"Fugaku, you're late!" Uchiha Setsuna rapped his fingers on the table.
Already elderly, he was a representative of the hawk faction, advocating for seizing the Hokage position from the Senju lineage.
Whether through political maneuvering or force, the Uchiha must attain a position befitting their glory.
Therefore, he had long been dissatisfied with Fugaku.
A wavering and weak individual, unfit to lead their clan!
"Alright, since he's here, let the clan head announce today's agenda," Uchiha Yashiro, a Jonin, intervened to mediate.
The Uchiha Clan Meeting.
Traditionally, Fugaku would propose a topic related to the future development of the Uchiha, followed by discussions and voting among all participating Uchiha ninjas.
Naturally, Fugaku, as the clan head, possessed the right to veto.
Due to the tense political climate, recent clan meetings had been forced to revolve around sensitive topics related to "seizing power."
And the votes from the hawk faction gradually gained the upper hand, forcing Fugaku to exercise his veto power multiple times.
However... the veto power, without absolute strength as a foundation, loses its effectiveness when overused.
Ninjas had their limits of tolerance.
Fugaku remained silent, writing today's agenda on the blackboard: [March of Hardship, Education of Gratitude]
The Uchiha in attendance: "?"
Not just the hawks, but even the doves among the Uchiha couldn't help but voice their confusion.
The Uchiha participating in the clan meeting were all high-ranking and well-educated ninjas.
They weren't illiterate; they recognized every character Fugaku wrote. However, combined, the meaning remained elusive.
"March of Hardship, Education of Gratitude, The Advisor's Kindness Must Not Be Forgotten!"
"Looking back at the history of our Uchiha clan, it seems we have always been marching through hardship."
"But now, change has arrived, a turning point unseen in fifty years!"
"This is thanks to the kindness of Advisor Gojo..."
Ah, now they understood.
The expressions of the clan members present cleared. They hadn't understood the beginning or the middle, but they finally grasped the end.
Gojo Kaigetsu, the clan head's close friend, the Hokage's advisor, a figure who had gained considerable prominence in Konoha in recent years.
But he was a Chunin!
The Uchiha clan, who always revered strength, didn't care about such things. Gojo Kaigetsu was just a Chunin, no matter what, still just a Chunin. Could he help them achieve the glory the Uchiha deserved?
The dismissive looks on the faces of the clan members were expected.
Fugaku remained unfazed, slowly placing the "Three Years in the Ninja Academy" brought by Mikoto on the table.
"What's this?"
"The first story, read it yourselves."
Within the Uchiha, Fugaku was the leader, and Setsuna was second in command. He, naturally, furrowed his brow and was the first to peruse "Three Years in the Ninja Academy."
