"Please come in~," Uchiha Fugaku called from outside the house, as he heard the sound.
He cautiously opened the door to the Hokage's office and found Ryan sitting at the desk. Uchiha Fugaku approached Ryan and pulled two small figures towards him.
"Hokage-sama, these are Shisui and Itachi," he said, introducing the two children to Ryan. After speaking, he brought the two little guys in front of Ryan. Shisui and Itachi appeared like two young kids at that moment. Remembering their performances in the original book, Ryan believed that with a little guidance, the two of them would become excellent swordsmen.
"From today onwards, I will be your teacher. I will train you rigorously! It's too late to regret now," Ryan declared, staring into the eyes of the two children.
Shisui and Itachi seemed extremely excited upon hearing Ryan's words. They couldn't believe it at first when Fugaku told them that Hokage-sama wanted to accept them as his disciples.
However, upon arriving at the Hokage building, their disbelief turned into astonishment. And now, hearing that Ryan wanted to take them as disciples, their excitement couldn't be contained.
"We would love to be your disciples! Nice to meet you, teacher!" they exclaimed. Fugaku was delighted to see their enthusiasm. With this, the Uchiha clan became firmly connected to the Hokage.
Ryan smiled, satisfied with the two excited young boys. He then turned to Uchiha Fugaku beside him and said, "Then, I will be the one to teach them. Let them follow me every day from now on!"
Fugaku wholeheartedly agreed to Ryan's proposal. He couldn't wait to have the two children by Ryan's side. With the purpose of bringing Fugaku here accomplished.
Ryan didn't expect that his method of using force and persuasion on Uchiha would be so effective. But this was only the first step in inviting guests. By involving Fugaku, the most influential voice in the Uchiha clan, Ryan aimed to gain more favour.
If he couldn't win over Ryan, Fugaku's fate would naturally be the same as the other elders of Uchiha—beheaded. The position of the patriarch of the Uchiha clan attracted many contenders, and without Fugaku, someone else would take the role. In that case, Ryan would continue his operations and achieve even better results. He would ensure complete loyalty and acceptance from the Uchiha clan.
While thinking about these plans, Ryan couldn't help but touch his chin in satisfaction as he held the ninjutsu scroll given to him by Fugaku. "Let the bullets fly and don't deceive me! This must be announced!" he thought.
Meanwhile, Shisui and Itachi were still in a state of ecstasy. As two kids who had always loved Konoha, becoming disciples of the Hokage was a dream come true. Ryan laughed and said to them, "Alright, enough playing around. We won't practice today. I will take you to study."
With that, he left the Hokage building accompanied by the two excited youngsters. The Uchiha clan had now become a force under Ryan's control.
On the other side, within the Hyuga clan, a heated argument was taking place. Several elders of the clan were shouting at Hyuga Hiashi, accusing him of violating the clan's ancestral customs and stating that he was unfit to be the patriarch. The scene was intense, with headless corpses lying nearby.
Witnessing this, the members of the branch house, who had caged birds on their heads, gathered and discussed the situation among themselves. They wondered why the patriarch had directly involved outsiders such as White Fang. They believed that this incident would change the history of their branch house. They saw Hiashi's actions as a way to save the Hyuga clan.
In response to the elders' questioning, Hiashi had made up his mind. For the sake of his brother and the future of the Hyuga clan, he decided that the outdated clan system had to be abolished.
He pointed out that although the Hyuga clan had been around since the establishment of Konoha, they were not truly qualified to compete with the Uchiha clan. Hiashi criticized the laziness and lack of contribution from some members of the clan and expressed his support for the branch house members who worked hard to develop the family.
These words ignited the branch house members, who felt that being demoted to the branch house simply because they were born a few seconds later was unfair. They believed that if the main house members were wise, powerful, and dedicated to the family's growth, the branch house would have no complaints.
Seeing the branch house members becoming more spirited, the timid members of the clan who had been intimidated by White Fang's actions began to find courage. They stood behind the clan elders, afraid to speak out. This scene shocked the remaining clan elders, who started to question what they had been protecting all these years.
In the midst of the silence, a childish voice suddenly broke the tension. Everyone turned to look at the source of the voice and realized that the visitor was none other than the Master Hokage himself. Instantly, they all saluted their revered leader.
