The legend of Fifth Uchiha - Chapter 18
Chapter 18 Uzumaki
Naraku remained calm, put down the teacup, and said softly:
“No, it’s just that when you said you haven’t seen any of your tribe members in three years, I thought of the Root Organization. After all, the Root Organization is like that. Even as the leader of the Uchiha, I am deeply afraid of the Root Organization.”
Uzumaki had some guesses in his mind when he heard this, but he still planned to ask for a meeting with the Hokage tomorrow to inquire about the situation of his tribesmen.
As a clan leader, it is normal to worry about the safety of his clan members. I believe the Third Generation will understand.
Thinking of this, Xuanwo couldn’t help but think of the previous disaster of national destruction, and sighed:
“Well, in recent years, I have gradually found the scattered clan members and brought them back to the Konoha Shinobi. Our Uzumaki clan was a large clan with more than a thousand ninjas five years ago, but now there are only a hundred or so surviving.”
“I don’t know whether it is a blessing or a curse that I brought them to Konoha. Hey, maybe those in Konoha are all the surviving members of the Uzumaki clan.”
“Nao-kun, there is no need to sigh. Your people who have joined Anbu are lucky people. They may be on some long-term missions.”
Naraku comforted him, and couldn’t help but hold up the teacup, his eyes on his nose, his nose on his heart. Naraku himself didn’t believe what he said.
After hearing this, Xuanxuzhi sighed heavily again.
It is simply impossible to send a ninja who has just joined Konoha to carry out a long-term mission without even passing the probation period for loyalty.
Long-term missions are usually espionage or counterintelligence missions, so how could they be handed over to Vortex?
“Why have I never heard of the Root Organization?” Uzumaki Naoya didn’t think any more about it and decided to learn about the Root.
“Most of the ordinary villagers cannot get in touch with the Root Organization. The Root Organization only suppresses the ninja clan and searches for talented ninjas with excellent qualifications. Once they are targeted, they will be absorbed into the Root Organization… hehe.”
At the end, Naraku’s tone slowed down, and he couldn’t help laughing dryly, not wanting to say more.
Uzumaki had a serious look on his face.
“I understand. I’ll ask the Third Hokage-sama!”
Uzumaki Nao has already made a judgment about the clan members who joined Konoha and have not written to him for three years. The Uzumaki clan is the most recent ninja clan to join.
Although the tribe has a large number of people, their status is not very high, so they are easily exploited, just like when the Third Generation asked to provide some ninjas to join Anbu, the Uzumaki could not refuse.
The Jōnin organization given to the Uzumaki by Konoha only includes the clan leader Uzumaki Naoto and Uzumaki Naoto’s younger brother, Uzumaki Uzumaki. The others are basically mid-level Genin or students.
Most of the Uzumaki seedlings were either raised in their own clan or enrolled in ninja schools.
As for the young men, most of them entered Konoha Anbu. Uzumaki Naoki now felt deeply guilty for his clan members who were absorbed into Anbu.
At this time, Uzumaki was thinking about how to prevent himself and other clan members from being plundered by Konoha.
The Uchiha leader in front of them was obviously a force that could protect the Uzumaki.
“I hope to get a satisfactory answer.” Hearing that Uzumaki was going to ask the Third Generation, Naraku replied, and at the same time couldn’t help but shake his head slightly.
The Third Generation’s purpose and style are either to brainwash with the Will of Fire, or to pass the buck, or to drag things out. If you don’t know the Third Generation’s background, you will be fooled to death by the Third Generation.
Thinking of this, Naraku could not help but remind him: “Although criticizing the leader is not worthy of a subordinate, but Third Generation Master, hehe.”
Naraku didn’t want to say anything bad about the Third Generation’s purpose, but he couldn’t help but sneer when he thought about the Third Generation’s purpose.
Uzumaki understood what Uchiha Naraku meant.
“Since our Uzumaki clan has joined Konoha, we naturally have to contribute to Konoha. However, my clan members are too young and immature at the moment. Without powerful ninjas, what should we do?”
Many Uchiha ninjas are also included in the Konoha Shinobi organization. Uchiha is a clan with powerful combat power, and if you have a good relationship with the Uchiha.
By then, if we let the tribesmen form a team with the Uchiha ninja, the chance of survival will surely increase a lot.
The Konoha Shinobi organization is directly under the jurisdiction of Konoha and is vertically managed by the Hokage. These ninjas are usually supported in the form of missions issued by the Mission Office.
But sometimes there will be specific assignments, such as assigning Shimura Danzō to the Rain Country to fight Hanzo, and assigning Hatake Sakumo to the Wind Country to carry out surprise decapitation and sabotage missions.
The Sannin, the Anbu, and the ninja teams can be appointed, but the Uchiha clan and the Konoha Guard cannot be appointed.
At least that’s the case for now, Fugaku’s submission to Hokage is something that will happen later in the anime. At this stage, this has not happened yet.
Naraku heard the hidden meaning in Uzumaki Naoki’s words and said softly:
“You can join the guard force. Not only will I be the leader of the Uchiha, I will also have a position and a say in the Konoha Guard Force.”
Uzumaki Nao originally just wanted to propose a team with the Uchiha ninja, but he didn’t expect Naraku to be so generous and invite them to join the guard team.
Uzumaki couldn’t help but be stunned. This was a lucrative job. Not to mention the salary, at least he was far away from the battlefield.
Secondly, with Uchiha protecting them, Anbu or the Root organization would not dare to come and ask for people again.
“Hahaha, that’s very good, that’s very good, Lord Naraku, please have some tea.” After saying that, Uzumaki smiled and drank the tea in one gulp.
Uchiha Naraku raised his teacup, took a sip, and thought to himself, “The security team and the village management team are in need of some foreign personnel. This is perfect.”
Although the two departments are easily despised by villagers, they are actually far away from the battlefield.
The Uchiha clan has been doing this job for so long, and although they are hated and spurned by countless villagers, many ninja clans still envy them.
“Nao-kun, you’d better think carefully. After all, it seems that many of your Uzumaki clan members serve in the Sealing Class and the Barrier Class. If you get too close to the Uchiha, maybe…”
Naraku didn’t say the rest, if he got too close to the Uchiha, he would be suppressed by the Hokage faction, and then he would be kicked out of other departments, which would be embarrassing.
“Two members of the sealing team and two members of the barrier team, just four jobs, no big deal. With Lord Naraku’s support, why should we care about these?”
Uzumaki said nonchalantly.
“Yes, the security force can provide you with at least 30 positions, so you don’t have to worry about one or two people.” Naraku nodded slightly and gave a specific number.
Xuanxuzhi’s eyes suddenly lit up. Thirty positions, isn’t this a stable job for thirty people? The rest of the tribesmen just need to perform their tasks normally and take care of their own business.
If those who are outstanding or have potential can join the security force, there is no need to worry about the demise of the family.
After all, Konoha is the most powerful ninja village. Is it possible that any other ninja village organization could destroy Konoha?
No matter how the clan develops, as long as the security team is there, the family will not be destroyed.
Uzumaki Naoki was very upset and regretful about his decision to agree to the Third Generation’s request and send his people to Anbu, thinking that he had harmed those people.
The olive branch of the Uchiha Guard Force must not be missed. The Uchiha became the top of the ninja clan in Konoha because of their control of the guard force.
“Thank you very much, Lord Naraku! The Uzumaki clan is willing to serve Lord Naraku at all costs!” Uzumaki Naoki quickly expressed his loyalty.
“You’re welcome, Zhijun. You and I are good friends. By the way, Zhijun, I have also been dabbling in and learning sealing techniques in the past three years. Some sealing techniques are really obscure and difficult to understand…”
