Inoue shook his head, then said respectfully, "No, Lord Kangetsu! After your instructions yesterday, I was planning to speak to the elders, but your father had already taken care of it!"
Hearing this, Kangetsu nodded. He knew his father, Uchiha Tajima, well enough. Within the Uchiha Clan, his father certainly had the authority to handle something like this!
With that thought, Kangetsu nodded again and said, "All right, let's head straight to the Elder Pavilion! If it were only a handful of people, that would be one thing, but these are people from the Four Clans. There are over three thousand of them!"
With that, Kangetsu headed forward, with Inoue and the others walking beside him!
What Kangetsu did not know was that, after watching him leave, a forlorn Meigetsu had hurried over to Uchiha Eiko!
By then, Uchiha Eiko had finished preparing the meal and was waiting for Kangetsu to arrive!
Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Izuna, and Kangetsu's father, Uchiha Tajima, had also arrived!
The forlorn Meigetsu went straight to Eiko's side and said, "Mother, Kangetsu said he had something to do and wouldn't be eating breakfast. He's already left! And he went so fast that I couldn't find him a moment later!"
At those words, Uchiha Eiko's eyes dimmed, and she let out a long sigh!
Uchiha Tajima, however, considered it for a moment before saying, "Kangetsu has probably gone to the Elder Pavilion! He told me he'd brought four clans under his control while he was away! And they're clans with chakra. That's something he needs to report to the Uchiha, after all, even if they aren't particularly strong!"
Uchiha Tajima set down his chopsticks and said, "Eiko, let's go there too! Perhaps we can help Kangetsu with this!"
With that, he slowly rose to his feet! Eiko nodded and said, "Of course! If those old men refuse my son's request, I'll tear down the Elder Pavilion myself!"
A flicker of anger crossed Uchiha Eiko's face as she stood up!
Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Izuna looked helpless, but the thought of their younger brother Kangetsu brought back the image of him covered in blood, standing in a pool of it!
At that moment, Uchiha Madara said, "Mother, Father, I want to go too!"
He stood up as he spoke, and Izuna and Meigetsu likewise rose to their feet, looking at Uchiha Tajima!
Uchiha Tajima nodded and said, "All right. Since you want to go, come along! This will also be a chance to see just what Kangetsu intends to do!"
With that, he got up and headed out the door!
Uchiha Eiko followed him!
Meanwhile, Kangetsu had no idea that his entire family was hurrying toward the Elder Pavilion!
