In the letter, Orochimaru also stated that the current war situation is fierce and there is not much time to conduct research, but he is very interested in Uchiha Jun's plan and will be free to support it as soon as possible.
In addition, Orochimaru also received a letter from Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Although it was a letter, the master and the apprentice were actually discussing some issues regarding the appointment and removal of positions within Konoha. After all, Shimura Danzō ran away this time. It was a small matter to lose a consultant and elder, but it was a big deal to lose a Root who did the dirty work.
Originally, Sarutobi Hiruzen planned to let Orochimaru serve as the leader of Root, but this time Uchiha Jun came to the fore and pushed Orochimaru to the position of candidate Hokage, and he seemed to be sure to win.
At this critical juncture, if Sarutobi Hiruzen still forces Orochimaru to take the less "glorious" position of leader of Root, then we have to worry about whether Uchiha Jun will give up his job.
Therefore, in the letter, Sarutobi Hiruzen's attitude is also to give it a try. If Orochimaru does not want to take the role, he will appoint someone. At the same time, the current situation of Root is also stated.
Because of Tongue Bane and Sarutobi Hiruzen's intention, Root is now in name only, and they all defected with Shimura Danzō.
Therefore, this new Root leader needs to form his own force.
Orochimaru naturally sneered at this, and immediately thought of Uchiha Jun.
Although the name of the leader of Root is not very glorious, he has a lot of power. He can even ask the chiefs of the major ninja clans in Konoha for secret techniques, and he can also directly plant evils to eradicate such techniques to ensure loyalty.
If there are any dissenters, they can be directly labeled as harmful to Konoha and tortured like crazy.
It belongs to a seat that smells good and smells good.
Orochimaru also wrote this matter in the letter and sent it to Uchiha Jun along with the information.
The next day, Sky Ninja was among Sky Fortress.
Uchiha Jun was sitting cross-legged on the camp bed, holding a letter from Orochimaru in his hand.
His expression was very calm, but there was an extremely subtle light shining in those dark eyes.
"...Root, hehe, Danzo brother, I never thought you would ask me to sit in your seat, Uchiha Clan, right?"
"What's your situation like now?"
"It's so majestic to bring a family and a family, hahahaha!"
Uchiha Jun put down the letter paper and picked up the information scroll next to Orochimaru about Root's organizational structure.
Expand.
The scroll records the organizational structure of Root in detail - although the positions are now vacant, the descriptions of those positions, their scope of authority, and the roles they once played in the power structure of Konoha High Command are all clearly written.
And when Uchiha Jun turned to the first page, it stopped.
It was clearly written on it.
[The leader of Root has the right to secretly arrest and interrogate ninjas "suspected of endangering the safety of Konoha" without the approval of Hokage]
[Scope of powers includes: conducting background checks on all ninja members in Konoha, secretly monitoring "potential threats", and in emergencies, having the right to mobilize secret techniques such as "tongue eradication" to ensure intelligence security]
Uchiha Jun's eyes stayed on this page for a long time.
Okay, okay... This is simply a Shangfang sword. No wonder Shimura Danzō in the original book is so crazy and goes straight to the faces of various ninja clan leaders to demand people.
What we want is not clan members with ordinary qualifications, but talented clan members who are expected to serve as clan leaders and master secret arts!
And once you get it, it's like signing a contract of betrayal, and you will be slapped with a tongue-lashing and will never be treated like a dog!
If this is used properly, Konoha will become Konoha of the Uchiha Clan!
Uchiha Jun continued to scroll down and saw a line of comments attached by Orochimaru at the end of the scroll:
"Cursed Tongue Eradication Jutsu's Cursed Seal has expired, but if you are willing to take over, I can re-develop a similar technique for you - it will be more effective, have smaller side effects, and will not have the side effects of changing the potential of a ninja like Tongue Bane."
Uchiha Jun saw this line of words, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
Orochimaru, although he is still a mad scientist at heart, he is really reliable when it comes to cooperation.
Know what "doing what you like" means.
Putting the scroll away, Uchiha Jun stood up and moved his shoulders.
"Root... It's interesting."
"En Oyashiro, Seimei, this is 100 million taels of activity funds. During this period, you will stay here and be responsible for the repair and strengthening of 'Sky Fortress'. I want to return to the battlefield."
"Yes!"
"Chino, come with me."
"Okay!"
With the speed of a ninja, Uchiha Jun only spent a little time returning to the front line of Kumogakure.
At the same time as Shadow Clone was released, Uchiha Jun called a messenger ninja.
"Go tell the Fugaku clan leader and ask him to come to my tent to discuss important matters."
"Yes!"
After a while, Uchiha Fugaku opened the curtain and walked in, with a trace of doubt on his face.
"Junjun, what happened?"
Uchiha Jun handed Orochimaru's letter to him. "Look at this."
Uchiha Fugaku took the letter, glanced at it quickly, and then his pupils suddenly shrank.
"Root... Leave it to you to take over?"
There was a hint of disbelief in Uchiha Fugaku's voice, "This is--Root!"
Although with the Uchiha Clan's size, Shimura Danzō did not take any action to come to ask for people, but Uchiha Fugaku also learned about the situation of Shimura Danzō and other important people from the ninja clan from other intelligence channels.
I was also shocked and envious.
I am shocked by this power, and I am also envious of this power.
But now, the former leader position of Root is just a matter of words?!
"Yes."
Uchiha Jun nodded and said in a calm tone, "And it's not just a matter of 'taking over' - after Danzo defected, almost all the Root members who were planted to wipe out the disaster disappeared. Now Root is just an empty shell."
"Orochimaru means, let me prop up this empty shell again. Of course, I have the final say on who will support it."
"Clan leader, you have also seen it. Let's go back and ask the clan members to join Root with those little ninja clan Jonin who have surrendered to us. When the time comes, this Konoha will be the Konoha of the Uchiha Clan!"
Uchiha Fugaku was silent for a moment, frowning.
"But... Root was in the hands of Shimura Danzō before, but it didn't do any good. If you take over, will you be targeted as the 'second Danzo'?"
"Oh, I will let them know that Shimura Danzō's previous methods were not fast enough, let alone ruthless enough!"
"Shimura Danzō doesn't have the same military exploits as I do now. Kage Level also has the same effect. I may not be worse than Shimura Danzō!"
Uchiha Jun leaned on the back of the chair, folded his arms, and looked calmly, "Danzo is hated because he doesn't know how to hide it."
"But I won't."
"Aren't we already doing the operations of 'pulling a batch', 'beating a batch', and 'isolating a batch'?"
"How's the effect?"
Uchiha Fugaku listened to these words and didn't speak for a long time.
As Uchiha Jun said, under Compound No. 1's "iron elbow to open the way", those ninjas who used to avoid it are now trying their best to please Uchiha Clan, just to get one more Compound No. 1.
The ninja clan who were once hostile to the Uchiha Clan were now reduced to a state of disgrace in a short period of time and fell into despair rapidly.
Today's Uchiha Clan can be said to be in full swing!
And all of this is due to the leadership of Uchiha Jun. Although he is called the patriarch, he is actually just a 'microphone' for Uchiha Jun's will.
But the patriarchal mentality that has been cultivated has always made Uchiha Fugaku happy. It is better to have Tenten watching Uchiha Clan grow stronger than to have Tenten watch Uchiha Clan jump up and down, which is not pleasing!
Finally, Uchiha Fugaku let out a long sigh, with a wry smile on his lips.
"Junjun... you really made every step just right."
"Then I'll take it as your consent."
Uchiha Jun stood up and said, "In the past few days, please help me count the status of the new Jonin in the clan, as well as the list of elite ninjas who have joined us."
"Before that, I have to make arrangements for Root."
He paused and turned his gaze to Uchiha Fugaku: "In addition - about the 'defected' elder Danzo, you have people spread some news in the village."
"What news?"
