Kapitel 54: Uchiha’S Reputation Changed Drastically
[A/N:-2100+ words if you find any mistakes pls point it out. Thank you for reading 🖤]
Senju clan land.
"Chief of the Uchiha Clan, you suddenly came to see me. Is there something wrong?"
Takuya looked at Chishima and asked strangely.
" Takuya, there is indeed something I want you to help with," Chishima sighed. " Takuya, you also know that our clan is in an embarrassing situation in the village now. Many villagers are unwilling to have anything to do with us. Obviously, the clan that founded Konoha is now being ostracized by the entire village."
"Oh... I really have no choice. Takuya, you must help me," Chishima said with a sigh.
Ever since the Second Hokage established the Konoha Police Force, our clan's reputation has become worse and worse. Later, there were decades of suppression by Hiruzen and Danzō. Now, it would be no exaggeration to say that our shinobi and the villagers are hostile to each other.
Even in the recently opened entertainment city, no one is willing to go to our stores. If this situation continues, no matter who is in power in the future, our situation will not be easy. In desperation, Chishima had to find Takuya, hoping that he could help.
"..." After hearing Chishima's words, Takuya hesitated.
" Takuya, if you can help us improve our current situation, I am willing to return all the original copper mines," Chishima gritted his teeth and said. Although ten copper mines are valuable, for the future of our clan, this price is nothing.
"Since the leader of the Uchiha Clan is so sincere, then leave this matter to me," Takuya said calmly. Ten copper mines were his betrothal gift when he was pursuing Mikoto. Now, isn't this coming back?
"Great, then I'll wait for the good news from you," Chishima originally came to Takuya with the attitude of giving it a try, but he didn't expect that the other party actually had a solution.
Only, seeing Takuya agreeing so happily, Chishima felt a little unsure. Can the things that have troubled him for so many years really be solved?
The next day, Konoha Newspapers' edition was released as scheduled. What was different from the past was that nearly a quarter of the newspaper's page was occupied by one article. The content of this article introduced the origin of Konoha Village in detail: from the Warring States period, our clans killing each other, to Hashirama and Madara's unexpected alliance.
The two fought and reconciled for many years. Hashirama and Madara worked together to end the wars and joined forces to build Konoha's glory. The article also highlighted the sacrifices and bloody battles fought by the shinobi of our clans to protect the village.
Additionally, the article focused on the unique character of our people: "Because of the influence of the Sharingan, they might appear aloof and arrogant, but their hearts are full of love and righteousness."
"There is a saying that if you have a good relationship with one of us, you must listen to what he says." "It is precisely because of this that we were assigned the task of maintaining public order in the village by the Second Hokage."
The article was supplemented with related deeds and anecdotes. After the newspaper was published, it soon caused a great response in Konoha.
"I didn't expect that Uchiha clan has paid so much for the village!"
"Hahahahaha... it turns out that they are all a bunch of tsunderes."
"If you have a good relationship with one of them, then you must listen to what he says... No, I'm laughing so hard."
"Now that I think about it, isn't it because the Police Force handles problems so meticulously that they are unpopular?"
"The Senju clan united with our clan to end the Warring States period and create the one-country-one-village system... This is so inspiring!"
"Third Hokage-sama is known as the 'strongest Hokage', but is he really stronger than the First Hokage and Madara, who dominated an era?"
"They have made so many contributions to the village and have character flaws. We should all be more tolerant of them."
"Yes, after knowing the story of the First Hokage and Madara, I want to find a Uchiha clansman to make friends with."
Under the deliberate guidance of the newspaper, our clan's reputation changed almost overnight. As the founders of Konoha, having made so many contributions to the village, we were deemed worthy of respect. Many villagers even became interested in our tsundere nature and wanted to make friends with our shinobi.
Of course, although the main aim was to rectify the name of our clan, the prestige of the Senju clan also increased significantly. Takuya was very satisfied with this immediate effect. As for the others, they were almost all dumbfounded.
Uchiha Clan compound.
"It actually happened!"
"As expected of Chief Takuya, I am truly convinced this time," Chishima looked at the newspaper in his hand, with an excited smile on his face. That day, when he went shopping in Konoha Village, many villagers took the initiative to greet him with respect on their faces. He had never experienced this kind of treatment before. As long as our members are restrained, there is no need to worry about being ostracized by the villagers anymore.
"Father, how can you willingly submit to Takuya? The honor of our clan does not allow us to bow to the Senju clan!" Fugaku suddenly spoke.
Snapped!
What he received in response was a loud slap in the face.
"You idiot, still can't you see the situation clearly?"
"Takuya is more sophisticated than the First Hokage back then, and we are not Madara back then. I tell you, Takuya is not someone we can afford to offend. Keep your thoughts to yourself. If our clan gets into trouble because of you, I won't forgive you even if you are my son!" Chishima snapped.
He knew that because of Mikoto, Fugaku had always harbored resentment toward Takuya. So, he had to discipline his son. Otherwise, if Fugaku did something drastic, our clan would surely fall from heaven to hell again. Chishima had realized the importance of this situation. Takuya must not be messed with!
"Go back to your room and reflect," Chishima waved his hand impatiently, not noticing Fugaku's Sharingan spinning crazily.
The other clan leaders in Konoha had similar thoughts as Chishima. After they learned about our clan's reputation reversal, they were all surprised and couldn't close their mouths from ear to ear. Changing the villagers' view of our clan so drastically in just one day was truly a terrifying power. For a time, many clan leaders came to visit the Senju clan with gifts, hoping Takuya could say a few good words for their families in the newspaper.
Hokage Building.
Hokage office.
Hiruzen and Danzō looked gloomy and terrifying. In front of them was the latest issue of a newspaper published by Konoha Newspaper.
"I didn't expect that such a simple newspaper could have such great power," Hiruzen said melancholy as he smoked his pipe. "Danzo, what do you think?"
"Things like this that can easily guide public opinion must be controlled by us," Danzō said coldly. As an expert in manipulating public opinion, he was very sensitive to this matter. The appearance of the newspaper made him feel a huge crisis.
After the reputation of Uchiha clan improved, he once sent people to try to spread bad words about them as before. However, those who were sent out just said a few bad words and were almost beaten up by the villagers. The methods he used in the past could no longer be used.
"Hiruzen," Danzo continued, "unless we dismantle everything, with Takuya's current power, we cannot touch the Konoha Newspaper. You go back first and let me be alone."
Hiruzen seemed to have aged ten years suddenly, and his whole spirit had disappeared. He was panicking now. Newspapers could guide public opinion to rectify the name of our clan, but they could also guide public opinion to destroy his reputation. Hiruzen had a vague premonition. Konoha Newspaper was founded by Takuya to deal with him. However, there was nothing he could do about it. Now there is no one left in his hands that he could use.
"Hiruzen, I won't give up," Danzō snorted lightly, turned, and left. "Root" still has hundreds of elite shinobi loyal to me. If it comes to it, he would defect from Konoha with his men. As long as the green hills remain, there is no need to worry about running out of firewood. As long as he is alive, one day he will become Konoha's "shadow."
A few more days passed.
Yamanaka Ono, Akimichi Ryoko, and Nara Miki all gave birth. Initially, they married into the Senju clan together. Unexpectedly, even their childbirth was on the same day.
Inside Konoha Hospital, Takuya, Kushina, and others were waiting outside the delivery room. Not long after, the babies' cries began. Ryoko and the others were pushed out of the delivery room, each holding a baby in their arms.
[Ding!]
[Children +1, get rewards: Physique +10, Chakra +10, Mental Power +10! Summoning Technique·Nine-faced Su Po Ke!]
[Ding!]
[Children +1, get rewards: Physique +10, Chakra +10, Mental Power +10! Wind Style·Great Spiraling Whirl!]
[Ding!]
[Children +1, get rewards: Physique +10, Chakra +10, Mental Power +10! The five elemental ninjutsu are strengthened by 100%!]
A series of system prompts sounded, and the smile on Takuya's face became even wider. Getting three rewards at once made him feel good.
sowaka is a Summoning technique. It can summon nine-faced beasts: green, black, white, red, empty, south, north, three, jade. Each beast has particularly powerful abilities.
The Great Spiraling Whirl is a ninjutsu comparable to the "Super Shinra Tensei." Menma once used this move to destroy the entire Konoha.
As for the 100% enhancement of the Five Element Ninjutsu... To put it simply, the Water Style, Fire Style, Earth Style, and Wind Style released by Takuya have doubled in power.
"Takuya, hurry up," Kushina urged. "It's time for you to pick the names again."
After hearing Kushina's words, Takuya came back to his senses. This time, except for Miki, who gave birth to a boy, the other two gave birth to girls.
"Well... let's call the boy Jiu. Ryoko's child will be called Chou. Ono's child... let's call her Kaori," Takuya smiled.
Now, he already had seven children. Moreover, the bellies of Inuzuka Tsume and others were gradually getting bigger. In the future, the population of the Senju clan would definitely become more and more prosperous.
Two months passed in a blink of an eye. After a period of development, Konoha Newspaper had become completely established. The newspapers published by the office had also become must-read publications for villagers every day.
The entertainment city had also been completely improved. As expected, the entertainment city was favored by the shinobi as soon as it was built. Every clan also made a lot of money. On this basis, Takuya also planned a food court and shopping mall... and once again invited various clans in Konoha to invest.
This time, the clans that had tasted the benefits increased their investment. With the bundling of interests, the connections between various clans became closer. Following Senju meant having meat to eat. It once became the creed of every clan in Konoha.
Takuya's image as someone who cannot be offended grew stronger in everyone's mind. Many clans that originally remained neutral also wanted to align with the Senju clan. However, Takuya did not give a good look to these neutral clans. When the situation was unclear, these clans chose to be neutral. Now that the situation had been decided, they wanted to form an alliance again. There is no such good thing in this world. In this case, those clan leaders who had remained neutral before all regretted it. They knew very well that if they did not stand on the right side during the change of power, the decline of the clan was inevitable. In the future, what awaits them is likely to be a gradual decline.
Besides, Hatake Sakumo's shinobi training had also made great progress. He imitated the system of "Anbu" and established an organization called "Shadow." Although the strength of "Shadow" is not strong yet, it is enough to protect the Senju clan's interests. Additionally, under the instruction of Takuya, the "Shadow" shinobi not only protect the Senju family's interests but are also responsible for collecting intelligence from all over the ninja world. A huge intelligence network was slowly taking shape.
Kakuzu was called back to Konoha by Takuya. Now that the Senju family is gradually growing, there will inevitably be areas that cannot be managed by Takuya alone. He needed some powerful shinobi to protect his wife and the newly born children.
For this role, Kakuzu was very happy. Under the temptation of tens of millions of ryo of remuneration every year, he is happy to do whatever is needed.
Just when everything was developing according to Takuya's plan, there was news that surprised him. The leader of the Uchiha Clan, Chishima, had died!
