Naruto: Starting with the power of two systems

"Even so, this has led to these villagers being more afraid of our people than ever before."

"Why are they so afraid of our Uchiha clan? As long as they don't cause trouble, our Uchiha clan won't do anything to them."

He felt that the gap between the Uchiha clan and the village had widened even further, making it even harder for them to integrate into the village than before.

Ryosuke hadn't expected things to turn out this way; perhaps it really was time to change the image of the Uchiha clan.

Fugaku looked at Ryosuke, who was deep in thought.

"Ryosuke, do you have any ideas? How can we help our clan rise to the top?"

Ryosuke thought for a moment and then spoke slowly.

"A method is certainly necessary, but it depends on whether the family is willing to accept it?"

Fugaku asked hurriedly.

"Ryosuke, why don't you tell us first, what exactly is the price?"

Ryosuke then voiced his thoughts.

"In fact, the reason why the villagers and clans are dissatisfied with our Uchiha clan is because of the power of the guards."

"When the Second Hokage entrusted the guard to our Uchiha clan, he probably didn't have good intentions."

"The guards have too much power, but they do things that offend people."

"To be honest, although our Uchiha clan is in charge of the guard, the decisions we make are not convincing to everyone."

"Ultimately, it's because our Uchiha clan simply cannot represent the entire village."

"After all, Konoha Village is no longer what it used to be. It not only has many commoner ninjas, but also large and small clans."

Fugaku understood what the other party meant and expressed his deep agreement.

Indeed, the guards always offend people, and he couldn't help but wonder.

"So, Ryosuke, you don't mean to ask the Uchiha clan to abandon the guard, do you?"

Unexpectedly, Danzo and the Third Hokage's meticulously planned scheme to seize power from the Uchiha Guard was easily abandoned by Ryosuke.

However, the guards have a great deal of authority; they can even judge the chief advisor. In terms of power, they are in no way inferior to the Third Hokage, provided that they are strong enough.

If Ryosuke chooses to give up, then he will follow him; he trusts Ryosuke's judgment.

Although the clansmen may find it hard to accept, they have no choice but to accept it, because Uchiha Ryosuke represents what is right.

Ryosuke, however, remained speechless.

"I never said I was going to give up the guard. Power is indeed a good thing, and it is absolutely impossible to completely give it up, otherwise it will be inconvenient to do things."

“But we can bring others in and distribute the power. Then the guard will not only belong to our Uchiha clan, but to the entire village.”

"The verdict made at that time should not have been met with dissatisfaction."

Fugaku finally understood: Ryosuke meant to invite other clans to join the guard force, or that ordinary ninjas could also join the village's guard force.

Couldn't help but ask.

"But with so many people coming in all at once, power is undoubtedly divided up a lot. Could these families even unite and directly seize the original power of the Uchiha clan?"

Ryosuke said nonchalantly.

"Now that the decision has been made to recruit talent, the necessary rights should naturally be granted."

"Although this will indeed divide up a lot of power, as long as our Uchiha clan is strong enough, no one can replace our Uchiha clan's central position in the guard."

"In other words, my Uchiha clan is the true leader of the guard, and that will never change."

Fugaku agreed with Ryosuke's opinion that power is indeed based on force.

Since the Uchiha clan's fists are bigger, they will always be at the center of the guard.

Ryosuke's method is indeed effective, and if implemented, it will completely change the image of the Uchiha clan.

If the villagers, ninjas, and clans have no more complaints about the Uchiha clan.

Therefore, it would be even easier and more natural for the Uchiha clan to rise to power, without provoking much opposition or even resistance.

Fugaku continued to ask.

"Ryosuke, but which families should we invite?"

Chapter 146 Invitation

Regarding Fugaku's question, Ryosuke naturally had a list of families to invite, and slowly replied.

"The Hyuga clan in the village possesses the Byakugan bloodline limit. Such a clan should be recruited into our guard team and given the position of vice-captain."

Fugaku wholeheartedly agreed, noting that the family had spoken up for itself at this clan head meeting.

They were considered a large clan in Konoha Village.

On the battlefield, the Byakugan, a bloodline limit, is even more strategically valuable than the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan.

Although their top-tier strength is somewhat lacking, they are undoubtedly a formidable force, and joining them would make the guards' authority even more convincing.

"I agree, is there anything else?"

Ryosuke said with a smile at this moment.

"The Ino-Shika-Cho trio and the Inuzuka family should also be invited."

Fugaku's expression changed upon hearing this. These four families were the families that had been loyal supporters of the Third Hokage.

"Ryosuke, this isn't a good idea."

Ryosuke, however, laughed.

“It’s alright. I know they are all supporters of the Third Hokage, so we should try to get them involved.”

"These people have all joined my Uchiha clan's guard force. I wonder what the Third Hokage will think."

"Team leader, there's no need to worry about these people causing trouble after they come in. I'll say it again: as long as the Uchiha clan is strong enough, it will not shake the Uchiha clan's central position."

Fugaku understood.

Ryosuke's move was ruthless; he actually thought of poaching the Third Hokage's man.

If we incorporate them into the guard system, wouldn't that be undermining the support base of the Third Hokage?

Without the support of these people, the Third Hokage was like someone without his own power, all alone. As the Uchiha clan grew stronger in the future, he would naturally be able to become the Hokage.

Ryosuke's move was truly brilliant.

Of course, there are still some minor issues.

"Ryosuke, do you think these supporters of the Third Hokage would join the guard? That would be tantamount to betraying the Third Hokage. There shouldn't be anyone that stupid."

Ryosuke, however, laughed.

"There must be no one in this world who would be so foolish as to refuse a right that is offered to them."

Fugaku nodded.

That's true. If one were to gain control of the guards, not only would they wield real power, but they could also enhance their family's strength, reputation, and status.

This is something that cannot be refused.

This is a real benefit, and of course, it's also a genuine attempt to sow discord between the Third Hokage and these clans.

Ryosuke then sneered.

"Even if they are really stupid and refuse to accept it, I will definitely make them accept it."

Fugaku had already realized that the plan had succeeded.

Once Ryosuke decides to do something, these people probably can't resist and can only accept it.

That's just like Ryosuke's style.

"Ryosuke, just as you said, I will send someone to send invitations to the heads of the five clans and invite them to the Uchiha clan territory."

"Of course, this meeting will require your presence. What do you think?"

"of course."

After responding to Fugaku, Ryosuke drank the tea in his cup in one gulp.

"Chieftain, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."

"it is good"

Fugaku did not try to persuade the other party to stay.

"I will have someone deliver the tea to your home later."

Ryosuke responded with a shout and left.

He should go outside and get some fresh air.

After Ryosuke left, Fugaku ordered five invitation letters to be written and sent to the designated five clan territories.

The Hyuga clan was the first to receive an invitation from the Uchiha clan, leaving Hyuga Hiashi looking puzzled.

Did they say what it was about?

The Uchiha clansman who handed over the invitation shook his head and said.
