His arrival undoubtedly brought about some changes to the world.
At the very least, he didn't want to see Might Guy still living such a difficult life after his father sacrificed himself for Konoha.
Just as Uchiha Ei was smiling, the two upside-down green figures miraculously stopped in front of him.
"elephant?"
Might Guy stood upside down, his gaze fixed on Uchiha Enoki, his voice filled with surprise and excitement.
"Haha, Shan, long time no see."
Uchiha Sho's lips twitched slightly. Although he was reluctant to acknowledge his somewhat eccentric teammate in public, he still nodded politely.
You're still so full of energy!
"Of course!"
Matt Mountain responded proudly, bracing himself with his hands and standing up steadily.
Together with his cousin Might Guy, he radiated youthful energy, gave Uchiha Eiji a thumbs-up, revealing a set of pearly white teeth.
"This is our youth! Isn't it, Kai?"
Matt Shan asked with a chuckle.
“That’s right, Uncle Shan.”
At just thirteen years old, Matt Kai was also full of energy, his eyes sparkling with boundless anticipation for the future.
"By the way, Kai, let me introduce you,"
Matt Shane turned to Matt Kai and spoke solemnly.
"This is the great hero captain I often mention—Uchiha Sō. It was he who defeated the current Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, on the battlefield of Kirigakure, forcing him to recuperate for several months and laying a solid foundation for Konoha's victory."
Although Might Guy may seem a bit simple-minded on the surface, he has learned a lot from following Uchiha Zou over the years.
One who stays near vermilion gets stained red, and one who stays near ink gets stained black!
He was not influenced by Uchiha Sō's cunning personality and can be considered a very opinionated person.
"Let's forget about the 'great hero' stuff,"
Uchiha Enoki's lips curled up slightly, clearly pleased by the praise from his honest teammate, a praise that was quite different from the one he received from Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's praise always carried a hint of insincere politeness, while Might Guy's praise was a heartfelt expression of sincerity and admiration.
"No, you are the hero!"
Matt Hill said firmly.
Might Guy, standing to the side, chimed in earnestly, "If it weren't for you, Uncle Elephant, the war situation in Konoha wouldn't have become so favorable."
Hey, kids never lie!
Just because of those two sentences you said, I'll protect you in Konoha from now on!
Uchiha Xiang smiled broadly, but still humbly shook his head: "You flatter me. Your father, Dai-senpai, was also a remarkable hero. Without his sacrifice, Kirigakure would not have retreated so easily."
"Speaking of which, I have something I'd like to ask you for help with, about elephants."
Matt Shan scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly, his expression a mix of awkwardness and embarrassment.
"I thought you could hold out for a long time? Mountain, don't you know me? I, Uchiha Zang, am the most loyal of all."
Uchiha Sō had already guessed that Might Guy wanted something from him, otherwise this usually "not good with words" teammate wouldn't have praised him so enthusiastically.
“Uncle Dai sacrificed himself, and you know our family's body-tempering method consumes a lot of medicinal herbs. With Kai and I both training, my income alone is really struggling. When Kai found out, he also wanted to join the security department to do missions…”
Matt Shan spoke earnestly, revealing all the unspeakable secrets in his heart.
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Sho knew that Might Guy wanted him to secure a position in the Security Department for Might Guy, so that he could have a stable government job.
Tsk tsk, he hasn't even made a move yet, and Might Guy has already delivered himself to his doorstep?
This kid is a real gem, incredibly talented, his future almost turned around with a single kick...
Throughout the entire Naruto world, who else could kick Obito away first and then kick Madara away?
We must recruit this kind of talent!
Uchiha Xiang stroked his chin, his eyes gleaming.
"Shan, what's our relationship? Besides, Kai is still the descendant of Might Guy, the hero. Take him directly to the security headquarters this afternoon, and I'll make the arrangements."
"That's great, thank you Uncle Elephant!"
"I can't believe it," Matt said excitedly.
"Thank you, Uncle Xiang..."
Might Guy also bowed deeply to Uchiha Ebo with gratitude.
The two then embraced tightly, as if to forever cherish this deep affection in their hearts.
"Then, let our youth burn brightly..."
"I am full of pride," Matt Mountain shouted.
Before they finished speaking, the two of them stood upside down again, like two green whirlwinds, and began running around Konoha Village.
Looking at the two guys' energetic and rugged figures, as well as their amazing physical abilities, Uchiha Xiang couldn't help but feel a surge of envy.
It's a pity that Uchiha Xiang couldn't learn even a little bit of it.
At 10:00 AM, in the office of the Minister of Security.
"Elephant Lord, please sit down."
Fugaku Uchiha's voice was gentle and kind. He had already received the Hokage's orders and knew that Uchiha Sō was about to become the new head of the Security Department.
At this moment, he looked unusually kind, and while brewing tea, he began to talk to Uchiha Sō.
"I've said before that it's most appropriate to hand over the Security Department to Elephant-kun to take charge of the overall situation. I didn't expect that the Hokage and the others would have the same idea. Great minds think alike."
Fugaku Uchiha's smile carried a hint of sincerity and appreciation.
“I’m sorry, clan leader. I just felt that you have devoted so many years to the clan, and even if you haven’t made any great contributions, you have certainly worked hard. It would be inappropriate for me to take over the position of Minister of the Security Department, which is so important to the clan, right away.”
Uchiha Ei shook his head, his tone tinged with humility and tact.
He pondered to himself: Did Fugaku truly want to relinquish the throne to him, or was he merely avoiding the limelight for the time being?
But no matter what, once Uchiha Sho has taken this position, he will never step down easily.
Even the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, wouldn't be able to get him to give up his position.
He is not like Fugaku, the head of the security department whose power has been largely usurped by the Anbu and Root.
The reason I didn't take over the position before was simply because the time wasn't right and the legitimacy wasn't sufficient.
Although these things are not so important within the Uchiha clan.
But Uchiha Sō was the "Heavenly Emperor" with the grand ambition of unifying the ninja world.
Just like many forces that, when they first start out, can use some "borderline" methods to grow stronger.
But once you've cleared your name, you need to be careful about your image and reputation.
Chapter 64, Konoha's New "Root"
After Uchiha Sō officially ascended to the upper echelons of Konoha, there are some things he still needs to be mindful of.
Unless he's prepared to overturn all the rules and start all over again.
Otherwise, he still has to abide by some of the rules of the game.
After all, to achieve great things, one must learn to be patient and bide one's time.
Of course, the strong have always been the creators of the rules.
Therefore, once his formidable strength was fully revealed, even though he had previously carried out sweeping reforms of the Security Department without the official authorization of the Konoha Administrative Department and the Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi had no choice but to accept this fact.
Even worse, he had to relinquish his position as Minister of Security as a way of appeasing the powerful figure.
"Thank you for your kindness, Hokage-sama and clan leader. From now on, I will work even harder and dedicate more of my heart and soul to the clan and the village."
"I am getting old after all, and the heavy responsibilities of the family and the security department in the future still need to be shouldered by you, Xiang Jun..."
With a smile, Fugaku Uchiha handed the seal symbolizing the head of the security forces to Zou Uchiha.
Although he was quite attached to the power he held, neither the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, nor this powerful figure who could be considered a prodigy, were people he was unwilling to face at this moment.
Over the years, by winning over younger generations, Uchiha Sho has already established intricate connections with various families within the Uchiha clan.
After demonstrating his unparalleled strength and domineering style, his prestige within the Uchiha clan became unmatched.
As the clan leader, if he does not voluntarily step down and yield the position to a more capable person, the clan members will likely spontaneously elect Uchiha Sō to the position.
At that point, let alone the position of Minister of Security, he might not even be able to keep his position as clan chief.
However, at this moment, he took the initiative to step down, and the elders and younger members of Uchiha Sho and his clan dared not "force" him any further.
As expected of a cunning old fox who has been in charge of the family for many years, he cleverly won a chance to survive by retreating in the face of such a dangerous situation!
Of course, part of the reason for this was that after seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi's true face after he was "de-enchanted," Fugaku Uchiha understood the true intention behind the order.
That was to use his reputation as clan leader for many years to weaken the clan's support for Uchiha Sō.
He's no fool; he wouldn't let the fisherman benefit from the fight between the snipe and the clam!
Who says he can't be that fisherman?
He only needs to step back and let Uchiha Sō and Sarutobi Hiruzen fight each other. Regardless of the outcome, he will be the ultimate "winner".
……
After officially taking over as the head of the security forces, Uchiha Sho simply changed his office location and nothing else changed.
After all, since he became the deputy head of the Security Department and started the Security Department reform, he has been the de facto controller of the Konoha Security Department.
After arranging for Jing Yue to be in charge of the special recruitment of Mighty in the afternoon, he leisurely returned home.
As the highest-ranking officer of the Konoha Police Department, he is extremely busy. He should go home and rest more often. I believe no one would object to that, right?
If you have any opinions, please keep them to me!
