Chapter 16: Tomita Uchiha: I Can Leave Voluntarily, But I Can't Be Forced Out.
Uchiha Nan stood there, his smile growing even wider, enjoying the cheers of the crowd.
"Tekka, set the clan meeting for tomorrow afternoon at the old place, Nanga Shrine."
"Yes!"
Uchiha Tekka nodded in agreement. Then Uchiha Nan waved his hand and dismissed everyone.
In just one morning, Uchiha Nan's actions caused a huge uproar in the Uchiha clan. The shock even overshadowed the news of Tobirama's death for a time.
Uchiha Nan wanted to overthrow Clan Leader Tomita Uchiha and replace him.
One big piece of gossip after another. The Uchiha hadn't had such a good time eating melons in a long time.
It was so satisfying!
At this moment, in Tomita Uchiha's house, the spacious and bright living room was now a bit cramped. A dozen Uchiha were looking intently at Tomita Uchiha, who was sitting upright.
Tomita Uchiha's wife, Mikoto Uchiha, was carrying a tea tray, busy pouring water for the Uchiha present. The snacks prepared for usual guests were not enough, which made Mikoto Uchiha a little headache.
So many people came at once, and there was no preparation at all.
However, the Uchiha sitting there didn't have the mood to drink tea and enjoy snacks. As Tomita Uchiha's supporters, they were at a loss for what to do about what had happened in Konoha in the past two days.
First, Tobirama Senju was killed in an ambush during negotiations. They hadn't fully digested this shocking news.
Then, the genius of the clan, Uchiha Nan, broke people's impression and directly launched an attack on the Uchiha clan leader. It was said that he was the one who spread the news of Tobirama's death.
They were very familiar with Uchiha Nan. If it weren't for the Uchiha's exclusive Sharingan, it would be no problem to say that he was from the Senju clan.
Tomita Uchiha held a pipe in his hand, puffing on it, trying to relieve his inner anxiety.
Not to mention his subordinates being confused, he was also confused. In just two days, the situation had changed as quickly as if decades had passed.
It was so fast that Tomita Uchiha felt that he was old and couldn't keep up with the times.
Two days ago, Tomita Uchiha was still planning to ask Tobirama for more compensation after Tobirama Senju signed the peace agreement.
To fight this war, all the ninjas trained by the clan were sent to the battlefield.
The value of the shurikens, kunai, and other weapons provided by the clan's weapon industry to Konoha was even more astronomical.
The number of soldier pills was countless!
That was all money!
Ninjas risked their lives to make a living, wasn't it all for money?
All kinds of compensation, Tobirama had been dragging his feet. All of this would inevitably involve a war of words.
Then, everything was gone.
Tobirama was dead!
He died suddenly, without any preparation.
The captain of the police force he promoted, Uchiha Nan, went crazy and changed his usual style, trying to overthrow him and become the head of the Uchiha clan.
Soon, the living room of Tomita Uchiha's house was filled with smoke. Half of the Uchiha present were old smokers. They had planned to hold back at the clan leader's house and smoke outside.
Now that the clan leader had taken the lead, they would smoke together.
One Uchiha exhaled a smoke ring and saw that Tomita Uchiha was still smoking by himself. He couldn't hold back any longer and wanted to say something.
"Clan leader, what should we do about the clan meeting tomorrow afternoon?"
As soon as one person spoke, the others immediately followed suit.
"Yes, clan leader, Uchiha Nan must have been planning this for a long time. He was the first to get the news of Lord Tobirama's death."
Tomita Uchiha recalled Uchiha Nan's past style, which was completely different from now.
He was an experienced man. After being the clan leader for more than ten years, he was very good at grasping people's hearts. He really didn't see through Uchiha Nan before.
Disguise!
Someone could really disguise themselves for so long.
He was indeed a formidable young man.
It wasn't until Tobirama's death that he revealed his true colors. Uchiha Nan had long wanted to be Hokage!
Tomita Uchiha admired Uchiha Nan. He was indeed a genius of the Uchiha, with top-notch character and strength.
Now was indeed the time when the Uchiha were closest to the Hokage position. But Tomita Uchiha couldn't figure it out.
What did Uchiha Nan rely on?
Putting his hand on his heart and asking himself, Uchiha Nan was very strong. He had easily defeated Uchiha Kagami this morning. There were probably very few people in the Uchiha clan who were stronger than him.
Even if he fought Uchiha Nan, he didn't have the confidence to win. Perhaps Uchiha Nan was already the number one person in the Uchiha in terms of combat power.
But did being a clan leader rely solely on combat power?
Did he really think he had been the clan leader for so many years for nothing? Tomita Uchiha quickly scanned the Uchiha in the room.
Almost all of them had activated the three-tomoe Sharingan. They were all jonin of the Uchiha, forming an elite team. With him leading, they could even kill Tobirama Senju, but the price they would pay was unacceptable to the Uchiha.
What was the use of being able to fight?
You had to have power and background to get ahead!
Did he really think he was a pushover after Tobirama died? Without activating the Mangekyo Sharingan, there would be no qualitative difference between the Uchiha.
"Alright, stop complaining."
"Uchiha Nan is a genius of the clan. It's inevitable that he's arrogant after coming back from the battlefield. We're all one family. I was elected as the clan leader after Lord Madara left Konoha."
"Since Uchiha Nan thinks he's more suitable to be the clan leader and took the initiative to ask for a clan meeting, let's discuss it at the clan meeting and let the Uchiha clansmen see who is more suitable to be the clan leader."
Tomita Uchiha interrupted the discussion of the Uchiha, speaking calmly, but the coldness in his tone was felt by all the Uchiha present.
Uchiha Nan was going to be in big trouble this time!
"Clan leader, you know me. I will definitely support you!"
"Me too, me too!"
"That little brat Uchiha Nan is too arrogant. He doesn't know the sacrifices the clan leader has made for the clan over the years."
"We must make Uchiha Nan pay the price!"
"..."
For a time, the Uchiha present collectively expressed their loyalty to Tomita Uchiha.
"Alright, no matter what, Uchiha Nan is a genius of the clan and a hero of Konoha. He's just young and frivolous. When you people are as old as Uchiha Nan and as strong as him, you might be even more arrogant than him."
Tomita Uchiha interrupted them and decided on his attitude towards Uchiha Nan. He was still tolerant towards Uchiha Nan.
Geniuses were tolerated everywhere.
When he was older and Tomita was older, if Tomita couldn't take on the responsibility of the Uchiha, Uchiha Nan would be a good choice.
But not now. He could voluntarily abdicate the position of clan leader, but he wouldn't tolerate anyone forcing him out.
