Half Uchiha With a Trait Panel

Kiyoshi explained the reason to Mikoto.

Konoha definitely has informants in the Uchiha clan. If this spreads, the Hokage will assign someone else to investigate.

Who knows what will happen then?

They might investigate Fugaku even more secretly.

"Okay."

Mikoto said seriously.

This matter is of great importance, and she is not one to gossip.

Mikoto asked, "Kiyoshi, then how do you plan to respond?"

Hearing this, Kiyoshi said with a troubled expression, "I'm afraid I don't have any decision-making power. I believe that Fugaku-sama is not the kind of petty person who hides his strength, but if the investigation results are really like that, I..."

Kiyoshi's expression was conflicted.

Mikoto's heart skipped a beat.

Kiyoshi is not a native-born Uchiha. He had spent his childhood in the Land of Lightning and later went to ninja school to be influenced by the Will of Fire.

He might be a good person like Kagami.

This is a good thing. But he is easily objective and impartial.

If he really investigates something, he will probably report it truthfully.

With Kiyoshi's special status, no one in the clan dares to touch him.

It is clear that he is an intermediary sent by Konoha to monitor them.

Thinking of those terrible consequences, Mikoto couldn't help but frown her delicate eyebrows.

Fugaku is the clan leader, but the Uchiha clan is not just one faction.

For example, there's Setsuna, who doesn't need to listen to Fugaku's orders at all and even has a certain number of supporters.

Those clansmen who don't agree with Fugaku may take the opportunity to jump out and accuse Fugaku.

At that time, Fugaku will have to face the dual pressure from the village and the clan.

At this point, what the truth is becomes unimportant.

Mikoto thought of many possibilities at this moment, and her face turned pale.

"Kiyoshi, Fugaku is also doing it for the sake of the clan. I think he has his own difficulties."

Mikoto carefully chose her words.

The clan leader hides his strength while the clansmen fight to the death.

Even if Kiyoshi reports truthfully, it wouldn't be considered a betrayal of the Uchiha clan.

On the contrary, he might even get a positive response from some clansmen.

Those clansmen are the ones who desire stability.

Madara, who wanted to provoke war back then, was abandoned by the clansmen in this way.

Fugaku... might be the next one.

"Then I don't know."

Kiyoshi shook his head.

Mikoto continued to persuade him with a few words. Seeing that Kiyoshi didn't mean to relent, she had no choice but to leave first.

Kiyoshi sat in his original position, looking at Mikoto's plump and beautiful figure.

If his prediction is correct, Mikoto will come for a second visit soon.

The reason is simple: Danzo will definitely not trust Fugaku.

He will continue to fuel the flames of public opinion for a while.

The Uchiha's bad reputation is inseparable from Danzo.

Naruto's moniker as the Demon Fox...

Him being despised and hated by the villagers is also inseparable from Danzo.

This old dog is best at creating public opinion and rumors.

If he finds out that it is the Mangekyō Sharingan, Danzo will try to seize it.

Even if it is a secret technique, Danzo will still take it away.

If Danzo didn't have such a personality, how would he know Izanagi, which even Sasuke didn't know?

This is a special secret technique of the Uchiha clan.

Because such an exaggerated secret technique was once rampant, it led to endless infighting within the clan.

Later, Uchiha Izanami developed the corresponding Izanami, which ended the chaos of infighting.

Now, these two secret techniques are both closely guarded secrets of the Uchiha clan.

Even the Uchiha clan's own ninjas rarely know them.

"Fugaku, your weakness is the key to my further advancement."

Kiyoshi looked at the setting sun, teasing the white snake.

Fugaku, who is afraid of failure and indecisive, will only try to escape.

When Itachi had already shown signs of something being wrong and faced with accusations from other clansmen, Fugaku chose to apologize obsequiously.

Fugaku is probably still going to choose to resist the current slander because he is a very contradictory person.

He wants to use this power to become the Hokage, but he is afraid of failure.

The Uchiha's coup has always been just talk and has never actually been put into action.

"I will take good care of Mikoto."

In the courtyard, a wind arose.

The wind took away the traces, hiding Kiyoshi's playful words in the wind.

"Hiss?"

The white snake was puzzled.

Then, it narrowed its eyes and enjoyed its master's massage.

…

Fugaku's residence

"Fugaku?"

Fugaku had a gloomy face, with some unknown thoughts going on in his mind.

This attracted Mikoto's attention.

She hadn't had time to tell Fugaku that he was being investigated when Fugaku said.

"Mikoto, did Kiyoshi agree to join the Anbu?"

Seeing that it was Mikoto, Fugaku's expression improved a little.

He had just returned from the Hokage Building. The higher-ups put pressure on him, asking if he was hiding anything.

Fugaku had to pretend to be stupid, saying that he had broken through his physical limits in a fit of rage, which allowed him to kill the enemy instantly.

The higher-ups didn't continue to press him, but Fugaku knew that they would definitely investigate privately.

After all, the Uchiha clan had a record of the Mangekyō Sharingan.

The previous wielder was also very famous. He was Madara, who had joined hands with the First Hokage, Hashirama, to create Konoha.

Even the name Konoha was Madara's idea.

Mikoto said, "Kiyoshi, he said he would join the Anbu."

"Okay." Fugaku nodded.

He can talk about this matter at the secret gathering under the Naka Shrine tonight.

If an Uchiha joins the Anbu, it means they also have an informant on Konoha's side.

If there is any disturbance, they won't be too passive.

"What about the girl he likes?" Fugaku asked.

Kiyoshi's appearance can be described as handsome, and he also has that extraordinary talent. There should be many girls in the clan who would take a fancy to Kiyoshi.

"He still said he doesn't have one."

Mikoto hesitated, wondering whether to tell Fugaku what Kiyoshi had said.

Last time, she had told Fugaku that Kiyoshi had chosen her. And now, this kid Kiyoshi still said it was her.

"Forget it."

Fugaku waved his hand. He didn't mention the matter again.

Mikoto looked at Fugaku with a worried expression.

What exactly is Fugaku hiding?

Recently, the village's opinion of the Uchiha has not been very good. Especially Fugaku, who has been slandered.

There is a strong similarity to the Sakumo incident.

"Fugaku, you are being investigated."

Mikoto told Fugaku what Kiyoshi had told her.

Fugaku's face stiffened, not because of Kiyoshi, but because he was wondering if there were other people in the clan like Kiyoshi.

With the precedent of Kagami, the pro-Konoha faction is not non-existent.

"This matter still needs you to take a trip, Mikoto."

Fugaku looked at Mikoto, who was worried about him, and said.

He is a stern and rigid man, not suitable to meet Kiyoshi. That would give Kiyoshi pressure and it might backfire.

Fortunately, Kiyoshi has a good impression of gentle women like Mikoto. Boys of this age are most easily persuaded.

"I know."

Mikoto nodded, but still wanted to know what Fugaku was hiding.

Helpless, Fugaku selectively revealed some information to Mikoto and repeatedly instructed Mikoto not to say it.

If he hadn't seen Mikoto being so dedicated to him, Fugaku would never have revealed it.
