After Uchiha Takashi took over the Gunbai, the Grand Elder summoned Fū Uchiha and Yukimichi Uchiha.
Then, in front of all the clan members, it was announced that Fū Uchiha would become the new First Elder, Yukimichi Uchiha would become the Second Elder.
As for him, he and the former Second Elder, along with the former Third Elder Kyō Uchiha, lived in seclusion at the main camp. Except when necessary, they would act like ordinary clansmen.
However, while the clan members had no objection to Uchiha Takashi taking over as clan leader, they immediately began to discuss these two positions.
"Is the Second Elder sending Yukimichi Uchiha? I feel Homura Uchiha is a bit better... He awakened the Three-Tomoe Sharingan at the age of ten, so Homura Uchiha's talent is definitely superior."
"What's the use of talent? Yukimichi Uchiha is only 18 years old, yet he has been fighting for a full ten years! His combat experience far surpasses that of Homura Uchiha, making him a truly deserving Second Elder!"
"Hey, you're really going to argue with me, aren't you? Let's have a go!"
"Come on, who's afraid of who! Let me tell you, anyone who doesn't show up today is a coward!"
As the argument escalated, it looked like a fight was about to break out. Seeing this, Uchiha Takashi frowned and shouted, "Silence!"
Since everyone has objections to the appointment of the Second Elder, then please invite Homura Uchiha and Yukimichi Uchiha to come up on stage for a contest!
The outcome of the contest will determine who becomes the second elder of the family!
Upon hearing this solution, the clansmen fell silent. This was the custom of the Uchiha: whoever had the bigger fist made the decisions.
Since they can't reach a conclusion by arguing, let them fight it out and whoever is stronger will take the throne.
Yukimichi Uchiha high. Although being appointed as the Second Elder was somewhat unexpected, he was also worried about whether he could handle the position.
However, he would not feel inferior because of this; the pride of the Uchiha would not make him back down in front of others! As Uchiha, one should be confident in everything!
Homura Uchiha naturally wouldn't refuse. As a pure Uchiha, he had no interest in the position of Second Elder.
However, when it comes to the level of strength, he doesn't believe he's necessarily inferior to Yukimichi Uchiha; on the contrary, his eyes are currently burning with fierce fighting spirit.
Without saying a word, Homura Uchiha jumped onto the stage and said to Yukimichi Uchiha, "Although I don't care about the position of Second Elder, I don't necessarily think I'm weaker than you."
Since everyone wants us to compete and see who comes out on top, then let's see who's the best!
Yukimichi Uchiha high. "Is that so? You're only ten years old. If I beat you later, just don't say I'm bullying a child!"
Homura Uchiha gritted his teeth and said, "Since I'm Uchiha, I admit I can't beat you. What does that have to do with age?"
"Very well! Come on!" With that, Yukimichi Uchiha drew his long sword from his waist. "Let me see what kind of skills you, Homura Uchiha, known as the rising star of the Uchiha, really have."
Homura Uchiha also assumed a fighting stance and drew his weapon. "Then I'll have to learn from you, senior, what exactly constitutes combat experience."
Uchiha Takashi stood between the two, cleared his throat twice to draw their attention, and then said, "This is mainly a friendly spar. Just make sure you get a point; remember not to kill them."
Victory is achieved by knocking the opponent down or off the fighting platform; however, if the opponent remains capable of fighting, the battle will continue.
However, we will observe the condition of both sides. If either side is in poor condition or can no longer continue fighting, they will be judged to have lost, even if they do not wish to.
Have you understood the rules?
"Understood," they both said simultaneously, then formed Seal of Confrontation.
"Battle begins!" With Uchiha Takashi's command, the two quickly assumed battle stances, each staring intently at the other.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Uchiha Takashi quickly ran off the arena and went to the side of Elder Tatsu Uchiha to avoid being accidentally injured.
"Elder, who do you think will win the duel?" Second Elder Dai Uchiha asked, leaning closer and looking at the two on the dueling platform.
The elder stroked his beard and said, " Homura Uchiha has better talent and his attacks are faster, but his combat experience is ultimately too weak, and his judgment of the situation is not as good as Yukimichi Uchiha's."
While Yukimichi Uchiha may not be as swift in attack as Homura Uchiha, his steady style might lead him to victory.
Dai Uchiha: "So, Elder, you have high Yukimichi Uchiha?"
Tatsu Uchiha: "Of course, after all, those extra eight years of fighting didn't just appear out of thin air. Yukimichi Uchiha, who spent more time on the battlefield, is ultimately stronger than the inexperienced Homura Uchiha."
"Chieftain, what do you think?"
Uchiha Takashi: "Me? I'll just sit and watch..."
On the dueling platform, the two stood facing each other for a long time, neither willing to make the first move.
Although Homura Uchiha preferred to take the initiative in attacks, he abandoned his usual reckless style when facing Yukimichi Uchiha, who had eight more years of combat experience than him.
After all, these are seniors in front of him, so it's better for him to be cautious.
Yukimichi Uchiha leans towards defense and counter-attack, preferring to capitalize on his opponent's openings after they've made their move.
This also maximizes the use of his Three-Tomoe Sharingan's dynamic vision.
Ultimately, it was Homura Uchiha who lost his composure first and launched an attack with " Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique ".
He took a deep breath, and within seconds, a huge fireball shot out of his mouth, charging menacingly towards Yukimichi Uchiha opposite him.
Yukimichi Uchiha merely narrowed his eyes and remained standing still.
His figure suddenly flashed only when the fireball flew right up to his face.
Homura Uchiha, Homura Uchiha was already staring intently at him, immediately sensed the fluctuations of Chakra around him the instant the Great Fireball engulfed him.
He swiftly held his long sword horizontally in front of him, reacting to Yukimichi Uchiha's Body Flicker Technique attack.
"Not bad... You actually knew what I was thinking right away?" Yukimichi Uchiha looked at Homura Uchiha with some surprise.
He specifically chose the moment the fireball was about to hit him before using the Body Flicker Technique, so that the Great Fireball would completely obscure Homura Uchiha's vision.
However, it seems that Homura Uchiha is extremely cautious when facing him, and has an incredibly keen sense of Chakra in the surrounding area.
"You flatter me, senior. I am merely... Fire Style: Fire Arrow!" Homura Uchiha curled the corners of his lips and was speaking when he suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a thin stream of flame.
Yukimichi Uchiha decisively pulled back, using the force of the blade to leap high into the air, dodging the close-range attack.
However, Homura Uchiha revealed a triumphant smile, "You've fallen for my trap! Fire Style: Fire Dragon Technique!"
As the dazzling Hand Seals finished, a gigantic dragon composed of flames erupted from Homura Uchiha's mouth, its gaping maw charging towards Yukimichi Uchiha in the air.
This was something Homura Uchiha had planned long ago. He knew his flame technique would be dodged, and he never intended for it to hit his opponent.
The real attack came from the fire dragon. After the opponent dodged the fire stream, it was in the air with no foothold and no way to dodge!
