A Vast Clan

Just then, Uchiha Youji spoke up, saying with a serious expression, "Can I go with you? I also want to awaken the Sharingan, especially Dad's Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, it's just too powerful."

These Uchiha Clan children are fundamentally different from other families. From a young age, they have a strong desire for power, especially seeing their family members, who are mostly highly skilled, naturally learning what power truly means.

Looking at Tomoki's expectant face, Uchiha Tomoki shook his head and said seriously, "Tomorrow is Saturday. Dad will be at the Uchiha Clan. You can go and ask him yourselves!"

As Uchiha Tomoki grew older, his appearance became increasingly similar to that of Uchiha Qingcheng. Since Tsunade had lost her water and electricity, he was raised as the next clan head, and Qingcheng took him under his wing from a young age, teaching him everything personally. Whatever advanced Ninjutsu or valuable items Uchiha Tomoki asked for, Qingcheng would give them to him without hesitation.

And most importantly, Tsunade also loved Tomoki very much, and even wanted to change Tomoki's surname to the Senju Clan, but every time it was rejected by Qingcheng, and in the end Tsunade gave up on it.

Under Qingcheng's tutelage, Little Tomoki's personality became increasingly cheerful. He not only learned about cunning and ruthlessness but also about the ways of the king. Little Tomoki had been thoroughly trained by Qingcheng from a young age. And Konoha lost another upright Uchiha Clan clansman.

Therefore, Uchiha Tomoki's way of speaking is more mature and composed, no longer the stubborn way of the Uchiha Clan.

Just then, a child wearing sunglasses smiled and said, "Big Tomoki, could you take me with you to awaken the Sharingan? I have immense admiration for the power of the Uchiha Clan. Could you please let me join the Uchiha Clan as well? Please!"

Looking at the enthusiastic Aburame Shino, Uchiha Youyong said with a look of disdain, "You don't even have Uchiha Clan blood, yet you want to awaken the Sharingan? You're just delusional. Go to a two-dollar store, buy a pair of two-dollar contact lenses, put them on your eyes, and you think you can awaken the Sharingan? I haven't even awakened the Sharingan yet. Are you trying to provoke me? I'm tempted to give you two big hoods."

Uchiha Youmeng's personality is more impulsive than that of the average Uchiha Clan, and he's also more easily agitated. When angry, he's prone to unleashing his Uchiha Flying Kick, and he speaks very bluntly, never holding back his temper. Therefore, upon hearing Aburame Shino's words...

His face was filled with anger, and Tomoki said sternly, "You scum, what are you doing joining the Uchiha Clan? Don't affect our Uchiha Clan's genes. Besides, your Aburame Clan isn't bad either, why are you such a coward? Believe me, I can take you Uchiha OK!"

Upon hearing this, Aburame Shino was instantly terrified, breaking out in a cold sweat. She said awkwardly, "I was just joking, trying to lighten the mood, hahaha."

Then everyone sat quietly back in their seats, as if nothing had happened, and waited for Iruka-sensei to call "school dismissal."

Looking at the embarrassed Aburame Shino Uchiha Tomoki said seriously, "Our Uchiha Clan no longer accepts outsiders. That line was drawn with Uncle Toraji. When have you ever seen the Uchiha Clan accept unofficial members?"

Just then, Iruka-sensei called out again, "Class, when you go back, please be careful. Those of you whose parents are coming to pick you up, go with them first. Those of you who aren't coming to pick you up, don't wander around alone. Konoha has been expanded three times now, and there are many streets that I don't recognize."

Over the course of three and a half years, Konoha has undergone three major expansions. The third expansion involved demolishing the Konoha walls and then expanding towards the Konoha Forest. Each expansion was driven by a surge in Konoha's population.

The first expansion brought Konoha's population to 900,000. The second expansion increased the population to 1.1 million. The third expansion brought Konoha's population to over 1.3 million.

Because Konoha's residential buildings were insufficient, more land was reclaimed to build apartment buildings, which were then rented out at low prices to ordinary people. Wealthy villagers could purchase these inexpensive resettlement houses. These resettlement houses were located in the outskirts of Konoha; they were not available to ordinary people in wealthier areas.

Meanwhile, the bustling streets of Konoha were being expanded, becoming increasingly interconnected. The streets were lined with countless goods, all high-quality products supplied to Konoha by the Konoha's Black Factory. These goods were of good quality, inexpensive, and diverse.

Not only have the resources increased, but the fighting strength of Konoha has also increased several times over. The number of ninjas has reached 190,000, including over 30,000 Elite Jonin, over 500 Quasi-Kage Level ninjas, over Chunin, and a large number of Konoha Genin.

According to feedback from the Fat Water Squad " and members of the Police Force, Konoha Konoha now the wealthiest village in the Shinobi World, renowned for its incredibly valuable land. Even the entire Land of Fire doesn't have such a wealthy place.

The local villagers of Konoha mostly live in small houses, and their living conditions are at least four or five times better than those of the immigrant villagers. Even the Ninja Academy's admission criteria prioritize locals, with those from other areas being considered secondarily.

When Iruka said "School's out," the students in the Elite Class immediately rushed out of the classroom and headed towards the school gate, intending to go home for dinner and also to watch the movie that evening.

Just then, an older student shouted, "Look everyone! The Ninja Academy's number one genius, Uchiha Sasuke, and the Fourth Hokage's son, Naruto Uzumaki, are about to duel in the training grounds. Everyone, wait a minute before you go!"

When this energetic student shouted those words, everyone looked excited and ran towards the back mountain of the Ninja Academy. This was a simulated training ground, a forest training ground created by Yamato using Wood Release Ninjutsu.

Tomoki and the others, who were originally planning to go home, all looked surprised.

Uchiha Youmeng also said with a surprised look, "Uncle Sasuke is going to have Uchiha Sasuke duel! Let's go cheer him on! But that Big Idiot Naruto is just too good at fighting. He's the toughest guy in Konoha. How can a little blond kid be so resilient?"

Uchiha Youyong said with an embarrassed look, "Uncle Uchiha Sasuke seems to be the toughest guy, his head is even harder than Rasengan."

Tomoki said directly to Meiyu, "Meiyu, you go back first! Remember to tell my mom I'm going to see Uncle Uchiha Sasuke."

Upon hearing Tomoki's words, Meiyu said awkwardly, "I'd like to go see too."

Future and Youmei, both looking on with anticipation, chimed in, "Tomoki, we want to go too!"
