Uchiha Jin's Helplessness, Internal and External Troubles!

Uchiha Jin was quite curious.

He had almost never walked around the village. Only when he had attended the Ninja Academy had he occasionally passed through its streets, and even then, he rarely entered any shops.

After graduating, he had gone straight to the front lines.

Later, after his teammates died in battle and the village ordered him back, he had remained within the Uchiha Compound.

This—he had no choice.

The Uchiha were hated too much. He could not stand those looks in people's eyes.

Only Obito before he blackened, that fool, probably would not have cared about such things.

Though he occasionally went to the Hokage Building now, he truly had not paid much attention to the changing situation on the streets.

So.

Learning that the absence of the Konoha Military Police Force had thrown all of Konoha into chaos genuinely made him curious.

"Elder Jin, I know about that."

"The reason was that everyone had been busy these past few days. After all, moving an entire household into our Radical Faction meant packing up not only valuables, but even tables, chairs, benches, beds, and the like could not be left behind."

"So, it was troublesome!"

"Therefore, in order to get it done as quickly as possible, everyone could only request leave with excuses like feeling unwell or having matters at home. The Konoha Military Police Force was already stretched thin at the time."

"I only chose to join the Radical Faction later because I could no longer bear my family nagging me, so I knew quite a lot about the changes in the Konoha Military Police Force."

"The streets are now completely chaotic. Because the Konoha Military Police Force is absent, all kinds of thugs have crawled out, and thefts and robberies have become frequent."

"Especially since those bastards know the Konoha Military Police Force has not been working lately, they have become far more ruthless than before."

"On top of that, disputes between merchants and neighbors no longer have the Konoha Military Police Force to mediate them, so Konoha's level of chaos has skyrocketed."

"Some scum from the Major ninja clans have also taken the opportunity to coerce and tempt people, and cases of them swallowing up commoners' assets have increased considerably."

"So the streets right now can be summed up in one word—chaos!"

"By the way, Elder Jin!"

"My name is Uchiha Takashi. I was previously a member of the Moderate Faction."

"Although I have not been in the Radical Faction for long, I greatly approve of your leadership. I am very comfortable in the Radical Faction now."

"Not only do we no longer need to worry every day about Root and Danzo assassinating us, but our families can sleep peacefully each night. Under your command, we have also repeatedly taken benefits from Konoha."

"Compared to Fugaku, that unreliable Clan Head, your actions have truly let me see hope."

"So from this day forward, I am willing to offer you my loyalty!"

Uchiha Takashi spoke solemnly.

As he spoke, everyone present also began speaking up, all willing to offer their loyalty to Uchiha Jin.

And in response.

Uchiha Jin's eyes crinkled with amusement. He would have been lying if he said he was not happy.

His judgment had indeed been correct!

If he had truly tried to persuade these people back then, he would never have been able to unite the Uchiha. After all, under the Konoha Higher-ups' deliberate meddling, the factional conflict within the Uchiha had been far too sharp.

But now?

They had merely seen some blood, and after only a few Uchiha had died, they had been thoroughly awakened.

Of course.

He also had two people to thank!

First was Danzo. Without his assassination attempts, these people would have found it difficult to turn to him.

Second was Fugaku!

If that idiot had not carried out his "non-resistance" and "non-defense" policies, the Uchiha of the Moderate Faction and Middle Faction would not have completely despaired of Fugaku and ultimately joined his side.

"Everyone..."

"By rights, I should say a few humble words. But the Uchiha now face troubles both within and without. We must unite as one, so I will shamelessly accept your loyalty."

"However, I must still tell you that the Uchiha's situation remains dire."

"Externally, we face the Hokage Higher-ups' targeting, especially that old dog Danzo. Internally, Clan Head Fugaku and Shisui are dragging us down. Therefore, we must continue acting with caution."

Uchiha Jin's tone was grave.

Yes.

Though his actions had produced fairly good results for now, and he had always managed to tear a piece of flesh from Sarutobi Hiruzen's mouth.

Still.

The Uchiha's situation remained dangerous. Sarutobi Hiruzen was a ruthless man. Since he had suffered such a heavy loss this time, that Old Thing would definitely retaliate in the future.

Fugaku and Shisui were even more troublesome!

This was, after all, a world where strength reigned supreme. Both of them possessed the Mangekyō Sharingan, and there was also that ungrateful Itachi at their side, with that bastard Obito lurking in the shadows.

Calling it internal and external troubles was actually putting it mildly!

So.

Uchiha Jin was truly rather troubled at this moment.

Although he had already awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, it was not the Eternal Mangekyo without side effects. Though his Mangekyō Sharingan could slowly restore its Dojutsu Power, it still could not sustain prolonged large-scale combat.

Therefore, he truly was treading on thin ice.

Though his actions appeared radical, he was actually extremely cautious inside. He did not dare force all his enemies into a corner.

Otherwise...

Shisui would most likely use Kotoamatsukami on him!

Fugaku was currently hiding his Mangekyō Sharingan because he did not want the village to be too wary of him. If Jin's side went too far, that Old Thing would most likely stop hiding it as well.

As for—Itachi!

Uchiha Jin was not too worried about him for now. As long as Shisui did not die, Itachi would be unable to awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan anytime soon.

By the time he awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, it would mean Shisui's threat had disappeared!

The same went for Obito!

At this stage, that guy did not want to expose himself. Unless Konoha chose to act directly, or the Uchiha Clan fell into internal conflict, he would only secretly fan the flames and interfere.

So.

For now, he could not push his enemies too hard. Everything still had to be carefully planned, step by step!

As for his parents, who had been captured by Root, Uchiha Jin was honestly the least worried about them. They were Danzo's trump card against him, and Danzo would not be willing to use them up like disposable tools.

It was not yet time to completely fall out with Root. Though his heart felt as though it were being cut by knives, reason still told him he had to remain calm.

Thinking of this made him furious!

Other transmigrators got a system as soon as they arrived. At worst, they were given some kind of Golden Finger.

What about him?

He did have a Seven-Story Pagoda pendant that had crossed over with him, but over the years, he had tried every method he could think of—dripping blood on it, nourishing it with Chakra, and so on—yet it had not changed in the slightest.

Fuck.

Surely it would not wait until he killed the Konoha Higher-ups and unified the ninja world before finally revealing its power?

If he had a system helping him, he would have directly gone to war with the Konoha Higher-ups long ago. He would not have needed to keep planning so cautiously.

"Right, Jin!"

"There is something I have never been able to understand. Why did Sarutobi Hiruzen back down?"

"Couldn't the Anbu temporarily replace the Konoha Military Police Force?"

"Konoha has so many shinobi and so many Shinobi Clans. He could casually pull together a team and calm the chaotic village, couldn't he?"

"Why was he willing to pay such a huge price, yet still unwilling to let the Anbu act? Or perhaps organize another group to temporarily take over the Konoha Military Police Force?"
