NARUTO- CH-135. Please grant my request!

"Lady Tsunade."

Itachi bowed deeply and said, "Please grant my request."

Tsunade sighed.

This method is completely beneficial to her.

She easily dealt with Danzo and the Root, and she also had reason to make Hiruzen abdicate, thus becoming the Fifth Hokage.

"And even if you don't agree, I will do it."

Itachi raised his head and said expressionlessly.

The Uchiha clan is extremely hawkish.

But he was more extreme.

"…"

Tsunade curled her lips.

What an arrogant Uchiha.

Two in one. There are also chapters updated during the day, no need to wait.

"I need time."

Tsunade was silent for a moment and then said.

If you want to become Hokage, you need to gain the support of the Daimyo and the Jonin.

As for the villagers' vote, she has nothing to worry about.

"I see."

Uchiha Itachi felt relieved.

Although Tsunade did not agree directly, the meaning was self-evident.

It just so happened that he also needed time to decide which people to take with him on the journey.

"One month."

Tsunade said after thinking for a moment.

"OK."

Itachi stood up and said, "It will officially start in a month."

Tsunade nodded.

At the door, she looked at Itachi in a trance.

How come she's suddenly going to be Hokage?

If you think about it carefully, there is an illusion of being put on a shelf.

Ever since Shiki suggested that she become Hokage, things have been going incredibly smoothly.

If it was this little brat who was behind all the planning, she would never believe it even if you beat her to death.

After much thought, the only explanation is that her identity and strength played a role.

To be honest, she was not prepared.

But now that things have come to this, there is no point in her running away.

Whether she agreed or not, Itachi would do it.

By that time, perhaps nothing would have changed except the sacrifice of the Uchiha clan.

Based on Tsunade's understanding of Hiruzen, he would never kill this old friend.

The most he can do is be dismissed from his post.

But given the nature of the roots, dismissal would have no impact at all.

After going around in a big circle, I'm back to the starting point.

Is this the Konoha that her grandfather, Hashirama, and her second grandfather, Tobirama, expected?

"Lady Tsunade, I would like to speak to Shiki alone about Sasuke."

Itachi suddenly remembered something and said.

"You guys chat."

Tsunade glanced at Shiki, and since she had no doubts, she nodded.

She thought Itachi was going to make arrangements for his funeral.

Because Sasuke will stay in Konoha, and Aburame Shiki is one of his only friends.

"Shiki, what do you think of Sasuke?"

After walking a distance away, Itachi stopped.

"No opinion."

Shiki shook his head and said, "Same as everyone else."

"Same?"

Itachi was a little surprised and said, "He is Uchiha."

He was well aware of how bad the Uchiha image was in the eyes of outsiders.

"He's not your typical Uchiha."

Shiki explained.

Itachi was speechless.

Judging from the current situation, this is indeed the case, but it is hard to say what will happen in the future.

He suddenly had an idea.

Leave Shisui's Kotoamatsukami to Uchiha Sasuke to ensure his purity.

"Isn't that the method you mentioned, the one you came up with?"

Itachi came back to his senses and asked.

"Didn't you come up with that?"

Shiki asked back.

"Really."

Itachi was slightly stunned, then laughed.

It's so easy to talk to smart people.

The main thing is tacit understanding.

"I have a question."

Itachi restrained his smile, sighed, and asked, "How can we change the reputation of the Uchiha clan?"

In his opinion, the most difficult thing was not to take away the hawkish members of the Uchiha clan, but to make the remaining Uchiha clan and the villagers live in harmony.

Because only in this way can it last long.

An Uchiha is always an Uchiha.

There is so much criticism that one day it will explode.

History will then repeat itself.

Such a problem is almost unsolvable.

Ever since the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, let the Uchiha clan take over the Konoha Police Department, no one has come up with a solution.

Including him and Shisui.

As for asking Shiki, it was purely because he had proposed that method before.

Although it is not the most perfect, it can resolve the conflict between the Uchiha clan and Konoha Village at the lowest cost and maintain temporary peace.

This is smarter than most people, or wiser.

"Konoha Police Department?"

Shiki asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Good."

Itachi nodded.

"Just decentralize."

Facing his expectant eyes, Shiki said casually.

"What's the meaning?"

Itachi frowned slightly and said, "The Uchiha clan will not share power with others."

"I'm not saying give it to others."

Shiki paused and asked, "Why would the villagers be afraid of the Konoha Police Department?"

"Because they made a mistake."

Itachi said after a moment's thought.

To be honest, in his opinion, there was nothing wrong with the Konoha Police Department.

Although the Uchiha clan is difficult to get along with, they will not show favoritism.

No matter who makes a mistake, they will be dealt with according to Konoha's rules.

"Should some mistakes really be punished?"

Shiki shook his head and said, "Besides, ninjas are naturally superior to villagers because of their strong strength. This will lead to a result where they dare not speak out or say they are angry but are unwilling to accept it. In the long run, a gap will naturally arise."

"I see."

A look of realization appeared on Itachi's face.

"Divide the Konoha Police Department into two departments and establish two sets of rules. The former is strict and the latter is loose. Ninjas will manage ninjas and villagers will manage villagers."

Shiki continued.

"This method... this method..."

Itachi was stunned and repeated it twice in his mouth, his eyes lit up.

After a few seconds, he sighed again, with an indescribable melancholy on his face.

If it had happened a few years earlier, perhaps we wouldn't be in this situation today.

Unfortunately, there is no if.

"Shisui will surely take you in as a close friend."

Itachi said with emotion, "It would be great if you were born in the Uchiha clan."

Become an Uchiha and then be chopped by you?

Shiki refused.

Even if it's Sasuke, you have to prepare Kotoamatsukami.

Not to mention the rest of the Uchiha.

When it comes to neurosis, the farther away the better.

If Shiki hadn't used the plot hook and hadn't had Tsunade as his strong support, he wouldn't have come into contact with Itachi.

"It seems that it will be almost impossible for Sasuke to become Hokage in the future."

Itachi smiled faintly and said.
