"Alright, alright, the Third Elder just hasn't figured it out yet. Fugaku, let's do it your way." This guy Uchiha Fugaku, is completely useless. He chickens out the moment he sees Susanoo... Is he going to kill you in front of his clansmen? So what if he skips your lineage? Can't you just use your seniority, be shameless, and throw a tantrum?

Seeing the idiot who had been egging him on being cornered, Elder Uchiha Setsuna hurriedly stepped in to smooth things over.

"Hmph, can't figure it out? I think you're blinded by profit. Don't forget, I'm the clan leader!" I Setsuna why that old codger, Shana, was so quiet today. Turns out he's gotten smart and knows how to find a proxy?

"Yes, yes, you are the clan leader, there is no doubt about it. Everyone chose you to be the clan leader because they saw that you have the potential to be recognized." The strong people of my Great Elder's lineage have always accounted for the majority of the Uchiha Clan. This Dream Fulfillment Plan is the best opportunity for my Great Elder's lineage to surpass the clan leader's lineage.

Hmph~ Uchiha Fugaku, you'll regret this~

"Since everyone agrees, let's go back and collect the body parts of the ancestors from each lineage. I'll contact Orochimaru tomorrow, and then everyone will be able to reunite with their ancestors." I've finally managed to subdue these unruly creatures; what a waste of my Dojutsu Power.

"Yes, Chieftain!"

"Understood, Chieftain!"

"Yes, Chieftain!"

The next day~

"Is everyone ready? We're about to set off, remember to hold hands." Yuki, holding a large bag of takoyaki, looked at the dark mass of the Uchiha Clan members in front of her.

"Why go through all that trouble to go to the Land of Snow? Can't we just stay in our clan's territory?"

"Exactly, exactly. It's inconvenient with so many of us. We should just send Orochimaru over. Anyway, his status as a missing-nin is just talk; Lady Tsunade has no intention of hunting him down."

What are the clan chief and Yuan up to? Why do they insist on going to the Land of Snow? Is this Dream Fulfillment Plan a scam?

"Shut up, you bunch of short-sighted fools! This is Konoha! A whole bunch of the Uchiha Clan clansmen who died and came back to life have appeared here. What are the other people supposed to think? Don't all the major clans have members who died? Are you trying to make the Uchiha Clan the target of everyone's ire?" What a joke! If these old fogies are left in the clan, what authority will I, as the clan head, have left? Especially Madara. In a sense, the position of clan head of my lineage isn't as legitimate as Madara Uchiha's.

Three-Tomoe Sharingan ~ Stare!

"Fugaku, is that really the reason? Don't try to fool an old man like me, considering what you and Genji have been doing these past few years..." Elder Setsuna looked on with suspicion at Uchiha Fugaku's reason.

"Elder Setsuna, how can you look at me like that? Forget about Uchiha Gen, I, Fugaku, have worked tirelessly for the clan all these years. Think about it yourself, every year during festivals, have I not personally brought gifts to comfort the elderly and widowed in the clan? Looking back at all the Uchiha Clan Head, who else has done what I have done?"

It's true what they say, old people are shrewd, old horses are cunning, and old mice are hard to catch. How can this old codger Setsuna live so long? Those heartless bastards like the Third Danzo have already gone to meet the Setsuna Hokage, but judging from Setsuna's condition, he probably won't die anytime soon...

"Oh? You're trying to push your business along with the condolences? Hezi said she didn't agree, so you even took the gifts back? You're really something else." This guy has become more and more cunning these past few years. I really miss the timid and submissive Fugaku from before.

"Look at what you're saying. Giving a gift is a favor, not giving one is one's right. Hezi doesn't accept favors based on mere gestures, so I can only take the gifts back and give them to someone who needs them?"

It's said that Hezi and Elder Setsuna's families live so far apart, how did Setsuna even know about such a trivial matter? Are the two of them really that close, sharing everything?

"Everything ready? Let's go!"

Kaguya, chewing on Yuki, scanned her clansmen back and forth, looking just like a train conductor.

"Alright, I'll leave it to Yuki -chan~" This girl in front of me... her strength is probably no less than her father's!

"Then, Sage Robe Mode ~ Flying Raijin Technique!" Yuki's own Chakra is not enough to perform such a large-scale group teleportation, but with the help of the Little Ten-Tails, she can easily perform this large-scale teleportation ten more times.

Swish~

Land of Snow, Hidden Snow Village ~

"Hiss~ It's so cold. Didn't they say that the Land of Snow has already popularized that Geothermal Heating Device? Why is it still so cold?" This was Setsuna Setsuna's first time visiting the Land of Snow, but she had never stopped gathering intelligence about it, after all, it was the Uchiha Clan's rear base.

"After all, it's summer in Konoha, so there's bound to be some temperature difference." Fugaku, who had accompanied Mikoto and the child to Konoha many times, was very understanding about this.

"Hmph, I really don't understand what that kid Gen sees in the Land of Snow. Compared to the Land of Snow, I definitely prefer the Land of Fields and the Land of Waterfalls." Uchiha Setsuna glanced around, picking and choosing with a hint of disdain.

"I support Elder Setsuna's idea. Genji is just too short-sighted. How about we leave the Land of Fields and the Land of Waterfalls to Elder Setsuna? After all, since Elder Setsuna has said so, he must already have a plan in mind, right?" Heh, it's easy for the old man to talk when he's not in the same boat. Back then, when Genji took over the Land of Snow, the Ninja World was abuzz with discussion, and the Daimyo of the Land of Fire even had the Hokage deal with him.

This was only achieved with great difficulty, given that the Land of Snow is a remote, harsh, sparsely populated country with little to no resources. If it were a place like the Land of Fields or the Land of Waterfalls, other countries would have rushed over to seize the territory in no time, citing the righteous cause.

"Well, I was just saying. When I was younger, I could have made a name for myself, but at this age, I should probably give up. The opportunity should be left to you young people. Fugaku, as the current head of the Uchiha Clan, you need to work hard. Even that kid, Minamoto, has built such a great legacy. What makes you any less capable than him? Besides, you have the moral high ground and the support of the entire clan."

Sigh~ As fellow members of Fengjian Uchiha Clan, my own Kazama's looks are among the best in the entire clan. Even that ordinary-looking Genji managed to catch the eye of the Land of Snow princess. Shouldn't my Fengjian copy his homework?

"Hehe, Elder Setsuna thinks too highly of me, Fugaku. Divine Grace is a kind of Dōjutsu that not everyone possesses. According to the clan's historical records, this is the first time such Dōjutsu has appeared. The only one that is somewhat similar is an ancestor named Youhuo from the mid-Warring States period. However, that ancestor's Divine Dōjutsu could only achieve a limited exchange between his own Chakra and eye power. Compared to Genji's Divine Grace, it is not even in the same league."

It's such a pity that none of our ancestors' body parts were preserved. Sigh... imagine how much Dojutsu Power we lost! It's heartbreaking.
