Revitalizing the Uchiha clan starts with becoming a Kage.

It can only be said that the same thing, viewed from different stages and angles, can lead to different results and impacts.

The environment can easily be a decisive factor, but people's own choices are equally important. Since the whole clan has come to Iwagakure Village, in this new home, it is definitely the right choice for the clan to start their new life with a fresh attitude.

Elder Zongxuan and Elder Xuanlan, who were standing to the side, nodded silently, even though they were considered ancient figures in the clan.

But they are not truly inflexible. Moreover, even the most stubborn person will change their mindset after experiencing such a huge change. The two elders are also able to view the current situation of the clan very rationally.

"Yes, I understand what you mean. Our clan also needs to plan our future path."

Fugaku nodded and spoke with the same solemn expression.

The clan has already been reborn, and he doesn't want them to go back to their old ways decades later. They can't possibly break away from Iwagakure again at that point, can they? If the Uchiha clan is to go back to their old ways, then all the evils will have originated from themselves.

A new attitude, a new home, embracing a brand new life, the Uchiha clan will surely be reborn here!

At the very least, Shoji himself firmly believes this.

"Then we'll have Elder Zongxuan and the others..."

Shoji, Fugaku, and the others wanted to say something more.

"Whoosh!"

next moment.

In a distant location.

A burly figure flashed over.

It was Huang Tu who had been leading the Iwagakure troops to escort the Uchiha clan back to the village. When the Uchiha clan entered Iwagakure in an orderly fashion and arrived at their clan's residence, Huang Tu went ahead to report the situation to his Tsuchikage father.

Now they turn back again.

Clearly, something important has happened.

Shoji, Fugaku, Shisui, Elder Sogen, and others also simultaneously turned their attention to Huangtu.

"Chief Fugaku, Mr. Shoji, everyone!"

"Your clan's settlement has just been established, and conditions will be a bit harsh. Please bear with us. In the coming period, we will definitely improve the environment and facilities of the settlement."

He met the gazes of Shoji, Fugaku, and the others.

Huang Tu bowed slightly, his honest face showing a hint of apology as he spoke.

"No, no, no! This environment is already quite good. It's really kind of you, Lord Tsuchikage and Lord Yellow Earth, to go to so much trouble!"

Fugaku immediately shook his head and said.

This wasn't just polite talk; it was a heartfelt statement. To achieve this much in just a few days, and not even in the most remote part of the village as they had initially anticipated, was far beyond their expectations.

This is enough to prove the sincerity of Iwagakure, and it also shows the 'trust' that the Tsuchikage has in their Uchiha clan! Of course, this is also a manifestation of the Third Tsuchikage's confidence.

"That's good. If you have any other requests, please feel free to let us know. The village will do its best to make arrangements for your clan. From today onwards, we are officially one family!"

Huang Tu said this in a very cheerful tone.

"Yes!"

Regardless of how sincere they are, at least their outward attitude is very friendly.

This softened the expressions of Elder Zongxuan and Elder Xuanlan standing to the side.

"Also, if it is convenient for Clan Head Fugaku and Mr. Shoji, Lord Tsuchikage would like to meet with you both later. I wonder if you two are available?"

After the usual social pleasantries have ended.

Loess then gets straight to the point.

This was an expected development, although the timing was a bit tight. Originally, it was supposed to be after the Uchiha clan had settled down that they would take the initiative to pay their respects to the Tsuchikage.

However, neither Fugaku nor Shoji showed any surprise on their faces. At that moment, the two nodded in unison and replied, "Of course, no problem. It's our honor!"

149. Five-Tails Jinchuriki - Han!

After the family moved away.

Logically and emotionally, the leader of their clan should definitely take the initiative to pay a visit to Onoki, the Tsuchikage. This is not just a matter of etiquette, but also involves the future position of the Uchiha clan in Iwagakure—upper, middle, or lower class. If their clan leaves Konoha and comes to Iwagakure, and does not want to repeat the same mistakes, they must make certain changes in many aspects and take the initiative to integrate into Iwagakure.

This is the Uchiha clan's grand plan for the next century!

Therefore, Fugaku and Shoji did not hesitate at all. After Fugaku gave some instructions, he asked the three elders, Sogen, Chie, and Genran, to make arrangements for all the clan members for the time being and to hold a clan meeting when they returned.

Shoji and Fugaku followed behind Huang Tu toward the Tsuchikage's office building, which stood tall in the center of Iwagakure. Along the way, Fugaku and Shoji encountered many ordinary villagers and Iwagaku ninja. Both groups had different attitudes toward Shoji and Fugaku; the former were mostly curious, while the latter were more wary.

After all, ordinary people don't really understand what 'Uchiha' means.

But ninjas are different. Apart from those young guys who have just graduated and are inexperienced in the world, any ninja who has been in the ninja world for a few years knows the illustrious reputation of the Uchiha clan. Not to mention that just half a month ago, the Uchiha clan caused such a big commotion, and the explosive combat power displayed by Tsukasa, Fugaku, Shisui and others became well known to all the major ninja villages in the ninja world!

This isn't just one or two problems, but a truly ruthless group of people!

This is arguably the consensus of the vast majority of people in the ninja world at this moment.

Although there are many ambitious individuals like Onoki in Iwagakure, it is clear how abundant the benefits are for the Uchiha clan to join Iwagakure!

However, they also felt that the risks involved were too high.

These people are actually more straightforward; they don't care about the struggle for interests. They simply feel that the rewards are just as high as the risks. Not everyone can have Onoki's decisiveness, which is the key to Onoki becoming a 'Kage'.

Although Jiang Si is not aware of these things at the moment, if he were to know, he would not feel any ill will towards this group of people, because they are not wary or afraid of the Uchiha clan out of personal desire, but are truly looking at them from the perspective of justice.

To put it bluntly, the Uchiha clan can change these people's mindset through their own efforts. On the contrary, the representatives of the ninja clans led by Kamisumi-ryu are the most troublesome, as these people only see their own interests.

Those people don't care about risks or matters of principle.

These people are somewhat short-sighted.

Unless the Uchiha clan's joining can truly bring them extremely rich benefits, do you think they will resist to the end? Don't talk about the disparity in strength or anything like that. In the society of Shoji's previous life, under the monitoring and punishment of powerful state agencies and strict laws, those who dared to trample on the law and the country were still 'one after another'!

It's all because they're blinded by greed!

Coincidentally!

The same applies to members of the Kamisumi clan and other ninja groups.

Their inner selves are already rotten; they only care about their own small plot of land and their own interests. And to put it bluntly, even if the Uchiha clan really does expand Iwagakure's share of the pie in the future, as long as there is even the slightest behavior that they perceive as 'unequal distribution of spoils', they will still be dissatisfied.

The inevitable conflicts will still occur.

This is human nature, this is reality!

Despite being just a young man who had just entered the world in his previous life, Jiang Si still knew a bit about this. Along the way, Jiang Si was thinking about how he should organize his words when he met the Third Tsuchikage again. After all, if nothing unexpected happened, this meeting would set the tone for the Uchiha clan's position in Iwagakure for the next ten years or even longer!

You might even encounter some powerful mid- to high-ranking figures in Iwagakure.

This is also the only way for the Uchiha clan to gain a foothold in Iwagakure and eventually integrate into it completely. An individual cannot exist apart from the collective; this is true for people and for a clan as well.

Unless they are willing to collectively withdraw from the world.

Even so, it's really hard to say that one can completely escape this mundane world!

It's less than a five-minute walk.

As the Tsuchikage's office building, which is relatively close to the Uchiha clan's residence, it is built on the steepest mountain peak at the highest point in Iwagakure. Even in the unique Iwagakure, the entire building is still quite distinctive.

As the general approached.

One could sense more than a dozen massive chakra auras emanating from within, among which two auras were the most powerful and terrifying. One was the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, which goes without saying, and the other aura contained a certain special fluctuation. Moreover, in terms of chakra strength, it far surpassed Onoki, who was the Tsuchikage.

In any ninja village.

Such a person.

They can almost all be identified as the Jinchuriki of the Tailed Beasts from that ninja village!

In the blink of an eye, Shoji also determined that the owner of this aura must be one of the Four-Tails or Five-Tails Jinchuriki!

And it's highly likely to be the latter.

as predicted.

"Lord Tsuchikage!"

As Shoji and Fugaku followed Yotsuchi into the Tsuchikage's office, the suddenly open view revealed figures that, apart from Onoki, the one that most attracted Shoji's attention was the person on his left, wearing dark red armor, a straw hat, and a red mask. This extremely familiar attire, along with the powerful chakra fluctuations emanating from his body, drew their attention.

This is a person who is 100% certain: the Five-Tails Jinchuriki of Iwagakure, known as the Steam Ninja!

Although in terms of perfection, it is slightly inferior to the Jinchūriki of the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails of Kumogakure.

However, this steam ninja can also maximize the power of the Five-Tails Kokuo, and even without using the power of the tailed beast, Han's personal strength is above that of a quasi-Kage!

Once someone uses the power of a Tailed Beast, they can definitely be considered a 'Strong Kage'!

If it weren't for the additional suppressive power of the Mangekyou Sharingan on the tailed beast's chakra.

Speaking purely of 'individual power' itself!

The generals of today are no match for those of the Han Dynasty!

'Truly, he lives up to his reputation as a Jinchūriki of a Tailed Beast!'

Jiang Si thought to himself silently.

Han also turned his gaze to the two of them the moment they entered, as he was a Jinchuriki of a Tailed Beast. He had a natural sensitivity to the power fluctuations of the Uchiha clan!

Not to mention Uchiha clan members like Shoji and Fugaku who have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.

This is not Han's perception or consciousness.

Rather, it was the reaction of the Five-Tailed King Mukwang within its body.

The Five-Tails' chakra, which subconsciously surged, also made Han's senses more acute.

'The Uchiha clan?'

His eyes were slightly narrowed.

This made the atmosphere surrounding this steam ninja even more sinister.

150. Conversation and Influence (Third Update)

The other Jinchuriki of the Tailed Beasts in Iwagakure—Roshi—was obviously not present. It seems that in the original work, it was mentioned that this Four-Tails Jinchuriki did not have a harmonious relationship with the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki. It was not a personal grudge, but rather that they had different or even conflicting ideas.

Therefore, this Four-Tails Jinchuriki spends most of his time traveling and training alone outside the village, just like Jiraiya of Konoha. He only returns to the village when he encounters a crisis or when a war is needed. Otherwise, he ignores everyone in Iwagakure, including Onoki.
