Uchiha: Becoming the Strongest Hokage from Scratch

As night deepened, while Tobirama Senju was leading his clansmen to gather information, Rin Uchiha also returned after completing her mission.

The girl's face was full of exhaustion. "Moon, I'm back."

Rin's voice was a little hoarse. "I've visited 70% of the ninja clans on the list."

Uchiha Yue didn't say anything, but stepped forward and pulled her into his arms.

"You've worked hard," he said softly, patting her back tenderly.

Rin's body stiffened slightly, then relaxed, burying her face in his chest.

"The Hyuga clan's attitude is ambiguous; they say you have to go and talk to them in person."

The Night Moon Clan refused outright, but they were very nervous.

The Hatake clan is wavering; they only said they'd consider it, but they're most likely leaning towards us…

She reported in one breath, her voice growing softer and softer.

"That's enough, we'll talk about the rest tomorrow," Yue interrupted her, placing her hands on her shoulders. "You need to rest now."

"But the plan..."

"I'll handle the plan," Yue said firmly. "You've done enough. Leave the rest to me."

Rin wanted to say something more, but seeing the unquestionable look in Yue's eyes, she finally nodded.

Yue led her into the bedroom, forcing her to lie down. "Sleep, I'll watch over you."

Rin was indeed exhausted. Two consecutive days of intense travel and negotiations would be too much even for an elite Uchiha.

She closed her eyes and almost instantly fell asleep.

Yue sat on the edge of the bed, quietly watching her sleeping profile, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

"I'm sorry for making you bear so much," he murmured to himself, tucking the blanket around her.

A moment later, he stood up, the gentleness on his face vanishing.

Stepping out of the inner room, Uchiha Ryosuke, Kazumi, Koichi, and more than ten other followers were already fully prepared to set off.

"Lord Yue, everyone is ready." Uchiha Koichi stepped forward and reported in a low voice.

Yue nodded, her gaze sweeping over every face.

"Tonight's mission is simple: infiltrate, take control, and evacuate."

You have obtained information about the target. Remember, use your Sharingan to subtly suggest information; do not excessively alter their thinking to avoid arousing suspicion.

"Yes!" the crowd responded in unison.

"Work in pairs, proceed according to the original plan, and return here immediately upon completion."

Yue paused, then added, "If something unexpected happens... prioritize your own safety, understand? That's an order."

These words touched a flicker of emotion in the eyes of the followers.

"I swear to serve Lord Yue to the death!"

"Set off."

……

The Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire.

With guards every three steps and sentries every five, the defenses here are practically impregnable to ordinary people.

Unfortunately, they were facing Uchiha Tsuki, making it far too easy for them to infiltrate.

Whether it's conventional or unconventional methods.

Instead of showcasing his conventional infiltration skills, he opted for an extremely brute-force, hardcore breakthrough.

Flying Thunder God Technique!

call out!

He threw out a kunai, his figure flashed and teleported in front of him, then picked up the kunai again as it landed and threw it out once more.

call out!

Flying Thunder God Technique - Second Stage!

Throw, flash, throw again, flash again!

Especially with the help of the Sharingan's overwhelming power and predictive ability, each blink avoids the surrounding guards, simple, brutal, and silent.

Hey.

He landed gently, listened carefully, and then pushed open the door to enter.

The palace was luxuriously decorated, and the daimyo of the Land of Fire was sleeping peacefully on the large bed.

clap clap clap!

Uchiha Yue didn't hold back and slapped him awake with three slaps. "Hey, you slept in the wrong place. Wake up and go back to sleep."

The daimyo of the Land of Fire had barely opened his eyes when, before he could even get angry, he saw a pair of scarlet eyes…

"Listen to me, and you can go back to sleep." With the genjutsu of the Sharingan amplified, Yue's voice was incredibly seductive. "Tomorrow morning, I will come to visit you formally to discuss an important matter."

Da Ming nodded blankly.

"I would propose establishing a ninja village within the Land of Fire as a formal military force of the nation."

And all you need to do is agree to this proposal and provide the strongest possible support—land, funding, policies, everything must be in the most favorable terms.

"Then, you must announce this news to the entire ninja world, so that everyone knows that the Land of Fire now has its own ninja village, and that this ninja village will be led by Uchiha Tsuki."

Yue spoke each word clearly, the power of illusion penetrating deep into the Daimyo's mind, imprinting these instructions into it.

"You will genuinely believe that this is a wise decision, the most advantageous choice for the Land of Fire. You will look forward to my arrival and prepare all the necessary conditions for negotiations."

The daimyo's eyes were even more bewildered, but he murmured repeatedly, "Establish a ninja village... Uchiha Tsuki... the greatest support... to announce to the entire ninja world..."

"Very good." Yue nodded in satisfaction. "You slept at the right time this time, you can sleep again now."

After casting the illusion, a Flying Thunder God Technique seal appeared in his palm, which he casually imprinted on the daimyo of the Land of Fire.

From now on... this will be his backyard, where he can come and go as he pleases, a convenient haven for the suave and sophisticated.

After completing all this and checking the stability of the illusion, he quietly left the palace.

……

Uchiha Yue returned to the inn and waited for a while before Ryosuke, Koichi, and the others also returned one after another.

"Lord Yue, mission accomplished."

"All targets have been hinted at, and they will support the Daimyo's decision to establish a ninja village when the time is right."

Yue nodded. "You've worked hard. Go and rest. You'll be busy after dawn."

Almost at the same moment, Tobirama Senju returned to the Alliance camp with a gloomy expression.

"Brother, Ban, something's happened." He went straight into the main tent.

"What's wrong, Tobirama?" Hashirama asked.

"Someone visited all the major ninja clans before us," Tobirama's voice was cold, "and spread a terrible rumor."

The purpose of our alliance, besides ending the chaos and creating peace, is to promote equality for all.

Hashirama paused for a moment, then his eyes lit up. "Equality for all? That's great!"

The world needs not only peace, but also equality for all. How can such a noble ideal be a rumor?

Tobirama almost laughed at his older brother's naiveté.

"Brother! Don't you understand?" He suppressed his anger. "To those ninja clans, 'equality for all' means they want to reveal their clan's secret techniques, break the monopoly of bloodlines, and let outsiders learn what they've passed down through generations!"

Madara Uchiha frowned at this moment, "Indeed, such a statement will cause many ninja clans to have doubts."

"It's not just doubt!" Tobirama emphasized, "Hyuga, Yozuki, Taketori...

Almost all ninja clans that value bloodlines and the inheritance of secret techniques chose to observe or even become hostile towards us after hearing this!

He stared coldly at Madara Uchiha, suspecting it was a conspiracy by the Uchiha clan. "And the one spreading this rumor is none other than Uchiha Tsuki!"

Madara Uchiha paused, frowning as he retorted to Tobirama Senju, who was staring at him, "You doubt me?"

"You and Uchiha Tsuki are both from the Uchiha clan!" Tobirama said curtly.

"Only I can represent the Uchiha!"

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Hashirama Senju shouted, "Enough!"

At this moment, he finally realized the seriousness of the problem, but he didn't know what the problem was. "What is Uchiha Tsukuyomi trying to do?"

"Uchiha Tsukuyomi wants to exploit the fear of the other ninja clans and the pressure of forming an alliance with us to win over other ninja clans!"

Tobirama Senju was exhausted. "If he succeeds, he will build a powerful force no less than ours, directly confronting us!"

"He's going to start a war?" Hashirama Senju's eyes instantly turned dangerous.

"No! Uchiha Tsuki thinks the same way we do; we need to act quickly!"

Without bothering with further explanation, Tobirama Senju stated directly, "We must set off now and reach the Land of Fire as quickly as possible!"
