"Then, Lord Hokage, can you expand Uchiha's power over the village again?"

One sentence made Fugaku widen his eyes and look at him in surprise and shock.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was also startled, his eyes narrowed, as if he didn't expect the other party to say that at all.

The scene became silent again, and the atmosphere was awkward for a while.

"Your Excellency Xia Le, how do you want to expand?"

"The security force that Uchiha is now responsible for is already a very important responsibility in the village!"

After a long time, the Third Hokage spoke solemnly.

He did not expect that the other party would directly ask for power.

"Of course the guard is important."

"But at the same time, it will offend many people!"

"It's better not to."

Immediately afterwards, Xia Le's words made Fugaku and Hiruzen stunned again.

"Elder Xia Le!"

Upon hearing such words, Fugaku was the first to be anxious, and his expression instantly became extremely ugly.

The position of the Konoha Guards was a right that the Uchiha clan had fought for for a long time. If they were given away, the clan would be furious.

The Third Hokage was stunned and said with a confused look on his face: "Uchiha, don't you want to take up the responsibility of the guard?"

"That you?"

His expression became strange.

Since the first generation, the Uchiha clan has been fighting for power, wanting to have more say in Konoha, and even directly targeting the position of Hokage.

The police force is the result of political struggle.

But now, the other party actually said that they don't need it.

"Compared to the Guard!"

"We Uchiha hope to build a shadow team that belongs to Konoha!"

Holding the tea cup, Xia Le ignored Fugaku's eager eyes and spoke slowly.

"Oh?"

"Appreciate further details!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked interested.

He came here just to explore the attitude of the Uchiha clan after its rise, so as to make political moves related to Uchiha during his term in office.

But he didn't expect that this would be unexpected.

The strongest Uchiha actually came up with a new suggestion.

"Uchiha can give up his position in the police force and hand it over to other families."

"However, we also want to contribute to the village, so we would like to ask Hokage-sama for advice on a new job."

There was a pause.

"The long-term war has caused many lost parents and orphans in Konoha."

"Uchiha wants to take in these orphans and teach them knowledge and ninjutsu, so as to cultivate a new team for Konoha."

After saying these words, Fugaku became even more anxious.

"Elder Xia Le, please think twice!!"

But the Third Hokage began to think deeply, and he looked at the other party with doubts on his face.

In these few words, although it is not clear what the Uchiha clan is going to do, it can already be seen.

Does the young Uchiha in front of him actually want to absorb the common people and orphans in the village to create a new team?

Konoha may not have considered this kind of thing, but in the end it gave up because of the huge expense and load.

Training ninja is not an easy task, and even with Konoha's understanding, there are only a few genin who graduate in one year.

Uchiha wants to do something like this?

"I need to think about this matter. I'm afraid I won't be able to give you an answer right away!"

The Third Hokage said cautiously.

Xia Le smiled slightly.

"of course can!"

The conversation between the two people directly ignored Fugaku, which made the Uchiha clan leader's complexion become extremely livid.

Chapter 462 Xiao

After the simple conversation, the Third Hokage's complexion looked much better, and his attitude in his words became more enthusiastic.

But Fugaku, as the clan leader, had an ugly expression.

"As for Xia Le's proposal, I will think about it carefully when I get back."

After a pause, Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Fugaku and spoke again with a smile.

"As the Hokage, I have received the kindness of the Uchiha clan!"

"I believe that in the future, it will bring more contributions to the village!"

Xia Le smiled slightly: "Looking forward to Hokage-sama's reply!"

Uchiha Fugaku stood up, forced out a smile, and bid farewell to the Third Hokage in person.

The two of them walked all the way to the door. Fugaku stood behind him, bending slightly to say goodbye to each other.

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, but paused in his steps, and then he smiled and said: "Elder Xia Le is not like the legend, a strong man with no ambitions!"

Uchiha Fugaku was stunned for a moment and was stunned on the spot.

He did not participate in the conversation between him and the Hokage just now. Everything was hosted and guided by Xia Le.

Giving up his position in the Wood Industry Guards was an unbearable burden for Uchiha.

This kind of thing is also unacceptable to Fugaku.

But in front of outsiders, internal conflicts cannot break out directly. He can only wait for the third generation to leave before he can ask the other party in person.

Soon, Uchiha Fugaku sat in front of Xia Le again.

The door was closed tightly, and Fugaku poured tea for him.

"Elder Xia Le, I don't understand!"

He said in a deep voice.

Xia Le picked up the tea cup on the table and smiled slightly: "Clan Chief Fugaku's magnanimity has increased somewhat!"

"It seems that turning on the kaleidoscope gives you a little more confidence and confidence."

"That's a good thing."

Fugaku frowned slightly: "The position of the police force is a benefit that the Uchiha clan has only obtained after fighting for it for so many years."

"If we give up, what will we Uchiha be in Konoha?"

Hearing this, Xia Le just chuckled: "So, what does Chief Fugaku want Uchiha to become in Konoha?"

"what?"

Fugaku was stunned.

This question stopped him.

What do you want to be?

Being in the big family of Konoha, Uchiha suffered too many constraints, and it was extremely difficult for them to obtain some benefits.

"The position of the police force will only bring greater harm to Uchiha!"

"It will make us suffer more cold looks from the village, and it will make the Hokage and his family even more fearful!"

"As for the benefits."

Xia Le sneered.

"With all due respect, I didn't see any of it."

The police force sounds nice, managing the order of the entire village, but to put it bluntly, isn't it just security? Not only is there no benefit at all, but it will also offend many ninjas.

This is also the deep-seated reason why the Uchiha clan has been disliked by many Konoha ninjas for a long time.

"on the contrary!"

"In today's situation, it is far less useful than cultivating a group of elite teams belonging to Uchiha ourselves!"

"Losing the power to manage the village is sometimes not a bad thing!"

"Giving up is to gain more!"

Xia Le said slowly.

Fugaku frowned, trying to understand the other person's thinking.

"Your suggestion will consume a lot of resources in the clan."

"In fact, if you choose from civilians, it will be difficult to select high-quality, qualified ninjas."

"I think the Third Hokage should be smiling happily at this moment."

Xia Le shook his head gently: "I have my own plans."

"As for the qualified little guy."

"It's nothing you need to worry about."

"I will be personally responsible for this team."

Hearing this, Fugaku fell silent.

He could vaguely feel that in his hands, Uchiha seemed to be heading for a different path.

In the Hokage's office.

"You said that the Uchiha clan wants to give up the power of the police force?"

"How can this be?"

"What do they mean? Letting them delegate power is even more difficult than killing them!"

In front of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo, Mito Kadenen, and Koharu Koharu all had expressions of disbelief on their faces.

"Although I don't know what Xia Le is thinking about!"

"But this thing is true!"

The Third Hokage said in a deep voice.

He is also trying to judge the other party's plan.

His subconscious instinct told him that Xia Le's move must have other meanings. But under the current situation, it is impossible to guess.

Because, no matter how you look at it, selecting civilian orphans and taking them in to become ninjas is a thankless task.

"He wanted to select civilians and build a team."

"What does this mean?"

"Without going through a ninja school? No need for training in the village to raise these orphans?"

"Would an Uchiha be so kind?"

Danzo's eyes flickered and he said doubtfully.
