After the meeting, Shisui guided Uchiha Inabi as agreed and then went to Mokgetsu's home to tell Mokgetsu what had happened at the clan assembly.
"If the Uchiha Clan can become Hokage or part of the upper echelons, it would naturally benefit your plan greatly, but it's not realistic in the short term," Mokgetsu shook his head and said.
Unless entering the fourth generation period under Namikaze Minato's rule, the Uchiha will encounter enormous resistance.
"However, this is actually an opportunity; you could use the excuse that other clans fear the Uchiha monopolizing power, which influences the Hokage election, to persuade the Uchiha leadership to reform the Police Department."
In Mokgetsu's vision, if the Police Department issue is completely resolved, Shisui's life mission might advance by about forty percent.
The Uchiha have become like this now, and the Police Department is one significant core issue.
Senju Tobirama truly understood the Uchiha too well; who could have thought that this seemingly big cake split for the Uchiha was actually laced with poison.
Shisui showed a thoughtful expression.
He simulated the idea given by Mokgetsu and found it much better than his original plan.
The best aspect of Mokgetsu's idea is using benefits to attract the Uchiha to abandon the toxic Police Department.
Using the reason that the Police Department harms the Uchiha to advise the Uchiha to abandon it would be considered insane, but if sacrificing some Police Department interests for the Hokage position, the perception is entirely different.
"It's truly wonderful to have a teacher like you," Shisui sincerely remarked.
Each time he feels he's learned a lot from Mokgetsu, but he can always learn more from Mokgetsu.
...
Land of Rain, Ninja Sect Base.
Strengthening training for the eastern relocation of Land of Rain has entered its final stage, Mokgetsu's Shadow Clone issued tasks again, asking Ninja Sect ninjas to promote the big lecture event.
To successfully strive for higher lecture rewards, Mokgetsu pushed public opinion to the maximum, striving to do the best.
The Rain Village is a key area for Mokgetsu's promotion, from Rain Village leader Hanzo to Rain Village Genin, they all know Mokgetsu will conduct a week-long unlimited lecture soon.
Not only was it coordinated with Rain Ninja, wandering ninjas or ninjas from other countries could come listen, with no threshold at all.
"I kind of want to attend that ninja master's lecture, I've heard he teaches very well."
"I want to go but don't want to go. Although we are partners, Lord Hanzo probably doesn't like them and might punish us if we go."
"This is too conflicted, if worse comes, just use Transformation Jutsu to disguise."
"Good idea, disguise on the first day and see what's going on. If it's not as legendary as it claims or doesn't teach useful things, then I'll return."
Hanzo, patrolling in Rain Village, sighed softly upon hearing the patrol Rain Ninjas' conversation.
What exactly is his image in others' eyes now? A furious leader defeated by Sosuke? Even worried about being punished just for attending a lecture.
What really unsettled Hanzo internally is a faint similar thought crossed his mind.
The thought of his subordinates yearning for Sosuke's guidance made Hanzo feel awkward inside; they were his subordinates.
But when Hanzo thought rationally, he could somewhat understand them; Sosuke was famous for his teaching ability even before defeating Kakuzu and him.
If he didn't truly have capability, how would so many ninjas want to follow him?
"Why not, should I go too?" Hanzo had a thought internally.
He thought carefully and realized he actually doesn't understand that Sosuke, whom he sees as a major enemy.
What is Sosuke's true goal, why did Sosuke establish the Ninja Sect, what kind of person is Sosuke, these he only has vague impressions of.
They actually have only communicated three times; once when Hanzo heard of Sosuke's reputation and actively called him to Rain Village for a reminder, the second before the canyon battle, the third was negotiations.
Hanzo's impression of Sosuke is mostly intelligence, from Rain Ninja intelligence, and also from Shimura Danzo.
Hanzo felt he perhaps really needs to go once, to see why Sosuke is holding such a grand public lecture event, to see what state that ninja master is in during lectures.
That day, Hanzo dispatched Anbu to investigate all Rain Village ninjas' attitudes towards Sosuke's lectures.
He was surprised to discover twenty percent of ninjas were quite interested in attending the lecture.
Moreover, the remaining ninjas didn't think Sosuke lacked ability, but felt in such a public lecture, Sosuke wouldn't reveal real things, so they weren't interested.
This was unexpected to Hanzo; previously Rain Village was opposed to the Ninja Sect, yet nearly half of the ninjas wanted to attend Sosuke's lectures.
This made Hanzo, who was hesitant, determined to disguise as a wandering ninja on the first day of unlimited lecture to attend Sosuke's course, to see what's going on.
Mokgetsu's promotional efforts were very successful, not only in Rain Village, but this significant news circulated rapidly around countries surrounding Land of Rain.
"Lecture teaching without any restrictions." Kitsuchi in Hidden Rock Village was greatly intrigued upon receiving the intelligence.
He greatly admired Sosuke and was very curious about the teaching ability of Sosuke, which existed only in intelligence.
With his strength, naturally he wouldn't need Sosuke to teach him anything; at his level, he mostly relies on his own efforts to advance.
The intrigued Kitsuchi ultimately approached the Tsuchikage's extensive office to request permission from Onoki.
