Naruto: Reincarnation of a Hundred Lifetimes, the Uchiha's White Moonlight

"How dare you! You actually slander our Uchiha clan, the elite family of Konoha, like this. Do you think the Uchiha are so easily destroyed?"

An elder slammed his fist on the ground in anger and shouted a stern rebuke.

"When did such a talented young man appear in the village? How come I had no idea?"

"What an arrogant tone. Boy, don't think that just because you have the clan chief protecting you today, you can act without restraint."

In an instant, voices of condemnation and questioning rose and fell within the shrine, almost completely drowning out Kaname Kawawa's voice.

Countless elite Jonin on both sides of the corridor were filled with furious rage, their chakra energy surging wildly, as if they were about to attack Shang Linchuan in front of them at any moment and kill him on the spot.

However, upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that the vast majority of those making noise are those who are not in power.

The true power holders.

Neither Uchiha Shin, the leader of the dove faction, nor Uchiha Setsuna, the leader of the hawk faction, were angry at what the young man, Uebayashi Kawa, had said. Instead, they unusually began to listen carefully and acknowledged his initial remarks.

"Continue."

Shin Uchiha spoke first, and the doves had no choice but to fall silent.

"What's all this commotion about? No wonder everyone in Konoha looks down on my Uchiha clan. Do you think a mere teenager's words can really wipe out my Uchiha clan?"

"Isn't it embarrassing enough already?"

Uchiha Setsuna said in his usual stern tone.

As a result, the hawks fell silent once again.

"Boy, don't think I'll believe your slander. It's just that what you said does have some merit. But if what you say next isn't good enough, don't even think about leaving the Uchiha clan today."

Uchiha Setsuna wore a mocking smile, but his eyes were already beginning to simmer with killing intent.

Kamiya Kawakazu swallowed hard, then glanced at Uchiha Fugaku and saw that he still supported him as always.

He stiffened his neck, knowing that he had no way out at this point.

Can only walk one way to the dark.

then……

"The Uchiha clan is terribly wrong!"

"And the biggest mistake you made was that you were too eager to integrate into Konoha, too eager to become the village's kage, and too eager for the position of Hokage."

Uebayashi Kawana recalled his past conversation with Yun'an and began to pour out their theories one by one: "The position of Hokage is like a leaf blocking the view, obscuring the true direction of the entire Uchiha clan."

Seeing that no one spoke up, Kamiya Kawakazu boldly walked out of the shrine on his own.

Under the watchful eyes of a group of elite Jonin, he did not turn and run.

How could a mere commoner like him possibly outrun a ninja?

It's a complete joke.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Kaname Kawawa squatted down, picked up a few fallen leaves, hugged them to his chest, and then ran back to the shrine, where the leaves fell to the ground with a "whoosh".

Shang Linchuan picked up a fallen leaf and held it in front of his left eye.

Fugaku Uchiha found it amusing and imitated it; Shin Uchiha and Setsuna Uchiha also followed suit.

Finally, within this shrine, every member of the Uchiha clan behaved in the same way.

"If you block one eye, you can only see half of the world; if you block both eyes, you can't see anything at all, only darkness remains."

"And this is the darkness of the Uchiha clan. Sometimes, giving up is the true way to gain."

Two fallen leaves landed on Lin Chuanhe's shoulders.

At this moment, he couldn't help but raise his hand, a slight smile playing on his lips, his face displaying a reverent expression, and continued with unwavering conviction, "Just imagine!"

"If the Uchiha clan has obeyed the Hokage's orders in everything since their ancestor Madara Uchiha left the village, yet hasn't given their all, what should the Uchiha do if the Hokage trusts them? If the Hokage doesn't trust them, what should the Uchiha do?"

Shang Linchuan looked around, his clear eyes meeting the crowd.

He may not be mature enough, but the theories he has accumulated over many years of exchanging ideas with Yun An are enough to subdue this group of proud Uchiha.

He clenched his fist and swung it down hard, then shouted with a look of utter disappointment, "What we should do is something far from the usual Uchiha behavior."

"Taking the lives of clan members and the clan's funds to curry favor. This was the Uchiha clan's biggest mistake from the very beginning."

Even after this point, the clan elders Uchiha Shin and Uchiha Setsuna remained silent. However, the other Uchiha clan members within the shrine could no longer hold back and immediately spoke up, asking, "Are we Uchiha wrong for building the village?"

This issue has been brewing within the Uchiha clan for many years.

Normally, their pride wouldn't allow them to humbly ask questions, but today, Lin Chuanhe's appearance undoubtedly gave them the best person to confide in.

"Build a village?"

Uebayashi Kawana repeated his words, letting out a cold, sarcastic laugh. "Heh, who's building the village?"

"Are you Uchiha? Has anyone seen you?"

"Then why hasn't anyone in the village mentioned this? Can't you see the villagers' attitude towards the Uchiha?"

"Don't tell me this mere commoner!"

Uebayashi Kawana leaned back abruptly, adopting an even more mocking and arrogant posture. "What the Uchiha did was hand over the clan's funds to the Hokage and send the clan's lives to the battlefield according to the Hokage's orders."

"In the end, what did the Uchiha clan gain?"

"The clan's funds became the Hokage's funds, used to build the village, so the Hokage naturally gained the villagers' love and respect; the clan's lives became the Hokage's achievements in Konoha, so the villagers naturally stood on the Hokage's side."

"But they all belong to our Uchiha clan. That's all our Uchiha money."

At this moment, another Uchiha clansman shouted with indignation and resentment.

"Who knows? Do the villagers know? Or do the other ninja clans know?"

Shang Linchuan picked up where he left off, continuing with a cold laugh.

"If you do something and no one else knows about it, it's as if you didn't do it at all."

"That's just how the Uchiha are!"

Shang Linchuan's words, each one powerful and resounding, undoubtedly struck a chord deep within the hearts of all the Uchiha clan members once again, performing a comprehensive surgical procedure on their minds from the inside out.

All the Uchiha clan members were dumbfounded.

So, silently dedicating oneself is wrong?

It is good to make contributions, but they must be done in the right way and through the right channels in order to receive appropriate rewards.

"Those ninja clans...they know..."

Uchiha Setsuna suddenly spoke, his voice heavy and full of frustration.

But Shang Linchuan, who had already gone mad with his words, didn't care about the other party's identity. Hearing this ridiculous statement again, he couldn't help but retort from the bottom of his heart.
