Fugaku's face was ashen, but his back was covered in cold sweat.
He knew very well in his heart that if he didn't resolve this matter well today, his prestige would be greatly diminished!
But, here ca the problem!
He couldn't answer any of the questions raised by Uchiha Jin. After a long ti, he gritted his teeth and said: "The slight forbearance within the clan now is to allow the Uchiha to integrate into Konoha!"
"And the result?" Uchiha Jin retorted: "Have we integrated into Konoha?"
Hearing this, Fugaku instantly fell silent.
He indeed hadn't produced any decent results. Although he had worked hard and endured for a lifeti, all he got in return was intensified targeting from the village.
But...
He wanted to talk about his difficulties, but unfortunately, his skin wasn't thick enough.
So taking a deep breath, he still spoke coldly.
"Uchiha Jin, you are too young."
"You don't understand the complexity of the situation at all, but considering your young age, I'm not willing to bicker with you too much."
"Now, let's talk about business!"
Although Fugaku gritted his teeth, he still chose to back down.
He knew he couldn't out-argue Uchiha Jin, so he tactfully chose to change the subject, bringing up the current troubles within the clan, and hoping everyone could think of a way to overco the difficulties together.
In response to this.
Uchiha Jin's expression remained normal.
Seeing Fugaku back down, he naturally ceased fire.
Uchiha Jin certainly understood the principle of not pressing a desperate foe too hard, so he fell into silence, too lazy to participate in the clan eting's discussion.
The Radical Faction did the sa!
Perhaps in the past, they were interested in arguing at clan etings, but now with Uchiha Jin's rise, the Radical Faction's behavior had long changed completely.
They had no interest in etings now. Once Uchiha Jin made arrangents, they would just act directly!
They disdained this kind of wrangling process.
If not for Uchiha Jin's participation this ti, the Radical Faction mbers probably wouldn't have bothered to co.
...
On the other side.
With Fugaku starting to preside over the clan eting, everyone present also expressed their opinions one after another.
"I think we should discuss this kind of thing with Hokage-sama."
"Right, we can't be rash!"
"The Uchiha's situation is already very delicate; we must be more cautious in our future actions."
"I agree too, let's discuss it."
"..."
The Neutral and Moderate factions expressed their suggestions one after another.
Above the clan eting, the atmosphere was harmonious.
Because the Radical Faction didn't speak up, there were naturally no argunts at the clan eting, and everything seed so harmonious.
Everyone in the Naka Shrine felt sowhat strange at this mont.
After all, a clan eting without argunts was unprecedented today, and they really couldn't adapt to it for a while.
Fugaku, who was leading, also felt quite awkward.
He coughed slightly: "Elder Jin, what is the Radical Faction's opinion?"
"No opinion!" Uchiha Jin said lightly: "We agree."
Everyone's mouth twitched.
They couldn't quite understand; he agreed just like that?
Is this still the Radical Faction?
Shisui frowned slightly, and in his simplicity, he asked directly: "What conspiracy are you plotting?"
"Conspiracy? Hehe!" Uchiha Jin's face was full of disdain: "You underestimate too much!"
"I, Uchiha Jin, have never engaged in conspiracies, and I disdain engaging in conspiracies and tricks."
"But since you want to know, there's no harm in telling you!"
"The reason I don't object is because my Radical Faction's station is impregnable. No matter how chaotic the outside world is, it won't affect my Radical Faction. Since that's the case, why should I interfere in your ssy affairs?"
"I'm eager for you to continue being stupid, and then have more Three-Tomoe Uchiha elites die. When all your corpses are sent to the Root laboratory dissection table, and all your Three-Tomoe Sharingan are implanted into Danzo's arm..."
"The more your faction's elites die, the more fearful the clansn supporting you will be. At that ti, they will naturally join my Radical Faction."
"This is a good thing, why should I object?"
Uchiha Jin's expression was normal, and his tone was as calm as ever.
Yes, an open conspiracy!
He simply disdained playing with conspiracies and tricks. Coming from China, he understood very well that conspiracies wouldn't get him far, so he always played with upright and open conspiracies.
Just like now, he chose to tell the truth.
But so what if the opponent knew his plan? Given the stupidity of the Moderate and Neutral factions, they would still act according to his plan.
Trust the village, don't defend, and let more people die!
He just needed to wait until their factions collapsed on their own, and other Uchiha clansn would naturally choose to defect to him.
And indeed, it was so.
With Uchiha Jin's words, the faces of the Moderate and Neutral factions instantly beca extrely ugly.
Shisui was angry and slamd the table: "Uchiha Jin, you..."
"Did I say sothing wrong?" Uchiha Jin's face was full of indifference: "Are you preparing to resist?"
"It's not that I look down on you, but you idiots don't have the guts. Even if you really resist, you yourselves will beco the Radical Faction."
"And if you choose to trust Sarutobi Hiruzen, then you fall right into my plan. I'll just quietly watch your faction's elites go to their deaths."
"No matter what you choose, in short, I won't lose out!"
With Uchiha Jin's words, the entire Naka Shrine fell into dead silence.
Everyone had to admit that Uchiha Jin's thods were terrifying; even knowing his plan, they had no solution.
Silence!
After a long ti.
Shisui gritted his teeth and said: "I trust Hokage-sama, your plan will definitely not succeed!"
"Whatever, as long as you're happy!" Uchiha Jin shrugged.
On the other side.
Fugaku also fell into a long silence, his brain instantly starting to spin frantically.
But, unfortunately.
It was useless!
Learn from the Radical Faction and actively defend?
Can't do it!
But if the status quo was maintained, the deaths of elite clansn would continue, playing right into Uchiha Jin's plan.
Unlike the naive Shisui, he knew Root's ruthlessness and understood Danzo's insidious nature even better.
So the other party would absolutely not stop secretly hunting Uchiha elites; because if Uchiha Jin wasn't lying, then Three-Tomoe Sharingan were a rigid demand for Danzo.
Talking to Sarutobi Hiruzen? He didn't hold much hope for that either.
If it were really useful, the situation wouldn't have deteriorated into this ss!
What made him even more helpless was that this matter couldn't affect the Radical Faction, because they had long fenced off their station, and it wasn't that simple for Root to make a move.
What to do?
Fugaku found that he couldn't muddle through anymore!
If he followed his previous thinking, he would probably muddle through this ti too, and this clan eting would definitely end without any results.
But this ti, it wouldn't work!
Because of Uchiha Jin's words, if he continued to choose to muddle through, then as ti passed, more and more people would defect to the Radical Faction, and his position as Clan Head would likely beco unstable.
No, absolutely not!
Uchiha Jin was too radical. He must not be allowed to beco the Clan Head, otherwise, the Uchiha would truly be finished.
Can't rush.
There must be a way!
Fugaku kept trying to convince himself, gritting his teeth, constantly trying to think of a solution.
