Chapter 258

Yes.

Previously, when he approached Uchiha Jin, his thinking was actually very simple.

First, find a sufficiently reliable teacher for his son.

As Uchiha Jin, who could awaken the Mangekyo, was naturally his best and only choice.

As for becoming an elder, holding a nominal position in the Police Force, or receiving dividends from the Uchiha caravan...

These are the clan's rules!

Any Uchiha who can evolve the Mangekyo can obtain these things.

But, he never expected.

With each step of contact with Uchiha Jin, his mindset also began to slowly change.

Even, up to now.

Although Lord Jin is his son's teacher, in reality, even he himself has vaguely come to regard Lord Jin as his own teacher.

And most importantly, he has indeed learned a lot.

"Mm, thinking this way is good." Uchiha Jin nodded slowly: "There was no need to rush in the first place."

"In this ninja world, to put it bluntly, the strong are still revered."

"Things like strategy must also have strength as their foundation."

"As the strongest ninja clan, and possessing something like the Sharingan, as long as the Uchiha do not make some basic mistakes, it will be very difficult for the village to destroy them..."

"So, there is no need to dwell on it."

"Just do what needs to be done; as for the village, just pay a little attention to it."

"Actually, don't say I didn't tell you."

"After chatting with the Clan Head, I really have a bit of a grasp on why Sarutobi Hiruzen did this this time."

Speaking to this, his tone was relaxed.

Hearing this, Fugaku's eyes lit up, and he became entirely impatient.

Although comforted by Uchiha Jin, he had also begun to slowly calm down.

But, similarly.

Regarding Sarutobi Hiruzen's thoughts, he still cared very much in his heart.

"Oh, Lord Jin, please speak." Fugaku hurriedly opened his mouth.

Uchiha Jin did not hide anything regarding this and immediately began to speak.

"Do you remember what I just said?"

"What is being tested in this stage is endurance!"

"Since I understand this principle, there is no reason Sarutobi Hiruzen would not understand it."

"Thinking this way, the success or failure of the moment is actually not important."

"On the contrary, this matter has already become a quagmire; if Sarutobi Hiruzen gets trapped in this matter, the longer the time, the more disadvantageous it is for him!"

"Even if he wins in the end, his reputation will be ruined."

"Because the village lacks funding for the Police Force, this is something he can never deny."

"In that case, it is better to let go."

"Simply admitting a mistake; for a high-ranking person like him, this actually counts for nothing."

"After all, what is face? How much does that stuff cost per jin? I can sell it all to you!"

"As long as victory can be achieved, nothing else matters."

"So, this becomes simple."

"Anyway, this game is already chaotic; even if we continue to force it, even if we win in the end, we will only end up covered in filth."

"It is better to simply admit defeat, end this game, and then start the next one!"

"By setting up the trap oneself, one can seize the initiative."

"Moreover, doing this has another benefit: it can completely wash away the stains on one's body."

"Honestly and proactively admit the mistake, and make up the funds for the Police Force."

"This way, even if we clash with the village in the future, they cannot use this matter as a pretext."

"I have to admit, this old man is indeed formidable!"

Uchiha Jin looked full of emotion.

After all, the two characters 'letting go' are the ultimate test of the human heart.

Who among ordinary people can comprehend this?

Everyone knows that only by giving can one gain, but when the moment actually arrives, most are unwilling to let go.

But, it must be said.

Sarutobi Hiruzen did it; although it seemed he lost a sum of money, he actually perfected his golden body even more.

This deal is indeed profitable.

But Fugaku, sitting beside him, couldn't help but feel his scalp go numb, feeling only that these people were truly damn black-hearted.

Such a small matter, and they can still play it out into a flower.

Truly...

Thinking of my past self, I truly lost without any injustice.

"Sigh, it really gives me a headache." Fugaku couldn't help but speak: "Why make it so complicated?"

"But, never mind!"

"I admit I am not cut out for this; let Lord Jin be the one to have a headache over this matter."

"Since this matter has temporarily reached a conclusion, what concerns me more now is how we should proceed next?"

"Just say it directly, and I'll handle it for you!"

Yes.

Fugaku really has a headache.

He truly does not want to get involved in such brain-taxing matters.

Anyway, with a genius like Uchiha Jin in the clan, it's better to just follow his orders.

Uchiha Jin's mouth twitched.

Regarding Fugaku's mindless trust, he truly did not know how to retort.

But, never mind.

For his own schemes, he really cannot let the Uchiha fall.

It's just, how to do it?

Uchiha Jin's brain began to operate wildly once again.

Because he knew.

He could not stop; he must, as much as possible, create trouble for the village's high command.

He could not let the village's high command have idle time!

Otherwise, given these guys' temper, once they have idle time, they would find ways to deal with the Uchiha.

Passive defense is not his style.

This time, he would take the offensive!

After pondering for a moment, he finally spoke in a low voice.

"First, the first point."

"The foundation is most important; to contend with the village, we must ensure internal unity."

"Do everything possible to unite the clan."

"Even if we take a step back, even if they do not join us, they must not cause trouble for us."

"Then, spread the word."

"Say that the Police Force, considering the village has been established for so many years, finds that many situations are now completely different from when the village was first built."

"In order to better serve the villagers, in order to make the village better..."

"Therefore, our Police Force is preparing to revise the laws again!"

"Of course, the Police Force is very fair!"
