Chapter 156

As Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice fell, Nara Shikahisa also said in a timely manner: "I think everyone knows the plight of the village. The savings over the years to pay pensions and purchase supplies such as ninja tools are already stretched. Now more than [-]% of the territory of the Fire Kingdom has been destroyed. After the baptism of war, daimyo is also very difficult, we must show our sincerity if we want to get help from each other."

Lu Jiu's words were a bit evasive. In fact, most of the cost was compensation for sand ninja and ransom, but his ass decided his head. It was impossible for him to say these words in front of Hokage.

But the people present were not those low-level ninjas. They basically all participated in or knew about the drafting of the compensation clauses, so they naturally knew what Lu Jiu didn't say.

But since Hiruzaru Sarutobi has announced that he is about to step down, it is meaningless to say these things.

"Of course we can understand Daimyo's difficulties, but it's not like exchanging Hokage's position, right?"

Turning to bed Xiaochun said with some dissatisfaction.

Sarutobi Hiruza did not discuss this move with her, so she was naturally worried, but this was not the main reason for her objection, the main reason was that she did not want daimyo to participate in the appointment and dismissal of Hokage candidates.

From the perspective of the village, from the initial referendum to the imperial appointment, every change in Hokage's election rules will bring political turmoil.

This time it became a daimyo to participate, the relationship between Konoha and daimyo was not equal, and it was impossible that there would be no voices of opposition in the village.

Not a good thing for a rebuilding village.

Danzang saw Zhuanzi Xiaochun speak, and also took the words: "Konoha has been building the village for almost 50 years. Even in the most difficult period, it still maintains independence. Now let the daimyo participate."

With a long voice, he swept across the faces of the crowd: "I'm afraid I will be speechless to face our ancestors."

Hearing Danzo's words, most people frowned unconsciously.

As soon as Yamanaka Hai saw this, he snorted coldly: "Everything must be done first. If you don't do this, can Lord Danzo have a way to raise materials for reconstruction?"

"What if I have?"

After Danzo's voice fell, Shikahisa and Sarutobi Hiruzane looked up at Danzo at the same time, obviously understanding who the other party wanted to find.

"Danzo, do you know what you're talking about?"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi stared at Danzo with sharp eyes.

"Of course, although Hoshino Mu is greedy, he has no intention of destroying Konoha, and has no intention of occupying Konoha's dominance. As for the others"

"Everyone, is there anything we can't talk about now?"

Danzo didn't hesitate to say Hoshino Mu's name.

He was also forced to be helpless, he didn't expect the old bastard Sarutobi Hiruzen to ask Daimyo to be his helper, if he let the other party succeed, he would be far away from the position of Hokage.

"Perhaps he didn't intend to get involved with Konoha before, but now that Konoha is struggling, everything is hard to say. The family in the mountain is against it!"

"That's right, Hoshino Mulangzi is ambitious, and he must not cooperate with him. The Qiudao clan opposes it!"

"."

There was a lot of noise in the conference room, but no one talked about the daimyo issue. Everyone tacitly shelved this matter for the time being, and everyone needed to discuss it with the family.

"Father"

A child with short black hair and pupils stood in the corridor, watching Uchiha Fugaku approaching and saluted respectfully.

Although he looked only four or five years old, he already knew etiquette and even showed amazing talent in ninjutsu.

Uchiha Fugaku nodded, and only said when the two sides were about to cross their bodies: "Have you practiced ninjutsu today?"

"I've practiced it, and today I learned the art of fireball."

Uchiha Fugaku paused, lowered his head to look at his son himself, and finally locked his eyes on the burnt corner of his mouth.

"Have you learned how to fireball?"

Uchiha Itachi lowered his head: "It's just mastered."

Hao Fireball Jutsu is a fire escape ninjutsu created by the Uchiha clan, and later it was widely spread in the ninja world. It can be said that it is a compulsory ninjutsu for the Uchiha clan fire escape ninjas.

Although this ninjutsu is only C-level, it is no less difficult to learn than the B-level ninjutsu.

The most important thing is that he is only four years old!
C-level ninjutsu is a chunin-level ninjutsu, and his son has not yet attended a ninja school.

Thinking of the ninja school, Uchiha Fugaku's eyes became darker.

"Come with me to the lake, and I'll see the results of your cultivation."

Uchiha Fugaku walked in front with his arms around his chest, and Itachi followed behind him step by step, with a bit of hope in his eyes.

"Fire Escape · Howling Fire Ball Technique!"

There was an afterimage from the seals of both hands, and finally the thumbs and index fingers overlapped, and the immature cheeks swelled, and a fireball with a diameter of about two meters spit out from his mouth, which lasted for three seconds and disappeared, bringing up bursts of steam.

The lake water reflected Uchiha Fugaku's shocked face. He looked at his son who was panting heavily with his hands on his knees, and was speechless for a while.

Originally, he thought Itachi's 'just mastered' meant spit out a small flame, but he didn't expect the degree of completion to be so high.

This level is indeed far from actual combat, but again, considering his age, these are not problems.

Even Uchiha Fugaku himself couldn't do this at his age.

"ferret"

Hearing his father's voice, Uchiha Itachi turned his head and looked at his father with a little expectation in his eyes.

"It's nothing." Uchiha Fugaku seemed to have thought of something, his eyes were slightly lowered, and he shook his head: "You are doing well, continue training."

He is very happy as a father to see his son so talented.

But as a patriarch who wants to avoid a confrontation between the family and the village, this is troublesome.

Although the family suffered heavy losses in the war, Shisui's rise gave great encouragement to the clan, and they regarded it as the basis for the Uchiha clan to compete for Konoha's right to speak.

If we let them know that Itachi has such a talent, I'm afraid their behavior will be even more unscrupulous.

Similarly, the village knows what the attitude of the Uchiha clan will be when there is another genius no less than Shisui, and there is also a big question mark.

But as a father, he couldn't do such a thing as suppressing his son's practice.

On the way home, Uchiha Fugaku looked at his son's back, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

"Patriarch"

Back to the area of ​​the Uchiha clan, the two Uchiha clansmen had been waiting for a long time. After seeing Fuyue, they asked urgently: "What did the village say?"

Uchiha Fugaku glanced at his son: "Go home first and tell your mother that I have something to do at night."

After finishing speaking, he looked up at the two of them: "Go and inform the clansmen that a meeting will be held at the shrine in an hour."

After speaking, he took the lead with a heavy face and walked towards the shrine.

Uchiha Itachi looked at his father's back and the stern faces of his two uncles, not knowing what happened.

But the precocious he didn't ask any more questions, just walked towards home silently.
-
The Nanga Shrine of the Uchiha clan is located on a not-so-high mountainside, surrounded by trees. Except for the ninjas who guard and clean up, few people come here on weekdays, but today, many Uchiha clansmen come here in twos and threes. Pass through the Myojin Gate where the Tuanfan plaque is hung, and enter this shrine that does not look magnificent.

The candles were dimly lit, and the shrine, which used to be full, now had a lot of empty seats. Everyone saw this scene and didn't speak, but silence was the most obvious attitude.

Seeing this scene, Uchiha Fugaku secretly sighed in his heart.

"Go to the Hokage Building today to discuss what happened after the war."

Uchiha Fugaku swept across everyone's faces, not knowing how they would react when they heard the next words.

"As for our Uchiha clan, the opinion of the village is that there are merits and demerits, and meritorious deeds should be rewarded, but we should also bear the main responsibility for Yunin's raid on the village."

Some clansmen below were full of dissatisfaction, and wanted to get up to defend themselves, but were quickly pulled back by the people next to them. Although the others were not so obvious, most of them were also dissatisfied.

Uchiha Fugaku had a panoramic view of all this, and said in a deep voice: "The punishment of the village is that we let us give up one-third of the land to compensate the families who suffered losses in the cloud ninja raid."

"Too deceiving!"

"This is simply a humiliation to Uchiha, absolutely unacceptable!"

"They fight if they want!"

"That's right! We have Patriarch Fuyue, Shisui, and so many warriors who have opened Sharingan. Why do they dare to yell at us?! With that disabled Sannin? Or some bullshit yellow flash?"

"."

Shisui Uchiha, who was sitting in the crowd, heard his name, his eyes drooped, and even though he felt many eyes on him, he still didn't move.

The family will definitely not agree to this condition.

Uchiha Shisui didn't even think about opening his mouth to adjust. If he opened his mouth at this time, his tribe would regard him as a traitor.

Uchiha Fugaku sat at the head, and waited for the clansmen to vent their anger, before he said: "We really can't agree to this condition. But now there are many opinions on this matter in the village, and you must be clear about it. If you want to pay nothing, It’s probably going to be hard to do.”

Uchiha Fugaku's voice fell, and everyone did not refute.

Most of the people here have participated in the war with Yunin, so they naturally know how Yunin broke through his defense line and attacked Konoha, so the confidence is actually insufficient.

After all, they are not as thick-skinned as those politicians or Hoshino Maki, who can completely take on the identity of victims.

The Uchiha clan has been pursuing the traditional ninja style for more than ten years. Most of them are still at a relatively early stage even if they are a little bit bad.

But still unconvinced on the face.

Uchiha Fugaku has been observing the expressions of the clansmen, and after knowing everyone's attitude, he said: "I will discuss the specific conditions with the elders and give a proposal that both parties can accept."

The purpose of this meeting is to let the clansmen know about the situation, and the specific decision still depends on the Uchiha senior management.

After that, Fuyue cared about several families who were living in a difficult situation during the war, and asked the families to help them, as well as the family's livelihood issues. The conference was coming to an end, and the rest were high-level meetings.

Uchiha Shisui stood up, and just as he was about to leave with the crowd, he heard the voice of the patriarch behind him: "Shisui, please stay here."
