Dozens of ninjas wearing Jonin vests had surrounded Uchiha Touhuan and Uchiha Inahisa carrying Yamato, but no one made the first move. Uchiha Touhuan stood in the center of the encirclement, looking calm and composed, casually tossing the half of Danzo in front of him like trash.

"How dare you! You actually killed a Konoha elder! Is the Uchiha clan going to betray the village?" At this moment, a loud shout came, and the ninjas surrounding Uchiha Touhuan made way for him. Konoha's two advisors, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, stepped out and, upon seeing the tragic state of their former teammates, immediately demanded, "Men, seize these two rogue ninjas!"

"Let's see who dares!" Just then, one Uchiha ninja after another arrived from behind Uchiha Touhuan. Under the setting sun, pairs of scarlet Sharingan eyes radiated a dangerous light. Leading them were several martial arts elders of the Uchiha clan and the clan leader, Uchiha Fugaku, who had been brought there by them.

After Uchiha Zaito returned to the clan to deliver the message, the Uchiha clan ninjas quickly assembled. The message that Uchiha Zaito brought back, mentioning Danzo's arm full of Sharingan eyes, enraged even the most pacifist members of the clan.

Shisui, who had just undergone eye transplant surgery and was still recuperating in the clan, couldn't sit still after hearing the news. He and Itachi, who rushed to find him as soon as they heard the news, wanted to stop it, but the Uchiha had lost much of their rationality at this moment, and their persuasion had no effect. They almost had a conflict in the clan, so they had no choice but to come with the clan members.

"Is the Uchiha clan going to rebel?" Mitokado Homura asked angrily upon seeing this.

"Dare to desecrate the remains of my clansmen? It is not unreasonable for us to rebel today!" A certain Uchiha martial arts elder stood firm.

"Stop right now!" Just as the two groups were about to clash, Hiruzen Sarutobi's powerful voice rang out. A slightly short figure appeared in the center of the two groups, with the words "Third Hokage" prominently displayed on his divine robe. Upon seeing the newcomer, both groups immediately stopped.

Chapter 6 There are bad people around the Hokage

"Third Hokage, you've finally arrived." Uchiha Touhuan, who had remained silent until now, finally spoke slowly.

"Dou-huan, what exactly happened?" Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at the half-dead Danzo on the ground before asking Tou-huan Uchiha.

“This morning, we received a mission from the village, but we were ambushed on the way,” Uchiha Touhuan said calmly. “After the three of us killed all the attacking ninjas, we found Lord Danzo’s remains among the attackers’ corpses.”

"You're talking nonsense! How could Danzo possibly go to intercept and kill you!" Mitokado Homura immediately retorted angrily.

“No matter what, that’s the truth,” Uchiha Touhuan said calmly. “During our fight, he revealed the Sharingan on his arm. The three of us killed him as if he were a thief who stole our clan’s blood, only to find out that he was Elder Danzo.”

"Hiruzen, don't believe his nonsense! This is clearly a frame-up by the Uchiha clan after they killed Danzo!" Koharu Utatane chimed in.

"The Uchiha clan would never desecrate the remains of their own kin!" the Uchiha clan elder behind Uchiha Touhuan roared.

“What we discovered is not just the Sharingan.” Faced with the doubts, Uchiha Touhuan was not annoyed. He simply removed the Sharingan from Danzo’s arm one by one and then removed the sealing technique that had been placed on it. The unrestrained Hashirama cells instantly engulfed Danzo’s remains, turning them into a twisted wooden stake.

"This is... Wood Release?" Some of the older generation of ninjas present recognized what it was. At the same time, Uchiha Touhuan gestured to Inahime to throw Yamato off his back.

“During the battle, we also discovered this ninja who can use Wood Release. I don’t need to explain what that means.” Uchiha Touhuan looked intently at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"How dare you desecrate the remains of the First Hokage!" The one who spoke was a dove-like elder of the Uchiha clan. This elder had always respected the First Hokage, and seeing this scene, he naturally could not accept it.

At this moment, the ninjas on the Hokage's side also showed some fluctuations on their faces. After all, Danzo's actions were no less than defecating on their beliefs.

Hiruzen Sarutobi knew he could no longer remain silent: "Everyone, I will have people investigate all of this thoroughly and give you an explanation. Please give me some time!"

"We can't trust them! Touhuan! You've led us in rebellion! You've awakened Lord Madara's eyes! You can definitely lead our Uchiha clan to glory!" Hiruzen Sarutobi's words obviously failed to quell the Uchiha clan's anger, and two radicals immediately stood up and shouted.

Shisui and Itachi were in a panic in the crowd, but their clansmen had already fallen into a frenzy.

The two people in the crowd exchanged a glance and made up their minds at the same time to stop it, even if it cost them their lives.

But at that moment, Uchiha Touhuan suddenly turned around and shouted, "Shut up, all of you!"

Upon hearing Uchiha Touhuan's words, the Uchiha clan, who had been clamoring for rebellion just a second ago, were instantly stunned, and several elders of the martial arts faction stared at Uchiha Touhuan in disbelief.

Uchiha Touhuan's three-tomoe eyes had transformed into Mangekyou Sharingan. He then reprimanded him mercilessly, "What nonsense are you spouting! Konoha was founded by the First Hokage and Lord Madara! We were born here, we grew up here, this is our home! We drink the water of the Naka River and eat the food grown in the same rice paddies as the village. We are also part of this village!"

Upon hearing Uchiha Touhuan's words, Shisui and Itachi were both taken aback. Did Uchiha Touhuan not want to rebel?

"Clan leader, you agree, right?" Uchiha Touhuan then looked at Uchiha Fugaku, who had remained silent.

Fugaku Uchiha gave Touhuan Uchiha a deep look, then stepped out of the crowd and bowed to Hiruzen Sarutobi: "Touhuan is right. My clansmen were too excited before, and we apologize to the Hokage."

The radicals behind the two wanted to say something, but seeing the kaleidoscope in Uchiha Touhuan's eyes, they wisely shut their mouths.

“I understand,” Hiruzen Sarutobi said, taking the opportunity to back down. “Even I would find it hard to remain calm if I saw my clansmen’s bodies being treated like this. Fugaku, let the clansmen go back first. Once everything is investigated, I will give everyone a satisfactory answer.”

“However, Hokage-sama, we do need an explanation right now.” Uchiha Touhuan suddenly spoke up again at this moment, and at the same time, he also took out the “mission scroll stamped with the Hokage’s seal” that he had obtained this morning.

"Did you sign this scroll?" Uchiha Touhuan asked with a smile as he looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Douhuan, I did not issue any missions to you, and there is no record of them in the mission hall." Hiruzen Sarutobi just wanted to cut ties with Danzo as soon as possible, so he only glanced at the wooden stake that Danzo's corpse had turned into on the ground before speaking.

"So, this was all Elder Danzo's personal behavior, right?" Uchiha Touhuan said.

"Forgive me, Danzo," Hiruzen Sarutobi thought to himself, but he still had to cut ties.

“That’s right,” Hiruzen Sarutobi said.

"How despicable!" Uchiha Touhuan immediately became indignant. "The Hokage works tirelessly for the village every day, but some people do things that harm the village for their own selfish reasons! There are bad people around the Hokage."

As he said this, Uchiha Touhuan also glanced at Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu beside him.

"Dou-huan, I understand how you feel. Don't worry, I will definitely get to the bottom of this." Seeing Uchiha Dou-huan's loyal words, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't know what else to say, and could only repeatedly emphasize this point.

"Lord Hokage, the Uchiha clan is willing to share your burden in this matter," Uchiha Touhuan said, bowing deeply.

"Douhuan, I understand your feelings..." Hiruzen Sarutobi wanted to continue with his official remarks, but as soon as he looked up, he saw the kaleidoscope slowly rotating in the eyes of Uchiha Douhuan in front of him.

"Lord Hokage, the Uchiha clan is willing to share your burdens."

Cold sweat dripped from Hiruzen Sarutobi's forehead. Only then did Hiruzen realize with shock that this was Uchiha Touhuan's true purpose.

As Hiruzen Sarutobi watched the slowly rotating Mangekyou Sharingan, he also thought of what Shisui had told him yesterday about the dangerous eye technique currently in the hands of Touhou Uchiha. Although, as he had told Shisui, directly controlling him with this eye technique would not have any impact on the situation in Konoha, it did not mean that he was willing to be controlled by this eye technique. His decision to let Danzo act was partly motivated by the desire to have Danzo help him navigate this dangerous situation.

It was only at this moment that Hiruzen Sarutobi truly realized that Touhuan Uchiha was more troublesome than any other Uchiha he had ever encountered.

Thinking of this, Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed and then said, "Since you are so willing, then I'll leave this matter to you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Mangekyou Sharingan in Uchiha Touhuan's eyes went out, and Uchiha Touhuan bowed slightly to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Yes, sir." After saying that, Uchiha Touhuan turned around and glanced at his clansmen behind him.

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi was about to leave with his men, Touken Uchiha's voice rang out again:

"The Uchiha clan salutes the Hokage!"

Standing at the forefront of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Touhuan flicked his right hand and placed it beside his head: "Loyalty! Sincerity!"

Upon seeing this, the other Uchiha clan members, including clan leader Fugaku Uchiha, all followed suit: "Loyalty! Sincerity!"

Chapter 7 Clan Chief

After the incident at the village entrance was over, Uchiha Touhuan, having obtained what he wanted, returned to the clan's territory with his fellow clansmen.

On the way back, some radical members of the clan wanted to say something, but when they saw Uchiha Touhuan's back, they wisely kept their mouths shut.

After returning to the clan's territory, Uchiha Touhuan turned around and said, "I know everyone has many questions, so let's hold a clan meeting while everyone is here."

No one present objected. The shrine in the clan was lit, but when Uchiha Touhuan took his seat, he unsurprisingly sat in the first position below Uchiha Fugaku.

The elders exchanged glances, tacitly acknowledging this fact. In the Uchiha clan, strength was paramount, and even if Uchiha Touhuan, who had awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, wanted to become the clan leader, they would support him.

As for Uchiha Fugaku, who had remained silent the entire way, he glanced at Uchiha Touhuan and then continued to remain silent.

"Are all the ninjas of Chunin rank and above in the clan present?" Uchiha Touhuan asked after everyone had taken their seats.

“They’re all here,” Uchiha Inahi replied first.

"Alright, then, the first thing is that I want to become the head of the Uchiha clan. Who agrees, who disagrees?" Uchiha Touhuan threw out his trump card right from the start.

Rather than engaging in power struggles with the Hokage's faction, Uchiha Tohsen chose the simplest and most direct approach when it came to internal clan issues.

Upon hearing this, the clansmen present were thrown into chaos. Shisui and Itachi, among the crowd, looked at Uchiha Touhuan with incredulous eyes.

At this moment, a dove-like elder organized his thoughts before speaking: "Douhuan, now that you have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, you should have no problem taking the position of clan leader. However, you haven't participated in clan meetings much over the years and don't understand the clan's issues very well. It would be too hasty to take the position of clan leader so hastily."

“That’s right, Dou-huan, you should learn about the situation within the clan first, and then become the clan leader in a year or two.” At this moment, the radical elder also spoke up in support. Judging from Uchiha Dou-huan’s speech at the village entrance just now, it seemed that Uchiha Dou-huan was not on their side.

"Heh." Uchiha Touhuan chuckled dismissively. "I know the situation within the clan very well, which is why I don't attend the clan meeting."

"Tell me, after all these years of clan meetings, what conclusions have you reached?" Uchiha Tohkan placed his hands on the table, scrutinizing each of the clan elders sitting at the front. "Is it a direct armed rebellion, or simply surrendering to the village? If you could come up with a conclusion, I wouldn't be sitting here today."

"Disorderly arguments will only drag the clan into the abyss amidst chaos. What the Uchiha clan needs is not these endless clan meetings, but a leader who can guide the clan out of its predicament. One voice is enough for the clan!"

Uchiha Touhuan's words were a wake-up call, and the clansmen looked at each other in silence.

"I support Dou Huan becoming the clan leader!" At this moment, Uchiha Inahisa stood up and was the first to break the silence.

Today, Uchiha Touhuan's feat of single-handedly and casually slaughtering nearly a hundred Root ninjas before his eyes made him a fanatical follower of Uchiha Touhuan.

"Douhuan has the Mangekyou Sharingan! I also support him becoming the clan leader!" Uchiha Zaidou chimed in with his support.

Soon, the young and strong members of the clan, led by the two, voiced their support for Uchiha Touhuan to become the clan leader.

"Enough!" Fugaku Uchiha suddenly spoke up, silencing the noise in the hall. Then, he looked at Touhuan Uchiha: "Touhuan, judging from your words, you must already have a plan."

“Now that I’m standing here, I naturally have a well-thought-out plan. I’m sure that with the vision of Clan Chief Fugaku, you can see the future of our clan,” Uchiha Touhuan said, looking directly into Uchiha Fugaku’s eyes.

Although Uchiha Touhuan spoke rather cryptically, Fugaku understood his meaning. Uchiha Touhuan probably guessed that he also possessed a pair of Mangekyou Sharingan.

Although he could retain his position as clan leader if he revealed his kaleidoscope right now, could he really expose himself?

If someone in the Uchiha clan could still remain calm if he only had a pair of Mangekyou Sharingan, then once those Mangekyou Sharingan were exposed, the last vestige of composure in the entire Uchiha clan would vanish. At that point, they would truly have no choice but to rebel.

Fugaku Uchiha looked at Touhuan Uchiha meaningfully. After a long while, he finally spoke: "Very well, I, as the clan head, am to blame for the clan's current predicament. Touhuan, I entrust the clan to you."

"Chieftain!"

"Father!"

Itachi and Shisui immediately became anxious. Unlike the other clan members, they were well aware of the extent of Uchiha Touhuan's madness. Although Uchiha Touhuan's speech at the village entrance just now seemed to be from the village's perspective, Uchiha Shisui had clearly remembered Uchiha Touhuan's crazy remarks last night.

"Don't let the clansmen down, Touhuan." Uchiha Fugaku ignored Shisui and his son, gently patted Uchiha Touhuan's shoulder, and gave up his seat.

Before heading to the village entrance, Fugaku Uchiha had already used his Mangekyou Sharingan, which allowed him to see fragments of the future, to examine everything. The appearance of Tohsen Uchiha had brought about unexpected changes to the future. Although he couldn't see it clearly yet, it was at least much better than the future that had previously offered no hope whatsoever. Therefore, at this moment, Fugaku Uchiha had no attachment to the position of clan leader.

“That is my wish.” Uchiha Touhuan arrived at Fugaku’s seat, but did not sit down in a hurry. Instead, he looked at the Uchiha clan elites in front of him and slowly said, “The Uchiha clan has been a glorious clan since ancient times. Now we are just facing a little difficulty. I will lead everyone to rebuild the glory of the Uchiha. And I will not enjoy this glory alone.”

"Follow the clan leader's orders! Be loyal!" Uchiha Inaho, who was already a big fan of Uchiha Touhuan, saluted, imitating Uchiha Touhuan's manner at the village entrance earlier!

With a leader in place, all the young members of the Uchiha clan, except for Shisui and Itachi, stood up and saluted.

"loyalty!"

Seeing this, some clan elders who still had doubts about Uchiha Touhuan succeeding as clan leader could only remain silent.

Uchiha Touhuan looked at the crowd below with satisfaction. Although most members of the Uchiha clan were not very bright, as long as they had a leader, their loyalty could be absolutely trusted.

"I have two things to announce next," Uchiha Touhuan said, gesturing for everyone to be quiet.
