Konoha Ninja Village, inside the Hokage office building.

As the head of a village, the three generations of Hokage are sitting upright on a soft leather chair at the moment. With a frown, he intently read the proposal document in his hand.

The content of this proposal is not the usual tedious and trivial matters that can be seen on a daily basis. Instead, after completely appeasing the dissatisfaction and restlessness of the people in the clan, Uchiha Fugaku, who was the head of the clan, submitted an application for the Uchiha clan to move from the edge of the village back to their old territory.

With Naruto's reconciliation and guarantee, and Fugaku looking at Naruto's face, he more or less restrained some of the arrogance of the Uchiha clan and chose the path of peace and tranquility with the village...... It stands to reason that Fu Yue's request can be regarded as reasonable, and there is no reason to refuse. Even the three generations of Hokage himself, for this request made by Fugaku, he raised his hands in his heart.

After all, don't forget that the Uchiha clan has had conflicts and grievances with the village over the years, despite mutual distrust......

But in the final analysis, the Uchiha clan is responsible for the role of the garrison of the Konoha Ninja Village!

Because of this, the territory of the Uchiha clan was relocated from a remote corner of the village back to the old territory in the center of the village. Not to mention for the time being, what a significant appassuring effect it will have on all the uneasy Uchiha clansmen. Just because of the relocation of the garrison headquarters, the Uchiha clan was able to quickly rush to the place of the incident as soon as they received the report, which definitely outweighed the disadvantages for the ordinary people of Konoha Ninja Village!

Of course, this result is quite good, but when it comes to implementation, for the three generations of Hokage, who is the head of a village and has to consider the overall situation, the resistance and troubles that need to be faced are not as easy and simple as they seem.

And under the repeated thinking and pondering of the three generations of Hokage, among the many difficulties that can be imagined, the most troublesome thing is not because any big family or force is prejudiced against the Uchiha clan and will vigorously oppose and reject it, resulting in the relocation proposal of the Uchiha clan cannot be implemented smoothly...... After all, after dealing with the group that served as a-stirring stick, and greatly suppressed the arrogance of the elder group that was almost a parasite. The power in the hands of the three generations of Hokage can be said to have returned to the peak state of the year! Even if a very small number of families protest against it, they can wave their hands and make the Uchiha clan successfully relocate without any impact!

As for the most troublesome part...... But it's quite ironic, and impartially, it happens that the ordinary residents of Konoha Ninja Village who have benefited the most from the previous vision of the three generations of Hokage, and then according to common sense, they should have raised their hands in favor!

As we all know, in this peaceful and prosperous world where many ninjas have paid blood and tears and exchanged their lives, this group of ordinary villagers live peacefully. But it is precisely because it is too well protected and lives too comfortably. Among the ordinary villagers in this group, some of the "rice worms" whose IQ went offline. It's like a keyboard warrior in Naruto's previous life, and he is easily driven by the direction of public opinion, which can be described as quite ignorant. And then under the peace of mind that I am weak and I am reasonable, I enjoy the hard work of the ninjas, as if I don't have a backache when I stand and talk, and I like to point fingers at others and chew the root of my tongue. So much so that unconsciously, it has become an extremely cheap and effective rumor-making machine in the eyes of many conspirators.

There is a way that three people become tigers...... The power of rumors, in a sense, even if they are as powerful as the Uchiha clan, cannot be parried......

After the Nine Lamas' rampage out of control that year, the Uchiha clan, who were strictly forbidden to fight on the front line by the high-level of the Konoha Ninja Village, became synonymous with avoiding and not fighting under the rumors that the group deliberately sow discord. And at the same time that he believed the rumors and forgot the credit of the Uchiha clan in evacuating the masses. While ignorant of the truth, these idiots began to babble and create topics based on their own brain cognition, and the rumors intensified.

It is precisely because of the existence of these people that even today, many negative labels such as cowards, greed for life and fear of death that are suffocated and burdened by the Uchiha clan have not slowly dissipated over time. On the contrary, it is like the "common sense" cognition that Naruto, who is just a child, as the reincarnation of the nine-tailed demon fox who will bring an ominous fate. Let this kind of misconception posted on the Uchiha clan slowly penetrate into the hearts of every Konoha Ninja Village villager with the tireless promotion of this group of people! So much so that once the three generations of Hokage announced that the Uchiha clan, who were "unmeritless" and "greedy for life and afraid of death" in the eyes of this group of people, would be relocated back to their original territory...... Because of his smug "common sense cognition", he was slapped in the face by the official. And then self-righteous assumption, this must be the case of the Uchiha clan colluding with the Konoha high-level to create a dirty deal. It was like a fried pot, and the protest and opposition picture boiled up in an instant. The three generations of Hokage almost don't have to think about it, they can make up for it in their brains!

After all, this kind of thing has happened more than once or twice in the life of the three generations of Hokage who has experienced strong winds and waves...... Just in Naruto's entrance exam, there happened to be a group of people who proudly decided that the children of their own family had been admitted to the school with priority over the children of various families. And in the case that the ending is diametrically opposite to the imagination, it is regarded as a shady existence, acting as a "righteous person" who has the courage to expose and protest. But in the end, he was ruthlessly eliminated by Tianzang's tough wrist, a fool who was directly and ruthlessly eliminated?

Of course, in these years, the arrogant and humiliated Uchiha clan has not tried to explain the truth to the outside world......

But as soon as it came, no one from the Uchiha clan rushed to the front line to stop the runaway Nine Lamas, which has become the "truth" that the villagers of Konoha Ninja Village have witnessed with their own eyes, and it cannot be refuted.

Second, although in that incident that year, the Uchiha clan, who were obviously the strongest fighters in the village, could only stay in the relatively safe rear and do the work of evacuating the masses, which was insignificant in the eyes of ordinary people. It's all because the Konoha higher-ups are worried that the Nine Lamas' uncontrollable rampage is related to the Uchiha clan's clansmen - in fact, their conjecture, on the premise that the Uchiha Obito is the culprit of this incident, really didn't wronged the Uchiha clan - and they are even more worried, although the Uchiha clan's writing wheel eye has an excellent effect on suppressing the tailed beast. But at the same time, it is inevitable that when the Uchiha clan is the culprit who caused the Nine Lamas' uncontrolled rampage, letting the Uchiha clan rush to the front line will not become a move to lure the wolf into the house. So much so that if the reason for this is that the high-level Konoha who deliberately ordered the restriction is the one who really needs to carry this cauldron.

However, even so, when the order was first transmitted, it was only relayed orally, and no formal documents were preserved. So much so that when the incident ended, the Uchiha clan, who had been brought to the rhythm by Tuanzang, wanted to open their mouths to defend themselves, and suddenly found that even if they were wronged, but in the absence of substantial evidence, they were like dumb people eating yellow lotus, and they couldn't say their bitterness!

What's more, there is a good saying, it is called spreading rumors with one mouth, and refuting rumors and breaking your legs...... In the absence of evidence, all the explanations of the Uchiha clan are all quibbles in the eyes of the villagers who do not know the truth. What's more, under the condition that the group of villains who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, fanning the flames from it, the villagers' misunderstanding of the Uchiha clan has not only not eased the trend of dissipation, but with the explanation of the Uchiha clan, it has become more and more serious. Even when spreading rumors on the street, being arrested by the Uchiha clan as a Konoha garrison force will think that it is a weakness of the Uchiha clan, and the Uchiha clan deliberately interferes to prevent the spread of the "truth" with their power. So much so that the Uchiha clan, who were speechless and arrogant, simply broke the jar and broke it, and they didn't bother to talk to this group of fools anymore. As a result, this rumor was spread more and more unscrupulously by the complacent fools as the Uchiha clan's acquiescence to their "crime" when the Uchiha clan remained silent.

Because of this, if you want everyone in the village to clear up the misunderstanding of the Uchiha clan and eliminate the difficulties that the Uchiha clan will face when they move back to their old territory. It is inevitable and inevitable to make the truth hidden behind that incident public!

In other words, once this plan is agreed, it is equivalent to letting the high-level rulers of the Konoha Ninja Village self-destruct their image and take over the black cauldron misunderstanding that the Uchiha clan has borne for them over the years!

And for those Konoha high-level officials who are used to being pampered and survived the purge previously arranged by the three generations of Hokage...... If in this special period, let them carry this black cauldron that has no benefit at all? Then, in the eyes of this group of people, they will definitely think that this is the move of the three generations of Hokage to cross the river and tear down the bridge by unloading the mill and killing the donkey. So much so that even in the end, the three generations of Hokage were able to forcefully order them to admit it by virtue of their authority. But in the days to come, we must always pay attention to whether this group of people will be resentful and make rebellious moves!

In this case, the question facing the three generations of Hokage is obvious - or, at the risk of hurting the trust of the Uchiha clan again, discuss with Fugaku whether he can give him more time. So that he can come up with a situation that does not hurt the face of Konoha high-level officials, and can make the entire Uchiha clan who have been wronged move back to the old site as they wish.

Either that, or it is fighting for another wave of power purges, causing the risk of turmoil in the foundation of Konoha Ninja Village. Regardless of any obstruction and opposition, the relocation proposal of the Uchiha clan was forcibly passed. And in response to this for more than a year, the Uchiha clan, under the leadership of Uchiha Fugaku, has silently given the trust and support of the three generations of Hokage!

"Ahhh......h Either way, it's not a good idea for the village right now......"

Thinking of this, the third generation Hokage, who had been thinking about it for a long time and couldn't come up with a solution that satisfied him, sighed faintly and put down the document in his hand. Then he freed his hand, closed his eyes and lightly pressed the acupoint on the bridge of his nose, so that he could be more or less awake. As if talking to himself, he muttered rather distressedly.

"Tsk, sure enough...... When they came up with that bad idea, I shouldn't have kept silent and let it pass so easily...... If it weren't for that wrong order, let alone all the troubles now, I'm afraid that the kid from Watergate wouldn't have been forced to sacrifice because he was isolated......

Obviously, the three generations of Hokage not only knew about the dilemma that the Uchiha clan faced back then, but was also one of the decision-makers involved......

It's a pity that the three generations of Hokage, who put the overall situation first, were at that critical juncture at that time, but like everyone else, they were worried about whether the Uchiha clan, who had the Sharingan, would be the mastermind behind this catastrophic event. And at that time, because the three generations of Hokage had retired, the position of Hokage was passed on to Bo Feng Shuimen. As a result, the power in his hands is completely incomparable to that of being the Hokage. The three generations of Hokage, who were worried, although vaguely in their hearts, sensed something was wrong with this decision-making proposal. However, because of the influence of their own concerns and the great shrinkage of power in their hands, the weight of words is no longer as decisive as in the past. So much so that even if you open your mouth to oppose it, it will not have the slightest impact on the outcome. So when the three generations of Hokage participated in the meeting back then, they could only follow the crowd and watch the people in power at the top of Konoha make this decision just in case.

It was precisely because of the inaction of the year that the next series of changes were regarded as their own responsibility in the eyes of the three generations of Hokage...... And this is also why Naruto was able to easily get the unconditional support of the three generations of Hokage when he was very arrogant in his own details. An important reason why the Uchiha clan was able to regain the trust of the three generations of Hokage despite having a deep grudge with the village.

"Alas...... Forget it, it's time to come, it's going to come after all......"

After a long silence, with a helpless sigh, the three generations of Hokage slowly opened their eyes...... But unlike the original slightly confused and tangled eyes, the clear and shrewd eyes obviously have made a decision. Then pick up the document again and prepare to write your signature. The action of writing hard is also invisibly in this, as if letting go of a heavy burden, it seems to be a lot smoother and easier.

"This was a misunderstanding caused by our wrong decision. There's no reason, there's no face, let them continue to bear it......"

In a low voice, in the minds of the three generations of Hokage, it was involuntarily that Naruto, who took the initiative to give up the opportunity to disclose his background during the secret conversation, chose to continue to bear the hatred and resentment of the villagers as the reincarnation of the nine-tailed demon fox. In addition to being apologic, I also felt more and more correct about the decision I made.

"Just like that silly boy...... The Uchiha clan has been carrying this black cauldron long enough......"

"It's time to give them justice."

It's a pity that at this moment, the three generations of Hokage, who are feeling relieved to break through the constraints of their own hearts, probably can't think of it......

His actions were unintentional, and he was about to provoke an old enemy to visit the Uchiha clan and even the entire Konoha Ninja Village!
