Chapter 196 Uchiha asks for a fight

Just when the crowd started to get restless again, a white-haired figure fell from the sky.

"What happened?"

Che landed from the air and looked around and asked.

Fugaku said in his heart: "I came at the right time.", and at the same time said: "Kumogakure invaded our border, so a protest march broke out in the village. Lord Hokage ordered our police force to deal with the matter, but the people were unwilling to disperse. Come on, what should we do?"

Fugaku held his forehead and sighed, as if he was caught in a dilemma between the villagers and the Hokage.

This move successfully won the sympathy of a considerable number of villagers.

"Well, it seems that Uchiha has no choice this time."

“There are extenuating circumstances, there are extenuating circumstances.”

The onlookers naturally softened their attitude toward Fugaku and others.

Che immediately said: "I think these villagers are marching because of their love for the village! How can we stop these loyal people who love the village and the country?"

Che's words made most people in the parade nod.

Most of them were radicals incited by disguised members of the Roots organization.

Often the more radical these people are, the more they consider themselves to be patriots, so they particularly agree with Che's words.

The onlookers also thought it made sense.

Che continued to speak.

"Hokage-sama must not have understood the patriotism of our parade so he asked you, captain, to handle it."

"Yes, Lord Hokage must not know us yet, otherwise he would definitely support us!" Someone in the parade had already been led away by Che.

Hearing this, Che laughed secretly in his heart, turned around and faced the marching people and said, "I am willing to petition for the people and tell Lord Hokage about everyone's patriotism."

Everyone sighed with emotion: "Uchiha Che is really a kind person."

"What a good boy."

Fugaku pondered for a moment after hearing the words, and then stood up.

"The duty of our Konoha police force is to protect the village. Now that Kumogakure has invaded our border, we are also willing to fight. We will go meet the Kumogakure barbarians for a while, and we will make sure they never come back!"

Che and Fugaku sang in harmony, and the smell of medicine behind Fugaku and others were stunned.

However, Yaowei and others also understood that Fugaku meant to let Uchiha join the war and go to the northeastern border of Fire Country to expel the Kumogakure invaders.

Uchiha people have always been warlike, and except during the Ninja War, the ninjas of the Konoha Police Force can only stay in the village at other times. Naturally, they are eager to go to the battlefield and perform meritorious service.

So Yaowei and others also stood up and echoed Fugaku's words.

"We are willing to fight!" "We are willing to fight for Konoha!"

The people in the parade were also shocked by the reactions of the Uchiha in front of them.

"It turns out that Uchiha people are also so patriotic."

"It seems that we misunderstood before."

"Yes, we were just marching, but they went to the battlefield for real reasons. This is the real patriot!"

The surrounding onlookers also expressed their appreciation for Uchiha's invitation to fight.

Fugaku saw that the reactions of the people around him were in line with his expectations, so he said: "In that case, Che, let's go to the Hokage Building to petition now. Yao Wei, you lead the team and parade here to wait for our news."

Everyone had no objections to this arrangement.

Several people among the parade members took the opportunity to slip away, and Che was keenly aware of them.

"Are Danzo's people going to report to him? Haha, it's too late now."

Che sneered in his heart and went to the Hokage Building with Fugaku.

Arriving at the door of the Hokage's office, the two were stopped by an ANBU.

"Hokage-sama is discussing important matters with Danzo-sama, and no one else is allowed to enter."

Hearing this, Fugaku used all his aura to overwhelm the ANBU, "I am Uchiha Fugaku, captain of the Konoha Police Force. I have something important to report to the Hokage. Do you want to stop me?"

The aura of the evil-eyed Fugaku instantly overwhelmed the ANBU ninja who had just touched the threshold of jounin. It seemed as if Fugaku would suddenly kill him in the next moment, and he did not dare to move at all.

Fugaku then opened the door to the Hokage's office and walked in with Che.

In the office, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo seemed to be arguing about something, but when they saw the two coming in, they stopped arguing and looked at the two.

"Fugaku, Che, what are you doing here?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned slightly and looked at the two of them.

"Hokage-sama, I'm here to petition for the parade. They are all patriots of the village. Their parade should not be suppressed. This will hurt the people!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi heard this and scolded: "Who asked you to suppress them with force? They are also villagers of Konoha. What I mean is to let your Konoha police force handle it properly and resolve it peacefully."

Fugaku sneered in his heart: "It sounds nice, why don't you try to resolve it peacefully?"

But Fugaku's face showed an expression of sudden realization.

"I see. It seems that our Konoha police force has misunderstood the Hokage-sama's intentions. I will tell my subordinates to resolve the matter peacefully. However, there is one more thing I want to report to the Hokage-sama."

Before Sarutobi Hiruzen could ask, Fugaku took the initiative to report: "Kumogakure Village is determined to be a traitor. Seeing that our Konoha was suffering from the Nine-Tails Rebellion, he developed a desire to spy on us and repeatedly invaded our borders, causing unspeakable suffering to the people on our borders. .”

"This parade broke out at this time. Our Konoha Police Force was originally created to protect the village. Since Kumogakure Village has violated the border and harmed the interests of the village, we, the Uchiha clan, are willing to fight and drive out all the enemies. !”

After hearing Fugaku's words, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not answer immediately, but looked at Danzo.

Because Danzo came to the Hokage's office this time for the main battle, and it happened that Uchiha came to ask for a battle again, it was difficult not to associate Sarutobi Hiruzen with it.

"Could it be that Uchiha and Danzo have united?!"

At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen had a terrifying thought in his mind.

If this is the case, with Danzo's status as one person below ten thousand people in the village and the strength of the Uchiha clan, the largest clan in Konoha, I am afraid that his status as Sarutobi Hiruzen will be lost.

This startled Sarutobi Hiruzen.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen quickly figured it out, "No, it's impossible. Danzo has just offended Uchiha, and his attitude towards Uchiha is the same as that of the second generation teacher. It is impossible to unite with Uchiha."

Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen relaxed a little and said to Fugaku: "I can understand the Uchiha clan's feelings towards Konoha, but we Konoha are a peace-loving ninja village and never want war to break out."

"I will resolve this border friction in a peaceful way. You will not need to go to the battlefield."

"The first priority of the Uchiha and Konoha police forces is to protect the villagers in the village."
