To put it bluntly.
He's just a twelve-year-old boy!
This time, Root deployed countless strong individuals; could they still not take down a single Uchiha Jin?
Even if it was Mangekyo, Danzo didn't care.
Hadn't he dealt with it before?
Uchiha Kagami, back then, didn't he also have Mangekyo?
After a wave of emotion, Danzo returned directly to Root.
After gathering his forces, he spoke with a chilling tone.
"This mission's target is the Police Force."
"The primary target is Uchiha Jin; be aware that he has activated his Mangekyo."
"Eliminate this person at all costs!"
"Anyone who dares to obstruct will be killed without mercy!"
"Of course, while we're at it, go to the Police Force's jail and rescue those three idiotic Anbu members."
"Move out."
With Danzo's command, the entire Anbu mobilized.
Countless Root ninja, expressionless, mechanically began to execute the mission.
They were extremely fast.
In just half an hour, they arrived at the entrance of the Police Force.
Nine elite Root squads converged, with every member of each squad being a Jonin.
The leader wore sunglasses.
He glanced at the Police Force in the dark night, then casually waved his hand.
"Act!"
Chapter 93: Fugaku's Visit, Shattering His Illusions
Police Force, Director's Office.
Even though it was late at night, Uchiha Jin, who usually preferred to relax, unusually hadn't left today.
He was in a leisurely state.
He sat lazily on the guest sofa, chatting with Fugaku while drinking tea.
Yes.
The matter of catching the thief was minor, but the notice Jin issued had an extremely significant impact!
Upon learning of this, Fugaku naturally couldn't sit still.
And regarding Fugaku, the clan head, Uchiha Jin certainly didn't hide anything.
He immediately explained the whole story, including his plans and arrangements.
There was no other way!
Since he had made up his mind to throw the match with Shisui.
Plus, to provide cover for Nara Kazama in the future, he now had to work hard and do everything for a more stable life of relaxation later on.
"Jin-kun's idea is too dangerous, isn't it?" Fugaku frowned slightly, unable to help but say, "Provoking the Hokage-sama like this, if something goes wrong, we'll have no way out!"
"So, shouldn't we discuss it again?"
"I believe there must be a better way!"
Yes.
Fugaku hesitated.
He was inherently indecisive, and after hearing Uchiha Jin's plan, not directly stopping him was already quite accommodating.
He didn't want to take risks; he just wanted to live peacefully.
"Clan Head, you're overthinking it." Uchiha Jin sighed softly, "What kind of provocation is this from me?"
"And you seem to not have an accurate understanding of the Uchiha at all."
"We and the village's higher-ups have long been locked in a death feud, alright?"
"The Uchiha are too strong!"
"Even if the Uchiha appear submissive, the village must still eliminate the Uchiha."
"On the surface, the village's higher-ups are Tobirama Senju's disciples, and dealing with the Uchiha is a tradition passed down by Tobirama Senju."
"But, in reality."
"This is just a slogan; no matter who becomes Hokage, they will deal with the Uchiha."
"In fact, the Uchiha can only be ranked second."
"The first Ninja Clan the village dealt with was Sarutobi Hiruzen's teacher, Tobirama Senju's Senju Clan."
"Clan Head, open your eyes and look."
"Where is the vast Senju Clan now?"
"On the surface, the Senju Clan integrated into Konoha, but the problem is, can such a slogan be trusted?"
"If there were any other way, would the Senju Clan truly be willing to disband?"
"What kind of life do civilians live? Entering the Ninja Academy only teaches the Basic Three Body Technique, and then to accumulate merits to obtain a ninjutsu, they have to pay a bloody price."
"If you were the head of the Senju Clan, would you willingly disband the Senju Clan?"
"And don't forget, the order to disband the Senju Clan was not a decision made by Tobirama Senju, but a decision made by the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki, Mito Uzumaki, before her death."
"It was only for the sake of appearances that they spread the propaganda that this was a decision Tobirama Senju had already made during his lifetime!"
"But, in reality?"
"If Tobirama Senju had really made this decision while he was alive, would we, the Uchiha, as a top-tier noble clan, not even know a single clue?"
"So, why?"
"To put it bluntly, the Senju Clan had no choice; if they didn't do this, Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Hokage, wouldn't let them off."
"Even Mito Uzumaki, the First Hokage's wife and the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki, couldn't stop such a thing!"
"She couldn't stop the Uzumaki Clan from being annihilated, and she couldn't protect the Senju Clan either."
"Mito Uzumaki might have high status, and Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others might respect her, but when it comes to interests, it's still utterly useless."
"Think carefully, when Sarutobi Hiruzen first took office, did he truly target the Uchiha?"
"No!"
"Because before he annihilated the Senju Clan, he couldn't even spare a thought for the Uchiha."
"When did the Uchiha start being targeted by the village? Clan Head Fugaku, think about it, wasn't it after the Senju Clan was wiped out?"
"So, do you understand?"
"The village's targeting of the Uchiha has nothing to do with good or evil, right or wrong."
"If even the Senju Clan, who were their teachers, could be dealt with, what does a mere Uchiha amount to?"
"And I can even say, once the Uchiha are eliminated, the next will be the Hyuga Clan."
Hiss!
Uchiha Fugaku gasped.
This was the first time he had heard Jin's analysis, and it completely shattered his worldview.
So, that's how it was?
He used to think that the village's malice towards the Uchiha was simply because Uchiha Madara left Konoha.
But he had never considered that there could be such deep meaning in these events.
However, thinking about it carefully.
What Jin said really made sense.
The Uchiha were truly targeted, it seemed, only after the Senju Clan completely announced their integration into Konoha.
He trembled all over.
If that was the truth, didn't it prove that all his previous efforts were actually useless?
"The Uzumaki were annihilated, the Senju retreated." Fugaku murmured, "The Uchiha are being targeted, and the next will be the Hyuga?"
"I was indeed too naive, Jin-kun, you are the one who is right."
