Konoha: Uchiha's Gorgeous Rebellion

Just as Uchiha Yuan finished checking the experimental logs of Senju Nawase's internal organs and Hashirama's cells, a team of Uchiha arrived outside the Hokage Building.

In a meeting room in the Hokage building.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sat cross-legged at the first seat, while the two advisory elders, Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En, sat on one side of the room.

Below them sat five Uchiha including Uchiha Fugaku.

"Fugaku, are you here to see me because of Uchiha Yuan's murder of three Anbu?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

"Yes, Third-generation Lord, the family is very concerned about Yuan."

Uchiha Fuyue said.

"Humph, Uchiha Yuan killed the village's Anbu, this act is undoubtedly treason; do you, the Uchiha clan, still want to protect him!"

Utane Koharu looked at Uchiha Fugaku with a sullen look on her face and said coldly.

"The Uchiha clan in charge of the security team should understand that Uchiha Yuan has committed a serious crime. If you want to excuse Uchiha Yuan, you are breaking the law knowingly."

Mizuto Menyan said lightly.

"Fugaku, I understand your feelings; Uchiha Yuan is a rare genius, and he also made great contributions to the village in this ninja world war.

He has the potential to become a powerful ninja that supports Konoha in the future, but these are not reasons for him to be bold and unscrupulous. This time he committed a serious crime that the village cannot tolerate.

I hope that you, the Uchiha clan, can understand that the village must severely punish him."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

"Sir, anyone in Konoha Village who commits a crime must be punished, and our Uchiha clan is no exception."

Uchiha Fuyue said.

"Fugaku, I am very pleased that you can say this."

A smile appeared on Sarutobi Hiruzen's old face, but Uchiha Fugaku's next words made his smile disappear immediately.

"Sir Sandaime, regarding the killing of three village Anbu by Yuan, we have a different view from the village. We believe that Yuan is not at fault.

Instead, we believe that the village needs to give us Uchiha an explanation."

"what!"

"Insanity!"

"Do you Uchiha think you are above the village?!"

Upon hearing this, Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En's faces suddenly changed and they started to shout angrily.

Sarutobi Hiruzen stared at Uchiha Fugaku with his cloudy eyes. He frowned and said after a moment of silence, "Fugaku, do you Uchiha want to confront the village?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became extremely tense and depressing.

As long as Uchiha Fugaku's answer is wrong, the conflict between Uchiha and Konoha will naturally become apparent.

Feeling the tense atmosphere in the room, the four Uchiha sitting behind Uchiha Fugaku immediately stood up and took a defensive stance.

At the same time, violent chakra fluctuations suddenly appeared around the room, and fierce murderous intent locked onto Uchiha Fugaku and others.

These are the Anbu ninjas who are guarding the Hokage, and they are also ready to go.

Uchiha Fugaku raised his right hand, signaling the four Uchiha guards behind him to let down their guard.

Then, he said calmly to Sarutobi Hiruzen, “Sir, the Uchiha clan loves Konoha as much as anyone else in the village and has no intention of confronting the village.

The reason why I think Yuan is innocent is that in this incident, Yuan led the security team on a normal patrol in the village, but was suddenly attacked by Anbu ninja.

The first to attack in this incident were the Anbu ninjas.

It was an act of rebellion for the village's ninja to attack the guard.

"Sir, the Anbu ninjas suddenly attacked the captain of the security team. Is this the village's instruction?"

As Uchiha Fugaku finished speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen and the other two immediately showed looks of surprise.

The three of them had been distracted by Uchiha Yuan's killing of the Anbu ninja, and never noticed that the Anbu ninja attacked Uchiha Yuan first.

In fact, they never felt that the Anbu ninjas were wrong; they were the Anbu who monitored and protected the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and as long as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was threatened, they had the right to kill anyone who posed a threat.

Only now, reminded by Uchiha Fugaku's words, did the three realize that from Uchiha Yuan's perspective, he was also right in this incident.

Only they know that Uzumaki Naruto is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and an important asset of Konoha; but in the eyes of other people in the village, Uzumaki Naruto is a disgusting fox demon.

Especially since Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that the meeting between Uchiha Yuan and Naruto was indeed a coincidence.

For a moment, the room fell into silence; and the oppressive and tense atmosphere began to slowly dissipate.

Utane Koharu and Mito Kado En both frowned and remained silent. They could not expose Naruto's identity as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. As for the fact that the Anbu ninja attacked Uchiha Furu first, the Uchiha would most likely think that the village sent people to attack and kill Uchiha Furu because they were dissatisfied with him.

After all, Uchiha Yuan's previous actions did make the Konoha high-level officials very angry, and it was not an exaggeration to regard him as a thorn in their eyes.

Sarutobi Hiruzen broke the silence and said, "Fugaku, Uchiha is the most important pillar of Konoha, and the attack on Uchiha Yuan by Anbu was an accident.

I am very sorry for this accident."

"It turned out to be an accident."

Fugaku smiled faintly, and continued, "You don't have to apologize, Third-sama. The accidents that happened this time were not what we wanted to see. We, the Uchiha clan, are very sorry for the deaths of the three Anbu."

"I hope this kind of accident won't happen again in the future. Since it was an accident, Uchiha Yuan will be back soon."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

"Thank you, Sandaime-sama."

Uchiha Fugaku said with a smile.

Both parties tacitly agreed not to mention Uzumaki Naruto, the most important person who caused this incident.

As for Uzumaki Naruto, even if Fugaku guessed that he was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, he pretended not to know and stayed away from him.

Because he knew very well that after the Night of the Nine-Tails, the village was most afraid of Uchiha having contact with the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

After Uchiha Fugaku said goodbye and left, the room fell into silence. Sarutobi Hiruzen and the other two all looked thoughtful.

After a while, with a sigh, Mitomon Yan said: "Huruzen, Uchiha Fugaku may have already noticed Naruto's identity as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."

"The identity of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is the village's top secret. Fugaku is a smart man, and even if he finds out, he won't make it public."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

"What a cunning Uchiha, I didn't expect them to excuse Uchiha Yuan from this angle.

It's a pity that this opportunity was wasted. Danzo will surely be very angry if he finds out."

Xiaochun said after turning to bed.

"This incident was indeed an accident. The Anbu's investigation also confirmed that Naruto's encounter with Uchiha Yuan was a chance encounter."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

After a pause, his expression suddenly turned gloomy, and he said, "What I didn't expect was that Uchiha Yuan actually dared to kill the Anbu."

"Yes, Uchiha Yuan's behavior this time may greatly encourage the fighting faction in the Uchiha clan."

Mizuto Menyan said with some concern.

"Don't worry, the entire situation within the Uchiha clan is under my control."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said as he stared ahead with his eyes shining coldly.
