Naruto: Konoha’s Kanpu

Chapter 730: Anti-Kakashi Alliance

……

There was a lot of heated discussion in Naka Shrine at this moment. The Uchiha’s clansmen were discussing about the matter of Advisor, some were disbelieving, some were shocked, or some were ecstatic. Some of them were even chatting about the matter of selecting the next Hokage!

Fortunately, there are still calm people among the crowd.

A Uchiha clansman suddenly noticed a problem and asked loudly: “Clan Head-sama, you just said you were considering it, right? Why is that?”

The other clansmen were startled.

Yeah, once Fugaku become an Advisor, he will become village’s higher-up. From now on, the Uchiha Clan can bully others just like Danzo bullied them!

Why should Fugaku even consider it?

Faced with everyone’s puzzled gaze, Fugaku’s expression showed no fluctuations and was as calm as ever, giving people a psychological hint of ‘Ah, as expected of the Clan Head, there’s indeed nothing that can move the Clan Head.’

“After becoming an Advisor, I need resign from the position of Military Police Force’s Captain.” Fugaku explained in a deep voice.

Many clansmen look at each other, and immediately shouted: “Clan Head-sama, now that Shisui is back, just let Shisui take the Captain’s position!”

“Yes, Shisui is our Uchiha Clan’s strongest Genjutsu Shinobi, we are convinced if you let him be the Captain!”

Whether it is the radicals or normal clansmen, their recognition towards Shisui is quite high.

Fugaku glanced at Shisui, then shook his head slightly, and said: “Yondaime wants Kakashi to be the next Military Police Force’s Captain.”

The shouting stopped instantly.

“Kakashi?”

“Copy Ninja Kakashi?”

“I remember this guy was the one who got the Sharingan of our clan, right? That’s how he became known as the Copy Ninja!”

“Is it not enough for that Kakashi to take away our clan’s Kekkei Genkai, now he wants to take away our Military Police Force?!”

“Why is this happening?”

“Idiot, it’s because he is Yondaime’s disciple.”

“Yondaime let his disciple serve as our Military Police Force’s Captain, this…”

“I can't agree! The Military Police Force belongs to our Uchiha Clan. We must not let outsiders get involved in it!”

“Yondaime is doing this to steal the Military Police Force from our Uchiha Clan!”

“Now that Yondaime has gotten rid of Danzo, we are next!”

“We must not agree to him, Clan Head-sama!”

The radicals, who had made up for countless conspiracies, spoke enthusiastically, eager to get Uchiha Clan to go to war with Konoha’s higher-ups.

“Enough!”

Fugaku showed his majesty as the Clan Head, and the powerful aura instantly filled the entire shrine, silencing all clan members.

His majestic gaze swept across the clansmen one after another, and finally fell on Shisui.

“Shisui, what do you think?” Fugaku asked.

To be honest, after thinking deeply for a long time, Uchiha Fugaku wanted to be an Advisor. After all, he was bullied by Danzo, Koharu, and Homura for so long, that he couldn’t wait to get the position. He wanted to taste the feeling of bullying someone… Ptui, try seeing how small his vision before!

But handing over the position of Military Police Force’s Captain is very likely to affect his prestige as Uchiha Clan’s Clan Head!

Therefore, he threw the problem to Shisui.

‘Considering Shisui’s standpoint as an Anbu, he will definitely support Yondaime, and hope that I can serve as an Advisor…right?’

Unexpectedly, Shisui frowned at this moment, showing a dilemma.

From Hokage’s point of view, if Fugaku still holds the Military Police Force after becoming an Advisor, wouldn’t it just be another version of Danzo and Root?

Therefore, if Fugaku wants to become an Advisor, the Uchiha Clan must give up the Military Police Force.

But from the clan’s point of view, the Military Police Force obviously of extraordinary significance to the Uchiha Clan, and it would be a pity to give up like this.

As for refusing the Advisor Position… Shisui is not stupid. If Fugaku doesn’t want to be an Advisor, why bother asking him specifically?

“Shisui, don't feel any burden, just say what you think!” Fugaku sensed his hesitation and immediately gave him an encouraging look.

The rest of clansmen also focused their gaze and attention on him.

After pondering for a while, Shisui finally said: “I support any decision made by Clan Head-sama!”

“???”

Fugaku frowned uncontrollably: ‘Shisui… After he went to the Missing-nin organization for a few years, he has become a lot slicker.’

Fugaku is very disappointed!

After Shisui finished speaking, all clansmen focused their eyes and attention on Fugaku again, quietly waiting for the final decision.

Fugaku remained as still as a mountain. He pondered something in his heart before speaking in a deep voice: “I decided to take up the Advisor Position!”

“Clan Head-sama, you… …”

The radicals are about to speak, but Fugaku said first, “Although the position of Military Police Force’s Captain will be held by Kakashi, the positions below will still belong to you! Therefore, Whether our Uchiha Clan will be removed from the Military Police Force or not depends on your performance.”

See… this is called language skill!

Fugaku only admitted in one sentence that he gave up the position of Military Police Force’s Captain, but did not give up the Military Police Force itself. Even if the clan really lost the Military Police Force in the end, that would be their own fault. It’s because they did not do their job well and did not let the new Captain, Kakashi, be satisfied, and it has nothing to do with him, Uchiha Fugaku.

“Okay, that's the end of today's gathering. Let's all disperse!”

Fugaku didn't give everyone a chance to reflect, and directly ordered everyone to go back to their homes.

When the gathering ends, the radicals are still discussing in small groups, but with their position, they couldn’t resist the Clan Head at all. So they agreed to give Kakashi a good look after he took office, and it would be best to force him to resign voluntarily!

For this, they formed an Anti-Kakashi Alliance!

……

“Ah… ah… ahchu!!”

On the balcony, Kakashi sneezed at the black spotted cat on the left.

“Meow!!”

The black spotted cat was furious, and its hair instantly exploded and hit Kakashi with a kitty punch.

Kakashi reacted very quickly. While holding ‘Icha-Icha Paradise’ in one hand, he grabbed the black spotted cat with very high speed, then he rubbed his nose with the other hand, and secretly thought, ‘Who is talking about me?’

‘Is it Minato-sensei who just left?

After the black spotted cat calmed down and retracted its claws, continued reading as if nothing had happened, but when he looked down, he saw that the ‘Icha-Icha Paradise’ in his hand had been scratched to pieces.

“Sigh, this is a hardcover version!” Kakashi’s face was bitter.

“Meow~” The black spotted cat licked its paws proudly.

…

At the other side.

After Kanpū completed his promise to Mei, he went to find Tenzo, treated him to Ichiraku Ramen and then took him to a hot spring for a bath. At 8 o’clock in the evening, he took him to the Forest of Death.

“Brother Kanpū, I could clearly feel my improvement since I first fought with you, but recently, I seem to have hit a bottleneck …” Tenzo looked at Kanpū hesitantly, and there is a meaning in the words: ‘I don’t want to be your sparring partner anymore.’

Kanpū sees through it and can't be tolerated: ‘You only say this after eating ramen and soaking in the hot spring. Are you bullying an honest person?’

Kanpū drew out the Kusanagi Sword and rushed towards Tenzo: ‘Today, I will show you the anger of an honest man who can only works hard!’
