I am the most popular character in Naruto!

Minato reluctantly pushed the scroll away. In matters of social etiquette, he was clearly not as shrewd as an old man like Hiashi Hyuga, so he could only hold the scroll in his hand.

Hiashi Hyuga patted Minato on the shoulder with satisfaction, then looked at Chiaki, who remained motionless.

He took this as Qianqiu's tacit agreement, and simply nodded to the two of them, saying, "We've met this time, so I won't delay the Commander-in-Chief and Her Highness the Princess's discussion any longer. I'll excuse myself now."

"Regarding the plan, just give the orders, Commander-in-Chief. If anyone in the Hyuga clan has any complaints, I'll just lead my men to take them down. Don't worry!"

"I'm leaving first."

As he spoke, Hiashi Hyuga walked towards the door, but he walked very slowly, as if he was waiting for something.

"and many more."

Sure enough, just as Hiashi Hyuga was about to step out of the room, Chiaki's voice rang out.

Hiashi Hyuga turned around with a smirk and asked Chiaki with a smile, "Is there anything else you need, Princess? Our Hyuga clan will definitely fulfill your wishes."

Qianqiu walked to the table and picked up the brocade box.

"I appreciate the thought, but please take the gift back."

As she spoke, Chiaki tossed the brocade box back into Hyuga Hiashi's arms. Hyuga Hiashi's expression changed. "What does Your Highness mean by this?"

"Chief Hyuga, please don't worry. But sometimes, please pay more attention to what girls think, especially if you have a daughter in the future..."

Qianqiu smiled and said, "Some things can't be solved just by your ideas or your methods."

"Besides, what you think and do may not necessarily be right, right?"

Hiashi Hyuga frowned as he looked at Chiaki. He didn't sense any rejection in Chiaki's words, so it seemed that Chiaki had a good impression of the Hyuga clan.

However, Hiashi Hyuga couldn't quite understand her refusal to accept the gift.

"I still don't quite get it..."

Hiashi Hyuga spoke frankly, raising a question to Chiaki.

Chiaki was clearly willing to speak well of the Hyuga clan and show them more consideration, so why wouldn't she accept the gifts...?

"Perhaps, the Hyuga clan leader will understand after he has a daughter in the future."

Chiaki smiled, tilted her head towards Hiashi Hyuga, and gestured to Minato, "You don't need to worry, our Commander-in-Chief didn't take your bribe..."

"Ahem, how can you talk like that!"

Minato glared at Chiaki. He was indeed preparing for his wedding with Kushina and needed a lot of things.

Hiashi Hyuga's "gift" came at the perfect time and was a real lifesaver.

In addition, the Hyuga clan's absolute support for the Hokage lineage made Minato happy to accept Hiashi Hyuga's gift, and he was also willing to take care of the Hyuga clan more.

This is a mutually beneficial thing, okay?

"Good good..."

"Brother Minato is very happy, and your request will be granted, so don't worry."

Chiaki glanced at Minato with disdain and then offered a comforting remark to Hyuga Hiashi.

Holding the brocade box, Hiashi Hyuga looked at Chiaki with a puzzled expression, and could only look to Minato for help.

Minato cleared his throat. "Don't worry, Hyuga clan leader, we will do our best to protect the Hyuga main clan."

These words were tantamount to a promise, and Hiashi Hyuga was overjoyed, bowing to Minato and Chiaki.

Just as he was about to express his gratitude, another member of the Anbu appeared in front of Chiaki and Minato.

"Commander-in-Chief, Your Highness the Princess, the Uchiha Clan Chief requests an audience."

"Yo."

Chiaki chuckled upon hearing this and looked at Hyuga Hiashi, saying, "You two made a deal?"

Hiashi Hyuga was also somewhat surprised, as in his memory Fugaku Uchiha was not the kind of person who would try to pull strings like him.

Moreover, the Uchiha clan had a grudge against Chiaki before, so what were their intentions in coming to see him at this time?

"Clan Chief Hyuga, you should leave now. I won't say anything more."

Minato nodded to Hiashi Hyuga, and Chiaki sat down in a chair, resting his chin on his hand, looking indifferent.

Hiashi Hyuga knew it was inappropriate for him to stay any longer, so he immediately apologized to the two and left in a hurry.

Before long, Fugaku Uchiha knocked on the door of the command room.

"How to say?"

Minato looked at Chiaki. There was no need to discuss the Hyuga clan's plan anymore; they had agreed to it completely.

The problem lies with the Uchiha clan.

The real challenge for Minato was figuring out a plan that would be acceptable to the Uchiha clan and would also leave the Hyuga clan without any complaints.

"What can I say?"

Chiaki fiddled with her long pink hair. "Just say what you think. I guess Fugaku Uchiha came here for the same reason as Hiashi Hyuga: to ask me to take better care of his ninjas."

"They can't afford to lose any more."

Minato slapped his forehead and complained to Chiaki, "Chiaki, I think it's a bit inappropriate for the Third Hokage to make me the Commander-in-Chief. You should be the Commander-in-Chief!"

"No, I'm too lazy to make plans. You're better suited to do it."

Chiaki stuck out his tongue, gesturing for Minato to call Uchiha Fugaku in.

Chapter 365 Brat

To Chiaki and Minato's surprise, after Hyuga Hiashi left, Uchiha Fugaku actually came and knocked on the door of the command room.

What surprised Chiaki and Minato was that Fugaku Uchiha did not come alone.

There were two other people following behind him.

One was Uchiha Shisui, and the other was Uchiha Itachi, who looked like a little adult.

"Greetings, Commander-in-Chief, and greetings, Your Highness the Princess."

Fugaku Uchiha remained composed and respectful as he bowed to Chiaki and Minato, displaying the demeanor befitting a proud clan leader.

Compared to Fugaku Uchiha, Shisui Uchiha was much more straightforward. He knelt down on one knee in front of Chiaki and sincerely expressed his gratitude to both Chiaki and Minato.

"Shisui greets Your Highness the Little Princess! Greetings to the Commander-in-Chief! I am very grateful for your assistance to the Uchiha clan!"

"Okay, get up."

Chiaki waved his hand at Uchiha Shisui, "What do you think the Uchiha clan head will think if you do this? It makes it seem like he's not grateful to us at all."

Chiaki's words were laced with sarcasm, a true testament to Hatake Sakumo's influence.

However, it was precisely because of her attitude that Fugaku Uchiha was able to relax.

Before arriving, Fugaku Uchiha was quite nervous.

Chiaki, who has always been at odds with the Uchiha clan, actually agreed to help them. Is it really something she would do that goes against common sense? Does she have other schemes against the Uchiha clan?

Although Itachi Uchiha had analyzed Chiaki's thoughts for Fugaku Uchiha and made it clear that Chiaki had no other intentions, Fugaku Uchiha still felt uneasy about it.

It wasn't until just now, with Chiaki's usual sarcastic and unsettling tone, that Fugaku Uchiha felt a little more at ease.

At least Chiaki still dislikes the Uchiha clan quite a bit, which makes sense.

"We are here mainly to hear the Commander-in-Chief's plans for our Uchiha clan."

Seeing that the scene was a little dull, Itachi Uchiha stepped forward and immediately broke the atmosphere.

As a child, he always had the ability and reasons to advance or retreat, and was also the best candidate to break the deadlock.

"Cough...that's right."

Fugaku Uchiha composed himself and quickly glanced at Chiaki, who was sitting in a chair and not even looking at him.

The more she disliked the Uchiha clan, the more at ease Fugaku felt.

The main purpose of this visit, besides confirming the plan, was to check on the situation at Qianqiu's place.

"Oh?"

Minato raised an eyebrow in surprise. "The word 'listen' is used quite... um..."

Faced with the arrogant Uchiha clan, Minato was already mentally prepared to personally go and communicate with them, and then have the two sides argue back and forth for several rounds.

But now the Uchiha are talking about listening?

That means acting entirely according to one's own arrangements?

"Perhaps I'm too young and used the wrong words."

Uchiha Itachi gave a seemingly innocent smile. "But I think everyone knows what I mean, right?"

"Little ghost head."

Chiaki, who had always worn an expression of mutual loathing towards the Uchiha clan, glanced at Itachi Uchiha after hearing his words and spoke.

Itachi Uchiha burst into laughter.

Little devil.

This nickname truly illustrates how Chiaki's attitude towards himself differed significantly from his attitude towards other Uchiha ninjas.

Uchiha Itachi immediately spoke to Chiaki, saying, "Chiaki-neechan, you should understand what I mean, right?"

Don't try to get too close to me.

Chiaki stood up, walked to Itachi Uchiha, knelt down in front of him, touched his forehead with her finger, and said softly, "You can call me Princess."

Uchiha Itachi, holding Chiaki's slender, delicate fingers, smiled and said, "I understand, Chiaki-neechan."

"Tch, brat."

Qianqiu withdrew her finger, rolled her eyes, and returned to her seat.

She didn't continue to correct Uchiha Itachi's way of addressing her, which meant she acquiesced.

Uchiha Itachi revealed a triumphant smile, touched his forehead, and curled the corners of his mouth.

"Speak, what brings you here today?"
