**Chapter 3: I am Uchiha Masashi.**
Let's put aside the point of the Mangekyō Sharingan.
He needs to perfectly inherit all the memories of the original owner. Not to mention that he can completely exempt himself from the identity issues he was worried about before; the most important point is that he can fully integrate into his current 'ninja identity'!
Otherwise...
Suddenly,
From being an ordinary person in a previous life to becoming a ninja.
It would be really difficult for an ordinary person to adapt.
However, with this complete memory, he can naturally adapt to his 'ninja identity!'
But because of this,
He was also completely affected by the emotions of the original owner.
This is why, when he saw the little boy and girl kneeling in front of his couch the moment he opened his eyes, he looked so used to it, and he could feel at ease when he looked into the eyes of the old woman.
Uchiha Masashi!
This is the name of the original host of this body.
Now he has replaced everything of the original host, or, to be more precise, the two souls have completely merged. At most, it can only be said that his consciousness has become the main personality, but in fact, the personality and emotions of 'Uchiha Masashi' have penetrated the depths of his heart.
"But no matter what, this is the world of Naruto, and now I should be called Uchiha Masashi!"
It should be noted that Masashi's pupils revealed a hint of coldness. He slowly closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and opened them again.
His pupils had been restored to black and white.
He looked at the bright scene outside the courtyard.
"Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, let's fight. I will never allow the Uchiha clan to die in frustration like in the original book."
There is no way to retreat; there is no need to retreat anymore, especially when there are some things that cannot be reconsidered. Instead, let it go completely. For him, the only thing he needs to be sure of is that he is a member of the younger generation of the Uchiha clan.
Not alone.
Protecting himself and his family is the most important thing for him now.
Of course, he only has a rough plan on how to solve the current predicament of the clan. But no matter what the plan is, helpers are necessary. The hundreds of living forces in his clan and the dozens of elite ninjas are critical points.
Masashi greatly admires the words of a great man in his previous life: "Peace will survive if you fight for it, and peace will die if you compromise for it!"
This is the current situation of the Uchiha clan.
Masashi will not give up any possibility of peacefully resolving the conflict between the Uchiha clan and the Konoha high-level officials, but he also needs to be fully prepared for the worst situation.
Shisui may be a little different.
The traitorous son of the clan leader, Uchiha Itachi!
He is someone that he must be completely vigilant against, even though he is only five years old now and has not yet reached the point of being as morbid as in the original book.
But it is still necessary to take precautions.
At least, Masashi does not believe that Shisui will propose something as outrageous as Itachi.
No matter what decisions Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo make, you can at most say that they are cruel and dark, but you can never say that they are crazy and outrageous because they have never taken the wrong position from the beginning to the end.
They are the "enemies" of the Uchiha clan!
But Uchiha Itachi is different.
As the son of the head of the clan, he must sacrifice his life for the clan.
But you can't be a traitor who betrays the clan, right?
Even if you take a step back, it's a 'reasonable' choice for you to eliminate those crazy people who want to start a rebellion, and it's understandable to implicate some people with close ties. However, it's a departure from basic human nature to kill the elderly and young people in the clan who have nothing to do with the rebellion.
So, in the next series of plans, Masashi clearly understands that, in such a large Uchiha clan, no matter what he does, he must avoid letting Uchiha Itachi know!
Otherwise...
A future that awaits him must be one of death.
He needs to find like-minded people, try to persuade the head of his clan, and, even if there is only a one-in-ten-thousand chance, seek a peaceful solution from Sarutobi Hiruzen—until the coup is unavoidable!
During that day,
Masashi sorted out his thoughts and clarified what he should do next.
This included, but was not limited to, contacting the younger generation of the clan, Uchiha Fugaku, the clan leader, and, if possible, Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Hokage.
And to do these things,
Uchiha Shisui is also a threshold that cannot be bypassed.
It was just when Masashi sorted out his plan.
The aftermath of the Nine-Tails Rebellion had just been dealt with, and it was Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, and other Konoha high-level officials who couldn't wait to convene the heads of the major ninja clans for a high-level meeting on the fourth day.
At this meeting,
They proposed a "proposal" that seemed very normal but was extremely targeted at the Uchiha clan!
It can be said that, the moment he heard this proposal,
Uchiha Fugaku, who attended the meeting, subconsciously planned to refuse it.
But later, it was under the cooperation of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo that
The hesitant and soft character deep in his bones was revealed.
Even though Uchiha Fugaku was extremely reluctant to accept this proposal, he finally nodded and agreed.
After the meeting, when Uchiha Fugaku returned with a very ugly expression, he directly ordered all the elite Jonin ninjas in the clan, except those with patrol and security tasks, to gather at the clan's forbidden place—Naka Shrine—to hold a meeting of the Uchiha clan's internal high-level officials!
Although Masashi had opened the Mangekyō Sharingan on the night of the Nine-Tails Rebellion a few days ago,
In the eyes of the clan, Masashi was now just an elite Chunin with two tomoe Sharingans and was not qualified to participate in the clan's gathering.
Masashi did not take the initiative to express his desire to participate in this gathering. On one hand, he could probably guess what the content of this gathering would be. On the other hand, he had just recovered, and in the past two days, he planned to adapt.
However, the next gathering would start.
Masashi would win.
If he wants to gain the corresponding right to speak in the clan, the clan gathering is very important.
Of course, Masashi did not intend to expose his Mangekyō Sharingan so early; that is what foolish people do.
It is enough to just indicate that he has reached the three-tomoe level.
In the Uchiha clan, the three-tomoe Sharingan cannot be said to be 100% indicative of skill, but in most cases, it represents the strength of an elite Jonin ninja.
Masashi stayed at home and waited for the end of the gathering.
Sure enough,
After those clan members returned,
A piece of news that made almost all the members of the Uchiha clan angry spread among the clan.
They needed to relocate their residence again.
And this time, they had to relocate to the most remote edge of the village!
