At this moment, Uchiha Ryosuke slowly turned around and smiled at Nara Shikaku: "I heard that you have a high IQ, so I came to test it myself."

"...It seems like this is going to be a very troublesome matter."

Nara Shikaku's expression was complex, and his tone was solemn.

It's not normal for members of the Uchiha clan to visit late at night.

After all, the two families did not have close ties and were not particularly familiar with each other.

Moreover, Nara Shikaku was certainly aware of the conflict between the Uchiha clan and the village. Furthermore, thanks to his exceptional intellect, he had a clearer understanding of the situation than others.

So at this moment, as soon as Uchiha Ryosuke opened his mouth, he realized that something was wrong.

Uchiha Ryosuke ignored the other person's reaction and continued, "I have a question I'd like to ask."

"Once upon a time, there was a ninja village, and in it was a very powerful clan. The strongest members of their clan were capable of leading the entire clan to protect the interests of the whole ninja village."

"But they never got that opportunity and were deliberately suppressed by certain forces in the village. Later, they woke up and stopped tolerating it. Instead, they stood up against the oppression and decided to take back everything that belonged to them."

"So here's the question: faced with the rising power of a clan whose strength far surpasses that of the rest of the village, what do you think the other clans in that ninja village should do?"

After listening to Uchiha Ryosuke's words and seeing the other party staring at him with a half-smile, Nara Shikaku's expression became even more serious.

"The ninja village you mentioned, could it be called Konoha?"

Nara Shikaku asked.

However, he did not receive a reply from Uchiha Ryosuke.

The other person just looked at him with a half-smile.

This made Nara Shikaku's heart sink.

"If I'm not mistaken, you must be that recently rising star, the Uchiha genius ninja, Uchiha Ryosuke..."

"good."

Uchiha Ryosuke finally responded.

Seeing that he readily admitted his identity, Nara Shikaku's eyes narrowed slightly once again.

The news is now spreading like wildfire throughout the village.

He also confirmed the authenticity of this news with other people.

On the northern battlefield, Uchiha Ryosuke single-handedly fought against the hundreds of ninja troops led by the Fourth Raikage of Kumogakure in the Land of Lightning.

They not only routed the enemy, but also caused them to flee in disarray, abandoning their armor and weapons.

Of the hundreds of Cloud Village ninjas, less than twenty Cloud Village experts managed to escape.

This level of strength is probably even greater than that of "Yellow Flash" Minato Namikaze.

If the Uchiha clan really intends to rebel and seize power in Konoha, then things will get complicated.

Now, it's clear that the other party has come to issue a warning.

The goal is to prevent other clans in Konoha from getting involved in the power struggle between the Uchiha clan and its higher-ups...

Chapter 59 Uchiha Ryosuke's Overbearing Power! Counterattack!

The other side is trying to force these prestigious Konoha families to make their own choice.

Countless thoughts flashed through Nara Shikaku's mind.

Finally, Nara Shikaku took a deep breath and responded:

"The ruler of every ninja village is the strongest person recognized by the villagers."

“Not just any person or family can become the ruling class.”

"If we force that action, it will only cause unnecessary bloodshed and sacrifice."

"That's right, that's why I came to ask you this question..."

So, what do you think is the right choice for those families and ninjas to make in order to avoid a truly large-scale bloodshed?

Uchiha Ryosuke asked in return with a half-smile.

This question left Nara Shikaku feeling helpless.

"This is such a troublesome problem..."

He complained.

Then, he pretended to immerse himself in the role and pondered for a while.

A moment later, a bead of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

"If I were to make the choice, it would be if internal strife were truly unavoidable, and the opponent's strength was already enough to overwhelm the other ninjas."

To avoid excessive and unnecessary bloodshed and sacrifice, we can only turn a blind eye...

"The premise is—"

As he said this, his eyes sharpened.

His gaze was fixed intently on Uchiha Ryosuke: "The premise is that they must be certain that the clan about to take power can truly be wholeheartedly devoted to the sake of their ninja village, and has the ability and sufficient responsibility to protect the village's peace."

"If that's not possible, I think most people in that ninja village wouldn't agree to let such a family become the village's guardians. They would do everything in their power to prevent such a thing from happening, no matter the sacrifice or cost!"

Upon hearing his reply, Uchiha Ryosuke smiled slightly.

Suddenly, he disappeared.

Then his voice rang out from behind Nara Shikaku: "You don't need to worry about that at all. That ninja clan is the most outstanding and responsible clan in the entire ninja world."

"Their rise to power will not only provide the village with a sufficiently safe environment for development, but will also make everything in that ninja village even better."

His ghostly speed and agility made Nara Shikaku's pupils shrink sharply, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

Yoshino Nara, who was observing from behind the door, was equally terrified.

Uchiha Ryosuke used both soft and hard tactics.

He directly demonstrated his extraordinary strength in front of Nara Shikaku.

At the same time, a promise was made to the other party.

As Konoha's most intelligent strategist, Nara Shikaku ultimately saw through the core of the whole affair.

He slowly closed his eyes and calmly said, "If that family is really as you say, then I believe the other people in the village would welcome them to the stage."

Uchiha Ryosuke was very satisfied with this answer.

He smiled and nodded, gently patted Nara Shikaku on the shoulder and said, "Thank you very much for answering my questions, Shikaku-kun."

"However, there is one more thing I would like to ask for your help with."

Nara Shikaku felt a little overwhelmed by Uchiha Ryosuke's warm and friendly address.

He asked, feigning composure, "What is it?"

"I would like to trouble you to tell the other family patriarchs this story before dawn."

"...Understood."

Nara Shikaku shuddered, and a bead of cold sweat slowly appeared on his cheek.

"Then thank you very much."

After Uchiha Ryosuke finished speaking, he vanished instantly.

As he sensed that the aura behind him had vanished without a trace, the cold sweat on Nara Shikaku's cheek slowly slid down his left face.

"Are you alright, Shikaku?"

Yoshino Nara quickly ran out of the house and came to Shikaku Nara's side, asking him with concern.

"What a terrifying guy..."

"Is this the man who killed hundreds of enemy soldiers on the battlefield, resolved the crisis for the village, and single-handedly brought the war to an end?"

Nara Shikaku's emotions remained unsettled for a long time.

He couldn't describe the feeling he had just experienced; only those who had truly gone through it would know just how terrifying the pressure was.

That man, Uchiha Ryosuke, looked even a few years younger than himself.

But when he stands before you, you feel as if you are facing a colossal figure, filled with sacred majesty.

He makes you afraid to look him in the eye, afraid to breathe deeply, and even afraid to speak freely.

"Is the Uchiha clan really going to rebel?"

Seeing her husband's wary expression, Nara Yoshino cautiously asked in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, Nara Shikaku turned around and gave his wife a deep look.

Then, he reached out and touched Yoshino Nara's hair, reassuring her, "You don't need to worry about this, I'll handle it."

"You should go back and rest first. I have to go out now."

After saying that, Nara Shikaku raised his head and looked at the dim streetlights outside the courtyard wall.

Uchiha Ryosuke's parting words had a very simple meaning.

He wanted to act as a messenger, conveying the message he had just received to the other clans in Konoha, as well as the main ninjas.

Of course, it's important to express this in a way that makes everyone clearly aware of the seriousness of the problem, so that they can properly weigh the pros and cons and prevent the entire Hidden Leaf Village from falling into an even greater crisis.

This will test the communication skills of your strategist.

They dealt with the Hyuga clan, whose strength was second only to the Uchiha in Konoha.

Through further communication, he arranged for Nara Shikaku to act as his envoy, conveying information to other clans and key ninjas.

After that, Uchiha Ryosuke left Konoha.

He carried his handwritten letter of recommendation and headed towards the capital of the Fire Kingdom.

At the same time, Koharu Utatane, Homura Mitokado, and others hurriedly sent someone to contact Danzo Shimura to discuss how to deal with the Uchiha clan.

The two found Shimura Danzo and explained their purpose.

He also revealed that Uchiha Ryosuke had written a letter of recommendation for himself, intending to force the Daimyo of the Land of Fire to appoint him as the Fourth Hokage of Konoha.

However, Shimura Danzo did not react much after hearing this news.

He acted as if it had nothing to do with him at all.

"Danzo, why aren't you saying anything?"

Koharu Utatane was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, frowning as she questioned Danzo.

Mitokado also looked puzzled.

At this point, Danzo Shimura slowly said, "I proposed many times to target the Uchiha clan, but none of you supported my decision."

"Now, the Uchiha clan has produced a genius ninja like Uchiha Ryosuke, whose strength far surpasses that of ordinary ninjas."

"Now that the Uchiha clan has a powerful ally and plans to seize power, you're only now thinking of dealing with them. Don't you think it's too late?"

Shimura Danzo's words left Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu looking at each other in astonishment.

The two stared at each other, speechless for a moment.

Because they genuinely hadn't considered such consequences beforehand.

"What's the point of saying all this now, Danzo? The most important thing is to stop the Uchiha clan from rebelling! You don't want the Uchiha clan to come to power and become the rulers of Konoha, do you?"

Mitokado Yan said in a deep voice.

Danzo Shimura remained silent.

He actually had unspeakable suffering, which he couldn't express.

In his two previous encounters with Uchiha Ryosuke, although neither side went all out, the simple probing had already made Shimura Danzo realize something.

This new generation genius ninja from the Uchiha clan is no longer someone who can be threatened simply by the sheer number of ninjas.

In other words, whether he fights alone or is surrounded by a group of people, the outcome is the same.

There is no difference.

Uchiha Ryosuke alone could turn the entire Hidden Leaf Village upside down.
