Commander Uchiha, we respect and love you!

Chapter 7 I plead guilty!

"The position of clan leader, is this what you want? Change, Konoha, are you planning a coup? Don't even think about it, I will never give you the position of clan leader!"

Uchiha Fugaku lowered his head and shook his head.

"No, Fugaku, you have no chance. Danzo is dead. Now you are just the ambitious man who has joined forces with Danzo. No matter how you explain, it is meaningless! No one will believe you!"

Uchiha Kazuto lowered his head, his scarlet Sharingans staring at Uchiha Fugaku.

"Admit your guilt, Fugaku, don't force me to do it. Think about it, you still have a child. Sasuke is a good boy, and there's Itachi. Oh, by the way, Fugaku, do you know Konoha's red-light district?"

Uchiha Kazuto spoke slowly. He tried to make Uchiha Fugaku confess his guilt by reasoning with him.

"What on earth do you want to do!!!"

Hearing what Uchiha Kazuto said, Uchiha Fugaku suddenly raised his head, revealing a pair of Sharingan, and the six magatama slowly rotated, emitting a strange light.

"What? Haha, of course, to become the new clan leader and improve the relationship between the clan and the village. Everything you did before was too bad. You were just courting death. Only I can lead the Uchiha clan to become stronger. Moreover, Fugaku, we need you now. Danzo has been killed by me. If you don't admit your guilt, then...it will be very difficult for the clan and the village. Fugaku, in your heart, you don't want to launch a coup, right?"

"Master, someone has to sacrifice. Think of it as this: for the family, for Sasuke, for your wife. Master, think about it carefully!"

Uchiha Kazuto patted Uchiha Fugaku's shoulder, then stopped. He knew that Uchiha Fugaku would understand. The matter was done and there was no hope for Uchiha Fugaku.

The current Uchiha Fugaku is no longer shit, but he is also shit.

Uchiha Kazuto actually didn't know much about politics. Before traveling through time, he was just an ordinary person, an ordinary, unremarkable person. From childhood to adulthood, he had never even been a team leader.

However, despite this, as an ordinary person, he still understands things like framing others, making up stories, confusing right and wrong, and shifting the blame.

He knew better than anyone that Uchiha Fugaku was wronged, and it was he who wronged him, but so what? Everything was for his goal. No one cared about the truth. They only cared about what they wanted to care about. Don't forget that he now had the Mangekyō Sharingan and had the support of the hawks. In addition, the dovish Uchiha did not actually want a coup. Only in this way could Uchiha Fugaku be labeled as a coup.

In fact, it doesn't matter whether Uchiha Fugaku is dead or alive. After all, Danzo is dead. It is up to him to decide whether he and Uchiha Fugaku have any conspiracy. Admittedly, there is no evidence to show that Uchiha Fugaku and Shimura Danzo have any collusion or conspiracy.

However, Uchiha Kazuto didn't care whether others believed him or not. He now had the Mangekyō Sharingan. As long as he didn't take action and relied on Uchiha Madara's initial intimidation, and as long as he hadn't fallen out with him and wanted to launch a coup, then for the sake of the village's stability, Yuan Fei and Hiruzen had to believe his reason even if they didn't.

If Uchiha Fugaku died, there would be no point in defending himself. He would have the final say in everything, and there would be no need to care about Uchiha Fugaku's opinion. After all, the merits and demerits of the dead are entirely decided by the living.

Unfortunately, Uchiha Fugaku cannot die now.

"Be thankful, Uchiha Fugaku, you have a good son!"

Uchiha Kazuto looked at Uchiha Fugaku coldly. If it weren't for Uchiha Itachi, he would have found a way to kill Uchiha Fugaku right now. Now, because Uchiha Shisui didn't die in front of Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Itachi hadn't awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan yet. He didn't know if he would have another chance in the future, but he felt that if Uchiha Fugaku died, Uchiha Itachi might be able to awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan. Uchiha Kazuto didn't want to take such a risk before he took control of the Uchiha clan, became the captain of the guard department, issued laws, and obtained the source of power.

Uchiha Fugaku lowered his head and thought, then he sadly discovered that he seemed to have no choice but to plead guilty. Those dovish Uchiha had already doubted him. Now, any truth he told might be a sophistry, a deception, and an unwillingness to admit his guilt.

Even if he committed suicide now, they would understand it as suicide out of fear of punishment.

If the hawkish members still wanted to launch a coup, if Uchiha Kazuto did not have the Mangekyō Sharingan, he would not have fallen into such a desperate situation. However, there is no such thing as "if" in this world.

Now he is no longer shit, but he is also shit, especially since Danzo Shimura is dead. The only person who can prove his innocence is dead. As for finding evidence, when the time comes, Uchiha Kazuto just needs to say a word. Their collusion has always been a verbal conversation, so isn't that the end of it?

Sasuke... Itachi... Mikoto...

Uchiha Fugaku remembered what Uchiha Kazuto had just said, and he was extremely angry. Of course he understood what this meant. It was a threat, a naked threat. Damn it! If Uchiha Kazuto didn't have the Mangekyō Sharingan...

He felt more and more sad in his heart, however, there was no way out. This was not a conspiracy of the weak to exploit the rules, but an open conspiracy of the strong, a conspiracy that even if he knew about it, there was no way to deal with it, unless he also had the Mangekyō Sharingan.

"Have you thought about it? Chief, sir!"

Uchiha Kazuto lowered his head and looked at Uchiha Fugaku.

"I... plead guilty..."

Uchiha Fugaku looked at Uchiha Kazuto and finally lowered his head helplessly. He knew that he had no way to resist Uchiha Kazuto.

"Hee! That's right! Fugaku, you made the right choice!"

Looking at Uchiha Fugaku's appearance, Uchiha Kazuto suddenly smiled, and then his expression changed.

"Uchiha Fugaku, are you and Shimura Danzo deliberately provoking conflicts between the village and the family?"

"I... yes... yes, the conflicts and disputes between the village and the family are all the conspiracy between me and Shimura Danzo..."

Uchiha Fugaku said with a pale face.

"Are you and Shimura Danzo planning to launch a coup and harm the Hokage?"

Uchiha Kazuto shouted.
