Chapter 462 Xiao
Chapter 462 Xiao
After the simple conversation, the Third Hokage's complexion looked much better, and his attitude in his words became more enthusiastic.
But Fugaku, as the clan leader, had an ugly expression.
"As for Xia Le's proposal, I will think about it carefully when I get back."
After a pause, Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at Fugaku and spoke again with a smile.
"As the Hokage, I have received the kindness of the Uchiha clan!"
"I believe that in the future, it will bring more contributions to the village!"
Xia Le smiled slightly: "Looking forward to Hokage-sama's reply!"
Uchiha Fugaku stood up, forced out a smile, and bid farewell to the Third Hokage in person.
The two of them walked all the way to the door. Fugaku stood behind him, bending slightly to say goodbye to each other.
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, but paused in his steps, and then he smiled and said: "Elder Xia Le is not like the legend, a strong man with no ambitions!"
Uchiha Fugaku was stunned for a moment and was stunned on the spot.
He did not participate in the conversation between him and the Hokage just now. Everything was hosted and guided by Xia Le.
Giving up his position in the Wood Industry Guards was an unbearable burden for Uchiha.
This kind of thing is also unacceptable to Fugaku.
But in front of outsiders, internal conflicts cannot break out directly. He can only wait for the third generation to leave before he can ask the other party in person.
Soon, Uchiha Fugaku sat in front of Xia Le again.
The door was closed tightly, and Fugaku poured tea for him.
"Elder Xia Le, I don't understand!"
He said in a deep voice.
Xia Le picked up the tea cup on the table and smiled slightly: "Clan Chief Fugaku's magnanimity has increased somewhat!"
"It seems that turning on the kaleidoscope gives you a little more confidence and confidence."
"That's a good thing."
Fugaku frowned slightly: "The position of the police force is a benefit that the Uchiha clan has only obtained after fighting for it for so many years."
"If we give up, what will we Uchiha be in Konoha?"
Hearing this, Xia Le just chuckled: "So, what does Chief Fugaku want Uchiha to become in Konoha?"
"what?"
Fugaku was stunned.
This question stopped him.
What do you want to be?
Being in the big family of Konoha, Uchiha suffered too many constraints, and it was extremely difficult for them to obtain some benefits.
"The position of the police force will only bring greater harm to Uchiha!"
"It will make us suffer more cold looks from the village, and it will make the Hokage and his family even more fearful!"
"As for the benefits."
Xia Le sneered.
"With all due respect, I didn't see any of it."
The police force sounds nice, managing the order of the entire village, but to put it bluntly, isn't it just security? Not only is there no benefit at all, but it will also offend many ninjas.
This is also the deep-seated reason why the Uchiha clan has been disliked by many Konoha ninjas for a long time.
"on the contrary!"
"In today's situation, it is far less useful than cultivating a group of elite teams belonging to Uchiha ourselves!"
"Losing the power to manage the village is sometimes not a bad thing!"
"Giving up is to gain more!"
Xia Le said slowly.
Fugaku frowned, trying to understand the other person's thinking.
"Your suggestion will consume a lot of resources in the clan."
"In fact, if you choose from civilians, it will be difficult to select high-quality, qualified ninjas."
"I think the Third Hokage should be smiling happily at this moment."
Xia Le shook his head gently: "I have my own plans."
"As for the qualified little guy."
"It's nothing you need to worry about."
"I will be personally responsible for this team."
Hearing this, Fugaku fell silent.
He could vaguely feel that in his hands, Uchiha seemed to be heading for a different path.
-
In the Hokage's office.
"You said that the Uchiha clan wants to give up the power of the police force?"
"How can this be?"
"What do they mean? Letting them delegate power is even more difficult than killing them!"
In front of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo, Mito Kadenen, and Koharu Koharu all had expressions of disbelief on their faces.
"Although I don't know what Xia Le is thinking about!"
"But this thing is true!"
The Third Hokage said in a deep voice.
He is also trying to judge the other party's plan.
His subconscious instinct told him that Xia Le's move must have other meanings. But under the current situation, it is impossible to guess.
Because, no matter how you look at it, selecting civilian orphans and taking them in to become ninjas is a thankless task.
"He wanted to select civilians and build a team."
"What does this mean?"
"Without going through a ninja school? No need for training in the village to raise these orphans?"
"Would an Uchiha be so kind?"
Danzo's eyes flickered and he said doubtfully.
"I can't understand him either."
The Third Hokage said.
He was smoking a cigarette and thinking carefully.
Calculate the impact on the village after agreeing to this matter.
"Hiruzen!"
"Compared to the fact that the power of the police force is in our hands, the matter he wants to mess with doesn't seem to have any impact on us!"
Xiaochun said hesitantly before going to bed.
She couldn't see any loopholes in it.
"Uchiha, are you showing kindness to us?"
"Anyway, this is a good thing. This Uchiha Sharaku may be someone close to the village."
"I heard that he is also Jing's junior?"
Mito Menyan said.
Hearing this, the Third Hokage was startled, and his expression softened: "Maybe!"
"But no matter what, this thing is indeed a good thing!"
When Konoha regains control of the police force, it will naturally be able to strengthen the supervision of the Uchiha clan and stabilize the peace and stability of the village.
As for the conditions put forward by the other party, they have no impact on Konoha.
"You can promise him!"
"But the personnel of the team he established must also be clearly recorded in Konoha's files and under our control!"
After Danzo thought carefully for a moment, he finally said.
After receiving the affirmation of the three people, Sarutobi Hiruzen also showed a smile on his face.
"Then let's do it!"
Day two.
Uchiha Fugaku and Xia Le were invited to the Hokage's office.
In the small space, people from Konoha's elders sat across from them.
Mito Menyan, Koharu and Danzo are all here.
"Clan Chief Fugaku, Elder Xia Le!"
"After discussion by the elders, we accept the Uchiha clan's proposal yesterday!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile.
Hearing this, Fugaku's expression changed slightly.
He knew what this meant. The Uchiha clan would no longer be in control of the police force.
"Thank you!"
Xia Le smiled and stretched out his right hand.
Sarutobi Hiruzen also stretched out his hand, and they held each other's hands, both with smiles in their eyes.
Next to them, Mito Kadeni and Koharu breathed a sigh of relief, with relaxed smiles on their faces. In their eyes, this was undoubtedly a big step in easing the relationship between the village and Uchiha.
"Konoha allows Uchiha to select qualified children among the orphans after the war and establish a team affiliated with the village."
"But Xia Le, the files of this team also need to be backed up in the village."
"They also need to obey the village's orders!"
The Third Hokage said in a deep voice.
While speaking, he stared at the other person's eyes carefully, for fear that the other party would have any opinions.
"can!"
"But, this team only obeys the Hokage's orders!" Xia Le nodded and said again.
The Third Hokage was startled. After thinking for a moment, he nodded slowly: "Okay!"
The two parties have now reached a new tacit understanding, and you can see the smiles on their faces in the following conversation.
"By the way, what do you plan to name this new team?"
“What positions will they serve?”
Sarutobi Hiruzen asked with a smile while feeling relaxed.
Xia Le smiled slightly: "Just call me Xiao!"
"As for their duties, they will be responsible for intelligence-related matters such as detection and assassination in the future!"
The Third Hokage was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "This is the same as Anbu!"
"Yes, at the same time, they will also serve as village supervisors!"
"Responsible for Hokage-sama!"
Xia Le said again.
Sarutobi Hiruzen inexplicably felt that something was wrong in his words, but after hearing the words of being responsible for the Hokage, he couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.
As long as you obey his orders, there will be no problem.
There is no doubt that the Uchiha clan will be responsible for the establishment of this team, but he is the one who has the highest control.
Although, this may only be in name in the subsequent procedures.
But this is enough!
At the critical moment, with this contract as the main priority, he can control everything.
The signing ceremony ended quickly, and on a thin piece of paper, the names of Sarutobi Hiruzen, Konoha's elders, Uchiha Fugaku, and Xia Le were left.
"I have a hunch that this contract will bring the village into a new era!"
"The integration and goodwill of Uchiha will become the biggest driving force for the development of Konoha!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen said with a smile.
"Of course, the Uchiha clan has always been a part of Konoha!"
Xia Le smiled.
His posture and words left no room for fault among the elders.
Mito Kadenyan firmly believes that Xia Le is the Uchiha who is close to Konoha.
Finally, everyone took a group photo with a harmonious atmosphere. This photo is also the only one that the Uchiha clan has participated in since the founding of Konoha.
Its historical significance is of great significance, and it also affects the future.
Afterwards, both parties dispersed.
"I hope Elder Xia Le's decision is right!"
"otherwise!"
On the way back, Uchiha Fugaku shook his head and sighed.
He has always disagreed with this resolution. This tends to be a long-standing inertia. To anyone in Konoha, the Guard represents the Uchiha.
The two parties have been bound, but starting from tomorrow, everything will change.
Fugaku could even imagine how angry the tribesmen who were about to get the news would be.
Time passes, and one day passes in the blink of an eye.
Early the next morning.
Xia Le had just woken up and was sitting in the courtyard, instructing three disciples in their cultivation.
"The more precise the control of chakra, the better."
"The more familiar you are with this energy that comes from inside the cells, the more powerful you will be able to use the smallest amount of chakra to explode in future battles!"
"In addition, the weights tied to your bodies will also strengthen your physique."
"Physical skills are also a crucial point in cultivation!"
Xia Le's words echoed in the courtyard.
The three little ones gritted their teeth, tied heavily with lead, and ran back and forth on the branches of the big tree in the pond in the courtyard.
This unique way of cultivation has never been seen by others.
Similarly, Xia Le was also strapped with weights.
The fragility of the ninja's body was what he despised the most. After getting used to the physical strength of the pirate world, this frail body was so weak that he despised it.
He is also making this physical body stronger through various trainings.
The strength of the physical body, in a sense, also promotes the improvement of chakra.
Xia Le has not been idle during this period of time.
He is studying the nature of chakra energy, and also comprehending the natural energy between heaven and earth.
It also completes the training of various ninjutsu and integrates it into one.
At the same time, he has a rough plan in mind to improve his strength.
"From Sharingan to Rinnegan!"
"Wood Release!"
"Natural energy! Immortal mode."
This is currently the fastest way that Xia Le can think of to increase his strength.
The establishment of a team named Akatsuki was to prepare for his final step in the future.
While he was thinking, the courtyard door was pushed open, and a group of people strode in with great momentum.
Xia Le looked up and saw that the leader was Uchiha Setsuna.
When the three Nagatos saw this scene, they immediately stopped practicing and stood in front of Xia Le with sweating profusely.
Immediately afterwards, a few figures also arrived, firmly blocking the three of Nagato.
Xia Le narrowed his eyes: "Huo Guang, what's going on?"
The few people standing in the front were the ninjas of the Uchiha clan who had recently taken refuge under Xia Le under the leadership of Huo Guang.
There were chunin and genin among these people, a total of six people.
At this moment, looking at Uchiha Setsuna and the others who were striding forward with solemn and nervous expressions, sweat dripped from their bodies.
"It's a matter for the police!"
"There is news in the clan today that under the leadership of you and the clan leader, you will give up your position in the guard force!"
"So Setsuna they will!"
Uchiha Fire said quickly.
Xia Le understood in a blink of an eye. He raised his eyes and looked at the man who was walking in the front with a fierce look on his face. A trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.
Soon, Uchiha Setsuna arrived in front of him.
Behind him, there were more than ten people following him, and there was strength in numbers.
"Get away, Firelight!"
"It's not the turn of a little person like you to stand in front of me in this matter!"
Uchiha Setsuna shouted.
Huo Guang's body trembled, but he did not take a step back. His eyes turned and immediately turned into a Sharingan, with a magatama spinning rapidly in it.
"What do you want to do to Elder Xia Le?"
He took a deep breath and shouted angrily as well.
The other four Uchiha behind him also had sharp eyes and did not retreat at all.
"Haha~~"
"He's just a kid who just opened his Sharingan, but he dares to bark at me!"
Uchiha Setsuna smiled instead of angry, staring at Xia Le behind him.
"Elder Xia Le, what do you mean by giving up your position as a guard?"
"When will it be your turn to take charge of the affairs of the Uchiha clan?"
"The Guard has been bound to Uchiha for a long time. You are not qualified to make decisions for us!"
A series of words made Xia Le, who was sitting there, look even colder.
The next second, he stood up slowly.
"Fire!"
A soft sound.
Uchiha Fire turned his head.
"Back off!"
Xia Le said lightly.
"Yes!"
Uchiha Huoguang nodded immediately and led a team of five people to stand on both sides, staring at the dozen or so people in front of him with a wary expression.
Xia Le stepped forward and came to the front. His eyes first glanced around, and then locked on Uchiha Setsuna.
"My kindness seems to have caused you to misunderstand a little!"
"Elder Setsuna!"
After a pause, Xia Le's eyes turned into a kaleidoscope.
In an instant, a huge pupil force oppressed and crushed everyone in front of him.
"That is!"
"I am the strongest person in Uchiha!"
"The one who has no right to question is you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Le's pupils bloomed with light.
For an instant, confusion and fear appeared in Uchiha Setsuna's eyes.
It's been an illusion.
