Uchiha Fugaku As if struck by lightning, his whole body froze in place and his pupils shrank violently.
The pair of eyes with unique lines in front of him, and the vastness of chakra that frightened him, were - Mangekyō Sharingan!
"This... this is..." Fugaku's voice changed slightly.
"My eyes have seen the future of the Uchiha Clan."
Uchiha Jun's voice was undeniably penetrating, "In that future, if we continue to tolerate those 'companions' who share different dreams, Uchiha Clan will only go into a deeper abyss."
Fugaku's face turned blue and white, and his chest heaved violently.
He stared at the pair of Mangekyo, in disbelief and unable to refute.
What does the birth of Mangekyō Sharingan mean?
It means stepping into the threshold of the top powerhouse, it means seeing through illusions and mastering the peak power of Genjutsu and Eye Technique!
But the young man in front of him, the younger member of his clan, has actually come this far!
"What do you want to do?" Fugaku finally managed to suppress the turmoil in his heart, his voice dry.
"It's very simple." Uchiha Jun took back Mangekyo and returned to Three-Tomoe Sharingan. His tone returned to calmness, but with absolute confidence.
"Orochimaru will kill the hardcore of the Uchiha Setsuna faction, and I will use Genjutsu to control several key Jonin of the Setsuna faction, causing them to die 'accidentally' on the battlefield. Mangekyo's Genjutsu, they can't break free."
Uchiha Jun paused and added, "Then, I will personally go into battle and take their place. Fugaku Patriarch, how many Jonins can one Kage Level strong man stand up to on the battlefield?"
"I can suppress an entire front by myself, or even push back!"
"The military exploits I bring are enough to fill their vacancies, and there can be more! The glory of the Uchiha Clan will be revealed by me alone!"
Kage Level... A Kage Level strong man!
These words hit Fugaku like a heavy hammer in his heart.
He is a pragmatic person and a patriarch.
Uchiha Jun's words are cruel, but logically... not impossible.
A strong Kage Level who can single-handedly withstand key fronts and harvest massive military exploits, his contribution to the family is indeed far greater than that of a group of Jonin who have their own agendas.
Moreover, the opponent has already used trump cards such as Mangekyo, showing sufficient strength and determination.
If the patriarch of the clan objects to him... hehe, what can Three-Tomoe Sharingan's Elite Jonin do?
Uchiha Fugaku's eyes lingered on Uchiha Jun's face, trying to find any flaws or lies, but he only saw calm determination and absolute confidence.
After a long time, he slowly sat back on the chair, as if he had aged several years in an instant.
"Gamble..."
Fugaku murmured in a low voice, then raised his head, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.
"Okay, next, as the clan leader, I will dispatch Jonin from the Uchiha Setsuna faction to you. I will give you the list later."
"Danchun, please remember, if you fail, if Uchiha Clan suffers a disaster..."
"If I fail, I will sacrifice myself and shed my last drop of blood for the Uchiha Clan."
'Go ahead and dream, the only ones who can really make me fail are the hiding Uchiha Clan Lao Deng and some alien Ōtsutsuki Clan.'
"Lao Deng is nothing to worry about, but if that Ōtsutsuki Isshiki really comes out early because of my butterfly effect, he can crush Complete Body Susanoo's Taijutsu with his flying kick."
"I can no longer play 'Shinobi World' with you. When the time comes, don't blame me for instantly refining Uchiha Clan and transforming into the Chosen Bridge-Blocking Holy Body.'
Uchiha Jun stood up and said in a solemn tone, "Fugaku Patriarch, believe me."
Fugaku looked at him deeply, and finally nodded tiredly.
Uchiha Jun said nothing more and turned to leave.
The door of the secret room closed behind him, blocking out Fugaku's extremely complicated gaze.
When we walked out of the mansion, the morning light was just right, but it couldn't shine into some dark corners.
Uchiha Jun The corner of his mouth raised a slight arc.
Fugaku will agree. He is too eager to lead Uchiha Clan out of the predicament. As long as there is a slight chance, he will seize it.
And I gave him a bargaining chip that he couldn't refuse.
Leaving the tribe with brisk steps, Uchiha Jun's mind moved slightly and contacted Shadow Clone who was lurking outside.
A vague azimuth information came in - Explosion Release Unit, which gave me some clues.
Meanwhile, Hokage Building.
After Sarutobi Hiruzen sent Uchiha Jun away, the warm smile on his face gradually faded, replaced by deeper fatigue and thinking.
Uchiha Jun... A Uchiha Clan who can withstand pressure, show the potential to unlock Mangekyo, and clearly declares his loyalty to Konoha, is a rare ninja.
Perhaps, it would be a good choice to use him to balance the forces within the Uchiha Clan, or even... pave the way for certain arrangements in the future.
Just as he was thinking about it, the door of the office was pushed open silently, and a Anbu Ninja knelt down on one knee, speaking urgently, "Lord Hokage! Land of Earth, frontline, urgent information!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart skipped a beat, he took the sealed scroll and browsed it quickly.
At first, his expression was solemn, but as he read more deeply, his old eyes suddenly widened, and the scroll in his hand was almost crumpled!
"Wood Release... Capture Third Raikage alive... Control Perfect Jinchuriki..."
He muttered the key words in the intelligence, his voice trembling, "This is... what the hell is Danzo?!"
The information is extremely detailed.
[A ninja who uses Wind Release·vacuum series ninjutsu and can even channel Baku, wearing Root style clothing, between Iwagakure and Kumogakure appeared in the fighting area, and in front of Ōnoki and other Iwagakure senior officials, used the technique of Wood Release·Insertion to suppress Perfect Jinchuriki Tailed Beast Transformation of Roshi even captured Third Raikage A alive in some incredible way! Then he disappeared out of thin air, suspected to be some kind of invisibility or teleportation secret technique]
"Impossible!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up suddenly, and the chair slid back a lot.
'How could Danzo master such a level of Wood Release! His research progress is far from producing this kind of combat power! He just made a Wood Release child a few days ago, and now he can suddenly suppress Four-Tails Jinchuriki and capture Raikage?'
But he immediately thought of the "Daimyo Palace incident".
That time, the "intruder" pretending to be Danzo used Danzo's signature ninjutsu, and may even have imitated his chakra characteristics to some extent, to deceive Daimyo Palace's guards.
And this time...
"Psychic Baku... this is Summoning Animal exclusive to Danzo! How did this imposter do it?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen walked quickly to the desk and pressed his fingers heavily on the table, "If not myself, who can summon and drive Baku? Or..."
A ridiculous but terrifying thought came to mind.
Could it be that Danzo really went behind his back and achieved some kind of great Great Breakthrough?
And then deliberately "appeared" in this way to force him to face up to and even compete for Hokage Position?
"No, that's not right..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen forced himself to calm down. He knew Danzo's character very well.
If he really had this kind of power, he would have taken Root directly to the front line and accumulated military merits in an upright manner. Why would he use this almost provocative method to make Konoha passive?
Konoha is really defeated, and he Shimura Danzō is the polished commander?
Or should I follow Kirigakure and go to the sea to play Boom Beach?
"Check again! Is the information absolutely true? Is it Shimura Danzō himself who captured Raikage alive?" Sarutobi Hiruzen said sharply to Anbu.
"The intelligence sources of Lord Hokage, Iwagakure and Kumogakure have all confirmed that the other party used Baku. This is the unique information of Root."
Anbu sounded affirmative, but also hesitant, "Furthermore, according to the analysis of the battle remnants, the Wood Release used by the opponent has extremely pure properties and shape control, and is definitely not a beginner..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen slumped back into the chair.
Pure...
Then there is only one possibility left - there is a "Super Danzo" who has mastered most of Danzo's ninjutsu, can even summon Summoning Animal, and has mastered far beyond his own Wood Release level!
And this person also made such big moves as Daimyo Palace was attacked and Raikage was captured alive from the front line!
"Let Danzo come to see me! Immediately!" Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice deepened, but it was filled with suppressed anger and anxiety.
'Damn it, Danzo, where did you provoke such a terrifying ninja?'
Root Base, training ground.
Shimura Danzō was watching a group of newcomers undergoing anti-Genjutsu training, but in his mind he was thinking about how to deal with the Daimyo Palace incident, and was forced into the three "advisors" of Konoha High Command by the daimyo.
--That is clearly an eyeliner and a means to seize power.
"Danzo-sama."
A member of Anbu appeared behind him silently, "Lord Hokage has sent you to go to Hokage Building immediately."
Shimura Danzō frowned, feeling even more angry.
He was still grounded, summoned for three generations, and mostly questioned or beaten.
But he didn't dare not go.
"Got it."
He waved away the Anbu members and was about to turn around when another Root member in charge of intelligence stepped forward quickly and handed over a top secret intelligence scroll that had just been intercepted. He said in a complicated tone, "Sir, something big happened on the Land of Earth front line..."
Shimura Danzō took it, unfolded it, and scanned it with his eyes.
The next moment, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave and froze in place.
The art of Wood Release·Insertion, control Four-Tails Jinchuriki... channel Baku... capture Third Raikage alive...--Shimura Danzō.
"..."
Shimura Danzō slowly raised his head, with no blood on his face.
What the hell? Wood Release?!
When did I become so awesome?
And capture Third Raikage alive?
Damn it, although Wind Release Ninjutsu can restrain Lightning Release Ninjutsu, Third Raikage is not a squishy guy playing ninjutsu, but a ferocious humanoid beast wearing Lightning Release Armor, screaming and rushing towards you to elbow you!
As for Baku... Damn it, Summoning Scroll is okay?!
Where the hell did this Baku come from?
Damn Baku had an illegitimate child behind his back?!
"Who is this?! Who is it?!"
Shimura Danzō's fingers dug deeply into his palm, and blood seeped out, but he didn't feel it at all.
He thought about the time Daimyo Palace, thinking that Uchiha Clan used Sharingan to copy some of his Wind Release.
But this time... the combat power of Wood Release, Baku, and Raikage's ability to capture alive... this is simply not what the copy of the Uchiha Clan can do!
This is a complete, transcendent replacement!
The anger and fear of being completely plagiarized and being used by others in his own identity made him tremble all over.
But he had to go to Hokage Building.
Hokage Office.
The atmosphere was so depressing that it felt like water could be squeezed out.
Shimura Danzō stood in the center, his bandaged right arm trembling slightly. He tried his best to control the expression on his face, but it was still gloomy and distorted.
Sarutobi Hiruzen did not offer a seat as usual, but asked directly, "Danzo, Land of Earth, how do you explain the matter on the front line?"
"It's not me!" Shimura Danzō almost squeezed out this sentence from between his teeth, "Sarutobi Clan, you should know better than anyone else! If I have that kind of Wood Release, why should I stay here and suffer from your anger? I have led Root to the front line and accumulated enough military exploits. Can you sit firmly in this Hokage position?"
The resentment and ambition in Shimura Danzō's words are undisguised.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyelids twitched and he didn't answer the question.
"Wood Release is as pure as First. It can summon and drive Baku, and it can also capture Third Raikage alive..." Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice sank, "Danzo, are you sure that your research information, your Summoning Contract, has not been leaked in any way?"
"Impossible!" Shimura Danzō flatly denied, "I personally keep Baku's contract scroll, and Root's core research data is also sealed layer by layer! Unless..."
He paused, and his eyes suddenly became suspicious, "Unless someone can get in touch with my soul level and forcefully read it..."
He thought of Mangekyō Sharingan in the information about the Uchiha Clan left by teacher Tobirama Senju.
Ordinary Three-Tomoe Sharingan naturally cannot do such shocking things.
But what if it's Mangekyo?
It is clearly recorded in the data that after opening the eyes of the Uchiha Clan and Mangekyo, they will awaken the eye skills with different abilities!
But... even Mangekyo may not be able to steal and replace it to this extent, right?
