Chapter 159 Uchiha's Gaze
After leaving Byakuya and Black Zetsu, Obito did not leave Konoha, but quietly entered the urban area.
He knew that Bai Ye and Black Zetsu would definitely discuss him when he was not around, but these actions of Black Zetsu were all ordered by him, with the purpose of paralyzing and using Bai Ye.
No matter how arrogant Bai Ye is, or how he laughs and ridicules himself, it cannot change the fact that he is a pawn.
After speeding through the city of Konoha for a while, Obito arrived at the remote Uchiha clan territory.
Due to its remote location, the Uchiha clan's territory was not greatly affected. There are still familiar streets, some familiar buildings and ninjas.
Soon, Obito noticed the Root and Guard Ninjas who were confronting each other outside the clan territory.
Seeing that both sides were still wary and suspicious of each other when the village encountered foreign enemies, Obito raised a sneer.
Konoha is still the same Konoha, with an indelible darkness hidden beneath its bright and beautiful appearance.
He was worried about what to do if he encountered his tribe members during the action. Unexpectedly, all the tribe members were stopped in the tribe land by Danzo's roots.
Next, as long as he releases some news that the attacker is an Uchiha, he can provoke relations between the tribe members and the village. In such a fierce conflict, there will always be a pair of eyes that he looks forward to.
That's right, after just experiencing a devastating defeat, Obito decided to build a force of his own.
Only by training a group of qualified subordinates can he regain the dominant position in the Moon Eye Plan. Apart from the isolated Mist Village, the most suitable place to train subordinates is the Uchiha of Konoha.
However, he still needs to observe slowly to decide which tribe member to train as his subordinate...
……
At this time in the Uchiha clan's territory, the Root and the security forces were still in a stalemate.
Danzo suspected that Uchiha was the culprit of tonight's attack and kept a close eye on every move of the security forces. However, Uchiha believed that Danzo's suspicion was groundless and was discrimination against Uchiha.
With this idea in mind, neither side could make concessions and the atmosphere became increasingly tense.
At this time, an Anbu ninja came to Danzo and whispered a few words in his ear. Danzo's expression eased a lot. After taking a deep look at Uchiha in the distance, he left with his men.
This Anbu ninja was his spy planted in the Anbu.
The Root itself is a training class for the Anbu. Even if the Anbu ninjas who came out of here became subordinates of the third and fourth generations, they still remained loyal to him.
Just now, this Anbu brought him some very important news.
The first news is good news. The Nine-Tails turmoil tonight has ended. Thanks to the efforts of the Fourth Hokage, the Nine-Tails has been sealed again, and the ninja who attacked Konoha is suspected to have escaped with serious injuries.
The second piece of news was bad news. In order to seal the runaway Nine-Tails, the third generation's wife had sacrificed herself, the fourth generation and his wife were also missing, and countless senior ninjas had died in this turmoil.
After hearing the news, Danzo became uncertain.
It was naturally a good thing that the Nine-Tailed Fox was sealed again, but the disappearance of the Fourth Generation couple made him feel very complicated.
In the ninja world, the disappearance of a ninja almost means death.
The death of the Fourth Hokage means that the village will hold a new election soon. Since Tsunade and Jiraiya are both unwilling to run for Hokage, his and Orochimaru's chances of becoming the Fifth Hokage will be greatly increased.
This was the best news for him.
However, losing the Fourth Hokage candidate also means that the village has lost the golden flash that the surrounding ninja villages fear, and the death of the Jinchūriki will cause the village to lose two major forces at the same time. This means that the allies who have just signed the covenant may tear up the covenant, and the Cloud Village that has just ceased fire in the border area will be more restless.
At the same time, this group of Uchiha, who are already unruly, will also have the idea of a coup.
However, these things need to be considered only after he becomes Hokage. The most important thing right now is to take this opportunity to run for the Fifth Hokage and become the Fifth Hokage of Konoha.
Danzo and the Root suddenly left, attracting the attention of the Uchiha ninjas.
They all looked at the clan leader Fugaku, hoping that Uchiha Fugaku could stand up at this time and explain to them why this happened.
Noticing the gazes of his clansmen, Fugaku felt helpless.
He didn't know what had happened. Judging from the noises in the distance, the Nine-Tailed Fox that caused the chaos tonight should have been sealed again.
No one knows what exactly happened or which ninja village attacked the village.
However, he managed to stabilize the tribe members and did not let the radical members leave the tribe. Otherwise, Danzo would definitely have a handle on him, and in that case, the Uchiha would be impeached again.
At this time, Uchiha Itachi, holding his younger brother Sasuke, appeared near the security building.
After seeing the Uchiha ninjas gathered in the open space in front of the security building, Uchiha Itachi showed a disappointed expression.
Two hours ago, he was resting in the corridor with his brother in his arms, but the village was suddenly attacked and the nine-tailed beast as tall as a mountain was seen.
On the way to the shelter with his mother and brother, he was almost hit by a huge rock.
After arriving at the shelter, he saw countless ordinary people who were injured in the disaster.
After seeing those scenes, he couldn't understand why the tribesmen had already gathered in the security building but were slow to support the village.
Do you want to preserve your strength while the village is in crisis?
Uchiha Itachi guessed so. He knew that there had always been a gap between his clansmen and the villagers. He also knew that his father and others had always had ideas about the position of Hokage and had even cursed him in secret.
But everyone in the village is obviously a companion, and they shouldn’t be divided so clearly.
The reason my father didn't become Hokage was because the Uchiha hadn't fully integrated into the village and hadn't yet achieved enough merit to convince everyone.
Thinking of this, Uchiha Itachi sighed softly, and he became even more confused about this world.
If Brother Shisui was around at this time, he would be able to clear up my doubts. Unfortunately, Shisui left the village a few days ago and went to the border to perform a reconnaissance mission.
No, Uchiha Itachi shook his head slightly.
If Brother Shisui were here, he would definitely not retreat like the other members of the tribe, and would definitely take himself to support the front line.
While Uchiha Itachi was thinking secretly, Obito, who was selecting training targets, noticed this thin and confused figure, and his eyes gradually focused on him.
There are too many Uchiha people with rich emotions, and there are many extreme members among them.
But to have this expression at this age, he is definitely an extraordinary Uchiha, and he may have the possibility of awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan in the future.
Thinking of this, Obito memorized the figure of Uchiha Itachi in his heart.
