"Second Elder?"

He asked calmly, but although his words were questions, his tone was unusually certain.

"Mr. Zong, what a pleasure to meet you."

The second elder raised his head and glanced at Uchiha Zong. His expression seemed still calm.

"I heard that Elder Zhenzhong has always wanted to meet you, but you avoided him. So, I am really honored to meet you."

"It's not that I don't want to see him. On the contrary, I'd like to have a good chat with him. It's just that they are too arrogant."

Uchiha Zong smiled and then sat down. Looking at the steaming tea in front of him, he shook his head slightly.

"Last night, Uchiha Keiichi and Uchiha Masao came to 'visit' my house, but their attitude was a little bad, so I rejected them and left them a message."

"Oh?" The Second Elder raised his head slightly: "I would like to hear the details."

"I told them..." Uchiha Zong suddenly smiled: "You are not qualified to talk to me like this."

After saying this, the Second Elder couldn't help but pause slightly.

Uchiha Zong's words have already shown two attitudes. The first is that he doesn't care whether the person he is going to meet is a hawk or a dove.

This is definitely good news, as it means the Second Elder doesn't have to worry about the situation behind the Uchiha Clan.

The second one also made him realize that Uchiha Zong was not the kind of person who liked to be threatened, and lowering his posture appropriately would be more conducive to their communication.

After a long while, the second elder reached out his hand, picked up a teacup and handed it to Uchiha Zong: "Mr. Zong, drink some tea first. Today we are just chatting, no need to be too serious."

"Okay." Uchiha Zong nodded. He did not refuse. After taking the teacup, he said, "I wonder what the elder wants to talk about."

"I would like to ask two questions."

After Uchiha Zong took a sip of tea, the second elder slowly spoke.

“I have heard about your thoughts, Shisui, and I admit that your way of looking at problems and your thoughts are really unique, but they also hit the nail on the head.

But I am curious, if Elder Zhongzhen and I disagree and do not cooperate with your ideas, what will be our fate? "

"You're Shisui's grandfather. You'll be fine."

Faced with this question, Uchiha Mune had nothing to hide, and he answered truthfully except not mentioning anything about Kotoamatsukami.

"As for the others, don't you know what the Uchiha's character is like? Sometimes there are things that are beyond my control."

Uchiha Zong's words made the second elder's face freeze, and then he could only nod silently.

Indeed, as a member of the Uchiha clan, whether they are doves or hawks, they are essentially people who are extremely proud.

Or in other words, if you want to reason with them, you must first talk to them about physics!

Uchiha Madara was defeated by Hashirama Senju and that's why they joined forces to form Konoha. Uchiha Sasuke was also defeated by Naruto and that's why he behaved himself.

Uchiha Zong sometimes wondered whether these doves in the Uchiha clan were just the aftereffects of being defeated by Senju Hashirama back then, otherwise why would they be so cowardly.

"I understand."

The second elder nodded silently, and then he sighed softly.

“The second question, Zong Jun, I wonder if you have realized one thing.

Having ideas is a good thing, but how to do it is another matter.

The world has never lacked idealists, but have these people really come to power? And what will it be like after they come to power?

If you succeed, after all, you have two pairs of kaleidoscopes, but have you thought about how to deal with the consequences of your actions?

The struggle within the family is not just a ninja fight, and you need to consider more than just that.

You also need to consider internal stability, external pressure, and even future policies, etc.!"

Having said that, the second elder stopped and looked at Uchiha Zong and Shisui quietly.

Uchiha Zong fell silent. He did not like the so-called second elder in front of him, but he also had to admit that what the old man said made sense.

There is a huge gap between ideal and reality.

Because there are some important factors that need to be considered here, namely people's hearts and interests.

Although the Uchiha clan can just be defeated, how to lead them into the future and how to deal with the future offensive of Konoha is indeed worth pondering.

After thinking seriously for a moment, Uchiha Zong looked at the second elder with a somewhat dangerous look.

It’s not that he wanted to take action, but he had already begun to seriously consider whether he should let Shisui use Kotoamatsukami now.

However, he still needed to talk to Shisui about this matter. Even though he was sure that Shisui would never refuse, he should at least consider Shisui's attitude.

"Second Elder, I am grateful for your advice. Your words are indeed thought-provoking, and we also failed to consider some aspects.

But after the Second Elder's reminder, I think we will consider it carefully. "

Uchiha Zong stood up and spoke calmly.

“But Second Elder, although we are idealistic, one thing will not change, and that is our determination to change our family.

The Uchiha used to be a lion. There was a time when everyone in the ninja world except the Senju clan was no different from sheep in our eyes.

But now, one group of people arrogantly think that we are still lions, while the other group of people have become as weak as sheep.

In fact, I don't pursue Uchiha to become the same lion as before, but at least not different from now.

He thinks he is a lion, but in reality he is just like a sheep!"

……

Chapter 68 Uchiha Setsuna

In the Uchiha clan, the truly truly Uchiha stood respectfully outside the door of an ancient room.

It is hard to imagine that he, who has already reached the status of the chief elder of the family, would do such a thing.

When the wooden door opened, he took a deep breath and walked towards the room with a hint of seriousness and humility on his face.

This room is as simple as its exterior. There is a sliding door on each side, and a word "忍" (forbearance) hung in the middle. There is no other decoration.

On the tatami in the middle of the room, an old man was sitting there, holding a book in his hands and reading slowly, looking leisurely and contented.

"Elder Setsuna." Uchiha Manaka looked at the old man in front of him, and finally he bowed slightly: "Long time no see."

"I'm not an elder, Zhong Zhen." The old man named Shan Na raised his head and replied with a smile.

Although his face was full of wrinkles and his meticulously combed hair was full of silver, his eyes were exceptionally clear.

The Uchiha clan would definitely feel surprised to hear the name Uchiha Setsuna.

This person was described by the Second Hokage as a 'sinister and cunning person', and he was also the one who inherited Uchiha Madara's will.

When he was the elder of the Uchiha clan, he was quite dissatisfied with the policy of the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, in governing the Uchiha clan.

He has always longed to take back sovereignty from the Senju clan, and is an important member of the Uchiha clan's hawk faction. He was even thrown into prison by the Anbu sent by the Second Hokage!

However, the prison was controlled by the Uchiha, and he was eventually released after the death of the Second Hokage.

But time is unforgiving. Now he has retired from the position of great elder and lived behind the scenes. He seems to have become an idle old man.

"Do you have any questions for me this time?"

Uchiha Sha had a smile on his face. He nodded and spoke slowly.

"You did a good job. At least now our philosophy has the upper hand in the family, right?"

"I also want to thank the Great Elder for his kindness and promotion, otherwise I would never have been able to achieve this step."

Uchiha Chuuma still remained humble, but now he raised his head and thought for a moment before he slowly spoke.

"Elder Setsuna, we are in some trouble right now, and I really need a notice from you."

"Is it the problem with the child named Uchiha Mune?"

Uchiha Setsuna thought about it for a moment and he got the answer.

Although he does not leave the house now, it does not mean that he does not have enough sources of information. Moreover, the Uchiha Hawk Faction was created by him.

Even though he has stepped down, he can still take control of everything again if he wants!

"Yes, Elder Setsuna." Uchiha Chushin nodded: "That child may have a misunderstanding with me, and his father also..."

"That's not unexpected, is it?"

However, before Uchiha Chuujin could finish his words, Uchiha Setsuna shook his head slightly.

"Xin Yi's child values ​​his family the most. Since you helped him in the beginning, he will naturally choose to help you.

But when it comes to his family, he will change immediately. As a member of the Uchiha family, don't you know this?"

Uchiha Manaka sat there in silence. He was naturally aware of this, otherwise he would not have helped Uchiha Shin'i in the first place.

But he thought he was very good to Uchiha Shinyi, and he didn't understand why Uchiha Shinyi would do this.

"Wondering why he's on guard against you?"

Uchiha Setsuna seemed to have seen through his thoughts and his words hit the nail on the head.

"Have you ever thought that it was your behavior that made him feel uneasy?

Although you didn't kill the doves, you have already led to the current extreme confrontation.

It is understandable that you want to use the most extreme means against the village. After all, I have the same idea.

But you have only inherited our ideas, but have you really thought about how to do it?

Stop talking about working hard to become the Fourth Hokage. Haven't you seen clearly the true nature of Konoha?

Combining these two things, I'm afraid any Uchiha member who loves his family will have some reservations."

Uchiha Setsuna's words made Uchiha Chuuma clench his fists slightly, but he remained silent.

Because he had to admit that these were facts.

At this stage he really had no idea how to fight against Konoha. In addition to the factor of war, he also had his own considerations.

According to his idea, the clan leader would compete for the Fourth Hokage.

In order to succeed, he even did not hesitate to attack other candidates, but Uchiha Setsuna had always been opposed to this.

In addition to this, the clan leader Uchiha Fugaku has never clearly supported any side, which means that they can only try their best to gain the support of more clan members!

"This child, has he really opened the kaleidoscope?"

Looking at the silent Uchiha Manaka, Uchiha Setsuna shook his head slightly, and finally he asked curiously.

"Elder Setsuna, I don't know either."

Uchiha Manaka shook his head slightly, but soon his expression became a little serious.

"But it is very likely that he has already activated it. Not only did he single-handedly defeat the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist Ninja, but last night he also used the Three Magatama State to..."

"You drove away your two subordinates, didn't you?"

Uchiha Setsuna interrupted Uchiha Manaka with a smile and shook his head before he could finish his words.

"I don't know whether he has activated it or not, but regardless of whether he has activated it or not, with such a resume and such strength, you shouldn't treat him like this!

Although you have become the great elder, second only to our clan leader, this is not a reason for you to be arrogant in front of everyone.

After all, ninjas are beings that value strength. Although we have established a series of rules to prevent barbaric things from happening, rules will always be broken.

Especially when someone has enough power to challenge the rules, you should not expect him to follow them, because he can make the rules himself. "

Speaking of this, Uchiha Setsuna suddenly thought of Uchiha Madara back then.

Back then, Madara was a person who could break the rules, but unfortunately, in that era, there were still people who could make him stick to the bottom line of the rules.

When Uchiha Chuzhen heard these words, he felt as if his back was wet for an instant.

He was really furious after hearing what Uchiha Keiichi and Uchiha Masao said last night, because Uchiha Zong's actions were really a slap in his face.

However, considering the mysterious strength of the Uchiha clan and the fact that everyone was from the same clan, he finally decided to ask his predecessors.

Fortunately, he came, otherwise he would not know how the situation would develop!

"Thank you for your guidance, Elder Setsuna."

After understanding his problem, Uchiha Chushin immediately stood up and bowed to Uchiha Setsuna.

"If you could really listen to me more, maybe you wouldn't be thinking about the Fourth Hokage anymore."
