Naruto's strongest shadow escape

Chapter 2 and Four

Konoha politics

The Third Ninja World War had just ended, and another big event happened in the Ninja World.

That was the death of Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas of Konoha. As a famous shadow-level powerhouse in the ninja world, the news of his death was huge.

There are also different opinions in the ninja world as to which side is so bold that they ambushed a Kage-level expert in Konoha. You must know that this is undoubtedly equivalent to declaring war on Konoha!

However, what is incredible is that Konoha did not react at all to this matter, and tried its best to conceal the relevant information about Orochimaru's death in order to hide the existence of Hashirama and Tobirama.

As for Raikage, another insider, he also returned to the Kumo Ninja after that battle. His own reincarnation of the dirty earth was also hidden from the light, so the Kumo Ninja also remained silent about it.

The major forces in the ninja world just gloated over this, and had no intention or energy to cause trouble. After all, the war had just ended, and the five major ninja villages were busy dealing with internal conflicts.

First of all, the Suna Ninja lost the most in this Ninja World War. This made the status of the fourth generation Kazekage Rasa who had just come to power even more unstable. Even the daimyo of the Land of Wind had a huge impact on the strength of the Suna Ninja Village. doubts and began to cut support for its economy.

Iwa Ninja also lost more than he won. Not only was he defeated by Konoha in the Battle of Kannabi, but he also lost the war with Kumo Ninja. More than [-] ninjas were killed successively. He was also one of the five major ninja villages. The family with the greatest casualties.Iwa Ninja Village needs to recuperate and replenish the lost soldiers.

The Kumo ninja had a tailwind in the early stage but a wave in the later stage. The death of the Sandaime Raikage was the biggest loss.The Fourth Raikage has just come to power and will be busy suppressing the opposition forces in the Ninja Village in a short period of time.

The Mist Ninja was at a disadvantage in the early stage, and the Third Mizukage was killed. In the later stage, he won certain small-scale battles, which meant he had no wins and no losses.The young fourth generation Mizukage also has to face many opposition forces in the Ninja Village, especially those intertwined blood-inherited limited world families. The two have become like fire and water, and civil war is about to break out.

As the biggest winner of this ninja war, Konoha once again proved its status as the leader of the five great ninja villages with its strength. However, after the war, the figure of Orochimaru was inexplicably lost, which weakened Konoha's advantage. Quite a few.At this time, Konoha was in the midst of the power transition of the Hokage, and the election for the Fourth Generation was imminent.

The conservatives headed by Hiruzen originally recommended Namikaze Minato to run, while the radicals headed by Danzo recommended Orochimaru to run. Although the two factions were competing against each other, they were unanimous about Uchiha's candidacy. Join hands to suppress!

To be fair, the contribution of the Uchiha clan in this war is not insignificant. On the western battlefield, they almost resisted the attack of Suna Ninja on Mount Kikyo with the strength of the clan. The Uchiha clan suffered heavy losses. Even the old clan leader Uchiha suffered heavy losses. Bo Jusong also died in battle.

Uchiha has numerous military exploits and is fully qualified to participate in the election for the position of Hokage. The top management of Konoha also made a promise, and Uchiha just bravely participated in the war as a whole family.

Originally, Konoha planned to cross the bridge and find an excuse to deny Uchiha's nomination, but due to the sudden death of Orochimaru, the popular candidate.Completely breaking the political landscape of Konoha.

The death of Orochimaru completely dispelled Danzo's attempt to allow radicals to rule Konoha.At the same time, as a competitor, Hiruzen will not be happy because he

His plan was to "sit back and watch" and let Orochimaru fight the Uchiha, and then secretly use other means to win the "popular hearts" of Namikaze Minato.Now that it's better, the two tigers are fighting and one tiger is Uchiha. Hiruzen is worried that Namikaze Minato is too young and cannot suppress Uchiha.

The Battle of Kannabi Bridge fought by Namikaze Minato cut off the Iwa Ninja's transportation lines. It was actually a sabotage and guerrilla attack behind enemy lines. It was also inseparable from the support of Sarutobi, Nara, Yamanaka, Akimichi and other families.But Uchiha, as a family, fought hard against Suna Ninja in front of Mount Kikyo.

It is self-evident which of the two is stronger and weaker, and Bo Feng Shuimen does not have the upper hand in all discussions of military exploits.

For this reason, Hiruzen had to seek cooperation from Danzo, and the radicals lost their candidate. Danzo had no choice but to agree to support Namikaze Minato.

In this way, with the joint support of Konoha's top conservatives and radicals, Namikaze Minato and Uchiha Fugaku launched a campaign for the Hokage position!

On the other side, the Uchiha clan doesn't have many cards at its disposal. It's just a police force. First of all, civilian forces don't need to be considered. This was also the situation set up by the Nidaime, who took advantage of the principle that law enforcers are often hated by others. , coupled with Uchiha's own arrogant character, so civilians do not have much favorable impression of the Uchiha clan.In this regard, Uchiha can only seek the support of the family forces...

The Sarutobi clan, the Nara clan, and the Akimichi clan are staunch supporters of the conservatives, and this is impossible.

The Yamanaka Clan and the Aburame Clan are leaning toward the radical faction, but now that the radical faction has withdrawn, these two families have ambiguous attitudes, so they can try to contact each other.

The Hinata and Inuzuka families have always been neutral. The former has always regarded the Uchiha clan as a competitor and strives to be the most powerful family in Konoha. It is difficult to unite. The latter has no direct contact with the Uchiha, so they can test it out.

However, in addition to secretly contacting the family forces, Uchiha inevitably began to have Shunto's ideas again...

Uchiha settlement area, a luxurious mansion located in the central district.

Yayo raised his head and squinted his small eyes, looking at the gorgeously renovated mansion. A strong sense of jealousy flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "Huh! A mere junior actually monopolized such a large piece of land, and even built the house so well. It's so luxurious, how does this look like a place where ninjas live? It's like treating yourself as a local daimyo!"

Tie Huo also frowned and said, "Captain Fugaku, does this guy really need you to visit him personally?"

The two people in front of me were once candidates for the position of Uchiha clan leader. After taking the position of Fugaku clan leader, they also became members of the upper echelons of Uchiha.As a superior, it is inevitable that they will develop a blind and arrogant character. In addition, they rely on their elders and have never looked down upon young people like Shun Ren.

In their opinion, Shun is indeed somewhat powerful, but as juniors, shouldn't they obey the education of their elders? In addition, they are senior members of the clan and have a high status, especially Yayo, who is the deputy captain of the police force. , a truly high and powerful position!

Fugaku smiled slightly, and looked at the two people beside him with a trace of contempt in his eyes. He thought to himself, no wonder I am the leader of the clan and not them. Although these two people are not as strong as him, their ability to do things and manage things are not inferior to him. The biggest shortcoming is short-sightedness.

How could a person like Shun be measured against his mere qualifications and power?

Fugaku remembers the famous saying of his ancestor Uchiha Madara: Power is everything!
