Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan.

Chapter 92 The Uchiha Gradually Integrating (55)

As soon as Hiashi Hyuga finished speaking, all the Third Hokage's eyes turned to him.

"As the elder brother, I would never want my younger brother to die in my place. I simply cannot do that!"

As he spoke, Hiashi raised his head and looked at the many clan leaders: "Although this was a premeditated attack by Kumogakure, if war breaks out, both Hizashi and I are willing to be the first to go to the battlefield! Either the war ends, or Hizashi and I die in battle!"

Each word resonated deeply. Hizashi, who had been heartbroken, now stood silently behind Hiashi, supporting his brother's words with his actions.

Koharu looked at the two of them and frowned, saying, "If Hizashi were to die in your place, it would only cost the life of one branch family member. But if war breaks out, both of you could lose your lives on the battlefield."

At this moment, Uchiha Yun stepped forward and said, "Dying on the battlefield to kill the enemy is completely different from being forced to commit suicide by the village and handing yourself over to the enemy!"

Yun then looked at the various clan leaders behind him: "The various clans have united to form the Hidden Leaf Village we know today. We are willing to die in battle for Konoha, but we will not allow the village to force us to commit suicide!"

Mitokado Homura looked at Uchiha Kumo: "Everyone here is the head of their respective clans. Uchiha Kumo, what is your status standing here? Can you represent the Uchiha's decisions?"

Just as Shisui was about to speak, Yun stopped him with a gesture.

Then Uchiha Yun looked at Mitokado Homura and the others: "Wherever leaves dance in the air, fire will burn. The fire's shadow will illuminate the village and cause new leaves to sprout..."

"I am just a new leaf on the leaf of Konoha, and so are Hizashi!"

"But I don't see the fire burning, nor do I see its shadow illuminating the village."

"All I see now is you, the older generation, transformed into fiery monsters, ready to devour and burn the newly sprouted leaves of Konoha!"

Choza Akimichi slowly stepped forward from behind: "Although our initial intention in establishing Konoha was to prevent future children from being forced to go to the battlefield at a young age, that does not mean we are afraid of war!"

Yamanaka Inoichi spoke up: "Today, Hizashi of the Hyuga clan died for peace. Tomorrow, will we also need to die to seek the continuation of peace?"

The unassuming Aburame Shiki slowly walked behind Amo: "I don't want to be forced to die one day, just like Ryoma went to Root."

……

The support from the clan leaders of Konoha caught the two advisors somewhat off guard.

Finally, Shikaku spoke up: "Peace is never something you beg for. If Kumogakure wants war, then we'll give them war!"

"The Ino-Shika-Cho trio are also willing to go to the battlefield alongside the Hyuga and Uchiha!!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned deeply: "You guys..."

Yun interrupted him: "Third Hokage, since the founding of Konoha, Konoha's victories in the three Shinobi World Wars were not achieved through prayer."

"I've heard that when the First Hokage was still alive, no one dared to invade Konoha! Peace... has always been built on absolute power. Only by stopping war with war, and preventing Kumogakure from daring to push its luck, can we make the truly correct decision!"

As soon as he finished speaking...

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the group before him, sighed, and then fixed his gaze on Kakashi: "Was this decision also Minato's decision?"

Kakashi didn't hesitate this time, nodding as he said, "Our teacher has already sent the messenger frog to inform Jiraiya-sama to return to the village. Although I'm the only one left from the Hatake clan, I agree with what Uchiha Un said!"

"Peace that sacrifices the lives of our fellow villagers is not the peace Konoha needs, nor is it what Hatake needs! If that's the case, I'm equally willing to fight Kumogakure on the battlefield!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded slightly, looked at everyone, and said, "Return my direct ANBU to Minato's command, cancel the Hyuga's surveillance, and be ready for war at any time."

"Hiruzen!!"

Mitokado Homura was about to retort when the Third Hokage raised his hand to stop him. After exhaling, he looked at Kakashi and said, "Tell Minato that although I am the Third Hokage, from the moment the war began, I, like the ninja of Konoha, have been under his command!"

Then, Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Shisui Uchiha and Un: "This time, I will trust you as I trusted your ancestor, Kagami Uchiha, back then. Uchiha... never let me down!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hiruzen Sarutobi walked through the crowd and headed straight out.

Although his desolate figure was old, he was still the same stoic hero who would step forward and decide to cover the rear alone.

The two Hokage advisors exchanged a glance, and then followed Hiruzen Sarutobi away.

The Uchiha clan, capable of using their wits to unite all the clans to exert pressure, cannot be insane. And if they are not insane, then the Uchiha clan will not take this opportunity to rebel.

The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, also considered this point, which is why he ultimately offered his support.

This generation of Uchiha not only has ninjas like Kagami, but also possesses Uchiha Kumo, an Uchiha with wisdom comparable to that of the Second Hokage...

After Hiruzen Sarutobi and his two advisors left, Hiashi Hyuga lowered his head and said, "Hiruzen, from today onwards, you are stripped of your position as a main family elder! Hyuga, today and in the future, will not make the decision to have a branch family member die in your place!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hizashi looked at his older brother for the first time.

Although Hiashi had mentioned brotherly affection more than once since childhood, never before had this feeling been presented to him like it was now.

"Elder brother, even after the family splits up, the main family will always come first!"

Rizu nodded slightly, then looked at the speechless Elder Ritian.

How can an old man poisoned by such stubborn and inflexible thinking truly gain the support of a family division?

"Hisashi, you'll regret this!"

The Hyuga clan elders, who had collapsed to the ground, were taken away, and Hiashi slowly walked up to the group of Konoha clan leaders.

After bowing ninety degrees, he stood up and said, "No matter how you look at it, this matter arose because of the Hyuga clan. Hiashi hereby promises everyone that as long as the war continues, my Hyuga clan will not leave the battlefield!!"

After exchanging pleasantries, Shikaku smiled and said, "If the Hyuga clan leader wants to express his gratitude, he should thank the Uchiha properly. If Uchiha Yun hadn't informed us, we probably wouldn't have received the news until everything was completely settled."

Hiashi turned around and bowed ninety degrees to Shisui and Yun, but the two avoided him.

Shisui waved his hand and replied, "The Uchiha are also a clan of Konoha, they were before, and they will be in the future."

The meaning is self-evident, but it is clear that from today onwards, the Konoha clan will have one more member, the Uchiha, who has always been excluded.
