Chapter 62:-for-tat
"Fuyue's side seems to have known about this, but he didn't say anything." The elder sitting in front of Zhishui said.
"I've visited so many people, and it's normal for some of them to tell Fuyue about things, and this matter is originally a conspiracy, as long as I can defeat him, everything will not be a problem."
"It's also ......" After a pause, the elder asked again, "Zhishui, are you really ready?" ”
"Ready!" Zhishui replied firmly.
The elder was silent for a while, and when people get old, they always think a lot, and Zhishui didn't bother him.
It's just that after a long time, the elder sighed and said, "I hope that the relationship between the Uchiha and the village can go in a good direction under your leadership, otherwise it will ......"
"Don't worry, I know what to do." Zhishui's voice is firm, and his eyes are firm.
Then the two talked about what happened after becoming the patriarch, and then the elder was ready to send off the guests.
"It's not too early, go back and rest well, after all, there will be a big battle tomorrow."
"yes, a big war." Zhishui sighed with emotion, and then stood up, "Then I'll go back first." ”
"Well, I won't send you."
Zhishui left and returned to his house in the night, although his mood was not as good as his name, but it was indeed a very peaceful night.
The next day, in the basement of the Uchiha Shrine, the Uchiha clan meeting was held as usual.
"Recently, those villagers have gone too far, and we have maintained law and order normally, but not only do they not help us, but they also scold us behind our backs, which is really unfortunate."
"It's the same on the Hokage-sama's side, except for the Security Department, there are almost no Uchiha figures in other important departments of Konoha us, and it is clear that they don't trust us."
As usual, there are complaints and complaints, but today there are significantly fewer voices than before, and most people seem to be silently waiting for something to happen.
"Senior Liangtai, why didn't you speak, didn't you also receive unfair treatment before?"
The Uchiha ninja, who was called Ryota, glanced at the junior next to him, and then glanced at Shisui not far away.
"There's something big going on today."
"What's the matter?" The ill-informed junior asked in a whisper.
Before Uchiha Ryota could speak, the Uchiha Shisui, who he had been paying attention to, had already stood up.
The entire basement fell completely silent, and everyone's attention was on Zhishui.
"Patriarch, do you have any practical plans for everyone's problems?" Shisui asked Fugaku, who was standing at the front.
He spoke so calmly that if you only listened to the tone, it seemed that you could not tell what he was going to do next.
"......" Fugaku was silent for a while, then replied, "I will go and negotiate with the three generations to get more benefits for our Uchiha." ”
"Patriarch, you've consulted many times before, but things don't seem to be getting better."
"The Nine-Tails incident back then caused the Konoha higher-ups to not seem to trust us Uchiha very much, and it was not so easy to get them to compromise."
Zhishui didn't wait for Fu Yue to say too much, and directly began to see the poor dagger.
"But isn't the role of the patriarch to do things that are not easy to do well, so that the family can develop better? Patriarch, since you have not fulfilled your duties as a patriarch, I beg you to step down and let me be the patriarch. ”
Although many people had been prepared for this matter for a long time, when Zhishui really said it on such an occasion, everyone still discussed it in a mess.
Uchiha Fugaku, who was standing at the front, had a complicated expression, he looked at Shisui and said:
"Zhishui, when I heard about this before, I thought it was someone who wanted to split the relationship between us, but I didn't expect it to be true."
"Patriarch, in order to make the Uchiha better, I have a reason to become the patriarch, I hope you can understand."
Zhishui had also considered telling Fu Yue his idea before, and then asking Fu Yue to help him realize his idea together, but in the end he still gave up, after all, it was such an important matter, and it was more secure to become the patriarch himself and completely control the development of things.
"In order to make the Uchiha better, so I need to step down? So, am I hindering the development of the Uchiha? Being impeached in public, Fuyue was still a little angry.
"No, it's just that if I become the patriarch, I have the confidence to make the family better."
Without waiting for Fu Yue to say anything, Zhishui continued:
"Patriarch, don't say anything, just start voting."
“…… Good! ”
Fugaku looked at the clansmen in front of him: "Let's start voting, support me to step down and let Uchiha Shisui be the patriarch." ”
One by one, his hands were raised, and when no one moved again, Fu Yue counted them, and half of them supported Zhishui as the patriarch.
[Did I fail so much as a patriarch? Half of them. Fugaku thought with some suspicion.
And Zhishui was also a little surprised, he only attracted forty percent of the people, but now fifty percent of the people support him, it seems that Fuyue has really disappointed everyone.
"Patriarch, according to the clan rules, if more than forty percent of the people agree, I can challenge you to a duel, and if I win, I will be the patriarch."
"Zhishui, are you so confident that you can beat me?" Fu Yue's eyes were still so complicated when he looked at the water.
"It's not a question of confidence, it's about having to do it."
As he spoke, he opened his kaleidoscope to express his determination.
It's not a secret that Zhishui has a kaleidoscope, but it's the first time that many clansmen have seen his pair of kaleidoscope writing wheels.
"Is that the kaleidoscope writing wheel?"
"Just by opening my eyes, I can feel a sense of oppression."
The clansmen began to discuss, but Zhishui just looked at Fuyue.
Fu Yue opened his mouth and said, "Are these eyes your reliance?" If so, I have it too. ”
Fu Yue had already opened the Kaleidoscope Writing Wheel Eye a long time ago, but few people knew about it, originally he thought that he would hide it forever, but today, he had to take it out.
He also has his arrogance, which is not something that can be provoked casually.
As Fu Yue's words fell, he also opened his kaleidoscope writing wheel, he and Zhishui looked at each other, the two had not yet started to fight, but the two kaleidoscope writing wheels were already like they had begun to fight.
The people in the basement looked a little surprised.
"The patriarch even has a pair of kaleidoscope writing wheels? I didn't even know. ”
"I don't know!"
"In this way, don't we have two pairs of kaleidoscope writing wheels in our clan, so who else in Konoha is our opponent."
"It seems that this is indeed the case, but compared to this, I am now more concerned about who can win the battle between Zhishui and the patriarch."
Zhishui was also a little surprised at the moment, but he was still very firm, just like he kept saying, it was not a question of whether he had faith or not, but that he had to do it.
