Chapter 7

The loud noise in the courtyard awakened Uchiha Fugaku, closed his eyes and listened, and another Konoha Elder was killed in his residence last night.

Also killed were two Uchiha clansman in charge of patrol, who had their throat cut.

The clansman came and went quickly, and the clutter of footsteps gradually disappeared in Uchiha Fugaku's ears.

It seems that I guessed right, taking advantage of the sensitive period of various countries in the ninja world, Konoha's High Echelon is also constantly gathering power in the village.

As long as these Elders are still alive, they will have a certain influence on the decision-making of the top management.

When the Elder Group dies, the Uchiha genocide crisis will follow.

Two Elders have been killed in a row, and Konoha's motivation to send troops to the Land of Rain has been achieved.

Uchiha Fugaku walked out of the house in his clothes and came to Clan's usual meeting place. In the middle of the courtyard were placed two black shroud bags. The shroud bags had been opened and the two clansman were lying inside.

The body bag has been pulled away, revealing the pale face of the deceased. Uchiha Fugaku recognized one of the faces at once, Uchiha Moriko of Police Guards, awakened 2-Tomoe Sharingan, aptitude is not very good.

Several Konoha's High Echelon and the families of the two deceased are here. One of the two children of the deceased's family has attracted Uchiha Fugaku's attention.

The 2 children are slightly older and look 7-8 years old, the smaller 5~6 years old, the 2 children cry very sad, breathless, it seems that didn't expect the father who has always been in the mountains will stop suddenly Passed away.

The weak waves of Pupil Strength came from the two children. This is why the two children attracted Fugaku's attention. The two children may wake up Sharingan at any time.

"Fugaku is here," Uchiha Tenjō saw his son and said, "We are going to check on Elder Yamamoto's body. Come with us."

Uchiha Fugaku nodded said: "Okay, Otōsan."

The body of Elder Yamamoto was temporarily parked in the Intelligence Department. When Uchiha Clan entered, Konoha's High Echelon had already seen the body and had not made any conclusion.

A morgue in the Ministry of Information, where a headless body was parked, covered with white cloth.

Several Uchiha clansman carefully lifted the white cloth and inspected the wounds on his body.

The wound on the neck is very neat, and it seems to have been cut by a knife.

Uchiha Tenjō pulled Fugaku aside and said, "See what you see."

"No," Fugaku murmured in a low voice. "The head of the corpse is lost. It is very likely that Elder Yamamoto knew the murderer. He was afraid to see the murderer when he was searching the memory of the intelligence department. It is estimated that the same group of people killed Elder Yamada."

Uchiha Tenjō nodded said: "Chilling, in order to achieve the goal by fair means or foul, two Elders have died in a row. I don't know if these people will kill several Elders before they will take it."

"Elder Yamamoto should be the last one," Uchiha Fugaku said: "Public opinion is enough, killing an Elder will only make Konoha's prestige, but it will be counterproductive."

Uchiha Tenjō nodded, the son's words make sense.

"I want to report the investigation results to Hokage-sama at noon. It seems that the Shinōbi who assassinated two Elders can only be designated as wind and rain and the Three Countries," Uchiha Tenjō said. In order to report, and after the killing of Elder Yamamoto, Uchiha will be more passive."

"From now on, you can send more patrols to increase your night patrol," Uchiha Fugaku said. "The villagers thought that the reason why the assassination stopped was because of Uchiha's credit, which saved Uchiha Clan's reputation."

Uchiha Tenjō nodded said: "It coincides with my thoughts. Only in this way can Uchiha's pressure be relieved."

Konoha to live together in harmony for 7 days, not at all assassination occurred, most of the villagers were relaxed, Uchiha Clan sent a large number of clansman to protect Konoha day and night news, also quietly spread.

Konoha is full of rumors of assassinations. The murderer seems to be confirmed as one of the Wind and Rain and Three Countries. Occasionally, other remarks will appear and will soon disappear.

Uchiha Fugaku stood idly by and watched the Konohagakure people continue to be instigated. A few years later, Konoha's White Fang was forced to commit suicide by Konoha's High Echelon in this way.

In the storm of public opinion, the reputation of Police Guards has changed a bit, which is unfortunately 10000 lucky for Uchiha.

Fugaku spent a few days to sort out the memory of Genjutsu in his mind and strengthen Genjutsu training. Now that the situation is tense, he may be sent to the battlefield at any time.

Whether it is Ninjutsu or Taijutsu, it can not be improved in a short time, only Genjutsu, relying on Sharingan's powerful Kekkei Genkai, can play a powerful ability.

And with the increase of Pupil Strength, Genjutsu will only become more powerful, the best life-saving ability on the battlefield.

At night, in the Uchiha Tenjō study room, two father and son are talking.

"The war is getting closer, the battle of Land of Rain has become fierce," Uchiha Tenjō said: "The ninja war may break out at any time. You will go to Hokage's Office tomorrow morning. Hokage-sama has approved you to promote Jōnin There will be new tasks."

Uchiha Fugaku nodded, this is as early as I expected, but I don't know who will be assigned to it.

Uchiha Tenjō continued warned repeatedly: "You are likely to be sent to the Land of Rain this time, be careful yourself, the four countries are fighting, the powerhouse is countless, don't be brave."

Uchiha Fugaku nodded said: "Otōsan rest assured, I will be careful."

The next morning, Hokage's Office, Uchiha Fugaku knocked on the door to enter, with Sāndaime alone.

"Hokage -sama, Uchiha Fugaku came to report."

"This time the task was done well," Sāndaime said. "Uchiha Fugaku, after verification of this Sunagakure information, officially promoted you to Konoha Jōnin. Now there is an S-Rank task that you need to complete."

Uchiha Fugaku has a calm heart and is well prepared.

"As Konohagakure Shinōbi, it is my duty to complete the task." Uchiha Fugaku said.

Sāndaime nodded is still satisfied with Fugaku's attitude.

"Konoha has killed two Elders in a row, and the Three Countries in the wind and rain are to blame," Sāndaime Hokage said. "The last ninja war has passed for many years. The ninja has forgotten the strength of Konoha. Konoha founded Vanguard Squad. You Belongs to Vanguard Troops Captain Hatake Sakumo."

"Yes, Hokage -sama."

Fugaku thought he would be under Sannin's hands, and didn't expect was actually assigned to Hatake Sakumo.

Go out of Hokage's Office, open the task scroll, which says the meeting time and location of the task.

The time is tomorrow morning, and the location is a forest outside Konohagakure. The tail section of the scroll is autographed by Sāndaime Hokage. Only when you get the autograph of Sāndaime can you join Vanguard Troops.
