However, once Uchiha Ara continues to flex his muscles and display his power, the momentum he has just built up will crumble in an instant!

Do not,

To be precise, it has reached the brink of collapse.

Because he heard it.

I heard the ninjas around me whispering amongst themselves, their voices barely audible.

Is the Uchiha clan about to rise again?

"With Uchiha Ara in this generation, who among the various clans and families can maintain a balance of power and confront him directly?"

"I'm afraid even the weapon that originated from Sunagakure won't work!"

These whispers made Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart flutter slightly, and he was suddenly jolted awake by a hint of fear.

If you yourself are afraid of those evil eyes and cannot look them in the eye, how can you expect those small clans and ordinary ninjas to do the same?

The way to eliminate fear is to face it!

The gaze that had been deliberately avoided returned at this moment, and the wandering eyes met those scarlet pupils again.

Based on the intelligence gathered and the information relayed by the Akatsuki organization,

The abilities possessed by the Mangekyou Sharingan are not all the same, but rather derived from one's own strengths, obsessions, and will.

Most importantly, compared to his clansmen Shisui and Itachi, Uchiha Ara was not skilled in genjutsu.

Therefore, the possibility of it possessing both the abilities of [precognition] and [Kotoamatsukami] is extremely small, roughly comparable to the possibility of the Nine-Tailed Fox breaking through the [Eight Trigrams Seal] and [Dead Demon Seal] on its own!

[Kotoamatsukami] is a terrifying ability that can only appear when one’s illusionary talent is brought to its peak. How could it be created so easily?

Even in the history of the Uchiha clan, even Madara, who brought the clan to the pinnacle of the world, never awakened such a terrifying ability!

How could Uchiha Ara, who was not good at genjutsu, possibly possess it?

Still water can only ever be an exception!

Having made up his mind, Hiruzen Sarutobi's state of mind became completely stable. He even gently pushed aside the ninjas guarding him and walked to the center of the field.

After stopping, he was separated from that crazy kid by only a bewildered Naruto Uzumaki.

[I never imagined that only five short years would pass.]

This clan has actually developed to this extent.

Looking at the young juniors following behind Uchiha Ara, and focusing on those pairs of scarlet eyes etched with three black tomoe, Hiruzen Sarutobi's thoughts were momentarily distracted.

He seemed to see the past.

I saw the once extremely united and powerful Uchiha clan!

After the decline of the Senju clan, the Uchiha clan truly became the number one clan and the strongest family in the ninja world.

Even the Hyuga clan, which is on par with Konoha, cannot be said to be completely inferior to them, especially because of the special seal of the Caged Bird Seal, which has caused the main family and branch family of the latter to have certain conflicts and grudges for many years.

However, the most important point is that

The Uchiha clan is now completely controlled by that crazy kid, and there is absolutely no possibility for outsiders to make any moves.

Such cohesion, such a level of unity,

This is a level that neither Madara Uchiha nor Fugaku Uchiha could achieve during their reigns!

He gazed at the Uchiha juniors who shared a common hatred for him, who showed him no respect but looked at the crazy boy with adoration and trust.

He had every reason to believe that even if Ara wanted to replicate the failed plan from five years ago and incite a rebellion within Konoha, his clansmen would undoubtedly choose to follow him without hesitation!

look around,

The Konoha ninjas standing in the area did not look too good; many were solemn, panicked, muttering to themselves, or swallowing hard.

Everyone was filled with fear of this family that was gradually rising to prominence!

Without destruction, there can be no construction; only through destruction can life emerge.

At this moment, this was the only adjective that Hiruzen Sarutobi could think of.

【so,】

Therefore, there is only one way to eliminate the fear of the Uchiha clan among the Konoha ninja and prevent Konoha from facing the internal strife crisis of five years ago again!

That is, to take Ara, who stood before the Uchiha clan, and to take away the last spiritual pillar of this clan.

Completely eradicate it!

There's still time.

Everything is still in time.

After all, the world is never short of stories of geniuses falling from grace or dying young!

The shadows in his eyes are gradually fading.

Hiruzen Sarutobi carefully concealed the emotions surging in his eyes before speaking:

"Since Chief Ara has already punished Sarutobi Sugi, let's leave it at that. Those involved should go back and reflect on their actions."

"Furthermore, I need to remind everyone that this is Konoha. We all live on this land, and we see our comrades all the time. No matter which clan a ninja belongs to, no one can live in their clan's territory forever, and no one can rely on others to support them in their old age."

"Everyone here could potentially become a partner in this mission."

"Cooperation, difficulties, and dangers are things that all ninjas will encounter when carrying out missions."

"Therefore, getting along harmoniously and understanding each other in daily life is the first essential for becoming partners, teammates, and being able to entrust each other with their future."

“Back then, Kagami of the Uchiha clan and I were teammates I could entrust my back to.”

He downplayed the incident of Sarutobi Sugi's offensive remarks.

At the same time, the topic was instantly shifted back to the greater good and to appease the surrounding ninjas.

Of course, the statement that "no ninja of any clan can live in seclusion in their clan territory forever" and "cannot expect others to support them in their old age" is not only a further threat, but also a clumsy and simplistic provocation.

The threat was naturally directed at Uchiha Ara, who stood within its field of vision.

Because he knew perfectly well how much this little madman cherished his people.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have kept his descendants sheltered in Konoha and their clan territory, preventing those youngsters from going out on missions.

It should be noted that although the Sharingan is not as outstanding or strategically significant as the Byakugan in terms of post-transplant efficacy, there are still many people who want to obtain and study it.

Currently, with the decline of the Uchiha clan, countless forces and underground bounty hunters are stirring and keeping a close eye on these young children who are still young and have little ability to resist.

Waiting for them to leave this place that offered them refuge!

Moreover, this threat is not only external, but also internal.

No matter how strong Ara is, or how outstanding or terrifying the Mangekyou Sharingan's abilities are, there is one fact that cannot be changed.

The Uchiha clan ultimately declined.

Aside from him, who else is capable? How much more strength is available to follow and cooperate in battle?

[A one-on-one fight with an Uchiha is unavoidable; escape is the only option.]

Chiyo, the advisor from Sunagakure, did indeed give a very high evaluation.

But this is still Konoha.

One-on-one?

Ordinary ninjas, and even ordinary ninja clans, would indeed only be able to lose when facing Uchiha clan members of the same age and generation who have awakened their Sharingan.

but,

What can you do when facing an opponent ten or a hundred times stronger?

The Uchiha clan of today is no longer the powerful clan that could rival even small ninja villages!

Those pairs of scarlet three-comma swords, those still-childish faces, those blank resumes without real combat experience—to what extent can they be effective in actual battle? For how long can they be sustained?

Ultimately, these little guys are just a bunch of paper tigers that look intimidating, and they can't be compared to their fathers who have fought on the eastern border for a long time.

The current Uchiha,

Having abandoned the baptism of blood and fire, and sheltered in an ivory tower, the Uchiha clan, apart from Uchiha Ara, is truly nothing to fear!

However, this is only the current situation.

If the situation remains unchanged, then this clan will inevitably be a different story in ten years.

Those who possess the special bloodline limit, the Sharingan, grow at a terrifying speed, completely unlike ordinary ninjas.

Those eyes truly gave them endless possibilities.

Therefore, the provocation was specifically aimed at these fledglings protected by the clan leader.

This race is proud.

More arrogant than any other aristocratic family.

This arrogance is ingrained in their bones and is imbued in their surnames. No matter how many negative things happen or how difficult the situation becomes, their arrogance cannot be easily erased.

This can be seen from Uchiha Sasuke, who was ostracized.

Being protected and confined to Konoha indefinitely is certainly not the state these arrogant youngsters want to continue.

Whether it's out of a desire to share some of the burden with their clan leader, or driven by their own subjective will to fight and hone their skills, they are determined to succeed.

His words were tantamount to dousing them with flammable and explosive diesel fuel.

Okay,

You see,

Those increasingly cold gazes, those increasingly ferocious expressions, those tightly clenched fists...

This is the most direct manifestation of a clan that lacks patience and is full of arrogance.

But once they reach the outside of the village,

Then there are so many variables and things that can be controlled.

Furthermore, if arranged and handled properly, it would be a good way to contain and strike Uchiha Ara.
