The two brothers looked in terror at the somewhat thin figure in front of them, their proud hearts shaken to the core.
"Is that the man who, after the Second Hokage's death, single-handedly earned the title of 'Hero of the Ninja World' in the First Great Ninja War?"
"He's terrifying!"
Before, they thought the title of 'Hero of the Ninja World' was just the Third Hokage boasting. In reality, they believed that the Third Hokage's strength was insignificant in front of their Uchiha clan's three-tomoe Sharingan.
But they never expected that even though his body was declining, the Third Hokage could still exert such terrifying pressure with just his naturally emanating chakra. The Uchiha brothers had never experienced anything like it.
However, the proud Uchiha belief supported the two brothers.
Facing this soul-stirring pressure, the two brothers still tried their best to raise their heads and look directly at the Third Hokage in front of them.
The brothers' proud defiance filled the Third Hokage with a sense of humiliation. He cursed them furiously in his heart, but remained calm on the surface, saying, "Step aside."
He didn't have time to waste here with these two wicked Uchiha brats. The technique of immortality was the most important thing he wanted to understand right now.
But Uchiha Ace, however, was a bit stubborn and decided to push his luck. He said, "Hokage-sama, that sack..."
Boom!
The Third Hokage, already feeling humiliated, couldn't hold back anymore. His aura exploded outwards.
Why?
Why did these two little Uchiha brats dare to disobey him, the Hokage of Konoha, the leader of the five great ninja villages?
Why?
The Third Hokage's killing intent was like a tangible force, instantly enveloping the two Uchiha brothers.
In an instant, everyone's breath caught, feeling as if they were facing a tailed beast. Their bodies trembled uncontrollably out of fear.
The two Uchiha brothers, especially, were instantly blank in the mind, their bodies completely losing their ability to resist.
This was the authority of a top-tier powerhouse.
Just as the Uchiha brothers felt like they were about to die,
This terrifying killing intent came and went quickly.
The Third Hokage instantly regained his composure.
Why did these two Uchiha brats dare to disrespect him?
It was because the Uchiha clan possessed a powerful force that he feared.
Even though he was the Hokage of Konoha, he couldn't make the first move against the Uchiha, lest he give them an excuse.
The Third Hokage suppressed his anger and calmly asked in a measured tone, "Are you Uchiha clan trying to attack me, the Hokage?"
He couldn't make the first move against the Uchiha clan.
But if the Uchiha clan attacked him, that would be a different story.
As soon as the Third Hokage finished speaking, the Anbu guard squad protecting him no longer hid, instantly appearing around the two Uchiha brothers, surrounding them.
In an instant, the atmosphere on the scene became silent.
An even more oppressive and terrifying aura enveloped the surroundings.
Gulp!
Even the stubborn and reckless Uchiha Ace couldn't help but feel a tightness in his throat, taking a deep breath, and not daring to speak again.
The proud Uchiha Luffy was also terrified by the Third Hokage's accusation. He hurriedly flattered, "No, no, we are the Uchiha clan who protect Konoha. How could we possibly disrespect you, Hokage-sama?"
Although their Uchiha clan wished the Third Hokage would die immediately, they absolutely couldn't be the ones to do it. Even testing him was not allowed.
Everyone knew what it meant to attack the leader of a village, and the two Uchiha brothers were well aware of it.
It meant rebellion, it meant betrayal of the village.
They didn't want to be labeled as rogue ninjas who attacked the Hokage.
Especially since the Third Hokage said that the Uchiha clan was trying to attack him, they couldn't take responsibility for that.
Their Uchiha clan wanted to be the boss of Konoha, not to stand on the opposite side of Konoha.
Facing Uchiha Luffy's explanation, the Third Hokage's anger almost flared up again.
Damn wicked Uchiha, what a load of crap, protecting Konoha?
If you're the clan that protects Konoha, then what am I, the Hokage?
A decoration?
The Third Hokage was burning with anger, but he remained calm on the surface. He took a step forward, he wanted to see if these two Uchiha brats dared to stop him, the Hokage.
Of course they wouldn't dare!
This time, the two Uchiha brothers respectfully stepped aside, not daring to say another word, watching as the Third Hokage and the Anbu ninjas left.
Uchiha Luffy looked at the sack on Chong's shoulder, a thoughtful expression in his eyes.
The Anbu's mission tonight wasn't simple!
Thinking this, he patted his younger brother, Uchiha Ace, on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, we'll go back and report tonight's situation to the Elder."
It was already late at night, the Anbu was dispatched, and they only secretly took away a person who seemed to be a child, which was very strange.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have stopped them.
What was even stranger was that the Third Hokage and his guard squad were secretly following them. If they hadn't stopped them, the Third Hokage wouldn't have stepped forward until the battle was about to break out.
The person in that sack must be someone important, worth the Third Hokage's personal involvement.
Perhaps... this could be an opportunity to overthrow the Third Hokage!
As Uchiha Luffy's thoughts raced,
On the way back to the Anbu headquarters, the Third Hokage was also thinking about how to deal with the Uchiha clan.
After the Second Hokage's death, the Third Hokage, who inherited the Second Hokage's will, also inherited the Second Hokage's policy towards the Uchiha clan.
But now, the Third Hokage was starting to doubt the Second Hokage's plan to eliminate the Uchiha clan.
The Second Hokage's plan had two main points.
First, to prevent the Uchiha clan from having the opportunity to go to war as much as possible.
To achieve this, the Second Hokage established the Konoha Police Force, which only the Uchiha clan could join. The purpose was to keep this lion, the Uchiha clan, firmly caged in Konoha, allowing them to gradually lose their fighting abilities.
To achieve this goal, and to make the Uchiha clan ninjas willing to join the police force, the Second Hokage granted the police force great authority.
Almost everything that happened in Konoha, from petty squabbles to spy infiltrations, the police force had the right to monitor, enforce the law, and make arrests. They were like the most powerful secret police in the Ming Dynasty.
So, even though he felt humiliated tonight, the Third Hokage didn't make a move against the two Uchiha brats.
Because, routine inspections were indeed a right granted to them by the Second Hokage.
But... how should I put it?
No ruler can tolerate such humiliation.
The Third Hokage was no exception.
He was thinking about how to weaken the Uchiha clan's power as much as possible.
As two ninja clans that had been enemies since the Warring States Period,
The Senju and the Uchiha both knew each other's strengths very well.
Especially under the research of the Second Hokage, Tobirama, the master inventor of the first forbidden techniques in the ninja world, the secrets of the Uchiha clan's power were revealed.
The Uchiha clan's Sharingan, from the first tomoe to the three tomoe, and finally the terrifying Mangekyo Sharingan, all require intense emotional stimulation.
And the battlefield is the easiest place to gain and lose intense emotions.
On the battlefield, the lives of teammates and comrades are intertwined, making it easier to develop strong and pure bonds.
Similarly, in the life-or-death battles on the battlefield, comrades are also most likely to die.
When a comrade dies, the strong and pure bond that arises from this will bring intense emotional stimulation to the Uchiha clan.
This intense emotional stimulation will stimulate the Uchiha clan members' brains to produce a special chakra.
This special chakra will stimulate the eyes, causing those Uchiha who haven't awakened the Sharingan to awaken it.
And for those who have awakened the Sharingan, their Sharingan will evolve further.
From one tomoe to two tomoe, from two tomoe to three tomoe, from three tomoe to Mangekyo Sharingan.
Once they reach the Mangekyo Sharingan, it means that a powerful Uchiha has been born, far surpassing the average Jonin.
Even if the Mangekyo Sharingan ability is powerful enough to be overpowered, it's not impossible to achieve the level of a Kage, surpassing even Jonin.
