Chapter 78: The World is a Playground

With a swish, Dan deactivated his Sharingan, glancing left and right.

The Root member to his left had a purple arm after removing his glove, likely indicating a potent poison.

The Root member on his right held a thick, black chain, etched with bright red sealing jutsu.

And there was a Root member who seemed to be from the Yamanaka clan, quickly forming hand signs and aiming at Dan, intending to release a genjutsu to disrupt his mind.

It seemed that after losing a few members last time, Root had realized that they couldn't confront Dan head-on. They had to resort to underhanded tactics.

"Wait!"

Seeing this, Fugaku shouted again, decisively activating his Mangekyou Sharingan.

He shielded Dan behind him, his crimson Mangekyou releasing intense ocular power fluctuations, vowing that no matter what, he wouldn't let his brother-in-law be taken away by Root today.

But the next second, Fugaku heard Dan utter two words from behind him:

"Indra's arrow!"

Dan's voice, cold and ruthless, echoed throughout the conference room.

Although he said " Indra's arrow," it was actually Za Warudo.

With a hum the power of time stop enveloped the entire conference room, freezing everyone's actions and facial expressions.

The Stand "The World" appeared behind Dan once again, like a divine spirit descending.

Then.

"Muda, Muda, Muda, Muda, Muda!"

Both Dan's body and his Stand attacked, each rushing towards several Root members, their violent fists raining down on their enemies like a downpour.

Five seconds passed.

He returned to his original position and withdrew his Stand.

Time resumed its flow.

When the words "Indra's arrow" were still echoing in the ears of everyone in the conference room, leaving them puzzled, a shocking scene occurred.

Thud, thud, thud, thud.

With several abrupt dull sounds, the Root ninjas around Dan, as if hit by some great force, were all sent flying.

One crashed through the conference room window with a "crack," flying out like a corpse;

Two flew towards the crowd, causing everyone to dodge in a hurry, knocking over more than a dozen ninjas along the way, causing chaos;

Two others respectively smashed the waiting room's door and wall, their bodies falling into the corridor outside.

And the last one.

He flew straight over the conference table, heading straight for Danzo at the speed of a cannonball.

Huh?

Danzo was taken aback, just about to dodge, when he was hit head-on by the Root ninja flying towards him, even his cane flew out of his hand.

Boom.

Danzo flew back, creating a large hole in the wall, and fell directly outside the Hokage building, falling three floors with a thud.

"Lord Danzo!"

Several people exclaimed, rushing to rescue him.

The Third Hokage turned his head, took a look at the large hole in the wall, and took a deep breath.

Everyone present was as if they had seen a ghost, extremely terrified.

They had indeed all heard about Dan, knew that he had defeated Shisui, and had become the top Uchiha.

Everyone had heard about Dan's abilities.

But after seeing it with their own eyes, they finally understood how terrifying Uchiha Dan was.

First, it was the super strength of the Senju clan, then a Uchiha's secretive technique, Indra's arrow.

The power Dan displayed was not just strong, it was terrifyingly strong, reminding people of the legendary Uchiha Madara.

For a moment.

Everyone retreated in unison, not daring to approach within five meters of Dan.

Especially Dōtō Akimichi, who had previously wanted to compete with Dan for a seat, was wiping sweat from his forehead, feeling lucky to have dodged a bullet.

"Uchiha Dan!" At this point the Third Hokage suddenly shouted, his normally kind and amiable image completely gone, replaced by a sharp gaze and a dignified demeanor.

The usually stoic Hokage was angry.

When the Hokage was angry, everyone bowed their heads, even Uchiha Fugaku was shocked, his palms sweating.

Only Dan as he looked at the Third Hokage with a cold face, their gazes meeting in the air, silent, did not bend.

At this moment, everyone held their breath.

Could it be that the Uchiha were about to wage war on the village? Was the scene of Madara causing havoc in Konoha years ago about to be reenacted?

If Dan was the second Uchiha Madara, was the Third Hokage the second Hashirama Senju?

No one knew.

Dan, truly didn't care.

All along.

He had no interest in reviving the Uchiha clan, nor did he have any motivation to kill the entire Konoha high command.

What Dan liked was just to have some fun.

Just as he told his brother-in-law Fugaku, apart from his life goal of training his muscles, his only hobby...

Was toying with people.

Rather than directly killing those he disliked, it was more interesting to toy with them like monkeys, watching them jump around performing.

Isn't it?

So Dan toyed with Itachi, toyed with Fugaku, toyed with Shisui, toyed with Obito, toyed with the entire Uchiha clan.

He also toyed with Danzo, toyed with Kakashi, even toyed with the Third Hokage in public, toyed with all the ninjas of Konoha.

This world.

In Dan's eyes, it was a giant playground.

As a transmigrator.

Dan had never fully integrated into the world of Naruto, even though everything here was so real, even though every person here was so vivid.

He had an arrogance and contempt for the natives of this world that went deep into his bones.

Perhaps.

This was why Dan was reborn as an Uchiha, after all, this clan was famous for its arrogance and pride.

And Dan's arrogance was above all others.

Thinking of this.

Dan slowly raised his left hand, pointing his index finger directly at the Third Hokage across the conference table in a Dio-like manner.

Although he had no intention of killing the Third Hokage, if the latter sought his own death, he couldn't blame him.

Yes, Konoha was full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers.

The people in this room mastered various secret techniques, forbidden techniques, and the most shameless sealing techniques. If Dan really had to fight against a hundred, he would likely be overturned.

However.

The distance between Dan and the Third Hokage was only a conference table away.

Less than ten meters.

Even though the latter was surrounded by heavy guards, as long as Dan activated Za Warudo, no one could stop him within the five seconds of time stop.

At this distance, he had a chance to directly take out the Third Hokage.

As long as the latter gave an order, he would act.

After that.

Dan would break through the encirclement at the next opportunity to activate time stop, then leave Konoha with his sister Mikoto.

So what if he became a rogue ninja? It's not a big deal.

As for what would happen to

the Uchiha clan in the future, whether they live or die, that was no longer Dan's concern.

"Dan, you..."

Seeing Dan actually pointing at the Third Hokage, Fugaku was shocked. Biting his teeth, he decided to take a risk.

Trust Dan.

As Dan's brother-in-law and as the head of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Fugaku made up his mind at this moment to stand by his brother-in-law's side and fight to the end.

So.

With a hiss, substantial blue chakra erupted from Fugaku's body, forming a semi-transparent giant skeletal hand behind him.

The conference room was not spacious enough to summon the complete second form of Susanoo, but this chakra hand alone was enough to make everyone around him serious and wary.

With a swish.

Fugaku, who had summoned Susanoo, crossed his arms and straightened his back, his Sharingan sweeping over everyone in the conference room, almost no one daring to meet his gaze.

After all, that was the Mangekyou Sharingan that could control the Nine-Tails.

One Uchiha Dan, one Uchiha Fugaku.

These two were enough to cause a huge uproar.

And there was Uchiha Shisui.

Unlike the others, he was greatly shocked and completely panicked.

"Hokage-sama!"

Shisui stood up, explaining to the Third Hokage with a worried face, "Dan only fought with Asuma because of me, please don't misunderstand him. Also, the suggestion to give up the Police Force was proposed by Dan, he worked hard to convince all the clan members..."

This statement slightly eased the tense atmosphere.

The Third Hokage's eyes flickered.

He tried to see through Dan's heart, but the latter's mind was like a fog, making it impossible to see what was inside.

Surrounded by all the elite ninjas of Konoha, yet still fearless, could he really be the second Uchiha Madara?

If that was the case, he, an old man, might not be able to beat him.

After some deliberation.

The Third Hokage suddenly relaxed his eyebrows and showed a kind smile:

"Since Shisui has said so, it seems that it was really a misunderstanding. Uchiha Dan, I wronged you, I hope you don't take it to heart."

Upon hearing this, Dan stared at the Third Hokage for a while, making the latter almost hairy, before he smiled and said, "Where is the Hokage-sama, hehehe."

"Hahaha." The Third Hokage also stroked his beard and laughed.

"Hehe, hahahaha..."

The two of them just laughed at each other, laughing for more than ten seconds, leaving everyone else with a puzzled face.

After the laughter.

"Cough, cough."

The Third Hokage cleared his throat, sat back in his chair, and resumed his solemn and serious expression.

Despite the big mess, he didn't forget the main purpose of today's meeting.

He looked around at everyone at the conference table, then announced loudly:

"Today's Clan Head meeting, the Uchiha clan has proposed to give up the Police Force, we will now vote on this proposal, those in favor please raise your hands."

The Third Hokage was originally hesitating, whether to completely take back the Police Force, considering the pros and cons.

Until Dan made this fuss, making him determined.

The Police Force, if it fell into the hands of someone like Uchiha Dan, would sooner or later cause unimaginable consequences.

Since the Uchiha didn't want to do it anymore, then fine.

As soon as the Third Hokage's words fell.

Hyuga Hiashi was the first to raise his hand, saying coldly, "The Hyuga clan agrees with this request."

Swish, swish, swish.

The Ino-Shika-Cho trio and other small and medium-sized ninja clans also followed suit, raising their hands one after another.

Of the more than twenty clan heads present, not one opposed.

Unanimously approved.

"Fugaku, do you have any objections?" Seeing this, the Third Hokage asked Fugaku.

Fugaku glanced at his brother-in-law, seeing that Dan had nothing to say, he also withdrew Susanoo, and replied to the Third Hokage:

"The Uchiha have no objections."

The Third Hokage nodded, then said:

"From today onwards for a week, the Uchiha will still enjoy all the rights of the Police Force. After a week, the official handover ceremony of the Police Force will take place, any questions?"

The village taking over the Police Force also needed to reassign personnel and prepare, it wasn't something that could be done in a day or two.

So the Third Hokage decided to let the Uchiha have a few more days of glory, showing his magnanimity as the Hokage.

"No problem."

Fugaku responded.

However, he also declared in front of all the clan heads to the Third Hokage:

"Hokage-sama, from now on, we Uchiha have no intention of interfering with any affairs of the village. But if anyone still wants to harm the Uchiha clan, we will not sit idly by."

The last sentence was said a bit heavily, making the Third Hokage's face change.

Everyone else heard it too.

The Uchiha were going to isolate themselves, close their doors and live their own lives, not wanting to have any more interaction with the other people in the village.

"I understand." The Third Hokage sighed deeply, seeming quite regretful.

Fugaku looked at Dan again: "Let's go."

Dan looked at the crowded doorway, pointed at the window next to him and said to his brother-in-law, "Let's go from here, it's closer."

After saying that, he strode towards the window, stepping on the portrait of the Second Hokage that had fallen on the ground halfway.

Leaving a large shoe print on Tobirama Senju's face.

The people around who saw this scene all had their pupils contract sharply.
