Chapter 350: Leaving Konoha!
Aoba had already finished writing the second part of The The Tale of the Utterly Gutsy Shinobi. The purpose was to add insurance to this plan.
It was perfect to release it now!
When everyone who read the book instinctively sympathized with the Uchiha Clan, then when the Uchiha Clan in reality also began to experience the same plot, people would immediately release public opinion.
At that time, reality and novels were so silly that people could not distinguish them clearly. Naturally, countless people would discuss it enthusiastically.
At the same time, it was also to put pressure on Konoha's higher-ups.
If they did not want to be a group of dirty people in reality, then they would have less of a label of rebellion!
This was because the signs of rebellion had long since disappeared when Itachi became the clan leader.
Outsiders would at most just make guesses, and there was no evidence to prove that Uchiha wanted to rebel.
In this way, the turbulent three days quickly passed.
In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi, who was thinking about countermeasures against Uchiha, asked with a headache, "What do you think Uchiha Clan is doing?"
"They don't rebuild their base or move elsewhere. They would rather live in tents these days. Those who don't know will think that the village is abusing them!"
"Also, what's going on with The Tale of the Utterly Gutsy Shinobi's second part? Do you know that because of this book, many people specially went to Uchiha's station to ask about the situation?"
"They saw that Uchiha's people didn't even have a house to shelter from the wind and rain. What would they think? Would they think that there were people who pushed Uchiha Clan aside and suppressed them?"
Sarutobi was very angry and helpless at the same time.
Although he suppressed suspicions and treated them unfairly, he definitely did it. Many people were also well aware of it.
But this kind of thing can't be said on the surface!
In the past, there was still Danzo who took the blame for him. The things that targeted Uchiha were indeed proposed by Danzo, but in the end, without his consent as the Hokage, how could it be true?
Now that Danzo was missing, there was a high chance that he had met with an accident.
He did not want to take the blame, so he could only grit his teeth and take it on himself.
If Uchiha did not handle this matter well and the same thing happened in the book, public opinion might explode!
Moreover, it was too late to stop the spread of this novel now. Danzo had used so many tough methods, but in the end, all of them had the opposite effect. This was the lesson in front of him.
"Sigh!"
Just as Sarutobi was having a headache and sighing, someone came in and asked, "Hokage-sama, Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha, Fugaku requests an audience."
"Take them to the conference room and inform all the higher-ups to come for a meeting."
"Yes, Hokage-sama..."
In the conference room, Sarutobi sat in the main seat. On his right was Konoha's higher-ups, on his left was Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Fugaku.
It was obvious that Fugaku had no other choice but to believe in Itachi's plan.
This time, apart from needing him to come over, he was also here to help Itachi.
"This is the report of the loss that was compiled after that day. Clan Head Itachi can take a look."
After taking it, Itachi casually glanced at it and nodded, "No matter how many losses, my Uchiha Clan will bear all of them."
Sarutobi also nodded indifferently. Although many houses were destroyed, there were no casualties, so this bit of money was nothing to Uchiha Clan.
Next was the main event of today!
"That day, Clan Head Itachi said that he had something important to discuss. What is it?"
At this point, Itachi was a little nervous, but he immediately calmed down and said seriously,
"The ancestor of my Uchiha Clan, Madara, and First Hokage-sama, created Konoha together. But for many years, we, Uchiha, admit that we have not done anything wrong to the village, but I have suffered many unfair treatment and targeted for no reason."
Listening to Itachi's forceful explanation, Sarutobi and all the higher-ups' expressions were not very natural.
There was, there was, there was no, there was no.
Among the things that Uchiha had done, what was not involved in their decision making?
Now that it was said by a brat on the surface, it would be strange if their expressions were good!
What was he doing?
Was he expressing his dissatisfaction with the village?
That's right, it really was!contemporary romance
After Itachi explained all the unfair treatment that their clan had received, his eyes immediately became extremely sharp.
"So I am now formally applying to Hokage-sama, as the head of the Uchiha Clan, for secession from Konoha!"
"Since Konoha can't tolerate us, then please let us go!"
"Ridiculous!"
"How audacious!"
"What do you, Uchiha, think of Konoha? He can come and go as he pleases!"
"This is a public rebellion! It is a capital offense, you know!"
"I suggest that we immediately send people to capture these two people and then completely purge Uchiha Clan!"
Before Sarutobi could say anything, Koharu and the other higher-ups of Konoha turned to sleep. They almost pointed at Itachi and Fugaku's noses and cursed!
Itachi could still endure the rest and did not care about it. However, when Koharu said that he wanted to take him and Fugaku down and completely clean up their clan, his eyes immediately turned extremely cold.
As expected, what Aoba said was right. Konoha's right center had already decayed.
The ones who should be cleaned are not us, but the trash in front of us who only know how to clamor all day!
"Enough! All of you shut up!"
Sarutobi slammed the table angrily, immediately suppressing the curses of the others.
Taking down Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Fugaku on the spot?
How?
Who can do it!
Was it because they didn't die fast enough at this time?
If there was a conflict here, everyone except him would die!
How stupid was he to say such stupid words in front of the other party?
Sarutobi immediately felt very tired. With such a group of pig-like teammates, other than making things worse, there was no other help.
Although he was also very shocked by what Itachi had just said, but after thinking about it, since the other party had chosen to use the method of negotiation to take the initiative to say his purpose, it proved that Uchiha Clan actually did not want to start a rebellion.
At least after Itachi became the clan head, he didn't want to see the scene of his clansmen fighting with the villagers.
This meant that as long as they could continue to talk, the worst situation would not happen.
It could be considered a blessing in misfortune.
In the cold eyes of Sarutobi, although Konoha's higher-ups were still very angry, they also calmed down. They knew that it was unrealistic to start a war with Uchiha. Even if they really destroyed Uchiha Clan, it would cause Konoha's vitality to be greatly injured. Then, they would give the other villages that were eyeing them a chance to take advantage of it.
But they really couldn't swallow this!
They were usually in high positions and used to ordering around.
Want to leave Konoha?
Dream on!
