Ask for leave and apologize.
I’m going to try to save the book’s outline…

In fact, many readers have noticed that the plot has had big problems since the “Uchiha Rebellion”, and this is indeed the case, because from then on, the author was basically in a state of having no outline when writing the subsequent plots…

The outline of this book underwent a teardown and reconstruction during the “Uchiha Rebellion”… No, it should be said that it was only torn down, and the reconstruction failed.

The most crucial issue is Danzo. In the original plot, Danzo and the Root did not perish in the “Uchiha Rebellion”. This group of people will be of great use in the subsequent plot, and it is related to whether the protagonist can achieve “military and political integration” in the Land of Fire and replace the daimyo to become the supreme leader.

But the author found that the readers have very low tolerance for Danzo, and they want to hang him on the gate of Konoha and cut him into pieces. If I don’t kill Danzo here, there may be big problems…

In addition, the feedback from Shisui’s plot made me tremble, so I gritted my teeth and replanned the plot to let Danzo die.

As a result, the whole body was affected by one move, which resulted in many loopholes in the subsequent plot…

Well… let me reveal the original plot direction.

(The previous outline has also undergone some minor changes.)
(For example, the plot of Itachi and Shisui was deleted, resulting in Itachi not being familiar with Shisui, and Itachi being unable to open the Mangekyō when Shisui died. However, the following are the original outlines, so Itachi still opened the Mangekyō.)
(There is also the strength of the protagonist. In the original outline, the protagonist was not that strong during the Uchiha Rebellion. He was basically just an ordinary Kage-level strength, and was a match for Sarutobi Hiruzen. However, as I was writing, I followed the idea of ​​letting things take their own course and not suppressing the protagonist, which led to some deviations between the protagonist’s strength in the plot and the original outline…)
………

Four years later.

As the Uchiha clan and the Konoha high-level officials completely broke off relations, the voices of a coup d’état within the clan became louder and louder. Even though Shiratori used violence to suppress it, it still had little effect. He knew that all this was because of himself – the 18-year-old Uchiha Shiratori already had the strength to face Sarutobi Hiruzen head-on, which gave the clan members strong confidence.

Shisui, who was blind in one eye, was very uneasy, but he sensed an opportunity – the clan leader Uchiha Fugaku, who had been checking Shiratori in the clan over the years, had an unclear attitude towards the coup and had been wavering between the “hawk” and the “dove”.

So Shisui secretly met with the Konoha high-ups, revealed his abilities as Kotoamatsukami, and proposed to use Kotoamatsukami to modify the will of clan leader Fugaku, making him completely stand on the side of the Konoha high-ups, and unite the forces of the Konoha high-ups to encircle and kill Uchiha Shiratori, and eliminate the Uchiha clan’s coup plan without a trace. However, the speed must be fast, because Shiratori may be able to remove Kotoamatsukami.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen was indecisive again. He didn’t know how strong Shiratori was now, whether the siege would cause great damage to Konoha, and whether he could defeat Shiratori.

However, Danzo Shimura had his own little ideas and he set his sights on Kotoamatsukami.

After the meeting, Danzo invited Shisui to discuss it privately tomorrow, and Shisui agreed.

But all this did not escape Shiratori’s eyes. After Shisui returned to the clan with a heavy heart, Shiratori officially launched his final plan.

The next day.

At dusk, Shisui met Danzo as promised in front of a temple in a maple forest. Danzo said that he had a way to convince Sarutobi Hiruzen, but he needed to borrow something from Shisui – the Sharingan that possessed the [Kotoamatsukami] eye ​​technique!

In fact, Danzo’s idea was to obtain Shisui’s Sharingan, and use [Kotoamatsukami] to change Sarutobi Hiruzen’s will, so that he would give up the position of Hokage to him. He would then have the power to read the Book of Seals, and use the [Impure World Reincarnation] in it to cooperate with the Konoha Anbu to massacre all the Uchiha clan including Fugaku and Shiratori.

Danzo’s sudden attack caught Shisui off guard. Shisui used a powerful illusion to subdue Danzo, but Danzo broke free from Shisui’s control with [Izanagi] and dug out Shisui’s only remaining Sharingan. With both eyes lost, Shisui could only barely activate the first stage of Susanoo, and after a brief resistance, he fled in embarrassment, with the Root ninjas chasing him from behind.

Shisui fled to the edge of a cliff and met Shiratori and Itachi who had been waiting there for a long time. Itachi was furious when he saw his best friend whose eyes had been gouged out, while Shiratori accused the Root of attacking their companions in the name of the Konoha Police Force, and killed all the Root ninjas who came to chase them with lightning speed. All this was witnessed by the ninja clan leaders who were invited by Shiratori to the woods not far away.

It turned out that as early as the day before, after Shisui returned to the clan, Shiratori invited the clan leaders of each clan to discuss the future of the clan. After the surveillance reported that Shisui had left home, he led the clan leaders of each clan along the route Shisui left to the place where he and Danzo had a secret meeting. Although the clan leaders were puzzled, they still chose to follow. When Shisui and Danzo broke out in a battle, Hyuga Hiashi, who had the strongest perception, noticed the chakra explosion in the distance. Everyone hurried over and met Shisui who was being chased by the Root halfway.

Shisui discovered that all this was within Shiratori’s expectations – it was just that because he had used [Kotoamatsukami] in an attempt to change Shiratori’s will, Shiratori chose to stand idly by in this incident, and used this opportunity to expose Danzo’s actions to all the ninja clans.

He lamented that Shiratori knew more about the darkness and filthiness of the Konoha upper echelons than himself, and apologized to Shiratori again for the [Kotoamatsukami] incident. After getting Shiratori’s promise that he would never betray Konoha, he knew that he had become the fuse of the head-on confrontation between Konoha and Uchiha. He did not want to see the family and the village killing each other, and with guilt towards Shiratori and disappointment in Konoha’s high-level officials, he chose to jump off a cliff and commit suicide.

Shisui’s death caused Uchiha Itachi to open the Mangekyō Sharingan.

The clan leaders were angry and worried about Danzo’s lawless behavior. The Root had begun to reach out to the ninja clan and was arrogant enough to attack their companions in the village.

Shiratori said that this time the Uchiha clan will not tolerate it and will make Danzo pay back a hundredfold.

He hoped that each ninja clan would promise that no matter what happened tonight, the Uchiha clan would not ask the other ninja clans for help, but they must choose not to help either side and remain neutral. The clan leaders all remained silent.

Shiratori, who had been well prepared, made two guarantees: first, according to the plan, he would most likely have a “friendly sparring” with the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen tonight, and he would show his ability to confront Sarutobi Hiruzen head-on. If he was defeated, the other ninja clans could stand on the side of the Konoha high-level officials at any time to attack Uchiha; secondly, he would give the ninja clan, and even all the ninjas in the village, a reason to stand idly by – Kotoamatsukami.

Danzo has obtained [Kotoamatsukami], and he may use [Kotoamatsukami] on Sarutobi Hiruzen, so all the orders of the Sandaime Hokage tonight may not be from his heart, and Shiratori is not committing treason tonight, but wants to remove the [Kotoamatsukami] that the Sandaime Hokage has been hit by. Of course, the truth is not important, it is just an excuse for the various ninja clans to refuse to carry out Sarutobi Hiruzen’s orders.

As night fell, the Uchiha clan recalled all ninjas and held an impromptu clan meeting. At the meeting, Uchiha Shiratori impeached the clan leader Uchiha Fugaku, pointing out his various dereliction of duty during his tenure, including allowing internal clan struggles, failing to gain public support for his prestige, groveling in front of Konoha’s high-level officials, which caused the family’s image and interests to suffer, and wavering between the village and the clan, etc. Shiratori’s words were supported by all the hawks, and as his strength increased, Shiratori’s prestige gradually surpassed Fugaku, so most of the neutrals in the bureau also chose to support Shiratori as the new clan leader.

After Shiratori ordered his men to bring up the body of Uchiha Shisui, the dove faction’s greatest confidence, and told them what happened in the afternoon, the dove faction completely gave up their illusions and expressed their willingness to support all of Shiratori’s decisions.

Shiratori finally revealed his plan – to wipe out the entire Shimura clan!
The Shimura clan is one of the oldest ninja clans in Konoha. They founded Konoha together with Senju, Uchiha, and Sarutobi. As Danzo Shimura became the assistant of Hokage, most of the Shimura clan’s ninjas entered the Root and became the core force of Danzo’s control of the Root. Over the years, the Shimura clan’s ninjas followed Danzo’s orders and attacked the Uchiha clan’s ninjas countless times. The Uchiha clan members had long hated the Shimura clan.

Shiratori also produced detailed evidence of Danzo and his Root clan colluding with the S-rank traitor Orochimaru. The evidence showed that Danzo would almost always send the most loyal Shimura ninjas when secretly contacting Orochimaru, so Shiratori pinned the blame of betraying Konoha and colluding with foreign enemies on the entire Shimura clan.

After the clan meeting, Uchiha Fugaku stopped Shiratori and Itachi, saying that he had never thought of betraying the clan, and that there was a hidden danger in Shiratori’s plan, and he would help Shiratori eliminate this hidden danger, and also do the last thing for the clan and Shiratori…

At midnight, the action began.

Except for Uchiha Itachi, who chose to stay behind to protect the clan’s land and was unwilling to kill, all the Jonin and Chunin of the Uchiha clan came out in full force. Along the way, they threw all the photocopied evidence of the Shimura clan’s betrayal of Konoha into thousands of households in the form of flyers. Among them were even some photos of Konoha’s missing people. In the photos, these missing people were tied to the laboratory table and subjected to inhumane human experiments.

The Uchiha clan’s action this time was not revenge in the name of the family, but to eliminate spies in the name of the Konoha Police Force.

The group marched towards the Shimura clan in a mighty manner, but were intercepted by Sarutobi Hiruzen who arrived in a hurry when they reached the Hokage Building (the Shimura clan was on the east side of the Hokage Building, close to the cliff with the Hokage Rock carved on it). Without waiting for Sarutobi Hiruzen to question him, Shiratori took the initiative and threw evidence to Sarutobi Hiruzen that the Shimura clan (Root) and Shimura Danzo had colluded with the traitor Orochimaru, abducted civilians for human experiments, and attacked their colleagues. He also questioned Sarutobi Hiruzen whether he would once again cover up for his old friend without any bottom line and organize the Konoha police force to eradicate the spy family this time.

At this time, the clan leaders and jonin of Konoha all arrived. In front of everyone, Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced over the evidence and was shocked, but he still ordered the Konoha police force to evacuate immediately as the Hokage, and he would handle the matter of Danzo.

Shiratori thought that was exactly the case, so he threw out his trump card – Danzo must have used [Kotoamatsukami] on the Hokage, otherwise why would he choose to shield Danzo, this crazy Konoha maggot, in the face of ironclad evidence!
In the name of helping the Hokage to remove Kotoamatsukami, Shiratori attacked Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The clan leaders of various tribes here shouted “Hokage, please break free from Kotoamatsukami’s control as soon as possible” and chose not to help either side. Some of the senior ninjas, including Kakashi, who learned that his father had died in a political struggle, had long been dissatisfied with Sarutobi Hiruzen under the guidance of Shiratori’s public opinion, so they chose to stand by and watch.

A small number of jonin and Anbu asked Sarutobi Hiruzen who was in the battle whether to besiege Uchiha Shiratori or attack the “Konoha Police Force” who were about to kill the Shimura clan, but Sarutobi Hiruzen hesitated and could not make up his mind.

Sarutobi Hiruzen is still the same Sarutobi Hiruzen after all, indecisive and always considering giving in when faced with difficulties. Back then, he could choose the extremely humiliating peace settlement in the face of Kumogakure during the “Baiyan Incident”, but now he will shrink his head and act like a turtle in order to prevent a civil war from breaking out in Konoha.

This is also what Shiratori is certain of: unless Sarutobi Hiruzen can defeat himself, and then go there in person as the Hokage to order the Uchiha clan to stop, otherwise he will acquiesce to Danzo’s action of slaughtering the Uchiha clan, just like in the original work – as the Hokage, it is impossible for him not to know about such a big thing, and on the night of the Uchiha clan genocide, not a single patrolling Anbu passed by the Uchiha clan.

The Uchiha clan can be destroyed.

Of course, the Shimura clan can also be destroyed.

Sarutobi Hiruzen’s delay in giving orders was actually a kind of tacit approval – the premise was that Uchiha Shiratori could compete with Sarutobi Hiruzen in battle.

The Five Kage-level battle between Uchiha Shiratori and Sarutobi Hiruzen officially broke out in Konoha Village. As screams came from the direction of the Shimura clan, the battle became more intense.

Uchiha Shiratori’s advantage is the Mangekyō Sharingan, powerful strength and chakra far superior to Sarutobi Hiruzen, while Sarutobi Hiruzen relies on the summoning beast Sarumo and unparalleled combat experience to not lose in the battle, and even caused Shiratori a lot of trouble. The sky turned pale, and the screams of the Shimura clan gradually stopped.

All the men and women, young and old of the Shimura clan, except for Danzo Shimura who was hiding in the root (the elite ninjas of the Shimura clan had been killed by Shiratori when he was chasing Shisui), were slaughtered by the Uchiha ninjas, and the Shimura clan was declared exterminated.

(Shimura Danzo never showed up, and the severely weakened Root was unable to stop it.)
The battle between Shiratori and Sarutobi Hiruzen also ended at this moment. During the battle, Shiratori’s power and Susanoo made Sarutobi Hiruzen in a state of embarrassment, and Sarutobi Hiruzen’s various attack methods also made Shiratori almost constantly activate Susanoo, which seriously consumed his chakra and pupil power. When neither side used their trump cards – Shiratori had never activated the left eye’s [Daikotsuhi], and Sarutobi Hiruzen had not used desperate forbidden techniques like [Shiki Fuujin].

Shiratori claimed that this was just a sparring match and a consultation with the Hokage, and during the sparring match he confirmed that the Hokage was not hit by the Kotoamatsukami illusion.

The Shimura clan had been destroyed. In order to avoid civil strife in Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that he had to give “legitimacy” to this action. He showed his indifference as a politician.

There is solid evidence that the Shimura clan colluded with rebel ninjas, kidnapped civilians, and attacked their colleagues, and they have been wiped out.

The Shimura clan acted in the name of Shimura Danzo. Shimura Danzo was not aware of this but bears leadership responsibility. He is dismissed from his position as “Hokage’s Assistant” from today on.

Although the Shimura clan was labeled as rebels, it should be the responsibility of the Anbu to wipe them out. The action of the Konoha Police Force was clearly an “overstepping of authority.”

So Uchiha Fugaku came late and did the last thing for Shiratori and the Uchiha clan during his term as clan leader – he admitted that the Konoha police force had exceeded its authority and said that everything was his order. From now on, the Konoha police force will be disbanded, and he will accept Konoha’s investigation and endure the calamity of imprisonment.

At this point, the Uchiha clan demonstrated their strength, but because the Shimura clan was also a ninja clan, the Uchiha’s massacre of the Shimuras made the other ninja clans more in awe of the Uchiha clan, but also developed a deep fear of them, which made the fragile alliance between the ninja clans headed by the Uchiha clan exist in name only.

The action was clearly led by Shiratori, but it led to Uchiha Fugaku becoming a scapegoat and being imprisoned, causing the young Sasuke to blame everything on Shiratori’s frame-up and began to hate Shiratori.

After the Shimura clan was exterminated, the Uchiha clan and the Sandaime Hokage reached an agreement, with both sides making compromises and concessions to avoid civil strife in Konoha.

As the leader of the incident, Shiratori decided to leave the village and travel at the suggestion of his mentor Uchiha Setsuna, in order to downplay the impact of the genocide and maintain the superficial stability of the Uchiha and Konoha high-level officials.

………

In fact, there are not many changes in this section.

Fugaku did not become a traitor, Danzo did not die…

The main thing is the strength of the protagonist. The protagonist is not that strong in the original plot, so he is still afraid of Sarutobi Hiruzen and the major ninja clans.

In the previous “Baiyan Incident”, the script that Sarutobi Hiruzen got was based on Emperor Wen of Wei, Cao Pi. Just like Cao Zihuan, who attempted to become emperor so he compromised and made concessions to the aristocratic families and implemented the “Nine-Rank Official System” with a pinch of his nose, Sarutobi Hiruzen had to make concessions to the ninja clan if he wanted to maintain the stability of his position as Hokage.

Sarutobi Hiruzen could become Cao Pi, but Shiratori could not stand the fact that Konoha under his rule had turned into the Eastern Jin Dynasty where “the king and the horse shared the world”…

Shiratori rose to power with the support of the ninja clan. If he did not want to become the “agent of the aristocratic family” Sima Yan, or the even more cowardly Sima Rui, he would definitely reduce the power of the ninja clan and fight against various clans.

Fortunately, this is a world with supernatural powers, and personal strength can replace many things.

I actually wanted to write about the political struggle in Konoha Village, but my writing skills were not good enough, so this part of the plot was deleted from the outline…

The real problem is the subsequent plot, which is the “fire country seizure of power” after the Konoha collapse plan and the premature outbreak of the Fourth Ninja World War…

………

After Sarutobi Hiruzen died, Shiratori became the Fifth Hokage and led the ninjas to wipe out the Root that night. Knowing that he was doomed to die, Danzo finally acted like a “Guardian of Konoha”. He ordered the Root to lay down their weapons and be killed to avoid internal friction within Konoha.

Shiratori said that Danzo and the Root would definitely be eradicated, but he had a plan to allow Konoha Village to control the Land of Fire. If the plan succeeded, Konoha would no longer be constrained by the daimyo and nobles.

Danzo readily agreed. As the root of Konoha, he made his final contribution to Konoha…

Not long after, a piece of news exploded the ninja world: the new Hokage Uchiha Shiratori killed Shimura Danzo, and the Root ninjas collectively defected. They fled to the capital of the Fire Country, placed all the daimyo and nobles under house arrest and massacred them, then burned down the mansions of the daimyo and nobles, took the Fire Country daimyo and nobles hostage and fled out of the city to an unknown place. The Fire Country was in chaos.

The Root Ninja announced the abolition of Shiratori’s position as Hokage in the name of the Daimyo. Shiratori said that he would do his best to rescue the Daimyo and the nobles, but he took no action.

The Fire Country’s daimyo and nobles were forced to send people to secretly contact Shiratori and grant the Hokage the power to act at his discretion. The Fire Country, from top to bottom, were all under the control of the Hokage, and they would save them at all costs.

So Shiratori, holding the order of the Daimyo, led the Konoha Ninja into the capital and ordered the Konoha Ninja to take over the political affairs of the Land of Fire. While a large number of officials were massacred by the Root, he placed Konoha personnel into various departments and successfully “discovered” and “eliminated” the Root. However, the Daimyo himself and most of the powerful nobles were also killed by the Root in the chaos.

On the pretext that the mansion in the capital had been destroyed, Shiratori brought the newly-appointed daimyo and nobles to live in Konoha Village, and refused to return the power with various excuses.

The Fire Nation has completely entered Konoha’s one-man rule.

The Kage of a village replaced the Daimyo as the actual controller of the country. Konoha’s behavior made the Daimyo of other countries extremely panicked. While condemning it, the countries decided to unite and launch the Fourth Ninja World War to wipe out Uchiha Shiratori, who had rebelled against the Tengang, and Konoha together…

The Fourth World War broke out, and Konoha once again fought one against four. Shiratori relied on Orochimaru’s research results to upgrade the Mangekyō to the Eternal Mangekyō. After continuously transplanting special Hashirama cells, his body gradually turned into a pseudo-sage body.

The powerful Shiratori defeated and killed the high-end combat forces of various countries in a crushing manner. The Akatsuki organization also took advantage of the chaos in the ninja world to capture the tailed beasts…

The defeated countries surrendered to the Fire Nation, ceded territory and paid compensation, and established Shiratori’s leadership position at the Five Kage Conference.

………

Does it look familiar? Yes, this plot is based on Cao Cao welcoming back Emperor Xian of Han and moving the capital to Xu County.

But in this plot, no one is doing the dirty work that is not worthy of being shown on the stage, because Danzo and the Root have already died…

Originally, the idea was to let Orochimaru take over, but the protagonist lacked the means to control Orochimaru, not to mention that Orochimaru had more important scientific research tasks.

Not only that, there are a lot of various bugs – for example, when Kabuto and Orochimaru both join the protagonist, no one from the Akatsuki organization will be able to be reincarnated, and Madara and the Impure World Army may not be able to come out…

Actually, it is a good solution to blame Danzo for Akatsuki’s Impure World Reincarnation, but the problem is still there. This old man is already…

(Sometimes I find that Danzo is still somewhat useful. No matter how bizarre the blame is, it seems to become reasonable when it is placed on him…)
So the author wrote this plot in a very painful way, with the character’s hair falling out in clumps, and he didn’t come up with a good solution until the Chunin Exam arc.

I changed the outline too impulsively…

During this period of time, the author will take a leave and try his best to re-plan the outline, but I don’t know if there is still a chance to save it…

I would like to express my sincere apologies to all the readers who have supported this book.

sorry! !

Sorry!!! (;Д`)
