Konoha: We, the Uchiha, are ready to give up!

"Leading a small team through the Land of Whirlpools for six days, dodging the main force of the Hidden Mist Village countless times, and still managing to kill so many Hidden Mist Village ninjas."

"Especially in the hands of one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, Suigetsu Hozuki, he escaped with two ninjas for half a day and successfully held out until the main force of Konoha arrived."

"Why, exactly?"

"Since you have this ability, why don't you show it?"

He seemed slightly agitated.

He had been thinking about Uchiha Jin's behavior for several days, but he still couldn't understand it.

He just stared at Uchiha Jin, his eyes filled with thought and confusion.

He really doesn't understand.

However, on the other side...

Uchiha Jin responded casually, "What else could it be? I just don't want to."

"Why are you unwilling?" Zhi Shui quickly pressed for an answer.

"I don't want to get involved in the mess between the village and the Uchiha." Uchiha Jin's tone was calm, with a hint of disdain: "In my opinion, the Uchiha are doomed and destined to be wiped out."

"If I were to display my talent, I would definitely be recruited by those good-for-nothings in the clan."

"And I don't want to get too involved with the Uchiha clan, because if I do, I'll definitely be held accountable by the village when they are wiped out."

"Although my surname is Uchiha, I am not deeply connected with the clan."

Why should I die for the Uchiha?

"Isn't this great? When the Uchiha are wiped out, I'll most likely be spared as an orphan. Anyway, I don't have any feelings for the Uchiha."

"Even in the worst-case scenario, the worst I can do is become a rogue ninja."

"Because he didn't have a deep relationship with the Uchiha, the intensity of the village's pursuit was definitely not high. Most likely, they would just put a bounty on the black market."

hiss!

Shisui was completely dumbfounded by what Uchiha Jin said.

His mind went completely blank.

He had considered countless possibilities, but this was the one he had never thought of.

But, how is it possible?

How could the Uchiha clan and village be wiped out...?

wrong!

It's impossible!

Shisui took a deep breath and quickly whispered words of comfort.

"Jin, you can rest assured that there will be no conflict between the clan and Konoha."

“I have been working on this for years, and I assure you that what you are worried about will not happen.”

"I will definitely find a way to deal with the radicals within the clan."

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Upon hearing these words, Uchiha Jin couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Um, sorry."

"I don't usually laugh unless I really can't help it."

"But Shisui, could you please stop telling jokes?"

"What radical faction is there in the Uchiha clan? If there really were, would the Uchiha clan have turned into this mess?"

"In my opinion, there are only moderates and surrenderers in the clan now, plus a useless clan leader."

"But that's normal!"

“Old relics from the Warring States period, like the Uchiha clan, are destined to be unable to adapt to the rules of the new era.”

"Being wiped out is inevitable, it's only a matter of time."

"A day earlier or later doesn't make much difference."

Chapter Thirty-Seven: Why? Because you are very strong!

Uchiha Jin spoke freely.

He had made this preparation long before leaving Konoha.

A hero with three gangs.

Even in this world of high martial arts, he still needs real helpers. He naturally remembered the kindness Shisui had shown him in Konoha.

He's not a heartless or ungrateful person.

He would help Shisui whenever possible.

Under these circumstances, necessary information cannot be concealed.

He's cunning, but not cowardly.

Even knowing that the water could get out of control, the necessary risks are acceptable.

Not to mention.

After talking with Nara Kazama, he had a clearer plan for the future and immediately decided to take a risk and talk to Shisui a little more.

As long as you control the frequency, you can try to change it little by little.

He believes it!

Even if Shisui was brainwashed by Hiruzen Sarutobi, he could gradually bring him back to his senses.

After all, he was just brainwashed, not completely brainless.

Not to mention that he didn't say anything bad about Hiruzen Sarutobi this time; he was only commenting on matters within the Uchiha clan. It's unlikely that Shisui would report him to the Hokage.

He had already conducted the experiment.

Before leaving Konoha, he told Shisui some things.

If he had reported him to the Hokage, then Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't have remained inactive during that time.

Now that we've done it once, how far away is the second time?

Therefore, after saying these words, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes and look at Shisui, who had a completely bewildered expression.

Yes.

At this moment, Shisui's mind went completely blank.

He clearly hadn't expected that Uchiha Jin would have such a high opinion of his clan.

His brows furrowed, and he couldn't help but speak.

"I don't understand."

"Jin, why do you say that?"

Uchiha Jin let out a long sigh.

He took a deep look at the still water before speaking in a low voice.

"First, the so-called radicals."

"In my opinion, that's a joke."

"Zhishui, you need to understand, a dog that bites doesn't bark."

"If we really want to change the armed forces, we should keep quiet to everyone, prepare in secret, and even grovel and act like dogs, waiting for the Third Hokage to relax his guard before striking ruthlessly and completely eliminating any who dare to resist."

"But what about those so-called radicals within our own tribe?"

"Don't be fooled by his loud boasting; he doesn't dare to actually make a move, not even to secretly kill a few of the Hokage's subordinates."

"Let him consider this: they've been making these pronouncements for so long, but have they really made any preparations?"

"No, nothing!"

"They're just chanting slogans to gain the support of a segment of the tribe."

"Their real goal is simply to compete with Fugaku for power."

"The same applies to moderates."

"They thought that with radicals charging in, the village would definitely be more inclined to win them over. To put it bluntly, it was all about vying for power and profit."

"But these two factions don't understand; they're just shouting slogans, while the villagers are taking it seriously."

"Don't they think with their stupid brains? You keep shouting about rebellion every day, do they really think the people in power don't care?"

"Not to mention the Uchiha, who are a group of mentally unstable beings who could go insane at any moment."
