When Uchiha Yuzuru finished speaking, the secret room fell silent.

Facing this guy who possessed the Mangekyo Sharingan and killed without hesitation, even the unruly Uchiha clansmen wouldn't be foolish enough to provoke him.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Uchiha Yuzuru nodded in satisfaction.

If possible, he didn't want to resort to such extreme measures.

But for the plan to proceed smoothly, this was the fastest and most effective method.

After organizing his thoughts, Uchiha Yuzuru slowly said, "Back then, our Uchiha Clan and the Senju Clan joined forces to establish Konoha."

"But after all these years, our Uchiha Clan has consistently been excluded from the core power structure, and the Senju Clan has all but vanished."

"Ever since Senju Tobirama became Hokage, we have constantly been suspected and guarded against."

"After Hiruzen Sarutobi took office, the Uchiha Clan was even more trampled underfoot by the Anbu, completely losing its former prestige."

"The Military Police Force, independent autonomy... everything was just a carefully designed trap."

Uchiha Yuzuru repeated to everyone what he had said to Uchiha Taro and Uchiha Fugaku that day.

After listening to Uchiha Yuzuru's analysis, Uchiha Rika and the others all showed expressions of sudden realization.

They were filled with immense anger, and their crimson Sharingan eyes began to emit terrifying ocular power.

It turned out that the Konoha higher-ups not only never considered them their own, but were constantly thinking of ways to harm them.

"Damn bastards, I'm only now realizing their true colors!"

"Yuzuru, what should we do? Should we launch a coup immediately?"

"If we strike suddenly now, we'll surely catch them off guard!"

Looking at the agitated crowd, Uchiha Yuzuru shook his head: "Our strength is not yet enough to contend with Hiruzen Sarutobi; launching a coup would only lead to heavy casualties for our Uchiha Clan."

Uchiha Taro immediately said, "It's better than waiting for death. Even if we die, we must bite off a piece of flesh from them!"

"That's right, our Uchiha Clan has no cowards."

"Yuzuru, you now possess the Mangekyo Sharingan. Assassinating the Hokage shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Looking at their fierce, wolf-like eyes, Uchiha Yuzuru's heart skipped a beat.

Oh no, I've become the conservative one!

Uchiha Yuzuru could only state his plan first: "Don't worry, everyone, I have no intention of waiting for death. I plan to lead the Uchiha Clan out of Konoha."

"What?!"

Uchiha Taro, Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Rika, and the others all widened their eyes in shock.

"Yuzuru, you must be joking. Even if some of us could leave the Village under the Anbu's surveillance, what about the elders, children, and most of the ordinary clansmen?"

"Abandoning our clansmen to escape alone—we absolutely cannot do such a thing!"

Facing everyone's doubts, Uchiha Yuzuru said calmly, "You should have noticed just now, my Mangekyo Sharingan can perform spatial transfer on objects."

"I have a way to transfer all clansmen out of the Land of Fire simultaneously!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes showed expressions of disbelief.

It was known that there were thousands of Uchiha clansmen in total now, and wanting to accomplish such a feat sounded highly improbable.

Uchiha Taro frowned and said, "Yuzuru, even if you could truly accomplish such a thing, the ocular power consumed would be terrifying, wouldn't it?"

"According to the clan's records, after the ocular power of the Mangekyo Sharingan is depleted, it leads to blindness!"

"Don't worry, I have my own measure for this."

He had the Transfer Scroll gifted by the System, so he naturally didn't need to worry about the issue of ocular power consumption.

After speaking, Uchiha Yuzuru spoke again: "Before the clan's relocation, everyone should package all of the clan's assets, Ninjutsu scrolls, supplies, and so on using Seal scrolls. Don't leave Hiruzen Sarutobi and them even a single thread."

"I'm really looking forward to seeing what wonderful expressions they'll have when they wake up and find that our entire Uchiha Clan has vanished."

Upon hearing Uchiha Yuzuru's words, Uchiha Rika and the others also showed wicked smiles.

That scene, just thinking about it, was very interesting.

After discussing the next course of action in detail, everyone dispersed.

Upon returning home, Uchiha Yuzuru left a Shadow Clone, while his true body activated Kamui and left Konoha.

"What?!"

"Two Anbu members monitoring the Uchiha Clan have lost contact?!"

Upon hearing Sakumo Hatake's report, Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression was somewhat grim: "Sakumo, have you found any clues?"

Sakumo Hatake shook his head: "None. Aside from the bloodstains in the room, the perpetrator left no other clues."

"..."

A name suddenly appeared in Hiruzen Sarutobi's mind—

Uchiha Yuzuru!

That day, when Uzumaki Kushina was kidnapped, he had also silently passed through the Village's barrier without anyone noticing.

Could it be him?

Hiruzen Sarutobi wasn't entirely sure.

But that didn't stop him from identifying Uchiha Yuzuru as the murderer of the Anbu.

As long as there was even a shred of possibility, he absolutely couldn't let it go.

Thinking of this, Hiruzen Sarutobi directly said, "Sakumo, keep a close eye on Uchiha Yuzuru. The moment you get a chance, kill him immediately."

"Remember, no one must find out."

There was currently no evidence to prove that Uchiha Yuzuru was the murderer of the Anbu. If his order for Sakumo Hatake to assassinate Uchiha Yuzuru was exposed, the Uchiha Clan would certainly not let it rest.

Therefore, this matter had to be done silently.

"I understand."

Sakumo Hatake showed no dissent, and his figure flashed, disappearing from sight.

Hiruzen Sarutobi then looked at Uchiha Yuzuru's file on the desk, finally picking up a pen and drawing a large "X" over his photograph.

He believed that with Sakumo Hatake's strength, as long as Uchiha Yuzuru dared to be alone, he would be killed immediately!

Late at night.

Land of Rice Fields.

Daimyo's manor.

The Daimyo of the Land of Rice Fields, who had just finished bathing with the assistance of his maids, walked into his room alone.

He stretched lazily, and luxurious silk robes slipped from his short, stout body.

The next second, his eyes suddenly widened.

"You, who are you?"

"A-a-an assassin!"

A red light flashed, and the voice abruptly ceased.

Uchiha Yuzuru looked at the Daimyo of the Land of Rice Fields, who was already under Genjutsu control, then turned and left the room.

As one of the few countries without a Ninja Village, the Land of Rice Fields was the perfect temporary base for the Uchiha Clan.

"By my reckoning, it should be about time."

"I've been out for so long, it's time to go back."

After Uchiha Yuzuru set the coordinates, with a thought, his body twisted with space and vanished.
