Chapter 123, Productivity
Riji caught up with Sihu, who was walking back.
"Senior Sihu, please wait a moment."
Hiashi and Fugaku were of the same generation, so it's not wrong for Hiashi to call Shiko a senior.
Shihu has a keen eye for observation. After the Hyuga clan activated their Byakugan, their expressions were all very strange, and they kept trying to convey messages through their eyes.
He knew that the Hyuga clan had obtained some intelligence.
Now that the Japanese team has caught up, that's what we're talking about.
Sure enough, Hiashi approached Shitora and lowered his voice, saying:
"Senior Sihu, we just discovered with our Byakugan that some of the members of Konoha's Anbu are actually from Root."
"There was no fighting inside Root at all; the Root members just followed the Anbu on their own."
Si Hu seemed to have a sudden flash of inspiration; no wonder Danzo's side offered virtually no resistance.
I thought Danzo believed the Third Hokage.
It now seems that Danzo mixed his own people with the Third Hokage's ANBU to ensure his own safety.
Si Hu nodded slightly: "I understand. We Uchiha will go back and discuss it. We will let you know as soon as we have a result."
Hiashi bowed to Shihu and said, "Thank you, Senior Shihu."
Si Hu waved his hand, and the two sides separated and sped off towards their respective clan territories.
……
Uchiha clan.
Qianyao surveyed the clan's territory, checking for potential dangers.
What he was thinking about was how Konoha would respond.
Before long, a clansman came to report that Qianyao needed to go to the meeting room because the clan leader and the eldest elder had returned.
When Qianyao arrived at the conference room.
Fugaku, Shitora, and Orochimaru were already waiting for him.
These three people were all on his side, and Qian Yao, without exchanging pleasantries, went straight to the question upon entering:
"How did Konoha respond?"
Orochimaru didn't say anything, but judging from his expression, he probably already knew.
At this moment, Shihu revealed that the Third Hokage had yielded to him and Hiashi, including allowing them to set conditions in exchange for peace.
And Hiashi told him about how the Root and Dark Side members were mixed together.
Qian Yao raised an eyebrow slightly. This Third Hokage was truly flexible and resilient; he could actually endure it under these circumstances.
"The fact that the Root and the Anbu are mixed together means Danzo is afraid of dying."
"Chiyo, is our condition this time to kill Danzo? The Third Hokage claims he has already captured him."
Si Hu asked Qian Yao.
Fugaku was also waiting for Chiyo's reply.
Orochimaru, standing nearby, gleamed with interest in his eyes.
It seems that Chiyo has long been the de facto leader of the Uchiha clan.
Qianyao shook his finger: "No, Danzo can be killed at any time, but we shouldn't rush to kill him now."
"Because he would constantly cling to Hiruzen Sarutobi and suck his blood."
"As long as Danzo lives, he can only be a burden to Hiruzen Sarutobi."
"As long as Danzo is still around, we will have a reason to attack Hiruzen Sarutobi's side."
Only Chiyo knew how many unjust accusations Danzo had committed.
Moreover, Chiyo was well aware of Danzo's many talents and abilities.
This is a man who is ruthless in his pursuit of power and has unwavering convictions.
He firmly believes that everything he does that harms Konoha is for the purpose of protecting Konoha.
Although Danzo always brought various powerful enemies to Konoha, his mind was never broken, and he always managed to maintain logical consistency.
He is the only purely black character in this world.
Although Uchiha Shitora still only partially understood, there was certainly a reason behind what Chiyo said.
"Alright, if Danzo isn't killed, what demands do we have?"
Qian Yao rubbed his fingers together, making a counting motion: "Money."
Fugaku and Shitora looked somewhat taken aback, not understanding why Chiyo wanted the money.
Only Orochimaru looked at Chiyo with a surprised expression.
Chiyo smiled at Orochimaru and then said:
"When a truly strong person appears in our Uchiha clan."
"Now, such conspiracies and tricks are considered shameful and unacceptable."
Both Fugaku and Shitora looked solemn. Fugaku said in a deep voice, "Do you want the Eternal Kaleidoscope?"
Qianyao slowly shook his head: "Not enough. The Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan is just the starting point for our Uchiha clan."
"But this is not the end for the Uchiha clan."
"We must be clear that seizing power in Konoha is our first step."
"But even if we seize power now, we still have too few skilled people at our disposal."
"The fact that there are no top-tier experts is very detrimental to our future development."
"Once we have truly top-tier experts, we won't need to worry about those allied ninja clans anymore."
"The best tool for the Uchiha clan to climb to the top is the Sharingan."
"We should put a lot of effort into studying him."
"It is important to understand that technology is the primary productive force."
"Now we have Orochimaru, the world's smartest scientist, joining us."
"We must provide him with the best research environment."
"We need to broaden our horizons and not just focus on killing Danzo."
"Alright then, Qianyao, you decide."
Shihu made the decision immediately, and although Fugaku was somewhat confused, he did not object.
While they accepted Qianyao's viewpoint, it was primarily based on their trust and support for Qianyao.
However, they cannot yet understand what supports science.
After all, Orochimaru hadn't researched anything groundbreaking before.
"Let me tell you what kind of enemies we'll encounter in the future..."
Chiyo briefly described how he would encounter the resurrected Uchiha Madara, and even Kaguya Otsutsuki, as well as the alien Otsutsuki.
Although the two looked extremely surprised, they still tried to understand and believe what Qianyao said.
As for Orochimaru, he was overjoyed to hear that there would be aliens in the future.
And here it is, sticking out its tongue to wash its face again.
Qianyao looked at it and laughed:
"Don't worry, now that you've come to the clan, we'll provide you with the best experimental conditions."
"Although we built a basement for you in the tribe, we don't know anything about the experimental equipment."
"Once you've thought it through, you can make a list and have Konoha purchase it for you."
Orochimaru looked pleased: "That couldn't be better."
Although he was highly skilled in experimentation, he had never used top-of-the-line medical equipment.
After all, many things cannot be bought with money alone.
"On the other hand, we Uchiha should first consolidate our existing power."
"Naruto is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. Although it was no secret to all ninjas before, the common people did not know the significance of this."
"We need to make the public aware of the significance of the existence of tailed beasts and jinchūriki."
"And our Uchiha Mangekyou Sharingan is like a lock on the Jinchuriki."
"To ensure that the Jinchuriki does not go berserk, the Mangekyou Sharingan of the Uchiha clan is indispensable."
"As for the Hyuga clan, I will advise them to take over all of Konoha's defense authority."
"Including the barrier team, the exploration team, the patrol team..."
