: Attempting to Draw a Tiger but Ending Up with a Dog!

Chapter 9: Attempting to Draw a Tiger but Ending Up with a Dog!

That's not right!

Uchiha Jin hesitated for a moment before looking at the two people in front of him. Logically speaking, it was not surprising that these two old rivals, who were famous in the clan, would behave this way.

The fact that the two people in front of them didn't actually fight is what seems rather strange to many outsiders.

However, the hostile attitude of the two at this moment, along with the fragmented words that Uchiha Jin had heard along the way, suddenly gave rise to a strange and bizarre sense of CP (couple pairing) in his heart.

This……

Isn't it just a copy of Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura?

Sarutobi Fugaku? Shimura Setsuna?

Yes.

Fugaku Uchiha is responsible for playing the kind and friendly "red-faced" leader, while Setsuna Uchiha is responsible for playing the brave, irritable, and stern-faced high-ranking official. This combination of tactics is enough to make the innocent ninjas turn pale, making it much easier to win them over or suppress them later.

of course.

For Uchiha Jin, who had received training in dragon-slaying techniques, this simple political approach was merely a rudimentary form of political organization.

It's probably an enhanced version of the so-called "temporary worker blame-shifting tactic," but it's enough for them to make a name for themselves in this politically chaotic world of ninjas.

As for the effectiveness of this political tactic, Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura next door have already served as good examples.

However, Uchiha Jin never imagined that a clan that should have been destroyed by internal strife and self-destruction would have such budding "advanced" political thinking.

This is really not right!

If the Uchiha clan truly possessed such abilities, how could they have fallen into such a disorganized state?

It should be noted that although the overall strength of the Uchiha clan is not comparable to that of the entire Hidden Leaf Village, if two high-ranking members with sufficient political skills could emerge to unify them.

With such internal unity and external alliances, the Uchiha clan is undoubtedly a terrifying force that no other ninja village in the world would want to face.

Damn!

Realizing this, Uchiha Jin gritted his teeth, and his gaze toward Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Setsuna became increasingly disappointed.

"What's this guy trying to do?"

The clan leader and the Grand Elder both frowned, vaguely sensing that Jin might be thinking of something offensive.

That's right.

Uchiha Jin's contemptuous lips curled slightly as he gave the two Uchiha leaders in front of him an approving smile, and his expression grew increasingly hostile.

I'm just mocking you two pieces of trash!

While the Uchiha clan may not have the same prestige as Hiruzen Sarutobi, who held the title of Hokage, their inherent strength and resources meant that, to some extent, their influence was not far behind.

Uh……

Uchiha Jin silently observed the barely suppressed fierceness in Uchiha Fugaku's eyes and the barely concealed gentleness beneath Uchiha Setsuna's wrinkled face.

The appearance is indeed lacking, and the misalignment is quite severe.

But that's not the point!

The main point is that you two little trash are really useless. Even though you have Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura as role models, you can't even do something as simple as copying homework.

Despite creating so-called radical and moderate factions, their actual effect was almost non-existent, and they almost triggered real internal strife.

Trying to draw a tiger but ending up with a dog instead!

Heh~~~tui!

"Excuse me, my throat is a little sore!"

Uchiha Jin grinned at the two people in front of him without any apology. Under the increasingly hostile gazes of Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Setsuna, his brain circuits were now working frantically.

So the reason I've been working so hard is because of your two muscular intestines!

Uchiha Setsuna, who played the role of "Clan Chief of the Pot," showed no political awareness whatsoever that Shimura Danzo was willing to take the blame. Instead, he even thought of dragging down the Uchiha clan chief, who was portraying a glorious image.

If the First Elder had immediately said, "Fugaku, you'll regret this!", he would have betrayed the clan leader's wishes and secretly gathered forces to launch a lightning armed coup.

So, is it really possible for the Uchiha clan, a powerful family in Konoha whose overall strength is obviously higher than that of the Sarutobi and Shimura clans, to successfully raid the homes of Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura?

If the decapitation operation is successfully completed, and the entire Hidden Leaf Village is plunged into confusion and helplessness, then the Uchiha clan leader, Fugaku, who has been ineffective in managing his clansmen, will jump out and shout again.

"All of this was due to Setsuna Uchiha's own willful actions and has absolutely nothing to do with the Uchiha clan. Setsuna Uchiha will be stripped of his position as Elder and imprisoned for life..."

This enhanced version of the "temporary worker blame-shifting tactic" is combined with the inevitable threat Konoha will face from the four Kage villages.

If Fugaku Uchiha accidentally and "excitedly" reveals his Mangekyou Sharingan under these circumstances, the final result will most likely be that he "reluctantly" becomes the Fifth Hokage...

"It's so hard to manage a bad teammate..."

As Uchiha Jin thought about it, his thoughts became increasingly unconventional. At the same time, his gaze toward Uchiha Setsuna became more and more peculiar, while his gaze toward Uchiha Fugaku became more and more sympathetic. Finally, he couldn't help but speak again.

"Chieftain, you've really suffered these past years..."

As soon as Uchiha Jin uttered those words, not only did Uchiha Fugaku's gaze become very strange, but even he himself couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Wait a minute... Fugaku Uchiha doesn't deserve any sympathy either!

While this guy may not have a teammate like Danzo who's willing to take the blame, that's not an excuse for him, as the head of the Uchiha clan, to shirk responsibility.

Temporary worker... If the subordinate is ignorant, can the leader also be ignorant?

Uchiha Setsuna is getting senile. Uchiha Fugaku should have taken the responsibility of reminding him, otherwise, wouldn't he be repeating the tragedy of Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura later on?

Ok……

This is confirmed...

Within three steps of Zhuge Liang, there will surely be a phoenix chick!

Whether it's Uchiha Setsuna or Uchiha Fugaku, both of them are complete idiots!

"Indeed, in a world where power resides within oneself, one cannot place one's hopes on that foolish game of power!"

Fortunately, Uchiha Jin had never placed any hope on these two good-for-nothings. He was only thinking about when he could eat at their funeral. He quickly realized what was going on, and his sympathetic gaze vanished instantly, replaced by his previous disdain and arrogance.

"One hundred million taels! Don't just stand there, transfer the money!"

(へ╬)!

(へ╬)!

In a short moment, Uchiha Jin's ever-changing expression and undisguised malice enraged the two Uchiha leaders. The casual number in his last words made their already pale faces turn even darker.

"Do you even know how much 100 million taels of silver is?!"

Despite having the title of "most ferocious eye," Fugaku Uchiha was the first to calm down. He stepped forward half a step to block Setsuna Uchiha, who was about to explode, and coldly questioned the handsome figure in front of him.

It's important to understand that while ninjas earn money much more easily than ordinary people, 100 million ryo is no small sum for any power; it's enough to put a bounty on the black market for the corpses of three Hokage's sons.

therefore.

Even though he felt that Uchiha Jin must have a reason for his actions, Uchiha Fugaku, as the "gentle clan leader," still chose to find out the reason first. If it was really something trivial, then it wouldn't be too late to beat him up later.

However, Uchiha Jin, who had just realized how troublesome these two guys were, naturally didn't have a good look on his face and scolded them with a look of disappointment.

"Why ask so many questions? Just send the money. Keeping so much money for you is a waste; you might as well give it to me to enhance the Uchiha clan's foundation!"

Ah!

Upon hearing this, Fugaku Uchiha's face darkened along with Elder Setsuna's, but a hint of joy welled up inside him.

really!

Although Uchiha Jin is extremely annoying, it seems that he has actually come up with some good ideas this time.

The clan leader glanced slightly at the elder beside him, who also smiled slightly. Their tacit understanding seemed to transcend space and time at that moment.

final!

"Money and such are another matter!"

The gentle expression on Fugaku Uchiha's face vanished instantly, replaced by an extremely cold and stern expression. Setsuna Uchiha also instantly appeared behind Jin Uchiha and continued speaking in perfect unison.

"But I think it's time to teach you properly what it means to respect your elders!"
