I became Hokage in Tokyo

Chapters 477 and 478: Inviting someone to a banquet for beheading, accepting someone as a dog.

The moment the fully-formed Susanoo spread its wings in the waters off Iwo Jima and took off toward the New World, everyone at the military base felt like the sky was about to fall.

Some people knelt on the ground and prayed to the Almighty Lord, begging Him to cast the purple demon into hell.

There were also urgent telegrams to the Ministry of National Defense warning that war preparations must be made, and all fighter jets should be scrambled to intercept the enemy outside the border.

Those with the weakest psychological resilience fainted on the spot; of course, they were among the luckiest.

Whether it was due to sincere prayer or not, a miracle finally occurred.

The Uchiha Sage Sect intervened, and the Complete Body Susanoo showed leniency, seemingly abandoning its plan to directly descend upon the mainland to demand retribution and instead turning back.

When this scene was seen in satellite images, the base was on the verge of collapse. The desperate crowd was suddenly granted a reprieve and erupted in cheers that were like a landslide and a tsunami, almost bursting through the roof.

"Susanoo flew back! Flyed back!"

"Great! The United States will not perish!"

"Waaaaah!"

After a while, the survivors were still weak and could barely stand up, their faces filled with lingering fear.

"It seems that the Uchiha Sage Sect intervened and persuaded Uchiha Sasuke to return."

"After all, they are extraordinary beings born and raised in modern Japan, and have been exposed to human civilization. The Uchiha Sage Sect is not like those barbarians and monsters from other worlds who know nothing but violence."

Several hawkish politicians and generals who advocated launching nuclear missiles huddled together, their faces ashen yet tinged with barely concealed relief.

Although the gamble failed, fortunately, Sasuke Uchiha did not fly over directly to retaliate, which gave them some breathing room and room to maneuver.

Of course, this mess still needs to be cleaned up.

Although they had always been among the people at the center of power in this country, they all knew they were doomed.

Not only will they have to step down in disgrace, but the political factions behind them will also pay a heavy price.

"Now we should consider how to negotiate with the Uchiha Sage Sect, and not escalate the situation any further." The well-dressed old white man at the head of the group sighed, his lips twitching.

Although he didn't know the Eastern proverb "A gentleman can be deceived by his principles," the principle was the same. The Uchiha Senmon were modern civilized people and wouldn't destroy a country and massacre a city in a fit of anger.

Compared to the unknown Uchiha Sasuke, the Uchiha Senmon was clearly a more suitable negotiating partner.

It's unclear how much flesh and blood the United States will have to shed to appease the Uchiha clan's anger and stop them from pursuing the matter further.

Do you support him becoming the new Emperor of Japan?

"So that's where it was hidden."

Just then, a whisper from behind them sent chills down their spines.

Everyone turned their heads reflexively, and what came into view was a pair of scarlet Sharingan eyes.

"Uchiha...Uchiha Senmon!"

The old white man was deathly pale, and his tongue seemed to be tied in knots as he stammered.

The others also noticed the Uchiha Senmon who had appeared there as if by teleportation, and their hands and feet immediately went cold, as if they had fallen into an ice cave.

This secret base is tens of thousands of kilometers away from Iwo Jima, and it's top secret. How could he have found it so quickly?

"They're all unfamiliar faces. Isn't the president here?"

Uchiha Senmon coldly surveyed the surroundings, then fixed his gaze on the old white man's eyes. After a moment, he said thoughtfully:

"Oh, I see."

The Uchiha Sage Sect had previously seized Japan effortlessly using the Sharingan, and the United States was wary that he might repeat the same tactic against the United States.

The Grand Commander and other high-ranking officials who had previously met with the Uchiha Sage Sect were all secretly suspended from their duties and placed under house arrest.

This is precisely why these stubborn and greedy fools were able to take advantage of the situation and try to reap the benefits without lifting a finger.

However, the US side's considerations were not wrong. The Uchiha Sage Sect did indeed do something behind the scenes, otherwise they wouldn't have come knocking on their door so quickly.

"What did you do to me!?"

After the old white man's lifeless eyes regained their light, his expression immediately changed drastically, and he hissed:

"You've read my memories, you demon..."

A politician nearby hurriedly covered the old white man's mouth, then bowed and scraped to the Uchiha Sage Clan with a fawning expression.

"Mr. Uchiha! Lord Uchiha! It's all a misunderstanding! We only wanted to destroy the Nine-Tailed Fox!"

"Yes, yes, yes! It was an accidental explosion, all an accidental explosion!"

"Were all five nuclear warheads accidentally detonated?"

Such a clumsy explanation enraged Uchiha Senmon, who then laughed in exasperation. He stretched out his hand, and a ripple appeared in the void.

Before everyone's horrified eyes, a massive black weapon slowly emerged from mid-air.

A nuclear bomb!?

The two missing nuclear warheads are actually in the hands of the Uchiha Senmon!

"How about I accidentally bomb it once too?"

Before the words were finished, the car-sized nuclear warhead slammed onto the floor.

A deafening "bang" resounded, like a heavy hammer slamming into the hearts of everyone in the operations room. All turned pale, their legs buckling as they knelt on the ground. One officer was even so terrified he lost control of his bladder and bowels.

"snort."

Seeing the ugly state of these people, Uchiha Senmon snorted coldly.

A nuclear warhead certainly cannot explode upon impact.

"I'll give you one hour to get the president to come to the White House to see me."

Then, Uchiha Senmon wiped his right hand and stored the nuclear warhead into the Kamui dimension.

However, he did not leave. His Sharingan, gleaming with a cold light, glanced forward, and a chilling killing intent surged forth.

"Monster, even if you kill me, there are still millions more like me in the Land of Freedom!"

The elderly white man awaiting trial instantly understood his fate. In despair, his ferocity was unleashed, and he began to curse:

"The will of Heaven is clear: the free will of humanity will never be destroyed! God Bless America!"

"Noisy."

Uchiha Senmon swung a fireball, turning the old white man and his accomplices into torches before they vanished.

-

The White House in Washington, D.C.

Although it was late at night, the White House was still brightly lit and surrounded by ambassadors from various countries and reporters from major newspapers who had been waiting outside all night.

The massive battle between the three tailed beasts, and the earth-shattering fight of the fully-formed Susanoo, naturally shook the world.

After the cataclysmic changes, the resurrected Tailed Beasts were not just one or two; the Tailed Beasts caused mountains and cities to collapse, a phenomenon seen all over the world, and people were starting to get numb to it.

However, the iconic mushroom cloud rising over Iwo Jima signified the first time nuclear weapons were used on the battlefield in this extraordinary era—a truly unprecedented event.

Although the US has remained silent and has not admitted anything, all the evidence points to the US.

Every country and every person is anxiously awaiting a response from the White House.

Half the world stayed up all night!

"Huff! Huff!"

A black helicopter landed urgently on the helipad in front of the White House.

"It's the President!"

The reporters present immediately recognized the blond old man who came down from the helicopter and swarmed towards him, but were stopped by iron fences and stern-faced guards.

"President, what happened on Iwo Jima?"

"Has this been another instance of us dropping our final weapon on Japan?! What were the results!?"

In front of countless flashing cameras, the usually flamboyant president, with a dark expression, walked silently inside, followed by several familiar faces of high-ranking political officials.

"Am I feeling okay right now?"

After checking left and right several times, the president forced a smile and reluctantly knocked on the office door.

"Please come in."

After several years in the White House, this was the first time the president had felt the doorknob of his own office was so heavy.

"Welcome, welcome. It may sound strange, but you are the owner here."

The president gritted his teeth and pushed the door open, nearly fainting from fright at the first sight.

A huge nuclear warhead was placed steadily in the center of the office!

If those reporters running outside knew there was such a treasure inside, they would probably scatter ten times faster.

Fortunately, a diplomat behind him caught the president in time, preventing the old man from falling to the ground.

"Your Excellency President, please pull yourself together. The fate of the nation rests on your shoulders now."

The president nodded, took a deep breath, and greeted the black-haired man who had taken his throne with a beaming smile:

"Good evening, Mr. Uchiha."

"President, these are extraordinary times, so I'll keep it brief."

Although the Uchiha Senmon's expression was calm and his tone was gentle, the Grand Commander and the other officials still dared not breathe loudly.

"How do you explain your country's attack on my clansman, Uchiha Sasuke?"

The president was jolted awake and immediately swore that he had nothing to do with it, shifting all the blame onto those few dead men.

His words were somewhat sincere. This gentleman had previously been too flamboyant and had taken several photos with the Uchiha clan. He was blacklisted because he was suspected of being hypnotized by the Sharingan, but he turned out to be a blessing in disguise and stayed out of trouble.

After speaking, the president gave a wink to the person behind him, and the secretary quickly presented the draft treaty to the Uchiha Senmon.

"On behalf of the United States, I hereby swear an oath to conclude a peace treaty with the Uchiha clan, and under the witness of God, we will never be enemies!"

The president took a Bible from his pocket, placed one hand on it, and swore an oath, word by word.

"That's all?"

The Uchiha Sage glanced at the documents that had been presented to him and sneered:

"Using what rightfully belongs to someone else as a bargaining chip—what a clever way to use someone else's resources! Truly befitting a businessman, President."

The president and the important figures behind him exchanged bewildered glances.

The compensation terms they offered were tantamount to ceding Japan, a colony, to the Uchiha clan, while guaranteeing that the Uchiha clan would be treated as an equal power.

This is already enough of a loss of sovereignty and national humiliation for the world's number one superpower, yet the Uchiha Sage Sect is still not satisfied?

"Let's get straight to the point. I have only one condition."

Seeing the changes in their expressions, Uchiha Senmon shook his index finger and smiled slightly:

"Until the apocalyptic crisis is resolved, this country must submit to the Uchiha and obey my commands."

The president and everyone else turned pale, and after a long pause, someone tentatively spoke:

"Do you mean the Uchiha clan wants to establish a strategic alliance with our country?"

"You're all smart people, do I really need to spell it out for you?"

Uchiha Senmon chuckled and retorted, "..."

"At my command, you must act like hunting dogs, rushing to pounce and bite wherever your master points."

Isn't this like being a dog?

Everyone's eyelids twitched wildly, and their lips twitched uncontrollably.

"This is going too far; neither the parliament nor the people will accept it..."

Do you think there's still room for negotiation?

Uchiha Senmon chuckled, got up from his seat, walked to the vicinity of the nuclear warhead, and hit its steel casing heavily a few times.

"Thump!"

"Thump!"

Although he knew it wouldn't explode, with each tap of the Uchiha Senmon's hand, the Grand Commander's face grew paler, his body shrunk, and his voice weakened.

This isn't about hitting nuclear warheads, it's about hitting them!

For these important figures, nuclear warheads are more of a deterrent than Susanoo.

"The power of a nuclear explosion is nothing more than a firecracker compared to the divine power of Susanoo."

Uchiha Senmon remained calm and stated the facts in a straightforward manner:

"Both I and Sasuke possess the power to destroy this country. And you are powerless against the Uchiha clan."

Everyone felt a chill run down their spines.

Armed with two nuclear weapons, he could even instantly teleport to the Uchiha Sage's realm on the other side of the world. Just by taking a trip around major cities with nuclear warheads, national order would collapse.

Uchiha Sasuke goes without saying; he's a monster that even a nuclear explosion couldn't kill.

Both Uchiha Senmon and Uchiha Sasuke possess the destructive power to bring the world's strongest nation to its lowest point.

Answer me, human!

Uchiha Senmon's Sharingan swirled, radiating an aura of indifferent holiness, like that of a god.

The president closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice:

"agree!"

I did it to save America.

The other political figures exchanged glances, their eyes filled with sorrow.

They were all seasoned veterans in the business and political arenas, but for the Uchiha clan's absolute violence, which was capable of destroying the world, their schemes and political rules were nothing more than child's play.

It is an utter disgrace that the world's largest nation has been forced to bow down to a mere few Uchiha.

But it seems there is no other choice at the moment.

"agree."

"agree."

……

Uchiha Senmon nodded slightly. He did not want to start a war with the United States when the end of the world was approaching. Since the president and others were so sensible, there was no need to be polite before resorting to force.

After the verbal agreement was reached, the Uchiha Senmon opened the Kamui dimension and prepared to return to Japan.

As for signing a contract, that's definitely unnecessary.

An agreement can be torn up at any time; the power of the Uchiha clan is the key to forcing the United States to bow down.

"Your Majesty, what about the last nuclear bomb?"

Seeing that the Uchiha Sage Sect was about to leave, the Grand Commander felt a pang of anxiety and asked, forcing himself to speak.

"Since I've come all the way to the United States, I'll keep the last one as a local specialty."

Uchiha Senmon glanced at the nuclear warhead behind him and said calmly.

What difference does one nuclear warhead make compared to two? As long as it can destroy the enemy once, that's enough.

After all, the greatest deterrent power of nuclear weapons is not their explosion, but their placement on the launch pad.

However, we should also give the United States a glimmer of hope.

"If you're obedient enough, I might give them back to you if I'm in a good mood."

Leaving behind a final, meaningful warning, Uchiha Senmon stepped into the vortex opened by Kamui and disappeared.

"Offer your loyalty to the Uchiha clan, and the sun of this country will rise as usual tomorrow."
