‘Unexpectedly, someone did master it!’


    The master of the puppet noted Fugaku’s surprise, and asked with a proud smile, “What do you think of my proposal?”


    “All things aside, do you really think I care about your proposal?” said Fugaku in a cold tone, and asked as he activated his Sharingan, “Answer me, who are you? I advise you to be honest, otherwise, I don’t mind testing the endurance of your Soul using my Genjutsu!”


    The puppet shrugged, “Who I am is irrelevant, however, what I offer is a very good opportunity. I can help the Uchiha n get what rightfully belongs to them.”


    “Just you?” Fugaku snorted, and said, “And what made you think that Uchiha n needs the help of someone like you? If we want something, we can obtain it with our own power!”


    Although Uchiha n is eager for the position of Hokage, it has not fallen to the point that it needs to rely on a coward who doesn’t even dare to reveal his identity. Besides, Fugaku is not a fool, he can clearly see that the other party wants to use Uchiha n.


    “Tch!” Feeling the contempt in Fugaku’s tone, the puppet was displeased, “It seems that I will have to convince you with my abilities.” He decided to teach the arrogant patriarch a lesson and raised his hand in the direction of Fugaku.


    Fugaku was surprised that the puppet wanted to fight him, and prepared to use a Ninjutsu, however, before he could, something unexpected happened, his body was drawn towards the puppet with an inexplicable traction force.


    The puppet lunged forward and gripped the astonished Fugaku by his neck, and lightly whispered in his ear, “Patriarch of the Uchiha n, do you think you are tough? I can kill you right here right now and no one would ever know who killed you and how you died!”


    Captured by the puppet, Fugaku thought of activating his Mangekyou Sharingan and using Susano’o to fight back, however, he was once again taken aback when he realized that his Chakra was being absorbed by the puppet at an astonishing speed.


    ‘At this rate, I won’tst!’ such a thought passed through Fugaku’s mind as his body suddenly exploded into white smoke.


    The puppet was surprised and looked at his hand in surprise, “So that was a Shadow Clone, huh?”


    At this time, the real Uchiha Fugaku walked out of the shadows and looked at the puppet with a vignt expression.


    The puppet looked at the unharmed Uchiha Patriarch, and said with a smile, “Well that’s a surprise.”


    From the memories of Shadow Clone, Fugaku understands that this puppet is by no means ordinary and has some strange means, and dealing with it won’t be easy. Fugaku is quite sure that if he was in ce of his Shadow Clone, the situation would have be quite serious.


    Although there was the element of him being careless and underestimating the other person, the enemy’s methods are quite weird. Especially the ability to pull him and absorb his chakra! If he remembers correctly, the leaders of Akatsuki and Amatsukami have such strange powers!


    ‘Is this puppet sent by the leader of Akatsuki?’ thought Fugaku, he didn’t think that it would be Amatsukami since they were in contact with the Hokage faction.


    The puppet didn’t know Fugaku’s thoughts, he mistook Fugaku’s silence as intimidation and stepped forward as he said, “I will help you take the position of Hokage, you will help me take control of the Hyuga n. I believe we both are at an advantage and our goals don’t conflict, what do you think?”


    ‘Take control of the Hyuga n, is he from the Hyuga n? Did I mistake his identity? Is he not the leader of Akatsuki?’ thought Fugaku, a little confused.


    Seeing Fugaku’s thoughtful expression, the puppet added, “If not for the ‘Caged Bird’ restraining me, I would have never chosen to cooperate with the Uchiha n, I have the power, but ‘Caged Bird’ limits me. Uchiha n’s situation is simr, you people have the strength, however, you people have be nothing more than servants of the Hokage… I think cooperation is beneficial for both of us!”


    Fugaku considered the other party’s words.


    ‘Limited by the ‘Caged Bird’? It means he is from the branch family of the Hyuga n! The other party really seems to have enough strength, but he is restricted by the ‘Caged Bird’. If he tries to fight the main family, they can activate the ‘Caged Bird’ and end his life, so it makes sense that he wants to use the Uchiha n to fight the Main family of the Hyuga n. In return for the help, he is offering to help us too… The offer is not bad… but…’ thought Fugaku.


    Seeing Fugaku being silent, the puppet once again asked, “What do you think?” this time a bit impatient.


    ‘As expected, I can’t trust him, something seems to be amiss here.’ Thought Fugaku, and shook his head, “Although I am indeed the Patriarch of the Uchiha n, however, I can not make such a critical decision on my own. I will have to hold a n meeting and discuss this matter with my nsmen.”


    ‘What a waste of a Patriarch!’ thought Puppet inwardly, and after a while of silence, he said to Uchiha Patriarch, “One day… I will wait for your answer till tomorrow, if you don’t give me your answer by tomorrow, then I will have no choice but to find someone else to cooperate with.” Then immediately left the area.


    Fugaku thoughtfully looked at the position where the puppet stood until a moment ago, then left.


    …


    Jumping from one tree to another, the puppet smiled wickedly, ‘Heh, although not as nned, it went quite well.’


    Of course, he isn’t really interested in helping out the Uchiha n, he is just interested in inciting a conflict between the Uchiha n and the Hokage Faction. When these two sides will fight, both of them will suffer severe loss, and he would be able to make the most out of it.


    Although Uchiha Fugaku didn’t ept his proposal right off the bat, however, his words have indeed bewitched the Uchiha Patriarch’s mind, and he feels that the other party would definitely make a move.


    And when that happens, he ns to secretly inform someone in the Hokage Faction about Uchiha’s moves.


    This feeling of controlling others like chess pieces makes him feel refreshed and satisfied.


    In the beginning, he used Kumogakure to exact his revenge on the Hyuga n but failed. At that time, he couldn’t control the overall situation because of hisck of strength. But now that he has Giant Tenseigan, and theck of strength is no longer a problem, he feels that he can manipte the entire Shinobi World to his liking.


    As for his belongingness towards the n? That’s already something in the past, perhaps he will destroy the Hyuga n in the future if he feels like it, for now, he just wants to y with the world.


    “This is how a God should be,” he muttered in ecstasy, as he thought of the brilliant picture he will soon be creating of this shinobi world. He can’t wait tomence all his ns.


    Whoosh!


    At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of the puppet.


    As the puppet recognized the identity of the person appearing in front of him, his smile widened as he said, “Hyuga Kuroto, you are right on time!”


    That’s right, this was none other than Hyuga Kuroto who was on his way to the Uchiha n. Kuroto didn’t expect to encounter the puppet of the traitor on the outskirts of the Uchiha n.


    The master of the puppet was still bitter about Kuroto’s behavior. Now that Kuroto has appeared before him again, he decided to use this opportunity and teach him a harsh lesson. Something that Kuroto will remember for the rest of his miserable life!
