Naruto: I'm really not an evil scientist!

Chapter 72: The Siege of Obito!

These jobs allow the Uchiha clan to achieve safety without resorting to killing, earn them a good reputation, and, most importantly, are well-paid.

If it weren't for Minato Namikaze's dedication to improving relations between the Uchiha clan and the village, many smaller clans would have been vying for this lucrative position.

Of course, the inspiration for good deeds like pointing the way to lost travelers came from Obito.

Minato Namikaze added it because he was thinking of his deceased disciple, Obito.

In fact, the decision to include the straightforward and generous Ino-Shika-Cho trio, along with the rule-abiding but somewhat rigid Hyuga clan, into the Konoha security system was a well-thought-out one by Minato Namikaze.

However, some members of the Uchiha clan believe that the Fourth Hokage's actions were clearly an interference in the affairs of the Konoha Police Department, intended to weaken and suppress the Uchiha clan's absolute power in the department.

They believed that transferring a large number of Uchiha elites to other areas was actually a way to weaken the Uchiha clan's power.

In their eyes, this undoubtedly diminishes the Uchiha clan's voice.

In their distorted understanding, the Uchiha clan must be at the top, have everything go smoothly, and enjoy the glory of being the center of attention.

He even attempted to become the de facto leader of Konoha and have a member of the Uchiha clan become the next Hokage. If he did not become the Hokage, he was subjected to suppression and discrimination.

Of course, not all members of the Uchiha clan are so fanatical.

In fact, the vast majority of Uchiha clan members were delighted with these policies.

Because most of the jobs created by the new policy were allocated to members of the Uchiha clan, these were lucrative positions.

Their monthly salary is almost one to two times what they used to earn fighting desperately during times of war.

This is an incredibly lucrative opportunity. In the past, even risking one's life to make money, one could never earn this much.

Living in a peaceful era, yet able to make a fortune, how could they not be overjoyed?

Fugaku Uchiha naturally followed Minato Namikaze's policy direction.

More than 90% of the Uchiha clan members are normal people, so they naturally understand the situation and know how to make the right choice.

With reason and a broad perspective, the Uchiha clan leader Fugaku led his clansmen to honestly and diligently advance comprehensive and in-depth cooperation with Namikaze Minato.

However, within the Uchiha clan, there are always a few foolish and stubborn individuals.

Outside the village, a masked man, who possesses the Uchiha Reflector, a mysterious artifact from the Uchiha clan's legend capable of reflecting attacks, secretly colludes with these confused members of the clan.

It seems they are secretly plotting something, and conspiracies are brewing in the shadows.

The two groups of people quickly dispersed.

After the discussion, Obito Uchiha went alone to Rin Nohara's grave.

He stood there quietly, his eyes filled with complex emotions, his thoughts seemingly drifting off into the distance.

After a long while, he slowly squatted down and gently placed a small white flower on the ground.

Just then, something unexpected happened!

Countless shuriken sliced ​​through the air with a sharp whistling sound, sweeping towards Uchiha Obito like a surging tide.

The overwhelming barrage of shuriken, like a dark curtain, instantly enveloped him.

Each shuriken spun at an astonishing speed, carrying a sharp killing intent.

Just as the fastest shuriken was about to touch his body, Obito Uchiha flashed and hid in his Kamui dimension.

Beneath the mask, his expression shifted between light and shadow, his mind filled with doubt: when exactly had he exposed his whereabouts?

A continuous stream of shuriken and kunai came whistling in from afar, piercing the ground in front of him with a "thud thud thud".

Wood chips flew everywhere, dust billowed, and the explosive tags attached to the kunai were instantly detonated.

In an instant, a deafening explosion rang out, and the terrifying shockwave spread outwards like a surging wave.

The power of this explosion was in no way inferior to modern guns and cannons, and it cleared the area in just a few moments.

As the dust slowly settled, Obito stood unharmed in the same spot, though the ground behind him was now riddled with holes.

"That's enough." A righteous voice suddenly rang out, followed by a flash of golden light, and the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, wearing a divine robe, appeared in the open space.

The specially made teleportation dagger in his hand gleamed coldly, clearly indicating that he used it to perform the teleportation technique.

With a few "whoosh whoosh whoosh" sounds, countless masked members of the Anbu appeared using the Body Flicker Technique and surrounded Obito.

Among these secret agents, apart from the regular members, most were members of Minato Namikaze's carefully trained personal guard, each one an elite under his command.

Among them are his own genius disciple, Hatake Kakashi; Uchiha Shisui, a rising star of the Uchiha clan; and Hyuga Hizashi, the younger brother of the Hyuga clan leader.

Among them were also powerful figures such as Akimichi Choza.

This group of people are staunch supporters of Minato Namikaze.

At a slightly upwind location, a little distance away from them, Hiruko began to quietly release a colorless and odorless biological toxin.

This group of people were well-prepared before they arrived; they had taken the antidote half an hour before they came here.

The Ino-Shika-Cho trio has always been a close-knit group. Since Minato Namikaze arranged for Choza Akimichi to participate in this operation, he naturally wouldn't leave out Shikaku Nara and Inoichi Yamanaka.

They were also Minato Namikaze's capable assistants and the Hokage's most trusted staunch supporters.

They will all go all out in this plan to capture "Uchiha Madara".

This operation was meticulously planned by Nara Shikaku based on intelligence provided by Hiruko.

Yamanaka Inoichi and Nara Shikaku hide in the shadows, using the equipment provided by Hiruko to connect everyone's brains and thus provide specific strategic plans.

It also enabled voice communication between teams to provide off-field assistance.

Other members of the Uchiha clan attended the meeting; they had a long-standing relationship with Minato Namikaze, but they were not present at the scene of the operation.

One reason was to avoid suspicion, since Madara Uchiha was a member of the Uchiha clan, and his identity was sensitive.

On the other hand, after communicating with Minato Namikaze, Fugaku decided to personally lead the Konoha Police Force to capture the clansmen who had betrayed the village.

He did this both to clear his name and to protect the remaining goodwill within the Uchiha clan.

If he were to personally capture them, those clansmen might have a chance to survive, die with some dignity, and have their remains properly cared for by the Uchiha clan.

But if it weren't for him personally capturing them, for example, if it were Danzo instead, the remains of these clansmen would probably have been taken to a laboratory for experiments and would definitely not have been returned to the Uchiha clan.

After all, no one in the Uchiha clan didn't know who Danzo was.

Of course, Danzo doesn't always represent anything; the Uchiha's attitude is what matters most.
