Chapter 61: The Clan Meeting (2)

The meeting was conducted.

When Makoto once again rejected Masamoto's offer to the Uchiha to be the head of the vault, the white-haired Masamoto's palms were already faintly sweating.

The brightly lit hall, the round walls are covered with quaint and far-reaching murals, the vermilion wooden pillars support the entire tall building, the presiding platform is in the center of the conference room, surrounded by hundreds of fan-shaped seats, at this time the seats are full, and the eyes of many shinobi are concentrated, as if there is substance, so that the long-standing Masamoto is unconsciously a little nervous.

"Ahem," after an unconscious pause, Masamoto's gaze swept over the few elders sitting at the front, and pressed his thoughts in their slight nods, and then said: "Then the next item, the head of the defense room, Uchiha Dong, resigned due to his advanced age, and recommended Shisui to take his place. ”

Although the family garrison is itself responsible for the security and defense of the entire Konoha, just as Konoha also has the special unit of assassination tactics, the Uchiha clan is also outside the garrison and has a special office responsible for the defense of the family's security. The position of the head of the defense room has always been in the hands of the mirror system, and Uchiha Dong is the elder of the mirror system, that is, the eldest son of the three elders.

The transfer of power within the mirror system, the other elders had no opinion, so they naturally unanimously passed it, and the water stop stood up and saluted, which was regarded as accepting the appointment of the family.

"Next, the captain of the family garrison," Masamoto calmly read the document in his hand, and the words he said caused an uproar among the Uchiha clansmen present: "Makoto Uchiha will take over." ”

"How could it be ......?"

"Where's Sago-sama?"

"But if it's Makoto-sama......"

The shinobi were surprised to talk about it, but most of them were suspicious of the sudden resignation of Uchiha Sago, and there were very few people who questioned Makoto's qualifications.

Sago sat in his seat like a sculpture with a blank face, oblivious to the gaze around him.

Knuckles tapped lightly on the table, and Masamoto quieted the clansmen, his eyes turned to Makoto, and asked with a smile, "Makoto, are you willing to share the family's worries?" ”

Cheng slowly stood up and bowed: "Thank you to the elders for their kindness to me......"

Masamoto's smile deepened a little, and he was about to speak, when he was interrupted by Makoto's next speech.

"However, this position, please forgive me for not being able to hold it."

Uchiha Sago's gaze turned to look at him coldly, and Masamoto's expression was also stiff, but he immediately changed to a smile and said: "Makoto, in this position, there is no one more suitable than you in the family, as one of the strongest people in the family, you should not refuse." ”

Makoto glanced at it, his eyes were on the side of Zuo Go, his expression was flat, he just looked at Sago and said: "It is incumbent on Cheng to sacrifice his life to fight for the family, but the position of the captain of the garrison is not to see who is stronger, Lord Sago has been the captain of the family garrison for many years, and he is more experienced than me." ”

Sago's face twitched, and he looked away slightly from Makoto Scarlet Eyes.

"And ......" Makoto turned his eyes and looked at Masamoto on the stage: "I can't decide such a big matter alone." ”

Changben frowned slightly: "Honestly, you are joking, you are now the head of a sect, except for yourself, how can there be a situation where you can't be the master?" Elders trust you, don't think too much about it. ”

Cheng's expression was slightly heavy, and he bowed to the empty chair in the front row, and said: "Although I am independent from the Great Elder Department and have my own lineage, I have not gone to the family sacrifice hall, so I can only be regarded as a branch of the original lineage, and now that the Great Elder has passed away, thinking of his old man's various training for me, I am grateful for the old kindness, but also grief, in this case, how can I bear to only care for myself?" I have already decided that although the Great Elder is dead, I will always be a member of the Great Elder's lineage. ”

A mouthful of blood spit out in Masamoto's heart, choked speechless by Makoto's shamelessness, and the faces of the elders in the row below were also unspeakably ugly.

And the ninjas present all nodded secretly, quietly applauding for the sincere words that although this table was not high, it was enough to see the earnestness.

Cat Ninja Village, Vault ...... I don't want this, I don't want that, I don't even refuse the position of captain of the garrison that the family reluctantly threw out, and insist on staying in the lineage of the dead Great Elder, except that I am only dedicated to the family and do not seek fame and fortune, what explanation can I have?

It is worthy of the family in recent years, no, it is already the most outstanding son of the Uchiha clan that they have seen in their lifetime.

"Cheng ......" had no choice, and was urged by the eyes of the other elders, the second elder spoke slowly, and his tone was gentle and kind: "Your mind, I think the great elder knows about it, and he will also feel very relieved." ”

Speaking of this, the Second Elder couldn't help but pause for a moment and breathe a sigh of relief before continuing: "However, the Great Elder is only dedicated to the family, if you really feel grateful for his kindness in your heart, you should do your best to do things for the family." ”

"Forgive me, Elders," Cheng bowed his head and raised his voice, "Cheng was, is, and will be a member of the Great Elder's lineage, and without the permission of the head of the lineage, Shu Cheng cannot transgress his duties and accept any appointments." ”

With the permission of the head of the lineage, Makoto refuses to admit his independence, and the Great Elder is dead, can the Uchiha still pull out the soul of the old lion and personally let Makoto accept the position of captain of the garrison, which no one else can ask for?

The chair that belonged to the Great Elder was empty, as if mocking something.

"You're enough!" Standing up suddenly, Sago slapped the table in front of him with a palm, and his tone was cold and terrifying: "Makoto Uchiha, do you really think that the family can't help you?" ”

Qiang Qiang Qiang Qiang.

Behind Makoto, the cultivators and others pulled out their weapons, and although the ninjas behind Sago and the second elder didn't know what to do, they also made a gesture of attack one after another.

"Stop!"

"What are you doing!"

"Unorthodox!"

Several elders, including the second elder, shouted angrily, Cheng bowed slightly, raised his hand to signal, and first asked his subordinates behind him to put away their weapons.

The third elder said angrily: "In the big fight at the clan meeting, you people, do you still take our old bones in your eyes?!" ”

The head of the law enforcement room, Uchiha Nobumori, whose face was as stiff as pig iron, said coldly: "Everyone who plans to do it today will come to the law enforcement room to receive fifty lashes after the meeting, and within three days, it will not wait." ”

Even if it is a shinobi, if someone who is also a ninja is whipped, fifty strokes is a rather heavy punishment.

Sago sat back helplessly, but his eyes kept staring at Makoto.

"Well, let's hear what the first department has to say." The four elders spoke calmly and handed over the topic to the Great Elders, who had been silent.

Under everyone's gaze, the girl's cold and pleasant voice sounded.

"I agree with Makoto."
