Chapter 41 Dual clan leaders? (Please recommend and read more)
Nanga Shrine.
The torii gate at the entrance of the shrine has been around for hundreds of years, and the vermilion pillars have faded.
But on the forehead of the god at the highest point of the torii, the magatama made of glass and the words "Uchiha" are still shining brightly in the sun.
Listening to the rustling of the leaves in the wind, and walking up the bluestone steps of the shrine, Uchiha Gen quickly saw the two huge stone statues of armored Karasu Tengu enshrined at the entrance of the shrine.
The white-haired Uchiha stood alone under the stone statue for a moment, staring into the distance alone.
His eyes suddenly fell on Uchiha Yuan, looking at his collar and clothes over and over again, and for the first time various colors were revealed in his empty eyes.
Setsuna felt a little dazzled.
Uchiha Yuan's proud figure seemed to have an incredible overlap with a certain figure in his memory, causing him to mistake Uchiha Yuan for someone else at that moment.
"Madara, Izuna... you're so old that you can't even tell people apart!"
Uchiha took a deep breath and shook his head to dispel the phantom in his mind.
"Elder Setsuna, what's the matter? Why don't you go in?" Uchiha Yuan asked.
Uchiha came back to his senses in an instant, the wrinkles on his face were squeezed together, and he actually showed a rare smile:
"I came here to persuade you, but when I met you, I knew that you couldn't be persuaded! Just keep this contempt for the world in your eyes, and I will vote for you!"
The smile on Uchiha Yuan's face became brighter and brighter, "For me, victory is natural! Elder Setsuna, please!"
"No! You are the protagonist today!"
Uchiha knew what was going on in an instant. He stretched out his scarred hand and pointed towards the dark shrine, indicating that Uchiha Yuan should go first.
"Then I'll be disrespectful!"
Uchiha Yuan no longer refused, and strode into the shrine with an air of abandonment.
......
The leader of the Uchiha clan is both an honor and a burden.
Especially since Madara defected, the clan has been in disarray. After fighting among themselves for many days, they reluctantly elected a clan leader.
A few years later, Uchiha Setsuna rebelled. Although he failed to kill Senju Tobirama, he did kill the clan leader at the time.
After the rebellion, Uchiha, which suffered heavy losses, fell into the hands of Mikoto's father. Later, he recruited his son-in-law Fugaku and passed the throne to him.
However, the three patriarchs after Madara don't have a high say in the clan, far from the level of 'one voice' that the patriarchs had during the Warring States Period.
In the final analysis, the three generations of clan leaders after Madara were not strong enough.
Everyone is a three-magatama. Even if you are the 'number one master', if you can defeat two three-magatama tribesmen at one time, you are nothing short of awesome. Why should you care about me?
"So, if Fugaku doesn't have a kaleidoscope, I even only need to reveal the kaleidoscope, and these tribesmen will support me!"
Gen Uchiha sat on his knees on the mahogany futon, staring confidently at the six stone tablets filled with strange words in front of him. In his heart, it was as if Germany and the Soviet Union had signed a non-aggression pact - without any ripples.
But the atmosphere in the secret room is still quite strange.
Uchiha Gen's 'usurpation' was not kept secret, and was even a bit of a joke, so almost all the jounin in the clan got the news. At this moment, they were each looking at Uchiha Gen who was taking it calmly.
Most of the Mesozoics in the clan glanced at him with cold eyes, and most of the Young Generations, except for a few sitting behind him, also had dissatisfaction in their eyes.
On the contrary, the old people from the village's founding era had admiration in their eyes.
Uchiha Yuan ignored these gazes, his back straight and as sharp as a sword that had just been unsheathed, and he only occasionally glanced at Uchiha Fugaku who was sitting at the top.
Uchiha Fugaku did not wear normal clothes today. Instead, he changed into a black tight-fitting combat uniform with the green mail of the Konoha Jounin on the outside. He was obviously well prepared.
"Everyone is here, let's start!"
Uchiha Fugaku stood up, glanced around the clan members in the secret room, and finally set his sights on Uchiha Yuan, "This clan meeting is held for a big event."
He paused for a moment, stretched out his hand towards Uchiha Yuan, pointed to his side and said:
"The Konoha Police Force is busy with affairs, and I am short of manpower. I intend to add a permanent deputy minister to help me handle affairs and manage clan affairs.
Source: Although you are young and of good character, you are also promoting the reputation of our Uchiha clan on the Eastern Front battlefield. Is this interesting? "
One stone caused a thousand waves.
The Konoha Police Force and the Uchiha Clan can be said to be two sides of the same coin. The head of the Uchiha Clan has always been the minister, with four captains under him. There has never been a 'deputy minister', let alone a 'deputy minister'. Deputy Minister'!
This is not the deputy minister, this is the deputy clan leader, or even the 'double clan leader'!
Everyone subconsciously looked sideways at Yuan Uchiha, wanting to see if he would be bribed by such a generous offer.
"Fugaku, you disappoint me so much!"
Uchiha Yuan stood up, not even calling him clan leader, and swept his sleeves, his eyes full of defiance and sarcasm.
"You can choose to fight me, you can rebuke me in the name of the clan leader, or you can even let your cronies assassinate me... It doesn't matter!
But you chose to give in, hoping that your temporary tolerance would lead to peaceful coexistence with me, and hoping that I would not push further despite your concession.
you are wrong!
Uchiha can be killed and killed in battle!
But even if one step forward leads to an abyss and shattered bones, the pride engraved in our bones and souls will never allow us to take a step back! "
The corners of Uchiha Yuan's mouth curled up, he looked around at the many clansmen in the secret room, and finally said loudly:
"How can you, a person who doesn't understand Uchiha and is not like Uchiha, be a good leader of Uchiha and lead Uchiha to glory?"
Uchiha Fugaku frowned and looked a little ugly.
He looked around the clan members and found that many of them nodded slightly, including a few of his own supporters, who obviously recognized Uchiha Gen's words.
Uchiha's background is arrogance.
He thought he was making sacrifices and forbearance for the sake of his clan.
But in the eyes of these tribesmen, he was just cowardly, he didn't dare to fight Uchiha Yuan head-on, and he didn't have the pride of Uchiha.
He has lost ground in the hearts of his people.
"Source!" Uchiha Fugaku's voice turned gloomy, full of anger:
"You think I'm not worthy of being the clan leader? Do you think you are more suitable to be the Uchiha clan leader than me?"
"Of course!"
Uchiha Yuan raised his eyebrows provocatively at Fugaku, and used his seal technique.
The flame fan appeared out of thin air, was held in his hand, and stood on the ground.
"Just because of this, I am more worthy of being the clan leader than you!"
Uchiha Yuan's confident and loud voice reached the ears of every clan member in the secret room:
"Without a flame ball fan, do you deserve to be called the leader of the Uchiha clan?"
