have also activated the Mangekyo Sharingan, I'm afraid they won't even be able to sleep well?!" Chiho said with a faint smile: " Let me ask you again, brother, do you really want to compete with me for the position of clan leader?"
"Even if you activate the Mangekyou Sharingan, it can only prove your strength, but it cannot prove that you are capable of leading a clan." Uchiha Zonghito said solemnly.
The Uchiha clan has always admired the strong. The clan leader may not necessarily be the strongest, but he must be one of the best.
After Fugaku revealed the fact that he possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan, many tribesmen who were originally dissatisfied with him also changed their attitudes. If it weren't for the lack of substantive concessions from the top management, maybe there is hope that the Uchiha problem would be slowly solved under his tenure. The Uchiha clan will maintain this basic stability, but now Chiho also has the Mangekyō Sharingan.
Many radical members who support Uchiha Munehito have already moved closer to Chiho.
Because Chiho is Hayato-sama's granddaughter, she is also worthy of a big responsibility. If she no longer thinks about the unrealistic idea of leaving Konoha, a considerable number of Uchiha people will be willing to support him.
"What if you add my support?"
A gentle voice suddenly sounded inside the shrine.
Everyone looked around according to the sound, but could not find anyone who made a sound. The place suddenly fell silent, and everyone couldn't help but look at each other.
"Issei?!" Shisui stood up suddenly, with a look of surprise and joy on his face. He was happy that Issei's voice was so familiar to him. This was definitely Issei's voice. However, he was shocked that he had now become a tree. Ye Renren actually dared to appear here.
At this time, in the astonished eyes of everyone, the incarnation of the wood spirit "Uchiha Issei" slowly solidified like a phantom, and then appeared in the shrine.
"Illusion?"
"Instant Technique?"
The Uchiha clan members who had turned on the Sharingan were also a little dazed. The method of "Uchiha Issei"'s appearance was too surprising.
"Uchiha Issei" came to everyone.
"Issei, do you know that you have been classified as an S-class rebel nin by the village?! If you appear here now, if you are discovered by ANBU, the consequences will be disastrous."
An Uchiha said, "The crime of sheltering a rebellious nin is too big!"
"What consequences will there be?" "Uchiha Issei" asked back: "I was just attacked when I was out on a mission and was in a coma for half a year, so I didn't notify the village.
Just for no reason, you classified me as a traitorous ninja. It's ridiculous that you even try to compromise with such high-level officials of Konoha!
It’s okay not to wait for Konoha like this! "
"This matter should be explained to the higher-ups, I believe..." Fugaku said quickly.
"On my way back, I was attacked by Anbu ninjas. I killed four Anbu with my own hands. No matter if these people were Danzo or the Third Generation, the top management would not let go easily. Fugaku, I am different from you. , I will not compromise with the higher-ups!" "Uchiha Issei" interrupted Fugaku.
The reason why Bai Yu sent "Uchiha Issei" back was to stabilize the situation. Now that the time was ripe, it would take some time for him to build a spell model, learn new spells, and stabilize his strength after being promoted to the second level.
And the Kodama incarnation "Uchiha Issei" who obtained the same Kaleidoscope Eye Technique as him has also completed the transplantation of the two bloodlines of Burning Release and Ice Release at this time, and his strength is already comparable to that of a first-class shadow-level powerhouse. Even if he faces the current world's The five shadows also have the power to fight.
By sending "Uchiha Issei" to Konoha, there will be sufficient protection in terms of force.
Since the incident of Nagato being captured, Obito and Zetsu have become much more at ease, and now is the perfect time to deal with the Uchiha problem.
"With my vote, there should be no problem for Chiho to become the clan leader!"
"Uchiha Issei" said in a deep voice. The originally dark eyes had turned scarlet. The three magatama in the irises had disappeared and turned into a pattern made up of multiple overlapping triangles, which looked a bit like building blocks. , an inverted pyramid.
"Mangekyo Sharingan?!"
"What? Issei actually opened his eyes too?"
"How can this be?"
Everyone in the field was shocked.
There are only a few Uchiha who can activate the Mangekyō Sharingan, even in the history of the entire Uchiha clan.
Except for the early Warring States period, it is recorded that the Uchiha clan had many owners of the Mangekyō Sharingan. In the intervening hundreds of years, there were only a few people in the Uchiha clan who had the eyes.
By the end of the Warring States Period, the brothers Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Izuna opened the Mangekyo Sharingan at the same time, which was already a major event for the Uchiha clan to celebrate.
If it weren't for the fact that Fugaku was exposed, the Uchiha clan could only get a glimpse of the power of the kaleidoscope from the classics.
Turning on the kaleidoscope means there is a qualitative difference from other Uchihas.
Chiho could only maintain a balance with the Fugaku clan leader, but with the addition of "Uchiha Issei", the balance was completely broken.
At this time, following Issei's gaze, Shisui suddenly opened his Sharingan. In the shocked eyes of everyone, his three magatama sharingan turned into a four-cornered windmill pattern.
People are numb!
All Uchiha in the field were stunned!
"Shisui!"
"I didn't expect that an honest-looking guy like you would actually..."
The Uchiha clan actually has four pairs of Mangekyō Sharingan!
Let alone a coup, even if they really go independent, I am afraid that they can directly establish the sixth ninja village, on par with the other five ninja villages.
"Who is in favor of Chiho becoming the clan leader? Who is against it? Express your approval."
As soon as "Uchiha Issei" finished speaking, he and Shisui raised their hands at the same time.
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
"agree!"
This time, more than two-thirds of the clan members took a stand, with very firm expressions and fanatical expressions on their faces.
Even among the conservatives who supported Fugaku, a considerable number of people chose to support Chiho.
How can you lose if you stand on the same side as three pairs of Mangekyō Sharingan?
