Chapter 22 - Chapter 22: We Uchiha Are Planning a Rebellion!

Yo, shinobi-in-training!

You've read through intense battles, emotional flashbacks, and probably a few secret forbidden jutsu…

But you still haven't ADDED this story to your COLLECTION, left a REVIEW, or launched a POWER STONE like a Rasengan?

Even Naruto left a shadow clone to drop one.

Sasuke looked back just to judge you.

And Kakashi? He's silently disappointed behind that mask.

Every collection adds chakra to my reserves.

Every review is like unlocking a new jutsu scroll of motivation.

And Power Stones? That's basically Sage Mode fuel—don't leave your author stuck in Genin-level energy!

Be a true comrade—support this humble story so it doesn't vanish like a filler arc!

I had Interview so i was busy

---------*-*-*-----*

After returning home, Uchiha Haru did not miss a single opportunity to train and improve himself.

Even though the improvement he could gain at this point was minimal, he still pushed himself.

That was the way of a shinobi.

Once someone reached a very high level, the road forward became increasingly difficult. Progress no longer came from simple training—it required either slow accumulation over time or a life-changing opportunity, a rare stroke of fortune.

But to Uchiha Haru, even the smallest improvement was valuable.

After all, greater strength meant greater safety.

He trained throughout the night.

The next morning, just as Haru arrived at the Konoha Military Police Force headquarters, he was summoned to the office of Uchiha Fugaku—the head of the Uchiha clan and the chief of the Konoha Military Police.

"Haru, come in," Fugaku's deep voice called from inside the office.

Haru walked in with measured strides.

Inside, aside from Fugaku, several other high-ranking members of the Uchiha clan were present.

There were elders, middle-aged men, and even some young core members.

"Patriarch."

Fugaku nodded slightly, a small smile on his lips. His gaze swept across Haru's face, and for a brief moment, surprise flickered in his eyes, just as it had the last time they met.

He didn't know why, but every time he saw Haru recently, the boy gave off a new kind of pressure—different, unfamiliar, and growing stronger each time.

Still, Fugaku didn't press the issue.

Everyone had their secrets. As long as it didn't harm the Uchiha clan, he wouldn't interfere.

Once Haru stepped in, Fugaku immediately gave an order to guard the door. His expression turned serious, as if he was about to reveal something that couldn't be overheard.

What he didn't know was that, from a high rooftop not far away, several members of the Konoha ANBU were watching everything.

"Uchiha Fugaku is holding a meeting with the clan's core members inside the Police Force."

"One of them is Uchiha Haru—his first appearance at such a gathering."

"Report to the Hokage immediately."

"Yes!"

One masked ANBU operative vanished in an instant, heading straight for the Hokage Tower.

Back in Fugaku's office, Haru and a dozen others were gathered around a long wooden table.

As clan head, Fugaku sat at the head of the table. Haru had never been part of a meeting like this before, but that didn't stop him from understanding exactly what was happening.

He was a time traveler. He knew the direction the Uchiha clan was heading in.

And, sure enough, the next words out of Fugaku's mouth confirmed everything he expected.

"Haru," Fugaku began gravely, "a few days ago, you killed Raiga, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist, by yourself. You've shown your strength."

"There's something you need to know."

"We—the Uchiha clan—are preparing to rebel!"

"What?!"

Haru widened his eyes, feigning shock. Of course, he already knew. But if he showed no reaction, that would be suspicious.

"Patriarch, are we... actually going to rebel?" he asked, his voice filled with disbelief.

"Yes," Fugaku nodded solemnly. "You must have noticed the tension between our clan and Konoha's leadership by now."

"For years, the higher-ups have excluded us, harassed us. They pushed us out of the village's core, assigned ANBU to monitor us day and night."

"Exactly! I've had enough of those Konoha bastards!" one clan member growled.

"Rebellion! That's the only way!"

"We, the Uchiha, were among the founders of Konoha! And now, look how they treat us!"

"They hate us! They fear our power! If we don't rise up now, they'll crush us eventually!"

"Better to fight and die than live under their boot!"

The room filled with angry voices, the air thick with indignation. The core Uchiha members, faces flushed with fury, spoke over each other, cursing Konoha's leadership and demanding vengeance.

Through it all, Haru said nothing. He sat in silence, brow furrowed, as if torn and uncertain.

"Haru, what are you hesitating for?" one elder snapped, clearly agitated. "Have you forgotten your bloodline?"

To stay silent at such a moment? Unforgivable.

Fugaku quickly raised a hand, stopping the growing anger in the room. His eyes turned back to Haru, studying him closely.

This was exactly what Fugaku expected.

If Haru had agreed too quickly, he would have found it suspicious.

He knew Haru well—cautious, sharp, never one to act on impulse. Every decision Haru made was calculated, every move thought out.

And choosing to stand against Konoha wasn't something that could be done lightly.

A rebellion wasn't just dangerous—it was suicidal.

After a long silence, Haru finally raised his head and looked Fugaku in the eye.

"I'm in," he said.

Just three words, but they sent waves through the room.

The tense atmosphere relaxed at once. A few men even smiled.

Fugaku stood, walked over to Haru, and placed a firm hand on his shoulder.

"Good," he said. "With you on our side, Haru, the chances of our rebellion succeeding have grown."

"Our first target will be Danzo Shimura, head of the Root division."

"It's because of his constant interference that our clan ended up in this situation."

"This mission—this rebellion—starts with his death."

"What comes after?" Haru asked casually.

Rebelling was easy to say, but what came next? Killing Danzo was one thing—possible, even—but it wouldn't end there.

The Uchiha were strong, yes. But Konoha was stronger. A direct war with the village would only bring destruction to the entire clan.

There would be no reconciliation. Not after Danzo's death.

Even if Haru agreed to participate, he wasn't optimistic about the outcome.

But he asked anyway, just to see what Fugaku would say.

"Heh…" Fugaku chuckled. "This is only the beginning."

"We're still planning the details. This isn't something we'll rush into."

"This is about the future of our clan. We must take the long view."

With that, the meeting continued into quieter discussions—logistics, possibilities, timing.

But Haru's thoughts were elsewhere.

He had joined the rebellion in name.

But in his heart, he knew—things were more complicated than they seemed.

And the night of blood, fire, and Uchiha fate was drawing closer.
