Half a month later.
Mirai Uchiha led the ninjas from the front back to Konoha Village.
Unlike the previous times, this time Mirai Uchiha was the undisputed protagonist.
Everyone chanted his name and cast the most fervent gazes upon him.
Mirai Uchiha, who always fought on the front lines and had saved countless Konoha ninjas, had become the hero in the eyes of every villager.
Mirai Uchiha didn't care much, but the members of the Uchiha clan following him puffed out their chests with pride.
A thrill of pride spread through the heart of every clan member.
This is how the ninja clan that founded Konoha Village should be treated!
Passing through the street at the village entrance, Fugaku Uchiha approached Mirai Uchiha: "An order from the Third Hokage. Come with me to report to Lord Hokage."
Mirai Uchiha shook his head: "I'm tired, I'm going to rest."
Seeing Mirai Uchiha turn to leave, Fugaku Uchiha gritted his teeth: "Do you really want to push the Uchiha clan into a pit of fire?"
"Do you think the Hokage's order is something you can disobey whenever you feel like it?"
Mirai Uchiha let out a mocking laugh and, turning around, said: "Fugaku, the one who is pushing the Uchiha clan into the pit of fire, step by step, is you."
"The Hokage cannot interfere with what I have to do."
"In the future, don't show up in front of me much, or I'll kill you."
Feeling the astonishing ocular power in Mirai Uchiha's eyes, Fugaku Uchiha couldn't help but take a few steps back.
He had no doubt about Mirai Uchiha's words.
This guy was a lawless rebel.
If he kept getting entangled, it was very likely he would actually kill him!
"By the way, remember to repeat what I just said to Hiruzen Sarutobi word for word, and then watch closely what expression the object of your adulation makes."
"Hahahahaha..."
————
Inside the clan district.
Shisui Uchiha looked at Mirai Uchiha with excitement, his eyes full of admiration: "Lord Mirai, you've worked hard all this time."
He had long since heard of Mirai Uchiha's exploits on the front lines, so as soon as he returned, he came to visit.
Lord Mirai Uchiha had truly achieved it.
Now, the image of the Uchiha clan in the eyes of the villagers was completely different from before.
Even Uchiha children like him were often approached by people to talk.
The character of the Uchiha clan members was also gradually being understood by the villagers.
Many villagers, when speaking, showed great curiosity about the Uchiha clan.
Even the Hyūga ninja from the academy, who often proclaimed he would defeat him to prove that the Hyūga clan's Byakugan was superior to the Uchiha clan's Sharingan, now began to avoid him.
This, before, was simply unthinkable.
Seeing Shisui Uchiha's expression, Mirai Uchiha asked with a smile: "Shisui, what have you learned?"
Shisui Uchiha said immediately: "Power is the root that guarantees everything."
"Oh?" Mirai Uchiha showed a hint of interest. "Tell me."
Shisui Uchiha organized his words and then said: "No matter what goal one wants to achieve, power is indispensable."
"I used to think that just by expressing my good intentions, I could eliminate the misunderstandings between people, but now I understand how naive that idea was."
"As long as our Uchiha clan possesses a sufficiently strong power, the conflict between the village and the Uchiha clan will resolve itself."
Hearing Shisui Uchiha's words, Mirai Uchiha nodded with satisfaction: "Shisui, I'm glad you've reached this conclusion, but it's still not enough."
"Remember..."
"Power can bring war to humanity, but it can also bring peace."
"The kindness of the weak is ignored, but the charity of the strong can often make people feel grateful to the point of tears."
"The same goes for the problem between the village and the Uchiha clan."
"As long as we transform 'the Uchiha clan of Konoha Village' into 'the Konoha Village of the Uchiha clan,' there will no longer be villagers who see us with hostility."
As soon as Mirai Uchiha finished speaking, Shisui Uchiha continued naturally: "At that moment, anyone who is hostile to our Uchiha clan will be an enemy of the village!"
"And to enemies..."
"Enemies just need to be killed without mercy!"
Seeing Shisui Uchiha leaning more and more towards the hawks' faction, Mirai Uchiha couldn't help but feel a bit of emotion: "Shisui, it's been a while since we've seen each other, you've really changed a lot."
Hearing that, Shisui Uchiha said as if it were the most natural thing in the world: "Everything is for the clan and for the village."
Shisui Uchiha admired Mirai Uchiha more and more for having been able to find such a new path.
Before, he himself had become too obsessed.
Since the village was destined not to accept the Uchiha, no matter how hard he tried, it would be useless.
But, on the other hand, if they turned the village into the village of the Uchiha clan, wouldn't everything be solved?
After all... all the members of the Uchiha clan deeply loved the Konoha Village they had helped to found. Even if the Uchiha clan took the lead, it wouldn't happen that the clan couldn't accept the village.
Of course, to achieve such a goal, it was necessary to have sufficient power.
And Lord Mirai Uchiha, precisely, was a warrior who possessed that power.
The conversation went on late into the night. As soon as Shisui Uchiha left, Tekka Uchiha's voice sounded from outside: "Lord Mirai, the clan leader requests your presence!"
Mirai Uchiha came out of his room and, looking at Tekka Uchiha, asked: "Did he say what it's about?"
Tekka Uchiha lowered his voice and whispered: "It seems the clan leader can't hold on any longer."
Hearing that, Mirai Uchiha nodded: "Understood, lead the way."
"Yes, sir!"
Following Tekka Uchiha, they arrived at Tajima Uchiha's room. Many of the Uchiha clan's warriors had already gathered inside.
Apart from Fugaku Uchiha, Yashiro Uchiha, Inabi Uchiha, Yakumi Uchiha, and others, there were also some elders, all standing by the bed.
Tajima Uchiha, for his part, was sitting weakly on the edge of the bed.
Seeing Mirai Uchiha enter, a smile appeared on Tajima Uchiha's face, and he said weakly: "Mirai, calling you at this time of night, I hope I haven't disturbed your rest?"
"Leader Tajima, you..."
Mirai Uchiha frowned. Compared to the last time they met, Tajima Uchiha's body was now incredibly thin.
He barely had any spirit, and it seemed his end was near.
"Ah... I was originally planning to wait until tomorrow to give you my last words, but my body can't hold on anymore."
"Mirai, you are the hope of our Uchiha clan. It was you who greatly improved the relationship between the clan and the village, and at such a young age, you already possess the Mangekyō Sharingan. Your future is limitless."
"But if you use the Mangekyō Sharingan for too long, you will lose your sight from the exhaustion of your ocular power."
"You must be careful about that."
"From now on, the Uchiha clan is in your hands and Fugaku's."
"Originally, my father gave me the name Tajima in the hope that I would raise an heir as exceptional as Madara Uchiha. Back then, our Uchiha clan failed him."
"A pity that things didn't turn out as expected. Fugaku's character is a bit indecisive."
"But luckily we have you. Perhaps you are the key to changing the village and the Uchiha clan..."
Tajima Uchiha spoke a lot at once and, making an effort, glanced at those present: "I now appoint Fugaku Uchiha as leader of the Uchiha clan, and Mirai Uchiha as captain of the Konoha Police Force."
"Anyone in favor, anyone against?"
Seeing that no one objected, Tajima Uchiha coughed violently a couple of times: "Then, it's settled."
With that said, he took one last look at Fugaku Uchiha: "Fugaku, don't be so stubborn. This is your father's last piece of advice..."
