Inside the reception room, there was a deathly silence.
No one answered Shisui's question; not even Fugaku spoke.
The reason? It was too embarrassing!
A clan head betrayed by almost all his clansn—he truly set a precedent for the Uchiha.
"They all defected to the Radical Faction."
Uchiha Shiming said coldly.
Then.
He gave Shisui a complex look, then ignored Fugaku: "I don't see any aning in this so-called eting. While I'm unwilling to join the Radical Faction, I also don't want to acknowledge you, Fugaku, as the clan head."
"You are too much of a failure!"
"Elder Amano was right; I also advise you to resign voluntarily."
"From today onwards, I will not acknowledge your clan head orders. You should look out for yourself from now on."
After speaking.
Uchiha Shiming left with his subordinates, clearly having completely given up on Fugaku.
Uchiha Shifang also left.
However, he didn't mock Fugaku, but his underlying aning was clear: he would no longer recognize Fugaku as the clan head.
Almost instantly.
The entire reception room beca completely empty.
Besides Fugaku and Shisui, only three of Fugaku's confidants remained.
"Clan Head, are you alright?"
Shisui felt a bit awkward, his eyes filled with sympathy.
And, in response.
Fugaku took a deep breath, forcing a smile: "Shisui, you've seen in a bad light."
"No, I just..." Shisui tried to explain.
But before he could finish, Fugaku interrupted him directly: "Shisui, you're not good at comforting people, and I don't need comfort anyway. So let's talk about serious matters."
"I'm sure you've heard about the Ancestral Land incident."
Shisui nodded, his face heavy.
Although he also wanted to reclaim the Uchiha Ancestral Land, he didn't want to use Uchiha Jin's thods.
In his opinion, the situation between the Uchiha and the Village was already very tense, and he had tried his best to maintain it, but he ran into the madman Uchiha Jin.
This made him feel extrely helpless!
The results of his hard work were completely ruined by Uchiha Jin with a casual gesture.
So, alas!
After a helpless sigh, Shisui said with a heavy tone: "Clan Head, you're right, this is absolutely not a good thing. We must stop this."
"Mm, that's good!" Fugaku said gravely upon hearing this: "Then let's go together."
"We must convince Uchiha Jin; he cannot be allowed to destroy this excellent situation!"
Shisui nodded, not refusing.
Subsequently.
The two, having completely made up their minds, naturally did not hesitate and went directly to the Radical Faction's compound.
Then—they were stunned!
The Radical Faction's compound before them was peaceful and serene, and everyone on the street had smiles on their faces, sothing that would have been absolutely impossible in the Uchiha Clan Compound before.
Because of the Village's coercion and Fugaku's inaction, the Uchiha clansn were naturally constantly on edge.
But, now?
They actually saw this in the Radical Faction's compound, which made it sowhat difficult for them to accept at once.
"No, absolutely impossible!"
"These must be fake; Uchiha Jin is so radical, how could the clansn be so peaceful?"
"I don't believe it, it's all fake!"
Fugaku's voice was a bit hoarse, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Yes!
In his original imagination, these clansn should have been numb.
Especially under Uchiha Jin's leadership, they should have been suffering even more than before; it was normal for the Radical Faction not to know how to govern.
But, now?
The smiles emanating from these clansn, from within, felt particularly jarring to him.
More importantly... if they were so happy following the Radical Faction, would they still recognize him as their clan head in the future?
His fears quickly ca true!
As soon as he spoke, he instantly attracted the attention of all the Uchiha on the street.
However.
When everyone saw Fugaku, not a single person greeted him; instead, they all started to move away as if they had encountered sothing dirty.
Fugaku's expression grew even uglier!
Shisui was also very surprised by this scene, but he quickly took a deep breath: "Clan Head, relax, these are all temporary, just an illusion of peace."
"Our path is the correct one. Only by reconciling with the Village and truly integrating the Uchiha into the Village can we achieve true peace."
Fugaku regained his composure with Shisui's comfort.
Right!
This was just a false peace!
The Village's strength was too great; only appeasent offered a way out.
Although the Radical Faction seed to be doing well now, the rift with the Village was growing wider. Continuing this way would inevitably lead to the clan's destruction... anwhile, on the other side.
In Uchiha Jin's small courtyard, everyone was also holding a eting.
No choice!
His small courtyard wasn't large to begin with, Uchiha Jin wasn't soone who indulged in luxuries, and with all the issues in the Village and within the clan, he simply didn't have the mind to expand his courtyard.
He hadn't felt anything before, but now, with more and more subordinates, it naturally beca stretched thin.
Just like now... if they wanted to hold a eting, everyone could only gather in the courtyard!
"This ti, reclaiming the Ancestral Land was actually a coincidence."
"I didn't expect the clansn helping with the relocation to just happen to delay the Police Force's work, which caused Hiruzen Sarutobi a headache, leading him to exchange the Ancestral Land for the Uchiha returning to work in the Police Force."
"So, this ti."
"The credit belongs to everyone!"
Uchiha Jin smiled.
At this mont, he sat at the head of the table, announcing the results to everyone.
And, in response.
Everyone present, upon hearing these words, almost uniformly gasped in surprise.
It was so difficult!
Losing the Ancestral Land was a pain for almost all Uchiha.
But, this ti.
Uchiha Jin had brought it back!
This also caused everyone's support for Uchiha Jin to skyrocket countless tis in an instant. After all, compared to Fugaku, who failed at everything, Uchiha Jin was the king truly worthy of their trust!
As for the so-called credit belonging to everyone, people didn't actually agree with that point.
Because if Fugaku had encountered this matter, the result would definitely have been to make everyone suffer in silence and then obediently go to work; he wouldn't dare to fight for anything with the Hokage.
"Elder Jin, thank you so much."
"Please don't flatter us; we have no credit. Without a reliable superior, no matter how hard we work, it would be aningless."
"If it were Fugaku, the Uchiha would definitely have to bow their heads in this matter."
"Yes, exactly, maybe even apologize!"
"It was Danzo who assassinated us Uchiha, and Fugaku didn't dare to resist, not even to defend himself. How could we expect him to ask Konoha for our Ancestral Land?"
...
Everyone present spoke up.
The entire courtyard instantly beca a sea of joy. Unlike Fugaku and Shisui, they didn't overthink things; since Uchiha Jin had the ability, everyone would just follow Uchiha Jin's command.
And, in response.
Uchiha Jin's smile grew even wider, but then he reached out to stop everyone.
"Let's just be happy for a bit, then we need to return to reality."
"Our Uchiha situation is already not good; everyone needs to work even harder in the future."
"So, let's talk business."
"I haven't been paying attention to the Village recently, does anyone know its current situation?"
"Without the Uchiha Police Force, how chaotic has the Village beco now?"
