A long time ago, Shōji had already made these two plans for himself and his clan. The first plan was to rely on Sarutobi Hiruzen to delay this dangerous period, and then suppress the radicals internally and try his best to win over Jiraiya and Tsunade came back to serve as Fifth Hokage a few years earlier. As long as Konoha's supreme power is successfully transferred to the next leadership team, Uchiha Clan's crisis will not be completely resolved, but at least it will be greatly alleviated.
Then when the generation of Naruto and Sasuke grow up, Uchiha Clan can truly usher in the best era to escape from the predicament and integrate into Konoha. In the future, there may even be a Hokage born from Uchiha.
This is when everything goes smoothly in Shōji's scheduled plan.
But now the first plan is undoubtedly bankrupt. Although there is still a one in ten thousand chance of recovery - for example, trying to confuse the Konoha political situation in advance based on the current situation, it is undoubtedly as difficult as climbing to the sky, and the probability of success is infinitely close to 0.
Shōji has always been a rational person, and it is most correct to decisively give up the first plan here. Otherwise, if it is delayed for a few more years, even if Shōji has a certain degree of confidence, Uchiha Clan can become more united and stronger.
Try to avoid losing Uchiha Itachi and become the same as Original Work again.
But what if something unexpected happens?
Shōji was unwilling to bet on this possibility when he had completely fallen out, and besides, it was completely unnecessary.
Therefore, launching the second plan is what it should be. The entire process and arrangements were all thought out in Shōji's mind a year ago, including the plan to leave and the final destination. Shōji had a clear idea in his heart.
"Of course, if you choose the latter, I personally prefer Iwagakure. After all, in the past six months, we Uchiha Clan have fought too many battles with Kumo Ninja on the front line. He has killed many Kumo Ninja elites, including Magnet Release ninja-Toroi. Therefore, in comparison, Iwagakure is the best choice."
Shōji paused briefly to allow everyone to better understand the meaning of his words, and then continued.
"And if we want to implement this plan, we must do it quickly. It is best to make all preparations in these two days without giving Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzō and others any time to react!"
As for why Sunagakure and Kirigakure were not mentioned in this plan, these tribesmen also know very well that Sunagakure is too weak. In the three Shinobi World Wars, the one who was defeated first each time would have been the first one to be defeated if it had not been for Taki Ninja, Kusa Ninja, and Ame Ninja have also gradually declined over the years. If these three ninja villages, especially Taki Ninja, can maintain their peak power in the early days of the village's establishment, Sunagakure's and Five Great Shinobi Villages's positions may not be secure.
As for Kirigakure, one is not suitable, and the other is because in Third Shinobi World War, the main battlefield where Uchiha Clan participated in the battle was against Kirigakure in the eastern coastal area. Countless Kiri Ninja were killed. Just like Shōji in Kumogakure, Shisui has a very high deterrent power in Kirigakure.
Shōji and Shisui.
It is to directly raise the hatred value of the two major ninja villages to an extreme level.
After hearing the two options in Shōji's plan, the tribesmen each fell into deep thought. After being gradually persuaded by Shōji's words, these people really began to consider the rationality and executability of the plan to 'break away from Konoha'.
The more I think about it, the more it makes sense.
Judging from the obviously changed atmosphere among the clansmen who were talking in low voices below, Fugaku could already tell that the minds of the clansmen had undergone a qualitative change.
'But this way, it can avoid a head-on collision with the village to the greatest extent. Although there will still be bloodshed, it is within a controllable range. It is indeed the best and last choice! '
Fugaku's eyes flashed slightly. At this moment, the Uchiha Clan patriarch had already made up his mind.
Then turn slightly sideways and look at the Eight Great Elderss on both sides.
Except for one or two elders who were still a little hesitant, the other elders including Genran and Chie all nodded slightly the moment their eyes met Fugaku's.
Since there is no choice.
Then there is only one way to go.
Originally, they thought that the only option for their clan was a coup, but now they see a better way. These elders are also people who have not changed from the past. Continuing the clan and ensuring the safety of more clan members are their top priorities.
Hesitation is the most taboo thing for people, and this is especially true for a high-level person who is in charge of a Ninja Clan with thousands of people. Fugaku in this life does not seem to have changed much from Original Work, but under the influence of Shōji intentionally or unintentionally, he is at least much more decisive. This is the biggest difference between being accompanied and being alone.
The former at least will not lack the courage to make decisions at critical moments.
The latter is very easy to look forward and backward, because there is no one to discuss together, and they are always afraid of this and that. This change of Fugaku also makes the situation of the Uchiha Clan more favorable.
"I understand what you mean, Shōji. This is indeed one of the best choices for our clan, but it is a matter of great importance to the whole clan. It is impossible for just one or two people to make a decision. Of course, this must not be an issue for the whole clan. It is unrealistic to hold a public discussion, and those of us here are the representatives of the entire clan. Now, I would like to ask every clan member here if you agree with Shōji's plan to break away from Konoha, please raise your hands!"
The decision was made.
But the procedures that need to be followed still need to be followed.
Even when the outcome is already determined, this form cannot be discarded.
And it also followed the words of Fugaku.
The clansmen who were still chatting in low voices in the secret room suddenly fell into silence again. As they looked at each other, the time that slowly passed by could be one minute or more than ten minutes.
When someone raises his right hand.
In the next moment.
Almost all the tribesmen present slowly raised their right hands.
Wherever you look.
All the clan members present agreed with Shōji's plan. Again, the continuation of the clan and the safety of their loved ones are always more important than anything else. Even if they are filled with anger in their hearts, they must put the former as the highest priority!
"Well! Now that everyone agrees, let's implement the plan of Shōji. After returning, everyone will inform other tribesmen in accordance with the regulations to a limited extent, and immediately start preparing for evacuation. Be sure to note that you don't need to take away any useless things. You only need to prepare the necessary basic supplies!"
Fugaku stood up, looked at the clansmen below and said in a deep voice.
"Yes! Lord Patriarch!"
