The reason why Uchiha Tokumitsu said bluntly at the Kamito meeting was because there was almost no possibility of harmonious coexistence between the Uchiha clan and the other ninja clans in the village.

It's like two tigers fighting, and there must be a mistake; Whether it's the Uchiha, who has just come out of the predicament of being marginalized, or the ninja who are enjoying power that does not match their strength, unless one party chooses to back down, there is no possibility of living in harmony.

Because Konoha is too small, and there are too many wealthy families.

The cake was so big, the Uchiha jumped out and ate an extra piece, and the ninjas naturally ate one less bite.

And Uchiha Tokumitsu's words in the upper ninja meeting also caused an uproar in Konoha.

Traditionally, Konoha has been dominated by friendship and bonding, believing in the power of love and protection, while Uchiha Tokumitsu is an unabashed martial artist.

So what followed was an overwhelming barrage of accusations and insults.

Even if he didn't dare to speak out in front of the ninjas of the police department, there were more and more complaints behind it.

In this regard, the Hokage Building said that it was happy to hear about it.

Some within the Uchiha clan began to lose their seats.

But they didn't dare to talk in front of the overly radical Uchiha Tokumitsu, but ran to the Elder Instant and complained.

And the chief of the police department and the patriarch of the Uchiha Quartet also felt all kinds of invisible pressures.

But based on the position of strength, it can't be used as a reason to attack Uchiha Tokumitsu.

As a last resort, I had to organize a meeting between the elders of each house and the senior management of the police department in their mansions to discuss countermeasures.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the public opinion in the village is really unfavorable to our people, if there is any countermeasure, please speak freely."

After briefly explaining the cause of the public opinion turmoil, the Quartet patriarch threw the question to the elders and high-ranking officials of the police department who attended the meeting.

Although the Elder Instant attended the meeting, he kept his eyes closed.

The Uchiha people present did not say a word, but simply set their eyes on the perpetrator, Uchiha Tokumitsu.

"When did the Uchiha start to fear these gossips?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu got up and looked around and said slowly.

The radical clansmen nodded in agreement.

"The strength of the family is the foundation of our foothold, and what loss can outsiders' words bring us?"

"As for those unpleasant words, have they been missing in the past few decades? Why do you care so much now? ”

"As long as there are thousands of ninja troops in the family, as long as they don't dare to grin in front of the clansmen, those public opinions are just the wailing of defeated dogs, so what's there to fear!"

"Seniors, please don't forget, only strength is the foundation of a ninja's life!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu's words silenced the people in attendance.

"Besides, the existence of rumors can also make us better discern enemies and allies!" Uchiha Tokumitsu raised his voice and said, "Only those who still stand with Uchiha in such a situation, and still serve Uchiha, can be regarded as our allies!" ”

"Allies ......"

One of the elders sighed.

The arrogant Uchiha has made many enemies, but his allies have always been few. Even after entering the Ninja Village era, there are only a few relatives who have been related by marriage since the Warring States period.

"Unite what we can unite, and fight what affects our unity, that's enough!" Uchiha Tokumitsu's words drew a nod of approval from the radicals.

In an instant, the elder also opened his eyes.

"But it's always not good to be like this, in order for the family to go further, the blame of public opinion still has to be resolved......

The conservative Elder Michiyo said weakly.

"Unprovoked accusations will not last long, and in a few days, civilians who are busy with their livelihoods and tasks will put this matter behind them."

Uchiha Tokumitsu said patiently, "As long as we don't change ourselves because of other people's words, then others will quickly adapt to us." ”

These words made Elder Michiyo a little dumbfounded.

It may sound unfounded, but when you think about it, it seems to be true.

"Moreover, we can also throw some bait to guide the wind of public opinion."

"Tell me more!"

For the first time, the Elder spoke.

"Recruit foreign ninja cadets from the Police Preparatory School to join the Police Department."

Uchiha Tokumitsu threw out his thoughts: "In this way, it can not only dilute the Uchiha color of the police department, but also let civilians and small ninja people see another way." ”

"That is, following the Uchiha clan must have a future!"

It's not that it's not impossible, some newcomers to the lower ninja level have no effect on the Uchiha clan who are in charge of the police department.

Although it will change the Uchiha clan's monopoly position in the police department, it will also help improve the public opinion pressure faced by the family in the village.

The top brass of the police department nodded their heads.

After thinking for a moment, Chief Uchiha also agreed.

"But in this case, the village may not be able to provide enough funds, and the extra part will be self-financed or paid by the family?"

Uchiha Fugaku raised his hand and asked.

"After all, the police department is one of the various departments in the village, what is the expenditure of family funds!" When it comes to money, even the conservative elders can't sit still.

"There are two ways to replenish the funds of the police department-" Uchiha Tokumitsu stopped the crowd's argument, "fees and fines!" ”

This kind of topic was mentioned by Uchiha Tokumitsu at the first meeting of the Ministry of Police Restructuring, but at that time, the clan felt that they couldn't get over it and put it aside.

But now that the police department is really facing financial difficulties, the face problem cannot be taken care of for the time being.

"Do the fines and fees collected remain at the discretion of the Executive Office?"

At the signal of his superiors, a superintendent of the Eastern Police Station raised his hand and asked.

"Absolutely not!"

The chief Uchiha Quartet was furious: "All funds should be allocated by the police headquarters!" ”

"Isn't that a day worker?" Uchiha Nakagen, the chief of the Western District Police Agency, said unhappily, "With such a seizure of power, the brothers below will have a lot of opinions!" ”

He is the father of Uchiha Tokumitsu, and he is the representative of the Uchiha clan's 'father is more precious than son', so he doesn't care about the authority of the patriarch and chief.

"The revenue from fees and fines can be divided between the administration and the headquarters, and some of the funds collected by the administration can be retained for free use, and then the rest can be transferred to the headquarters for centralized allocation, so that the income of each administration can also be balanced......," Uchiha Tokumitsu hurriedly said.

"But the problem of the proportion of this share is ......"

The Commissioner of the Eastern Police Department couldn't sit still.

"That's it!"

Seeing that the topic was about to come to the issue of dividing the money, the elder had to stop it in an instant.

"What kind of vulgarity has become at the clan meeting! You go back to the police department and talk about it yourself behind closed doors! ”

Under the suppression of the Great Elder's authority, the high-ranking officers of the police department, who were originally excited, were silenced one after another.

"I see...... All radical conservatives are just vain, and you are all money-collectors in essence! ”

In an instant, the elder complained mercilessly.

"Back to our original topic......" Patriarch Uchiha Shikata sighed, feeling that although he did have some prestige, it was also extremely limited, "Please continue to talk about how to unite allies through the police department......"

"For example, the collection of fees and fine income just involved can actually be handed over to the newcomers of the police department to handle, and our clan can not participate in this matter......

Uchiha Tokumitsu said his thoughts: "There are also daily dispute mediation, neighborhood disputes, etc., which can also be gradually handed over to newcomers for execution, and the clansmen should withdraw from the general affairs as much as possible, and it is the king to practice more to improve their own strength." ”

"Wouldn't that lead to a loss of power in the police department?"

A police officer muttered.

And this is also the voice of the senior police officers here.

In the past, the Uchiha clan did not have much authority to wield, so the clan paid special attention to the power of the police department.

Even after the restructuring of the police department, the authority has risen sharply, but it will still not be able to change the strength of holding authority for a while.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please don't forget that only strength is the foundation of Uchiha's life." Uchiha Tokumitsu sighed, "Again, if the family can maintain the strength of thousands of ninja troops, the power of the police department will not be lost no matter what." ”

The people here are silent.

"In addition, the police department needs an operation to turn public opinion and point the kunai at those who maliciously attack us."

Uchiha Tokumitsu said again, "Strike hard through your actions to combat the lawlessness that exists within the village, so as to shift the attention of the villagers to them. ”

"The consortium of the Hyuga clan lends usury."

"The Shimura family's casino has a lot of income, and it pays a lot of money!"

"The Nara family hoards drugs and drives up the price of medicines!"

"The shop of the dormitory involves forced buying and selling!"

After a while, everyone gossiped and listed all kinds of bad deeds of various ninja clans.

In such a comparison, it seems that what the Uchiha clan has done is not excessive.

It's just that why did public opinion in the past overwhelmingly blame the Uchiha and the police department?

"Then let's take the Nara family!"

The Uchiha Quartet chose a target, "The price of drugs is also the topic that civilian ninjas are most concerned about, and cracking down on the drug dealers of the Nara family is also conducive to directing the attention of civilians." ”

"Agreed!"

The top brass of the police department nodded their heads, while the elders were noncommittal.

"Gentlemen......"

In an instant, the elder slowly spoke: "Please don't forget, only strength is the foundation of our life, don't care too much about those gossip." ”

When everyone heard this, they all bowed their heads and said yes.

"If it's okay, I'll go back first." In an instant, the elder stood up and bowed down to everyone, his eyes full of threat scanning them one by one.

Everywhere they looked, they looked down, but Uchiha Tokumitsu didn't realize it.

“…… Deguangjun will take a walk with me. “

"Yes!" Uchiha Tokumitsu got up and left with Elder Satsuna.

The two of them paced slowly in the clan land.

At night, the land is silent, and there are very few people walking around.

"You're doing a great job!"

In an instant, the Elder broke the silence.

"Everything depends on the cultivation of the Great Elder."

Uchiha Tokumitsu is still as respectful as ever to the elders.

"You deserve a status commensurate with your strength...... Elder Zena continued, "Don't forget that the Hokage's position is the goal of two generations of the family. ”

“…… Got it. ”

Uchiha Tokumitsu was silent for a moment before slowly replying.

"You're still young, and it doesn't matter if you're willing to wait, so it's okay to support whoever you want to take to the top, but remember to leave a place for yourself."

In an instant, the elder looked up at the moon hanging high in the sky.

The moonlight is so beautiful tonight.

Uchiha Tokumitsu just nodded.

"Tell me the truth, you've awakened the Kaleidoscope Writing Wheel Eye, haven't you?"

In an instant, the elder asked softly again.

"Yes......"

Uchiha Tokumitsu hesitated, but nodded in acknowledgement.

"Don't worry, it wasn't your subordinates who said it."

In an instant, the elder glanced at Uchiha Tokumitsu and understood what was in his heart.

"After awakening the kaleidoscope, there will be a ...... of pupil power Special taste. ”

In an instant, the elder thought about it and found a description that was not quite appropriate.

"I used to be Madara-sama's subordinate, so I remember this feeling of oppression that comes from the bloodline."

"Bloodline ......"

Uchiha Tokumitsu couldn't help but think of the source of the Uchiha clan's bloodline.

"The Kaleidoscope Pupil Technique is a top secret that should be kept secret, and you did the right thing."

In an instant, the elder took out three scrolls from his sleeve and handed them to Uchiha Tokumitsu.

"It's ......," Uchiha Tokumitsu took the scroll a little hesitantly.

"The forbidden art of the family, Ikina evil and Ikinami."

Elder Instant said, "Since you have awakened the Kaleidoscope Writing Wheel Eye, and it seems that you have not been confused by the short-term power brought by the Kaleidoscope Pupil Power, then it is only right for these two techniques to be handed over to you." ”

“…… There is also a third scroll, a kaleidoscope codex written by Madara-sama, a copy of which I secretly copied before Madara left the village. ”

For Uchiha Tokumitsu, this is a well-deserved gift.

"The reason why the family abandoned Madara-sama is because the Ninja Village era is no longer suitable for the Ninja Clan to fight alone." Elder Instant stopped Uchiha Tokumitsu from bowing, "The decline of the Wind Demon Clan and the Earth Spider Clan is the best proof of this. ”

"But the comfort of the ninja village is also the reason for the decline of the family's strength, trapped in the trivial affairs of the police department for too long, the clansmen will forget to fight, and once the strength declines, they will inevitably lose their status."

"The practice of a ninja is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat."

Uchiha Tokumitsu responded.

"That's right!" Like an ordinary old man who couldn't find someone to confide in for a long time, Elder Instant continued: "So it is very necessary to let the clansmen go to see the blood, and you have done a good job of this, Deguangjun. ”

"I once had a dream that after my death, the whole family was killed by traitors......" Back in front of the Elder's Mansion, the Elder stopped in an instant, turned to Uchiha Tokumitsu and said, "But since I learned of Danzo's death, I haven't had a nightmare......"

Uchiha Tokumitsu was silent.

"Tomorrow I will announce to my clan that you will take over as the lord, and the future will be handed over to you."

In an instant, the elder patted Uchiha Tokumitsu on the shoulder and walked into his mansion.

Uchiha Tokumitsu bowed to Elder Sakuna's back and left on his own.

Today's moonlight is indeed beautiful.

Uchiha Tokumitsu quietly opened the kaleidoscope writing wheel eye and looked directly at the moon where the goddess of U was sleeping.

I'm sorry for the delay in the second chapter update......
