Conspiring to Steal the Scroll of Seals!

The students' interest in ninjutsu was clearly much higher than in other subjects.

During cultural studies, my mind wandered, thinking about the Clone Technique.

During physical training, I found a corner to hide in and practiced the Clone Technique.

After completing the basic exercises in the ninja tool class, I also practiced the Clone Technique.

This was the norm for Uchiha Setsuna's current class.

In a little over a month, the students in the class had gotten to know each other somewhat.

Small cliques had formed.

Yamanaka Ino and Haruno Sakura hadn't fallen out because of Uchiha Setsuna's appearance.

Akimichi Choji often followed behind Nara Shikamaru.

Because he was obese as a child, not many people wanted to play with Akimichi Choji. Nara Shikamaru couldn't stand it and approached Akimichi Choji, finally giving him his first friend.

No matter the world, the types of children who get ostracized are similar.

Those who look bad or come from poor families are easily targeted.

However, for Akimichi Choji, a member of the Akimichi Clan, to face such a situation, does this prove that the Akimichi Clan's status in Konoha isn't that high?

Is there a possibility of pulling the Akimichi Clan into the Uchiha faction?

Uchiha Setsuna withdrew his gaze and recalled.

The Akimichi Clan was actually a fairly strong ninja clan.

In the past, a clan member had even become one of the Second Hokage Tobirama Senju's disciples.

Tobirama Senju had a total of six official disciples.

Uchiha Setsuna didn't count Kosuke among them.

Hiruzen Sarutobi became Hokage.

Shimura Danzo became the "Darkness of Konoha."

Utatane Koharu became an elder, responsible for the medical department.

Mitokado Homura became an elder, responsible for some political affairs.

Uchiha Kagami hadn't made an appearance since Tobirama Senju's death. It's clear he died in that incident and never had a chance to return to Konoha. But I don't know if he died at the hands of Kumogakure or Konoha's own people.

Given Tobirama Senju's dislike for the Uchiha Clan, what kind of person was Uchiha Kagami to earn his approval?

There was one more person, named Akimichi Torifu.

He appeared once during the Nine-Tails Attack and then disappeared. He was still just a regular ninja at that time.

Uchiha Setsuna felt the disparity was too great.

Among the others, except for the deceased Uchiha Kagami, the lowest position held was elder.

Even if Akimichi Torifu's strength was lacking or his mind wasn't sharp, with the status of a Second Hokage disciple, couldn't he at least become some kind of honorary elder?

Furthermore, even after the Akimichi Clan produced someone like Akimichi Torifu, among the Ino-Shika-Cho alliance, the Nara Clan still took the lead, with the Akimichi Clan merely as followers.

And the Ino-Shika-Cho alliance as a whole was a follower of the Sarutobi Clan.

Has the Akimichi Clan been treated unfairly?

In the afternoon Transformation Technique class, Iruka checked each student's progress.

"Uchiha Sasuke!"

"Hyuga Hinata!"

"Nara Shikamaru!"

"Uchiha Setsuna!"

Iruka called Uchiha Setsuna's name.

Uchiha Setsuna stepped forward and performed hand seals.

"Clone Technique!"

He couldn't produce any clones.

"It's okay, keep up the good work."

"Yes, Iruka-sensei, thank you."

Uchiha Setsuna returned to his seat.

Uchiha Sasuke glanced over, his feelings complicated.

Uchiha Setsuna pretended not to see.

In the Life Simulator, Uchiha Setsuna had killed Uchiha Sasuke several times already, but this was with Uchiha Sasuke's own consent.

Uchiha Setsuna questioned Uchiha Sasuke: knowing that Uchiha Itachi had exterminated the entire Uchiha clan, was he willing to sacrifice his own life to bring pain to Uchiha Itachi?

Uchiha Sasuke agreed.

The Life Simulator was not the real world, but the characters were completely consistent.

This made Uchiha Setsuna feel a bit more favorably towards Uchiha Sasuke.

One day passed quietly.

The next day.

"This time, I'll try to see if I can steal the Scroll of Seals."

In the original plot, Uchiha Setsuna knew that Naruto had successfully stolen the Scroll of Seals.

However, Uchiha Setsuna didn't believe the Scroll of Seals would be so easily stolen.

For Konoha, it could be considered the most important collection of ninjutsu.

The difficulty for Naruto to steal it and for himself to steal it would be like the difference between heaven and earth.

But Uchiha Setsuna still wanted to try.

If he failed, it would merely be a waste of one Life Simulator.

No, it wouldn't even be considered a waste.

Before undertaking this action, Uchiha Setsuna would definitely find something that guaranteed at least some reward, so as not to gain nothing at all. After multiple simulations, Uchiha Setsuna had gained experience.

"Before attempting to steal the Scroll of Seals, I need to sell out Konoha's intelligence to Kumogakure."

"Let Kumogakure attack Konoha."

"When war breaks out, Konoha's situation will become chaotic, and only then will I have an opportunity to fish in troubled waters."

The reason for choosing Kumogakure was simple.

Sunagakure had ambitions, but without assistance, they wouldn't dare.

Rasa dared to invade Konoha entirely because of Orochimaru's invitation.

Iwagakure was too cautious; Onoki had changed after he grew old.

Kirigakure was too preoccupied to concentrate its forces; Tobi Uchiha's revenge had left Kirigakure very vulnerable.

Kumogakure had the strongest power, and the Raikage acted decisively.

Moreover, Uchiha Setsuna had successful experience in previous Life Simulations.

"Begin simulation!"

[Age 6, you performed ordinarily.]

[Age 6 months and 1 month, you found a Kumogakure spy in Konoha and handed over Konoha's intelligence to this spy.]

[The Kumogakure spy transmitted the intelligence back to Kumogakure.]

[Age 6 months and 2 months, you found Mizuki and used Mind Invasion on him. You thought that Mizuki might have intelligence about the Scroll of Seals since he instigated Naruto to steal it.]

[You gained no information; Mizuki knew nothing.]

[Age 6 months and 3 months, Kumogakure took action against Konoha, and Konoha's situation became somewhat chaotic.]

[You are waiting for an opportunity.]

[Age 6 months and 4 months, Konoha's higher-ups found the Kumogakure spy. The Kumogakure spy revealed you, but you had used the Transformation Technique at the time, so Konoha did not learn your true identity.]

[You are waiting for an opportunity.]

[Age 6 months and 5 months, the war between Kumogakure and Konoha intensified. A large number of Uchiha clan members were sent to the battlefield, suffering heavy casualties.]

[You are waiting for an opportunity.]

[Age 6 months and 6 months, even the elderly students of the Uchiha clan were sent to the battlefield. You felt it would soon be your turn, so you took action and learned the Genjutsu Mahirune.]

[You arrived near the Hokage Office Building.]
