Uchiha Shisui felt helpless, his shoulders slumping powerlessly. He sighed, "I know."

Many sealing techniques from the Land of Whirlpools were secretly collected by Shimura Danzō and Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Root contained the originals.

"The Fourth Hokage was sidelined during his tenure," Jinghuo Uchiha continued.

Uchiha Shisui: "..."

As a renowned figure from the Third Shinobi War, he had naturally followed Minato Namikaze and knew this.

He looked at Jinghuo Uchiha with exhaustion and asked, "What do you want to say?"

As if begging, "Can you stop tormenting me?"

Jinghuo Uchiha looked into Uchiha Shisui's eyes and smiled, "Brother, are those who watch all this happen with apathy guilty or innocent?"

Uchiha Shisui was greatly startled, his eyes widening.

"Shizuka, you..."

Jinghuo Uchiha's words, coupled with his act of killing the Hyuga Great Elder, led Uchiha Shisui to an easy conclusion—he intended to kill all the Konoha clans!

It took him a full ten minutes to process this information.

But he still couldn't believe it, staring at Jinghuo Uchiha with wide eyes. "Are you... are you insane? The Uchiha Clan will be destroyed too!"

"No, trust me," Jinghuo Uchiha smiled.

If he killed them, many of his missions would be completed, and he would become invincible in the Shinobi World.

However, without a valid reason, he didn't want to act.

Not because he was too bloodthirsty or for any other reason, but simply because he didn't want the Uchiha Clan to stand against him.

As he was now, he quite enjoyed his life within the Uchiha Clan.

Thinking this, Jinghuo Uchiha sighed. Sitting cross-legged, he supported himself with his hands behind him, tilting his head back to look at the ceiling, and said with a hint of melancholy, "It's just a pity the Hyuga Clan wasn't cooperative."

The Hyuga Clan was too cowardly.

Their Clan Land had been destroyed twice, and their Great Elder had been killed, yet they still weren't angry!

Uchiha Shisui: "..."

Fortunately, they weren't cooperative, or the Shinobi World would have fallen into chaos.

"But forget it," Jinghuo Uchiha sat up straight and looked at Uchiha Shisui. "Brother, help me investigate clues about the Akatsuki, especially Orochimaru's."

"What do you want to do?" Uchiha Shisui's eyes became very cautious, looking at Jinghuo Uchiha as if he saw an unrestrained demon, feeling deeply uneasy.

"Don't worry, this plan will only kill Sarutobi Hiruzen and those like him."

Jinghuo Uchiha said this, and Uchiha Shisui didn't understand.

"Then why did you go to such lengths to have the Sarutobi Clan serve in the Police Force?"

Wasn't it to use the Shimura Clan's methods to destroy the Sarutobi Clan?

Jinghuo Uchiha understood the implication and laughed. "How could that be? The Shimura Clan was destroyed because they no longer had Shimura Danzō. As long as Sarutobi Hiruzen is alive, the Sarutobi Clan cannot be destroyed. Any further targeting would only increase hatred towards the Uchiha Clan."

"So you never intended to use the Police Force to destroy the Sarutobi Clan from the start?" Uchiha Shisui was even more confused.

"Of course, the Police Force was just to put pressure on them, to torment them by making them paranoid."

Uchiha Shisui: "..."

"Besides that, it's probably to pave the way for a Uchiha to become Hokage in the future," Jinghuo Uchiha said casually.

"A Uchiha becoming Hokage?" Uchiha Shisui instantly became serious.

This was the Uchiha Clan's wish.

Jinghuo Uchiha nodded and said, "Right now, the villagers' filter for Sarutobi Hiruzen is too thick. We need to use the Sarutobi Clan to diminish it."

Uchiha Shisui nodded, understanding and agreeing.

By using the Sarutobi Clan, no matter what Sarutobi Hiruzen did, he would offend someone.

Either his own clan or the villagers.

Whatever he did would be wrong.

If you think this book is good, to avoid losing it next time, please remember to add it to your bookshelf.

Finally, the villagers would realize—the Third Hokage wasn't perfect, he was human too.

This way, the filter of "strongest Hokage of all time" would be broken.

It's just...

"Can you not be so volatile next time?" Uchiha Shisui's skin crawled at the thought of Jinghuo Uchiha's idea of wiping out all the Konoha clans.

Fortunately, the Hyuga Clan was cowardly.

He was too volatile!

"I'm volatile?" Jinghuo Uchiha's expression was strange as he glanced at the system mission.

[Quest Name: You're Moody? You Talk Too Much?] [Quest Content: Kill Uchiha Shisui!] [Quest Reward: Susanoo - Complete Form]

[...]

The Hyuga Clan gave up the Police Force, and Konoha had to let the Sarutobi Clan temporarily take over.

It was said to be temporary, and they would switch once a suitable replacement was found.

But every clan knew that no one would want to take on the Police Force at this time, being targeted by those red-eyed Uchiha.

Didn't you see how scared those nearsighted Hyuga were?

And so, the Sarutobi Clan once again took over the Police Force.

A very small number of villagers strongly opposed;

Some villagers felt it made no difference, as it was better than the Shimura Clan anyway;

Besides these, the vast majority of villagers were cheering loudly.

"The good times for Konoha have finally arrived!"

"The Hyuga Clan is quite sensible!"

"The Sarutobi Clan should be the ones in charge!"

"The Hokage's clan must be better than the Hyuga and Uchiha!"

However, after seven days, their tune changed.

"Why would you smile at the perpetrators!"

"The Sarutobi Clan is too fond of being peacemakers!"

"Damn it, my wife cheated on me because she was threatened, and the Sarutobi Clan told me to make peace with him! Are they asking me to share my wife with him?!"

"Why do I feel like the Sarutobi Clan is a bit like Lord Hokage..."

"I think so too..."

"Don't talk nonsense, the Sarutobi Clan is the Sarutobi Clan, and Lord Hokage is Lord Hokage!"

Although the flames of doubt towards Sarutobi Hiruzen were extinguished, the villagers' dissatisfaction with the Sarutobi Clan grew daily.

The Uchiha Clan's smiles became even brighter.

At this moment, Uchiha Shisui, as the Uchiha Clan Head, was summoned to the Hokage Building for a private meeting.

Hokage Building, Meeting Room.

Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, Hokage Advisor Mitokado Homura, and Hokage Advisor Utatane Koharu looked at Uchiha Shisui with kind smiles.

"Shisui, you're here. Please sit, sit," Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile.

Uchiha Shisui was confused, but he nodded slightly and sat opposite the three.

His gaze mainly fell on Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu.
