The early spring is still cold, the flat yard is empty, although there are some rockery pools scattered in a scattered manner, but there is no trace of life, even the fallen dead leaves and weeds rhizomes have been removed, houses, corridors, small pavilions, delicate man-made objects in the dim skylight, showing an inorganic gray-white.

The only color, perhaps, is the quaint flame fan emblem on the walls, screens, or corridor pillars, indicating that this place belongs to the Uchiha family.

Occupying a considerable number of rooms on her own, and as the only granddaughter qualified to live in the Great Elder's Mansion, the world is favored by the Great Elder, and it is well known throughout the clan.

Coming out of the world room, the cold air invaded the nasal throat, and the back that had long been weak felt the change in temperature very sensitively.

"Great Elder."

Quickly a servant put on an overcoat for him. The Great Elder nodded, his gaze a little blank.

The Great Elder was very quiet and disgusted with noise, and although he had waited for a long time in the cold wind, several of his attendants and servants still stood silently like stakes, carefully keeping quiet and silent.

"Where's Tomoo?"

The old man asked suddenly.

"Tomo-sama has already gone back."

It was only a statement of the facts, and he did not dare to carry any other subjective judgment and will, and the retinue with the highest status immediately fell silent after answering.

Ah, by the way, Tomoo asked for leave from himself, and the Great Elder vaguely remembered it, but when did he invite him?

For decades, there are too many wise men and assistants, and too many people have asked for leave from him, and for a moment, the face of Zhifu in his memory suddenly coincided with countless people.

Is it really a leave of absence from myself this time? He immediately became suspicious again, or last time? When people are old, when they are inattentive, that vague memory can easily overlap with other impressions that they have experienced in the subconscious, and people often have a hallucination of immediacy.

The old man will become suspicious because of this, but the Great Elder did not let himself fall into this mood, since Tomoo is not there, then he doesn't want to talk to him about things, so what do he want to do?

"Great Elder."

A servant came silently and bowed respectfully.

"Masamoto-sama of the Zonglifang asks to see you."

Although the Zonglifang is only the Shimizu Yamen who handles and records the births, deaths, and personnel changes of the clan, and does not have much real power, the current head of the Zonglifang, Uchiha Masamoto, is also an elder with extremely high age and seniority, and in the Uchiha clan, which has a very strong family concept, this servant cannot be neglected.

Moreover, the relationship between Masamoto and the Great Elder is very good, and it is not a transgression to report directly.

"Masamoto? Let's go. ”

Interrupted to think, the Great Elder's gaze immediately condensed, regaining his lion-like majesty, he spoke lightly, his voice was low, but there was a sense of oppression like thunder in the sky.

The servant did not dare to say more, but immediately bowed down to lead the way, and several attendants and servants followed him silently.

The supreme power of the Uchiha family rests in the hands of the Council of Elders, but if everything needs to be decided by the Council, it is impossible to maintain such a large family with such an extremely low efficiency. As a result, a system of [council rooms] was formed, in which specialized personnel were formed to deal with specific matters, and the direct head of each room was accountable to the Council of Elders.

The Zonglifang nominally controls the inheritance of the family lineage and the power of sacrifice, but most of them are the responsibility of recording and have no actual power to intervene. In the eyes of many, it was nothing more than a way to highlight the Uchiha's glory as an ancient family by revising the family tree and hosting festivals.

As a result, this very low-key and transparent council room in each room has been controlled by members of the Great Elder Department for decades.

"Your Excellency."

Masamoto Uchiha's waist is straight, his gray hair is a little rough, his face is ruddy, and the corners of his eyes are wrinkled, but he is in good spirits.

"Masamoto, what's the matter?"

The Great Elder waved his hand to stop him from continuing to salute, and the Uchiha Masamoto, though respectful, was clearly not as sincere and fearful as the servant.

"My lord, it's the matter of the clansman mentioned last time, and there is a result."

"Oh?"

The Great Elder's face immediately showed interest, and he took the information handed over by Masamoto Uchiha and looked at it carefully.

"Is this child's name Obito?"

"Yes."

The Great Elder continued to look at it, and finally, his face was moved, revealing a look of surprise.

"Is that the ability?"

Masamoto looked proud:

"Based on his parents' bloodline, as well as his own chakra nature and blood nature, this calculation is at least half more accurate, and even if our prediction is wrong, his future ability must be related to 'space'."

The Great Elder looked at it quietly, and after a long time, he put down the stack of materials.

Seeing that the Great Elder was silent, Masamoto couldn't help but say:

"My lord, although this ability is definitely not as good as the role of the anti-heaven ability of stopping water in control, but from another point of view, it is actually not inferior to stopping water."

He was of the same generation as the Great Elder, and was even more loyal to the Great Elder, and when he got along with him, Masamoto would not dare to say what he thought out of fear, he lowered his voice, and continued:

"Even, to a certain extent, this ability can effectively avoid the kind of control that stops the water, if we have to ...... in the future He's going to be a trump card for us. ”

"Don't talk nonsense about this kind of thing."

The Great Elder frowned, of course he knew what Changmoto's omitted words were, this subordinate of his own, following him all the way, it was no problem to be loyal, but the other abilities were not outstanding.

Because of this, Masamoto was assigned to be in charge of the work of this sect rite room that needed loyalty the most.

"Listening to your tone, it seems that you have a lot of confidence in this child?"

Speaking of this, Masamoto's tone was even a little excited, he couldn't help but straighten his waist, and his voice raised a little:

"His qualifications are the only ones we have seen in so many years! Although he hasn't opened his eyes yet, compared to Makoto Uchiha, Obito's ability and qualifications are undoubtedly better! ”

Not affected by Masamoto's tone, the Great Elder smiled, qualifications or something, he has seen too much over the years, excellent bloodline, plus a little luck, there is no shortage of people in Uchiha who have the same excellent "eye ability" and qualifications.

However, qualification and "ability" do not represent talent, just like Masamoto said, ignoring other factors, the excellence of Uchiha Makoto's talent is also the only thing that Uchiha Great Elder has seen for so many years.

Maybe there was nothing wrong with "that person", the Great Elder thought faintly.
