Naruto: The Infinite New World

Chapter 19 The Uchiha's Foolish Elders

Intercolumnar cells!?

How could an Uchiha like him possibly touch that thing?

Even after arriving home, Uchiha Kin still couldn't believe it.

If Hiruzen Sarutobi found out, would he just kill him?

But he didn't do it voluntarily!

They won't listen.

That's fine.

He could only imagine what he saw on the fourth floor, the information about Hashirama's cells in his backpack, and some of the ninjutsu he had chosen.

I still can't believe it and feel a little worried.

It was hard to tell whether it was a pleasant surprise or a shock, but it just hit him on the head.

"If I activate the Kaleidoscope and combine it with Hashirama cells, I'll at least be a Shadow."

Unfortunately, the biggest challenge for Jin is the Mangekyou Sharingan.

He hasn't even awakened his Sharingan yet.

As Jin opened the door and stepped into the house, he saw a figure he didn't want to see sitting upright at the coffee table in the reception area.

What a disappointment.

"The young clan leader is really free, he actually has time to come and see a nobody like me."

Upon seeing the person who suddenly appeared, Jin immediately began to mock him.

Who else but Fugaku Uchiha could have entered his house without making a sound?

"Could you please not break into a house next time? If people know, it's fine, but if they don't, they might think it's a thief."

Do they really think his door is just for show?

Fugaku Uchiha remained calm, his expression unaffected by Kin's taunts, and he waited until Kin finished spewing his trash talk before speaking.

"I heard you've been taken in as a disciple by Jiraiya-sama?"

Jin gave a cold laugh.

"You already know, my current status is not necessarily much weaker than yours, young clan leader."

Jiraiya's disciple status appears to grant him no special privileges on the surface, but in reality, everything is kept hidden.

The direct line of ninjas is no joke.

This also represents the ticket to becoming Hokage.

Unfortunately, his surname is Uchiha.

"You actually got accepted as a disciple by Jiraiya-sama."

Fugaku Uchiha's voice trembled; he still couldn't believe it.

how many years.

Since the death of Kagami Uchiha, no one from the Uchiha clan has been able to enter the Hokage system.

This completely removed the Uchiha clan from Konoha's leadership and gradually made them a target.

But the Uchiha clan often produces geniuses, so it's not surprising that some disciples are taken back.

But why this piece of trash who brought shame to the Uchiha clan?

Fugaku looked at Kin with a complicated expression.

He could accept anyone from the Uchiha clan, but he just couldn't accept Jin's comeback.

After all, Uchiha Kin was like a stain on the Uchiha emblem.

If he couldn't accept it, then no one else could.

He could imagine the upheaval that would engulf the clan.

"The facts speak for themselves."

Kim sat down at the other end of the table, propping his chin up with his hand and looking at Fugaku.

"What? Is my being Jiraiya's student getting in your way? If you're so capable, go and complain to Konoha. Don't come looking for trouble with me."

Fugaku looked down on him, and he looked down on Fugaku.

Why invite trouble upon yourself?

"Young clan leader," Jin said sarcastically.

Fugaku fell silent. He didn't care about being scolded as long as his clan could return to the center of Konoha.

The fact that the central figure is Uchiha Kin makes things very complicated.

Fugaku fell silent, and neither did Kim; they simply stared at each other, wide-eyed.

It all depends on who can hold on.

In the end, it was Fugaku who couldn't hold on any longer.

"The elders want to see you."

"When?"

"Now."

Jin frowned. He had never met these Uchiha elders before, so he wouldn't comment on them.

But someone who could make Fugaku the clan leader must not be very smart.

He hadn't expected that being a direct descendant of the Hokage would cause the current Uchiha to have such a strong stress response.

This is before they've been forced into the same situation as in later generations.

"Then lead the way."

Jin raised his head.

These elders will eventually need to be met.

Hopefully, it won't turn out the way he expected.

They're all a bunch of idiots.

Nanga Shrine.

The pillars of flame ignited the fires on either side, illuminating several elderly men sitting in chairs.

The raging flames obscured their faces.

All that could be seen were their bloodshot pupils, with three tomoe swirling around them.

The Sharingan of the Uchiha clan.

Kim stood in the middle, being watched by them.

The pressure from that sharp gaze was even greater than that from Orochimaru, but it lacked killing intent and instead failed to suppress his actions.

The old man standing at the front spoke.

"Uchiha Kin, you haven't awakened your Sharingan by the age of twelve?"

Jin endured the pressure and responded with an indifferent attitude.

"How could something like that be so easy to open?"

The Sharingan typically awakens between the ages of twelve and sixteen.

After the age of sixteen, the possibility of opening one's eyes is basically eliminated.

The earlier one's eyes open, the better their aptitude.

If someone awakens their Sharingan before the age of twelve, they are a genius of the Uchiha clan.

No other talent could compare to the Sharingan for the Uchiha clan.

"How dare you!" the elder beside him shouted angrily.

That's the Uchiha's bloodline limit, not some random thing.

Jin ignored him and just looked at the person in the main seat in front of him.

Everyone else is just there to make up the numbers; the person in front of you has to be the one in charge.

The First Elder, Uchiha Kakashi.

He was an old man who survived the Warring States period, and even managed to protect himself during the rebellion that the Uchiha clan once launched, eventually seizing the greatest power within the Uchiha clan.

I heard all of this from other Uchiha.

The Uchiha clan no longer has a clan leader. He doesn't know why the clan leader died, but he does know that Fugaku was already designated as the next clan leader from birth.

Let alone Konoha, the Uchiha clan is no different.

The succession is all predetermined.

"Alright." Huo He stopped the Third Elder from continuing to berate Jin.

His crimson Sharingan calmly gazed at Kim.

"Uchiha Kin, I hope that for the sake of the Uchiha clan, you will monitor the movements of the Hokage's faction."

The death of Uchiha Kagami is shrouded in suspicion, and the Fire Core also distrusts the higher-ups of Konoha.

unless.

The Uchiha clan produced a Hokage.

As for Uchiha Kin, he is a stain on the Uchiha clan.

He doesn't deserve it.

"I refuse!" Jin refused without even thinking. This kind of thankless task would ultimately bring bad luck to everyone involved.

Uchiha knew about the Hokage's movements, but he also lost the Hokage's trust.

Why should I?!

"Um?!"

Fire Core's face darkened. Even though Gold couldn't see it, he knew the other person's face wouldn't look good.

"Don't forget that you have Uchiha blood flowing through your veins."

"I'm really sorry, but I'm a selfish person and I won't make selfless contributions to the family."

Jin's cold voice reached everyone's ears.

It was like throwing a spark into a fire.

"Damn it! You don't even remember the glory of the Uchiha clan!"

"Expel this piece of trash from his ancestral lineage!!"

"Damn it! A selfish person like you doesn't deserve to be called an Uchiha!!"

Jin ignored their angry shouts.

He never felt any warmth from any of the Uchiha clan members.

If you are a genius from the Uchiha clan, you can feel the warmth of spring in the Uchiha clan, and the elders are all kind and approachable.

pity.

He's a "good-for-nothing".

In the Uchiha clan, even their dogs would step on a piece of trash.

The man with the golden face wore a cold smile.

Fire Core remained silent, but seeing Uchiha Kin's cold smile, he seemed to understand something and asked, "Do you harbor resentment towards the Uchiha?"

Jin rubbed his temples and organized his thoughts.

"Old man, you're getting more and more senile. And you're still holding grudges? Do you think you deserve them?"

"A bunch of good-for-nothings who only know how to brag?"

Jin's words were ruthless; he was not one to fawn over others.

He may be a coward, but that doesn't mean he'll swallow his anger when his life isn't in danger.

Even if it didn't threaten his life, Hiruzen Sarutobi would dare to curse him.

How could we possibly go along with those shameless old Uchiha?

It can be said that his words offended the entire Uchiha clan.

But he doesn't care.

They didn't dare do anything to him; the Hokage's direct lineage is no joke.

If anything were to happen to him in the Uchiha clan, Danzo Shimura would be the first to rush into the Uchiha and avenge him.

He understood this principle, and so did the elders.

At this moment, Huo He felt a surge of anger rush to his head, and decades of composure and self-control shattered in an instant.

"you!!"

He pointed angrily at Jin, but for a moment he was at a loss for words.

"If that's all there is to it, then I'll step down."

Jin curled his lip, completely disregarding them.

If he had any sense, he wouldn't have acted this way. Did they really think he was one of those stupid ninjas who would listen to a few words of deception?

Then they are very wrong.

"Uchiha Kin!" Fire Core called out sharply, stopping him.

Jin leaned back and looked at him, the firelight illuminating only half of his face as he awaited Huo He's next words.

Huo He took a deep breath to calm himself.

"Don't forget, everything you have is given to you by the Uchiha clan. Your abilities, your... smooth growth, even becoming Jiraiya's disciple, are all because you share the Uchiha surname!"

He meant to talk about talent, but unfortunately, he couldn't see any talent in Kim at all.

Jin was so angry he laughed.

"My abilities are self-taught, and my growth is a gift from my parents. You just didn't stop me, and you think that's a favor? What does becoming Jiraiya's disciple have to do with the Uchiha clan?"

"And there's something I need to remind you of: the Uchiha are the Uchiha. You don't represent the Uchiha. You're just a bunch of useless trash who flaunt the Uchiha name."

With a "crack," the fiery core crushed the armrest of the chair, and the three tomoe in its pupils spun rapidly.

"It's alright, I'll be going now. Don't look for me next time, I'm afraid Jiraiya-sensei will misunderstand."

"Snap!" "Snap!" "Snap!" One by one, the armrests of the stools were damaged.

Jin is gone.

All that remained were a group of incompetent and furious Uchiha elders.

"Absurd!!" the Third Elder roared.

No Uchiha had ever dared to insult these elders like that, except for Uchiha Madara.

"Don't worry, Jiraiya took him as a disciple because of the Uchiha clan. Once he truly understands his talent, Jiraiya will naturally give him up."

"When the time comes, we'll let him know that he's just a good-for-nothing who can't be helped, and that he really thinks he's qualified to become Jiraiya's apprentice."

They want to see.

At that time, he will be Uchiha Kin.

What gives me the confidence to face them?
