Naruto Reborn: The Rise of the Tsar

Chapter 276 Provocation

Uchiha Fugaku made great achievements in the Second Ninja World War. He has great prestige in the clan and is almost certain to be the next clan leader.

The original clan had planned to hand over the positions of Uchiha clan leader and Konoha guard captain to Fugaku, which was what everyone expected.

However, Danzo once made a suggestion among the top management of Konoha, proposing that the captain of the Konoha Guards and the Uchiha Clan Chief should be selected separately.

Since the founding of the Second Hokage, the Konoha Police Force has been mainly staffed by members of the Uchiha clan, and the Uchiha clan leader is naturally the leader of the police force.

Therefore, Danzo's suggestion was a blatant attempt to weaken the Uchiha clan, which of course triggered a huge backlash from the Uchiha clan.

Countless Uchiha people took to the streets, surrounded the Hokage Building in the center of the village, and sat in protest.

In order to prevent accidents, the Hokage had to urgently mobilize all Anbu and Root members who were working out to return to the defense.

Danzo further proposed mobilizing elite troops stationed on the border to suppress the 'rebellion'. To this, Hatake Sakumo openly opposed it at a high-level meeting. He believed that this was just a peaceful struggle and would soon pass.

Now that Konoha has just been defeated, 'Konoha White Fang' has an unparalleled reputation as a war hero. Many ninjas in the army only know 'Konoha White Fang' but don't know who the 'Third Hokage' is. His opposition directly caused Konoha's top brass to be unable to mobilize the slightest bit of power from the garrison outside the village in a short period of time.

The once powerful Senju clan suffered serious losses in its core members during the Second Ninja War, and was no longer able to compete with the Uchiha.

That night, Sarutobi stood on the rooftop of the Hokage Building, facing the moonlight, staring at the silent Uchiha people who surrounded the entire Hokage Building.

There are also pairs of densely packed scarlet Sharingan eyes, which I pondered for a long time.

The next day, Sarutobi Hiruzen scolded Danzo at a high-level meeting, scrapped all his proposals, banned future discussions, and formally dismissed Danzo from his high-level positions.

He even gave up part of his ANBU quota to the Uchiha clan.

After various concessions, the turmoil was finally calmed down, but since then, Jiraiya was quickly recalled from Yunyu. At the same time, Tsunade was also appointed as Hokage's assistant in a short period of time, and Orochimaru directly took over the group. Hidden position and jumped into the upper echelons of Konoha.

Although this was a great victory for the Uchiha clan, and Uchiha's power further expanded in his own hands, Uchiha Fugaku was not happy at all.

He knew that cooking oil under fire was not a good thing, but now he was no longer alone. There were thousands of Uchiha tribesmen standing behind him. Every move he made, even if it was not from his heart, must represent the interests of the tribe.

But now, after being suddenly mentioned as the former 'Uchiha Madara', Fugaku's heart was filled with mixed emotions.

clap clap clap!

"exciting competition!"

Someone in the stands suddenly applauded, and many spectators took a look from a distance and saw that the other person was dressed as a Konoha ninja, with his trademark white hair, and a dagger looming behind his back.

Everyone who had been on the battlefield had heard of his name. They were shocked to find that 'Konoha White Fang' had been watching the battle!

At this time, in the surrounding auditorium, a figure deeply hidden under a cloak stared at the Konoha ninja above the stands with burning eyes.

His body trembled slightly, and a faint murderous aura slowly emitted. The civilians around him all showed fear and scrambled to avoid it.

Suddenly, a masked figure appeared instantly and put his hand on the opponent's shoulder.

"Calm down!" Ma Ji hid behind the mask and whispered, "I know that you have a grudge against the Konoha ninjas, but if you come on stage now, once you are exposed, you will not be the only one who will be affected!"

The figure under the robe sighed slowly, and the murderous aura around him finally slowly dissipated, but the civilians around him never dared to take a step closer.

"However, we are guests after all, so we should not be too arrogant in the host's house. Just win one more game and that's it." Konoha White Fang seemed to be warning his ninja not to be too arrogant, but he had no doubt about victory in his words. , like sharp thorns stabbing into the surrounding Sunagakure ninjas.

What is Hatake doing?

Uchiha Fugaku on the side was confused, why should Shisui be placed on the fire?

As expected, the next moment, the surrounding Sunagakure ninjas, including the civilians in the stands, began to become restless.

"unacceptable!"

"Don't we have a genius ninja in Sunagakure Village?"

"The Sandstorm Clan usually shows off its might, where are they now?"

Nobuko couldn't help but sigh. The word "genius" is not so easy. According to her understanding, in recent years, with the implementation of the "Blood Appraisal Order" of the Third Kazekage, blood has become an important evaluation criterion for the development of ninjas in the village. After that, the strength of the genin who graduated from the ninja school became worse each time.

I saw the referee looking at the list in front of him with a frown for a long time. Seeing the supervisors and the surrounding audience gradually booing, he finally got a heartbeat and said regardless, "Next, No. 13!"

At this time, a slightly fat genin looked frightened and looked at the number plate in his hand tremblingly, almost fainting.

"Where is No. 13?"

The referee's urging voice sounded, and suddenly, Rika on the side slowly walked forward. While Nobuko was stunned, he appeared next to the chosen genin in an instant, and snatched his number plate away. down, and at the same time stuff your sign into the opponent's arms.

Then Li Xiang slowly raised the 'No. 13' sign in her hand.

"it's here!"

"This" Shabao Zhenyi frowned on the high platform. Why is she a little girl who looks a little thin?

I no longer ask the people below to find someone to defeat this Konoha freak, but at least find someone with decent strength so that they won't lose too badly, that's all.

But what's the point of having a little girl come on stage?

Afterwards, I had to beat the referee to the third level in a row!

But now, the deal is done. Fortunately, this is the last scene. This farce is finally coming to an end.

Uchiha Shisui looked at the girl who was about the same age as him and said helplessly: "That's so cunning. You actually send a girl to play. I never hit women!"

"Really?" Rika smiled slowly. Before the referee announced the start of the competition, she suddenly moved and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Uchiha Shisui was startled, and suddenly felt a chill on his forehead. His Sharingan opened in response, and he saw a beautiful figure retreating.

The Konoha boy touched his scattered long hair in disbelief, then looked at the girl not far across the way and shook the forehead protector he had just taken away with a face of teasing, and suddenly clenched his fists tightly.

Hatake Sakumo frowned tightly. This movement felt inexplicably familiar, so he subconsciously asked: "What is this girl's name?"
