Transmigrating as the Third Hokage: Make Konoha Great Again!

Fugaku Uchiha's expression turned strange as he thought about the abilities Orochimaru had displayed.

It wasn't that he lacked emotional intelligence; he deliberately commented on Orochimaru as "like a monster" on the spot.

That posture was simply too grotesque...

The snake spits me out, I spits out the snake, then the snake spits out a sword?

If you get burned by a fire jutsu of the Third Hokage level, you can open your mouth and spit out a snake, and the snake will spit out itself, thus refreshing your status.

No, is this a miniature Izanagi?

He is a powerful figure in the Uchiha clan and the vice minister of the security department.

Fugaku knew of a forbidden technique that could alter the reality of life and death…

Izanagi was once hailed as the Uchiha's second life.

This is also one of the sources of pride for Fugaku Uchiha.

After all, such a powerful and mysterious eye technique is truly unparalleled in the ninja world...

But after seeing Orochimaru's performance, Fugaku couldn't hold back anymore.

The heroes of this world are as numerous as carp crossing a river…

"Strange skills and tricks are not worth mentioning!"

Uchiha Isshin snorted coldly:

"It's absolutely impossible for it to be as miraculous as Izanagi! As for Hiruzen Sarutobi... after all, he's Sarutobi Sasuke's son, so it's understandable that he has some talent."

"It's true that we're not as good, but Orochimaru doesn't have to be blind... You keep saying we need to be tough, but we can't just be arrogant out of nowhere, can we?"

Fugaku Uchiha sighed, rubbing his forehead. "As you know, there aren't many of our three-tomoe clan members left... and there aren't many geniuses among our young children either."

"That Shisui is alright, but he's a descendant of Uchiha Kagami..."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Isshin fell silent.

After a long while, the old Uchiha sighed: "Fugaku, I am not a fool."

"Being a hawk doesn't mean rebellion, but rather the inheritance of an ideology and a form of vigilance!"

Uchiha Isshin slowly said, "The village was jointly created by the Senju and Uchiha clans..."

"Admittedly, the clan head and Lord Hashirama fought to the death for some unknown reason, but have we Uchiha not remained loyal?"

Fugaku Uchiha chuckled: "I heard from the elders of the clan that when the clan head left, he didn't call out to anyone and just walked out of the main gate of Konoha. You all thought he was going for a stroll..."

"Then suddenly a fight broke out in the Valley of the End, before the tribespeople could even react..."

Uchiha Isshin gave Uchiha Fugaku a sharp rap on the head in a fit of pique.

"You brat! How could you not have shouted!"

Speaking of this, Uchiha Isshin's eyes also became somewhat cloudy:

"We did call for it, but at the time, everyone really didn't want to live an unstable life anymore, so we said we'd reconsider, and the enthusiasm wasn't very high..."

"Everyone is thinking, with the clan leader around and Lord Hashirama being a good person, even if Tobirama Senju is bad, he can't do anything to the clan, right?"

"Unexpectedly, Madara and Lord Hashirama suddenly engaged in a deadly battle! Lord Madara perished, and Lord Hashirama was also severely injured, allowing Tobirama Senju to defeat the Second Hokage, all while neither of them were present..."

"Great Clan Head" is a unique title used by the Uchiha clan to refer to Madara Uchiha.

As for Hashirama Senju, this old man who lived through the Warring States period, he also maintained a certain level of respect.

However, when Tobirama Senju is mentioned, the situation is completely different.

Uchiha Isshin's eyes flashed with venom: "This person can never be trusted..."

"Since the Warring States period, his hands have been stained with the blood of countless Uchiha, and he has a morbid desire to research the Sharingan and the Uchiha bloodline, dissecting countless members of our clan..."

"After the village was established, he constantly ostracized the Uchiha clan, tarnished the image of the clan leader, and made the village children think he was a murderous monster, all to build up his campaign for the next Hokage!"

"After he became Hokage, his methods became even more ruthless!"

"In order to divide the Uchiha clan, he recruited the most talented 'Mirror' as his bodyguard, thereby splitting the Uchiha..."

Fugaku Uchiha frowned: "Taking him into the guards can be considered as accepting a clansman into the upper echelons, right?"

“Just looking at that point, it’s obvious.” Uchiha Isshin sneered, “But why was it that when Tobirama Senju covered the retreat, only 'Kagami' died!”

"Among 'Mirror's' teammates, who are now in the upper echelons, was there one who ever helped the Uchiha?"

Can all of this be explained by coincidence?

"That Shimura Danzo, his malice towards the Uchiha has never dissipated... and he takes pride in it every day, boasting that he is most like that son of a bitch, Tobirama Senju."

"Those Root ninjas are openly monitoring the clan's territory!"

Uchiha Isshin shook his head:

"I'm telling you to read more history books not to harm you, but because I'm afraid you'll be deceived! How could any of Senju Tobirama's disciples and followers be good people?"

"If we don't maintain a hawkish stance and let the children inherit this will, otherwise when all the old people die and no one remembers these things, that will be the day when the Uchiha clan is wiped out and exterminated!"

"Do you understand?"

Uchiha looked at Fugaku with a mixture of disappointment and frustration.

Fugaku Uchiha nodded, seemingly understanding, "Then when will we be able to regain our glory? Are we just going to stay like this forever...?"

"Wait, be patient."

Uchiha Isshin said slowly, "We're not admitting defeat; we're waiting for a turning point!"

"Our bloodline contains limitless potential; this is the core advantage of the Uchiha clan..."

"Everything will be alright once the next clan leader, the young clan leader Izuna, appears!"

And the following day.

Hiruzen Sarutobi arrived at the Hokage's office early.

He was also pondering questions about the Uchiha clan...

"The Second Hokage left behind a fortune, but also a mess..."

"It's still a historical problem stemming from a thousand years of grievances, it's not easy to handle!" Hiruzen Sarutobi squinted, lost in thought.

P.S.: Here comes a 5,000-word chapter! Updates will be scheduled for noon starting tomorrow!

011 Hiruzen Sarutobi's yearning for Tobirama Senju, the second Hokage who is a treasure trove of talents.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was smoking his pipe.

This is his habit; in fact, the smoke no longer has any irritating effect on his body.

It's more about a sense of ritual...

"My so-called authority can be roughly summarized as my degree of control over the various groups and institutions in the village..."

“The Hyuga and Uchiha clans are two thorns that must be removed…” Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head and glanced at the report submitted by Sakumo Hatake in his hand.

This is about Hyuga Hizashi's performance in the clan's territory yesterday.

"That young man, Hitsashi, has a ruthless streak; he's got guts..."

Based on intelligence and Hizashi's words, this clan was practically his natural base as Hokage.

It would be hard to find a better ally than the Hyuga branch family…

Even ordinary ninjas in Konoha enjoy a high degree of freedom during peacetime. They can take on missions whenever they want, or stay home and sleep if they don't...

Despite their seemingly privileged background, the Hyuga clan enjoys a level of freedom that most people do not.

It was a feudal military group that concealed a slave society...

"We need to train Hizashi well and let him cause some trouble within the Hyuga clan!" Hiruzen Sarutobi thought to himself, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

"He's not just an ordinary member of the secret service; I hope he can demonstrate the ability to be a squad leader."

In this way, Hizashi would have enough influence to slowly build up his influence within the Hyuga clan, attracting a group of branch families who wanted to learn from him, that is, to yearn for the Hokage's protection.

"As for the Hyuga main family, let's ignore them for now. They've maintained a high-handed attitude for so many years; let this Hizashi fire burn them first. Once the main family gets really anxious, then we can talk to them with a smile..."

Suppress first, then pull – this is always an effective and foolproof tactic.

After all, adding flowers to brocade is far less valuable than providing charcoal in the snow...

But as for where this 'snow' came from, let's not ask!

"But where is the opening for the Uchiha clan?"

"It's hard to find..."

In Hiruzen Sarutobi's view, there is currently a serious lack of trust between the Uchiha clan and the Hokage Building.

This situation is caused by multiple factors.

The heavy burden of history is a big problem.

Putting himself in his shoes, if he had transmigrated into the Uchiha clan, he would definitely keep his distance from the Hokage lineage...

There's no way around it; the story between Tobirama Senju and the Uchiha clan is a well-known and popular topic in the ninja world, both during the Warring States period and even now.

This has spawned numerous stories and tales, and I've heard that some of those naive nobles quite enjoy reading about it...

In Hiruzen Sarutobi's view, the collaboration between the Senju and Uchiha clans to build a village was quite surreal.

It was entirely driven by Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha; there was no reconciliation among the other middle and upper-level officials, and the hatred was very real.

It's actually quite wonderful to say that it's the beginning of reconciliation.

Madara Uchiha demanded that Hashirama Senju commit suicide before the two reconciled…

While it may seem overly harsh, or even unreasonable, Hashirama Senju's agreement provided the defeated Uchiha with an emotional way out and gave Madara face.

The Uchiha and Senju clans, who should have been fighting each other to the death for the seriously injured Izuna Uchiha and for their fallen clansmen, suddenly shook hands and made peace.

It can be said that he retreated in order to advance, displaying great grace and winning people's hearts.

The problem is that no institutional constraints were subsequently established; it relied entirely on Hashirama Senju's personal charisma to maintain order...
