Naruto: The village was on the verge of bankruptcy, and I struck oil.

"It's normal for me, as the Kazekage, to know a lot of secrets."

Mu Feng managed to brush it off.

Then they began to bewitch him.

"Actually, I feel sorry for your Uchiha clan."

"Your clan and the Senju clan are the two cornerstone clans of Konoha's founding. It can be said that without the Uchiha, there would be no Konoha."

"For the sake of Konoha, your Uchiha clan has shed blood and sweat, and countless clan members have died."

"In the end, they were forced to rebel because of suspicion."

"As one of the last survivors of the Uchiha clan."

"Don't you feel sorry for the Uchiha clan?"

Itachi Uchiha is not a three-year-old child.

He had already made up his mind when he decided to carry out the plan to exterminate the entire clan.

Mu Feng's few words wouldn't sway him.

"Hmph, I don't know how you know these secrets."

"Perhaps you have some kind of connection with Danzo."

"But let me tell you, don't even think about trying to sway me. I did the extermination of my clan myself, and I have my reasons."

Mu Feng shrugged.

"Whether you want to protect the village or protect your brother."

"I think you made the wrong choice."

Itachi Uchiha's heart skipped a beat.

Fortunately, he managed to suppress his emotions in time.

He said expressionlessly, "What nonsense are you talking about! I have never regretted it."

"Then I'll analyze it for you from the perspective of Shadow."

Mu Feng is giving a lesson to Uchiha Itachi.

"I am the Kage of a ninja village. One of the clans under my command is suspected of plotting a rebellion. What is the best course of action for me?"

Uchiha Itachi looked at Mu Feng with curiosity.

He was an excellent ninja, a genius ninja.

He can complete all kinds of tasks perfectly.

But he was ultimately just a ninja.

Tools in the hands of those in power.

He never considered the issue from a higher perspective.

"First of all, I am certain that there is only one clan involved, and no other families are involved."

"Then the situation is very easy to handle."

"Simple?!" Itachi Uchiha couldn't help but ask.

"Simple!"

Mu Feng nodded affirmatively.

"One clan is not strong enough to fight against a village."

"Since I am the Hokage, I will be straightforward and openly approach the Uchiha clan leader, demonstrating the strength of the Hokage and the village to intimidate and subdue him."

"Of course, we will kill a few people if necessary."

"This is similar to how the alpha wolf of a pack will not hesitate to bite and subdue a challenger once it discovers one."

"The biggest problem Konoha had in dealing with the Uchiha clan was its hesitation. It was suspicious of the Uchiha but dared not suppress them directly, which ultimately led to the extermination of the clan."

Itachi Uchiha retorted, "The Uchiha clan has already decided to rebel; there's no way they can be subdued."

"That's because Konoha wasn't ruthless enough and refused to show its absolute strength, which allowed the Uchiha clan to harbor illusions."

Mu Feng's eyes shone brightly, like stars.

"Peace can only occur under two circumstances."

"One scenario is that both sides possess the power to annihilate the other, achieving a balance of terror."

"Secondly, one side has overwhelming strength. No matter how much an ant struggles, it can only despair and bow down in the face of an elephant."

What did Konoha do?

"Nothing was done."

"They sat idly by while the First Ancestor of the Uchiha clan caused trouble, but did nothing."

"Even if you bring other families along to show off your strength, that would be fine."

"If the Uchiha clan leader is not convinced, then kill him and see if the Uchiha still dare to rebel."

Itachi Uchiha was stunned.

He had never thought of it, nor had he heard any of the Konoha leadership ever had such an idea.

To deal with rebels, they only resort to assassinations and conspiracies.

This is the inherent mindset of ninjas.

That's the kind of work they do.

Open and aboveboard, aboveboard, engaging in blatant schemes.

They really hadn't thought of that.

Mu Feng's words continued to echo in Itachi Uchiha's ears.

"If the Uchiha clan submits in a short time, then we can take measures such as sending them abroad, splitting them up, or dividing the family to weaken their strength."

"In any case, I don't think it's necessary to go so far as to wipe out the entire clan."

"Was there any need to exterminate the entire clan?"

"If we were more decisive and ruthless, it wouldn't have been necessary at all."

"As for your younger brother Sasuke, he doesn't need to be an orphan."

"You can grow up happily just like your younger brother."

Sasuke was mentioned.

The most hidden part of Itachi Uchiha's heart was touched.

Those blood-red eyes also seemed somewhat dim.

He thought about it following Mu Feng's line of thought.

That possibility certainly exists.

Did I do something wrong?

My long-held beliefs have been shattered.

I started to doubt myself.

He, who had always been steadfast, wavered.

"Do not."

He covered his face in anguish.

"Do not."

"You're a devil."

Uchiha Itachi stared at Mu Feng with his blood-red eyes blazing with fire.

Mu Feng chuckled softly.

"No, I'm a good person."

"I am a good person who has come to help and save your Uchiha clan."

Chapter 63 There's no such ridiculous logic in the ninja world.

Save our Uchiha clan?

Itachi Uchiha was stunned.

Mu Feng nodded: "Do you think that the Uchiha clan only has the two of you left and doesn't need to be saved? If you two are gone, the ancient and glorious Uchiha clan will be gone."

Uchiha Itachi was still being stubborn.

"We don't need you to save us. With Konoha Village here, Sasuke will be well protected."

"As for me, I don't need your protection at all."

Mu Feng laughed with a hint of sarcasm.

"Konoha Village cannot protect anyone."

"This village, where thugs come knocking at the door all the time and ambitious people cause trouble, is hardly a place where one can feel at ease."

Itachi Uchiha was unconvinced.

"Even if Konoha is the worst, it's still better than your Sunagakure."

"That's not necessarily true."

Mu Feng extended an invitation.

"You can come and visit our Sunagakure village when you have time."

"I believe that after you have witnessed the strength of our Sand Village, you will choose to settle down in the Sand Village."
