Uchiha Nan stood there, his smile growing richer, thoroughly enjoying the cheers of the crowd.

"Iron Fire, the clan meeting is set for tomorrow afternoon. The location remains the same, Naka Shrine."

"Yes!"

Uchiha Tekka nodded in agreement. Then, Uchiha Nan waved his hand, dismissing everyone.

In just one morning, Uchiha Nan's actions had caused a huge stir within the Uchiha clan, the shockwaves momentarily even overshadowing the news of Tobirama Senju's death.

Uchiha Nan intended to overthrow Clan Head Uchiha Tomita and take his place.

One bombshell after another, the Uchiha members hadn't enjoyed such juicy gossip in a long time.

It was satisfying, truly satisfying!

At this moment...

In Uchiha Tomita's home, the spacious and bright living room now felt somewhat cramped. Over a dozen Uchiha clan members were staring intently at Uchiha Tomita, who sat upright.

Uchiha Tomita's wife, Uchiha Miya, carried a tea tray, busy serving water to the Uchiha present. The usual snacks prepared for guests were insufficient, causing Uchiha Miya a headache.

So many people arriving at once, they truly weren't prepared.

However, the Uchiha seated here had no mood to enjoy tea and snacks while drinking. As loyal supporters of Uchiha Tomita, they were at a loss for what to do about the events that had transpired in Konoha over the past two days.

First, Tobirama Senju was killed during negotiations. They hadn't even fully processed this shocking news.

Then, the clan's genius, Uchiha Nan, shattered everyone's perceptions and directly challenged the Uchiha Clan Head. It was rumored that he was the one who first spread the news of Tobirama Senju's death.

They were too familiar with Uchiha Nan. If he hadn't activated the Uchiha's exclusive Sharingan, one could say he was from the Senju clan without any fault.

Uchiha Tomita held his pipe, taking puff after puff, trying to alleviate his inner anxiety.

Let alone his subordinates being bewildered, he himself was clueless. In just two days, the situation had changed as rapidly as if decades had passed.

It was so fast that Uchiha Tomita felt he was getting old and couldn't keep up with the times.

Just a few days ago, Uchiha Tomita was planning to demand more compensation from Tobirama Senju after the peace treaty was signed.

To fight this great war, the ninjas cultivated within the clan had all been deployed to the battlefield.

The value of weapons like Shuriken and Kunai provided by the clan's weapon industry to Konoha was an astronomical sum.

Soldier Pills were countless!

This was all money!

Ninjjas risked their lives for a living, wasn't it all for money?

All sorts of compensation, Tobirama Senju had been dragging his feet on all of it. All of this would inevitably lead to a heated debate.

Bang. Now, it was all gone.

Tobirama Senju was dead!

Suddenly dead, without any preparation.

Uchiha Nan, the captain of the security force he had promoted, had gone mad for some reason, completely changing his usual demeanor and aspiring to overthrow him and become the Uchiha Clan Head.

Before long, the living room of Uchiha Tomita's house was filled with smoke. Half of the Uchiha present were old smokers. They had initially planned to hold back at the Clan Head's house and smoke outside.

Now that the Clan Head had set the precedent, they might as well join in.

Sip, puff...

An Uchiha exhaled a smoke ring. Seeing Uchiha Tomita still smoking to himself, he was getting impatient and wanted to say something.

"Clan Head, what should we do about the clan meeting tomorrow afternoon?"

As one person spoke, the others immediately chimed in.

"Yes, Clan Head, that guy Uchiha Nan has probably been planning this for a long time. He was the first to get the news about Lord Tobirama Senju's death."

Uchiha Tomita recalled Uchiha Nan's past behavior, which was completely different from his current actions.

Old and wise, having been Clan Head for over a decade, he was skilled at understanding people's hearts. He truly hadn't seen through Uchiha Nan before.

A disguise!

Could someone truly maintain such a long-term disguise?

He only revealed his true colors after Tobirama Senju's death. Uchiha Nan had long wanted to become Hokage!

Uchiha Tomita marveled inwardly at Uchiha Nan, truly a genius of the Uchiha, with top-tier temperament and strength.

This point in time was indeed the closest the Uchiha had ever been to the Hokage position. However, Uchiha Tomita couldn't quite figure it out.

What gave Uchiha Nan the right?

He asked himself, Uchiha Nan's strength was immense. This morning, he had easily defeated Kagami Uchiha. Within the Uchiha clan, few were stronger than him.

Even if he himself faced Uchiha Nan, he wouldn't have absolute confidence in victory. Perhaps in terms of combat power, Uchiha Nan was already the number one person in the Uchiha.

But did being Clan Head rely solely on combat power?

You think I've been clan head all these years for nothing? Uchiha Tomita quickly scanned the Uchiha in the room.

Almost all of them had awakened the Three-Tomoe Sharingan, an elite squad composed of Uchiha Jonin, led by himself. They could even kill Tobirama Senju, but the price would be unacceptable for the Uchiha.

What good is strength if you have no backing!

To get by, you need power and connections!

Don't think that just because Tobirama is dead, I'm easy prey. Without the Mangekyo Sharingan, there's no qualitative difference between Uchiha.

"Alright, no more complaining."

"Uchiha Nan is a genius within the clan, fresh from the battlefield, so it's understandable he's arrogant. We're all family. I, the clan head, was chosen by everyone after Madara left Konoha."

"Since Uchiha Nan believes he's more suited to be clan head and has even requested a clan meeting, let's discuss it at the meeting. Let the Uchiha clansmen see clearly who is more suitable to be the Uchiha clan head."

Uchiha Tomita interrupted the discussion among the Uchiha, speaking calmly, but the chill in his tone made everyone present feel it.

Uchiha Nan is going to have a very bad time this time!

"Clan Head, you know me. I will definitely support you!"

"Me too, me too!"

"That brat Uchiha Nan is too arrogant, he has no idea of the sacrifices the clan head has made for the clan over the years."

"We must make Uchiha Nan pay!"

For a moment, the Uchiha collectively pledged their loyalty to Uchiha Tomita.

"Alright, no matter what, Uchiha Nan is a genius of the clan, a hero of Konoha. He's just young and impulsive. When you all were the same age as Uchiha Nan and just as strong, you might have been even more arrogant than him."

Uchiha Tomita interrupted them, settling the attitude towards Uchiha Nan. He was still tolerant of Uchiha Nan.

Geniuses are always treated with tolerance, no matter where they are.

When I'm a bit older, and Fugaku is a bit older, if that child Fugaku can't bear the heavy responsibility of the Uchiha, Uchiha Nan would be a good choice.

But not now. He can step down from the position of clan head voluntarily, but he will never tolerate being forced out.
