Before he saw Dan.
Yashiro and Setsuna had discussed this before. They wanted to test out Dan’s position first and ask him what he thought about the patriarch, the family, and the village.
They didn’t want to express the opinion of the radical faction as soon as they came up, so as not to scare this kid.
After all, in the eyes of the two.
Military coup was too radical for a young man who was used to living a comfortable life.
Until now.
After listening to Dan, the two realized that their previous thoughts were wrong.
If said.
If the tribe headed by Uchiha Yashiro and Elder Setsuna is a radical faction, then Dan is a suicidal martyr, and he want to bring Uchiha and Konoha to die together.
Compared to this kind of madman, the radical faction was gentle and harmless.
“I am radical? You are too weak.” In the face of the chiding of the elder, Dan was indifferent.
“Please leave, immediately!”
“Your idea is too crazy, it will only bring destruction to the Uchiha!”
Dan shook his head and turned to leave.
Clang.
The door was pushed open.
Inabi and Tetsuka were also stunned as they watched Dan leave, unable to say a word.
After Dan left the mansion, he didn’t take two steps before Uchiha Yashiro chased after him and shouted at his back,
“Uchiha Dan, I will pretend that today’s conversation didn’t happen. When you go back, if you dare to use the name of our faction to gather people, I will personally arrest you in prison!”
In the eyes of Yashiro.
Dan’s thoughts were too dangerous. Their radical faction could not be associated with this person.
Dan ignored the roar of Yashiro.
As the leader of the radical faction.
Yashiro was just the second in command of Uchiha, and it was even worse.
After interacting with the other party, Dan was convinced that this group of insects would not be able to successfully rebel.
He did not stop walking and walked past the corner.
Swish.
Under the cherry blossom tree, Fugaku quietly appeared, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
“Brother-in-law.” Dan was a little surprised and spked.
“What happened? Why did Yashiro threaten to arrest you and put you in prison?”
Fugaku’s poker face, which had remained unchanged for thousands of years, was also full of surprise at this time, and he asked about the story of his brother-in-law.
Dan answered truthfully, “As you can see, I couldn’t talk with those radical sects, and in the end, we parted unhappily.”
Fugaku heard this and couldn’t help but reveal a gratified smile.
He had been worried for a long time, and now that his brother-in-law had received a satisfactory answer, he was finally relieved.
“Dan, you did the right thing. If Yashiro and the others find trouble with you again, come to me. As your brother-in-law, I will help you.”
Fugaku said as he patted Dan’s shoulder.
“Thank you, brother-in-law.” Dan nodded.
“Hahaha.” Fugaku let out a hearty laugh.
Today, he finally felt that his relationship with his brother-in-law had become closer.
The two of them walked along the streets that were filled with cherry trees.
“Dan, I already knew that you are also a member of the moderate faction, right?” Fugaku asked.
“How did brother-in-law see through it?” Dan was puzzled.
“Isn’t it obvious?”
Fugaku crossed his arms over his chest, as if he had seen through Dan’s thoughts.
“Dan, although your appearance is bigger and fiercer than anyone else, but your heart is more gentle and kind than anyone else. This is what your sister Mikoto told me.
You are obviously strong, but you don’t want to become a ninja. Instead, you live like an ordinary person.
You even moved out alone, abandoned the surname of the Uchiha, and never stirred up trouble.
Is this not enough?”
He stared sharply at his brother-in-law.
“You are right, brother-in-law.”
Dan nodded. He was too lazy to argue. Instead, he followed Fugaku’s words and said, “I think everything that the Uchiha today is given by Konoha. No matter what happens, we should not go against the village. We should always take the interests of the village first.”
Fugaku heard this and suddenly stopped, frowning.
“Dan, you are too gentle!”
He looked serious and warned his brother-in-law, “Remember, being too gentle is a kind of weakness. We have to fight for things that belong to the Uchiha. Otherwise, others will only think that we are easy to bully. Do you understand?”
Fugaku was indeed a neutral.
He did not want his people to follow the will of fire and put the interests of Konoha before the family, nor did he want to be as radical as Yashiro and have a conflict of force with the village.
As the patriarch, he wanted to achieve a balance: while maintaining relations with Konoha, try to fight for the power of the Uchiha.
It was just that this kind of balance was very difficult to grasp.
Once one of the two factions in the clan completely gained power, he, as the clan leader, would be dragged into it.
In the end.
When the Moderate Sect had more people, he was the Moderate Sect. When the Radical Sect had more people, he became the Radical Sect.
The fence-sitter agreed.
“Brother-in-law is right.”
In the face of Fugaku’s earnest teachings, Dan agreed.
It was funny.
The radical faction thought that he was too radical, and the mild faction thought that he was too gentle.
Fugaku heard this and his expression eased.
The two chatted for a while and unconsciously walked to the intersection.
“I almost forgot the business.”
Fugaku came back to his senses and said to Dan solemnly, “Tonight is your sister’s birthday. She said that compared to receiving your gift, she wants your younger brother to come to our house and have a meal together.”
“… Okay. “
Dan did not reject his brother-in-law’s invitation in person this time.
“That’s great.”
Fugaku breathed a sigh of relief.
If he could not bring Dan back, he would not be able to see his wife’s smile for the next month.
Suddenly, Fugaku seemed to think of something.
“By the way, I heard from Itachi that… your gym has an employee who usually eats and stays with you. Then, bring her along.”
He said this with a profound expression.
“Okay, see you tonight.” Dan agreed and separated from Fugaku at the intersection.
…
Monitoring office.
Itachi went to work as usual, staring at the rows of monitoring screens and monitoring the district of the Uchiha clan.
Although he had never said anything on the surface, he still somewhat resisted this kind of task.
During this period.
He was at a loss, his eyes constantly switching between the surveillance screens.
Suddenly, he saw his uncle, Uchiha Dan, leave the clan grounds and walk into a big house with Uchiha Inabi.
After a while.
Dan walked out alone, but was stopped by his father, Fugaku. The two of them chatted on the side of the road for a while, as if they were having a good time.
What was going on?
Itachi stared at the screen intently, and his brain was quickly thinking.
Unknowingly, it was time to change shifts.
Itachi stood up and hurriedly got off work, trying to figure out what was going on as soon as possible.
At this moment.
Whether it was Itachi or the other surveillance staff, none of them noticed that the image of the Naka shrine in the surveillance screen suddenly showed a whirlpool-like distortion.
It disappeared in a flash.
