The correct way for the Uchiha to rise

His gaze toward Uchiha Hikaru became intense.

Uchiha Teru frowned. "Now that it's confirmed, can we issue the bounty?"

The well-off middle-aged man didn't care about Uchiha Hikaru's attitude; he was a rich man, so it didn't matter if he tolerated it.

"Well, the Sarutobi clan is, after all... as you know, it's one thing to issue warrants for a few, but if we issue warrants for the whole clan at once, what if they cause us trouble?"

Uchiha Teru didn't believe the portly middle-aged man's words would come true; who would dare to cause trouble for the black market?

"The Sarutobi clan is about to decline, there won't be many ninjas left, and there won't be many strong ones to cause you any trouble. There must be a lot of gold dust, consider the extra as payment for your risk-bearing."

Although Uchiha Teru appeared impatient, he was secretly delighted.

This is the first time I've ever spent money so lavishly. Back in my original timeline, I was incredibly poor, and even though I only recently mastered Sand Release, I haven't had a chance to experience the joy of spending money like water.

As the steward of the largest black market, the portly middle-aged man was naturally concerned about the situation in the ninja world. Although Danzo's death was yesterday, the appearance of Uchiha Hikaru had already spread, and he recognized him. When he heard the other party say that the Sarutobi clan was about to decline, he understood and did not think that the other party was exaggerating. After all, the Sarutobi clan did not have any Kage-level members. With the methods of the legendary Uchiha Kumo, the Sarutobi clan could be completely wiped out. However, it sounded that the other party did not want to wipe out the clan, but rather to keep some members alive and then issue warrants for their arrest, leaving the entire Sarutobi clan to live in dire straits.

Thinking of this, the well-to-do middle-aged man shuddered. This was truly devastating; if things went this way, the Third Hokage was truly finished.

Having received the middle-aged man's assurance that the wanted poster would be put up soon, Uchiha Teru left the black market without further ado.

He'd been here for over an hour; someone was bound to recognize him, and there was no guarantee someone wouldn't come looking for trouble. It was best to leave now. Although he wasn't afraid, it was always better to avoid some trouble.

He's not in the mood to fight anyone right now.

On this day, following Danzo's death and the "crime" incident, the Sage Organization did something that shocked the ninja world again the next day.

Uchiha Kumo attacked the Sarutobi clan, annihilating them with a single magma fireball. The Sarutobi clan suffered heavy losses. At the same time, Uchiha Akira appeared on the black market and issued a bounty on all surviving Sarutobi clan ninjas.

Even the weakest genin has a bounty of 500,000 ryo! Jonin have bounties of tens of millions! You should know that Asuma's bounty was 30 million ryo because he was the son of the Hokage. Before Uchiha Kaguya's bounty was set, Asuma's bounty was only 30 million ryo. But his opponent was an elite jonin, and a very powerful one at that. He could easily take on three ordinary jonins.

In other words, all the ninjas of the Sarutobi clan now have bounties on their heads, just like the Hokage's son did back then. The wandering ninjas who specialize in earning bounties have gone crazy!

The sheer number of bounties, and the fact that Uchiha Teru paid them all upfront, truly shocked everyone. It's said that the other party released ten cubic meters of gold dust, leaving even the black market's butler stunned.

Some even suspect that Uchiha Teru's gold dust was stolen from the Sand Village's treasury...

Even the high-ranking officials of Sunagakure thought the same thing at first, but after checking again and finding that the treasury was not missing, they were finally relieved.

However, the Sand Village still had many complaints about Uchiha Kagura's actions.

The largest supplier of placer gold is Sunagakure Village, which is also their biggest source of income. In the past, they made money by controlling the flow of placer gold. Now that ten cubic meters of placer gold are flowing directly into the market, it is conceivable that the price of placer gold will plummet in the near future.

The Sand Village had also speculated that someone in the Sage Organization might have mastered Sand Release, since so much gold dust was not so easy to obtain.

If the Immortal Organization had another member who had mastered Sand Release, they wouldn't even dare to imagine it.

The potential of bloodline limit ninjas is very high. Once they grow up, especially lone wolves—those without a clan—they will at least become elite Jonin, and many will even reach Kage level, not to mention powerful bloodline limits like Sand Release.

So if someone in the Sage Organization really has mastered Sand Release, then they must have at least one Kage-level powerhouse!

Furthermore, since they were able to develop magma giants based on Hashirama Senju's Wood Golem Technique, wouldn't sand giants also exist?

No matter how outrageous it was, the leaders of Sunagakure couldn't find a reason to refute it.

What kind of organization is the Immortal Organization?

The Akatsuki organization existed at least before the Third Shinobi World War, and was quite active during the war.

The Sage Organization is different; they appeared out of nowhere, without leaving a trace. Crucially, their strength is undeniable—no less than that of any ninja village.

In the dark cave, a lamp was burning slowly, providing light to the cave so that one could see something.

Ten illusory figures floated around the lamp, forming a circle.

These figures are members of the Akatsuki organization, and they are having a meeting. Angel Konan convened this meeting.

"As you all have heard about the Immortal Organization, we know very little about them so far, but one thing is certain: they are very powerful. The members who have been revealed to the public are no less capable than any of you here today, and one of them can even take on two opponents at once. The purpose of this meeting is to discuss information about the Immortal Organization, and if possible, to also determine our attitude towards them."

Xiao Nan first stated the theme of the meeting, then waited for the others to speak.

"Oh dear, do I even need to say it? They're definitely enemies. They don't hesitate to attack any Akatsuki member they encounter, and every move they make is deadly."

Afei was the first to stand up and express his stance.

Then silence fell over the room as everyone waited for someone to speak.

"Hey, Itachi, say something!"

Seemingly unable to bear the silence, Tobi started the conversation, letting Itachi speak.

"That's right. The purpose of the Sage Organization's recent major actions is very clear: to avenge the Uchiha clan. I wonder what Itachi, the one who wiped out the clan, is thinking."

"Yes, Itachi, tell us quickly."

......

"I will kill any fish that escaped the net."

Itachi Uchiha's voice finally rang out, expressing his stance.

The main reason for this attitude was that Itachi felt that Uchiha Yun and Uchiha Hui's revenge was too intense. He was unsure whether they would take their anger out on Sasuke. In order to prevent things from getting out of control, these two unstable factors had to be killed!

"By the way, Uchiha Teru offered a bounty of ten cubic meters of gold dust on all the Sarutobi clan ninjas a few hours ago. They're so rich! Why don't we bring them in?"

This is Kakuzu, who seems to only care about money and is not affected by Itachi's attitude.

"If you ask me, we should wipe them out."

Afei still insisted on his opinion, but he was really panicking. The other party knew his identity, and that wasn't the most important thing. The other party knew too much. He even knew his identity, the Sharingan on Danzo's arm, and the fact that he cut off Danzo's other arm at the last moment. All of this showed that he knew Danzo's trump card very well.

Obito went to visit Konoha yesterday and saw the Reverse Four Symbols Seal engraved under Danzo's clothes.

That Uchiha Yun seems to know everything. If you say that Uchiha Yun's Mangekyou Sharingan doesn't have the ability to know everything, Tobi will be the first to disbelieve it!

Afei was familiar with Nagato; at least they could talk face-to-face, so he knew a thing or two about Nagato's thoughts.

Seeing that Nagato remained silent, Tobi grew anxious.

"As you all know, the Mangekyou Sharingan has two exclusive eye techniques. Don't forget that Uchiha Kumo's Mangekyou Sharingan has the ability to know everything. They may already know your information."

He even changed his usual carefree style and spoke seriously about Danzo, clearly stating that Uchiha Yun had a clear understanding of Danzo's trump card and weaknesses.

Everyone's expression immediately tightened. Yes, they'd almost forgotten. Tobi had told them before that Uchiha Yun's Mangekyou Sharingan ability might be all-knowing, perhaps not quite as outrageous as all-knowing, but knowing all the information about a ninja was still possible. Before, Tobi had only speculated, and they hadn't taken it seriously. But this time, hearing the details of Danzo's death from Tobi's perspective, they realized that this Uchiha Yun seemed to know everything.

Danzo would never tell anyone about the Reverse Four Symbols Seal, yet Uchiha Yun still found out about it!

So what about their intelligence? Does the other side also know this?

Kakuzu realized the weakness of the Earth Grudge, felt a chill in his heart, and stopped talking about supporting the incorporation of the Immortal Organization.

Even the phantoms on Nagato's side showed some fluctuations. Seeing this, Tobi breathed a sigh of relief and took the opportunity to fan the flames.

Ultimately, the Akatsuki meeting failed to determine its stance on the Sage Organization, and the topic was dropped.

However, they exchanged a lot of information about the Immortal Organization.

During the meeting, a phantom appeared silently, but the others noticed it and ignored it.

This kind of thing happens frequently, and it's not the first time Orochimaru has eavesdropped. They can't get rid of him, so they can only ignore it.

Leaf.

While the Akatsuki were meeting to discuss their views on the Sage Organization, Uchiha Kiyoshi was considering the handover he had already completed with the returning Uchiha Hikaru. From now on, Uchiha Hikaru would be in charge of Konoha's affairs, and he, Uchiha Kiyoshi, was leaving to cause trouble in the ninja world... to complete his mission.

He was also considering whether to create a few more clones, since the reputation of the Immortal Organization had already been established, and it would be awkward to have only two clones.

However, creating a clone requires constant adaptation for the clone to master the bloodline limit, and the clone's chakra reserves also require a long period of training.

It's probably too late to prepare now.

Unless we can find another body like Uchiha Hikaru's.

"Let's study Orochimaru's techniques first. Besides, I have Hashirama cells here, so I should be able to give it a try."

Uchiha Kiyoshi had no intention of getting any more test subjects from Orochimaru, mainly because he was afraid that the other party would notice something.

"By the way, White Zetsu's body seems pretty good. I wonder if it can be used to create clones."

Uchiha Kiyoshi suddenly thought of White Zetsu.

However, he soon frowned. White Zetsu was difficult to catch and very well hidden. He didn't know if he could find it.

"Let's see how it goes. I'll keep my mental awareness active and see if any White Zetsu will come within a kilometer of me."

Chapter 220 Naruto Returns

Uchiha Kiyoshi planned to leave and head to the ninja world to carry out his own plans.

"It's really hard to say how long the Fourth Shinobi World War will last, especially with the emergence of the Sage Organization, which may change the course of events."

This kind of situation—knowing something is going to happen but not knowing the exact time—is truly frustrating, and that's exactly what happened to Uchiha Kiyoshi at that moment.

The plot he knew was only the original plot, and the various timelines were very vague. Even the specific times given in the original work had been forgotten over the years. At most, he knew the order in which the major events occurred.

Therefore, on this day, after destroying the Sarutobi clan, Uchiha Kiyoshi did something significant.

He inquired about the history, the history of this timeline. In this way, he at least knew the timeline of the Third Shinobi World War under normal circumstances, and reviewed many events during the Third Shinobi World War. Although it may not be as comprehensive as the original work, only knowing the surface of the events and not knowing the specific mastermind behind them, it has an advantage that the original work lacks, namely, authenticity and completeness.

Just as Uchiha Kiyoshi was about to leave Konoha, on a small path not far from Konoha.

Naruto, Yamato, and the others were traveling wearily.

Two days after returning from the Dragon Vein, they had just found a populated place to rest when they heard the news that Konoha had been attacked. They immediately set off and rushed towards Konoha.

Along the way, they also heard the specific details of the attack on Konoha, and found it hard to accept the news of the annihilation of the Shimura clan.

"Damn it, those are hundreds of lives!"

These were Naruto's words at the time. However, upon hearing that the other party was a survivor of the Uchiha clan, and thinking of his comrade Uchiha Sasuke, Naruto fell silent.

Perhaps, this is revenge?

However, Naruto was puzzled; he didn't understand why the Uchiha survivor would go and massacre the Shimura clan.

It wasn't until last night, when they heard the news that Konoha had been attacked again, that they finally understood the whole story.

It turns out that the person who ordered the massacre of the Uchiha clan was Danzo, the leader of Root. The reason why Uchiha Kumo exterminated the Shimura clan was because Danzo was a ninja of the Shimura clan; it was revenge.

Even though he knew the reason, Naruto still found it hard to accept. He had wiped out the enemy's entire clan in order to get revenge. When would this ever end?

Having spent several years in Root, Yamato was more receptive to this situation, but he couldn't explain it well and didn't offer Naruto much guidance.

There was no other reason; he was mainly afraid of losing the argument and being brainwashed by Naruto...

They had initially thought that Uchiha Yun, having taken his revenge, would be more restrained. However, not long ago, while they were traveling after entering the Land of Fire, they suddenly sensed a massive chakra fluctuation originating from the direction of Konoha. This time, without even needing to gather intelligence, they could guess that it was Uchiha Yun who had made his move again.
