Chapter 35: Chapter 35: He's Angry!
Fugaku, with his fierce eyes, could never do such a thing. In Itsuki's words, he's like his eyes, his brain doesn't turn.
Old Zongyi is even more out of the question. He was so eager to integrate the village into Konoha that he ended up pandering to the Hokage faction. In Itsuki's view, as long as it was good for the village, no matter how detrimental it was to the Uchiha, he would gladly accept it. The scariest thing is, he himself hasn't realized it, yet he believes everything he does is for the Uchiha.
Hmm, a very familiar tone.
Danzo...
Hehe, this guy should be in confinement now. The Hokage has given the order, even if he's just acting, he has to be locked up for a few days! To cause trouble at this time is not only slapping the Hokage in the face, it's truly challenging the village's patience.
Itsuki thought for a long time, such a sly maneuver, besides himself, probably only Uchiha Satana would do it.
The former Uchiha Satana was very rigid. He challenged the heavens, the earth, and the air! After being taught a lesson several times, he learned to adapt. Simply put, the current Uchiha Satana is someone who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals.
Regardless of good or bad, I only want results.
He's older and already influential within the Uchiha, and because of the relationship between the village and the Uchiha, he's started to gain power, his forces growing stronger. The Konoha Military Police stepped in to stop it, but it seemed more like a show, resulting in the opposite effect.
Therefore!
The rumor that the Uchiha have five thousand ninjas is spreading more and more fiercely.
Sometimes, when a lie is told enough, it becomes true. I didn't believe it, but you believed it, he believed it, if I don't believe it, wouldn't I be out of the loop?
"You don't know, when I walk on the street, the way the ninjas around me look at me, it's so weird!"
Uchiha Mokujin, sitting on the sofa opposite Itsuki, poured out his grievances. Beside him, a young ninja was nodding vigorously.
Uchiha Nanto!
These are the two trump cards Itsuki has placed outside.
Two Jonin!
The Uchiha's Jonin, no matter where they are placed, no one dares to ignore them. With them around, it becomes easier for Itsuki to do certain things.
This is the muscle Itsuki just flexed today, as for whether others can accept it...
Hehe, Itsuki, with his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, says, none of my business. If you can accept it, accept it, if you can't... come fight me!
I'll activate my Gundam, if one punch doesn't flatten you, it's on me!
That's how arrogant he is!
"Just bear with it a little longer, you're a Jonin after all, don't you have any resilience?"
Itsuki said casually, not even looking at him.
"You don't know, that kind of look, tsk tsk, it feels like if this goes on, my mental state... sigh."
Mokujin looked at Itsuki slyly.
That expression, that tone, as an old acquaintance, Itsuki understood too well.
Little thing, bah, old thing, wants benefits.
Itsuki looked at him with a smile and said, "Don't worry, if you really follow White Fang, I'll definitely make you a pure jade coffin, no, we're Uchiha, what do we need a coffin for? We'll definitely use Fire Style!"
"This, this..."
"Don't worry about the cost, I'll give you a discount!" Itsuki patted Mokujin's shoulder and said, "Have you forgotten what we're preparing to do? Businessmen, we value honesty, and between acquaintances, there must be discounts."
Nanto smiled and said, "Mokujin is close to us, we've known each other for years, sir, how much of a discount?"
"Must be a full-blown fracture!"
Nanto was surprised and said, "First a fracture, then burning? That way he can't escape, sir, you're smart, I've learned, I've learned."
Mokujin's eyebrows twitched, and he said awkwardly, "I'm still alive, no need to think so far ahead."
Itsuki was taken aback and said, "Burning alive? Then you have to pay extra!"
What the hell is burning alive, I've only heard of burying alive.
And, I don't want to die.
Mokujin sighed deeply and said, "Lord Itsuki, I was wrong."
"Where were you wrong?"
"Wherever you say I was wrong, I was wrong there." Mokujin was very straightforward.
Itsuki smiled ambiguously: "These words, how come it sounds like I'm threatening you? Are you feeling wronged?"
Mokujin said weakly, "Please give me a way out."
"Pfft, haha!" Nanto couldn't help but burst into laughter and said, "Sir, Mokujin has indeed been working hard recently, the Mangekyo Sharingan incident also involved him, if it weren't for our help in secret, he would really be cremated by now."
"Sir, you see, shouldn't we teach some people a lesson?"
"Some people's actions have crossed the line!"
There was killing intent in Nanto's eyes.
Mokujin was attacked, if it weren't for their help in secret, relying on Mokujin alone, his body would probably be stinking by now.
"Indeed, it's time for a reckoning."
Itsuki thought for a moment and said, "How are the things I asked you to do going?"
Mokujin's expression became serious, and he said, "The plan has already begun, but, isn't it causing a bit too much commotion?!"
He was a little apprehensive.
He had thought about getting revenge on those people.
But what Itsuki was doing, if not handled well, could lead to a new ninja world war.
The Fourth Shinobi World War!
He really didn't have the confidence.
Itsuki glanced at him, too lazy to answer, and just said, "Do what you're supposed to do, the rest is none of your concern, I'll handle the scale."
He got up, walked to the window, and silently looked outside with a smile on his face, but the words he spoke were unusually cold.
"The current village is truly disgusting."
"It's time for a change."
Nanto and Mokujin looked at each other, not saying a word.
As the two people familiar with the person in front of them, they knew very well that Itsuki had been accumulating anger for a long time.
Every time Konoha did something wrong to him, he would make a note of it in his heart.
Bit by bit, it finally awakened the sleeping beast.
Its cold eyes were fixed on this prosperous village.
Blood and wailing would become its main melody.
The two were powerless to change Itsuki's decision, nor did they want to.
They chose to follow Uchiha Itsuki, and naturally, they would closely follow his footsteps.
Moreover!
Uchiha Itsuki had never disappointed them.
The two stood up, came behind Itsuki, knelt on one knee, and said in a deep voice, "We swear to follow you to the death!"
In the distance, a masked person hid in the shadows, silently watching Itsuki.
Anbu!
Itsuki suddenly looked up, his eyes met his, and he smiled slightly, opening his mouth.
Because of the distance, the Anbu couldn't hear Itsuki's words, but he could understand his meaning.
"After you go back, do you know how to report?"
The Anbu ninja nodded and disappeared from the spot with a swoosh.
He was the Anbu responsible for monitoring Itsuki.
However, he had long since defected to Itsuki.
As for why he hadn't been discovered... because every report he made was true.
How could an Anbu who always brought important information, and true information at that, be suspected!
Itsuki smiled even more happily.
"I told you everything, I laid everything out in the open, what will your reaction be? Hmm?"
He suddenly turned his head, looked at Mokujin and Nanto, and said, "Mobilize all our people to spread rumors, make sure everyone believes that the Uchiha have five thousand ninjas."
"Yes!"
The two knew that Konoha was about to be restless again.
And rightly so!
Danzo and the others had made several moves, how could the Uchiha not retaliate?
There's no reason to always be the ones being beaten.
Next was the Uchiha's counterattack!
