Chapter 161: Uchiha who attempted a coup d'état
After a year of research and research, the Thundercar research team led by the Red Sand Scorpion finally successfully applied Yunyin's chakra storage technology to the Thundercar, successfully solving the problem of the power source of the Thundercar.
At this point, the thunder car began to be officially born.
Thanks to the ninja's various magical ninjutsu that can easily change the terrain, the laying of the railroad is also quite easy and fast. No matter how complex the terrain is, there's nothing that can't be solved in one shot, and if there is, then do it again.
After three years of rapid development, the transportation network of the thundercar company has spread almost all over the ninja world, and it originally took ordinary people half a month, even ninjas had to walk for three days, but now it only takes one day to arrive.
As the mode of transportation has become simpler and more convenient, the communication between people has become more frequent, and at the same time, it has also promoted the exchange of various technologies and the circulation of goods, which has brought various opportunities and wealth.
For example, in Yunokuni, which is famous for its hot springs, there were only a few thousand people who came here every year to soak in the hot springs before the thunder car was opened.
However, after the opening of the thunder car, the number of passengers here has skyrocketed by more than ten times, and this number has been growing.
There are also those villages that have abundant specialties but are unable to sell them because of the long distances, and have also become the beneficiaries of the thunder car......
Of course, there are also many lawbreakers who are so angry that they even have the idea of robbing and extorting minecars.
In response to this situation, Lomi proposed to send a request and commission to the "Red Cross" in the name of the Thundercar Company, and then use the power of the "Red Cross" throughout the ninja world to naturally set up "railway guerrillas" in various places to be responsible for cracking down on and eliminating those violent elements who tried to sabotage the railroad and the minecart.
This will not only effectively protect the normal operation of the minecarts, but also allow the "Red Cross" to justifiably train its own armed forces in various regions.
In this way, a change caused by the mode of transportation has begun to quietly come, and the entire ninja world is about to undergo earth-shaking and rapid changes.
……
However, although the new mode of transportation has greatly changed the original way of life, it still cannot change the restlessness and suspicion.
Due to the deepening of the contradictions between the Konoha high-level and the Uchiha clan in the past few years, the two sides have almost reached the point of being on the same footing.
The Uchiha clan is growing with discontent and resentment against the Konoha hierarchy, and the idea of a coup d'état is almost on the verge of exploding.
And the Konoha higher-ups are also suspicious and wary of the Uchiha clan, and they are ready to wave the butcher knife at the other party at any time.
……
Uchiha clan land.
At the home of the patriarch Uchiha Fugaku, several militant activists are venting their grievances and trying to persuade the patriarch to make up his mind to lead a coup d'état.
"Patriarch, those high-ranking guys in Konoha are too much, we can't swallow our anger like this anymore!"
"They didn't let us Uchiha participate in politics, and now they have even begun to dictate our security work, and they are still seeping sand in some places......"
"This is clearly a distrust of our Uchiha, and an attempt to take away the rights that originally belonged to our Uchiha!"
"Yes! Patriarch, if this continues, what future do we Uchiha have! ”
“……”
Allowing his clansmen to vent and complain in front of him, Uchiha Fugaku still knelt on the wooden couch with his eyes closed and didn't react at all, as if he hadn't heard anything.
Similar words, Uchiha Fugaku has heard them thousands of times over the years, and his ears are about to give birth to calluses.
At first, Uchiha Fugaku would comfort them bitterly and restrain them to be careful of misfortune.
Slowly, there were too many times, and Uchiha Fugaku himself was a little numb, so he let go of his hand and simply let them talk happily and vent, which is better than holding it in his heart all the time!
However, in recent years, the attitude of Konoha executives seems to have become more and more tough.
A while ago, on the grounds that Uchiha's clan land was too remote, and I was afraid that the guards would not be timely, he forcibly deprived Uchiha of control over several access gates in Konoha Village.
Damn, back then, you also forcibly relocated our Uchiha clan here on the grounds that the village was destroyed by the Nine-Tails and needed to be rebuilt, and now you are embarrassed to deprive those Uchiha who originally belonged to us of power for such a bastard reason?
Hell, are we really all stupid Uchiha?
Although he was also very dissatisfied in his heart, in order to take care of the overall situation, Uchiha Fugaku finally endured it.
"Patriarch, we can't sit back and wait like this anymore!" Several militants kept shouting.
"Then what do you say?" Uchiha Fugaku finally slowly opened his eyes and asked rhetorically with a heavy face.
"Konoha is unkind, don't blame us for Uchiha injustice!"
The most reactionary Uchiha Agni, sure enough, people are as strong as fire, and if they don't agree with each other, they are doing things.
"Patriarch, it's better to take advantage of the fact that the Konoha higher-ups haven't been ruthless to us Uchiha, let's directly attack the Hokage Building and seize power!"
“……!”
After listening to the other party's proposal, Uchiha Fugaku almost held back a mouthful of old blood.
It's lightweight, do you think it's a game of play? Can you take it if you say it's captured?
However, Uchiha Fugaku still patiently dissuaded,
"There are not a few elite ninjas on the Hokage's side, even if we are all Uchiha elites, I'm afraid we will have to go through a hard battle."
"Don't forget, that thousand-armed Lomi who awakened Mu Dun is on the side of the four generations of Hokage!"
Although I don't want to admit it, but other people's records are really there, and it's useless if you want to deny it!
"Patriarch, as far as I know, that thousand-handed Lomi hasn't been back to Konoha for two or three years, and I heard that he has been busy with construction outside, so he has no intention of coming back."
Uchiha Agni analyzed disappreciatively, "As the saying goes, far water can't save near fire, as long as we succeed in taking power from Konoha and wait until the dust settles, even if Senju Lomi really returns, what can we do." The Thousand Hands Clan has long since fallen, could it be that he will still come to us for a few high-level Konoha leaders with low eyes and low skills to come to us Uchiha? ”
Well, Uchiha Fugaku admits that the other party's analysis is indeed very reasonable.
If a successful coup d'état can be staged before Lomi returns to Konoha, then he will naturally have bargaining chips to negotiate with the other party.
But the problem is that even without the uncertainty of the thousand-armed Lomi, the Uchiha clan is not completely sure that the coup will succeed!
You militants, one by one, seem to think about the problem too simply, really think that there is a thousand-armed Lomi in the town on the Hokage's side!
Uchiha Fugaku glanced at the other party lightly, but did not reply.
"That, patriarch......"
Just when the scene fell silent, a militant named Uchiha Ishirashi suddenly stood up and proposed,
"Since we don't have full confidence in launching a coup d'état, otherwise, we will just break away from Konoha!"
"There is no master here, there is a place to keep the master!"
After listening to the other party's proposal, including Uchiha Fugaku and other militants, everyone cast a look at this Uchiha Shi Rakushi looking at the mentally retarded.
Break away from Konoha?
Do you think Konoha is something you can stay if you want to stay and leave if you want?
Do you think you're Madara Uchiha?
Will people watch you leave Konoha safe and sound with Uchiha's blood? And then wait for your wings to harden and then come back for revenge?
Even if we Uchiha do manage to break away from Konoha so what? Where can you go?
Cloud Hidden? Iwakure? Foggy? Sand hidden?
Don't be stupid, people have long coveted the writing wheel, and I wish you had it delivered to your door!
Besides, even if people are really willing to accept the Uchiha clan, so what? As far as our Uchiha nostrils are concerned, it's no wonder that we can get along well with others!
Even Konoha, the most tolerant of the people, can't accommodate the Uchiha clan, so can we expect other villages to be willing to take us in?
Oh, don't you want to say, or we can find our own village and live our own.
Hehe, without the protection of big trees, do you still want to live your own little life?
Eat on you! I'm afraid you're not losing your mind!
Do you believe that someone took the initiative to knock on the door every minute to grab the writing wheel and directly brush our Uchiha as a copy?
Seeing everyone's strange eyes, Uchiha Shi Rakushi knew that he should have said the wrong thing, so he immediately closed his mouth and retracted his head.
"Patriarch, soon it's our annual Uchiha clan meeting!"
"This kind of question related to the future of our Uchiha clan should be decided by everyone!"
Since Uchiha Fugaku, who is the patriarch, has not been able to give everyone a satisfactory answer, then everyone can only force the other party to make up their minds through "democratic voting".
"Okay!"
At this time, Uchiha Fugaku already knew that his own prestige alone might not be able to suppress the contradictions in everyone's hearts, so he could only nod helplessly.
