Playing as Passerby A from Naruto

Nanga Shrine.

As the place where the Uchiha family secret meeting is held, it is not only the ancestral hall of Uchiha, but also the starting point for all major decisions.

A circle of people gathered around, and everyone looked at the man sitting in the front with a serious look.

Uchiha Toyama!

Although this Uchiha ninja is only a family elder, but he has a large number of loyal subordinates, he is sitting cross-legged on the tatami with a sullen expression.

Although they had expected it, when the day finally arrived, all the ninjas who came here still felt extremely excited.

No one was talking, so the dull atmosphere was building.

Da da da!

The people sitting inside heard footsteps coming from outside, and they all opened their eyes and looked towards the door.

Those who took the position were all ninjas who supported Uchiha Toyama's views. They belonged to the radical faction of the family.

And the people they are waiting for here naturally belong to the conservative group headed by the patriarch Uchiha Toyama.

After the riot in the afternoon ended, Elder Toyama immediately invited relevant personnel to participate in the meeting, and even gave a direct and implicit notice of a fight. The revelation of this information made many people feel shocked, especially a few Insiders also know what happened to Elder Toyama.

crunch—

The heavy but not rotten wooden door was pushed open, and the ninjas led by Uchiha Fugaku stood at the door.

"Toyama, what do you mean?"

Only the clan leader is qualified to convene the Nanga Shrine meeting. Even the elders need the permission of the clan leader to allow people to enter the ancestral hall, which should be the important place of the family.

The one who spoke was naturally Fugaku. He looked at Fugaku who was facing him at this moment, with a little doubt and surprise on his face.

Although the two people's views are very contradictory, at least in some aspects they have not completely broken up. Now Toyama, the patriarch, has gone over his way to convene a large number of family ninjas for a meeting, and is directly beating him. s face.

"I need to know your answer."

Toyama kept his calm expression, but there was a heart-stopping violence hidden deep in his eyes. This was the heaviest state of mind of a father who had recently lost his son.

Hearing Toyama's words, Fugaku frowned and said, "Now?"

"Yes, now! Time waits for no one. I want to know your answer tonight."

Squinting his eyes, Toyama showed a bit of eagerness.

As he finished speaking, the ninjas sitting in the room all looked at Uchiha Fugaku standing at the door. The intimidating aura that came towards him made Fugaku's frown deepen and become more intense. It was the dissatisfaction of the ninjas who followed Fugaku.

"Elder Tomiyama! Are you threatening the clan leader?"

Toyama didn't answer, and continued to stare at Fugaku with that gloomy and deep gaze.

Uchiha Fugaku raised his hand to stop the subordinate who had just spoken, then a meaningful smile broke out on his face and said: "Do you think you can win?"

"Why not?"

As if he was sure of this answer, Toyama stood up immediately.

"Give me the answer now. There is not much time left for you!"

"I don't know where you get your confidence, but if your goal is to rebel, then my answer is still the same as I said before, I refuse to use such methods!"

"Does that mean there's nothing to talk about?"

"Yes!"

Silence fell in the shrine, and the ninjas on both sides seemed to smell a hint of oppression, and their eyes began to look at each other.

There were disagreements within the family, and there were conflicts between the ninjas belonging to the two sides.

"With the strength of your family against the entire village, do you really think you have a good chance of winning?"

Although the differences between the two have reached the point where they seem to be starting to take action now, Fugaku still feels uncomfortable looking at the other party's determined attitude at this moment.

He has never underestimated Uchiha's power, but because of this, he will not think that Uchiha can defeat the entire village!

Toyama used the effective forces within the family to attack the stone with eggs, but in the end it was the family that suffered the most tragedy.

He didn't want to see these ninjas who followed Toyama die in a meaningless place.

Even though in his opinion what was promised three generations ago was still just a pie, he still chose to believe in that peaceful but promising approach.

Therefore, he really hopes that the clan members headed by Toyama can stand beside him again to witness or wait for all that!

"You are still so stupid and cowardly!"

Toyama made a disdainful sound. As someone in the family who was very familiar with Fugaku, he knew Fugaku very well, but the more he knew him, the more he felt that he was not the same person as him, even though they were still so harmonious in the past.

"Are you worried about the third generation?" After thinking about it, Tomiyama asked again.

Konoha was at its weakest during this period. The high-end combat power of the village was almost negligible compared to its peak period. So Fugaku has maintained his current conservative attitude only because he has become stronger with age. Three generations.

The only person Toyama thought of who could provide obstacles was the Third Hokage. Apart from this old man, there might be other ninjas who were not weak, but they did not have decisive weight.

"Are you sure you can deal with him?"

"What do you think?"

When Toyama was asked this question, the expression on his face finally showed a moment of relief.

"When did you..."

Looking at Toyama again, Uchiha Fugaku finally showed a surprised look.

Because he saw Toyama's unique eyes.

kaleidoscope!

When Uchiha Toyama looked over with wide eyes, everyone here could clearly see the different patterns in his eyes, so they had some common sense and thought about what everyone said just now, and three words appeared in many people's minds. .

"Is it Kaleidoscope? Clan leader?"

A ninja standing behind Fugaku looked a little dazed. He was the one who just yelled at Fugaku, so when he saw such a scene, he felt that he seemed to have said the wrong thing before.

"Are you surprised?"

Looking at the reactions of the surrounding ninjas, Uchiha Toyama said this to the stunned Fugaku.

"When did this happen?"

Fugaku stared at Toyama's familiar yet unfamiliar eyes and asked in a low voice.

"Ok?"

These words made Fugaku, who was showing off just now, feel confused. He frowned and looked over, his eyes constantly moving on Fugaku's face, making sure that he didn't notice the slightest surprise on the other side.

"Kaleidoscope... you are not the only one who has it!"

Facing the other party's gaze, Fugaku first narrowed his eyes, and then suddenly widened them.

As a result, a kaleidoscope pattern appeared in Fugaku's eyes, which was different from the Toyama pattern but anyone with a discerning eye could instantly recognize it as a kaleidoscope pattern.

"what?!"

The surrounding ninjas seemed to be more surprised that Fugaku turned on the kaleidoscope than seeing Fugaku turn on his kaleidoscope.

Although Fugaku was once a genius in the family, he has always shown mediocre or even mediocre things in the years since he became the clan leader.

Therefore, compared to the well-known ambitious elder Toyama who turned on the legendary kaleidoscope, the patriarch Fugaku turning on the kaleidoscope was a more unexpected thing.

Everyone looked at Uchiha Fugaku who revealed his Mangekyo Sharingan with a strange look.

"You also turned on the kaleidoscope?! Then why..."

Toyama stretched out his hand and pointed at Fugaku, who was standing not far away, with a wonderful expression on his face.

After getting Fugaku's reply, he took the initiative to show the kaleidoscope just to hit the opponent's cowardly cheek with a mocking attitude. But after the operation, he found that he was the ultimate clown?

Fugaku had obviously turned on the kaleidoscope much earlier than him, but he had been holding back for so long that no one noticed.

"Individual strength is still too weak for the whole. Even with Kaleidoscope, I don't think it can compete with the village."

Fugaku knew what Toyama wanted to ask, so he explained immediately.

"What about those two pairs?"

If it was only a pair of kaleidoscopes that made Fugaku so scrupulous, then now that everyone has a pair, wouldn't it be more reliable if they all shot together?

Thinking of this, Uchiha Toyama and even the radical ninjas around him couldn't help but widen their eyes and express their inner thoughts with their eyes. Even many ninjas standing behind Fugaku looked thoughtful, maybe they thought this was a good suggestion. meaning.

"No, not two pairs!"

"What do you mean?" Toyama suddenly thought of the ninja that night. He thought that Fugaku had also been in contact with the other party, but it didn't sound like it from the tone. It seemed that there were some other ninjas that he didn't know existed.

"Stop the water!"

Fugaku gave a name.

Now he is showing off his cards, playing out all the cards he had hidden before, and then trying to continue to pull Toyama back, who was heading for a divergence.

As soon as the name Uchiha Shisui came out, Toyama's expression changed at first. He thought about the news he had received before that Shisui was attacked. He thought that it was another one of Danzo's actions against the young ninjas of Uchiha. Unexpectedly, Shisui But he is one of the hidden kaleidoscope ninjas in the family.

How old is he?

Toyama thought that he had accidentally turned on it because of the death of his only son, Shu, and Shisui was much younger than his son, Shu. This shattered some of the pride he had built up in a short period of time.

And the doubts in his heart were infinitely magnified.

With such a strong combat power, except for him as a 'newcomer' who has just opened the kaleidoscope, Fugaku, who has two pairs of kaleidoscope sharingan, acted so weak before, and now after seeing another kaleidoscope owner appear, he It seems that he has not changed his views. Why is this?

"I don't want to watch you lead your tribe to make meaningless sacrifices."

At the end, Uchiha Fugaku sighed.

"whispering sound!"

This sentence aroused various emotions in Toyama's heart.

The pain of losing a child exploded from the bottom of my heart in an instant because of Fugaku's neither salty nor bland tone.

His face suddenly turned gloomy, and Toyama let out a sneer.

"That means you still don't plan to join us?"

Fugaku didn't speak, but everyone understood the attitude he wanted to show.

"In that case, let's get out of the way. But even though you don't plan to act with us, you shouldn't be able to drag us back, right?"

After saying a few words, Toyama and the radical ninjas all showed disdain for Fugaku.

The meaning of what Toyama just said was not to let Fugaku do something that would hinder their follow-up actions.

Naturally, although Fugaku did not agree with Toyama's views, he would not do things that would directly lead to the failure of Toyama and others' actions.

He is two-faced.

What is double-dealing?

He will not take action on either the Sandai or Toyama side. Although he favors the Sandai, he will not help the Sandai fight against the Toyama side. Although he will not help the Toyama side, he will not create obstacles.

This is the situation within the family. Many radical ninjas can no longer change their personalities, and Toyama is one of them.

Do not break or stand!

He heard this word from Shisui, who in turn heard it from Sarutobi Tokigen.

He felt that the words suited Uchiha this time and were very appropriate.

After years of backlog, the atmosphere within Uchiha has become very contradictory and polarized, and he needs to take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of other opinions!

Of course, he is not a fool. The third generation promised that he would gradually delegate power to Uchiha and return Uchiha to the core of the village. He was not a three-year-old child who fully believed these words.

But he also knew that if the Uchiha remained so divided, and even some of them had great hatred towards Konoha Village, they would never be able to gain the recognition of the village again.

It’s not that he is obsessed with gaining recognition from the village, but this is indeed a path that allows him to gamble most things!

Uchiha had only two choices: gaining recognition from the village again or being destroyed. As for why the entire clan left Konoha?Don't be ridiculous, Konoha will not let such a powerful blood-stained family look at me, and even if they are lucky enough to escape from Konoha.Where else can Uchiha be fully accepted?

Fugaku chose to cater to the village and gain recognition again, while Toyama obviously chose another path. He wanted to get out of a narrow escape and almost never live that day.

As for what Toyama just said, he was actually tempted.

Three pairs of kaleidoscopes, even in the history of Uchiha, it seems that they have never been so powerful?

But he knew that he didn't have the determination to make this decision, and he knew that Shisui was not such a person either.

It is better to be more restrained and gamble on the promise of three generations instead of taking the whole family to win the weak chance of survival.

With a two to one situation, at least he would bet wrong in the future, and he felt that there was a chance of a turnaround.

Of course, if he could bring Toyama to his side now, he felt that he would be more secure in the future, but even Toyama among the radicals had no chance of redemption.

Therefore, he could only do such a very unloyalty thing.

Everyone said he was cowardly, but that was true.

But he is not really cowardly, but because he needs to consider more people. He hopes to find a way for more members of the Uchiha family who are not ninjas to survive.

"Get out of their way!"

Fugaku stepped aside to give a few steps, and then motioned to his subordinates behind him.

"Patriarch?"

Some ninjas frowned and moved out of the way while looking at Fugaku.

Uchiha Toyama did not continue to speak, and walked past Fugaku with the ninja who followed him resolutely.

Not paying attention to the strange looks cast on him by the tribesmen who left, Fugaku watched the group of tribesmen walking towards the dark front.

Sometimes, giving up something may seem a little hypocritical, but in the overall scheme of things it's not a bad thing.

Just like now, Fugaku feels that he has done nothing wrong, but he also knows what is waiting for Fugaku, but his reminder can only go so far.

You can never wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep.
