Departure

Inoue shook his head and replied respectfully, "No! Lord Kangetsu, after you gave the order yesterday, I had planned to speak with the elders. But Lord Kangetsu's father has already handled the matter!"

Hearing this, Kangetsu nodded. He knew his father, Uchiha Tajima, well enough; within the Uchiha clan, his father held that kind of authority.

After thinking it over, Kangetsu nodded again and said, "All right, let's go straight to the Elder Pavilion now! A few people would be one thing, but they're members of the Four Clans. There are more than three thousand of them!"

With that, Kangetsu headed forward, with Inoue and the others following at his side.

But at that moment, Kangetsu did not know that poor Meigetsu, after seeing him leave directly, hurried over to Uchiha Eiko.

Uchiha Eiko had already finished cooking and was waiting for Kangetsu to arrive.

Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Izuna, and Kangetsu's father, Uchiha Tajima, had also arrived.

Looking miserable, Meigetsu went straight to Eiko's side and said, "Mother, Brother Kangetsu said he had something to do and wouldn't be eating breakfast. He's already left! And he ran so fast that I lost sight of him in an instant!"

Hearing this, Uchiha Eiko's gaze dimmed, and she let out a long sigh.

However, Uchiha Tajima pondered for a moment before saying, "Kangetsu has probably gone to the Elder Pavilion. I heard him say that he had subdued four clans outside. And they are clans with chakra. This needs to be reported to the Uchiha, after all. They are chakra-bearing clans, even if they are not very strong!"

After saying that, Uchiha Tajima put down his chopsticks and said, "Eiko, let's go as well. Perhaps we can look after Kangetsu in this matter."

As he spoke, he slowly rose to his feet. Eiko nodded as well and said, "Naturally. If those old men refuse my son's request, I'll tear down the Elder Pavilion myself!"

With that, anger flashed across Uchiha Eiko's face, and she rose to her feet.

Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Izuna both looked helpless, but when they thought of their younger brother Kangetsu, the image of him standing blood-soaked in a pool of blood surfaced in their minds.

At that moment, Uchiha Madara said directly, "Mother, Father, I want to go too!"

As he spoke, he stood up. Izuna and Meigetsu also rose and looked toward Uchiha Tajima.

Uchiha Tajima nodded and said, "All right. Since you want to go, then go. We can also see exactly what Kangetsu intends to do."

With that, he got up and headed out the door.

Uchiha Eiko followed after him.

Meanwhile, Kangetsu had no idea that his entire family was rushing toward the Elder Pavilion.
