Konoha: Uchiha Shisui's Advisor Alliance

Chapter 79 Replacing Fugaku
"Ok?"

The third generation opened his eyes, looked over, and immediately stepped forward and said, "Tell me quickly!"

"Patriarch Fugaku has promised me that as long as I can resolve this problem within ten days, he will give up the coup."

Ten days!

The third generation's expression changed, he frowned and began to think about how to solve the problem.

What issues are involved in this incident?
The Uchiha clan does not have enough income, the villagers are too exclusive, and due to rising prices, the villagers are becoming more and more angry and have been directed at the police department. There is also mutual distrust between the internal and senior management.

These problems are old and new, and it is no exaggeration to say that they are historical relics.

It would be easy to give the Third Generation some temporary relief. He could draw funds from other departments to compensate the Uchiha, and then force those people to shut up.

In this way, there may be some results within ten days, but it cannot ease the conflict for a long time, and a fierce backlash may occur within half a month.

Thinking of this, the Sandai's face became uglier. He looked at Shisui and said, "It may be difficult to solve the problem within ten days. Can you discuss it with Fugaku and ask him to give the village more time?"

"Patriarch Fugaku's attitude is very firm. I begged the tribe members for these ten days."

Shisui had a sad expression and shook his head slowly, seeming a little desperate.

Yes, the Uchiha clan has never made a decision so quickly in previous meetings. Since Fugaku is so decisive, he must have made up his mind.

The situation has become clear. He now has only two choices, either to satisfy the Uchiha's appetite within ten days, or to make full preparations to quell the rebellion within ten days, and then take the initiative to kill the Uchiha's high-ranking officials.

"We have ten days to try our best to meet their demands, but if we can't avoid it when the day comes, the village will probably be destroyed by civil strife!"

The more he thought about the situation in the village and the north, the more headache he had.

If civil strife breaks out in the Uchiha Kingdom at this time, the Land of Lightning will inevitably invade on a large scale. Not to mention the Land of Water, the two poor guys, the Land of Earth and the Land of Wind, will definitely not miss this opportunity, and will come to take a bite even if they are on crutches.

"if."

Listening to the Sandai's almost dejected words, Shisui lowered his head with a troubled expression and spoke in a low voice.

As if grasping the last straw, Sandai couldn't help but ask, "What if?"

"If I can replace Chief Fujigaku as the new chief, and the village compensates the tribesmen, perhaps I can prevent a coup from happening."

Replace Fugaku?

The Sandai's eyes widened, he looked at Shisui in surprise, his brain working wildly.

It's not that he doesn't want to support Shisui, it's just too difficult, and this is Uchiha's internal affairs. If he interferes, more than one Uchiha will stand up.

But if we don't do this, Konoha will be finished!
"Are you sure?"

Without much hesitation, the third generation asked softly.

"If you can help me, I'm willing to try my best for Konoha."

Shisui pondered for a moment, then looked up at the Sandaime and nodded heavily in response.

Shisui can get Fugaku to delay his coup, and perhaps there is really hope of replacing him.

The Sandai was moved. He took a deep breath, patted Shisui's shoulder and said in a deep voice: "I will fully support you, but I cannot be exposed, otherwise the village will be in greater turmoil."

"I understand. Thank you, Master Sandaime!"

The Sandai helped Shisui up, his expression sincere, "The village owes you this."

He knew very well that if this was discovered, Shisui would surely die.

"No, everything is for Konoha and for Uchiha." Shisui looked serious, as if he had already realized that he was going to die.

The Sandaime heaved a sigh of relief and promised, "Please, Shisui, as long as we buy some more time, the village will treat the Uchiha clan well in the future."

After getting the promise, the two discussed the details again. The Sandai even paid out of his own pocket to have someone go back to the Sarutobi clan's territory to get 5 million taels to give to Shisui.

"The future of Konoha depends on you."

Taking the burden from the Sandai, Shisui nodded heavily and left.

After Shisui left, the Third Hokage hesitated for a moment but still did not call the three assistants. He knew that if Danzo knew that he guessed correctly, the matter would only become more complicated.

"Remove all the sentries deployed near the Uchiha clan's territory, and have Kakashi lead the team to increase surveillance a little further away. Any large-scale gatherings must be reported promptly!"

"Yes!"

"Go tell Shinnosuke to strengthen the guards in the clan territory during this period, and notify Yuuki to recall the Anbu who are on vacation one after another, and don't make any big moves."

"Yes!"

"Also, arrange for Uchiha Yan and the others to lead the jonin to go to the Rain Country to gather intelligence."

"Yes!"

The third generation paced back and forth in the office, issuing many instructions one after another. The entire Konoha Anbu was quietly operating under his orders.

And Shisui returned home with the promise of three generations.

"The third generation has already agreed. He will help me as much as possible in secret."

It was already late at night. In the past, Sima Yi would not have agreed to let Shisui meet the Third Generation at this time, but the entire Uchiha top leadership was aware of this matter, so there was no need to avoid suspicion.

"That's great. I have also privately persuaded some people from the police department. Now with the help of the Third Generation, Shisui's hope of becoming the clan leader is a little greater!"

Hui has not left yet. He has been waiting in the study with Sima Yi until now. Hearing this, he nodded excitedly.

"With Grandpa's arrangement, I believe that becoming the clan leader will not be a problem, but can we make the clan members give up the idea of ​​a coup within ten days?"

What Shisui is more worried about is that he will not be able to solve this problem. Even if he becomes the clan leader, he will still not be able to suppress the rebelliousness of his clan members.

Sima Yi had already thought about this problem. He smiled calmly and said frankly: "Let alone ten days, even ten months I can't completely solve the root cause of the problem."

"what?"

When these words were spoken, both of them were stunned, and Hui's face was visibly panicked.

Shisui reacted quickly and guessed, "If it can't be completely solved, then it can be temporarily relieved?"

"Yes, that's right. The problems between the village and the Uchiha are deep-rooted. It will take time to completely eliminate them. However, it is not difficult to temporarily suppress the conflicts and meet the needs of all parties to maintain peace for a few months.

As for the coup d'état among the tribesmen, you don't need to worry about it, just wait and see."

Sima Yi took out a few letters from the table and explained, "These were secretly sent by several elders. These two are from the first and second elders. You can read them first."

Shisui was puzzled, opened it casually and flipped through it, then a look of surprise appeared on his face.

The Great Elder has a close secret relationship with Shisui, and the words in the letter are quite direct, advising him to replace Fugaku immediately, and that the Uchiha must not launch a coup now.

The second elder was a little more tactful. He simply stated his consistent position, explained the pros and cons and expressed his strong support for him to resolve the conflict between the family and the village.

Then he opened the letters from other elders. No matter whether they were from the first elder or the second elder, their opinions were surprisingly consistent. They all hoped that he could solve the problem so that the Uchiha would still be the Uchiha of Konoha.

The huge difference between the attitudes of the people in the letter and the confrontation at the clan meeting made Shisui a little confused.

“It’s strange that during the day they
Oh~ It seems that I misunderstood them. The elders are actually wholeheartedly for Konoha and Uchiha!" Shisui looked happy, as if he had suddenly realized something.

Hui's mouth twitched and he couldn't help rolling his eyes. He knew something about the content of the letter, but in his opinion, some of these people did not consider the overall situation. They were not forced to the point of a coup, so they became cowardly after calming down.

After all, no matter how much prices rise, it will not affect them, especially those people in the police department. Once they put on the clothes, which stubborn merchant would dare to refuse to do business with them?

As for the rumors in the village, they have been hearing them for years, and it is only recently that there have been more conflicts among villagers that have caused them some trouble.

"Hahaha, I guess so. They are the ones who know the strength of the tribe best. It's a good thing to have an accurate understanding."

Sima Yi responded with a smile, and then said: "I have already made plans for the general clansmen and Konoha, but there is one person that I am a little unsure about, and I still need to test him a little."

Shisui nodded and immediately said, "Grandpa, you are talking about Chief Fugaku, right?"

Speaking of Fugaku, Teru fell silent for a rare moment. He had always hated the other party's constant tolerance, but when Fugaku spoke frankly about the coup, he was extremely frightened, and his usual dissatisfaction and tyranny subsided in an instant.

"His reaction is irrational, there may be changes. Let's go and test it tomorrow."

"I understand, Grandpa."

The next day, in the backyard of Fugaku's house.

Itachi walked from the living room to the backyard and saw Fugaku feeding the fish, and Uchiha Tetsuka half-kneeling in the yard with his head lowered.

Tiehuo seemed to be saying something, but stopped after noticing Itachi, but his expression looked a little ugly.

"Dad, Brother Shisui is here."

Itachi looked at Fugaku's back with complex emotions flashing in his eyes.

"Let him in."

Fugaku continued to feed the pond without even turning his head.

Itachi nodded and left. A moment later, Shisui came to Tetsuka's side and saluted, "Master Clan Leader."

"You came to me at this time. Have you solved the problem of the tribe?"

"Not yet. The purpose of my trip is to seek the help of the clan leader."

"Oh?"

Fugaku looked at Shisui in confusion, and Tetsuka also turned his head to look.

"Tell me."

"In order to resolve the conflict between my family and the villagers, I hope to join the police department and borrow everyone's strength."

After these words were spoken, Fugaku's hand paused slightly, and he looked at Shisui and fell into silence.

Tiehuo widened his eyes and looked back and forth between the two of them.

After a long while, Fugaku said, "I see. Well, since it's for the sake of the family, then from now on, Tiehuo will be your deputy."

"Clan leader?"

Tetsuka couldn't believe his ears, making him Shisui's deputy meant that Shisui would replace him as the captain of the first squad of the police force.

If he was asked to monitor Shisui, why should he be given such great convenience?

Tiehuo was a little confused. Was it because he didn't express it clearly enough at the beginning?

Shisui was also stunned, he didn't expect Fugaku to let him do it all at once, this trust made him feel relieved but also made him feel extremely guilty.

"Thank you, Chief. I will not let you down and will resolve this issue as soon as possible!"

After saying that, Shisui didn't want to stay here for long and left in a hurry.

Seeing Shisui leaving, Tiehuo could no longer suppress his doubts and immediately reminded him: "The rumor that Shisui wants to become the clan leader has spread to every corner of the clan. He may have other intentions in joining the police department now."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Fugaku, who said calmly: "Don't worry about it, just cooperate with him on the matters of the police department, I will handle the rest."

Why are you so confident?
Tetsuka Hisahisa had already noticed the change in people's hearts in the police department, and he didn't understand why Fugaku remained so calm.

But since the other party had already said so, he had no choice but to give up.

"Yes."

As soon as Tetsuka walked out of Fugaku's house, he saw Shisui standing outside the door waiting for him.

"Captain Shisui."

Facing Shisui, Tiehuo's feelings were extremely complicated, including admiration, anger, and a little guilt.

"I'm going to the police department now. Brother Tiehuo, do you want to come with me?"

At this moment, Shisui has calmed down and strengthened his belief. He wants to gain as much strength as possible.

"Ok."

The two crossed the street without saying a word, and after arriving at the police department and completing the formalities, Shisui immediately called everyone together and issued the following orders in the name of the captain of the first team.

1. Arrest some of the merchants who recently refused to trade with the Uchiha clan on the grounds of hoarding goods, disrupting the market, and undermining Konoha's internal stability.

Second, all members of the police department will be recalled on the grounds of rectification. They will not have to patrol the streets for seven days and will only be retained for interrogation and custody tasks.

3. During the rectification period, temporary patrol missions will be issued to Konoha ninjas in the name of the Police Department. Patrol ninjas need to strictly follow Konoha laws to arrest anyone who undermines Konoha's stability.

Tiehuo felt a headache looking at the three orders. Not to mention the problems with the orders themselves, Shisui was only the captain of a team, so how to convince the other teams to agree was a problem.

However.
Uchiha Yashiro: "Team Two has no objection."

Uchiha Yangzhe: "Team Three has no objection."

Uchiha Inahiro: "I have no objection either."

"?"

Tetsuka looked at the men in surprise, and Inahiro agreed that he could understand, after all, Shisui was also sent by clan leader Fugaku, so why did the other two agree so easily?

Haven’t they always supported the Great Elder’s ideas?
"Brother Tiehuo, you will still lead the first team. Set out immediately to arrest the vendors. I need to go to the Hokage Building to submit a mission commission."

Shisui took out a list and added, "The list contains the information of those people. You can arrest them according to the list. Remember to read out the charges when you arrest them."

After taking the list, Tiehuo took a glance and found that there were only more than 20 people on it, and they were distributed on various streets, which was obviously inconsistent with the situation that a large number of people were concentrated outside the Uchiha clan's territory.

Of course, based on his understanding of Shisui, he believed that the people above would definitely not be wronged.

Although he still had doubts in his heart, he felt inexplicably relieved after seeing Shisui's measured, confident and calm attitude, so he replied softly, "Yes."
