Naruto: The Infinite New World

Chapter 173 Uchiha Council

The Uchiha clan holds a monthly gathering.

It could also be called a work summary meeting, which mostly consisted of discussing trivial matters that occurred within the security department.

After all, the entire security department belongs to the Uchiha clan, so it's reasonable for the clan meeting to become a working meeting.

"Why would the residents of Konoha fight over a hundred taels of silver on the ground? I don't understand."

"Why would someone send flowers to the security headquarters and disrupt our work? I found out it was a few female ninjas. Should we arrest them?"

"Especially those young female ninjas, they always block our patrol routes. Could they be spies? Should we arrest them and interrogate them?"

How do you torture them?!

"Ahem." Uchiha Kin coughed twice.

Listen.

Are these bastards summarizing or just reminiscing about Versailles?

"Why doesn't anyone send me flowers? Why are there no girls who admire me?"

Jin fell into deep thought; his appearance should be quite good.

The Uchiha clan is known for producing many handsome men and beautiful women.

If You Nu Zhiwei knew about Jin's troubles, she would understand the reason.

Jin's attention was completely drawn to the attractive older women passing by, and he completely ignored the young girl who had developed feelings for him.

In the world of old perverts, there are no figures like those skinny little sprouts.

For example, someone like Kushina.

Who would be interested in a bunch of airports?

Real men, of course, prefer curvy, older women.

The entire Uchiha clan is discussing the details of the work and how to handle it.

The leader, Huo He, and several elders were all resting with their eyes closed, as they were only responsible for matters within the clan.

He doesn't care about matters concerning the police department.

Once everyone had finished their discussion...

Huo He picked up his cane and slammed it heavily on the ground.

"Now, let's talk about how to elevate the status of the Uchiha clan."

This caused a solemn expression to appear on everyone's faces.

The current problem of the Uchiha clan being suppressed by the village is not as serious as the future situation where they will be driven to the brink of despair.

These ninjas, unaware of the future, are already feeling the Hokage's brutal suppression of the Uchiha clan.

The main reason can be traced back to the final falling out between Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju, and later to the rebellion led by Setsuna Uchiha during the Second Hokage's reign.

This caused the Uchiha clan to completely detach themselves from the core of Konoha.

Even within the Uchiha clan, quite a few people actually felt guilty about this.

Although both parties involved understood Konoha's malice towards the Uchiha, they showed no remorse whatsoever.

One was killed by the First Hokage, and the other was imprisoned. No one dared to comment on the former, while the latter was described as a treacherous, cunning, and selfish ninja.

In addition, they couldn't resist the village's brainwashing and the Uchiha's arrogant and self-righteous habits, which was also the key reason why the Uchiha kept backing down.

"I think we should open up the police headquarters and let other people from Konoha Village in, so that we can maintain closer ties with the village."

A man spoke up and made a suggestion.

The police department does indeed belong to the Uchiha clan, but due to its responsibilities, it has gradually drifted away from the villagers.

"No!"

Immediately, someone refuted this.

"The police department was handed over to the Uchiha by the Second Hokage; no one is allowed to touch it!"

His words were agreed upon by most people.

The police department has considerable power, but the village receives funding every year, and the amount has never decreased.

They receive more money throughout the year than they do in terms of completing tasks.

Who could give up such an easily attainable benefit?

Ultimately, only a minority of people can see the truth beyond their own interests.

However, the person who first made the suggestion did not lack support.

More than ten people were instantly divided into two groups.

The argument was gradually escalating.

"Thump!"

Huo He struck the ground heavily with his cane.

"Let's not go off-topic."

Fire Core interrupted everyone in a deep voice, saying that what they needed was to elevate the status of the Uchiha clan, not to discuss whether or not to open up the guard department.

"If we want to improve our status, we naturally need to get closer to the villagers and the Hokage."

"The villagers just need our protection. Befriend the Hokage? Which Hokage has ever shown any kindness to the Uchiha?"

This time the topic stayed on track, and the discussion turned to methods for improving one's social standing.

It was also clear that there were two groups of people.

The doves advocate getting close to and integrating with the villagers, and getting close to the Hokage.

The hawks, on the other hand, were refuting the other side.

"Then what do you suggest we do?"

The doves, who had been constantly refuted, got annoyed. They spent half the day refuting the proposals without offering any other suggestions. Before they could even finish their suggestions, they were belittled as worthless.

"Of course, the Uchiha clan should produce a Hokage! That would solve all the problems."

At this moment, everyone's eyes turned to the silent Uchiha Fugaku, while a small number of people looked at Uchiha Kin, who was watching the show.

These two are the most likely candidates to become Hokage.

Both the doves and the hawks dream of having an Uchiha clan member become Hokage.

Compared to Kim's limited attention, Fugaku was the focus of everyone's attention.

The argument also stopped.

Even the fire core looked towards Fugaku.

"Fugaku, are you confident you can compete for the Hokage position?"

Fugaku remained silent for a moment, after all, as the future clan leader, he was the one on whom high hopes were placed.

"You can only become Hokage if you are recognized by everyone, not if you become Hokage and then get recognized."

Although Fugaku merely repeated Hiruzen Sarutobi's words, he revealed a great deal of his attitude.

He is a dove.

The hawks all looked grim. Ever since that incident, the hawks have been leaderless, and now even the future clan leader is leaning towards the doves.

A sudden burst of laughter drew everyone's attention.

All eyes turned to Uchiha Kin.

"Uchiha Kin, do you have any objections?"

Huo He asked in a deep voice.

"I have no objections, but I was amused by our young clan leader's silliness. Sorry, you guys continue."

Kim mercilessly mocked Fugaku.

Everyone glared at him angrily; he was their young clan leader.

Even Fugaku looked unwell.

After all, no one can stand being called stupid in front of everyone.

"Jin, if you have any opinions about me, you can speak up."

"Uchiha Fugaku said in a deep voice."

"You?" Jin looked at Fugaku, shook his head, and sneered, "You're so stupid you're beyond saving. Even Hiruzen Sarutobi wasn't universally accepted as Hokage, yet you take his words as gospel. Tch."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's position as Hokage was not chosen; it was appointed by Tobirama Senju.

Fugaku wanted to refute, but couldn't find a reason for it.

Hiruzen Sarutobi did not become Hokage according to his own account.

"If you, an idiot, really become the clan leader, then I'll see how the Uchiha clan is wiped out by your hand."

Jin's words stirred up a huge wave of discussion.

"How dare you!"

"He's the young clan leader!"

"Uchiha Kin! You've gone too far!"

Everyone glared angrily at Uchiha Kin.
