Naruto: The Rise Of Uchiha

It Can't Stop It!!!

After learning the news from the Anbu, the Third Hokage slumped in his office chair.

Many people have already heard the news, and many people are willing to disobey orders and spread the news, so the news is not only not blocked, but spreads more and more.

This matter can't be stopped!

He can't order the Anbu to arrest all those who know the news.

Not to mention that there are not so many places to detain people, if he really does so, it will inevitably arouse public anger and make things more and more out of control.

"Uchiha Fugaku."

He gritted his teeth and his voice was cold.

He could imagine that after this, his reputation in the village would fall to the bottom.

The perfect image that he spent decades to build up would also be unsustainable.

All this is thanks to Uchiha Fugaku.

He really wanted to lead the Anbu out in full force, kill Uchiha Fugaku, and destroy the Uchiha family.

But he couldn't do it.

It's not because he was worried about the bad influence, but because he couldn't do it.

With the power he has now, he is no longer a match for Uchiha Fugaku and the Uchiha clan.

In the past year, the power he has in his hands has shrunk too much.

With the deaths of Shimura Danzo, Utatane Koharu, and Mitokado Homura, the power he has in his hands has shrunk one after another.

On the other hand, as Uchiha Fugaku showed his absolute strength, the strength of the Uchiha clan has greatly increased.

He felt powerless.

In this battle with the Uchiha clan, he was already at an absolute disadvantage.

...

A few days later, in Nanga Shrine.

Uchiha Fugaku, three elders, and Uchiha Yakumi, four elite jonin, gathered.

"Refreshing, really refreshing!"

The elder Uchiha Setsuna laughed.

Over the years, the Uchiha clan has been suppressed by the Third Hokage.

He was worried about the future of the clan and was always in a depressed mood.

This was the first time he felt so refreshed.

"Haha, it's really refreshing!"

The third elder Uchiha Tsukasa also laughed.

"Third Hokage, you have come to this day?"

The second elder Uchiha Mamoru tried to hold back his laughter, but he was obviously very happy.

"The news that Uzumaki Naruto is the orphan of the Fourth Hokage has almost spread throughout the village. The Third Hokage is now notorious for persecuting the orphan of the Fourth Hokage."

"Moreover, there are voices in the village calling for the Third Hokage to abdicate."

Uchiha Yakumi said with a smile.

"That's the effect we want."

Uchiha Fugaku smiled.

With his current strength, it is not difficult to assassinate the Third Hokage.

The reason why he is not in a hurry to get rid of the Third Hokage, in addition to the greater goal of winning the position of Hokage, is to discredit the Third Hokage and vent the resentment of the Uchiha family that has been suppressed over the years.

"There are not too many voices asking the Third Hokage to abdicate now, but if it continues like this, there will definitely be a lot of voices asking the Third Hokage to abdicate in the village."

"By then, the Third Hokage will probably be the first Hokage in Konoha's history to be forced to abdicate."

Uchiha Xing said expectantly.

"If he becomes the first Hokage to be forced to abdicate, it will probably be more painful than killing the Third Hokage."

Uchiha Min also had an expectant look on his face.

"With the Third Hokage's thick skin, it may be difficult to force him to abdicate voluntarily."

Uchiha Atsuko shook her head. She didn't think the Third Hokage would voluntarily abdicate and give up the power of the village.

"When that time comes, he will have to abdicate even if he doesn't want to."

Uchiha Fugaku sneered and looked at the second elder Uchiha Mamoru.

"Second elder, tomorrow you leave Konoha and visit the Iwai family and several other families that are friendly with the Uchiha family."

"Visit these families? Are you planning to use these families to lobby the Daimyo?"

The second elder Uchiha Mamoru immediately understood Uchiha Fugaku's plan.

"Yes, these families are quite influential in the government system of the Land of Fire. With the notorious reputation of the Third Hokage, they should be able to persuade the Daimyo to select a new Hokage."

Uchiha Fugaku nodded.

"But I'm afraid the Third Hokage won't listen."

Uchiha Atsuko frowned.

The status of the Daimyo in each country has always been in a rather embarrassing situation.

In name, they are the leaders of their respective countries, the highest authority in their respective countries, and have the right to manage everything in the country.

But in fact, almost 90% of the ninja power of a country is in the hands of the village Kage, and the village Kage is the most powerful person in the country.

Therefore, many of the Daimyo's appointments and dismissals are useless in the Shinobi Village.

"Under normal circumstances, they will naturally not obey, but in this situation, the Daimyo's appointment and dismissal is the last straw that breaks the camel's back."

Uchiha Fugaku said with a smile.

"The clan leader is right, the Daimyo's appointment and dismissal is the last straw that breaks the camel's back."

The second elder Uchiha Mamoru nodded in agreement.

There were already voices in the village calling for the Third Hokage to abdicate. Facing such voices, the Third Hokage could still ignore them.

But facing the appointment and dismissal from the Daimyo, the Third Hokage could not ignore it.

"But is there a way to convince the Daimyo?"

Uchiha Xing frowned.

"It's not just us who are dissatisfied with the Third Hokage. The Daimyo is the ruler of a country, but under the suppression of the Third Hokage, he is in name only and has long been full of resentment towards the Third Hokage."

"As long as someone instigates and sees the possibility of success, the Daimyo will definitely be happy to give the Third Hokage a final blow."

Uchiha Fugaku said with a smile.

"That's right. The resentment that the Daimyo has accumulated over the years is definitely no less than that of the Uchiha clan."

The second elder Uchiha Mamoru nodded.

"It seems that there is a great possibility of forcing the Third Hokage to abdicate."

Several people looked expectantly, expecting to force the Third Hokage to abdicate and then start the election of the Fifth Hokage.

"Clan leader, if you can get the support of the Daimyo, it will be much smoother."

The first elder Uchiha Setsuna said.

"That's right, so this time the second elder left the village, in addition to persuading the Daimyo to dismiss the Third Hokage, it would be best to persuade the Daimyo to support me in ascending the position of Hokage."

Uchiha Fugaku nodded.

"It may not be easy to persuade him?"

The second elder Uchiha Mamoru thought.

Uchiha Fugaku pondered for a moment, then said.

"So, tell the Daimyo that if I ascend to the position of Hokage, I will not interfere in anything other than the affairs of the village."

What he wanted was the position of Hokage, and what he wanted to do was to control the powerful power of Konoha Ninja Village in his own hands.

As for the politicians of the Land of Fire outside the village, he thought that professional matters should be left to professionals, and he had no intention of interfering.

The Land of Fire Daimyo was able to manage the Land of Fire in an orderly manner, and he obviously had some ability.

"If that's the case, it's very likely that we can convince the Daimyo."

The second elder Uchiha Mamoru nodded.

The Daimyo was most afraid of the Hokage interfering with the politicians of the Land of Fire. On the condition of not interfering with the politicians, we should be able to convince the Daimyo.
