Chapter 304 The situation is tense

Namikaze Minato had already had a systematic understanding of Shangguan Mo.

The types and functions of the opponent's psychic beasts can be said to be quite distinct, and the psychic beast they encountered this time called the self-destructing fly is undoubtedly the "eye" of Yunin Village! It is a weapon used by the opponent to protect the defense of Yu Ninja Village and even the Kingdom of Yu!

Thinking of this, Namikaze Minato felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

When the other party has so many "eyes", any of their secret actions are exposed to the other party's eyes, and there is no secret at all.

But what makes him feel a little strange is that Shangguan Mo has such a high security awareness and deploys such a level of investigation on the border of Tang Country all the time. This is a bit incredible.

"Maybe it's just some annoying bugs! How can they be aggressive? Just bugs scare you so much that you run away in panic. It's really an embarrassment to the Konoha ninjas!"

An Uchiha ninja mocked.

"What did you say!"

At this time, the Konoha ninjas behind Namikaze Minato couldn't help it any longer. They glared at the Uchiha ninja one by one, and some even took out their own weapons.

Either a kunai or a ninja sword.

The situation instantly became tense.

Namikaze Minato raised his hand and turned to look at the Uchiha who was looking straight at him with sharp eyes.

"We are all companions of the same village. Don't you think it's a little too much to say this?"

"where......"

As soon as he uttered a word, the next moment he was kicked to the ground.

"Apologize."

Uchiha Fugaku took back his right foot and spoke calmly.

"...Sorry, I was too rude."

"Forget it, we are all ninjas from the same village. Don't say such hurtful words next time."

Namikaze Minato sighed and chose to reveal the matter.

Although this was not the first time he saw the unruliness of Uchiha ninjas, this was the first time he intuitively felt the bad character of the Uchiha ninjas.

"It's no wonder that the second-generation adults wanted to restrain them back then, but...now this restraint has turned into prejudice and even exclusion from all aspects. This is a bit too much..."

After all, they were all companions of the same village. Although Namikaze Minato felt that the character of the Uchiha ninjas was indeed a bit bad, he was not guilty of this. If the current confrontational situation could be changed, he felt that it was entirely possible for the Uchiha clan to return home.

After waving his people away, Fugaku looked at Namikaze Minato. Judging from the performance along the way, the other party undoubtedly has a very clear understanding of the mission objectives.

"Then what are you going to do next?"

"...There is no good solution for the time being. But don't worry, Fugaku-kun, I will do my best to help you!"

The friend's answer made Uchiha Fugaku feel a little bit embarrassed.

"Perhaps I am really too naive?"

He asked himself in his mind and couldn't help but feel distressed.

Since Namikaze Minato was so afraid of his target, he must be a very difficult character, so it was no wonder that he insisted on coming with him.

But when he thought about it, if the target was really that easy to deal with, the village's senior officials wouldn't have the current attitude of indifference.

Instead, they had already launched a large army to attack Tang Ninja. After all, the reputation of a big ninja village like Konoha is not something that a small Yu nin can trample on.

"Perhaps...with the power in our hands, it is no longer possible to complete this mission."

Namikaze Minato spoke softly, as if there was something in his words.

Uchiha Fugaku could naturally hear the meaning of giving up in his friend's mouth, but he had never been one to give up so easily.

They haven't seen the target yet, and it's not like the battle has failed, they've just been discovered on the enemy's border.

If he just led his clan members back in disgrace, then he, the clan leader, would have no shame in going down anymore!

"But......"

Namikaze Minato seemed to want to persuade, but finally gave up.

He just felt that if he persisted in his own way, some Konoha ninja would die because of it.

"Minato's character is a bit softer. Sometimes, the necessary sacrifices are actually very worth it!"

Zhuangruo glanced at Minato unintentionally, and Fugaku felt a little emotional.

Although the two people's personalities are relatively compatible, in some aspects, they are completely different types.

But thinking of this, he was suddenly stunned, and then a smile appeared in his eyes.

"However, this is the important reason why I will support him to become the Fourth Hokage. Only when such a guy becomes Hokage will the Uchiha clan feel at ease..."

The third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, has more and more negative voices in the village. Uchiha Fugaku can imagine that for the sake of his own reputation, Sarutobi Hiruzen will definitely choose to take the blame and abdicate.

As for those who want to become the Fourth Hokage, or those who are qualified to become the Fourth Hokage, it is actually very clear now.

The most ambitious in the village and the most demanding advisor to the Uchiha clan, Shimura Danzo. He must have some special thoughts about this position. But from Fugaku's point of view, the chance of the other party becoming the Fourth Hokage is not high, even lower than him, the Uchiha clan leader!

"Supporting him to become a senior member of the fourth generation, the ninja clan, and those members of the jounin class will definitely be less than those who support himself!"

Fugaku saw this very clearly and did not shy away from his clan's reputation and situation in the village.

Because the other party's reputation in Konoha Village is not much better than that of the Uchiha clan leader! Even worse!

"If Hatake-senpai had not died, it can be said that the position of Fourth Hokage belongs to him."

But he also understood that it was because the other party's prestige in the village was too high that the higher-ups were too wary of him, so they tried to kick him off the candidate list. But in the end it was self-defeating and the village lost a general in vain!

Then there are the Sannin who are famous in the ninja world. Fugaku, who is a competitor to these few, has also gotten to know them.

Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas, is undoubtedly the most vocal ninja now. Tsunade also has many supporters. Only Jiraiya has made it clear that he has no interest in the position of the Fourth Hokage.

Going down the list of possibilities, there are actually only three names left on the candidate list for the Fourth Hokage.

The commander-in-chief of the Kumogakure battlefield - Namikaze Minato!

The commander-in-chief of the Sunagakure battlefield—Shikaku Nara!

Konoha Police Force Captain—Uchiha Fugaku!
