Chapter 28 The Oath of Hokage Rock

When Danzo Shimura said this, he realized something was wrong and sat down. However, his face was still gloomy, and it was obvious that the content of his words was definitely not impulsive.

"Uchiha is frivolous and cannot influence Konoha?"

It’s not fun to say this, Tuan Bao.

The leaders of the major ninja clans in the periphery were stunned for a moment, and then they immediately reacted, with unspeakable expressions on their faces.

Although everyone knows and tacitly follows the policy of suppressing Uchiha, it is okay to say this in private. If you say it in front of others, are you not taking the Uchiha clan seriously? ?

And this excessive reaction...why does it feel like Danzo's cheese has been touched?
  Is it possible that the root of Konoha still wants to sprout?

On the other side, Uchiha Homura also looked gloomy when he saw Danzo's reaction.

He also didn't expect Danzo's reaction to be so great after he just proposed that the next Hokage should be an Uchiha clansman. Although he was aware of the prejudice against Uchiha in the village, he did not expect that the prejudice would be so serious now.

What does "Uchiha is frivolous and cannot influence Konoha"? How could he, Uchiha, be so frivolous?
  But you, Danzo Shimura, are the real frivolous one, right? Are you so excited that you want to be Hokage?
  The Uchiha tribesmen on the side were also restless after hearing this, and immediately announced that they wanted to show Danzo a good look.

"Danzo, shut up! If you talk again, you will go back to your roots and be grounded for three months!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen also didn't expect that his old teammate would drop out of the team at this time. Can he say this on this occasion? So after glaring at him, he immediately reconciled, thinking about how to resolve Uchiha's demands.

"The position of Hokage... Homura also knows that the position of Hokage is jointly elected by everyone. How can I guarantee it to you at this time? Then don't I become a public and private grant? But the Uchiha clan If you have this intention, you should disband and explain to everyone that this is a misunderstanding! Only by actively working for the group can you win everyone's respect, right?"

However, Uchiha Homura didn't agree with him at all, just one sentence.

Agree or reject?
  "That's all Uchiha's demands are. If you agree, Uchiha will retreat and continue to serve the village with peace of mind as usual; and if you refuse..." Uchiha Homura hesitated for a moment according to the instructions of the master of the Kingdom of Water. Then I made up my mind.

"If you refuse, it means that Konoha has never regarded the Uchiha clan as one of its own. Then the Uchiha clan will return to the mountains and forests and find a place to build a village on its own. The Uzumaki clan can even build an whirlpool. Village, of course I, the Uchiha clan, can do it too."

Hearing these words, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes instantly turned cold. They would never allow Uchiha to leave the village!
  Meat can rot in the pot if you don’t eat it, but it must not come out of the pot!
  After going out, what if Uchiha goes against Konoha? As their own people, they know the power of Uchiha Sharingan very well, it is really powerful!

Moreover, now that Uchiha is gone, who will they fool in the future?

Without the common goal of Uchiha, the ninjas below would be distracted, have their own little ideas, and wouldn't be as supportive of his work as before!
  No, absolutely not!
  At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally agreed with his teacher. This Uchiha is indeed an evil clan!
  Tell me, you are being squeezed by the village, wouldn't you like to stay in the police force for the rest of your life? Why do you have to cause trouble for the village? Can't you understand the difficulties of the village?
  But on the surface, they had no reason to object to Uchiha's departure. After all, you are suppressing others and giving them no hope, but you are also preventing them from leaving. Unless you use force directly, what else you do is against the rules, right?
  Sarutobi Hiruzen fell into thought.

Danzo Shimura opened his mouth and seemed to want to say something. But after being glared at by Sarutobi Hiruzen, he also closed his mouth and said nothing.

After Uchiha Homura saw this scene, he felt a little panicked. Looking at the expressions of these two people... they couldn't really break up, right?
  He just said that it was impossible to leave, and even if Uchiha did leave, he would have to leave in glory, and he would not be driven out of Konoha like a lost dog!

"What are you all doing here? Let's go, let's go!"

Just when the three parties fell into silence, and they were riding a tiger, an old voice came over.

I saw an energetic old woman walking over. The old woman's originally gorgeous red hair was now dull. She had buns on both sides of her hair. The most eye-catching thing was the diamond-shaped mark on her forehead.

The person who came was none other than the wife of the ninja god Senju Hashirama, Uchiha Madara's lifelong enemy, and the widow Uzumaki Mito.

"Mito-sama!"

Everyone present, including the heads of the various ninja clans, the Uchiha clan, as well as Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura, all bowed their heads and greeted the old man respectfully.

Uzumaki Mito can gain such great respect not only because of her status as Senju Hashirama's wife. As a perfect Jinchuuriki of the Nine-Tails, she can definitely be regarded as the peak of Konoha's current combat power. She can be said to be Konoha's Dinghai Shenzhen.

"It's rare for everyone to be so happy. What are you gathering here to talk about?" Uzumaki Mito smiled and nodded.

Uchiha Homura hesitated for a moment and told everything that had happened just now, including the rumors in the village recently. If there is anyone who has the ability, status, and qualifications to solve this matter now, it must be Uzumaki Mito.

"I see... Hiruzen, you are a far worse Hokage than Tobirama!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen bowed his head and was being scolded. Of course he knew that Uzumaki Mito's words were not just superficial, but the deeper meaning was - during the Second Hokage's time, people hated the Uchiha clan so much, but this didn't happen. Why? Will this happen to you? Let it go if something like this happens, but now you can't solve it yourself but you want me to wipe your ass?

Uzumaki Mito looked at Danzo Shimura who was sitting silently, and sighed again in his heart. But now that the matter has come to this, she can only do her best to make amends.

"Hiruzhan was in a special situation at that time, and as Hiruzen said, the position of Hokage cannot be agreed to so easily. What's more, if we agree to it so easily, you can't believe it, right?"

Mito Uzumaki raised his hand to interrupt Uchiha Homura's speech and continued: "Of course, since the matter has reached this level, the Uchiha clan must be given an explanation. First of all, the village needs to rectify Uchiha Homura's name immediately. The title of hero is solemnly awarded, and the sacrifice of the Uchiha clan is properly recognized in the Konoha Chronicles; secondly, from now on, Konoha departments are not allowed to impose additional restrictions on the Uchiha clan and allow them to serve in the guard force. Finally, Hiruzen, how about you pick a child from the Uchiha clan to be your disciple, and then promise to promote him as much as possible when you abdicate?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a while and finally accepted the suggestion.

The first one is simple, it's just reputation. Besides, as long as the current views of the ninja clans on Uchiha remain unchanged, it doesn't matter how good their reputation is in books. The second one doesn't matter either. At most, some marginal positions will be arranged. Just give it to the Uchiha clan. At that time, they will only do some trivial and repetitive work. With their temperament, they may be angry. As for the third point... it is acceptable. Anyway, his recommendation does not mean that the other ninjas recognize him. He has the ability. Can Uchiha be recognized by other ninja clan? Can a Hokage who is not recognized by the Jonin Council be called Hokage?
  Of course, the ninja clan leaders who were present at these conditions also understood the implications, so they all silently acquiesced to the matter.

After hearing this, Uchiha Homura nodded reluctantly. Obviously, he thought about this.

Although he was very dissatisfied with the fact that he had only received such frivolous promises by using the strength of his entire clan and cooperating with the right time, place and people, he could only accept this choice.

Unless he really wants to lead his tribe to leave Konoha, what else can he do?

If the quarrel continues, will Mito Uzumaki really be considered a kind old man?

"After all, this is a big step towards the goal. As long as a true genius appears in the family, he will surely be able to lead his people to realize their wishes, right?"

Uchiha Homura thought of the child named Uchiha Fugaku in the clan. He was a good prospect?

"Since you agree, let's let this matter go. Uchiha Homura, hurry up and take all the clan members back!" Uzumaki Mito nodded with satisfaction.

"Wait a minute!"

But at this time, Uchiha Homura's protruding movement made Sarutobi Hiruzen feel nervous again.

"Sarutobi, do you dare to swear on the Hokage Rock and swear that you will definitely implement everything you just promised?"

Although the oath of a ninja is like fart, as Hokage, unless Sarutobi Hiruzen is really completely shameless, it is really unlikely that the oath sworn by the Hokage Rock will not be implemented in the end.

This is what Uchiha Homura is betting on.

However, it is obvious that he is a political idiot just like Uchiha Madara.

Do politicians have any credibility?

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked silently at the statue of his teacher Senju Tobirama under the sunset, imagining what his teacher would make after hearing these words.

Soon, he knew the answer.

I saw Sarutobi Hiruzen pointing at the majestic Hokage Rock under his feet and the endlessly flowing river in the distance, repeating what he just said word for word in front of the many ninja clan leaders, Uzumaki Mito and Uchiha clan members present.

"I swear... to make the river like a belt, the shadows of the rocks as sharp as a river, the family with eternal peace, and the descendants of the Miao people with love."
