Chapter 445

"No, you are wrong."

"The Uchiha have been high and mighty for too long and don't understand the attitude of other ninja clans."

"Sometimes right and wrong, for us ninja clans, are actually irrelevant."

"The most important thing is credibility!"

"Since our ninja clans want to defect to someone or some force, then whether this force or this person is good or bad is actually irrelevant."

"We ninja clans actually want something very simple."

"That is, survival!"

"Actually, unless it's a large ninja clan, survival is very difficult."

"Choosing the wrong side could lead to the destruction of the clan, and even if you choose the right side, you might be abandoned by those in power as a discarded pawn for some reason."

"So under these circumstances, when small ninja clans choose a camp, they often value the credibility of those in power the most."

"Since Shisui chooses to defect to Sarutobi Hiruzen, and in fact fights Jin-kun to the death, and even pays with the lives of some people for this,"

"then no matter if Shisui is a spy or not, Sarutobi Hiruzen cannot abandon Shisui."

"Otherwise, the Hokage's credibility will collapse."

"Even if Sarutobi Hiruzen claims that Shisui is a fake defector, we small ninja clans will give up defecting to the Hokage."

"The reason is very simple!"

"In the real game of forces, it is too hard to judge right from wrong."

"We need to consider, if we defect to the Hokage, when we lose our utility value..."

"Can Sarutobi Hiruzen also make some fake evidence, then tell the outside world that we are spies, and then just abandon us directly?"

"So I think Jin-kun's method is not a big problem!"

"Even if Sarutobi Hiruzen knows it's fake, he must pinch his nose and acknowledge it."

"Otherwise, except for the core members of the Hokage faction like the Elder Council, other ninja clans will not dare, and cannot, get close to the Hokage faction."

"Including the Pig-Deer-Butterfly, because everyone can't afford to gamble!"

"After all, for a ninja clan, once you gamble wrong, it means complete destruction!"

"Unless it can be trusted 100%, otherwise a ninja clan will never defect!"

"99% won't work either!"

Silence.

Dead silence.

Following Aburame Shibi's words, Fugaku and Shisui were all shocked.

Yes.

They never expected that small and medium ninja clans like the Aburame would think about problems in this way.

Even if it's 99% trust, it's not enough for them to personally get involved.

This...

They all fell silent.

Because this is too far from their imagination.

No wonder.

Over the years, no clan has dared to contact the Uchiha.

Only when Uchiha Jin became strong and truly defeated several attacks by the Hokage faction, and even threw out a trump card like amending the law, did everyone not even mention coming to defect, they didn't even have tentative contact.

Only, the Aburame clan.

And the Aburame clan was willing to contact because Danzo squeezed them too hard, and even family geniuses like Aburame Torune, the successor of the next generation, were brainwashed and stuffed into the Root...

The Aburame clan even found it difficult to survive.

Only then, after the Uchiha's great victory and Sarutobi Hiruzen showing signs of decline, did they join the Uchiha as a last resort.

Otherwise, one can imagine.

Even if the Uchiha occupied the upper hand for a long time, the Aburame clan probably wouldn't have come to the door personally!

And now that the Inuzuka are willing to contact the Uchiha, it is indeed the credit of Aburame Shibi.

Only he, who understands the survival status of small and medium ninja clans, can grasp what everyone really cares about; otherwise, even if the Uchiha seems strong now, you want everyone to defect to you Uchiha?

Nonsense!

Absolutely impossible!

Because the Uchiha's unreliability is known to everyone in Konoha.

It's just that now Uchiha Jin has appeared, slightly changing the Uchiha's situation.

Otherwise, heh.

Fugaku: "..."

Shisui: "..."

The two looked at each other and all started to shut themselves off.

Obviously.

They also truly realized why the Uchiha was so miserable.

Especially, Fugaku.

Thinking back to when Aburame Shibi came to the door, he didn't even dare to give any promises...

He wanted to slap himself!

He really was quite a failure as a clan leader.

He always felt that the Uchiha's situation in Konoha was difficult and wanted to ease relations with other ninja clans countless times.

But, in reality.

He didn't even figure out what other ninja clans cared about or what their inner thoughts really were.

5.6 Even in the end, he could only sigh that the Uchiha's reputation was too bad.

Damn it.

Only now does he truly understand that other ninja clans don't even care if the Uchiha's reputation is bad or not.

Good guy, sigh!

Fugaku, who figured out the truth, even had a feeling of wanting to give up.

"Hmm, very good." Uchiha Jin spoke faintly: "What the Aburame clan leader said is exactly what I wanted to say."

"The fundamental problem of the Uchiha lies in their ideology."

"It has been fifty years since the ninja village era, but the Uchiha is still holding onto the concepts of the Warring States period."

"Everyone, the times have changed!"

"Since the Aburame clan has already explained it for me, I won't say more about the rest."

"Shisui, you have to work hard."

"In the next big play, you are the protagonist!"
