As Yuzuru finished speaking, the secret room fell deathly silent.

Faced with someone who possessed the Mangekyō Sharingan and killed without the slightest hesitation, even the unruly Uchiha were not foolish enough to provoke him.

Seeing everyone's reactions, Yuzuru nodded in satisfaction.

If possible, he did not want to resort to such extreme measures.

But for the plan to proceed smoothly, this was the fastest and most effective method.

After organizing his thoughts, Yuzuru slowly said, "Back then, our Uchiha Clan joined forces with the Senju Clan to establish Konoha."

"But after all these years, our Uchiha Clan has always been excluded from the core circle of power, while the Senju Clan has practically vanished."

"Ever since Tobirama Senju became Hokage, we have constantly been suspected and guarded against."

"After Hiruzen Sarutobi took office, the Uchiha Clan has been trampled under the Anbu's feet, stripped entirely of our former prestige."

"The Military Police Force, independent autonomy... it was all nothing more than a carefully designed trap."

Yuzuru repeated to the crowd what he had told Uchiha Tarou and Uchiha Fugaku that day.

After hearing Yuzuru's analysis, Rika Uchiha and the others all wore looks of sudden realization.

Rage surged within them, and pairs of crimson Sharingan began to radiate terrifying Dojutsu Power.

So Konoha's higher-ups had never considered them one of their own. Worse, they had been constantly plotting how to harm them.

"Those damned bastards! Only now do I see their true colors!"

"Yuzuru, what should we do? Launch a coup immediately?"

"If we strike now, we can definitely catch them off guard!"

Watching the crowd's emotions rise, Yuzuru shook his head. "Our strength is still insufficient to contend with Hiruzen Sarutobi. Launching a coup now will only cause devastating casualties for the Uchiha Clan."

Uchiha Tarou immediately said, "That's still better than sitting here waiting to die! Even if we die, we'll tear a piece of flesh off them!"

"That's right. No one in the Uchiha Clan fears death."

"Yuzuru, now that you possess the Mangekyō Sharingan, assassinating a Hokage shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Looking at those fierce, wolf-like gazes, Yuzuru's heart skipped a beat.

Damn it, I became the conservative one!

Yuzuru could only reveal his plan first. "Don't worry, everyone. I have no intention of sitting here waiting to die. I intend to lead the Uchiha Clan out of Konoha."

"What?!"

Uchiha Tarou, Uchiha Fugaku, Rika Uchiha, and the others all stared wide-eyed in shock.

"Yuzuru, you're joking, right? Even if some of us can leave the village under the Anbu's surveillance, what about the elderly, the children, and most of the ordinary clansmen?"

"We could never abandon our clansmen and flee for our own lives!"

Facing their doubts, Yuzuru said calmly, "You should have noticed just now that my Mangekyō Sharingan can spatially transfer objects."

"I have a way to transfer every clansman out of the Land of Fire at the same time!"

At those words, everyone's eyes filled with disbelief.

There were several thousand Uchiha clansmen in total. No matter how they thought about it, such a thing seemed impossible.

Uchiha Tarou frowned. "Yuzuru, even if you really can do that, the Dojutsu Power it consumes should be terrifying, shouldn't it?"

"According to the clan records, once the Mangekyō Sharingan's Dojutsu Power is exhausted, the user goes blind!"

"Don't worry. I know what I'm doing."

He had the Transfer Scroll bestowed by the system, so naturally he did not need to worry about expending Dojutsu Power.

After saying that, Yuzuru spoke again. "Before the entire clan relocates, pack up all the clan's assets, ninjutsu scrolls, supplies, and everything else in sealing scrolls. Don't leave Hiruzen Sarutobi and his people so much as a needle or thread."

"I'm really looking forward to the wonderful expressions they'll make when they wake up and discover that our entire Uchiha Clan has vanished."

After hearing Yuzuru's words, sinister smiles appeared on Rika Uchiha and the others' faces as well.

Just imagining that scene was amusing enough.

After carefully discussing the next steps of their plan, everyone dispersed.

After returning home, Yuzuru left behind a Shadow Clone while his real body activated Kamui and left Konoha.

"What?!"

"Two Anbu monitoring the Uchiha Clan have gone missing?!"

After hearing Hatake Sakumo's report, Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression turned rather grim. "Sakumo, did you find any clues?"

Hatake Sakumo shook his head. "No. Aside from bloodstains in the room, the culprit left no clues behind."

"..."

A name suddenly surfaced in Hiruzen Sarutobi's mind—

Yuzuru!

When Kushina Uzumaki had been kidnapped that day, he had also passed silently through the village's barrier without anyone noticing.

Could it have been him?

Hiruzen Sarutobi was not certain.

But that did not stop him from identifying Yuzuru as the murderer of the Anbu.

As long as there was even the slightest possibility, he could not let it go.

Thinking of this, Hiruzen Sarutobi said directly, "Sakumo, keep a close eye on Yuzuru. The moment an opportunity arises, kill him immediately."

"Remember, no one can find out."

There was currently no evidence proving that Yuzuru had murdered the Anbu. If his order for Hatake Sakumo to assassinate Yuzuru were exposed, the Uchiha Clan would certainly not let the matter rest.

So this had to be done without a sound.

"I understand."

Hatake Sakumo showed no objection. His figure flashed, and he vanished.

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Yuzuru's file on the desk, then finally picked up a pen and drew a large "X" over his photograph.

He believed that with Hatake Sakumo's strength, as long as Yuzuru dared to be alone, he would be killed at once!

Late at night.

The Land of Fields.

The Daimyo's Mansion.

Having just finished bathing under the care of his maids, the Daimyo of the Land of Fields entered his room alone.

He stretched lazily, and luxurious silk slipped from his short, fat body.

The next moment, his eyes suddenly widened.

"Y-you, who are you?"

"A-an assassin!"

A flash of red light passed, and his voice abruptly cut off.

Yuzuru looked at the Daimyo of the Land of Fields, already under genjutsu control, then turned and left the room.

As one of the few countries without a hidden ninja village, the Land of Fields could not be more suitable as a temporary foothold for the Uchiha Clan.

"By my calculations, it should be about time."

"I've been out long enough. It's time to head back."

After setting the coordinates, Yuzuru's thoughts stirred, and his body twisted with space before vanishing.
