Naruto: Releasing Chakra Limits at the Start

Chapter 318 Yoru's Understanding of the Uchiha Clan

When Yoru and Sasuke returned from Nagato and Konan's place, Sasuke remained silent.

On the way, Yoru looked at Sasuke and asked, "What did your brother say to you?"

Sasuke paused for a moment, then looked up at Yoru.

Without the slightest hesitation, he relayed everything Itachi Uchiha had told him to Yoru.

After listening, Ye Yu smiled wryly and said, "Your older brother is really something."

Yoru wanted to say that it was too extreme, but she didn't continue because she was concerned about Sasuke's feelings.

But Sasuke understood what Yoru meant and agreed with him.

Previously, he had thought that what Itachi did was out of love for him, but now, after thinking about it carefully and being reminded by Yoru's words, Sasuke realized that what Itachi did and made those decisions was just to protect his ideas; he wanted him to live according to his plan.

The decisions he made back then were indeed too extreme. Although the Konoha leadership was also quite extreme, the Uchiha clan wouldn't have been wiped out if Itachi hadn't cooperated.

The decision to wipe out the entire Uchiha clan was originally made by the Konoha leadership themselves.

They even disagreed on the matter, and they didn't dare to reveal it to other families in Konoha.

If the news leaks out, although the Uchiha clan will be abuzz with discussion, they will definitely not overwhelmingly agree to exterminate the Uchiha clan.

Back then, neither of the two key figures, Uchiha Shisui nor Uchiha Itachi, sided with the Uchiha clan.

It can't even maintain neutrality.

In the end, the Uchiha clan was wiped out, leaving only Itachi and Sasuke. I have a very close relationship with these two.

Sasuke now understood Yoru's thoughts, so he said, "I know what you want to say. Maybe it's because he awakened those Mangekyou Sharingan that his thinking is a bit extreme."

"Perhaps the Sharingan really can affect a person's emotions."

Yoru laughed and said, "Your Sharingan didn't affect your emotions."

"Most members of the Uchiha clan are unable to awaken the Sharingan, which shows that their thinking is not extreme, but they have also been implicated."

"Furthermore, I don't think the Sharingan can affect a person's emotions. On the contrary, it's because a person's emotions have been affected that they awaken the Sharingan."

"It's just that your Uchiha clan happens to have the Sharingan, which allows you to utilize negative emotions."

“Even if ordinary people have extreme thoughts, they can’t awaken the Sharingan, nor can they use those negative emotions. I don’t agree with what the Second Hokage said, such as that the Uchiha clan is a clan of love.”

"It's just a normal family, you just happen to be able to take advantage of people's negative emotions."

"To put it bluntly, your family has never done anything to harm Konoha since the founding of the village until the upheaval that occurred within the family."

"On the contrary, they made great contributions to Konoha in the various Shinobi World Wars."

Yoru didn't praise the Uchiha clan in this respect.

During the Third Shinobi World War, in the battle between the Land of Water and the Land of Fire, the Konoha leadership sent the Uchiha clan, a family skilled in Fire Release ninjutsu, to the battlefield against the Land of Water, clearly intending to make things difficult for them.

However, the Uchiha clan did not resist, and Uchiha Shisui even made a name for himself on that battlefield.

Many people's various speculations about the Uchiha clan are just speculations; the Uchiha clan never actually did anything like that.

Madara Uchiha and Obito Uchiha were indeed very extreme, but after their incidents, they had long since broken away from the Uchiha clan. What they did had nothing to do with the Uchiha clan.

So many rogue ninja in Konoha, including many who did things that greatly harmed the village, weren't from the Uchiha clan.

Are those people from families that are even more evil and extreme than the Uchiha clan?

Nobody would say that.

Ultimately, it's because the Uchiha clan is too powerful, and they are feared.

From the moment the village was founded, the Uchiha clan was targeted and treated so badly, but as long as their survival was not threatened and they could still live a decent life in Konoha, they never thought of resisting.

It wasn't until after the Nine-Tails' attack that Konoha's targeting became so obvious, even excessive, that they considered launching a coup. But that was all they wanted; what Fugaku Uchiha wanted was a bloodless coup, to control Konoha's leadership and restore their former power—nothing more.

How humble must they be to be targeted like that, with such low demands for launching a coup?

They didn't even think about seizing the Hokage position; they just wanted to regain their former power.

But their previous power was actually an institution specifically set up by the second generation to monitor them.

Therefore, those who say how evil and extreme the Uchiha clan is are the truly extreme ones.

They've concentrated the work of one or two people into one family.

Moreover, the proportion of rogue ninjas from the Uchiha clan is far lower than that of other clans.

Before the Uchiha clan was wiped out, there was only one rogue ninja left in the Uchiha clan, and that was Uchiha Madara.

The Uchiha clan is different from the Hyuga clan. The Byakugan of the Hyuga branch family is controlled by the Caged Bird Seal, so defection is useless.

However, the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan is not controlled or restricted.

Their becoming rogue ninjas has no impact on their Sharingan, and their strength will not be weakened in any way.

Even so, despite the fact that Konoha Village targeted them so much, they only had one rogue ninja before the extermination of their clan.

If the Uchiha clan's actions don't count as loyalty to Konoha, then other clans have even less right to say so.

Sasuke was deeply moved by what Yoru said.

Sasuke actually knew that the Uchiha clan's reputation in Konoha wasn't very good in the past.

After all, they are in charge of the Konoha Police Force, and they are basically in charge of the security of Konoha.

Some people do indeed harbor resentment towards them.

In addition, some members of the Uchiha clan are indeed arrogant, so it's normal that they are ostracized by some people in Konoha.

But after Yoru's analysis, Sasuke realized that Yoru truly understood the injustice of the Uchiha clan's annihilation and wasn't just saying it to appease him.

After listening to what Yoru had to say in silence, Sasuke said, "Yoru, having a friend like you in this life is the greatest fortune of my life."

"If only you had been born earlier."

Sasuke thought that if Yoru had been born earlier, he could have achieved his current status before the Uchiha clan was wiped out, and the Uchiha clan would never have been exterminated.

The situation of the Uchiha clan in Konoha will even improve significantly.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing.
