Naruto: Dual System Power At The Beginning

For the radical faction, seeing such behavior from the Third Hokage, they thought he was senile and deliberately suppressing the Uchiha clan.

Now they felt their Uchiha clan was far superior to the Third Hokage.

Whether moderate or radical, they deeply loved the village, as it was their place of livelihood.

The Great Elder was very gratified; his grandson had truly grown up and could hold his own in such situations.

Seeing this, Itachi realized that the people of the clan had been swayed by this man.

Even his own father did not hold Ryosuke accountable for his actions.

It truly broke his heart.

He could not allow someone like Ryosuke to influence the thinking of the clan.

Because he could foresee that if this continued, Ryosuke might even dare to openly confront the Hokage with the clan behind him.

If that happened, things would spiral completely out of control.

Since Shisui wasn't here, Itachi could only try to stop this situation himself.

So, he stood up again and said, "Uchiha Ryosuke, you underestimate the damage of war. If war breaks out and the Uchiha clan goes to the battlefield, how many of our people here will die? Have you never thought of that?"

Uchiha Ryosuke, however, smiled. "All the fame and glory of the Uchiha clan up to this point were earned through the blood and sacrifice of our ancestors, weren't they?"

"Or are you, Uchiha Itachi, just a coward?"

The other clansmen strongly agreed with Ryosuke's words.

Of course, they were aware of the dangers of being a ninja, yet they still chose this path resolutely.

How could they possibly fear death?

They were even willing to lay down their lives for the future strength of the Uchiha clan.

Among them, the radicals immediately chimed in.

"I support Uchiha Ryosuke."

"The Uchiha clan has no cowards afraid of death."

Seeing so many people siding with Ryosuke, Itachi was deeply alarmed.

If only they had this level of determination for the village's sake, it would be great.

Unfortunately, their goals were misguided.

To prevent them from straying further down the wrong path, Itachi fixed his gaze on Uchiha Ryosuke.

"With your strength, you probably don't have the ability to represent the clan, do you?"

The Uchiha clan only revered the strong; those without strength could not earn the clan's respect.

If he could firmly suppress Ryosuke with his strength, perhaps the clan might reconsider their stance.

It was difficult to change their thinking, but they tended to respect the powerful.

This was now the only method he had left.

Uchiha Ryosuke's face turned cold. Did Itachi just say he lacked the strength to represent the clan?

In the Uchiha clan, the strong had always held the position of leadership.

He was no longer the same person from a few months ago. Now, he was fully capable of handling Uchiha Itachi.

Having previously kicked Uchiha Obito, it was now time to punch Uchiha Itachi properly.

This guy had been opposing him constantly; clearly, his mindset was difficult to change.

Perhaps only by giving him a thorough beating could Itachi's wrong ideas be corrected.

Itachi had always been good at thinking, even considering things from the Hokage's perspective. Wasn't that because he prided himself on his strength?

A harsh defeat might make him realize his vulnerability and potentially correct his mindset.

Ryosuke stared coldly at him.

"Do you want to fight? I'll show you whether I have the strength to represent the clan."

"Just what I wanted," Itachi immediately responded.

As a genius of the clan, he didn't believe he would lose to Uchiha Ryosuke.

Although he had heard that Ryosuke had been training in taijutsu with Might Guy, taijutsu couldn't surpass the power of his eyes.

Itachi turned to his father, Uchiha Fugaku.

"Clan leader, please allow me to spar with Uchiha Ryosuke."

Uchiha Fugaku nodded in agreement.

"Alright. This space is too small. Take it outside to the shrine."

He approved this proposal because he wanted to see how far his son's strength had developed.

He knew his son was an unparalleled genius, but how did he compare to Uchiha Ryosuke?

At this moment, Uchiha Izumi looked troubled, not knowing whom to support.

On one side was Ryosuke, her brother, and on the other was Uchiha Itachi, someone she greatly admired.

Although she initially admired Itachi more, recent interactions made her realize their thoughts were vastly different.

Sometimes, she didn't even dare express her thoughts in front of Itachi for fear of angering him.

Itachi's mindset firmly aligned with the village, but Uchiha Izumi stood by her clan.

Without the clan's support, she and her mother might have ended up wandering somewhere.

She had no reason to oppose her clan.

Although conflicted internally, she still followed the others to watch the duel outside.

The other Uchiha clansmen were visibly more excited. The Uchiha clan had a natural love for combat. They stood at a distance to watch the fight unfold.

In the arena, Uchiha Ryosuke immediately activated his three-tomoe Sharingan.

At this time, Itachi was already incredibly strong, as he would be able to wipe out the clan in two years.

His power came not only from the Mangekyo Sharingan but also from his highly developed skills in ninjutsu, taijutsu, and dojutsu.

He didn't plan to lose to a traitor of the clan.

Standing on the opposite side, Itachi frowned as he saw Ryosuke activate the three-tomoe Sharingan.

So that's why Ryosuke was so arrogant now.

Just a short while ago, he was merely a regular two-tomoe Sharingan user.

However, Itachi wasn't intimidated since he, too, had the three-tomoe Sharingan.

Without exchanging words, Itachi took a shuriken from his ninja pouch and threw it directly at Ryosuke.

The shuriken clashed in mid-air, changing trajectory, and once again targeted Uchiha Ryosuke.

Faced with such an attack, Ryosuke treated it cautiously, his three-tomoe Sharingan carefully tracking the trajectory and skillfully avoiding the attacks.

Although the Sharingan's perception was excellent, it lacked the 360-degree vision of the Byakugan.

Itachi's shuriken technique, which could change direction and attack from behind, was clearly a genius-level skill.

However, with his fully activated Sharingan, Ryosuke managed to dodge all the shuriken.

This scene left the Uchiha onlookers amazed.

They never expected that even shuriken throwing could be taken to such an advanced level.
