A Shinobi Awakens - Chapter 53 Combating The Unknown
The 3 Jokyunin Finally stopped Grand Chariot and were now sprawled out on the ground trying to catch their breath. ‘The Amount of power behind that jutsu could wipe a small Island off the map yet, His Majesty casually tossed that at us.’ Chiyoko had tried his hardest to be a useful asset for The Kin., He trained to the best of his abilities yet he felt The King was in a league of his own that no amount of training would allow him to catch up too. ‘I must try harder!’ Even in the face of power that he could never hope to match his resolve never faltered in fact it was further ingrained into his mind and heart.
“You have worked hard in your training Chiyoko, Daisuke, Kazumi yet you still do not understand how to truly harness the power you all have. Your Chakra control is abysmal, Your hand signing speed is comparable to a snails, If i were to attack you with the intent to kill you would blink and be dead you have to work even harder! What is coming will be beyond the capabilities of the 5 Kage, only the Jokyunin and myself will be able to combat them do not let me down.”
They all listened closely to the Kings words, at this point holding their hand to guide them on every detail would not be helpful it would only create dependance. A Subordinate dependent on his or her superior has already given up on their own ability to solve problems themselves, What use would that be?
Ichizo transported the group to the Throne room where he assumed his position on the Throne overlooking all below. Daisuke brought all the materials needed to be reviewed to the King Ichizo read through them and signed off before he began introducing the next phase of his plans.
“I’m going to move the Uchiha clan to our Kingdom.”
“Your Majesty if I may.” Kazumi was the first to have an objection.
“Go ahead.”
“The younger members of the Uchiha are fine however the elders will be reluctant to leave the leaf. Not only that, with them will come a whole different view on the way we run thing that will face opposition from some within that clan. Also Your Majesty has stated that you are no longer an Uchiha, the world now knows this and the opposition you will face will be even greater than when you were a member of the clan. No matter your position those old people won’t just change their views on the way their clan should function.”
Kazumi brought up an extremely valid point plus there was still the possibility that one of the members of the Uchiha was collaborating with Madara due to Tobi’s death. If he were to just move the entire clan he could be inviting the enemy in, now of course Ghost could monitor the clan but that would only create a greater divide between himself and his former clan.
“Father is the Head of the Clan I doubt that he would allow the elders to act in any manner they wish within the walls of the Yamigakure.”
“Your Majesty, humans are fickle creatures that act on emotion. The Uchiha have been within the Leaf since the First Hokage and Madara created the village, this act caused an end to the Warring period. I have no reason to explain to you the history of the Uchiha however, due to the emotional connection between the Uchiha and the Leaf it is unknown how the elders will respond to being moved. They could even rebel.”
Ichizo Thought about it for a moment, ‘This is indeed the Case’. In his former life Ichizo saw many examples of something similar happening, People were moved from the land they considered home. The Elders within the group some were supportive yet others felt the conditions they lived in were enough however it was not home.
The Reason the first inhabitants of the Yamigakure readily agreed to the move is due to the War threatens their very existence. In the War entire clans were being wiped out in the Land of water just due to them having a Kekkei Genkai or Kekkei Tota, so when Father and Orochimaru arrived it was a glimmer of hope to all.
Previously in the Anime by this point the Uchiha would be planning a Coup which would lead to their extermination at the hands of Itachi. Without Danzo sowing the seeds of distrust into the ears of the Hokage, Without the Nine tails attack there is no reason for them to live in exile like before.
That was when Ichizo came up with a way to solve the problems of not having holders of the three Great Dojutsu which will eliminate the need to move the entire clan. This was actually one of the plans within Ichizo’s mind, The Military strength of the Yamigakure is formidable yet their is a few elements it lacks. The three great dojutsu: The Rinniegan, Byakugan, and Sharingan, with these the entire Dynamic of the Hidden Darkness would change.
“Daisuke, During the Shinobi-Samurai war how many Jonin died? And what were their names?”
Daisuke walked over to the Library and pulled out the record of losses they had on file handed it to the King then began to speak.
“271 Jonin lost their lives in the conflict, each of their names are recorded within this book. The Council had planned to make a memorial with all of their names inscribed, What do you have in mind sire?”
Ichizo flipped through the book and memorized all the Names written within before he spoke again.
‘These individuals have giving their lives in service of our great nation, Their loyalty cannot be questioned. Therefore, I will use them to find the snake Madara and bury him once and for all. With these eyes even the dead can be of use.’
“Daisuke, bring their bodies to the Yamigakure Evaluation compound in the Land of Demons, you have three days to accomplish this task. Chiyoko, as the Head of the Uzumaki clan it is your duty to make Nagato Uzumaki feel welcome within the Kingdom along with the members of the Akastsuki. Kazumi, Bring me Orochimaru, his service and research has elevated the overall productive capabilities of the Kingdom. He has proved his loyalties now it is time for me to reciprocate that by rewarding him.”
Step by step preparations were being made, yet were they a little to late?
