Konoha: Rebuild the glory of the Uchiha

Chapter 50 passed unanimously!

Uchiha Nan spoke at length for twenty minutes, without even realizing how long he had been talking.

"Therefore, for the sake of Konoha's development, we must endure some hardship ourselves."

When Uchiha Nan finished speaking, everyone's spirits lifted. What he had just said was all nonsense, a prelude to the main event. What he was about to say was the important thing.

"Many clans have sacrificed their members for Konoha, and the compensation for their families must be paid immediately without delay."

"However, for the sake of Konoha's development, I think we can postpone addressing the other debts Konoha owes you."

Uchiha Nan's words caused the expressions of the high-ranking members of the various ninja clans present to change.

Is this a move to continue accumulating debt?

This is a direct challenge to the interests of all the ninja clans in Konoha!

"Rest assured, Konoha will repay every single debt it owes you."

"However, we can't pay in full at once. I have a proposal: we can pay in installments."

"First, pay off the first three layers in one lump sum, and then pay off the remaining seven layers over five to ten years, depending on the specific circumstances. The interest will be paid according to the bank's loan interest rate."

"What do you guys think?"

The ninjas were cursing inwardly.

How is it?

Of course it's not very good!

We've all been struggling financially for so long, and now that the money's in our accounts, you're still dragging it out? Do you think we're invisible?

"As the head of the Uchiha clan, I agree to this plan first."

Uchiha Nan symbolically raised his hand, then looked around at the crowd.

Yeah, it's really annoying that everyone's looking at me like that, but it's not a big problem.

Uchiha felt confident in his abilities, given his own strength; he didn't believe anyone would be so overconfident as to directly oppose him.

"Clan head Hyuga, strike a pose!"

Uchiha Nan looked at Hyuga Takuma with a smile and gave him a look that said, "You're my ally, why aren't you standing up for me now?"

"Ah, this..."

Hyuga Takuma was on the verge of tears. He really wanted to disagree, but Uchiha Nan's meaning was very clear.

If they are allies, you should stand up for Lei.

With this betrayal at such a crucial moment, Takuma Hyuga can imagine what the future holds for the Hyuga clan—they will inevitably be targeted.

All eyes were on Hinata Takuma, eagerly awaiting his arrival to utter those three words: "Disagree!"

However, Uchiha Nan knew the Hyuga clan's character and would never be the first to act.

If they had the guts, they wouldn't have pushed their clan leader's younger brother out to die in his place and quell the anger of the Hidden Cloud Village.

What Uchiha Nan found most shameful was that all of this was done in self-defense.

"agree!"

Hinata Takuma managed to utter the word "agree," feeling as if all his strength had been drained away.

"good!"

"Noble character and integrity!"

"Everyone, let's give a round of applause to the Hyuga clan leader!"

Uchiha Nan led the applause, while the other clan leaders looked like they had swallowed fly droppings and could only follow along with Uchiha Nan's applause.

The leaders are applauding, and you're still keeping your hands down? Do you even want to keep your job?

One done!

Uchiha Nan turned his gaze to Senju Momoma.

"Clan Chief Senju, the Senju and Uchiha clans co-founded Konoha, so they naturally understand Konoha's difficulties best. Now is the time to unleash the Will of Fire."

"I believe in Momoma Senju as the pillar of the Senju clan."

Uchiha Nan spoke several sentences in one breath, frantically praising Senju Momoma and the Senju clan.

"So, what's your opinion, Chief Senju?"

Senju Momoka was stunned. His path had been completely blocked by Uchiha Nan. This whole string of hats he was wearing was almost taller than him. Did he even have a chance to disagree?

He simply couldn't bring himself to say it. The Senju clan had always prided themselves on being the legitimate successors of Konoha and the inheritors of the Will of Fire. If they faltered at this crucial moment, they would lose their political standing.

"agree!"

Senju Momoma struggled internally for a moment, wanting to say no. He was short of money right now, and restarting the Hashirama cell experiment would cost an astronomical sum, possibly hundreds of millions of dollars.

However, Momoma Senju eventually yielded. Political stance was more important than money, and it was the foundation for the Senju clan's survival in Konoha.

Another one sorted out!

Uchiha Nan was secretly delighted. With the three great clans of Konoha having already taken the lead in expressing their stance, the rest were no longer a concern.

"Nara clan chief, the Ino-Shika-Cho clans are all of one mind. What are your opinions?"

Uchiha Nan looked at Nara Shikato. He would make good use of this person in the future, so he decided to test him first and see if he was up to the task.

Nara Shikagawa has already seen the situation clearly: the tide is in Uchiha Nan's hands, and those who go against the tide will only face death!

"It's better to be decisive," Nara Shikahara replied almost instantly, without the slightest hesitation.

"For the sake of Konoha, our three clans naturally agree!"

"very good!"

Uchiha Nan praised him, quite pleased with Senju Shikagawa's tact.

"And what about the rest of you?"

"Who's in favor, and who's opposed?"

Uchiha Nan was too lazy to ask each person individually, so he directly asked all the remaining people.

"If you disagree, you can speak up. Every family has its own difficulties, and as the clan leader, I understand how challenging it is to maintain a family."

Uchiha Nan wanted to make his eating manners look better, so he added a sentence.

I'm so angry!

I really want to beat up Uchiha Nan!

The remaining clan leaders were filled with resentment. They felt that even with a knife to their throats, the other party was still smiling and asking if they were satisfied.

Is this something a human being could do?

Unfortunately, they were destined never to have the chance to realize such a dream in their lifetime.

"agree"

"agree"

"agree"

"."

The pleasant sounds of agreement filled Uchiha Nan with joy.

"Okay, the proposal passes unanimously!"

"As expected, everyone here is a pillar of Konoha, and each of you has fully grasped the spirit of the Will of Fire."

"All of this is for Konoha!"

Uchiha Nan's official speech became increasingly fluent, and his slogans became increasingly loud. He contracted an illness; the leader's illness had infected Uchiha Nan.

"Today's meeting has come to a successful conclusion. Let's give them a round of applause!"

Uchiha Nan was the first to stand up and applaud, and the others followed suit, their eyes glistening with tears, seemingly moved by the spirit of today's meeting.

Of course not! These are tears of pain, for the family is about to face hardship again!

However, Uchiha Nan was in a good mood. After the meeting ended, everyone went home, and Uchiha Nan returned to his own little home.

Feng and Ling had already prepared lunch and were waiting for him at home. Uchiha Nan ate three big bowls!

After finishing his meal, Uchiha Nan felt he was in a great mood and should do something to celebrate. He still had ten chances to draw a prize, so he decided to use them on this auspicious day.

Uchiha Nan locked himself in his room and, as usual, began by praying.

"Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva, Jade Emperor, Jesus."

"Please bless me so I can get my money back!"
