Get Ready to Burn!

Chapter 42 Get Ready to Burn!

A barbecue led to a bloody incident!

Recalling the headline he had prepared for the Konoha Daily, Uchiha Jin, who was now inside the Akimichi Yakitori shop, couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

That's right!

Although Uchiha Jin has never used the media as a powerful weapon, it doesn't mean that someone with a background in dragon-slaying techniques wouldn't be prepared.

In this day and age, they're still relying on spreading rumors to manipulate public opinion. This crude method is so ridiculous that Uchiha Jin is speechless.

What Jhin found most frustrating was that Danzo's little tricks were surprisingly effective.

It's hard to know whether to marvel at Danzo's good fortune or at how fragile those who sacrificed their lives for him were.

If we only consider this point, if Uchiha Jin really wanted to cause trouble, the police department's authority in Konoha would be more than enough to crush the so-called Konoha F4 in terms of public opinion.

Although the technology in this world is somewhat strange, it is still a place where strength reigns supreme.

Public opinion can only bully simple-minded people like White Fang. Uchiha Jin doesn't believe that Sarutobi Hiruzen wouldn't have the courage to swallow his pride.

As for Danzo?

That guy could probably lick his face clean... Ugh~~~

Just imagining that disgusting scene in his mind sent chills down Uchiha Jin's spine.

While public opinion may not be very effective, it's enough to disgust those old sly guys like Hiruzen Sarutobi and also to expand on today's gains.

The thought of Hiruzen Sarutobi's speechless expression, his resentful and yielding face for the sake of the so-called "Will of Fire," greatly eased the repression that Uchiha Jin had been feeling for the past two years.

People are sometimes strange like that; they keep pretending and eventually even fool themselves.

What truly defines a person is their actions, and while Hiruzen Sarutobi's past may not be considered utterly heinous, his scheming and politician persona was certainly quite evident.

But the more someone is like this, the more self-satisfied they become, using flowery language to embellish themselves, ultimately forgetting all the dark aspects of their past.

Even when faced with a dark choice again, they would use flowery language to embellish themselves, which is one of the most basic yet most practical methods in the art of dragon slaying.

Originally, this was not a weakness at all; in fact, for the ninja world, which lacked political sensitivity, it could be considered an amazing technique.

However, Uchiha Jin knew that when someone wears a mask for a long time, it becomes difficult for them to take it off.

While this mask of "Will of Fire" gave Hiruzen Sarutobi ample convenience, it also became a shackle that bound his principles of conduct.

Therefore, Uchiha Jin was able to act with impunity, while Hiruzen Sarutobi, who clearly held real power in Konoha and possessed peak Kage-level strength, could only silently endure insults and ridicule.

"waiter!"

Uchiha Jin's smiling gaze swept over the smug Uchiha Jonin and the Akimichi clan ninja who was stiff in the air but had to temporarily act as a waiter.

Yes!

The Akimichi Yakitori restaurant looks strangely familiar now. Apart from Akimichi Choza, who is sitting at the cashier and stuffing a few skewers into his mouth from time to time, many of the other staff members were just confronting the Uchiha clan not long ago.

However, with the police department's crackdown on the "hidden spies" coming to an end, the Uchiha group set off in a grand procession towards the famous Akimichi Yakitori restaurant in Konoha.

Although the crowd still couldn't quite believe that the Uchiha clan would go so far as to trample on the "Darkness of the Ninja World" and then spit blood all over Konoha's "Strongest Hokage" just for a barbecue.

However, as supporters of the Hokage lineage, and given that the Uchiha clan's goal was the Akimichi Shōtori-ya owned by their clan leader, they naturally wouldn't let their guard down.

So...

The Akimichi ninjas, who were responsible for monitoring and guarding, were now taking on the responsibility of serving customers due to a sudden shortage of manpower at the yakitori restaurant.

Ah!

To be honest, the Akimichi family's culinary skills are truly exceptional!

As expected of the pig among the three families of pig, deer, and butterfly...

Uh……

Okay, it's the Butterfly clan, one of the three families of Ino-Shika-Cho.

Looking at the burly Akimichi waiters in front of him, Uchiha Jin felt that his imagination of the "butterfly" had been shattered once again.

Multiplication Technique and Butterfly Transformation Technique...

By silently observing the more than twenty Jonin Akimichi who had become full-time waiters through his Sharingan, Uchiha Jin gained a clearer understanding of the strength of Konoha, the strongest ninja village.

It's not that Konoha is weak, it's just that the leader is too useless!

Just like the Uchiha clan's Fugaku clan leader and Setsuna elder who had an incredibly lucky start, Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura, who were overpowered, didn't fare much better.

Possessing either the Crouching Dragon or the Young Phoenix is ​​enough to conquer the world; now that four have appeared at once, how can they possibly conquer it? Konoha is truly plagued by misfortune!

"Bring the wine!"

Uchiha Jin suddenly stood up and, full of pride, spoke arrogantly to the many Uchiha in front of him.

"Everyone, eat and drink well! All expenses today will be on the clan leader!"

"Long live!"

"Long live!"

"Long live!"……

The Uchiha clan members, already thrilled by their triumph tonight, were once again pushed to a climax by Uchiha Jin's words.

Yes, the Akimichis are busy again...

Meanwhile, far away in the Uchiha clan's territory, the clan head Fugaku sneezed again for no apparent reason, and for a moment he even began to wonder if he was really getting old...

(Fugaku: Damn it! Someone's definitely trying to get me!)

Amidst the cheers and laughter, Uchiha Jin's expression gradually calmed down, and his deep eyes slowly shifted towards the iconic Hokage Building beneath the Hokage Rock in the north.

Many things happened tonight, and Uchiha Jin even accomplished a feat that many people wouldn't have dared to even dream of in the past.

However, Uchiha Jin himself knew that his goal was never to help the Uchiha take revenge on Danzo or to seize Hiruzen Sarutobi's position as Hokage.

However, these were all secondary to Uchiha Jin; they were things he did as a member of the Uchiha clan and as the elder of the Uchiha clan.

At a deeper level, the host of the system acts as a way to provide a better growing environment for its own leeks, loosening the soil and weeding as needed.

Abusing Danzo and humiliating Sarutobi are not important!

From beginning to end, Uchiha Jin had only one goal!

That's still water!

The "Shisui of the Body Flicker Technique" who was kicked away by Uchiha Jin time and time again not long ago, but that doesn't mean that Shisui was really that incompetent.

Quite the opposite.

Shisui's strength was thoroughly proven by Uchiha Jin in those repeated "kicks". The reason for this result was simply that Shisui subconsciously wanted to escape, and felt powerless between the village and the clan.

Uchiha Jin had no killing intent, and Uchiha Shisui had no fighting intent... It was like Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai, one was willing to hit and the other was willing to be hit!

and so!

As that pitiful old face reappeared before his eyes, Uchiha Jin, standing by the campfire, couldn't help but fan the constantly floating and exploding sparks towards the Hokage Building.

"Danzo, prepare to burn!"
