Uchiha Tomoki's remarks directly caused many members of the clan to spontaneously dislike him, which is a common trait of the Uchiha clan.
I am an Uchiha, I am proud and arrogant, but if you are more proud and arrogant than me, then I will be displeased with you.
Youshu ignored these disgusted looks. He didn't want to take over the position of clan leader quietly, so he was ready to take the initiative to stir up trouble. He knew very well what kind of people in this clan were like.
If you are more arrogant and pretentious than me, I will hate you. But if you have the capital to be arrogant and leave me speechless, I will not only not hate you, I will also respect you.
This is the Uchiha clan, a contradictory clan, and this is why the Konoha high-level officials are so targeting the Uchiha clan.
The Uchiha clan had been arrogant for thousands of years, until they met a man named Senju Hashirama, who beat the Uchiha clan into submission.
He willingly made peace with the Senju clan and jointly established the Konoha Ninja Village.
After Hashirama Senju, even Tobirama Senju was not very convinced by the Uchiha clan, but since they were very skilled, it was not a big deal.
And what is the current Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen? He is just a ninja from a small family like Sarutobi who followed the Senju clan during the Warring States Period. His own strength is not that strong.
But he is the Hokage, and he has been using all kinds of insidious and despicable means on the Uchiha clan for decades. It would be a miracle if the Uchiha clan could accept him.
However, the Uchiha clan, whose members are all combat geniuses, are not only not very knowledgeable about such superficial things as political struggles, but they are completely clueless.
Seeing that the clan was getting worse and worse, not to mention being the number one ninja clan, and even looking miserable compared to the unknown small clans like Mitomon and Utanabe, it was not difficult to understand why most of the clan members were thinking about a coup.
"Youshu-kun, there's no need to go through so much trouble. I'm happy to hand over the position of clan leader to you. Wouldn't it be nice to become the clan leader smoothly?"
Uchiha Fugaku is still trying.
It was unclear whether Uchiha Fugaku wanted to use him as a shield to attract fire, or really believed that he could lead the clan well. Tomoki looked at Fugaku and shook his head.
"I've said before, I'd rather rob than receive charity."
As he said this, he looked provocatively at the guy behind Fugaku who had been wanting to kill him, "Kento, how about a duel?"
How could Uchiha Kento, who was already furious, tolerate such provocation? As soon as he came here, he was unhappy with Tomoki sitting next to the clan leader's seat. After this series of events, he was almost losing his mind. Without asking Fugaku's opinion, he rushed directly towards Tomoki.
"Uchiha Youshu, don't be so arrogant. Your title of the best in the family is just a boast from the younger generation. Do you really think you are that great? Now I will teach you a lesson!"
The fight started!
Although such scenes are not uncommon in clan gatherings, today's situation is completely different. Many people's attention turned to the two people fighting.
No one stopped them, and no one helped. They just waited for the two to decide the winner.
"We are ninja, Uchiha."
Uchiha Youshu, who was still able to speak during the fight with Kento, continued, "In the world of ninja, in the Uchiha's thousand-year-old heritage, seniority has never been emphasized."
"That's just the strong protecting the weak out of pity. If you want me to use you as my senior, it's very simple. Defeat me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Tomoki spurted out high-speed flames from both hands. Not to mention the fight in front of him, everyone in the entire space, even behind Tomoki, could feel waves of heat coming towards them.
The entire space is filled with air distortion caused by high temperature, as if space is distorted.
"It has appeared, Suzaku's legendary and unrivaled fire escape technique!"
"What a high temperature! Even Jiraiya-sama's fire jutsu with special fuel can't reach this high a temperature!"
"Is this the strength of Tomoki, known as the 'Suzaku'?"
Cries of surprise came from the crowd. It was not because they were weak, but because all those present were Jonin, and the Uchiha clan was best at fire escape, so many people who saw this battle scene for the first time exclaimed in surprise.
They only realized today that Fire Style could be so powerful.
Tomoki didn't want to kill anyone, so the speed of the flame flow was not fast, and Kento, a Jonin, was enough to figure out a way to deal with it.
He also used Fire Style: Great Fireball to try to block it, but the Great Fireball disappeared in the instant it encountered the flame flow, as if it had never existed.
Kento had no choice but to not dodge, but took out a huge shuriken and tried to block it head-on. Soon the shuriken melted, and Kento's hands were almost carbonized.
However, when the flames reached Kento, they suddenly stopped releasing high temperatures. Instead, the flames, originally red, turned into blazing white. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the temperature had become even more terrifying.
The stream of blazing white flames came to Kento's forehead, then retreated like flowing water, and disappeared back into Tomoki's hands as if time was flowing back.
This superb control technique made everyone present wonder whether this was really something that Fire Style could do, and whether the Fire Style they learned could really be considered Fire Style.
Of course, it's not something that Fire Style can do. This is my cheat, and it's the weaker one. It's the fire control ability of 'Pyro' in X-Men. It wasn't originally that strong. This is the fire control ability that Tomoki can achieve by starting from the template and combining chakra.
Soon a medical ninja treated Kento, but there was no way to save his hand. He foolishly insisted on taking the blow head-on. No one stood up for him at this time, and everyone accepted the consequence.
Uchiha Youshu, who had shown off his skills, did not intend to stop, but said again, "Those who want to challenge me can continue. There is no need for one-on-one, you can all come together."
Seeing that no one came forward, he knew that his fire escape technique was too shocking and no one dared to come forward.
So he said again, "My Fire Style is too strong, so I won't bully you. From now on, my Fire Style will only be used for defense. As long as you don't actively touch it, there won't be any fighting."
As he spoke, he took off his black coat, revealing the combat uniform underneath, and at the same time made a few fake seals with his hands.
Suddenly, his entire body was covered in red-gold flames, and at the same time, huge flaming wings grew out from his back. He flew to the center of the gathering place and hovered in the air 5 meters above the ground.
Looking at the tribesmen below, he arrogantly hooked his finger and said, "Come on, challenge me!"
