Then there is the issue of new weapons and the installation of Chakra Armor.
It was true that Shōji was in charge before, but at that time, the reason why Ōnoki arranged it that way was more to express an attitude. Although Shōji seemed to have more and more prestige and status in Iwagakure, and was recognized and supported by many people, but in the end After all, Shōji is not a native of Iwagakure, nor is he a genius cultivated by Iwagakure himself. Instead, he comes from Konohagakure, and is a member of the famous Uchiha Clan. He has only been a member of Iwagakure for four years.
In such a situation, if Shōji holds an important position in the village, it will not arouse too many people's opposition. However, Ōnoki wants Shōji to inherit the position of Tsuchikage, and he is in charge at the age of 20!
This will definitely arouse opposition from some of the more stubborn people in the village, so Ōnoki must use various means to further improve and consolidate the prestige of Shōji, so that those stubborn people in the village can really see that Third Tsuchikage is 100% supportive of Shōji!
The most important thing is to let Shōji be responsible for the research and manufacturing of new equipment and new biographical troops!
Now Shōji has successfully ascended to the throne, and has further consolidated his position through another war.
The opposition voices in the village were completely silenced.
Naturally, there is no need to take everything into your own hands. Doing so will only make you appear narrow-minded, and secondly, it will only waste your time!
Leaving it to someone you trust is the best choice.
Moreover, you need to learn the art of balance here. Just because you are from the Uchiha Clan, you cannot frequently leave some important positions and important tasks to your own tribe to handle and be responsible for!
That is a very stupid approach!
Kitsuchi is the only direct son of Ōnoki.
Shōji should have been the most trustworthy person. Even though Shōji has just taken over, he is still considering that if Deidara and Kurotsuchi are good enough in the future, they will be given priority as his successors!
This is not only a way of repaying Ōnoki for trusting his family and choosing him as Lord Fourth Tsuchikage, but also a balanced approach to consider the future of his family.
As I said a long time ago, the reason why Uchiha Clan in Original Work fell into the tragic situation of being exterminated is that one of the reasons is that the senior officials led by Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzō absolutely distrust, force and oppress them, and the other reason is that they Uchiha Clan are arrogant and not good to others!
As long as Uchiha Clan can get along better with other Ninja Clan in Konohagakure, even if Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzō no longer trust Uchiha Clan and want to suppress Uchiha Clan, Uchiha will not fall into that situation.
This is what the saying goes: those who have gained the right will get many help, while those who have lost the right will have few.
In this life, under the leadership of Shōji, and after experiencing all the previous storms, Uchiha Clan has indeed changed a lot compared to the past, and the spiritual outlook of the tribe has also changed a lot compared to before.
But now as his clan's status in Iwagakure is getting higher and higher, he has become the shadow of a village. Shōji is a little worried about the recurrence of solid state of some people in the clan, so he must make some preparations in advance!
They have all given Uchiha Clan a new lease of life.
Shōji doesn't want them Uchiha Clan to go down the same old path one day in the future!
That is the stupidest and most miserable thing. Don't think Shōji is making a fuss out of a molehill. It should be said that this is a reasonable plan for a rainy day!!
Kitsuchi may not be able to understand the deep meaning of Shōji.
Only Ōnoki, an old man, can notice it to some extent, but Ōnoki, who already calls himself a retired old man, will not say anything more in this regard, not even his own son. The most he can do is to mention Deidara and Kurotsuchi at a certain point in the future.
From the perspective of Ōnoki, Shōji also fully agrees with this approach. The shadow of a village should jump out of the limitations of a certain identity and look at the problem from a global perspective. This is the capacity and overall thinking that a shadow should have!
Later, after some very delicate arrangements and discussions, Kitsuchi also took the order and left directly, whether it was docking with Snow Country or promoting the production and manufacturing of new weapons and Chakra Armor!
That workload is huge!
Kitsuchi must also go and make arrangements immediately, and the sooner the corresponding work is completed, the faster the next step of their village can be launched.
Although Shōji has explained that there is no need to be too anxious, but in Kitsuchi's opinion, it is best to be ready as soon as possible for this kind of thing!
In this way, they can advance and retreat freely and become invincible.
Wait until Kitsuchi takes the order and leaves.
Shisui was also ordered by Shōji to return to their Uchiha Clan station in advance to make final preparations for Wood Release cells's transplant experiment.
Shōji also turned to look at Ōnoki and said solemnly, "Lord Third, Uchiha Obito is taking action again, and this time, he should be planning to join forces with other Three Great Shinobi Villages!"
"Oh? Obito? And other Three Great Shinobi Villages? Are you sure? Fourth!"
Ōnoki, who originally had a calm and relaxed look on his face, subconsciously tensed up when he heard Shōji's words. His straightened body looked back at Shōji, and a serious look appeared in the depths of his pupils!
Not to mention, just based on Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's Attack's performance, Uchiha Obito is the one who has fallen in love with Ōnoki and must be completely vigilant. Not to mention that more than a year ago, this guy actually sneaked into Konohagakure alone again after more than half of his own information was exposed!
After a big battle with Konoha Ninja led by Sarutobi Hiruzen, he could leave easily. This power is enough to make Ōnoki afraid, not to mention that this guy can Wood Release, even Ōnoki can clearly judge that the two powers of Obito are far inferior to the two people Uchiha Madara and Hashirama Senju!
But after all, this is the power possessed by the two strongest people in the millennium of history since the birth of ninjas. No matter how much defense and vigilance is given to Obito, it cannot be overstated, not to mention that they can also use space magic. A general siege is of no use to Obito!
Such an enemy who obviously hates his own Uchiha Clan, that is, their Iwagakure enemy, Ōnoki must pay attention to it!
"Well, I learned this information from the controlling Fourth Raikage, and in order to gain Fourth Raikage's trust, this guy directly told Fourth Raikage almost all of our Uchiha Clan's information and even all the secrets of Mangekyō Sharingan!"
"What? He even revealed the secret of Mangekyō Sharingan!? Isn't he worried that others will catch him!?"
Ōnoki widened his eyes, with an incredulous expression, and raised his voice. This seemed to Ōnoki to be an unreasonable thing!
This is simply harming others and not benefiting oneself!?
You may even be harming yourself!
Are you Obito not from the Uchiha Clan? Aren't your eyes Mangekyō Sharingan!?
Even if all the plans go as Obito wishes, in the end, aren't you Obito worried that others will use this to deal with you??
I really feel that the space technique is invincible in the world!? I feel like I still have the power of Wood Release to be fearless!? Or maybe this guy Obito has other trump cards!?
at this moment.
Ōnoki Many thoughts flashed through the depths of his brain, but there was still a very incomprehensible expression on his face.
"Right? You just said it was Mimura? Not just Kumogakure!? Is there also Konoha!?"
"Yes, Lord Third, this guy really did this. Although there is no definite evidence, we can learn from Fourth Raikage's memory that Obito does have the intention to cooperate with Kumogakure, Sunagakure, and even Konoha!"
Shōji nodded and said.
Kirigakure I won't mention it there.
He had just controlled Fourth Mizukage for so many years, killed countless outstanding Kiri Ninja, and also led to the two major Kirigakure, Kaguya Clan and Yuki Clan. It can even be said that the wealthy Shinobi World was directly destroyed!
Let Kirigakure's vitality be severely damaged.
Even if Obito is interested in cooperating with Kirigakure, it will only happen if Terumi Mei and Genji are willing to agree. From a general perspective, this is a completely impossible thing.
But Konoha is different here.
Although Obito and Konoha seem to be incompatible with each other, don't forget that there is still an old silver coin like Shimura Danzō in Konohagakure. There is no question of whether this guy can cooperate!
Some just want to see whether this cooperation can bring benefits to themselves!
It is profitable, even if it is a deal with the devil, Danzo will not have any hesitation. The previous contact between Orochimaru and Danzo was under the instruction of Obito. Obito wants to deal with Shōji, and Konoha is a good chess piece!
Danzo Can you see this?
Obviously yes, but Danzo also feels that this is a very good opportunity. Moreover, Danzo can be said to be the most arrogant person in the world. Up to now, he still firmly believes that as long as he can successfully come to power and serve as Konohagakure, Hokage can really lead Konohagakure to sweep the entire Shinobi World!
How difficult it is to never look at the objective problems that exist.
I always feel that my own subjective consciousness can solve all problems. The so-called seeking skin from a tiger is not true with Danzo, because he is so 'confident'!
As Shōji who is very familiar with Danzo, he also understands this.
After being asked by Ōnoki, Shōji naturally nodded Responded without hesitation.
"Lord Third, don't forget that Shimura Danzō in Konohagakure is an existence beyond the 'super standard'. Even if there is Third Hokage above, as long as it is something Shimura Danzō believes in, no one can stop him!"
"This is indeed true. This Shadow of Konoha can be regarded as Konoha's biggest problem. It can only be said that Third Hokage brought it upon himself."
Ōnoki also nodded in agreement at this moment, with a hint of sarcasm and disdain clearly showing on his face.
After all, in those past days.
In addition to the information detected in their Iwagakure initial intelligence system, Shōji also told Ōnoki many secrets inside Konohagakure, such as Orochimaru and Some of Danzo's experiments, such as Naruto's identity and current encounters with Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, as well as the fact that Danzo sent his subordinates to assassinate Third Hokage.
The unfolding of this series was an eye-opener for Ōnoki, but he really didn't expect that Konoha, one of the dignified Five Great Shinobi Villages, would be so bad.
Especially that one Third Hokage, Ōnoki's evaluation of him is getting lower and lower!
Now that's completely negative!
Some things simply cannot be done by humans, right? Not to mention too much, just for the matters of Danzo and Naruto, Ōnoki thought that if he had dealt with it himself, it wouldn't have been so bad!
Especially Danzo, even if he misses his old relationship and will not really kill Danzo, it is impossible to let Danzo move freely and order a large number of elite ninjas. Isn't that nonsense!?
Ōnoki really seriously doubts that Third Hokage really has Alzheimer's disease, otherwise he wasn't so bad when he was young? It should even be said that they are the best of their generation.
Otherwise, the entire Shinobi World would not have been dubbed 'Shinobi Hero'.
"It is indeed the case, so in this regard, we need to be more vigilant. In addition, after multiple investigations, it has been confirmed that there is a certain degree of connection between Akatsuki and Obito. The specific extent is still unknown, but this is enough to make us vigilant. Lord Third,, Akatsuki can be traced back to an organization in Rain Country. I am determined to strengthen the investigation of this aspect if there is any connection between the two! If it is confirmed, we also need to make a certain degree of preparation in advance. After all, this organization is different from ordinary terrorist organizations, and its power may exceed our imagination!"
Shōji nodded, and then continued.
"Well, if that's the case, then you really need to be on guard. Fourth, just do it according to your own judgment. Everything in the village has been handed over to you. I trust you 100%. If you need my old bones to help, you can always bring it up. Even though I am old, I can still compete with those young people!"
Ōnoki smiled lightly and responded Responded.
"Yes, Lord Third!"
Shōji also nodded and said with a smile.
The legitimate Lord Fourth Tsuchikage and Ōnoki are also the ones who completely delegate power. They will not interfere in many matters in the village after abdicating. Shōji can smoothly control all the forces in the village. With the high cooperation of Ōnoki and the blessing of Shōji's own prestige, there will be no objection from anyone in the village.
The reason why Shōji still wants to communicate with Ōnoki on some major matters is to show his respect for the ancestor Tsuchikage. Secondly, he also wants to let this experienced Tsuchikage help him to control the situation. Although Shōji always looks very confident.
But that is strategic contempt for the opponent. Tactically, whether it is Three Great Shinobi Villages, Obito, Nagato, and Uchiha Madara, Shōji, they all give the highest degree of attention and vigilance. He hopes that he will not allow himself to make mistakes in any detail.
That is not only irresponsible to yourself, but also irresponsible to your family, friends, and even the entire Ninja Village!
Now he is not only concerned about his own life and death!
Therefore, even before making an important decision, Shōji always has to find someone close to him to check for any gaps. Ōnoki is naturally the first choice. He has this experience and qualifications!
He is one of his most trusted and reliable candidates.
And it was also after the most important matter was agreed with Ōnoki.
This Third Tsuchikage also floated away from Tsuchikage Office and returned to the mansion where he lived. After resigning from the position of Tsuchikage, Ōnoki is not like the previous Like Sarutobi Hiruzen, he also serves as a Tsuchikage consultant and stays in Tsuchikage Office at all times. Unless there is a big event or Shōji calls him, Ōnoki usually stays at home.
Do something you want to do.
For example, I personally coach my granddaughter——Kurotsuchi.
Shōji is also very happy to see the life attitude of his Third Tsuchikage after retiring from office, and is very grateful. He knows very well how troublesome it will be if the leader of a country or a village still has an 'overlord' on his head.
And it was also after Ōnoki left.
Shōji also immediately issued several orders, all of which were related to the subsequent strategic layout of dealing with Three Great Shinobi Villages.
If nothing unexpected happens, it will take at most one year for them Iwagakure to completely start a war that sweeps the entire Shinobi World. Regardless of whether they can get Rinnegan, it will not change this!
Naturally, preparations in all aspects need to be made.
"Kabuto!"
Then his own secretary was called immediately.
"Yes, Lord Fourth!"
Under the summons of Shōji, Yakushi Kabuto also dodged and appeared directly beside Shōji. The reason before was because the matter to be discussed involved the highest authority in the village. It is confidential, so in the same office of Nuo Da, except for the four people Shōji, Shisui, Ōnoki, and Kitsuchi, there is no one else!
Killer B and Yugito were kept out of the office as bodyguards.
The same goes for Yakushi Kabuto.
Even though this is the person he trusts most and he is allowed to participate in the most important Wood Release cells experiment, his status is here after all!
If you want to participate in these things, Yakushi Kabuto still needs a few more years of experience!
"Go, according to my order, notify each department to arrange all the corresponding work, and pay more attention to confidentiality in the deployment of personnel. Non-essential candidates will not be allowed to know. You should understand what I mean, Kabuto!"
Shōji looked at Yakushi Kabuto in front of him with sharp eyes and said in a low tone.
"Yes, Lord Fourth, I understand, then I apply to ask your direct subordinate Anbu to cooperate with me in carrying out the task. In addition, if possible, I also hope that you can ask Uchiha Jōnin who owns Three-Tomoe Sharingan to come and assist!"
Yakushi Kabuto had a solemn look on his face and made his request without any hesitation.
"Yes, I agree! I will ask Miki to form a team to cooperate with you, and I will also arrange in advance one of Inaho or Yashiro to assist you! You can't let me down, Kabuto!"
"I will obey my orders and everything will go as you wish, Lord Fourth! Please rest assured!"
Yakushi Kabuto immediately knelt down on one knee, with a solemn look on his face, bowed his head and answered Responded.
"Well, I don't worry about you doing the work, go ahead!"
Looking at Yakushi Kabuto with a serious expression in front of him, Shōji also showed a gentle look, nodded slightly, and then waved his hand.
"Yes!"
Yakushi Kabuto also left this office in a flash and went to carry out Shōji's order.
After Yakushi Kabuto left.
Shōji also re-entered the normal working mode. You must know that it has been quite a long time since he left Ninja Village this time. Counting Five Kage Summit behind him, more than ten days have passed. During this period of time, even if Ōnoki is in charge of the village, all departments can still operate normally, but after all, there are still some government affairs piled up.
Some of the most important government affairs here require Shōji, Tsuchikage, to personally review and issue them before they can take effect and be implemented!
Shōji also worked on it until late at night. After finishing the most important dozen or so government affairs, he could breathe a little easier and go back home to rest.
It is foreseeable that in the next few days, Shōji will need to spend a lot of time dealing with government affairs.
But this is also the responsibility that one must bear as the Shadow of a Village!
You can't just enjoy the power and glory that this position brings, but not fulfill any responsibilities and obligations!
That is disqualifying behavior!
Fugaku, Sōgen, Shisui and others in the clan naturally understand this and cannot come to urge Shōji. Anyway, the Wood Release cells implantation experiment still needs the final step of preparations. It does not mean that it can be done in one step!
It's not in a hurry.
Instead, it was the information about Obito brought back by Shisui.
Fugaku, Sōgen and others became uncontrollably furious again!
Just like Shōji and Shisui before, Fugaku, Sōgen and others really did not expect that Obito would be so crazy and crazy. No matter what, he himself belongs to the Uchiha Clan!?
Mangekyō Sharingan is also his most important strength!?
Just like that, the information was leaked to the outside world.
Fugaku and Sōgen are really difficult to understand. Of course, Shisui did not say that Fourth Raikage was controlled. He only said that he learned from other channels. Fugaku, Sōgen and others were not surprised or had the slightest suspicion.
After all, things only need to be done by someone.
It will definitely leave corresponding traces. Isn't it normal for it to be detected?
