Uchiha Mikoto took Saosuke and blended into the crowd.
Uchiha Fugaku chose to atone for his sins in the traditional family way.
Uchiha Itachi also fought alongside his father under the control of another god.
The father and son fought to the end and took all the blame.
From now on, Uchiha Sasuke and Uchiha Mikoto will not face hostility.
At least, that's the case on the surface.
Bunches of white chrysanthemums were placed in front of the mourning hall, and the lights flickered, reflecting the determined faces.
Qianye doesn't know what the future will bring, but he will continue to move forward.
...
After the memorial service, Qianye returned to the courtyard, picked up his pen, and began to write vigorously.
One manuscript after another was scrapped, and none of them were satisfactory.
More than an hour later, Qianye looked at the work in front of him and nodded.
"Uncle Huokang, please print this manuscript. Every family in Konoha must submit a copy. The printing must be completed before 4 o'clock in the morning."
Uchiha Kagura frowned slightly, he was running out of time.
It is not easy to print 300,000 newspapers in 8 hours.
"I try my best."
"Uncle Huocang, this manuscript is related to the development of the new plan, so it's not about trying your best, but doing it with determination."
The war by force has come to an end, but the war by public opinion has just begun.
The manuscript drafted by Qianye was the first shot in the war of public opinion.
If you don’t occupy the high ground of public opinion, it will be occupied by others.
"Coordinate with the printing factory in the village. If there is not enough, go to a nearby city to print. Remember, you must pay according to the market price."
"If you lose some money, you can make it back, but if you have a bad reputation, it will be extremely difficult to repair it."
Uchiha Huokang nodded: "I understand."
After the Sarutobi regime was overthrown, the entire family had no time to relax.
Qianye is not like this.
He didn't sit still, leaving his shadow clone to live in the house, while his real body set out for the empty area in the pouring rain.
...
Empty area.
The seat of the Ninja Clan.
This is a small city that was completely abandoned due to the war, and gradually became the home of cats.
An old woman named Mao Granny is the uncrowned king of the empty area.
She runs the only weapons shop in this ruins. The ninja tools are made with exquisite craftsmanship and are better than those sold on the market.
At the same time, the ninja cats under his command are also important sources of information for the Uchiha clan. They have a good relationship with the Uchiha clan and have cooperated with them for many years.
Therefore, due to emotions and reasons, Qianye should pay a visit after becoming the clan leader.
A ninja cat with a snow-white body and eyes as pure as sapphires squatted in front of the main gate of the empty area, looking up eagerly.
Her name is Suzune, and she is a Ninja cat who signed a psychic contract with her original self. She is also the dream cat of many single cats in the Ninja Cat clan.
The reason why she signed a psychic contract with Qianye is because she is an out-and-out beauty control girl.
When Qianye was filming the short film "The Rebellious Sarutobi Hiruzen", Suzune put in a lot of effort and summoned one ninja cat after another to cooperate with Qianye's filming.
Three black figures ran quickly through the night.
The leader was none other than Qianye, and behind him were two elite jounin.
These were the guards that Uchiha Kagura dispatched urgently after learning that Qianye was leaving the village for the empty area.
Their role is not to protect Qianye, but to stay and fight for Qianye when he encounters a powerful enemy that he cannot resist, and buy time for Qianye to escape.
Suzune's nose twitched slightly, her sapphire eyes showed surprise, and she quickly ran towards the leading black figure.
"Qianye, you're finally here." Lingyin jumped up, jumped onto Qianye's shoulders, swung her tail, and said happily.
"Have you brought my favorite drink?"
Polygonum is a kind of cat grass, its effect is similar to that of catnip, and it is a favorite of many cats.
Qianye took out a small bottle from his ninja bag and handed it to Suzune. She bit the bottle and her eyes suddenly narrowed with joy.
"Lingyin, where is Grandma Cat?"
Lingyin said vaguely: "I'm tired of staring at you."
"Come with me."
Lingyin jumped off Qianye's shoulder, and Meow took the lead.
The empty area is like a maze.
Without a ninja cat to lead the way, outsiders would definitely get lost in the chaotic alleyways.
Walking through the silent ruins, you can see dark shadows flashing quickly from time to time.
Under the reflection of the cold full moon, the painting style is inexplicably scary.
After walking around for more than ten minutes, Qianye finally arrived at the weapons store opened by Granny Cat.
A half-meter high ceramic lucky cat is placed on the wooden table. Everyone who opens the store door will notice this festive lucky cat at the first time.
Candlelights flickered all around, the furnishings in the house were old, cats jumped up and down from time to time, and the wind stirred up the candles.
Under the illumination of candlelight, these shadows suddenly turned into hideous and terrifying monsters.
Looking to the side, an old woman with dark gray cat-ear hairpins and gray hair was sitting cross-legged on a soft sofa, holding a pipe in her hand.
There were colorful cats crowding around her, and these cats were sleeping soundly with their eyes closed.
Further to the right, there is a girl about 7 years old standing.
He has brown-grey hair, wears an orange short-sleeved shirt, and is similar in age to Zuosuke.
She is Grandma Cat's granddaughter, Huan.
"Grandma Mao, Xiaohuan, Qianye is here." The ringtone jumped back onto Qianye's shoulders, holding her special drink carefully with two fleshy paws.
Qianye took out a thick and large book, and the girl's eyes suddenly lit up, staring intently at the colorful book cover.
"Xiaohuan, this is the encyclopedia of animals I bought for you."
"Thank you, brother Qianye." Xiaohuan took the "Encyclopedia of Animals" and ran back to the bed with a puff of smoke, lying down and reading it with great interest.
Grandma Cat put down her cigarette rod and looked at Qianye with many thoughts:
"I really didn't expect that Fugaku and Itachi would make such a choice. What I didn't expect even more was that you actually successfully led the Uchiha clan to destroy the Sarutobi clan and the Shimura clan. It's amazing."
Qianye shook his head: "The overthrow of the Sarutobi regime was not my fault alone. Without the whole family's sacrifice of life and death, I absolutely cannot do it alone."
Grandma Cat smiled and said, "You have changed a lot. I remember when I first saw you, you were like a reckless little calf."
"People are always growing and changing. Everything I have experienced has shaped me into who I am now."
The two of them secretly used their wits.
Granny Cat bluntly said that Qianye used to be like a calf, and she wanted to use her status advantage to overwhelm Qianye.
Because she saw many things from Qianye leading Uchiha to destroy the Sarutobi regime.
She wanted to maintain the original cooperative relationship instead of becoming a vassal of the Uchiha clan.
In the original work, the ninja cat clan was safe and sound after the Uchiha clan was exterminated.
This is because the relationship between the two parties is only a reciprocal employment relationship.
Uchiha can purchase information, weapons, etc. from the ninja cat clan by paying money.
Of course, because the two parties have cooperated for many years, they can obtain many discounts.
Now, Qianye wants to change this pattern.
This made Granny Cat instinctively resist.
"Grandma Cat, times are moving forward, the world is changing, the wave has arrived, we should choose to embrace it, what do you think?"
