Naruto: Awakening Eternal Power with My Eye Techniques

Thanks to his formidable strength, Shiyu Uchiha successfully defeated four top experts within the Paramilitary Police Force, earning full recognition from all members of the force and firmly securing his position as chief.

However, this recognition alone didn't mean everything was fully settled—it would still require relentless effort and personal commitment from Shiyu Uchiha to consolidate his position.

Then, within just half a month afterward, although Konoha's F4 faction tried to create obstacles, fortunately Shiyu Uchiha had foreseen this. Seizing the moment when the village was in an uproar over the White Fang incident, he quickly moved behind the scenes—maneuvering so skillfully that not only did the White Fang affair quietly fade away, but the four of them were left scrambling.

This slowed their reaction just enough to throw them off. More importantly, even after realizing what was happening, they couldn't invest too much energy into countermeasures for some time, making it convenient for Shiyu's own actions. As expected, those four fell one step behind.

Thus, this gave Shiyu Uchiha enough time to skillfully leverage the high prestige accumulated over twenty years under Uchiha Shizhi's rule, stabilizing his own position further.

Ultimately, Shiyu Uchiha smoothly won this battle without open warfare. As for the upcoming Clan Leadership seat, Shiyu had long been confident of victory—after all, from the very beginning of the Paramilitary Police Force's formation, it had been clear that whoever controlled the Uchiha Clan's full military strength would essentially guarantee themselves the leadership.

Yet Shiyu Uchiha did not rush to take up the clan leader's seat immediately. Instead, he planned to make use of this golden opportunity to thoroughly reorganize the Police Force first before proceeding with his second major initiative as the new chief.

Through careful observation over these past few days, he clearly realized that while the Public Security Division appeared calm on the surface, due to its complicated personnel composition, many agents had inevitably been bribed by individuals like the Third Hokage and Danzō, causing hidden turbulence that could erupt at any moment.

Such infiltration was an inevitable consequence during the reform phase of the Police Force. If there hadn't been such compromises made previously, those who lost benefits—including the Third Hokage and other clans—wouldn't secretly support the reform efforts. In fact, someone like the Third Hokage would likely set up countless visible and hidden obstacles in their path.

Back then, because of his cultivation pursuits, Shiyu Uchiha had no time to deal with these issues. Likewise, given health concerns, Uchiha Shizhi could only focus limited attention on the Paramilitary Police Force—the foundation of their power—leaving them with little choice but to prioritize the lesser evil: abandoning control over the Public Security Division and allowing it to develop freely.

But circumstances change with time. Now that matters concerning the Paramilitary Police Force were fully resolved, the energetic Shiyu Uchiha had begun consolidating power. If the issues within the Public Security Division weren't dealt with immediately, major chaos could erupt—and as its chief, Shiyu would be the first to bear the consequences.

More importantly, the new Police Force "pie" was finally ready to be sliced. Naturally, the fewer people partaking in it, the better. According to Shiyu Uchiha's plan, aside from Sarutobi and their four allied families, others could have portions. Even more generous shares could be offered to certain individuals to gain their support—as long as they followed the Uchiha Clan's rules.

Shiyu Uchiha also worried about going for the Clan Leadership just yet—if he made his move now, even the busy Hiruzen Sarutobi would find time to stir up trouble. The situation surrounding the Public Security Division was bound to blow up.

If members of the peace-oriented faction, under Sarutobi's provocation, created more obstacles for him, they wouldn't pose any real threat to him personally due to his strength, but their interference would definitely get on his nerves. Although killing could solve problems, it should be the last resort—he'd better avoid shedding blood of his own clan.

This could put him in a position where instead of smoothly carrying out his reform plans, he might be put on the defensive. After all, those few had mastered the art of internal strife to perfection and must not be underestimated under any circumstances. Therefore, he needed time to deal with these potential threats one by one.

Yet time was pressing. Shiyu Uchiha had to act fast; otherwise, once those people finished handling their current matters, they would inevitably bring him great troubles.

Just then, Shiyu Uchiha received the Uchiha clan's notification for the monthly clan meeting. Originally, this meeting was supposed to be hosted by Uchiha Shizhi, but she claimed illness as an excuse and asked Shiyu Uchiha to take her place.

This move sent a crucial message to all Uchiha members: Shiyu Uchiha had already begun gradually taking over family affairs and was soon to become the next clan leader.

For Shiyu Uchiha, this was merely a small challenge to familiarize himself with clan administration. Successfully presiding over this clan meeting would allow him to gain support from more people.

Conversely, poor performance might trigger dissatisfaction among certain clan members but wouldn't significantly affect his future position. After all, to most Uchiha, politics was only a bonus factor—it influenced becoming clan leader somewhat, but not decisively.

During the meeting, Shiyu Uchiha first explained why he was presiding over this gathering and reintroduced himself, primarily addressing the older, influential figures who didn't work within the Police Force. He requested their understanding and support.

Currently, among the clan's three elders, the Elder Fukasaku seat had remained vacant since the former Elder Fukasaku's death. Under Uchiha Shizhi's dominance, the seat had been intentionally left empty—a reward long due to Renga Uchiha for his years of meritorious service.

Elder Ni of the clan, representing the peace-oriented faction, held some authority, but alone couldn't threaten Shiyu Uchiha—especially after the Paramilitary Police Force's establishment.

More importantly, perhaps because the relationship between the Uchiha clan and Konoha Village had gradually improved, satisfying his values, he recently became more compliant.

Yet, in Shiyu Uchiha's view, his lack of strength remained the most crucial factor—after all, neither Uchiha Shizhi nor Renga Uchiha were opponents he dared provoke.

At the same time, he was also currently the biggest destabilizing factor within the clan. In the name of the family's best interests and better integration into Konoha, he secretly communicated with certain members of the Public Security Division as well as the Third. Uchiha Shizhi had long been aware of this but chose not to expose it, instead feigning ignorance to keep them off guard—after all, the Uchiha Clan still needed time to grow stronger.

Meanwhile, the Third Elder of the Uchiha Clan, father of Fugaku, had recently grown seriously weak due to a recurrence of old wounds, his life force gradually fading away. He had been bedridden at home and couldn't even attend recent clan meetings. His only wish now was to see his grandson be born, and he had already given the boy a name long ago.
