Naka Shrine temporarily built two attics, one large and one small, for the Uchiha Clan ordinary tribesmen and elders to rest.
The snowflakes fell sparsely and gradually grew longer. Konoha was already December. Looking at the thick dark clouds in the sky, it was destined to be a sleepless heavy snowfall.
Uchiha Hiko stretched out a hand to catch the snowflakes. Just from his fingers that were as dry as tree trunks, you can tell that he is very old.
Uchiha Hiko He held the snowflake in his palm with his five fingers together, feeling cold. In half an hour, it's the clan leader's succession ceremony.
Uchiha Hiko was very popular with the Uchiha Clan back then. With his qualifications, he should have been given the position of elder.
But since Jing's death, he has completely left the center of family power. Without the quarrels and struggles over power that inevitably hurt harmony, it would be better to "come out" this time.
Even some old people who were unfamiliar with him were happy to talk a few words. Even the third elder Uchiha Hiro, who had just retired from a high position, and the deputy captain Police Force, Uchiha Kan, who was fucked to the end just last year, were no exception.
Such a group of old guys who once or still hold real power, have qualifications, merits, and family background, speak freely, especially Uchiha Hiro, who is now yelling at Chen, who is about to take over as the patriarch.
That's all for reform. Even Police Force, which I had held in my hands for thirty years, was lost. Is this the patriarch of the Uchiha Clan, or the patriarch of the village?
Uchiha Hiro retired not long ago, and he is famous for his irritable temper.
Listening to his cursing, the old people around him were silent and no one echoed him. Uchiha Kan, who was once Uchiha Yama's right-hand man, didn't even dare to answer a word.
Uchiha Hiro was still angry after scolding him for a full minute. He was about to blame the death of former clan leader Uchiha Yama when he saw Uchiha Kan out of the corner of his eye and winked at him. Just when he was wondering, he received a hard punch.
Uchiha Hiro was stunned. He turned his head and punched his face again. His nose and face were suddenly bruised and swollen.
Finally seeing that it was the dirty trick of the old bastard Uchiha Hiko, Uchiha Hiro was furious.
He immediately punched the opponent in the head and cursed angrily, "Uchiha Hiko, I've wanted to beat you for a day or two.
What did you say back then?!
He kept saying that he would lead the family to glory together, but not long after First Great Ninja War ended, he became a shrunken old bastard!
What, I scolded that ignorant Uchiha Chen, what did it do to you?! He's not the clan leader yet, it's none of your business! "
The two old guys were immediately pulled apart by their respective old men.
Taking advantage of the opportunity for the opponent to curse, Uchiha Hiko, who was pulled back, kicked Uchiha Hiro several times with Shinobi World's legendary Egg-Chasing Shadowless Kick.
He said angrily, "Don't get the fuck involved with Chen! Okay, if you scold him, then I want to ask you, First Great Ninja War, who saved you back then?
It's a mirror!
Who told me personally back then that he wanted to support Jing, and also said that if he had a granddaughter in the future, she would be his daughter-in-law?
After Jing's death, Uchiha Yama bribed you to become the third elder. After being an elder for so many years, you feel that you are something extraordinary, right? "
"Don't think that I don't know that your son has occupied several mineral properties in the Hao clan and is making more than a fortune every day.
With the convenience of Police Force, you bully the vendors in the village and Civilian Ninja, Uchiha Clan's face has been completely humiliated by you! "
Uchiha Hiro was stunned for a moment, then Three Tomoe Sharingan appeared and cursed:
"Fuck you, tell me clearly, who has taken over the clan's minerals and who has oppressed the common people?! My son can't do such a shameful thing!"
Uchiha Hiko got the strength from nowhere, broke away from the pull of several old people, and punched Uchiha Hiro in the face.
"What the whole clan knows, only you, a dim-eyed old immortal, don't know!"
The entire attic fell silent for a moment.
Uchiha Hiro looked around, Uchiha Kan was still calm and speechless. Many old people avoided the eyes of this former "Third Elder".
Finally, his lips trembled, and he waved his arms, asking no one to "help" him. He slumped to the ground and gasped for air.
Uchiha Hiko was still angry, so he stepped forward and kicked Uchiha Hiro in the air.
Sixth Elder was so frightened that he quickly hugged her tightly.
If this really goes ahead, the clan leader succession ceremony will become the funeral of the third elder, and Uchiha Clan will not become a big joke.
Uchiha Hiko didn't even think about kicking him. He took a deep breath and patted the back of Sixth Elder's hand.
The latter slowly let go of his hand, and Uchiha Hiko sat in front of Uchiha Hiro, sitting opposite each other.
He turned his head and looked at the sky where the snow was falling, and sighed softly, "Hong, we old guys who are half buried in the earth are always talking about restoring Uchiha Clan to the glory of Warring States Period."
"I know that you are not reluctant to give up the power in your hands, nor are you people who want to take advantage of the clan.
What you are most afraid of in your heart is that this family, like Senju, will suddenly decline and disappear.
You stick together, and you exclude other Konoha families, and even exclude Third Hokage. But the more you do this, the further we will drift away from the village. "
"You are not blind, wouldn't you know what Chen has done these years? Tell me with your conscience, has he ever brought shame to the family on the battlefield?
Invading Hidden Mist Village, capturing Hanzō, and defeating Hidden Stone Village, who in the clan can achieve these feats? Uchiha Yama Can he be resurrected?
Or can you, a third elder who can't even control your son, do it?? "
Uchiha Hiko withdrew his gaze and looked at Uchiha Hiro, "Jing owes nothing to the clan, especially Chen.
Since we can't lead the family to glory, and we can't do it well even if we want to, then we can just leave it to the young people.
No matter what happens, don't hold back. "
Uchiha Hiko patted Uchiha Hiro on the shoulder, then stood up, bent down, helped him stand up, and helped to pat away the dust from the shoe prints on his chest that he had stepped on.
Uchiha Hiko, Uchiha Hiro, Sixth Elder, the seventh elder, and the four old people walked to the door side by side.
Heavy snowfall, hundreds of Uchiha Ninja, were divided into two battle formations in the east-west direction, leaving a line of path in the middle.
Genin, Chunin, Jonin are all arranged in distinct layers, and their momentum is amazing.
Mikoto, Kyoko and Obito stood in the attic, holding their breath and looking at the Naka Shrine with fiery eyes.
There is no one on Naka Shrine, except for the Six Paths Fan standing upright, it is also empty.
Great Elder Uchiha Yun stood below the shrine, holding an ordinary bamboo lantern in his hand, with Uchiha Clan Crest and Tomoe symbolizing Sharingan on it.
Soon, a young man wearing Uchiha Clan Robe appeared at Torii Gate.
He walked through the crowd, walked to Great Elder, and took the ordinary bamboo strip lantern.
This is Uchiha Clan, a tradition preserved from the Warring States Period era. I hope that the new patriarch can take over the light that swayed along with the troubled times, strive to pass on the fire, and lead the family to everlasting prosperity.
Chen held a lantern and slowly walked up to Naka Shrine.
Great Elder looked at the back, put his hands in his sleeves, and smiled from ear to ear.
Chen pulled out Gunbai with his right hand, continued to walk up the steps, stood in the center, Mangekyo Sharingan appeared in his eyes, then held Gunbai, and suddenly shouted, "Uchiha Clan!"
"Uchiha Clan!" The ninja below also shouted suddenly.
The snow became even more chaotic, and Uchiha Ninja, which was covered in snow, became even more impressive.
At the end of Konoha Year 39, the position of Uchiha Clan Leader, which had been vacant for five years, finally ushered in a successor.
This year, Land of Fire had a heavy snowfall.
