Naruto: Dream to Immortality

Chapter 78: Politics 101 with Yami -sensei (1)

Then I open the doors to the Hokage tower and immediately I see all of the clan Heads in there crowded there also seem to be some of the successors of the clan heads in here.

Except the Yamanaka clan head (who has a proxy), Senju and some other unimportant clans who are probably on the front lines. As soon as I enter I see all eyes on me. The clan leaders are all sitting in a big circular table. With the hokage having the highest chair, showing that he is the highest position of power.

The Hokage looks at me at me with a strange look. He probably wanted to meet me before the Clan Head meeting. I would have gone there, he would have probably tried to help me. After all, I am the most 'talented' ninja that Konoha has had in all of its existence. I would have gone to him for help... if I was innocent that is. 

I definitely don't underestimate Hiruzen's ability to read me. He will be the longest hokage in power in the future. You don't go that far by being nice and good all the time. I am not saying he isn't kind but if he knew I really did steal the sharingan well that would backfire in me. By not going to him it might make him suspicious and it will definitely make Danzo doubt me. But I am still only a 'kid',  an eleven year old kid who just was in a death battle and is just having a temper tantrum.

(3rd POV)

The Uchiha Clan leader sits to the right of the Hokage. He looks at his successor a nineteen year old Fugaku sitting to his right and his young daughter Mikoto to his left. He communicated with handsigns with Fugaku. Telling him to not cause a ruckus or anything like that.

When all of the clan heads sit down. They don't whisper anything or even talk. They all communicate between each other by using handsigns.

Yami looks around and sees that there is no seat for him. Then he just simply takes out a scroll, everyone instinctively tenses up and Yami runs some chakra through the scroll

*poof*

A normal chair comes out of the smoke and Yami  rings it closer to the round table and sits on it. Taking his seat as the Inuzuka Clan head the other clan heads are looking at him with cold looks. He just challenged their power play. It's the same as Yami challenging their authority.

When Yami sees this he sits down he looks at all of them and smiles.

"Hello. Long time no see. I really missed Konoha. Ahhhhh it is so sad that I couldn't meet Tsume and my mother. Even when I was tired I went to my house and didn't find them there. Then I remembered an anbu told me that there was a clan meeting and immediately came here. Finally taking a shower without having to use a water jutsu or being afraid of a kunai stabbing me in the butt hole."

Some of the clan heads politely laugh while some are truly laughing. The Uchiha and a couple of other clans don't even smile. Yami just looks at them secretly while memorizing every one of the clan names that would be a problem.

'Playing dumb can turn a powerplay on its head. When someone has to explain exactly how they are threatening you, it becomes either laughable or plain evil, both of which are more easily resisted' - thinks Yami...

Then suddenly the Hokage clears his throat and all of the clan heads immediately stop communicating with handsigns.

Then the  Hokage looks towards Yami and says in a calm and serious voice. 

"We are glad to have you here Yami."

Fugaku Uchiha is about to say something but the Uchiha clan head notices this and looks at him coldly. Fugaku's words got stuck in his throat and he didn't say anything.

The Uchiha clan leader can't help but look at the Inuzuka kid in a new light.

'The kid melted all of the ice and suspicion when he got here by acting like he did. He already knows what is happening. He also showed that cold look to Uchiha, the Hyuga and the Kurama clan he is telling us not to act against him no he is ORDERING US THAT KID JUST BECAUSE HE GOT A LITTLE FAME HE THINKS THAT THE UCHIHA ARE SO WEAK'

Even though the anger inside the Uchiha clan head was like a volcano. He had an impassive face like nothing happened. He looks towards Fugaku, the future clan head that the current Clan Head is trying to make him understand the political side of konoha just strength and pride are not enough to be prosperous in Konoha. Fugaku will need some more self control before he can be married to Mikoto and take over as the Clan Head.

Hiruzen smiles and says to Yami.

"I heard that you did some amazing things on the battlefield and saved hundreds of lives. Tsunade is very proud of you."

Yami didn't stop smiling at all and said in a sincere voice.

"Thanks Hokage -sama. I am glad that I was able to help also I gave Jiraya -sama the four ninja Swords that I took when I killed their welders. I hope that Jiraya -sama is able to use them to broker peace with the Land Of Water."

The Hokage nods and then he gets a serious look.

"Jounin Yami Inuzuka due to some troublesome news they say that they have seen you using a Chain like Fuinjutsu technique."

Everyone is looking at Yami with a serious face.

But Yami seems like he is oblivious to the looks around him and says with an even wider smile and he seems completely relaxed...
