Naruto: If I ask you to be Naruto, you will become a yellow-haired person?

Nanga Shrine.

On the dimly lit, ancient-style red wooden corridor.

A dignified and beautiful middle-aged woman walked with graceful, rhythmic steps.

Wearing a simple and elegant kimono, it accentuated her voluptuous and alluring figure even more.

Her beautiful, thick, and smooth black hair was tied to one side of her delicate shoulders.

Pure white socks clung tightly to her petite feet, faintly outlining the rounded and adorable curves of her soles and the full, rounded toes.

Adding a touch of purity and softness to the mature woman's charm.

A young woman with a serene face, black hair, and black eyes bowed and gestured, leading the way.

"Lady Mikoto, the clan meeting is about to begin. Please come this way."

Uchiha Mikoto smiled, her face full of mature charm, and returned the greeting with grace and approachability.

Following closely, she passed through layers of dimly lit corridors.

She had retired and stayed at home for many years and had no intention of participating in any clan affairs.

However, this time, her husband, Fugaku, had completely changed his attitude, from being initially firm to now wanting to surrender and yield to the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.

She feared that this clan meeting would provoke strong dissatisfaction from the clan's hawkish faction.

Given the Uchiha clan's usual inability to suppress their emotions and their tendency towards madness, a serious internal conflict and infighting was not impossible.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Mikoto couldn't help but reach out and press down on her restless, towering, and plump breasts, which were almost bursting out of her elegant and intricate kimono.

Her beautiful and delicate face carried a lingering trace of worry.

This was also the reason why she, who had not participated in clan affairs for many years, had made an exception to come this time.

Having one more Jonin who had awakened the Three-Tomoe Sharingan would more or less give her husband some help.

The clan meeting chamber in the shrine was already filled with people, all of whom were Uchiha clan members who had awakened their bloodline.

The not-so-large gathering place was packed.

Many Uchiha clan members were whispering to each other, their expressions serious and solemn.

They had obviously learned of Uchiha Fugaku's initial clan secret order to gather the clan members,

and the news that he was preparing to use a tough stance to confront the Konoha high-level officials and put pressure on the Third Hokage.

Uchiha Mikoto frowned as she entered, sighing inwardly.

But…

After Fugaku went to meet with Hiruzen Sarutobi, his attitude inexplicably changed again.

Her husband was passable as a clan leader, and he had worked hard for the clan for so many years.

It's just that he was too weak, strong on the outside but weak on the inside, and hesitant to do great things…

In the center of the ancient-style room, Uchiha Fugaku knelt upright.

Beside him sat several elders wearing dark kimonos, including Uchiha Yukinosuke, who had clashed with Naruto.

These people were quite old, with crisscrossing ravines on their faces. Their aged faces were serious, but they exuded a cold and extremely strong oppressive force, and their eye power was extraordinary.

They were the only remaining elders of the Uchiha clan, all of whom were powerful individuals who had awakened the Three-Tomoe Sharingan.

Uchiha Mikoto gently stepped behind Uchiha Fugaku and sat beside Uchiha Itachi.

After a long while, the noisy sounds in the hall gradually subsided.

Uchiha Fugaku clapped his hands, and his steady voice, befitting a clan leader, rang out.

"The Uchiha clan meeting begins!"

Then, Uchiha Fugaku's black eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp, scarlet light, and three tomoe rapidly rotated and connected in his eyes,

instantly transforming into a complex black and red pattern, with a black dot embellishing three rich tomoe!

An extremely cold, powerful eye power, accompanied by an atmosphere of suppressed coldness, instantly spread out!

Mangekyo Sharingan!

As if it were some kind of signal, everyone in the hall opened their eyes at the same time.

The originally dimly lit, slightly dark room.

Suddenly, it was as if it were brightly lit, shrouded in a flickering scarlet and enchanting light.

Dozens of blazing pupils flashing with three tomoe, with sharp eyes and a cold aura, spread out around.

The scarlet light in the eyes of the remaining hundreds of clan members with one and two tomoe Sharingan was slightly dimmer and duller.

Even Uchiha Mikoto, who had been through many missions and possessed extraordinary strength many years ago.

At this time, her mind was somewhat shaken, and her heart seemed to stop beating for a moment.

This… is this the Sharingan that our Uchiha are so proud of?!

Seeing this, Uchiha Fugaku also felt a sense of pride rising in his heart.

This time, he will definitely be able to help the clan completely get out of its current predicament and truly step into the high level of Konoha!

Behind him, Uchiha Itachi, whose face was full of solemn astonishment and obvious tear marks, did not have a similar state of mind as his parents when he saw this clan's foundation that crushed the other ninja clans in the village and was arguably the best in Konoha.

Instead, his heart was filled with anxiety and worry.

Previously, he had always known that the clan's strength was immense, and there were countless Jonin and Chunin within the Uchiha clan.

Moreover, as long as an Uchiha clan member awakened the Three-Tomoe Sharingan, they would definitely be among the best of the Jonin,

and even the clan members who had only awakened the Two-Tomoe Sharingan would definitely not be able to be dealt with by ordinary Chunin in the village!

But now, such a terrifying and extraordinary power was instantly displayed in front of him, almost making him feel suffocated, shocked, and frightened!

The Uchiha clan has always been semi-independent, almost completely out of the control of the village and the Third Hokage!

And such a terrifying and powerful force has repeatedly shown signs of internal rebellion!

It's no wonder that the high-level officials of the village are wary and vigilant against our Uchiha clan, suppressing us everywhere!

Uchiha Fugaku made a simple speech, then changed the topic and entered the main subject, sighing.

"Recently, I have been thinking for a long time, our Uchiha are still the Uchiha of Konoha after all! Even if…"

Halfway through, the few elders beside him suddenly frowned.

Their faces were as gloomy as a black pot, and they interrupted in a cold voice.

"Fugaku! What do you mean by that?!"

"Hmph! Fugaku! Do you want to collude with that old thing Hiruzen Sarutobi again, and let our Uchiha continue to be submissive under the tyranny of Danzo Shimura and Koharu Utatane?!"

"Breaking your word and lacking the demeanor of a clan leader! Your position as clan leader is still…"

Listening to these merciless words, the members of the police force wearing green vests standing beside Fugaku also spoke in an unkind tone.

"Please, elders, listen to the clan leader's words before discussing!"

At this moment, the audience was silent, and a pin could be heard dropping.

This was completely inconsistent with the news they had initially received that the clan leader had decided to unite with the hawkish elders to use force to deter the Konoha high-level officials.

Unexpectedly, the conflict between the clan's doves and hawks was so sharp.

They actually argued and quarreled in front of the clan members at the clan meeting.

For a time, everyone's faces changed uncertainly, and they didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

At this moment, an Uchiha clan member hurriedly entered the entrance of the family's secret room.

His face was pale and ugly, his expression anxious, and he shouted urgently even before he was far from the high-level leaders on the stage.

"Lord Fugaku! Something happened! Izumi has been captured by the Root!"
