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

Yun An sighed, looking helpless, and a bitter smile gradually appeared on his face.

When he returned to the archives department and sat down at his workstation, just as Yun An had imagined, all his colleagues in the archives department were discussing the same topic.

Where was the mockery and sarcasm directed at the Uchiha clan from the previous few days? All that remained was regret and sorrow.

"The Uchiha clan is only offering 1,000 spots this time. I heard they want to see the villagers' reaction before deciding whether to open up the next batch."

"God help me, the response must be good. I also want to get a share of that initial supply pack, I heard it's worth a full 100,000 taels."

"The Uchiha must not get into any trouble, must not have any problems."

It was visibly clear that many of the colleagues around were silently praying.

"senior."

Yun An was staring blankly at everything that was both familiar and unfamiliar in front of him.

Suddenly, Anna Jingu's voice came from beside her.

Anna Jingu skipped and hopped, her lips curving into a smile, and her brows brimming with joy; it was clear at a glance that something happy had happened.

Yun An looked at her.

She immediately presented a flyer to Yun An as if it were a treasure: "Senior, look what this is?"

Yun An made an exaggerated expression to match, but Jingu Anna was no naive girl. She pouted her pink lips and looked a little disappointed, but then she suddenly remembered something and her eyes lit up: "Did you receive it too, senpai? I knew you were an elite civil servant who knew how to seize opportunities."

No, not at all.

Yun An shook his head, sighed softly, and then, under the expectant gaze of Jingu Anna, took out Shang Linchuan and the chakra training method that had been given to him before.

He never expected that one day this thing would actually come in handy; he had only ever used it as a tablecloth.

After hearing Yun An's explanation, Jingu Anna's eyes lit up with admiration, and she rested her chin on her hands, saying, "Senior is amazing. The Uchiha clan's unique chakra cultivation technique must be much better than this modified one."

"No wonder you were so composed, senior. You were prepared all along."

Anna Jingu said with a grin, handing the extra flyer to Yun An, "But you can get some initial supplies from the flyer, so it's still useful for you, senior."

"After lunch, shall we go together, senior?"

Jingu Anna extended an invitation, and Yun An chuckled as he looked at the girl before him before accepting.

In this life, he was a commoner, so some things happened naturally and weren't considered big deals.

Furthermore, Yun An is quite curious about the situation at the Uchiha Police Department. He wants to see what Uchiha Itachi has done and what other changes he has made.

……

The streets of Konoha.

Orochimaru and Danzo, who came from the Root organization, traveled together, with their trusted followers silently blending into the crowd behind them.

They stopped hiding and gradually began to live the life that normal ninjas should have.

At Orochimaru's suggestion, Danzo first piloted a change in the lifestyle of some of his direct subordinates. He then clearly felt that the Root organization became more vibrant, and those direct subordinates became more loyal to him.

Moreover, their flexible and adaptable thinking has greatly improved the efficiency of the Root organization in recent days, which makes Danzo even more enthusiastic about the next step of the Root organization's transformation plan.

"Only in this way can Danzo's advisors become more competitive."

"Just like everything the Uchiha are doing now, the more the villagers accept the Uchiha, the better the Uchiha can integrate into Konoha Village."

Orochimaru spoke with a gentle smile and a slightly magnetic voice.

His smiling lips and gentle appearance gave him an aura that made him more approachable and trustworthy.

Danzo pursed his lips upon seeing this; even now, he was still somewhat unaccustomed to it.

I even always feel...

Even the changes in the Uchiha clan in front of them were not as significant as the transformation of Orochimaru.

Since the day the two met, Orochimaru's behavior, clothing, and even the details of his life have undergone a complete transformation.

Many times, when Danzo looked at Orochimaru, he vaguely saw the shadow of the First Hokage, and even felt that Orochimaru was more outstanding, more like a leader with extraordinary abilities.

That's why Danzo was willing to listen to him instead of going down a dead end.

"We still need to have the Root people keep an eye on them, just in case the Uchiha..."

Danzo's words were self-evident.

Orochimaru, however, waved his hand dismissively and said without the slightest hesitation, "Isn't Root just another Uchiha clan? The Third Hokage is probably secretly sending ANBU to keep an eye on us."

Danzo's eyes suddenly darkened.

Orochimaru continued, "However, this is also a necessary political consideration."

Danzo's gaze relaxed slightly.

Orochimaru continued, "Take the Uchiha in front of us, for example. Will they really do anything? Sometimes, the more you invest, the more you fear losing; that's called sunk cost."

"Actually, whether it's the Uchiha clan or you, Danzo, if you take the Root group and the Shimura clan behind them separately and move them outside of Konoha, wouldn't you be able to establish a small ninja village?"

Why not do it that way?

Danzo opened his mouth, instinctively retorting, "Don't lump Root together with the Uchiha. Besides, if that brat Hiruzen can become Hokage, why can't I, Danzo? Our teacher is biased, but am I, Danzo, any less capable than him?"

"Over the years, my contributions to Konoha Village have been no less than his."

"That's what the Uchiha clan thinks too."

Orochimaru hit the nail on the head, his words becoming increasingly incisive.

Danzo was taken aback again. He couldn't put himself in the Uchiha's shoes, but what if they were in the same situation?

At that moment, Danzo suddenly had more to consider.

……

"Hiashi, it's been a long time since we've had tea so quietly."

Fugaku Uchiha came to visit the Hyuga clan.

Although the Hyuga clan was on high alert, they still opened the door to convenience.

As both are powerful clans in Konoha, the Uchiha clan has always been superior to the Hyuga clan. Today, with the clan head Fugaku Uchiha personally visiting, the Hyuga clan cannot refuse him a visit, neither out of courtesy nor reason.

Just as Lin Chuanhe had said at the previous clan meeting.

Within Konoha Village, while everyone may have long reached a consensus to exclude the Uchiha clan, no one would dare to openly reject them.

Otherwise, the devastating consequences would be something no family or clan could bear.

The Uchiha clan may not be a match for Konoha, but they certainly have the ability to take any clan down with them. This is the terrifying foundation that Konoha's elite clans have always possessed.

"Fugaku, you've really gone all out, even giving up your Sharingan? The Hyuga clan would never do that."
