Chapter 169: A New Hokage and Unseen Shadows
Funan secretly thought about whether he should increase the amount of potions, but then shook his head helplessly.
In the process of splitting the fruit, there will be a lot of waste.
After a fruit is split, half of the eye power will be wasted.
If it weren't for the fact that he saw that many Uchiha were about to break the limit, Funan wouldn't want to waste a fruit like that.
In the clan, he can't be the only powerful one. He needs a group of strong and loyal Uchiha who can protect the clan in his absence.
Who knew that it could actually set off a potion fever.
He looked at Fugaku again.
"What are you looking at?" Fugaku felt uncomfortable being looked at and said unhappily: "This bottle of mine is for Sasuke. That kid has a good talent and may awaken the Mangekyo in the future."
"Mangekyo? That's easy!" Funan curled his lips and said: "I will chop you and Itachi to death in front of him, and he will probably awaken."
"Get lost!" Fugaku cursed.
Moreover, in the long run, sacrificing two Mangekyo to awaken one Mangekyo, is that crazy?
By the way, Mikoto!
Fugaku looked at Funan suspiciously. Why didn't this guy mention Mikoto?
Sacrificing her would be the most practical option.
However, Funan deliberately avoided talking about Mikoto and did not joke about her.
Thinking of Funan's style, Fugaku felt uneasy.
He knew how beautiful his wife was.
Funan would not kill his acquaintance, right?
Fugaku felt very sad.
Fugaku said hesitantly: "You are very sure of the position of Hokage, but what about the Uchiha clan leader? When are you going to take over? It's not a solution to keep going like this."
"Let's talk about it later." Funan looked outside and said in a deep voice: "Don't be careless, Fugaku-sama. Do you know? When is a person most likely to fail?"
Without waiting for Fugaku to answer, he continued: "When you think you will win, you are most likely to fail."
"So, we should not only not relax recently, but also be vigilant."
"No one knows what means Sarutobi Hiruzen will use in his last fight."
Funan's lips were drawn with an evil smile.
...
The villagers of Konoha argued heatedly every day.
Who should take the position of Hokage?
It was said that Tsunade had already passed the jonin vote, but the succession process was halted.
Moreover, many people are now recommending that Uchiha Funan become the new Hokage.
As Hyuga Hiashi came to the Uchiha clan, the atmosphere of the whole Konoha changed again.
Although the Inuzuka clan is also a big clan, it is far behind the Hyuga clan in terms of influence.
Funan made a prompt decision and launched a general attack.
He ordered those who surrendered to him to bring some people and surrender to him.
Aburame, Inuzuka, Kurama, Yuhi, Uzuki...
One after another, several jonin came to the Uchiha clan, requesting that the Uchiha stay in Konoha and that Funan become Hokage.
With the increase in people, neutrals began to arrive at the Uchiha clan, joining the group and strengthening their numbers.
...
Hokage Residence.
The people in the meeting room became more and more impatient.
They knew that every time the number of people in front of the Uchiha clan would increase.
However, the number of people present in the meeting room was decreasing.
"Let's go together!" Shikaku suddenly looked at Hiruzen and said in a deep voice: “Now is the time to take the initiative, so that we will at least have some advantage in the future. Once the situation is defined, there will be no possibility of counterattacking.”
Hiruzen looked at Shikaku in surprise.
The same goes for Torifu.
Wasn't he always supposed to remain neutral, trying to balance things from the perspective of the Ino-Shika-Cho clans?
Now that the situation is clearer, is he making such a choice?
In an instant, the two understood.
Uchiha needs an enemy!
If not the Third Hokage, it could be the Ino-Shika-Cho clans.
If the Third Hokage were to fail, who would the Uchiha target next?
It could only be the Ino-Shika-Cho clans!
Hiruzen laughed softly and said: “Shikaku, I didn’t expect you to be unable to contain yourself.”
Shikaku smiled bitterly and said: “Uchiha Funan’s aggressiveness is too strong. Although he seems to have no ambitions, he actually wants to have everything under his control. The Ino-Shika-Cho clans do not want to become slaves.”
"Really?" Hiruzen smiled faintly and said: "I think we still have a certain possibility of cooperation."
In the absence of other options, the Ino-Shika-Cho clans and the Third Hokage came to a temporary agreement.
But...
Utatane Koharu looked a little dazed.
The fragile alliance of the two major forces will not change because of a small shinobi clan leader like Koharu.
She can only go with the flow.
This is the sadness of the weak.
Although the Utatane Clan and the Mitokado Clan number over a thousand shinobi, no one pays much attention to them.
...
More and more shinobi gathered outside the Uchiha clan.
As the number of people increased, the atmosphere became more and more vibrant.
Jiraiya watched from afar, watching as thousands of shinobi gathered as if it were a meeting. He sighed and said: "The overall situation has been decided. I can't think of it, I can't think of it."
"What can't be expected." Tsunade sneered and said: "The old man wants to control Konoha all the time, that's a dream. Konoha is composed of countless shinobi clans, big and small. Shinobi, in the end, are also people, they have thoughts, they are not tools.”
Her face was full of sarcasm, and she said: "Danzo's slogan has always been that shinobi should obey and should not have feelings. They are the best tools. Bullshit, did he do it himself?"
"Uchiha Funan said something right. Why was it the second grandfather who died at the beginning, not the old man and Danzo? They are more valuable?"
Jiraiya smiled bitterly.
Tsunade looked at Uchiha again and said slowly: "If the old man and Danzo had died, Konoha might..."
Suddenly, a wave of exclamations interrupted his thoughts.
In the astonished eyes of the crowd, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Akimichi Torifu and Nara Shikaku strode over.
After seeing them coming, Tsunade chuckled and said: "It's over, let's go, Jiraiya, we should go to welcome the new Hokage."
The change of Konoha began from then on!
This year, little Naruto is five years old!
This year, the Fifth Hokage, the first shinobi of the Uchiha Clan, took power!
...
In a dark space, a gigantic and terrifying statue stands. Standing on its ten fingers, figures can be seen.
"Haha, it's really interesting!"
“So Uchiha has become Hokage!”
"From now on, it will be the Uchiha's turn to be the master of Konoha."
"Yes, the Uchiha, who was originally at a disadvantage, has become the ruler of Konoha. The Third Hokage and his men are no longer able to resist!"
"It's almost time to implement our plan, right?"
"Yes, the first phase of the plan can begin!"
"Let the world feel the pain!"
In the darkness, the Rinnegan eyes snap open.
At that moment, everyone becomes completely silent.
Following closely behind were strange figures.
There was a man with a tiger-striped mask.
There was a shark face.
There was a weird man covered in bandages.
...
Finally, a man wearing a silver mask appeared. In two of his pupils, the triangular kaleidoscope revealed an evil light.
"Uchiha Funan, when did you come? Didn't you just become Hokage?" Konan asked.
Funan said seriously: “Even though I am Hokage, I am still part of Akatsuki. I couldn’t miss such an important meeting, right?”
Then he winked at her.
"Hmph!" Pain snorted coldly, staring at Funan, and said: "Do you still consider yourself a member of Akatsuki?"
"Of course!" Funan raised his thumb, his teeth were shining.
“Whoever dares to say that I am not part of Akatsuki, I will eliminate them.”
“So I think we need to deepen our collaboration.” Pain glanced at Obito who was silent.
Funan chuckled and said: "I will discuss the specific cooperation with Konan in detail."
"Okay!" Konan agreed without waiting for Pain to refuse.
"Hmph!" Pain snorted coldly and disappeared on the spot.
He doesn't care about Konan having relationships with other men.
But Uchiha Funan, that bastard, just doesn't seem like a good guy at all.
How can Pain feel at ease when he is with Konan.
…
“Zehahaha!”
In the Hokage’s office, Uchiha Funan crossed his legs and pointed his nose at the people in front of him. “You, call me!”
Everyone looked at each other and said politely, “The fifth Hokage!”
Funan nodded with satisfaction, looking at everyone, and finally fixed on Hiruzen.
“The third Hokage!”
“Do you know who I am?” Funan pointed at his nose.
Hiruzen said in a muffled voice: “The fifth Hokage.”
“Zehahaha!” Funan slapped the table and laughed out loud.
That smug look really deserved a beating.
Fugaku can barely contain his disgust.
