Chapitre 31: **Chapter 31: Warmly Welcome Danzo!**
"You're being too reckless!"
Setsuna reprimanded, "I clearly told you, I have... Hmph, only you can unleash its full potential."
"No need, I feel like these eyes are pretty good. They are the most suitable for me. Thank you, Elder Setsuna. I'll treat you to a meal sometime."
Itsuki shrugged and said, "Clan Leader Fugaku, Elder Zonyi, is there something you need from me?"
Fugaku and Zonyi exchanged glances.
Zonyi slowly spoke, "Itsuki, I know that the matter with Danzo and the Root has made you uncomfortable, but I hope you can prioritize the bigger picture."
Itsuki tilted his head, staring at him without saying a word.
"Itsuki!"
Zonyi thought he was expressing dissatisfaction, so his tone became more forceful, "You are one of the most outstanding members of the Uchiha's new generation. In the future, the Uchiha will rely on you. Don't act impulsively."
Itsuki still didn't speak, just looked at Zonyi for a while, then at Setsuna, who had a clear sneer on his face, and then at the solemn Fugaku. Suddenly, he revealed a bright smile.
That smile was like warm sunlight melting the snow.
"Elder Zonyi, can I ask you a question?"
"Go ahead!"
Zonyi had a strong, ominous premonition in his heart.
Uchiha Itsuki, this guy was going to cause trouble!
He didn't know if he could handle it!
"Since Madara Uchiha left, you've been enduring, haven't you?"
Most Uchiha admired Madara Uchiha, but there were also some who didn't like him.
Especially during the period of the village's founding, many people disliked him, believing that he wanted to destroy the hard-won peace and bring war to the entire clan.
However, one thing that couldn't be denied was that Madara Uchiha was truly powerful.
When he was around, even Hashirama Senju didn't dare to pressure Madara Uchiha, let alone Tobirama Senju.
The Uchiha of that era, while hating him, also enjoyed the benefits Madara Uchiha brought.
They were quite ungrateful.
Itsuki sneered and asked, "May I ask, what exactly have you gained from your endurance?"
What do you mean, what have I gained from my endurance?
Zonyi's veins were throbbing.
Did this kid know how to speak?
He said angrily, "It's for the greater good, for the Uchiha. Don't you think the Uchiha can fight against the entire Konoha, Itsuki? The reality is that the entire Konoha is targeting the Uchiha."
Fight against the entire Konoha? We actually can now!
Because I have the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan!
Not to mention killing my way in and out of Konoha seven times, I can do it seventy times without a problem, and I can even make detours.
Are you angry?
I can bend Konoha into any position I like at any time.
So, I don't need to endure anymore, I'm just playing!
I'll hide in the shadows, and when I'm not happy, I'll come out and kill you all head-on.
I won't speak for the entire ninja world, but Konoha now belongs to the Uchiha.
Uchiha Itsuki!
Itsuki felt his back straighten even more.
Whether the ninja world is chaotic or not, Uchiha Itsuki has the final say!
He smiled and said, "Of course not, but has your endurance been useful? Will Konoha accept us Uchiha just because you endure? Compared to when Madara Uchiha left, how much progress has the Uchiha made in integrating into the village?"
He interrupted Zonyi, who wanted to speak, "Don't talk about anything else, don't lecture me. I just want to see the facts. Give me a number, how much progress has the Uchiha made in integrating into the village since Madara Uchiha left? Or has there been any progress at all?"
Zonyi was speechless.
Fugaku's expression also changed slightly.
Itsuki's words were straightforward and hit the mark. They indeed hadn't compared the current situation to the time of Madara Uchiha.
Or rather!
They didn't want to make the comparison in their hearts.
Decades of effort had been in vain, how could they accept that?
Madara Uchiha was recognized as a missing-nin, but they were even worse off than a missing-nin.
"Hehe, after decades, not only has there been no progress, but it has probably regressed quite a bit, right?"
"The Uchiha's survival is even more difficult now than when the village was founded."
Itsuki laughed happily, "Isn't that right, Elder Zonyi? How long are you going to endure? Until the Uchiha are exterminated?"
"That's impossible!"
Zonyi said flatly, "Nothing will happen to the Uchiha, absolutely not!"
This time, Fugaku and Setsuna also sided with him.
They were still proud of their clan.
The Uchiha being isolated was seen by many as unique.
They were the strongest humans, the strongest clan in the entire ninja world. No one could deny that.
"Why is it impossible?"
Itsuki laughed even more happily, "Today, if I weren't capable, I would be dead. Who's next? Shisui, then Itachi!"
"Danzo openly tried to kill me, and you endured it. If it were Shisui, you would probably endure it too. What about Itachi? Oh, Itachi probably wouldn't be killed because the Hokage and the others want to train Itachi into their own weapon against the Uchiha."
"One by one, in the end, oh, you'll find that 'I' am the one who died."
Fugaku and the other two frowned deeply, "Itsuki, don't talk nonsense."
"No, I think Brother Itsuki's words make a lot of sense!"
Itachi suddenly interjected.
"Itachi!"
Fugaku's voice was somewhat stern, and there was disappointment in his tone.
As his son, you're not even on your old father's side.
"I'm just telling the truth, Father!"
Itachi lowered his head and said softly, "I've been thinking a lot lately, making many assumptions. If something really happened to Brother Itsuki and Shisui, what would happen to me?"
Itachi expressed that he had decided to become the Uchiha clan leader, so he now had to consider things from the clan leader's perspective.
The Itachi of the past no longer existed.
"You..."
Fugaku was furious.
Did I come here to listen to you say these things?
Are you trying to anger me to death? Unfilial son!
I raised you for nothing.
Hmm?
What did I come here for?
Fugaku was a little confused.
Right!
Setsuna!
Because Setsuna came to find Itsuki, he was worried. Moreover, Itsuki was attacked by Danzo, so he had a reason to come and appease Itsuki.
After figuring it out, Fugaku organized his thoughts and slowly spoke.
"Itsuki, I know you're angry now..."
"Why should I be angry?"
Itsuki looked at Fugaku strangely.
That expression was like looking at a fool.
"Although I was attacked, I wasn't injured. On the contrary, I killed more than ten Root ninjas."
"I even beat up Danzo, giving him two big slaps in the face."
"I feel so refreshed, both physically and mentally."
"Clan Leader, where is this anger you're talking about coming from?"
Itsuki rubbed his hands excitedly, "I wish Danzo would attack me every day."
For a moment, all three of them fell silent.
Itsuki didn't even know that this incident had caused Danzo to lose a large sum of money...
So!
Although it was Danzo who attacked Itsuki, from all angles, it was Itsuki who benefited.
He really shouldn't be angry.
Finally, Itsuki concluded, "I, Uchiha Itsuki, warmly welcome Danzo. Even if you argue until the sky falls, that's what I'll say."
"And you're not allowed to stop Danzo, do you hear me?"
