Reborn with Steve Stand

Chapter 119: Steve Chapter 118

In Fang Mo's plan, Shisui definitely could not be allowed to remain.

However, the current timeline was still early. Although there were conflicts between the Uchiha clan and the high-ranking officials in Konoha, Shisui had not awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan. This meant Shisui couldn't harm Fang Mo at present.

With this in mind, Fang Mo decided to deal with the Uchiha clan first.

Although the Uchiha clan had its share of crazies, Fang Mo was, after all, their ancestor, Uchiha Madara. He believed that with just a few words, they would switch sides and surrender.

That's what Fang Mo initially thought.

However, it wasn't until he encountered the Uchiha clan's leader, Uchiha Fugaku.

Fugaku was a middle-aged man who seemed serious and reserved. Upon receiving relevant information, he stood at the entrance of the Uchiha clan's residence, silently waiting for Fang Mo's arrival.

Unlike the reception with Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Fugaku didn't summon the elite members of the clan but chose to personally welcome Fang Mo.

After meeting Fang Mo, Fugaku didn't say much, only inviting Fang Mo to his home to discuss the recent developments of the Uchiha clan.

His proposal sounded reasonable, so Fang Mo naturally agreed.

However, once they arrived at Fugaku's home, he suddenly activated his Mangekyou Sharingan, and a cold confrontation ensued with Fang Mo.

"You're not Uchiha Madara," Fugaku intently stared at Fang Mo. "Tell me, who are you?"

"Oh?" Fang Mo raised an eyebrow, maintaining his usual demeanor. "Do you think I'm here to steal your insignificant clan leader position, young brat?"

"Uchiha Madara would never have such an attitude towards his own clan members."

Fugaku stated, "Ever since Uchiha Madara was denied the order to leave Konoha with you, he resented the Uchiha clan. If you were truly Uchiha Madara, you would have killed me on the spot."

"Back then, I did resent you all because you were my fellow clan members who failed to comprehend the greatness of my ideals."

Fang Mo explained, "But things are different now. I have attained the status of a deity, and the Uchiha clan is merely like ants and weeds to me. Would you... resent a weed on the ground?"

"Then allow me to show you the power of a weed."

Fugaku declared, rushing towards Fang Mo and slashing at him with a kunai.

Fang Mo didn't even bother to dodge.

With his current level of defense, traditional weapons in the ninja world couldn't penetrate it.

As expected, Fugaku's kunai struck Fang Mo's neck, but it felt like hitting a piece of steel, and the force even made Fugaku's hand go numb.

"Huh?!" Fugaku was startled for a moment but immediately activated his genjutsu, and his Sharingan spun like a windmill.

However, before his genjutsu could take effect, Fang Mo vanished from his original position in a flash of black light.

Fugaku suddenly felt a chill, instinctively using his Body Flicker Technique to move away from his original spot. However, a terrifying gravity suddenly struck him, causing him to stagger and half kneel on the ground, and a few dark brown thorns quickly bound him like a rice dumpling.

From Fang Mo's charge towards Fugaku to binding him with the thorns, the entire process took less than ten seconds.

"Is that all?"

After dealing with Fugaku, Fang Mo looked at him coldly. "You're just a weed, not even worthy of being my warm-up."

However, what surprised Fang Mo was that even though Fugaku was bound, he raised his head sharply. "You are indeed not Uchiha Madara!"

"Weaklings always find excuses for their failures."

Fang Mo said calmly.

"If you were Uchiha Madara, you would confidently use the Sharingan to counter my genjutsu," Fugaku said directly. "Within our Uchiha clan, using genjutsu to defeat the enemy head-on is the perfect way to deal with adversaries. Even Uchiha Madara would not be an exception, but you didn't even use your eyes. Your Sharingan is fake!"

"That's because I possess an even more powerful force."

Fang Mo said, and his crimson eyes transformed into purple Rinnegan. "This is the eye of a god, even the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan can't compare to one percent of its power."

"What about your Susano?" Fugaku asked, "If you were really Uchiha Madara, you would remember the second paragraph of the inscription on the stone tablet at the Naka Shrine. Our Uchiha clan's artifact, the Gunbai(Fan), is still in your hands. You wouldn't have lost it, right? When you left the Uchiha clan, you left three clan precepts behind. Do you still remember them?"

"..."

Hearing Fugaku's words, Fang Mo's expression darkened.

Why does this old guy have to go off-script like this?

"Can't say anything?" Fugaku stared at Fang Mo intently. "You may deceive the others in Konoha, but you can't fool us in the Uchiha clan..."

"Alright, I'll stop pretending!"

Seeing Fugaku's expression, Fang Mo's demeanor also changed abruptly. "Since you already know... I won't continue this act!"

With that, Fang Mo emitted a white light, transforming back into his original appearance.

"Yes, I am from the famous Happy World! The dual-leader of the troublemaker duo from the Starry Sky Planet! Codename 'Happiness Immortal'! I was posing as Uchiha Madara, and this Sharingan is indeed fake. But this broth I drink... ahem, getting off-topic."

Fang Mo coughed and continued, "Someone asked me to pass a message to you. Uchiha Madara, that old bastard, is indeed alive... and your Uchiha clan is about to face a big problem. The Hokage of Konoha has prepared a devastating disaster that could wipe out your clan. The blame for this disaster will be placed squarely on the Uchiha clan. At the same time, Danzo is plotting to take your Sharingan."

"Why should I believe you?" Fugaku asked, still puzzled by Fang Mo's sudden shift in demeanor.

"As you have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, you must have read the inscriptions on that stone tablet, right?" Fang Mo smiled. "When Uchiha Madara read it, he suddenly contracted a terminal illness. He bit off a piece of flesh from Hashirama Senju and kept it in his mouth, allowing himself to be killed by Hashirama. He then used the Izanagi to revive using Yin-Yang Release. Eventually, he escaped to the outside world and transplanted the flesh into his chest, evolving the Rinnegan before dying. Now, he's preparing to overthrow the ninja world."

Hearing Fang Mo's words, Fugaku furrowed his brow, deep in thought.

Indeed, the stone tablet did record the words: 'To achieve true peace, the Infinite Tsukuyomi must be cast.'

The Infinite Tsukuyomi, a forbidden jutsu, was also related to the powers of the Sharingan. As the clan leader, Fugaku was well aware of this. Considering these two points along with Uchiha Madara's past behavior, it was possible he would take such actions.

"So he seeks revenge? He wants to personally destroy the Uchiha clan?" Fugaku couldn't help but ask.

"He doesn't want to destroy the Uchiha clan. He wants to fulfill the last line of the Naka Shrine inscription," Fang Mo clarified. "This last line can only be seen when the Rinnegan evolves from the Sharingan, combining the powers of Yin and Yang."

"The Rinnegan?" Fugaku was taken aback.

"The legendary eyes that were bestowed with the power of the Six Paths, the eyes that created the ninja world." Fang Mo said, activating his Rinnegan. "They look like this..."

"And... how do you know all this?" Fugaku looked at Fang Mo in disbelief. "Your eyes should be fake, right? Also, what exactly does the last line of the Naka Shrine inscription say?"

"Oh, it's like this..." Fang Mo didn't hide anything and proceeded to explain the history of the Otsutsuki clan, as well as their family drama, to Fugaku.

After listening, Fugaku was deeply shocked.

"So you mean... someone wants to destroy the entire world and then resurrect a woman named Kaguya Otsutsuki?" Fugaku was trying to digest what Fang Mo said. "Uchiha Madara was just being used, and he used two people named Nagato and Obito, planning to use the Edo Tensei to resurrect himself? And this Obito guy is planning to make the Nine-Tails go berserk to frame the Uchiha clan, while Danzo is also scheming to take our Sharingan?"

"As I said before," seeing Fugaku's confused expression, Fang Mo couldn't help but laugh. "I was pretending to be Uchiha Madara, and this Sharingan is fake. But my Sharingan is fake, and I definitely won't die. You are real, so don't think about surviving! My mission is complete, I won't disturb you, and I'm leaving, haha..."

"Wait, you can't leave!"

Hearing this, Fugaku hurriedly shouted.
