Chapter 31 - Stabilization and Preparation

I made sure that all the elders were caught before I announced "I invite all the attendees in this joyous event to celebrate my victory!". I looked toward the crowd as a lot of them were filled with fear. I knew my public image took a hit after I tortured Fū publicly so I had to say something to persuade them that what I have done was just. I took a long breath and said "I know what you just witnessed was gruesome, but imagine yourself in my place! What would you do to someone who sent assassins after you when you were just a kid, put you in a coma, killed your family members, weakened your clan, just to become a clan head!? What would you do if the person who killed your mother and injured your sister stood in front of you!".

The word "family" was sacred to a lot of people; soon those who were scared lowered their head as they started justifying my actions in their mind. A lot of people started cheering for my victory and soon most of the damage done to my public image was repaired.

In celebration of such occasion a huge party was dropped by the Ino-Shika-Cho alliance sponsored with some of the money I made. The food was plenty, the sake too! The people started singing poems of my greatness and the mood was mostly positive. What the people didn't know that currently the elders that supported Fū were being killed one by one through the arrangement I made with Inoichi to let him have his revenge. Despite having the chance to read the elders' memories, Sans convinced Inoichi that the elders were the ones behind his wife's death and so he killed them without even bothering to check their memories as they kept crying and screaming that they didn't do it.

Everyone was pleased with the food and the drinks and as the party came to end, a lot of people held their last cup of sake up in union and said together "for the wellbeing of Voidne Yamanaka". Leaving in satisfaction, I knew that the people would talk to their family members about this grand occasion and that my popularity will increase throughout the village. Popularity and public image are two important things that a person should have to claim an authoritative position, thus it is worth the money I spent on the party.

After view days, my victory and generosity was still the talk of the village. I knew that this will continue for sometime but I had other important things to pay attention to. First, I need to get rid of the rats that still exist within the clan. Second, I need to teach the clansmen how to grow coffee, tea, and other plants that produces many valuable drugs and beans. Finally, I need to gain the justification to kill the Uchiha clan myself since I only have around 8 months until the Uchiha massacre happens. I changed many things so I don't anticipate that the events will go as in cannon.

I started planting actors among the clansmen, the actors will say bad things about Inoichi and myself and will not be punished. It will encourage the rats to come out and speak, therefore allowing me to identify the rats. As for planting, I only taught it to those whom I trusted within the alliance. A lot of money went to hiring people to search for different variations of useful plants including corn. The newly found plants will be used for cross breeding. Fertile lands across the Land of Fire were bought as they were a priority too since they will ensure a stable income in the future. With the cannabis taking anywhere between 90 to 150 days, the next big drugs income will come in around 5 months. Caffeine producing trees and plants will take years to show any result, so the production of caffeine pills will be cut for years. The only thing that can be sold constantly is the Chakra pills since I can make these myself. I've decided to reduce the production to increase the price, since the production itself was taking a huge amount of my time.

The rats in the clan started appearing and gathering together, making it easier for me to catch them. At first I thought about killing them, but I decided against it as I was enlightened with the plan that would give me the justification to go against the Uchiha. I pretended to use what is left of the money to send most of the rats in missions to find some types of herbs while sending some of my followers to assassinate the rats after they leave the village. The bodies of the rats will be burned to imitate fireball jutsu. As most of the rats left the village, I made a statement regarding the Uchiha's dishonor and disloyalty to the village. The Uchiha were very angry but they couldn't do anything to me. The statement was very harsh that the Hokage felt the need to defend the Uchiha to maintain a peaceful relationship with them.

A month has passed but the rats didn't return, so I made Inoichi issue an investigation and sure enough, their burnt bodies were found in random locations around the Land of Fire. Inoichi and I quickly went out to the hokage's office and with the help of Shikaku, the Hokage was convinced that it is the Uchiha's doing. As the Uchiha's coupe approaches a request to read the Fugaku's mind would be lethal to the Uchiha.

With the Hokage's support, the Ino-Shika-Cho alliance requested to read Fugaku's mind. The Uchiha soon crumbled under the public pressure and started to acting hostile to the village, refusing the request of the alliance and putting themselves in a very dangerous decision. With this, killing the Uchiha would be supported by the Hokage and the public, and so the preparation for my revenge are done! All what was left is to come up with a plan to kill every single Uchiha!
