Naruto: The Beginning of the Game

Konoha, the basement of the Uchiha clan shrine.

"Why did the old guy Sarutobi Hiruzen come back to power? Shouldn't the election for the fifth Hokage be launched?"

"That's right, that's right! These old guys are responsible for the safety of the Chuuriki, but the time of delivery was leaked. How can he still have the face to continue to be the Hokage?"

"The old guy Sarutobi Hiruzen is really greedy for power. Logically, the fifth Hokage should be contested by the clan leader Fugaku and Orochimaru."

"This time when the Nine-Tails was unsealed, our clan rushed to the front line. The old guy, the third generation, actually played such a trick. He abdicated and re-ascended!"

…

In the basement of the shrine, the ninjas of the Uchiha clan were excited, and pairs of scarlet Sharingans flashed strange red light in the dim basement.

Uchiha Fugaku stood in front of the ancestral stone tablet. After hearing the news, he was also very unhappy.

Even if Sarutobi Hiruzen recalled Orochimaru and held a new Hokage election, he would not be so indignant.

He did not expect Sarutobi Hiruzen to return to the position directly.

It is not like there is no one in Konoha who can take over the position of Hokage now.

"Huh~" Uchiha Fugaku let out a long breath and said in a deep voice, "Okay, calm down first. Now that things have come to this, we can only discuss the future path of the Uchiha clan again."

After Uchiha Fugaku said this, the scene was briefly quiet, and soon it became noisy again.

The people present whispered and discussed in a low voice.

They all knew that the Uchiha clan's bet on the Fourth Hokage was originally a very successful investment.

But with the death of the Fourth Hokage, this investment became embarrassing.

It was indeed successful, but not completely successful.

The original bet invested a lot of manpower and material resources. The Fourth Hokage has just been in power for a year, and it is not yet time to reap the rewards.

It can be said that the Uchiha clan's previous investment was a failure.

As time passed, the discussion in the basement of the shrine did not come to a conclusion.

In the current situation, Sarutobi Hiruzen has returned to power, leaving no room for the Uchiha clan to move too much.

This matter will definitely not have a result in the short term.

In the current situation, although the Uchiha clan has been treated unfairly, it is far from the point of a coup d'état in the original work.

The Uchiha clan can still survive now, and they think they still have hope of getting the position of Hokage through normal means.

Looking at the noisy clan members, Uchiha Fugaku sighed in his heart, feeling a little helpless.

Although they are not very capable, they are very arrogant. Some directly said that they would secretly kill the Hokage and then nominate the clan leader to take the position.

In extreme cases, they have already planned to provoke a war, and then let the Uchiha clan attack in the form of heavenly soldiers, defeat the enemy in one fell swoop, and then become Hokage with overwhelming military exploits.

The main thing is that there are quite a few people who hold this idea.

They really want to make progress!

It is barely understandable that the Uchiha clan has this idea now, after all, there are three Kage-level strongmen and a large number of Jonin in the Uchiha clan.

This kind of power can completely dominate the trend of a large-scale war.

"Okay, okay, let's do this for now." Uchiha Fugaku waved his hand impatiently, indicating the end of the meeting.

Then, he looked at Uchiha Ming and said, "Ming, you stay for a while."

Uchiha Ming, who was about to leave with the clan members, stopped when he heard this.

After a while, only Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Ming were left in the basement of the shrine.

After the clan members left, Uchiha Fugaku changed his previous seriousness and smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect Minato to die like this."

"Things are unpredictable. Who would have thought that Namikaze Minato, who is like the rising sun, would suddenly fall?" Uchiha Ming shook his head.

Uchiha Fugaku laughed helplessly: "With the death of Minato, the situation of our Uchiha clan has returned to what it was before."

"From today's meeting, Sarutobi Hiruzen will definitely let Danzo take power again and use him to deal with our Uchiha clan." Uchiha Fugaku said, looking very distressed.

At this time in Konoha, the Uchiha clan was too powerful, with three Kage-level strongmen and a group of jonin, and it was the first clan that deserved the title.

Originally, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not fully trust the Uchiha clan. In this situation, he must use people to check and balance the Uchiha clan.

"Danzo's methods are too despicable, why don't we kill him?" A cold light flashed in Uchiha Ming's eyes.

Now with the double Kamui in hand, Uchiha Ming has the confidence and strength to kill Danzo.

Uchiha Fugaku was shocked and shook his head repeatedly, said: "Danzo is not a weakling. He was first accepted as a disciple by the second Hokage and then became a member of his Shadow Guard. Even if his strength is not as good as Sarutobi Hiruzen, he is not easily defeated."

"Moreover, he has Roots who are not weaker than the Anbu. It will be difficult to defeat him in a short time." Uchiha Fugaku advised.

Looking at Uchiha Ming who was still tempted, Uchiha Fugaku continued: "We have already caught his handle. We only need the right time to make Danzo completely lose power."

Uchiha Ming touched his chin and said: "That's fine."

Since Uchiha Fugaku said so, let him try it. Even if he fails, he still has the strength to back him up.

Anyway, with the two Kamui in hand, he is still confident of killing Danzo.

He asked, "When does the clan leader plan to play the card of Danzo and Orochimaru's unauthorized human experiments?"

"No hurry, it's not the right time yet." Uchiha Fugaku's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he sneered, "How can the two cards of Danzo and Orochimaru's human experiments be used easily? At least after playing them, it will shake Sarutobi Hiruzen's position as Hokage, or even make him resign!"

"The clan leader is interested in the position of Hokage?" Uchiha Ming said in surprise.

Uchiha Fugaku was silent for a while, shook his head, and said, "I'm not that material."

Then he looked at Uchiha Ming with a sharp gaze, and said in a deep voice, "If there is a chance, I plan to push you to the position of Hokage!"

Originally, Uchiha Fugaku planned to follow the steps and let his eldest son Uchiha Itachi become a disciple of Namikaze Minato, and then accumulate merits step by step to run for Hokage.

But the sudden death of Namikaze Minato completely disrupted his plan.

At this time, Uchiha Fugaku found that he had no choice.

The Konoha high-level officials do not trust the Uchiha clan. Under normal circumstances, it is basically impossible for the Uchiha clan to become Hokage through normal elections.

At this time, only in special times can some special means be used to allow the Uchiha clan to ascend to the throne of Hokage.

The current Uchiha clan has the strength to push its clan members to the position of Hokage!

"Me!?" Uchiha Ming was surprised. This was something he did not expect.

Why was he appointed as the Hokage? Uchiha Ming was stunned for a moment.

He did not covet the position of Hokage too much. It did not matter whether he became the Hokage or not, as long as his research on the divine creatures went smoothly.

Uchiha Ming was quite satisfied with his current situation. There were not many things to consider.

After becoming the Hokage, there were many things to consider.

He was just afraid of trouble. As the saying goes, one should do his job.

When he was alone, he only had to be responsible for himself. As the Hokage, he had to be responsible for the people of Konoha and even the Land of Fire.
