Naruto: Dual System Power At The Beginning

For Uchiha Clan to fall out with the Third Hokage or be targeted, this really is not worth it.

Yamanaka Inoichi also immediately said, "I also agree."

Even Akimichi Chōza, though he did not understand, could only follow his two old companions and say, "I also agree."

The Third Hokage felt somewhat dissatisfied in his heart. The other clans all quickly responded to support him, yet these three clans were still hesitating. Their loyalty to him was still not enough.

Among those present, the influential clans had already expressed their stance. Only the Hyuga Clan remained.

To actually not support the decision of the higher-ups, it seemed that this clan was also not very easy to manage.

At this moment, Hizashi also looked at his elder brother, his face somewhat grim. The higher-ups actually handled meritorious subjects in this way—it was truly too disheartening.

"Elder Brother, what should we do?"

Hiashi glanced at him. This time, he had truly seen the sinister intentions of the higher-ups. The Hyuga Clan was unwilling to speak lies with open eyes, so he slowly stood up and said, "I oppose this kind of proposal. Just relying on a complaint letter to revoke the Uchiha Clan's Guard duties is too frivolous. Do not make a big fuss over a minor issue."

"Moreover, the Uchiha Clan has just protected the village. If the village now treats its meritorious subjects in this way just because of complaints, it is truly too disheartening."

Hearing these words, the other clans were somewhat surprised. The Hyuga Clan was actually so bold, daring to oppose the four current high-level officials and stand on the opposite side of so many people.

This felt like courting death. Even some clans with a conscience felt that this person was truly too daring.

Even the Ino-Shika-Chō trio clans deeply admired this. A prestigious clan was indeed like this. Unfortunately, though their three clans had some strength, their ties with the Third Hokage were too close.

At this moment, it was impossible to oppose the Third Hokage and support the Uchiha Clan, speaking of so-called fairness.

Meanwhile, Fugaku had already been feeling stifled in his heart. Now that a clan had spoken up for him, he felt a long-lost sense of gratitude.

Regarding the Hyuga Clan, he originally did not have a particularly good impression. But seeing their current behavior, he could not help but develop a sense of respect.

Faced with this situation, Fugaku could not help but look at Ryosuke. Yet at this moment, Uchiha Ryosuke still appeared calm, surprisingly composed.

However, Fugaku could no longer remain calm. With so many people opposing the Uchiha Clan holding the Guard duties, if this were the past, they would certainly have been suppressed with no ability to resist.

But now, things were different.

He could only hope for Ryosuke's performance.

Hearing the Hyuga Clan leader's words, Danzo felt extremely displeased.

The most troublesome situation had still occurred. Now, the Hyuga Clan was clearly no longer obedient to the four high-level officials. One must know, these four represented the ultimate authority of Konoha Village.

If the Uchiha Clan were allowed to continue developing, they would surely turn around their reputation. In the future, even more people like the Hyuga Clan might stand up and speak for them.

That would be truly disastrous. So he immediately retorted, "Hyuga Clan Leader, your words are too disappointing. Such an understanding is truly too ridiculous."

"The Uchiha Clan indeed has immense merit, but can merit offset crimes?"

"It is clear that the two cannot offset each other."

"Among those present, who has not fought bloody battles for the village? Could they then, after committing mistakes, use their merits to cancel out their faults? Would the village still have order? Would it not fall into chaos?"

Immediately, many people began to express agreement.

"Lord Danzo is right. Merit and fault should not be offset."

"I also agree with Lord Danzo's words."

Hyuga Hiashi looked at these people and, for the first time, felt that they were truly detestable.

'Was this not just an attempt to suppress the Uchiha Clan? How could a clan that had made such great contributions to the village be subjected to punishment as soon as they returned? This was simply absurd.'

Danzo's face carried a smile. "Since the majority of those present respect the opinions of us high-level officials, should the Uchiha Clan not give an explanation?"

At this moment, Ryosuke slowly stood up, gazing at everyone present. "I feel like you all are a bunch of brain-dead idiots. Holding a stack of so-called complaint letters, you think you can make our Uchiha Clan give up the Guard duties? You are no different from morons."

"Has anyone verified the contents of these letters?"

The expressions of those present changed. To be insulted as brain-dead was truly excessive. This was utterly disrespectful.

Immediately, many people angrily rebuked him.

"Where did this little brat come from, daring to spout nonsense in this venue?"

"Lord Third Hokage, please immediately send someone to capture this person and imprison him in the dungeon."

At this moment, the Third Hokage was also furious. 'What an arrogant brat. No matter how strong he was, speaking such words in this kind of setting warranted punishment.'

He was about to scold Ryosuke and take the opportunity to imprison him, but then, he witnessed a shocking sight.

At this moment, Uchiha Ryosuke had already activated the Mangekyō Sharingan.

A pair of eight-pointed star pupils radiated a deterrent force that shook everyone present.

Everyone's expressions changed drastically.

Even those from minor clans who did not understand much could sense that something was wrong just from being stared at by these blood-red eyes.

Those who knew what they were looking at had their faces change even more, their hearts filled with shock, unable to stop themselves from murmuring, "Mangekyō Sharingan."

'Just like Uchiha Madara's eyes in the past.'

One could say that half of Uchiha Madara's strength came from the support of his Mangekyō Sharingan.

Unexpectedly, the Uchiha Clan now had someone who could awaken these eyes again. This was truly astonishing.

Even Danzo and the Third Hokage could not help but squint their eyes.

They could not fail to recognize these eyes. When they were younger, they had seen Uchiha Madara use these very eyes, able to fight against the so-called "God of Shinobi," the First Hokage.

Their battles were truly earth-shaking.

'Now, this brat had actually awakened the same kind of eyes.'

Even they felt a trace of fear in their hearts.

The Three-Tomoe Sharingan was not terrifying. What was terrifying was its upgraded form.

At this moment, Ryosuke's Mangekyō Sharingan locked onto those who had spoken disrespectfully toward him.

"Illusion Technique: Adding Paralysis."

The Mangekyō Sharingan's pupil power burst forth, unleashing an illusion far stronger than an ordinary Three-Tomoe Sharingan.

Those people immediately fell into the illusion.

Although Ryosuke did not enter into the illusion realm, he carried out torture punishment on them within the illusion realm.

He created several clones holding knives, stabbing in and pulling out, letting them suffer torment within the illusory space.

These few guys were truly too presumptuous.

Moreover, since they supported Danzo so much, they were probably Danzo's lackeys. 'If no punishment was given, they would not even know who they were facing.'

The Third Hokage, seeing this situation, immediately realized that these people had fallen into an illusion technique, and his expression changed, angrily saying,

"Uchiha Ryosuke, what exactly are you doing? This is a clan leader-level meeting, you must not harm others."

Uchiha Ryosuke, with his Mangekyō Sharingan, glanced sideways at the Third Hokage and said calmly, "I merely dealt with a few guys who dared to offend our Uchiha Clan. If no punishment is given, they might all think that our Uchiha Clan is weak and easily bullied. Does Lord Third Hokage have any objections?"

At this moment, Fugaku also slowly revealed his Three-Tomoe Sharingan, and then, as the three tomoe spun, he also activated his Mangekyō Sharingan, his pupils resembling shuriken.

Although his pupil power was insufficient, if it was just activation, it would not consume too much pupil power and would not carry the risk of blindness.

Ryosuke unexpectedly activated the Mangekyō Sharingan, completely and unreservedly shocking everyone.

Naturally, he also needed a helper.

He slowly said, "Uchiha Ryosuke is the decision-maker of the Uchiha Clan. Disrespecting him is disrespecting the entire Uchiha Clan. I hope some people will use their brains when speaking and had best show more respect to our Uchiha Clan."

The people present, upon seeing Uchiha Fugaku's pair of Mangekyō Sharingan, were once again greatly shocked.

'Yet another pair of legendary Mangekyō Sharingan.'

Even the Third Hokage's face became extremely grim. 'This old fox Fugaku had actually been hiding his strength all along—he truly harbored evil intentions.'

But what struck him even harder was that the Uchiha Clan had actually been concealing such a terrifying power. Previously, he thought that by holding the Hokage position, he had the absolute advantage.

Now, whether it was Uchiha Ryosuke's astonishing physical skills or these two pairs of Mangekyō Sharingan, they were all far too terrifying.
