Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 671 Thinking and Discovery
Soon, the two arrived at Uchiha Fugaku's house.

Unlike the remote little courtyard left to him by his previous life's parents, the place where Uchiha Fugaku lives is much more luxurious.

As the patriarch of the Uchiha clan, the place where he lives is not only located in the most prosperous area in the center of the clan, but also occupies a large area.

There are pavilions, towers, rockery and flowing water inside, which can be said to have everything you need.

The two walked for several minutes, finally crossed a pond of moderate size, and finally arrived outside the reception room.

An Uchiha came over and led the two of them inside.

The deputy captain of the security department gave instructions to Qingming and turned away.

After he left, the Uchiha clan member offered Qingming a cup of tea and said that Uchiha Fugaku had some things to do and would come to see him later, so he asked him to wait for a while.

Qing Ming heard this and nodded.
However, he originally thought that he would have to wait for a few minutes at most before the other party came out to see him.

Unexpectedly, he had already drunk three cups of tea, but Uchiha Fugaku still didn't come over.

Looking at the Uchiha servant who was refilling his tea for the fourth time, Qing Ming asked directly, "How long will it take for the clan leader to come?"

Upon hearing this, the man said the same thing again, saying that Uchiha Fugaku was still busy and asked him to wait a moment.

Qingming looked at this unyielding Uchiha servant, his expression became slightly dangerous, and his eyes seemed to be turning into Sharingan.

However, although this Uchiha clan member did not have the qualifications of a ninja, he had a good character and managed to complete his work under such pressure.

After pouring tea for Qingming, he returned to the side and stood there quietly like a statue.

Qingming looked at the other party and thought, "A show of strength?"

He was called over, but he was reluctant to show up. If this isn't a show of force, then what is it?
However, on second thought, it doesn’t seem like it, or not entirely.

With the memories of his previous life, he had some understanding of Uchiha Fugaku.

To put it in a positive way, it means being indecisive; to put it in a negative way, it means being easily influenced by others.

For example, after the Nine-Tailed Fox Rebellion, in order to take the so-called overall situation into consideration, they followed the village's arrangements and moved the clan's land from the center of the village to a remote place.

This immediately created a physical separation between the Uchiha clan and the village, which greatly accelerated the accumulation of conflicts between the two sides.

For example, after the relocation, the conflicts between the two sides intensified, and the tribesmen could not stand the exclusion, so they began to petition him collectively and demanded a coup.

As a high-ranking official in Konoha, he knew very well that such a coup would be almost impossible to succeed, but he still agreed.

This petition, although called a petition, is actually more like collective pressure.

But it was this kind of pressure that made him succumb.

These are all evidence of his character flaws.

In addition, there were repeated vacillations and endless meetings during the coup, all of which demonstrated his indecisiveness.

Since the decision has been made to stage a coup, naturally the fewer people who know about it the better, and the more sudden the action is, the better. How could he be like him, making it known to everyone, as if he was afraid that the villagers didn't know about it? It's really ridiculous!

In addition, he has some problems in judging people, or his judgment is too easily influenced by personal emotions.

During the entire coup process, he clearly gave his son excessive trust.

It was this blind trust that became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

If it weren't for Uchiha Itachi, even if the Uchiha clan's coup d'état failed in the end, the entire clan would not have ended up being wiped out.

At the very least, those ordinary members of the tribe will not die out.

Because whether it is out of consideration for face or the thoughts of other families, the village is unlikely to kill all those ordinary people.

At most, they would be kept under strict surveillance, and like the Senju clan, they would slowly die out, or be integrated into the village. What?
Didn't you say there is still a Sasuke alive?
Not to mention killing the entire family, just to save his own younger brother, how crazy and selfish is this behavior?
The mere existence of Sasuke seems more like a handle deliberately left by Konoha in order to control Uchiha Itachi.

Perhaps when watching the comic movie in the previous life, Qing Ming could still shout out "Itachi God" when he saw Uchiha Itachi planning everything and giving up everything for his younger brother.

But when he really came to this world and became a member of the Uchiha clan, thinking about his own destiny, he was completely indifferent to Uchiha Itachi.

If it weren't for the fact that the two world lines were not connected, Qingming would have gotten rid of the other party as soon as he returned to the village.

Even so, after discovering the 'Illusion: Darkness Walking Technique', a very powerful illusion technique that could restrain the Sharingan, he learned it as soon as possible.

Obviously, even now, he still doesn't feel at ease with this traitor.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, and Qingming was basically certain that Uchiha Fugaku left his belly here not just to show his power.

Then, there is only one possibility left.

Perhaps, the other party is currently investigating what the news circulating in the village this morning was about, and whether it has anything to do with him?

Only by having enough intelligence can he take the initiative in the next meeting with him.

This is the instinct of being the head of a clan.

After thinking this through, Qing Ming simply stopped wasting time and started practicing openly.

However, he did not rashly practice the 'Art of Reflecting the Heart'.

Indeed, the 'Art of Reflecting the Heart' that he is practicing now is very different from the 'Art of Reflecting the Heart' developed by the ancestors of the Uchiha clan.

However, its roots ultimately lie in the 'Heart-Reflecting Technique' developed by the Uchiha predecessors.

If Uchiha Fugaku had studied this technique, he would have discovered some clues, although this possibility is not high.
After all, both Uchiha Fugaku himself and his son have very good qualifications, so there is no need to pay attention to this kind of "ambitious but incompetent" life-saving straw.

But don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality.

Qingming doesn't want to expose his ability to mass-produce the Mangekyō Sharingan before he becomes invincible.

So, he decided not to take the risk.

What's more, he was not the only one nearby, there were several Uchiha ninjas hiding in the open and in secret.

Their aptitude is not as good as Uchiha Fugaku's. Maybe they have studied the 'Heart-Reflecting Technique' early on, just like their previous parents.

Therefore, the possibility of recognition is not small.

Therefore, to be on the safe side, Qingming still practiced the "Palm Immortal Technique" to strengthen his body.

During this process, he referred to what he read in the book today, constantly adjusting the Yang Release Chakra injected into his body, and gradually exploring higher efficiency.

I don't know if it's because he's too proficient in the 'Palm Immortal Technique', or because of the 'Control of Man' - the ability to control his body, or because of the proficiency panel.

All in all, his progress was very smooth, and he could feel noticeable improvement with almost every attempt.

At this rate, it would not take five or six days, but at most three or four days, for his body to reach the critical point of transformation.

Qingming was delighted and immediately devoted more energy to cultivation.

Time passes minute by minute.

While there were undercurrents in the village outside, Qingming's place was stable.

Before I knew it, more than two hours had passed and it was already late at night.
