Chapter 335 Shisui and Itachi
The three of Nara Shikaku who had been discussing for a whole night came to visit Akimichi Tōfū's house. Next, they had to gain his support.
“The past is unchangeable and the future is unpredictable, but you can choose now.”
After hearing the purpose of the three people's visit, Akimichi Tifeng glanced at the Hokage Building.
"We old guys represent the past, so we don't want to mess with it. Choji and the others represent the future, with infinite possibilities, and you represent the present. Make the choice you think is right. I will explain it to the Hokage later. "
Not to mention the juniors, even he has been very disappointed with the old guys over the years.
It is also time to seek a new future for the family, and we cannot really sink in the broken ship of Konoha.
Seeing Akimichi Tofaze close his eyes and continue rocking in the rocking chair to rest, Nara Shikaku and the others quietly exited.
With this person's permission, they can select people with confidence.
There is no need to transfer all the clansmen there, that is not realistic.
This time it is for the continuation of the family's inheritance. As long as the family is not wiped out, it is just right to select half of the people, especially women and children.
According to Cloud Hidden Village's policy in this regard, women and children can better integrate into Cloud Hidden Village. In the past, it was difficult for adult ninjas to be reused, and they might even be under surveillance.
Of course, you also need to pay attention to concealment to avoid being noticed in advance.
Although Uncle Toufeng was in front to explain to the Sandaime and others, it could reduce some trouble.
Not to mention the Inar, Deer, and Butterfly tribes who started plotting here, on the other side of the Uchiha tribe, Tamura Hao finished his breakfast and came to Fugaku-kun's mansion to chat with Qi Qi, and created a shadow clone again. Instruct the second assistant to practice.
"Fugaku-kun has been quite unsatisfied these past few years!"
Looking at the white hair on Uchiha Fugaku's temples, Tamura Hao felt even more sympathy for this person.
"You were right at the beginning. We Uchiha are indeed incapable of defeating the grandson of Sarutobi Hiruzen in terms of intrigues."
Uchiha Fugaku was completely convinced by this man's original analysis of their Uchiha.
Although he suffered successive blows in the three great ninja wars, he still believed in the future of Uchiha. But who would have thought that when he was struggling, his home would be quietly stolen by Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Uchiha Shisui, whom he valued, turned to Hiruzen Sarutobi, and even the traitor also turned to Hiruzen Sarutobi.
That time he was so angry that he vomited blood, and it also wiped away the energy in his heart.
"I heard from Sasuke that this time you came to Konoha, you had the idea of inviting juniors to come over for exchanges and studies. Is there a quota limit?"
Uchiha Fugaku was very worried about the future. Even though Sasuke's potential was very good, it was only potential and it would take many years to grow up.
But I don’t know when the next great ninja war will break out, and by then the whole of Konoha might be gone again.
As the contemporary patriarch of Uchiha, he must be responsible and plan for the family.
"I see the shadow of the leader of the Lieyang clan in you now."
Tamura Hao was stunned for a moment, and then sighed.
Fugaku-kun, who was so high-spirited back then, is still old.
"I actually looked down on my uncle back then, but only now do I understand his difficulties, the difficulties of the family and the darkness of the village."
Uchiha Fugaku was also sighing, and immediately asked: "Uncle, he is probably not dead yet."
With Tsunade in Cloud Hidden Village, she should be able to help the uncle recuperate his body and live for another ten or twenty years without any problem.
After all, the uncle is not too old. It is more of an overdraft deficit caused by the use of kaleidoscope.
"I really want that old guy to kick his legs quickly, and then use Fire Release to cremate him and bury him. I have prepared an urn for him."
When he thought of his old father-in-law, Tamura Hao felt depressed and really wanted to crush that old guy to ashes.
"Senior Lieyang is still alive."
Namikaze Minato was quite surprised. He had seen the previous Uchiha clan leader, a very old man.
"If I didn't have the shame to see my uncle, I would have wanted to talk to him."
Uchiha Fugaku missed his uncle very much. Now he was no longer young. He had a deeper understanding of the world and a better understanding of the despair within.
"There is no limit on the number of students who can enroll, as long as their mentality is OK."
Tamura Hao turned the topic back to the invitation for exchange and study. It could be seen that Uchiha Fugaku had the same thoughts as Uchiha Lieyang back then, and after so many years, Uchiha also had a lot of little guys.
Now that Fugaku-kun has this idea, let him turn around.
"I see."
Uchiha Fugaku nodded clearly, and Minato Namikaze next to him pursed his lips tightly, unable to stop him.
The situation in the village has always been very troublesome, and the old guy's body has always been very strong, with no obvious signs of aging. It would be difficult for him to voluntarily abdicate.
He also had a headache about this situation and didn't know how to break the situation.
Moreover, the Fifth Ninja War will break out who knows when. It is not appropriate to confront that old guy at this time. Once the enemy finds an opportunity, Konoha will really be doomed.
"Who is that girl?"
Tamura Hao looked at the woman practicing swordsmanship not far away. Yesterday, he saw the girl helping Fugaku-kun's wife Uchiha Mion to cook, and she looked very intimate.
"Her name is Quan, and she is the fiancée of that evil beast. Unfortunately, that evil beast made the wrong choice."
Looking at the spring over there, Uchiha Fugaku couldn't help but think of that evil beast.
I used to be proud of that bastard, but who would have thought that bastard would give me a big one? How could I have given birth to such a bastard?
"Itachi's fiancée."
Tamura Hao became interested. It seems that there is such a character in the Naruto anime. Since it is a plot character, let's take it away together.
"Minato, I want to talk to Shisui and Itachi. Can you help me make an appointment?"
Turning his head to look at Namikaze Minato, he wanted to know what the mentality of Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi was.
"I can only submit an application to the Hokage."
Namakaze Minato did not agree. He could not make the decision on this matter. After all, those two people were Sarutobi Hiruzen's men.
"Then I will go to visit the strongest Hokage."
Tamura Hao drank the tea on the table, then nodded to Uchiha Fugaku and stood up to walk out.
Namakaze Minato did not follow this time. He did not want to see the old guy.
"Minato-kun, does Konoha still have a future?"
Uchiha Fugaku looked at his son who was practicing not far away, and he couldn't help but feel confused about the future.
According to the current situation, Konoha's future is very bleak, and it is difficult for him to see hope.
This is also one of the main reasons for his depression. Even if he killed Sarutobi Hiruzen and became Hokage, he couldn't lead the village to a new future, mainly because he didn't have time.
Not to mention that the village has long been a dead end and there is no hope.
Five years ago, they secretly planned a famous coup to seize power, and all aspects were prepared, but they failed because of that evil beast and Shisui. Since then, there has been no chance.
Namikaze Minato didn't say anything, because he was also confused about the future and didn't know how to go on.
Not to mention the two confused people here, on the other side, Tamura Hao went straight to the Hokage building, and after saying that he wanted to see the Third Hokage, he was taken up by an Anbu ninja not long after.
"Third Hokage, I want to talk to Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi."
Tamura Hao spoke straight to the point and handed over a thumb-sized bottle, which contained the Water of Life.
I believe that the old guy will need it very much.
Sure enough, seeing the Water of Life running over, Sarutobi Hiruzen decisively took it in his hands.
Sensing the pure life force of the liquid inside, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but feel more excited.
Half of the bottle traded last time was used for cell research, including cell activation and transplantation of the second generation teacher. The remaining time to maintain the body's condition after taking it is much shorter. He has felt that his physical condition has begun to decline in the past two years.
Now this bottle of Water of Life comes at the right time.
"I don't want you, the Hidden Cloud Village, to interfere in our internal affairs."
Turning his eyes to the young man opposite, Sarutobi Hiruzen said the bottom line.
"Of course, our Cloud Village is very satisfied with the stable development of Konoha over the years, and we still need you, the Third Hokage, to continue to sit in this position."
Tamura Hao said that we are on the same side, and our Cloud Village firmly supports you, Sarutobi Hiruzen, to take charge of Konoha. If anyone disagrees, our Cloud Village will be the first to disagree.
This made Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyelids jump, which was a shame for him.
"I'm waiting for them in the Food and Entertainment City."
After saying this, Tamura Hao turned and left.
"Teacher!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the water of life in his hand for a while, and then looked at the four photos on the opposite wall.
It was the first and second generation teachers, as well as himself and Danzo.
Looking at the photos of the two teachers, he couldn't help but think of the teachings of the two teachers back then, especially the entrustment of the second generation teacher before his death.
He didn't know when he changed, but he had no choice.
The current situation in Konoha is very clear. Either it continues like this, or he and his family members are all destroyed and those people take power, or everyone perishes together.
Faced with such a situation, he himself is also very helpless. He can't even break the situation. Maintaining this balance is already the limit.
The situation in the village has never changed. In the past, it was the opposition between his side and the Senju faction, and Uchiha was waiting for an opportunity. Now it is the confrontation between himself and those forces, and it is still an unsolvable situation.
Now the only way to break it is to use the next Ninja World War to get rid of those people, so that he can completely control the village. Without the constraints of those people, he can lead the village to develop and become stronger.
This is his philosophy and persistence, but he also understands that those people must have the same idea.
He can't see what the future will be like, so he can only persist like this.
Tamura Hao didn't know Sarutobi Hiruzen's inner thoughts. He slowly strolled to the food and entertainment city in Konoha Village.
Although Konoha has moved, the food and entertainment city is still built here, mainly funded by Uchiha.
Because the people used by the Food Entertainment City are basically locals, and they have mastered the technology and gameplay, it is not difficult to rebuild.
This is also the only branch that is out of the control of the Food Entertainment Company. Even Kakuzu dare not come here to collect the bills, he will be beaten to death.
After a stroll here, he finally came to a barbecue restaurant to enjoy it.
Not long after, two figures dressed in Anbu costumes walked in. They were Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi who came here after receiving the order.
"Sit down!"
Tamura Hao invited the two to sit down, and did not show any negative emotions to the two.
He was not one of his own, he just came over to take a look out of curiosity, and found an excuse to send Sarutobi Hiruzen a bottle of water of life to maintain his peak condition and continue to suppress Konoha.
Of course, I also want to find an opportunity to fool these two people and prepare for the ninja war in a few years.
The two were silent for a while, then walked to the opposite side and sat down, still silent.
Tamura Hao said as he put the pieces of meat on the grill with chopsticks.
"Don't be restrained, I'm just curious to talk to you, nothing else.
And speaking of which, you should call me uncle. Fugaku-kun and Ming Jing-kun and I are good rivals and confidants. "
"What does Senior Hao want to do when he comes to Konoha this time?"
After another moment of silence, Uchiha Shisui took off his mask, always wary of this person.
"You are so similar to Mr. Ming Jing. It's a pity that you still followed the same path as him and your grandfather. This may be the fate of your lineage."
Tamura Hao first looked at Uchiha Shisui's appearance. He was very similar to Uchiha Mingjing, especially his temperament.
"I came to Konoha this time just to bring people here to take the Chunin Exam. I wanted to meet some old friends and discuss the next ninja war. I also wanted to see the specific information about Konoha and bring some children to our place for exchanges. study.
Mr. Fugaku has already said before that he would select some children from the clan to go to our Yunyin Village for exchange and study. "
Uchiha Shisui was speechless when he heard these words. You are really direct enough.
But he does have the strength to say so. At least no one in the village is his opponent now, and it is impossible to defeat him even if he is the best.
This was the one who defeated and crippled Minato-senpai thirteen years ago, and his improvement over the years must have been even greater.
"What's going on with you guys? Especially you, Shisui. I told your mother when Miss Chiri and I came here, to remind her to be careful of Sarutobi Hiruzen. Why did you get involved with Sarutobi Hiruzen?"
Tamura Hao picked up a piece of grilled meat and blew it into his mouth. His eyes fell on Uchiha Shisui who was directly opposite him. He didn't understand what this person was thinking.
"My mother told me about my seniors when I was young, but my choice has nothing to do with my mother or Hokage-sama. It is purely for the sake of the village."
Uchiha Shisui has his own will, especially after reading the diaries of his father and grandfather, he inherited the will of fire.
Not for anyone, just for the village.
"What about you? Little Weasel."
Nodding in understanding, Tamura Hao looked at Uchiha Itachi, what was going on with him.
"The success rate of my father's plan back then was not high enough. Once it fails, Konoha will be destroyed. Moreover, there are also problems within their group. Once the Hokage is removed, it will inevitably split and form a new confrontation. In essence, the village will not get changed.”
Uchiha Itachi also took off his mask and revealed his thoughts back then.
My father and the others couldn't bear it back then and wanted to take a desperate gamble, but he didn't want to gamble like that. The risk was too great, and he couldn't risk the entire village.
At the same time, he wanted to use himself as a bridge with Brother Shisui to ease the conflicts between the two parties, and support a suitable new Hokage to take over when the third generation of Hokage grew old.
To put it simply, it was a peaceful transition. The idea of a military coup like my father's was too extreme.
"Just have your own ideas. I'm really worried that you were deceived by that old guy Sarutobi Hiruzen using his will of fire."
Nodding in understanding, Tamura Hao thought this was normal.
Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi are not really fools. At most, they are a little paranoid and extreme in their ideas. They all have their own ideas in doing so.
After all, this is a real world, not a comic book that can be set or even changed at will. There can be no contradictory settings.
"Eat, I ordered for three people."
He motioned for the two of them to use their chopsticks as well. Tamura Hao was treating guests to dinner this time.
The two hesitated for a while, but finally picked up the chopsticks and put the slices of meat on the grill.
"The Fifth Ninja War should be within a few years. Do you have any thoughts on it?"
Tamura Hao asked while flipping the barbecue.
"We in Konoha shouldn't be worthy of your siege now, right?"
Holding the chopsticks in his hand, Uchiha Shisui smiled bitterly.
He has been to the mainland and seen the development of the three major ninja countries, especially the Yunyin Village, which has reached an unimaginable level.
With the current size of the three major ninja nations, it is really not that difficult to destroy Konoha. It would even be enough for the Thundercloud ninja nation, that is, the Kumogakure family.
"We are not attacking Konoha, but there are new enemies. Do you still remember the battle in the Fourth Ninja War? You should have seen the man who used the power of the Rinnegan to turn the entire Konoha into a ball. Information about that battle.
The Rinnegan is said to have the power to create and destroy the world, far exceeding the current limit of power in the ninja world.
That person will definitely improve even more in these years, and may really be able to show the power of creation and destruction.
The appearance of those eyes is no coincidence. We have also obtained some information from Miaomu Mountain, all pointing to the surprising changes that will occur in this era. You and he should be more careful. "
Tamura Hao seemed very sincere, but the two of them frowned.
Will the Fifth Ninja War be like that?
"So we may not necessarily be enemies in the future?"
Uchiha Itachi asked tentatively, it would be great if he could not become an enemy of Kumogakure Village, or even the entire Ninja Village Alliance.
In the three previous Ninja World Wars, the Ninja Village Alliance besieged their Konoha, which led to heavy losses.
If it comes again, Konoha will really end.
"It's not certain. We will see how it works out.
I tell you this because you are rare sober people. Although your choices are a bit strange, you at least have your own ideas and cognition, and your strength and potential are also good. Maybe you will play a role in the future Ninja World War."
Nodding, Tiancun Hao said that his position has indeed changed.
"Will the next Ninja World War happen in our Konoha?"
Uchiha Shisui suddenly seemed to have guessed something, and the chopsticks in his hand were broken.
It won't be that bad, right?
"Congratulations, you guessed it right!"
Blowing a piece of barbecue and stuffing it into his mouth, Tiancun Hao congratulated him, saying that the young man guessed it right.
"The tailed beasts seem to be the main target of the other party. You, Konoha, have the most tailed beasts in the ninja world, and the owner of the Samsara Eye has an irreconcilable blood feud with your Konoha. The main battlefield will definitely be here in the end."
The expressions of the two people were so ugly. The things in this village have not been resolved yet, but the battlefield of the ninja world war has been booked here in advance.
This is no longer called internal and external troubles.
Compared to the gloom of the two people, Tiancun Hao ate very happily.
"Finally, as an elder, I kindly remind you not to carry things that exceed your own endurance limit. I also hope that you will not become like Mingjing Jun who is tortured by pain and goes to extremes and seeks relief."
After eating and drinking, Tiancun Hao wiped his mouth with a tissue and kindly reminded him before leaving. (End of this chapter)
