After Uchiha Itachi left, the anger of the people did not subside immediately, and many members of the clan were still cursing.
Some people angrily cursed Uchiha Itachi for being heartless and ruthless, while others angrily denounced the high-level officials for their despicable and shameless tactics, and so on.
Seeing that everyone was still angry and Fugaku was immersed in shock, Uchiha Tomoki still stood up to comfort everyone, although it was a bit unreasonable.
He just clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention, and then spoke.
"Alright, everyone, be quiet. Uchiha Itachi's betrayal will definitely be punished accordingly. As for the Konoha high-level officials, they have always been targeting our Uchiha clan. There is nothing to be angry about. No matter how the enemy targets us, it is justified. There is nothing despicable about it."
"Everyone can think about it from another perspective. Which of the major ninja clans in Konoha, the Hyuga, the Aburame, the Ino-Shika-Chou, doesn't have spies planted by the Konoha high-ups? As for our clan being targeted the most, it just shows how powerful our clan is, which is why the Konoha high-ups are trying every possible way to suppress us."
"There's no need for Konoha to suppress small families like Kazematsuri, Kurama, and Gekko, nor is there any need to plant spies there."
Uchiha Tomoki, who was well aware of the Uchiha clan's tsundere character, did not simply persuade them, but praised them from another angle.
Sure enough, as his words fell, a hint of pride flashed across everyone's originally angry faces, because the anger caused by being suppressed not only disappeared, but also brought a hint of happiness. It is true that I am proud of being suppressed.
Looking at the faces of his clan members who seemed to have changed into tsundere ones, unlike Itachi, Tomoki felt that the Uchiha clan was a really lovely clan.
Many elders are not as easy to fool as ordinary tribesmen, but seeing Tomoki, whether it was when he exposed Itachi's identity as a spy before, or now when he can control the emotions of the tribesmen with just a few words.
The insight and ability to control his subordinates shown in this made several elders, including Uchiha Qing, have more recognition of Tomoki. At the same time, several old men such as Uchiha Yan were even more smiling.
Looking at everyone's expressions, especially his old man's face full of wrinkles from smiling, I, Sun Youshu, have the qualifications to be the clan leader. Youshu gave his old man an explanation in his heart.
Seeing that everyone's emotions had almost calmed down, Tomoki spoke again: "Patriarch Fugaku, I apologize for interrupting you earlier. I wonder what you wanted to announce?"
All eyes were focused on the clan leader, Uchiha Fugaku. Fugaku had come to his senses, but he looked a little tired because of the recent incident and the betrayal by his own son, and his figure was not as straight as before.
After calming himself down, Fugaku said, "At this clan meeting, I want to announce one thing, which is that I want to give the position of the head of the Uchiha clan to Uchiha Tomoki."
As soon as these words were spoken, a huge uproar was stirred up!
The Uchiha clan, who had just experienced shock, fell into a sea of chaos again.
Not everyone was unprepared. Most of the young clan members actually knew that Uchiha Tomoki wanted to become the clan leader tonight, and they had actively contacted many clan members.
They were ready to push Tomoki to the position of clan leader, even if it meant competing with opponents, but Fugaku's sudden decision caught them off guard.
Although I am happy that the goal can be achieved, I still have a strange feeling. I originally thought that there would be a fierce battle between dragons and tigers, and there would be some twists and turns.
That's it? I've already taken off my pants and you show me this. It perfectly matches their mood.
What's the point of such a uneventful handover?
Some ninjas who were not aware of this in advance, after the initial shock, began to think carefully.
Thinking of Uchiha Tomoki's usual style and his rumored strength, it seems that apart from the shortcoming of being too young, there is nothing inappropriate.
Some even compared Tomoki and Fugaku in their minds and found that it was not unacceptable for Tomoki to become the clan leader.
The elders were also a little surprised, and Uchiha Hiko looked at his grandson with some worry in his heart.
"This is not what you thought, Youshu. What would you do?"
At this time, Uchiha Tomoki no longer sat cross-legged in the same place, but stood up directly. The exercise since childhood made him grow very fast. At the age of 15, his height reached 177 cm, which made his figure not tall, but not short either.
"I'm sorry, Patriarch, I can't accept this!"
The clear and loud voice reached the ears of everyone present.
The whole space was once again filled with discussions and surprises.
"What's going on?!!"
"Why did Youshu refuse? It's different from what I heard!"
"What's going on? Didn't we agree to support Tomoki?"
For the tribesmen who were not aware of this in advance, this situation left them confused.
But for Uchiha Tomoki's supporters, the answer was a big "Fuck!"
We are just about to kill the enemy, why did Your Majesty surrender so early?
It was as if many mythical beasts were walking through the hearts of those who supported Youshu.
For a moment, everyone on both sides, including Fugaku's diehard fans, looked at each other, not knowing how to react.
"Youshu-kun, do you know what you just said?"
Uchiha Fugaku was just a little serious, but he looked fierce as he looked at Uchiha Tomoki who stood up and asked.
"I know what I said. I refused to accept the position of clan leader offered to me by Clan Leader Fugaku."
Youshu said again with certainty.
At this time, Uchiha Fugaku frowned deeply: "Youshu-kun, what do you want..."
"I will definitely get the position of clan leader tonight, but I won't accept the position you gave me!" Youshu interrupted what Fugaku wanted to say, straightened his chest, looked Uchiha Fugaku in the eyes without hesitation, and continued, "Rather than accepting charity, I would rather snatch it from you myself!"
After saying this, he stopped looking at Fugaku and looked at everyone present.
"As for who I am, I won't introduce myself. Today's clan meeting was initiated by me at the request of the elders." At the same time, he nodded in the direction of the elders.
"My sole purpose in initiating this clan meeting is to seize the position of clan leader from Chief Fugaku. I believe that Chief Fugaku lacks the ability and courage to serve as the clan leader, nor does he possess the corresponding wisdom. If he continues to lead us, it will cause great harm to the Uchiha clan."
"As for me, Uchiha Tomoki, although young, I believe that I am stronger than Clan Leader Fugaku and everyone present in every aspect. I am determined to win the position of Clan Leader today!"
Tomoki did not prepare any speech in advance, but simply expressed his thoughts according to what was in his mind under the current situation.
Knowing that he had no mastery of verbal skills, he did not expect that just a few words would gain people's support. His speech was only to make his purpose clear.
He knew that the real test tonight had just begun.
