Kajiyamari's Mission to Konoha

Orochimaru quickly guessed that Yichen was behind it all, but Orochimaru's magnanimity was extraordinary.

If Yichen had used his tricks on Danzo would have been furious, but Orochimaru simply laughed it off.

The fact that Yichen was able to scheme against him through trickery only shows that Yichen was cunning and not cautious enough.

It's not worth getting angry about this.

Moreover, by a twist of fate, he happened to uncover some of the secrets of the Caged Bird.

With that thought in mind, Orochimaru left the laboratory and went to the office of the Snake Pit Village chief, a place he rarely visited.

Sitting in his office, he considered what he could offer.

Orochimaru wrote a letter, then summoned several subordinates and instructed them, "Go to Iwagakure as an envoy of the village and present this letter to the Tsuchikage."

"Yes," the group replied respectfully.

These subordinates weren't considered Orochimaru's core group, so Orochimaru didn't say anything more to them and simply waved them away.

In addition to expressing his desire to cooperate with Orochimaru, Yichen also conveyed the same idea to Fugaku Uchiha.

However, Yichen's approach to Fugaku Uchiha was much gentler.

On this day, an envoy from Iwagakure, who had come to Konoha to discuss cooperation, entered Konoha.

The person in charge of the mission was none other than Yichen, a disciple of the Tsuchikage, Kajiyamari.

As one of Yichen's first disciples and a classmate of Kawakita Tomoko, Kajiyamari's status was not low in the eyes of the Konoha ninja.

The delegation followed proper channels, and both the Tsuchikage and the Daimyo of the Land of Fire were paying attention. Konoha couldn't refuse to receive them, nor could they accept a low-level reception.

So, after the first day's meeting, Tsunade assigned Shizune, the Hokage's assistant, to be in charge of entertaining Kajiyamari and the others.

Although he came under the guise of an envoy to discuss cooperation, Kajiyamari kept delaying the negotiations.

According to Yichen, there are three tasks for Kajiyamari.

The first was simply to disgust the Konoha High-ranking officials and make them uncomfortable. This was achieved the moment Kajiyamari stepped into Konoha.

At the very least, because of Kajiyamari's arrival, Tsunade has to handle more than a dozen extra documents every day. And these documents can't just be glanced at and moved on.

Tsunade was getting increasingly annoyed by having to rack her Tsunade trying to figure out Kajiyamari's strange daily behavior.

Kajiyamari knew that Yichen liked the way the Konoha High-ranking officials hated him but couldn't do anything about it.

Kajiyamari's second task was to contact Fugaku Uchiha, not through clandestine means, but through a very formal and open visit.

Kajiyamari has already brought this up with Konoha in public on many occasions.

Tsunade, naturally, always chose to refuse immediately.

However, Kajiyamari didn't care at all; he neither caused trouble nor insisted on anything.

As soon as Tsunade and the others refused, he would immediately nod in agreement, and then submit the application again the next day.

Furthermore, aside from occasionally engaging in so-called negotiations with the Konoha High-ranking officials, Kajiyamari spent his Tenten wandering around Konoha, loudly inquiring about the Uchiha Clan whenever he met someone.

To convey the goodwill of Iwagakure towards the Uchiha Clan Iwagakure all Konoha ninja and civilians.

This made Tsunade very uncomfortable. With the village's internal troubles still unresolved, Tsunade did not want to confront Iwagakure.

But Iwa ninja repeatedly obstructed her from resolving the internal troubles.

At the Nanga Shrine, Fugaku Uchiha and many other Uchiha with the three-tomoe jewels are holding a clan meeting.

Well, Shisui Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha didn't come. They've been ostracized by the entire Uchiha.

"Clan leader, the Iwa ninja delegation has come to Konoha. This is our opportunity."

"Yes, clan leader. Winning over the Iwa ninja to oppose the Konoha High-ranking officials is in our best interest."

"The village actually sent Anbu to block us and prevent us from getting close to the Iwa ninja delegation. How outrageous!"

"That's right, the village is trying to cut us off from the outside world; their intentions are despicable!"

"Clan leader, let's join forces with the Iwa ninja and rebel!"

The Uchiha Clan meeting was as noisy and chaotic as ever, with no rules whatsoever.

Fugaku Uchiha, as always, wore a deathly expression, believing himself to be as dignified as jade.

In the past, during clan meetings, he would usually only have a chance to say a few words that seemed like a summary, but in reality, no one listened to him, after everyone had calmed down.

However, today, Fugaku Uchiha was acting strangely. Before everyone had finished arguing, he found an opening and said, "I need to find out why the Iwa ninja came to the village so publicly and kept saying they wanted to see me."

As he spoke, Fugaku Uchiha looked around and, seeing that everyone was looking at him, nodded in satisfaction.

So he directly named someone. "Tekka, this task is yours. You select five clansmen with Three Tomoe) and send them to see that Earth Shadow's disciple tonight."

Tekka Uchiha was overjoyed upon hearing this and quickly replied, "Yes, clan leader, rest assured, I will definitely complete the mission."

Then, Tekka Uchiha began selecting helpers from among the crowd. After all, all the Three Tomoe Uchiha Clan members were there.

Then everyone started discussing Tekka Uchiha's plans for the night with great enthusiasm. Fugaku Uchiha was once again left out in the cold.

Fugaku Uchiha was already used to this and didn't care, continuing to sit majestically in the head seat.

After everyone discussed and came up with a detailed action plan, the clan meeting quickly came to an end.

After disbanding the clan association, Tekka Uchiha and the Uchiha he had chosen immediately began preparations.

There wasn't much to prepare. They were extremely familiar with the streets of Konoha. As Uchiha in charge of the Police Force, how could they not know the village well?

After dark, amidst the farewells of the other Uchiha, Tekka Uchiha quietly left the clan territory with his five subordinates.

At this moment, Fugaku Uchiha was standing in his own yard, pondering the possible reactions of the High-ranking officials.

Fugaku Uchiha was just indecisive, not stupid. If he really wanted to secretly contact Kajiyamari, why would he bring it up at the clan meeting?

He just wanted to see how the Konoha High-ranking officials would react to his actions.

He also genuinely wanted to know what the Iwagakure, or rather, the Yichen Kajiyamari of the Yichen Sect, wanted to do in Konoha.

After a while, Fugaku Uchiha, Itachi Uchiha's eldest son who pleased and made him the proudest, came out of the house.

"Father," Itachi Uchiha called softly.

Fugaku Uchiha tilted his head slightly to glance at his son. Itachi Uchiha rarely initiated conversations with him, and he wanted to hear what his son had to say this time.

"Father, you sent Tekka and the others to contact the Iwa ninja delegation? Don't you know that this is something the High-ranking officials wouldn't allow?" Itachi Uchiha said with a hint of disappointment.

Fugaku Uchiha merely frowned slightly, without replying.

Itachi Uchiha continued, "Father, don't let the clansmen run rampant. If this continues, it will bring disaster upon the entire clan one day."

Fugaku Uchiha asked calmly and authoritatively, "Itachi, what kind of calamity do you think it is?"

Without much thought, Itachi Uchiha replied directly, "The calamity of the clan's extermination."

Upon hearing this, Fugaku Uchiha frowned sharply.

He wasn't shocked by what Itachi Uchiha said; he was shocked by Itachi Uchiha's tone.

Having served as the head of the Uchiha Clan for so many years, and having awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan himself, he also learned in detail about the awakening processes of Shisui Uchiha, Sokai, and Izumi Uchiha.

Fugaku Uchiha had a very deep understanding of the Mangekyō Sharingan, a level that even Itachi Uchiha couldn't match when he was dying in the original story.

Itachi Uchiha naively believed that he could awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan simply by seeing the person he cared about most die before his eyes.

So they tried to use Tsukuyomi on Sasuke again and again, but it was completely useless.

However, Fugaku Uchiha gradually understood the reason for awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan and the reason why the various Mangekyō Sharingan techniques were different.

So when he heard Itachi Uchiha firmly and decisively utter the words "extermination of the clan," he had an ominous premonition.

"No, Itachi is still young, his mind can still be changed, I can't let him go down this path." Countless thoughts raced through Fugaku Uchiha's mind, his Chakra fluctuated abnormally, and even his deadpan expression was almost impossible to maintain.

"Itachi, you're still young. Don't get involved in this. Resign from your position in Root and join the Police Force tomorrow."

Fugaku Uchiha planned to personally instill some correct ideas in his outstanding son.

Unfortunately, his proud son didn't give him that opportunity.

Itachi Uchiha said emotionally, "Does Father share the same narrow-minded thoughts as those clansmen? One day you will regret it."

After saying this, Itachi Uchiha left home and disappeared from Fugaku Uchiha's sight in a few leaps.

Fugaku Uchiha opened his mouth several times but couldn't utter a single word. Only one voice echoed in his mind, "You'll regret this!"

"I'll regret this, Itachi. Is this what you really think?"

Fugaku Uchiha took a deep breath, wanting to use the Mangekyō Sharingan's eye technique to see the future, but hesitated for a moment and then gave up.

He no longer really believes in the future he sees through his Mangekyō Sharingan.

Tekka Uchiha led five clansmen to the inn where the Iwa ninja were staying in Kajiyamari, and then easily subdued an Anbu Squad was monitoring them nearby using Sharingan Genjutsu.

He left five men to keep watch outside, Tekka Uchiha entered the inn alone.

However, what Tekka Uchiha and the others didn't know was that two pairs of Byakugan were watching this spot from a kilometer away.

Soon, the actions of Tekka Uchiha and the others were reported to Tsunade and other high-ranking officials.

Kajiyamari opened her eyes the moment Tekka Uchiha entered the inn.

He walked to the reception room and waited there confidently.

Seeing this, Tekka Uchiha frowned slightly, but said nothing. The powerful Uchiha were not afraid of any conspiracy.

He wasn't afraid of whatever tricks Kajiyamari might play.

Seeing that Tekka Uchiha wasn't wearing a mask, Kajiyamari carefully compared the information in his mind and then asked, "Are you Tekka Uchiha, the Elite Jonin of the Uchiha Clan?"

Tekka Uchiha nodded and said, "That's right. You're Kajiyamari?"

Kajiyamari was not angry because of Tekka Uchiha's arrogant tone.

Before coming, Yichen repeatedly warned that the Uchiha Clan were a bunch of lunatics. When dealing with the Uchiha Clan, never go against them; always go along with what they want.

This Tekka Uchiha is clearly an arrogant fool who thinks he's the best in the world.

Tekka Uchiha Gate of Opening, saying, "What brings you Iwa ninja from Kajiyamari to our Uchiha Clan Head?"

Kajiyamari thought for a moment, telling herself to remain calm and not get angry. Then she said, "We want to cooperate with Konoha, but the Konoha High-ranking officials is corrupt. Therefore, we hope to cooperate with the most dynamic and powerful Uchiha Clan in Konoha."

Tekka Uchiha didn't think Kajiyamari was flattering him. Because what Kajiyamari said was the truth, and that's what all the ninjas of the Uchiha Clan thought.

Tekka Uchiha asked, "How does the Tsuchikage plan to cooperate?"

Kajiyamari said, "We can help the Uchiha Clan regain control of Konoha. After you regain power, you can work with our Iwagakure to maintain order in the Ninja World."

Kajiyamari spoke the shameless words that Yichen had taught him, forcing himself to appear calm and not reveal any unusual expression.

Tekka Uchiha simply nodded; he was very satisfied with what Kajiyamari had said.

"How many combatants can the Iwa ninja send out?" Tekka Uchiha asked.

Kajiyamari looked like he'd bitten his tongue. "How can we negotiate like this? Neither of our leaders are here, and we're already discussing such in-depth issues?"

Do you think we're discussing battle plans here?

Forcibly suppressing the urge to roll her eyes, Kajiyamari brainwashed herself as she said, "My teacher, the Fourth Earth Shadow, will personally intervene, as will Sokai. In addition, our Third Lord and Kawakita can restrain some of Konoha High-ranking officials at the border."

Kajiyamari tried her best to offer what she believed to be the greatest sincerity based on her own understanding.

However, Tekka Uchiha questioned with dissatisfaction, "Why aren't the Iwa ninja using their full strength? Don't you still have two Jinchuriki?"

Kajiyamari, barely suppressing the urge to slap him, said, "Our situation in Iwa ninja isn't good either; we're also facing threats from Cloud ninja and Sunagakure."

"The Cloud ninja have Perfect Jinchuriki. We don't have the powerful Sharingan of your Uchiha Clan, so we still have to rely on Jinchuriki to deal with Jinchuriki."

Kajiyamari is spouting nonsense with a straight face.

Tekka Uchiha nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this and said, "I understand. I will relay Iwagakure's request back to the clan. You can wait here for news."

"Good grief, you know you can't make the decisions, huh? Anyone who didn't know better would think you'd awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan and replaced Fugaku Uchiha as the new head of the Uchiha Clan," Kajiyamari thought to himself.

After saying this, Tekka Uchiha thought he had received a relatively satisfactory answer and turned to leave.

After Tekka Uchiha left, Kajiyamari finally breathed a sigh of relief. Goodness, that was more tiring than a battle.

At that moment, several people walked in from outside. They were all members of the Iwa ninja delegation. They had all heard the conversation between Kajiyamari and Tekka Uchiha.

One of them said, "Kajiyamari, you just now..."

Kajiyamari waved his hand, indicating that he needed to rest and was too exhausted to speak.

Another person said, "This Tekka Uchiha is too strange. I almost thought the Lord Tsuchikage and Fugaku Uchiha were discussing launching a coup."

"That's right, I feel the same way. And I feel like it's not a discussion, but rather the Lord Tsuchikage reporting to Fugaku Uchiha." another person said.

Everyone else laughed.

At this moment, Kajiyamari finally recovered and said, "From what you're saying, Master, it's not just this Uchiha who has a problem, but all Uchiha are problematic."

"If it weren't for the fact that my teacher taught me some strange dialogues before I came to Iwagakure, I wouldn't be able to wrap my head around them for a while."

"By the way, what's the situation with the Konoha High-ranking officials?"

The person who spoke first said, "One of the ninjas monitoring us a kilometer away has already gone towards the Hokage Building. The Hokage should already know about Tekka Uchiha's forced entry into the hotel."

"Yes, we shouldn't act rashly. Provocation is fine, but we shouldn't get involved. With our strength, we can't cause any trouble in Konoha."

"Yes." Everyone responded in unison. These were all good-tempered ninjas selected by Yichen. They wouldn't have done this without being instructed by Kajiyamari.

What Kajiyamari didn't expect was that another Elite Jonin from the Uchiha arrived the next day.

"The Yashiro Uchiha clan?" Kajiyamari asked, puzzled.

"That's right, I am Yashiro Uchiha." Yashiro Uchiha replied.

Kajiyamari asked in confusion, "Where's Tekka Uchiha?"

He wondered to himself, "Could it be that Tekka Uchiha has been captured by the Tekka Uchiha Konoha High-ranking officials? Or is it because the conditions he sent back were too astonishing, arousing suspicion from the Uchiha Clan?"

Kajiyamari's mind raced, and the next moment Yashiro Uchiha gave the reason. "Yesterday it was Tekka who came, so today it's my turn."

Kajiyamari:...

In an instant, my rapidly processing thoughts suddenly came to a standstill.

Next door, the other Iwa ninja who were eavesdropping covered their mouths tightly, almost bursting into laughter.

Then, Yashiro Uchiha and Kajiyamari had a very amicable meeting.

Finally, Kajiyamari stated that Iwagakure was able to send another Kage Level, in addition to the one they had promised Tekka Uchiha yesterday.

Kajiyamari originally proposed Kitsuchi, but due to the insistence of Yashiro Uchiha, Kajiyamari conceded and ultimately replaced it with Ikura.

After Yashiro Uchiha left, the Iwa ninja next door could no longer contain themselves and burst into laughter.

As they entered the reception room with smiles, they asked Kajiyamari, "Lord Tsuchikage, what agreement has been reached with the Uchiha Clan Head this time?"

Kajiyamari rolled his eyes, then couldn't help but burst into laughter. He was the one who had been holding it in the hardest.

On the third day, at Inabi Uchiha's request, Kajiyamari sent another reinforcement, this time named Kitsuchi.

Half a month later, another Elite Jonin Uchiha Clan secretly came to visit Kajiyamari and then secretly left.

The Iwa ninja's support for the Uchiha Clan included all Kage-level experts, two Jinchuriki, all renowned ninja, and an army of 13,000.

Kajiyamari couldn't help but sigh inwardly, wishing she could go back and talk to her junior brother, Sokai, to see if he was the same way.

"But if the entire Uchiha Clan is full of guys like this, what's the point of the teacher supporting the Uchiha Clan?" Kajiyamari thought to herself.

Two updates today, but the word count is the same as the three updates. The second update will be a little late.
