Hearing Senju Chen ask this, Fugaku's expression became serious.
"Chen-kun, according to your previous plan, Konoha Military Police Force has been attacking bandits and chasing fugitives all over Land of Fire over the years. Now our Konoha Military Police Force law enforcement scope has covered the entire Land of Fire, and we have our Konoha Military Police Force stations in towns and villages of all sizes."
"But..." Fugaku paused, "Now Konoha Military Police Force's personnel are close to the limit. In the entire Uchiha Clan, all the tribesmen who can be sent out to perform tasks have basically been sent out. Now it is basically the limit of our Uchiha Clan. If you follow your plan back then, Konoha Military Police Force wants to expand..."
"We need to recruit people." Senju Chen took over.
"Yes." Fugaku nodded, "But, Chen-kun..." Fugaku was silent for a few seconds and then spoke slowly.
"Chen-kun, you told me before that the future of Konoha Military Police Force will not be limited to Konoha, or even Land of Fire. You said, Konoha Military Police Force will become the 'symbol of justice' for the entire Shinobi World in the future, and make everyone think of 'justice', 'protection' and 'hope' when mentioning 'Uchiha'."
"Not bad." Senju Chen said.
"Over the years, we have been working hard towards this goal." Hearing Senju Chen's affirmation, Fugaku's voice was slightly excited, "Now the people of Land of Fire have indeed We have regarded Konoha Military Police Force as their most trusted force. Every time we go on a mission, the people will even take the initiative to bring us water and meals. When the children see our Gunbai badge, their eyes are filled with admiration."
"This shows that you are doing a good job."
"But..." Fugaku's tone became hesitant, "Chen-kun, according to your plan for the year, Konoha Military Police Force should start to penetrate into other countries. Start with small countries first, and reach a 'co-defense cooperation' with those small countries, so that the influence of Konoha Military Police Force will gradually cover the entire Shinobi World."
"Yes." Senju Chen nodded, "This is indeed our next plan."
"But if this happens..." Fugaku took a deep breath, "The number of people we need to recruit will far exceed the total number of the Uchiha Clan now. By that time, the Uchiha people will become a minority in Konoha Military Police Force."
Senju Chen heard the meaning of Uchiha Fugaku's words, but he did not speak. He wanted to see what Uchiha Fugaku would choose in the end.
Fugaku gritted his teeth and continued.
"Chen-kun, it's not that I don't trust you. All of us will remember everything you have done for the Uchiha Clan over the years. Without you, there would be no Uchiha today."
"But..." Fugaku's voice was trembling.
"But we, Uchiha Clan, were oppressed for too long in the early years. Ever since Second Hokage, the higher-ups in the village have been wary of us and excluded us. We desperately tried to integrate into the village, but all we got in exchange was deeper isolation."
"Until you show up."
"You gave us hope and a real way out of this difficult situation."
"But..." Fugaku raised his head, his eyes full of complicated emotions.
"But there are some elders in the tribe and some older tribesmen who still feel uneasy. They often ask me something."
"Why?"
"Why Chen-kun do you trust us Uchiha Clan so much?"
"Why wouldn't Chen-kun, like Hokage in the past, worry that Uchiha Clan will plot against the village and Hokage Position when it develops in the future?"
"If according to your plan, Konoha Military Police Force really covers the entire Shinobi World in the future, wouldn't Uchiha Clan become the most powerful force in Shinobi World? By that time, will you really not start to fear us and suppress us like those people before?"
Fugaku After saying these words, his whole body seemed to have been drained of all strength, and he collapsed on the tatami.
"Chen-kun, I know these words are inappropriate. You have been very kind to us Uchiha Clan, and we should not have such thoughts."
"But..."
"But these years of experience have left too deep scars in our hearts. We can't believe that someone will really trust us without reservation Uchiha Clan."
"Chen-kun, I'm not afraid of your jokes. Recently, I sometimes suddenly wake up from my dreams. I dream that we Uchiha Clan were slaughtered overnight, with blood flowing into rivers, and no one was left."
"In fact, sometimes I feel that everything is a little unreal. I understand what the elders in the clan think. They are afraid..."
"The more they get now, the more afraid they are. They are afraid that everything now is just a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water."
The living room fell into a deathly silence.
Fugaku lowered his head, not daring to look at Senju Chen's expression.
He knew that what he just said was too serious.
But he must say it.
Because this is not just his doubts, but also the uneasiness buried deep in the heart of the Uchiha Clan.
If this layer of window paper is not broken, they will never be able to truly let down their guard.
A long time.
The voice of Senju Chen sounded.
"Uncle Fugaku."
Fugaku raised his head suddenly.
"Uncle Fugaku, I'm very happy that you can express what's in your heart, really."
Fugaku was stunned.
"Because this shows that you have begun to truly regard me as one of your own." Senju Chen smiled, "If you only treat me with respect and no doubts, then it means that there is still a gap in your hearts."
"Chen-kun..."
"Why did you ask me just now?" Senju Chen stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the two little guys who were still playing wildly in the yard.
"I can tell you the answer right now."
He turned around and looked at Fugaku.
Then, he slowly raised his hand and pointed at his eyes.
The next second.
Fugaku's pupils suddenly contracted.
Senju Chen's eyes suddenly changed from black to red.
Three pitch-black Tomoe slowly rotated in his eye sockets.
Sharingan!
Fugaku was frozen in place, his mind going blank.
Impossible...
How is it possible...
Chen-kun...Chen-kun How could there be Sharingan?
He is obviously of the Senju Clan's bloodline, how could he have their Uchiha Clan's Sharingan???
Senju Chen looked at Fugaku's shocked expression and said calmly.
"Uncle Fugaku, I am indeed a descendant of the Senju Clan."
"But at the same time--"
"The blood of the Uchiha Clan also flows in my body, which is why I trust our Uchiha Clan so much."
Boom!
This sentence was like a thunder, exploding directly in Fugaku's mind.
He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but found that he couldn't even say a word.
Senju...and Uchiha...
Double blood?
Excite two Kekkei Genkai at the same time?
How is this possible?
"My father is from the Senju Clan." Senju Chen said slowly, "And my mother is a member of our Uchiha Clan tribe who lives outside."
"They met and fell in love during the war, and finally gave birth to me."
"Probably because the grievances between the two tribes were too deep, they didn't dare to let anyone know about this relationship, so they had no choice but to flee the village."
"I was too young at the time and didn't quite understand what it meant, but the clan leader should know what happened later."
