“What suggestion?” Danzo frowned.
Fugaku took a deep breath and said calmly in front of the crowd,
“Uchiha clan has decided to collectively resign from their duties and withdraw from the police department.”
What ? !
The moment he said this, it was like a bomb exploded in the conference room, causing an uproar.
The expressions on everyone’s faces became very interesting.
Even Sandaime was no exception.
This old Hokage had just picked up his pipe and was about to take a puff when he put it down before it reached his mouth. His eyes were full of surprise.
Uchiha was actually going to give up on the police department directly.
Is this… breaking the can?
Sandaime narrowed his eyes and thought of a possibility.
But based on his years of understanding of Fugaku and Uchiha, this kind of decision is not something that the Uchiha clan can make.
Danzo came to his senses and his face darkened. He asked Fugaku again, “Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
He felt that he had been played by the other party.
“You didn’t ask me,” Fugaku said lightly.
“Captain Fugaku, have you really thought it through?”
Sandaime interrupted and persuaded Fugaku with a serious face, “The police department was personally handed over to Uchiha by the second generation. It is both power and responsibility…”
“Lord Hokage!”
Fugaku interrupted Sandaime’s hypocritical persuasion and repeated it again with a firm attitude and tone, “Uchiha’s talent has withered and his ability is insufficient. He is no longer qualified to work for the police department. The decision to hand the police department back to the village was made by Uchiha’s people after a collective vote.”
Is that so?
When Sandaime heard this, he was silent for a few seconds and asked, “Then do you have any requests?”
He did not believe that the always arrogant Uchiha would hand over the fat meat of the police department without any conditions.
However.
“No.”
Fugaku answered decisively. At the same time, he suggested “selflessly”, “I only hope that the police department will be handed over to those truly capable families in the future. Only in this way will the village become better.”
After saying that, his eyes swept over Hyuga, Ino-Shika-Cho, Inuzuka, Aburame, and the others.
Take over the police department?
When everyone heard this, it was amazing.
Ever since the death of Senju’s clan, Uchiha had become Konoha’s number one clan, and the establishment of the police department had caused Uchiha’s reputation and power to reach the peak.
Now.
Whoever took over the police department would take over Uchiha’s position and become the new Konoha’s number one clan.
For a moment, everyone could not sit still.
After listening to Fugaku’s clear statement.
Danzo bent down and began to discuss with Sandaime. Koharu and Homura also joined.
Below, a group of Clan leader also whispered, all thinking of getting a share of the fat meat from the police department.
Fugaku saw everyone’s reaction and sneered in his heart.
He finally experienced the fun of playing monkey.
Fight, fight.
Uchiha, We won’t play with you from now on.
In the waiting room next door.
“Why is it not over yet?” Dan opened his eyes and asked Shisui beside him.
“Wait patiently. This kind of Clan leader level meeting starts at least half an hour. Even if it ends at noon, it is normal.”
Shisui explained.
But his heart was actually much more anxious than Dan, and he urgently wanted to know the progress of the meeting.
Dan thought about it.
If it was the extremely sinister and smart second generation Hokage, Tobirama, he would definitely not agree to Uchiha giving up the police department.
Instead, he would use the pillar of the police department to firmly tie Uchiha up.
Could the current top management of Konoha, F4, realize this?
Also.
If his cheap brother-in-law peed his pants after entering the conference room and failed to stand up, he would be held down by Konoha’s top management.
Wouldn’t it be a wasted trip today?
He couldn’t wait like this.
He had to find an excuse to enter the conference room to see the situation.
Just as he was thinking, a burst of smoke suddenly came over, causing Dan to frown.
On the opposite sofa.
A man with a goatee seemed to be impatient from waiting too long. He took out a lighter from his pocket and lit a cigarette.
“This is a public place.” Dan reminded.
“Aha, sorry, I’ll pinch it off immediately.”
Asuma smiled awkwardly. Although he said that, he took a deep breath and puffed out a thick smoke.
Then, he threw the cigarette butt into the trash can next to him.
Swish.
Dan used his hand to fan away the smoke and his expression became even more unfriendly.
“Do you know the harm of second-hand smoke? You are trying to harm me and the patient beside me.”
When Asuma heard this, he was stunned at first, but then he said with an unhappy face,
“What do you want? I have apologized.”
If not for the sake of accompanying his girlfriend, Yūhi Kurenai, he wouldn’t have come to this kind of boring meeting.
As the son of the third generation Hokage, the son of Konoha Village who had a bright and upright background, Asuma had a rebellious personality since he was young and was once a bad youth.
His temper wasn’t any better.
Moreover.
As the owner of Konoha Village, Asuma doesn’t like the cancer of the village like Uchiha even more.
“Dan, forget it.”
Shisui felt that the atmosphere was not right and quickly tried to cool it down. He heard from the voice that the other party was Sandaime’s son. Uchiha could not afford to offend such a person.
But it was too late.
Swoosh.
Dan’s gaze turned cold, and he immediately jumped up and grabbed Asuma by the collar.
He lifted him up from the sofa.
In the room, there was a sudden exclamation.
In the conference room.
“Hiruzen, what are you hesitating for? Hurry up and seize this opportunity to launch Clan leader’s vote to completely take the police department back from Uchiha.”
Danzo kept urging.
“Don’t worry, I still feel that something is wrong. It may not necessarily be a good thing for Uchiha to hand over the police department.”
Sandaime said slowly, frowning and thinking.
As Hokage, not only did he have to consider for the village, but he also needed to consider for Uchiha clan.
This was called the big picture view.
Homura and Koharu, who were on the side, also fell into deep thought when they heard this. “Could it be that Uchiha is really plotting something?”
Just at this moment.
Bang!
A dull loud noise suddenly came from the next door of the conference room, startling everyone.
Clan leader looked in the direction of the voice.
Crack.
A huge crack appeared on the wall opposite the conference table, and it quickly spread out. A few seconds later –
Boom.
Under everyone’s stunned gazes, the entire wall collapsed.
The meeting room and waiting room were opened up just like that, turning into one room.
What was going on?
Before everyone could react, they heard a “whoosh” sound, and a figure flew backwards, smashing onto the meeting table.
After seeing the other person’s appearance clearly.
“Asuma!”
A woman with black hair and red eyes rushed forward in panic.
Her name was Yūhi Kurenai. She was a member of the famous Genjutsu family, Yūhi family. Ever since her father, Yūhi Makoto, passed away, she took over Clan leader’s position.
She was also Asuma’s girlfriend, Sandaime’s future daughter-in-law.
What the hell was going on?
There was actually someone who dared to attack Lord Hokage’s son in such a place. Apart from Uchiha, there shouldn’t be anyone else in the entire Konoha who could do such a thing, right?
Everyone guessed right.
Under everyone’s horrified gaze, Dan strode over the broken wall and entered the conference room.
Swoosh.
In an instant, all of Clan leader who was present stood up and uniformly looked at Dan.
The guards in the waiting room also surrounded him, pulling out their weapons and aiming them at him.
Tap Tap Tap.
A burst of rapid footsteps came from outside the corridor, and a large number of Anbu Ninjas rushed into the two rooms that had been opened up, further forming a pair.
In just a dozen seconds, he was surrounded.
slap slap.
Dan calmly stretched out his hand, patted off the dust on his clothes, and then looked around.
At this time.
Opposite the conference table in front of him was Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had ruled over Konoha Village as Hokage for forty years and was known as the strongest Hokage in history, as well as Danzo, Koharu, and Homura, three higher-ups.
On both sides were Hyuga Hiashi, Akimichi Chouza, Yamanaka Inoichi, Nara Shikaku, Aburame Shibi, and more than twenty Konoha and Clan leader.
Behind him were Nara Suzaku, Akimichi Dōtō, and more than thirty elite guards.
In addition.
There were also Anbu, who wore all kinds of eagles, tigers, cows, cats, stork, elephants, and kirin masks. There were more than forty people, waiting for Sandaime to give the order, and they would attack at any time.
Dan even saw a white haired Kakashi standing outside the door, looking like he was slacking.
Nearly a hundred people.
Almost all of Konoha Village’s elite Ninjas were gathered here.
No one spoke.
Everyone’s eyes were locked on to Dan.
The solemn atmosphere was like a huge mountain pressing down on Dan’s head. The invisible pressure came wave after wave, and everyone’s eyes were like swords stabbing all over his body.
All of this made Dan feel unprecedented…
Indifference.
