Uchiha clan land.

Fugaku, who took over the power from the Elders of the Four Directions, has become the new leader of the Uchiha clan.

Although some radicals complained about this and wanted to nominate other clansmen to the position of patriarch, because this was an order issued by the elders of the four directions, they also had to obey the will of the elders of the four directions and obey the management of Fuyue.

After becoming the patriarch, Fu Yue realized that the position of the patriarch was not easy to do.

But becoming the patriarch of the Uchiha was something he dreamed of.

I thought that I would have a dragon fight with Liuli, but I didn't expect the other party to defect with some of the clansmen, and immediately lost the trust and support of the Quartet Elders, and instead let the Quartet Elders put their energy and effort on themselves.

This is a windfall.

Although Ruri's defection made Uchiha's situation in Konoha even more embarrassing.

At the top, the Uchiha also gradually became untrustworthy.

The two advisors and the head of the root group, Danzo, have openly criticized the inappropriateness of the Uchiha clan at the Shangnin meeting more than once, and the only one who can still speak for the Uchiha is the third Hokage Hisashi himself.

Even if Fugaku wants to refute some people's remarks, Ruri's defection to Konoha and the crime of hurting his companions are confirmed, and every time a shinobi meeting is held, there will be a large wave of strange eyes focused on Uchiha's discussion issues, which makes Fugaku feel very faceless.

I can't help but resent the bad behavior of Liuli defecting to the village, which is tantamount to discrediting the face of the clan.

Even no one in the family spoke for Ruri.

Not only did they injure the Elders of the Four Directions at the clan meeting, but they also destroyed the village that their Uchiha and the Senju clan had founded, and for the Uchiha clan who wanted to seize the Hokage's position, Ruri's defection disrupted all their deployments and undone their past efforts.

In this context, the members who followed Liuli to leave the clan were naturally nailed to the pillar of shame of the clan by them.

If it weren't for the fact that it was a time of war, they would have sent men to hunt down these Uchiha traitors.

"Fuyue, how does it feel to be a patriarch for the first time? Do you feel a sense of accomplishment? ”

Uchiha, a close confidant of the Elder of the Four Directions, found Fugaku at home and teased him.

"Where there is no sense of accomplishment, it is just the heavy mission of how to make the clan prosperous."

Fu Yue smiled bitterly.

At first, he was indeed immersed in the joy of becoming a patriarch, but the various busy affairs that followed almost made him tired.

In addition, I have to deal with the contact with the high-level, and many things seem jerky to do.

Especially in the group, he is seriously dissatisfied with the Uchiha's affairs, and he must be held accountable for Uchiha's dereliction of duty, and he must accept the monitoring of the dark department.

If it weren't for the three generations of Hokage blocking and suppressing Danzo's voice, it wouldn't be so easy to reveal this time.

This made Fugaku very grateful for the care of the three generations of Hokage.

Although he knew that the three generations of Hokage did this, he only valued the power of the Uchiha clan, and wanted to win over the Uchiha clan to integrate into the village, and at this time, he would do his best to maintain the balance of the village, but because of this, Fugaku felt relieved.

If he helps the Uchiha for no reason, Fugaku will be afraid of the Hokage, will it be unfavorable to the Uchiha.

"Don't be so pessimistic, even if the rest of the high-level leaders are not good for the Uchiha, as long as you are firmly connected with the Hokage, there won't be any big problems."

"Oh?"

This is also what the Quartet Elders mean. If you want to give birth to the Hokage in the Uchiha clan, the task is far great. It will always be good to have a good relationship with the current Hokage. ”

Lihuo said.

This is also the only way for the Uchiha to survive in Konoha.

Because when the time comes, whether the Uchiha takes the initiative to give up on the Hokage or is given up by the Hokage, the Uchiha in Konoha will usher in destruction.

Can only survive on the Hokage's snort.

"What Elder Quartet means, I see."

Fuyue nodded solemnly.

"It's best if you understand that."

"How's the Quartet Elder's health?"

Fugaku asked.

Since Liuli defected, he had heard that the health of the Elder of the Four Directions had been poor, and it was estimated that he was depressed.

"Don't worry, the elder's health is very good, and now that he is retired, he has enough time to recuperate. You don't have to worry about what happens over there, by the way, when are you going to go to the front? ”

Lihuo asked.

"Now that the affairs in the clan have almost calmed down, there are also three generations of Hokage on the high-level side to help suppress it, and I plan to lead the clan to the front line battlefield to support the morning after tomorrow."

Fu Yue thought for a while and said.

Although such words are superfluous, it is still necessary to protect yourself. The frontline battlefield is no better than in the village, and even if you have a writing wheel, you can die at any time. ”

"I understand, I'll take care of it. Is there anything else I need to do? ”

"No, you're the Uchiha patriarch now, just do what you want."

Lihuo shook his head, indicating that the Quartet Elder did not ask for anything.

"Please thank the elders for their trust on my behalf."

Fuyue moved slightly.

By doing this, the Elders of the Four Directions obviously intended to delegate power and make him truly the patriarch of the Uchiha clan, rather than manipulating him behind the scenes and treating him as a puppet patriarch who controlled the Uchiha.

This trust made Fu Yue very grateful.

After all, the authority of the Elders of the Four Directions in the Uchiha is not comparable to that of a second person, and if he insists on controlling it behind the scenes, Fugaku will not be able to resist the other party's remote control.

Seeing Fu Yue's touched look, Lihuo knew that he must have thought that the Quartet Elders had delegated power to him, which was an incomparable trust in his ability.

That old guy just didn't bother to bother with Konoha anymore. Lihuo complained in his heart.

In the future, even if the Uchiha here in Konoha fails, he will still be able to save the fire and pass on the Uchiha's incense.

But Fugaku's erroneous belief is a good thing.

After all, the truth is too cruel for him.

Passing on the position of patriarch to him is not because he trusts his ability, but because he is a short general, there is really no way to do it.

Of course, there is also a chance that Fugaku will succeed.

That is to lead the Uchiha clan, to make a living in the eyes of the high-level, to give up the glory and dignity of the clan, maybe one day the high-level will get rid of it, and the Uchiha clan can take advantage of the situation.

However, judging by Lihuo, don't say whether Fuyue will embark on this road, the clansmen would rather die with the higher-ups than survive in secret.

"Then I'll leave, and all the affairs of the clan will be left to you."

The main reason for coming from the fire is to hand over the work.

After all, he had just become the patriarch, Fu Yue's qualifications and ability to do things were very shallow, and many intelligence channels were in the hands of the Quartet Elders, and Lihuo needed to transfer these channels to Fu Yue.

Of course, there are also some intelligence channels that cannot be transferred, such as the line to contact the country of ghosts, which has been cut off by him and buried in the dust.

The Uchiha of Konoha and the Uchiha of the Oni Country will no longer have a secret communication channel and will be completely divided.

Seeing the fire leave, Fuyue also breathed a sigh of relief.

When he came from the fire, he thought that it was the Quartet Elder who wanted to convey some order.

Fortunately, I just came over to hand over some affairs.

In this way, the Uchiha clan will completely usher in a new era under the leadership of his Uchiha Fugaku.

Looking at the clear blue sky from the corridor, Fugaku was full of pride in his heart, full of confidence in his own ability, and he wanted to let the Uchiha clan bloom with unprecedented brilliance in his hands, standing at the highest point of Konoha Village.

◎

In the exercise ground.

"Whew...... Call...... Mr. Watergate is so strong......"

Lin gasped, with a lot of colors hanging on her body, looking at the water gate who was unscathed in the field, and sighed at the strength of Shangnin.

Obito is also not much better, looking at the eyes of the water gate, his face is full of unwillingness.

Obviously, he has worked very hard, but in the hands of Watergate, he was still tricked, and when he looked at Kakashi's side again, the unwillingness in his heart became even stronger.

The reason is that only Kakashi succeeded in snatching the bell from Watergate and passed Watergate's actual combat test.

Whether it was during school or after becoming a ninja, the distance between himself and Kakashi has never been closer, but as time goes by, the gap has become wider and wider.

Kakashi held a white fanged dagger in his hand, a pale blue glimmer attached to it, and a fine electric current wound around the blade.

Kakashi was still not satisfied with the thunder and lightning on the White Fang Short Knife, his chakra control was still not enough, and he actually let the thunder attribute chakra leak out of the blade.

As for the bell in the other hand, it was snatched from Watergate, but it didn't prove anything.

He knew that the water gate had been seriously released in the battle just now.

Just like what the other party said, this is just an exercise to understand their strength, not a real battle of life and death.

I still have some way to go from Shangshinobi.

But I also understand that the strength of the water gate is not comparable to ordinary ninja, especially the physical technique and the instantaneous body technique.

The sense of oppression brought by this gap reminded him of the helplessness of being a shadow dancer when he was training with Shiraishi in the past.

No matter where they attacked, they were seen through, and even the bell was grabbed, because of the release of the water gate.

"Okay, the exercise is over, I have a general idea of the strength of the three of you, and in general, you all have great potential. Today is the first day we met, let's find a place to have a meal together, and the teacher will come to treat us. ”

Watergate walked over and said with a smile.

"Really? Mr. Watergate? ”

Obito asked in surprise.

"Of course, you can tell the teacher what you want to eat."

Watergate nodded and smiled.

Kakashi shrugged his shoulders indifferently and removed the thunder attribute chakra from the White Fang Short Knife and placed it in the scabbard behind his back.

Seeing this, Mizumon was also relieved, thinking that Kakashi would coldly refuse, it seems that the problem is not serious enough to close himself, basically for the advice of his companions, he can listen to it a little bit.

Of course, listening to it and whether it will cooperate is another matter.

At least in the exercise just now, Kakashi was fighting alone, and Obito and Rin were fighting together.

After eating together, Mizuto left for the time being, and walked to the Hokage Building, reporting on the content of his work and the measures he was going to implement in the Mizuto class in the future, and he had to explain to the Hokage.

"Kakashi, I'll definitely surpass you!"

Seeing Kakashi's powerful skills and amazing sword skills, Obito is full of fighting spirit and moves forward with Kakashi as his goal.

"Then you can do your best. I'll go back first. ”

Kakashi glanced at Obito with a serious expression and turned to leave.

Saying goodbye to Obito and Rin, Kakashi went home directly, and today's main job is to get to know the new leader of the team, Shinobi, and after seeing it, the next thing is the cultivation time.

Just as Kakashi was about to go to the courtyard to cultivate, a head popped up on the floor of the living room, followed by a body made of half clay.

Shiraishi's doppelganger, the Earth General.

"Come here at this time, is there something going on?"

Kakashi asked, unsurprised.

Shogun put a scroll in Kakashi's hand, and it lurked underground, disappearing.

Kakashi unraveled the scroll and read it after Shogun left.

After reading it, Kakashi's brow furrowed.

The information recorded on this is simple, his new teammate Uchiha Obito is being targeted by some mysterious force.

Even if you take yourself in the Watergate class, you have to be careful, and you need to be cautious when you encounter things.

"That idiot, is there any benefit in keeping an eye on that guy?"

Kakashi was a little surprised, although he didn't think there was anything coveted about that stupid person, but it had happened, and he really needed to pay attention to it.

Kakashi burned the scroll on fire, leaving no trace, before heading to the courtyard to begin practicing swordsmanship.

◎

After passing the information to Kakashi, Shogun began to follow one of the targets, following along.

The other party was in the soil layer, and it took most of the day to move before he had the intention of stopping, and this was no longer the boundary of the Fire Country.

General Tu realized that the front was likely to be the enemy's stronghold.

According to the available information, there is a Sharingan ninja with a powerful pupil technique in the opposing camp, and he can't be careless.

Illusion is too cumbersome to fight against this type of enemy.

Therefore, General Tu felt that he had to move forward cautiously next.

General Earth let out the clone of the water that was lodged in his body.

Then take out a slip of paper and write on it.

- I'll blow up the enemy's stronghold in five minutes, and summon me back with a reverse psychic spell after five seconds.

In the face of the powerful illusion, General Tu was obviously very jealous.

As such, it requires the Serpent to summon it back five seconds after it explodes, using reverse psychic spells to avoid head-on confrontation with enemies.

The serpent nodded, and then burrowed into the grass and disappeared.

General Earth began to dive underground, cautiously exploring ahead.

◎

"Madara-sama, I've found a good target, and the other party must meet your selection criteria."

In the dimly lit cave, Bai Jue returned with good news.

The old man sitting on the wooden chair, Madara Uchiha, immediately opened his eyes, and the scarlet magatama exuded a strange color, aiming at Bai Jue.

Bai Jue didn't feel scared at all, and grinned at Madara heartlessly.

"Madara-sama, this is the information of that guy, I've almost collected it, I can guarantee that he must be the perfect person."

Shiraku couldn't wait to tell Madara all kinds of information about Obito.

What kind of personality the other party is, his future ideals, his usual life style, including the person he likes, and how many times he helped his grandmother cross the road in a day, are all clearly recorded.

"It's unbelievable to say, that guy sometimes only takes one day, to help more than 20 grandmothers, the probability of him meeting grandmothers even surprised me, this special physique that attracts grandmothers is stranger than ours."

Bai Jue said with a grin.

Madara didn't mind Hakujue's funny and exaggerated tone, and Madara wouldn't believe that such creatures could have brains other than their stealth abilities.

Bai Jue's words are often thought about without thinking through the brain.

Madara knows this.

Madara listened carefully to Bai Jue's narration, and immediately imagined the image of Obito in his mind.

With a strong sense of love and kindness.,Brainless.,There are goals that you like and cherish.,It's also a ninja of the Uchiha clan.。

This is indeed the perfect candidate.

"Uchiha Obito?"

"That's right. Madara-sama, do you want to bring him here now? ”

Bai Jue asked.

"No, not yet. It's not time yet, and how to arrange his future life is a very troublesome thing. ”

Madara said calmly.

"Really? Then I'll leave it there for now. However, I also have a little doubt that this little ghost can do it, after all, he is not a genius of the Uchiha clan. ”

Bai Jue is talking about writing wheels.

"The age of opening eyes is not directly related to talent. Everyone's life experience is different, and the ninja of Uchiha, if they want to gain power, they have to sink into darkness. Seeing a cherished person destroy before your eyes is the beginning of the Fall. After that, let him see the darkness and misery in the ninja world, and stimulate him with stronger darkness...... This was his life as a puppet. ”

The darker it is, the more it stimulates the growth of the writing wheel.

Especially the Uchiha, who is kind-natured, how full of kindness and love he once was, how completely he sank into darkness.

That intense darkness will prompt the evolution of the Sharingan.

"That's really looking forward to it."

Bai Jue grinned.

He could not understand the grievances of human beings, whether it was laughter or sadness, he did not have that kind of experience.

Madara's command is their white will.

No need to think, just do what you are told.

"By the way, there's one more thing that's a little weird."

Bai Jue remembered something and said.

"What's strange?"

"That is, this time we went to Konoha to investigate, and there were no obstacles, and the rest of the white never had problems. And before that, something big happened in Konoha. ”

"Big deal?"

"The Uchiha and some of Hinata's clan have defected to Konoha together."

Bai Jue said.

"Defection?"

Madara raised his head, revealing a wrinkled old face with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Yes, I don't know what's going on, but after that, we'll be able to lurk under Konoha unimpeded."

The meaning of the white absolute is very clear, the reason for the inexplicable disappearance of the white absolute who went to Konoha in the past may be related to the defected Uchiha and the Hyuga ninja.

"Who caused it?"

"Konoha Nakashi, whose name is Chiba Shiraishi, before that, the other party was an ordinary medical ninja in Konoha. He has an Uchiha's girlfriend, Ruri Uchiha, and it seems that the two of them jointly initiated the defection. ”

Bai Jue replied.

"More detail?"

"No, that's all I can hear. Or when I was spying on the Uchiha, I heard it by chance from the mouths of some Uchiha ninjas. I guess the top of Konoha issued a gag order to the bottom. ”

Bai Jue helplessly spread out his hand.

"To find out where these people are, I need to know what happened to them."

Madara didn't hesitate to give the order.

Regardless of whether any of these people who defected to Konoha had secretly fought with the Hakujue he had sent to the past, the Uchiha who left Konoha alone was worth exploring the secrets within.

Because this incident was completely unexpected by him, he was not prepared at all in advance.

"Madara-sama, don't worry about this matter."

Bai Jue smiled and agreed.

After all, intelligence exploration is their job.

"Alright, you can go down, I need to rest now-"

Rumble!

The earth suddenly burst into flames.

The chair Madara sat on, surrounded by a large number of thick trees, protected himself from the wind, and flew into the darkness, and he could hear the constant gasps of pain coming from the darkness.

"Madara-sama!"

Hakujue shouted Madara's name loudly.

He was also uncomfortable, although the power of the bomb was sent from the ground, and the force of the explosion was not fully exerted through the hard soil, but the huge shock force still made him feel the same pain as the displacement of his internal organs.

And Madara's vitality is extremely weak at the moment, and Hakujue is very worried that Madara will die in the explosion of the surprise attack.

"Ahem...... Ahem......"

Madara sat crookedly in his chair, blood spitting out of his mouth, his fingers and body trembling, his breathing becoming rapid, and the flame of life seemed to sway in the chaotic wind, getting weaker and weaker.

It took him a moment to regain his breath, and the scarlet chakra eyes swept coldly towards the place where the explosion had just occurred.

There was a not very large crater there, but no enemy was to be seen.

"I'm fine, the power of the Divine Tree can still supply me with life force."

Madara's words made Bai Jue calm down for the time being, but the weakness in his tone was also difficult to hide.

On top of that, he found blood stains on the wooden chair Madara was sitting on, and he was obviously not lightly injured, but he only survived with the help of the power supply of the 'Divine Tree'.

"Madara-sama, what are we going to do now?"

Bai Jue was a little overwhelmed, and now Madara's strength was extremely weak, and he definitely couldn't participate in the battle.

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly ran out of nowhere and another white peer.

However, unlike ordinary Bai Jue, his face is swirling.

"Madara-sama, what's going on? Why did it suddenly become so noisy, did it earthquake? I was just thinking about how I could poop upside down. Madara-sama, do you know how to poop upside down? ”

"Ah Fei, don't make trouble, there are enemies coming, go and get rid of them!"

Madara coldly gave the order.

Unexpectedly made him Uchiha Madara suffer such a big loss, it seems that he is not a simple enemy.

"There are enemies?"

It seems that he has just reacted, and Bai Jue, named Ah Fei, also realized the seriousness of the matter, and his usual face was steady, and his tone was already cold and murderous.

Ah Fei's body immediately melted into the soil layer, lost his figure, and went to look for the enemy in Madara.

"Call the rest of the whites, we're going to get out of here."

Madara gave another order to the white absolute who was left behind.

Now that the stronghold has been discovered, it means that this place is no longer safe.

The base must be moved immediately.

Thinking of this, the corners of Madara's mouth couldn't help but feel bitter. It's really a life that lasts a long time.

He Uchiha Madara was so majestic back then, and at this moment he actually wanted to avoid an enemy of this level.

If that man knew, he would have made fun of him.

This kind of down-and-out posture is really humiliating.
