Chapter 5

"Lord Patriarch, Uchiha Shido kept the money, but he didn't mean to let go of Lord fugaku at all."

Jōnin, who was kicked out by Shido before, went back and reported the situation to Uchiha Yama.

"Damn, Uchiha Shido, do you really think I can't deal with you?"

Uchiha Yama smashed the table with a furious palm, and then he couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood, and the wound on his body that was cut by Shido's Ryūjin Jakka also burst open.

"Lord Patriarch, you can't use force, or your injury will worsen again."

A medical ninja next to him warned Uchiha Yama cautiously.

"Is there any chance of my injury being healed?"

Uchiha Yama asked the medical ninja.

The medical ninja had a tangled look on his face, and finally chose to tell the truth.

"Lord Patriarch, your injury has no chance of being cured. Before, you could live at least half a year with your injury, but now it's difficult to survive for a month."

He felt like a month was talking too much, and Uchiha Yama was in a bad situation right now.

It's not uncommon for a ninja like Uchiha Yama to have old injuries from battle and now it was added with new injuries it's not surprising that he'll die soon, the ninja profession itself have a high death rate.

For example, the average age of a ninja during the Sengoku period (it's the timeline before five ninja village was created and it's very chaotic) was only about thirty years old.

Because of the injuries left in their youth, the injuries will erupt when they get old. Many ninjas died either at the hands of others or because of injuries and illnesses. There are really not many ninjas who died in good health.

"If Tsunade Hime is here, it should be able to help the patriarch live a little longer."

"You leave first."

Uchiha Yama waved at the medical ninja.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and the medical ninja quickly left here.

"Lord Patriarch, Uchiha Shido is too arrogant and we should teach him a lesson."

Thinking of being kicked out, a look of resentment appeared on Uchiha Sato's (the ninja who delivered money to shido) face.

"Teach him a lesson? Are you going?"

Uchiha Yama looked at him with knife-like eyes, and Uchiha Sato immediately lowered his head in fright.

"Ugh!"

With a sigh, Uchiha Yama was a little disappointed, and his son Uchiha Fugaku was not up to his expectations. If his strength could suppress Uchiha Shido, then Uchiha Shido would not have so many supporters.

Although he wished that Uchiha Shido died, he had to admit that the boy's methods were indeed not weak, and he was able to gain the support of half of the clan.

It is precisely because there are so many people who support Uchiha Shido that Uchiha Yama doesn't want to touch him, so he can only make trouble upon Uchiha Shido.

"You go and contact Uchiha gin, Uchiha Sen and Uchiha Shin so they come back. It won't be long before the Uchiha family is going to change."

All three are Elite Jōnin-level combat powers, and all are Elite Jōnin loyal to him and Fugaku.

"Yes, the patriarch."

The Uchiha Sato left immediately to find a way to contact the three Elite Jōnins on the mission.

After the Uchiha Sato left, Uchiha Yama summoned the three elders of the family for an intra-family meeting.

In fact, every move of Uchiha Yama's side is also under the surveillance of Shido.

"Call the elders of the family, do you want to attack me?"

Shido showed a hint of disdain.

Shido didn't care even if the old guys came out together, he didn't like those old guys.

Maybe those old guys were very powerful when they were young, but now they are only fighting for power and profit. Their existence is not only useless, but shackles the development of the Uchiha family.

"If there is not enough interest, those old guys may not help Uchiha Yama."

He is also one of the high-ranking members of the Uchiha family, and he also understands the thought process of those elders. Even if Uchiha Yama is the patriarch, don't ask them to help for free.

What's more, Uchiha Yama, the patriarch's control over the Uchiha family has long since died.

As the patriarch, he did nothing, which caused the Uchiha family to go downhill, and the clan people had long been dissatisfied with him as the patriarch.

Konoha Village Hokage building, Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen with a pipe took a puff.

Just now, Anbu's ninjas have reported what happened to the Uchiha family to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Continue to monitor Uchiha's situation, it's better not to expose it."

Sarutobi Hiruzen gave an order to the Anbu ninja hiding in the dark.

Sarutobi Hiruzen does not intend to intervene in Uchiha's internal affairs. Uchiha's infighting is a favorite thing for all senior officials of Konoha.

What's more, even if he wanted to intervene, he couldn't intervene.

In general, family affairs are handled within the family by themselves. Unless there is an act that threatens the village, he cannot intervene at all.

"Uchiha Yama is dying, who will inherit the patriarch's position?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes flickered.

In all fairness, Sarutobi Hiruzen still wants to see Uchiha Fugaku become the patriarch, and the reason is simple.

Potentially, Uchiha Shido's potential is much greater than Uchiha Fugaku, and it is very likely to break through to Kage-level in the future, and it is even possible to open the legendary Mangekyō Sharingan.

Uchiha Shido becoming the patriarch is a good thing for Uchiha, but it is too much a threat to Konoha Village.

Moreover, according to Sarutobi Hiruzen's investigation, Uchiha Shido's character is very strong. If he becomes the patriarch of the Uchiha family, there will be more conflicts between Konoha Village and Uchiha in the future.

Sarutobi Hiruzen admits that he hates the Uchiha family, but Konoha really can't lose the Uchiha family right now.

It has been many years since the end of the Second Ninja War. After these years of cultivation, the ninja clan in the major ninja villages have begun to rise again.

Although the Third Ninja World War will not break out in a short period of time, what if it suddenly breaks out?

If the Third Ninja War breaks out, Uchiha is the best thug.

Five days passed in the blink of an eye, Uchiha Shido thought that Uchiha Yama would be looking for trouble, but he didn't expect that there was no movement at all, and Uchiha Yama was calm.

And today, Uchiha Shido got a news that Uchiha Yama has died.

Although Shido guessed that he would not live for a week based on his injuries, he did not expect to die in five days.

Shido didn't expect it, and Uchiha Yama himself didn't expect him to die so quickly. Originally, he planned to wait for Shido to relax his vigilance and let someone rescue Uchiha Fugaku first.

Before inviting those elders, Uchiha Yama did not persuade them to help. Because Uchiha Fugaku was in Shido's hands, Uchiha Yama didn't dare to do anything for the time being, so he didn't bother Shido.

He originally planned to wait for Shido to relax his vigilance and rescue Uchiha Fugaku, then turn his face with Shido completely, and then try his best to help Uchiha Fugaku become the patriarch before he died.

Who would have thought that before his plan even started, he would be unable to hold on and died directly.
