Chapter 20 - Chapter 20 Fugaku's Compromise!

Behind Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Yakumi, Uchiha Tekka, Uchiha Inaho, and the rest of the clan members were all glaring with wide eyes, their Chakra surging, ready to fight at any moment!

However, Uchiha Yashiro suddenly sighed and gently patted Uchiha Fugaku's shoulder.

"Clan Leader..."

"Don't be impulsive..."

"Shisui's stance is ambiguous, and Yagami has been suspended and is at home. It's really not appropriate to act rashly at this time..."

He lowered his voice and whispered softly into Uchiha Fugaku's ear.

Uchiha Fugaku gritted his teeth, but finally took a deep breath, and his fists relaxed.

"Qianyu's team can be temporarily Yagami."

"However..."

"I will absolutely not hand them over to your Anbu!"

Sarutobi Asuma's pupils contracted:

"So, you still want to shield them?!"

"Uchiha Fugaku, your actions make it very difficult for me to explain to Lord Hokage and the entire village..."

Uchiha Fugaku said: "I can guarantee with my life that no member of the Uchiha Clan is a spy from the Mist Village!"

"If you insist on interrogating someone..."

"Then start with me, the Clan Leader!"

Uchiha Yashiro and the others were greatly shocked.

"Clan Leader!"

"What, what are you saying..."

Sarutobi Asuma expression also changed.

Unexpectedly, Uchiha Fugaku would go to such lengths...

But isn't this even better?

He gave a cruel sneer: "Does Uchiha Fugaku mean he will undergo Anbu's interrogation on their behalf?"

"He truly is a Clan Leader who understands righteousness and cares for his clan members..."

"In that case, please come with us, Uchiha Fugaku!"

Uchiha Yashiro roared, suddenly blocking Uchiha Fugaku.

"If you want to take the Clan Leader, you'll have to step over my dead body!"

"That's right!"

"If you want to fight, then come on!"

Immediately, one by one, the other Uchiha clan members also blocked Uchiha Fugaku.

Sarutobi Asuma said coldly: "You said this yourselves..."

"Are you prepared?"

However, Uchiha Fugaku pushed the crowd aside and strode forward.

"Alright."

"Don't be impulsive, let me go with Anbu."

"Clan Leader, this..."

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. If it were those children..."

Uchiha Yashiro's heart trembled.

He understood the Clan Leader's meaning...

If he went into Anbu, unless Sarutobi Hiruzen truly wanted to start a war, Anbu couldn't really do anything to him.

But if it were Yagami's subordinates, it would be completely different...

Who knows what kind of cruel torture they would endure.

Anbu's interrogation...

Everyone understood what that meant.

Uchiha Fugaku not only wanted to save these clan members, but also wanted to put himself in the situation to personally test the attitudes of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Konoha's higher-ups!

"But, but..."

Uchiha Fugaku shook his head: "Elder Yashiro, while I'm away, I'll entrust the Uchiha Clan and the Police Force to your care."

"Clan Leader! Don't fall into their trap!"

"Clan Leader!"

However, Uchiha Yashiro ultimately nodded heavily.

Uchiha Fugaku smiled slightly and said to Sarutobi Asuma: "Let's go."

Sarutobi Asuma sneered, and several Root members immediately surrounded Uchiha Fugaku and escorted him away.

"Bastards! I'll fight you!"

"Let go of the Clan Leader!"

One by one, the Uchiha clan members were furious, and their crimson Sharingan even shone with light!

However, Uchiha Yashiro stopped them.

"Don't be impulsive!"

"Don't let down the Clan Leader's painstaking efforts!"

"Especially you, Yagami's subordinates!"

Uchiha Chiyu was a squad leader in the Police Force, but he only had seven or eight subordinates.

At this moment, they were more grief-stricken, hateful, pained, and despairing than anyone else!

Captain Yagami was suspended.

Aoki and Yamagaze were both severely injured and hospitalized.

And now, because of them, even the Clan Leader was taken away by Anbu!

This grief-stricken anger and unwilling despair even caused their eye power to increase again, unleashing power beyond their usual level!

Uchiha Yashiro's heart also trembled.

But he still looked at Uchiha Fugaku's back and sighed deeply...

"This is the Clan Leader's order!"

"No one is allowed to act rashly!"

"...Yes, Elder Yashiro."

Several of Yagami's subordinates exchanged glances, looked at each other, and were about to rush out.

Uchiha Yashiro said angrily: "What are you doing?!"

"Elder Yashiro, we... we just want to go to the hospital to visit Aoki and Yamagaze!"

"Don't worry, we won't do anything foolish..."

Hearing the names Aoki and Yamagaze, Uchiha Yashiro also sighed softly.

"Go..."

"Yes, Elder Yashiro."

Uchiha Yashiro suddenly thought of something.

"Don't tell Yagami about this for now!"

"Otherwise, with his personality, he will definitely cause a huge commotion!"

"...Yes, Elder Yashiro."

However, looking at their eyes, Uchiha Yashiro knew that these young people might not listen.

"Uchiha Yakumi."

"Here."

"Send someone to keep an eye on them, especially Yagami. Absolutely do not let him find out!"

"I understand, Elder Yashiro!"

Uchiha Yashiro looked around, and all the clan members' faces were filled with anger and unwillingness. This towering rage seemed about to dye the entire Konoha sky red...

He could only sigh deeply and shake his head.

...

Meanwhile.

Sizzle sizzle—

Yagami!

Qianyu put in his full effort, merging the released Lightning Release: False Darkness power with the samurai sword in his hand.

This was by no means an easy task.

What was needed was extreme control over Chakra nature transformation!

However, after days of continuous attempts and almost non-stop desperate practice, Yagami finally gradually approached the finish line.

Crackle!

Dazzlingly bright electric light wildly leaped and danced on the edge of the samurai sword!

This violent power not only turned the samurai sword into an undefendable Lightning Release Chakra Blade, but also possessed terrifying properties like breaking through defenses, paralyzing enemies, and even exploding upon impact!

If Uchiha Sasuke's Chidori Blade was a purely absolute increase in cutting and piercing power.

Then Yagami's move was a power of penetration and explosion!

Looking at the rampaging lightning and electric light on the blade's edge...

Yagami also smiled slightly with satisfaction.

"It's finally finished..."

"Merging the violent destructive power of Lightning Release: False Darkness and injecting it onto the blade..."

"Let's name it, Lightning Release Ninja Body Technique..."

"False Darkness Blade!"

In the past few days, even without the system's help, Yagami's strength had also advanced by leaps and bounds through his own diligent training, like a true 'study king'.

...

"My Chakra level and eye power have increased quite a bit, and both Lightning Release: False Darkness and False Darkness Blade have reached the Minor Proficiency..."

Yagami sensed the changes in his own strength, and a hint of joy rose in his heart.

Just then.

There was a series of urgent knocks on the door.
