Chapter 481

~5 min read 980 words

Where did so much money come from?

It goes without saying!

And precisely because of this.

As Shisui looked at Setsuna once more, the depths of his eyes were filled with disdain.

"I believe we should seize power directly."

"I agree as well. Jin and the Clan Head are currently unprepared; as long as we can kill them in a short time, we can take complete control."

"Once Jin and the Clan Head are dead, the others naturally won't resist and will have no choice but to submit to us completely."

"In any case, Shisui also has a Mangekyo Sharingan; the success rate will be even higher with such a surprise attack."

"No, that's too risky!"

"Since Shisui has the Hokage backing him, we should go and seek refuge with the Hokage first."

"I agree with that too. With the Hokage's endorsement, Jin and Fugaku won't dare to act recklessly, and we can slowly contend with them!"

"We should notify the Hokage first. Once the Hokage brings the Anbu over, Jin and Fugaku will have no choice but to acknowledge our legitimate status."

"At that point, we can just contend with them slowly."

"We absolutely cannot have a direct clash; after all, Uchiha Jin also has a Mangekyo."

"Since we also have a Mangekyo on our side, and even the Hokage as our backer, we should plan this out slowly."

"You're talking nonsense, we should cut the Gordian knot!"

"You're the one talking nonsense, we should go seek refuge with the Hokage first."

"I believe this is a rare opportunity. Fugaku and Jin are unprepared right now. Although it requires taking a bit of a risk, the rewards will be the greatest once we succeed."

"I think we should be more steady and call the Hokage over first before doing anything."

"..."

The people present spoke up one after another.

The entire front courtyard appeared to be in a state of chaos.

Even.

The leaders of the two factions, Yashiro and Setsuna, had now begun to personally join in the cursing.

The occasion, which should have been solemn, was instantly turned into something resembling a vegetable market.

Uchiha Shisui began to feel numb.

Good grief!

Listening to the chaotic shouting and cursing before him, he truly had a splitting headache.

Suddenly, he understood.

Yes.

Before Uchiha Jin rose to power, every clan meeting was exactly like this scene.

The two factions would argue incessantly, and Fugaku would sit in the seat of honor, caught in the middle.

But, damn it.

Our newly formed faction hasn't even taken down the old guard of Fugaku and Jin yet, and you're already fighting over power?

Even if you want to fight, at least wait until after we've taken down the Clan Head and Jin!

Shisui couldn't understand it, but he was greatly shocked!

Simply a rabble!

Expecting this group to succeed?

Heh!

Might as well wash up and go to sleep.

However, it was fortunate.

He was only a fake faction leader; everything was being remotely controlled by Uchiha Jin from behind the scenes.

But through today's incident, Shisui had finally recognized his own limitations.

Letting him hack people to death was no problem, but as for being a faction leader?

Forget it.

He didn't have that talent.

"Shisui, you say something."

"That's right, Shisui, you are the leader."

"Who should we listen to? You have to state your position first!"

Yashiro and Setsuna both looked at Shisui.

Yes.

Although this was just a newly formed faction, the moderates and the radicals still had to fight over the issue of leadership first.

This kind of power struggle had basically become their subconscious behavior.

A while ago, they had fallen into silence.

It was only because Uchiha Jin was strong enough that they couldn't influence him.

Now, however, it was different.

Shisui had actually awakened the Mangekyo too?

This was a good thing!

They knew Shisui's personality better than anyone.

He was no different from Fugaku; both had indecisive personalities.

People like this were the most suitable to be propped up as puppets, which was why they were willing to agree.

He had a Mangekyo Sharingan and was an absolute powerhouse of the Uchiha.

The key was that his personality was weak.

As long as they could succeed, they would not only gain power but also acquire a super-enforcer.

Don't look at how old and decrepit they were; their strength might not be great, but when it came to scheming, they were geniuses.

There was only one point.

If there were no external enemies, their internal fighting was fine.

It was just that their strategic vision was far lacking; the Konoha higher-ups also fought internally, but at the very least, they could distinguish between primary and secondary contradictions...

At the very least.

Before completely eliminating external enemies, they wouldn't easily fight internally.

Even if they did fight internally, they could maintain a sense of proportion.

But look at this side.

The two Uchiha elders, Yashiro and Setsuna, were far inferior compared to them.

Shisui: "..."

He was completely bewildered.

Seeing everyone's eyes fixed on him, his mind went blank.

Was it his turn to speak?

But, what should he say?

He didn't know!

And just as he was struggling, he suddenly sensed a large group of people rushing over.

Immediately after.

He saw the courtyard of the Setsuna household being blasted open, and a group of elite Uchiha Jonin, leading countless Uchiha elites, surrounded them just like that.

The people leading them were none other than Fugaku and Jin!

This is great.

Looking at the two people before him, Shisui felt as if he were seeing his own kin.

If they hadn't come over, he would have been driven mad.

The moderates and the radicals were simply not human; their arguing was giving him a headache.

"Jin-kun, Clan Head..." Shisui just started to speak.
