At that moment, shock filled the five elders' eyes! The sight of the Sharingan shook them to their core, and when his killing intent surged out, a trace of fear crept over all five!
In their youth, that much killing intent would have meant nothing to them! But now, in their twilight years, their desire to cling to life had decidedly gained the upper hand!
And so, at that moment, they were afraid! Kangetsu, however, stared at the five of them and barked coldly, "What I intend to do is none of your concern. I came today to get written authorization from you. Set aside part of the Uchiha Clan Compound for me. I intend to move the Four Clans under my command into the Uchiha Clan Compound!"
By the time he finished, his voice was bone-chilling!
The five elders were stunned. Their hands trembled as they suppressed their fear and shouted, "You-you are defying every principle of proper conduct! We will never agree to this!"
With that, they flung their hands into the air, turned around, and tried to leave!
But Kangetsu's killing intent seemed to condense into a single thread as he snorted coldly. "This isn't a matter of whether you agree! The Uchiha Clan respects its elders, which is why it entrusted authority over the clan to you five old fools! But you rotten old men are incapable of leading the Uchiha to greater strength. You're merely clinging to life!
"Like pathetic stray dogs! Don't imagine you're anything special. In this world, strength reigns supreme, yet you old fools dare stand in my way without knowing what's good for you!
"I came today merely to go through the motions, not to obey your orders! Remember, the entire Uchiha Clan will ultimately be under my control. So you decrepit old fossils had better not throw your age around in front of me. You haven't earned that right!"
As he finished, Kangetsu's right hand had already settled unnoticed on the Black Blade. The five elders were beside themselves with rage. The elder in the middle charged straight at Kangetsu, roaring, "Ignorant brat! You deserve punishment! I'll discipline you on your parents' behalf!"
As he spoke and lunged forward, he had already drawn a kunai!
Kangetsu gave a scornful smile. Killing demanded an unwavering advance, but this old man cherished his life. Even his grip on the kunai unconsciously shifted downward!
After all, to grip a kunai firmly, one had to hold it right up against the blade! Yet this elder held the lower end of its handle, clearly intending to let go immediately if he could not withstand the attack!
Kangetsu drew the Black Blade!
Then his eyes flashed, and he charged straight at the elder, the Black Blade in his hand streaking like a meteor! But that was not all-his left hand had already hurled a kunai!
Seeing the incoming kunai, the elder could have used his own to knock Kangetsu's projectile aside!
But the elder, desperate to preserve his life, dodged instead. The sight only deepened Kangetsu's contempt!
Amid that contempt, he accelerated again!
The Black Blade became a streak of light. Kangetsu was determined to kill, and equally prepared to perish together with his opponent!
