Chapter 219: The Attitude of the First Wealthy Family of Konoha
Compared with the Konoha people with a weird overall painting style, and the Konoha high-level who are calm on the surface but somewhat dazed in their hearts, the Uchiha family's painting style has also become a little abnormal.
In the past, every meeting was bound to be noisy, with each person having their own ideas and opinions.
But today.
When the Uchiha Ili came in from outside, he found that the atmosphere in the hall was extremely serious, with the patriarch sitting at the top and the clansmen sitting on either side
Everyone in the hall was motionless like clay sculptures.
They didn't mean to make a move, they didn't mean to argue, they all had shocked looks on their faces, and they all bowed their heads and pondered something.
After his eyes swept around the hall, Yili stepped to the left-hand position, picked a chair that no one was in and sat down, looked sideways at the clansman sitting on the side, and asked.
"What's going on?"
The man pinched his chin with one hand, and he glanced at the patriarch with a not very good-looking face, and explained in a low voice.
"In the past two days, there has been news of the resurrection of the Thousand Hands Pillar in the village, plus our clan voted for the Thousand Hands Pillar in the Hokage vote, and the patriarch feels that we are hiding something from him."
???
A row of question marks instantly popped up above Erie's head.
When he looked up and saw that Saburo and Ryoichi were frowning with shocked and thoughtful expressions, Yili didn't think about it, his brows furrowed, and even made a smack sound in his mouth, as if he had encountered some obstacle to thinking.
It's definitely a secret.
This is not to be known to the patriarch, who has always been opposed to his own opinions.
As for the Thousand Hands Pillar
Resurrection, it must be resurrection, a few of them as parties, and even had lunch with the Thousand Hands Pillar a few days ago.
"Elder Saburo!"
At this time, Uchiha Fugaku's voice came from above, and he looked at the silver-haired old man sitting on the left-hand side, and asked, "Do you want to give me an explanation?" ”
"Alas!"
The Great Elder sighed deeply, he raised his head and looked around at the surrounding clansmen, the look of shock in his eyes had not yet dissipated, and finally his gaze fell on Fu Yue, and the old voice said slowly.
"Patriarch, if the old man said that he only pulled the clansmen to vote for disgusting Tuanzang at that time, would you believe it?"
Fuyue wanted to say that he didn't believe it.
But he looked at the look of shock in the Great Elder's eyes, and swallowed back the words that were stuck in his throat.
When Uchiha Saburo learned the news that the Thousand Hands Pillars were likely to be resurrected, the shock on his face didn't look like he was pretending, and with his understanding of the "wisdom" of the clansmen, the resurrection of the Thousand Hands Pillars should not be able to fight with the eight poles of the family.
In addition, the clansmen really don't have a good impression of Tuanzang, so it's probably really a coincidence
Thinking of this, he looked at Uchiha Eri again, a die-hard supporter of the Thousand Hands Pillar in this clan.
"Erie, tell me about it."
Glancing at Ryoichi and the others opposite, Yili's eyes turned back and forth in his sockets a few times, then he stood up and faced the patriarch, his dark eyes slowly became ruddy, and finally even filled with some mist.
"If Lord Pillar is really resurrected, the person who resurrected him is undoubtedly a genius, a top genius in the ninja world, such a genius is rare in the ninja world in the past thousand years, and what he did can be written in the history books of our Konoha Village.
I can't imagine what kind of suffering that genius went through in order to resurrect the Thousand Hands Pillar.
It could be decades of research without results, it could be that the funds were so scarce that it was a waste of food and drink, or it could even be the result of this great project in a very dilapidated laboratory."
Listening to these boastful words, Asuka and the others twitched their cheeks, and they saw that the faces of the surrounding clansmen showed a look of emotion, as if they were infected by Ilita's words.
Well, some people believe this kind of thing.
After several of them glanced at each other, they all understood what they wanted to express in each other's eyes.
"Yili, this guy doesn't want any face at all, he actually brags about himself"
Uchiha Fugaku couldn't hear that Erie was alluding to himself, after all, he didn't expect that this clansman who had studied resurrection for decades and had not made any progress would really be able to study something in the end.
It's as outrageous as if an ant and an elephant slept and the next day the elephant gave birth to a mammoth elephant.
But
He heard Yili's admiration for the Thousand Hands Pillars, and he couldn't help but sigh lightly in his heart, he really deserved to be the person in the family who admired the Thousand Hands Pillars the most.
"Is this really nothing to do with our family?"
After hearing the patriarch's voice, the birds and others in the hall were stunned for a moment, and then they all shook their heads and defended one after another.
"This matter is definitely not done by our Uchiha, if our Uchiha really masters the ninjutsu of resurrecting the dead, we can completely resurrect the previous powerhouses of the Uchiha, instead of resurrecting a foreigner."
"That's right, although the resurrection of the Thousand Hands Pillar is of some benefit to the family, it is not as good as the benefit of resurrecting them, and the logic of thinking does not make sense."
"And the most important thing is that the patriarch, as the leader of the family, you know that we people, although we are a little reluctant to admit it, but in terms of creating ninjutsu, it is indeed inferior to the Thousand Hands."
"My clan has small eyes, but few bad thoughts, how can it be possible to cooperate with others and do such things that disrupt the order of the village?"
"It's immoral to resurrect the dead, and it's certainly not our doing."
After listening to the babbling explanations below, Uchiha Fugaku thought for a while and nodded.
The family may have geniuses, but it is limited to ninjutsu, and he also knows these clansmen, just from Yili's decades of research, it can be seen that this group of clansmen has no scientific research level.
As for the family, someone cooperates with outsiders.
Thinking of the Great Elder who mentioned the proposal of the Thousand Hands Pillars to vote, Uchiha Fugaku shook his head again.
That old man is one of the few people in the family whose way of thinking tends to be close to normal, and he is also one of the few people who have been lonely all his life and dedicated everything to his family, and it is impossible for him to do such a dangerous thing behind his family's back.
It is also impossible to do something that puts the family in danger.
"This matter has been revealed for the time being!"
Seeing that the patriarch turned over the matter, the great elder glanced at the three people sitting next to him, straightened his clothes, and sat on the chair, ready to discuss the next questions.
As an Uchiha who only believes in himself, of course it is impossible for him to cooperate with outsiders.
But.
The clansmen are not outsiders, he treats them as family.
"What should we do if the Thousand Hands Pillar is really resurrected? Tell us what you think. ”
Then, Uchiha Fugaku's gaze once again fell on the Iri who had studied the Thousand Hands Pillar for decades.
The entire Uchiha, no one knows Tsuruma better than him.
Wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Eli stood up and looked around the Uchiha in the hall, the voices of this group of people representing the voices of the family.
Some of them are close to the village, some are close to the family, and some are close to both sides
But that's okay
Thinking of this, he stood up and came to the middle of the hall, and after receiving the expressions on everyone's faces, he spoke.
"As time passes, and after the older generation is almost dead, the story of the Thousand Hands Pillar has become a legend.
Those who praise him regard him as the god of ninjas.
Those who demean him regard him as a demon in the ninja world.
People who don't want him to appear are trying their best to erase his existence from history, that's right, Lao Tzu is talking about a certain strongest Hokage in all generations. ”
Speaking of this, he swallowed his saliva, giving everyone a little time to think.
Next, he is ready to use words to convince the family.
This is a plan they have made for a long time.
Then, Ely looked up at the brooding group of people, then straightened his chest and continued.
"Do you know what the biggest regret in the life of the Thousand Hands Pillar is?"
Hearing this, everyone looked up at Erie, not understanding what the old man was going to say.
They don't study the Thousand Hands Pillar, who cares what his life regrets are.
Seeing that the atmosphere in some halls was a little cold, Asuka put his right leg on his left leg and cheered.
"Before I died, I didn't see Tsunade get married."
The faces of the Uchiha people darkened, and then you and I started talking, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became lively.
It is true that some of them do not like the Thousand Hands Pillar, but it cannot be denied that it is indeed a very charismatic and qualified leader.
After discussing for a long time, they saw Uchiha Erie shaking his head vigorously, and the group turned their heads to look at the thin old man in the middle of the hall.
"Heh~"
Sensing that more and more eyes were converging on him, Uchiha Iri directly picked up the chair next to him and smashed a large hole in the wall on the left hand side.
Rumble!
There was a loud noise in the house, and Mikoto Uchiha, who was eavesdropping outside the door, jumped on her eyelids, and a # word suddenly popped out of her forehead, and she said lightly.
"Next time, the concubine will definitely let you go out for a meeting!!"
The smoke and dust that filled the room gradually dissipated, and the light from the outside shone in through the large hole.
Everyone looked at the entrance of the cave in unison, and then their eyes drifted to the half-restored Hokage Rock in the distance, and the majestic and kind human heads among the Thousand Hands Pillars were watching them at this time.
With his hands behind his back, Uchiha Eri looked up at the human head in the distance, a flash of excitement in his eyes.
"Our suffering is the greatest regret of Lord Pillar."
As the words ended, no sound sounded in the hall for a long time.
The atmosphere became subtle at this moment.
Whether you like the pillars or don't like the pillars, while chewing these words in your mouth, the life of the Thousand Hands Pillars instantly appeared in your mind.
It was a "shadow" who regarded the village as his everything.
"Our suffering, that's his biggest regret, we, Uchiha, are also Konoha villagers."
"If he becomes a leader, he will not turn a blind eye to our suffering, to the suffering of the village."
"We need a strong Shadow, a Shadow who sees all of us' suffering as the regret of his life, and this is the fairness that we Uchiha have always pursued. ”
At this time, the Great Elder suddenly stood up and came to Yili, patted him on the shoulder, and said with emotion.
"Yili, that's right, this is the first time that the old man agrees with your idea."
He turned to look at Uchiha Fugaku, who was sitting at the top of the top, took a step forward and crossed Erie, and then knelt on one knee, his expression suddenly becoming serious, and his voice becoming deep and powerful.
"Konoha Hidden Village, the Uchiha clan, the first elder Uchiha Saburo, today, identify with this person."
Ryoichi also stood up and came to Yili's side at this time, and said with a smile of encouragement on his face.
"Old thing, that's a good point, you moved the old man."
Then, he also came to the Great Elder's side, knelt on one knee, and said slowly in the old man's voice.
"Konoha Hidden Village, the Uchiha clan, the second elder Uchiha Ryoichi, today, identify with this person."
Seeing that both of them had expressed their positions, Uchiha Madou stood up expressionlessly and also came to Yili's side, nodding.
"You want to support the idea of the Thousand Hands Pillar to become the Hokage again, the old man knew about it decades ago, and from then until now, the old man has not agreed, in addition to the fact that the old man is not optimistic about you, there is also a reason that the old man has an opinion on the Thousand Hands Brothers.
But nowadays. Konoha and Uchiha may really need such a "shadow". ”
A smile suddenly appeared on Madou's expressionless face, he smiled and patted Yili on the shoulder, and then crossed his body to the Great Elder, knelt down on one knee, and said.
"Konoha Hidden Village, the Uchiha clan, the fifth elder Uchiha Madou, today, identify with this person."
Syllable!
Seeing that the group of old men did not follow the script again, the bird slapped his forehead, and then got up and came to Yili's side, but he didn't dare to pat the old man's shoulder, but said directly.
"Old man Yili, his mouth is good, and he moved me."
Yili looked at the Uchiha Asuka who turned away, his lips moved slightly, but before he could say anything, he heard a sonorous voice in front of him.
"Konoha Hidden Village, the Uchiha clan, the owner of the kaleidoscope writing wheel eye Uchiha Asuka, today, identify with this person."
The people around looked at the four people in the middle of the hall, and their eyes suddenly became complicated.
The weight of the four of them.
It's too heavy.
Thinking of the possible ascendancy of Tuan Zang in the future and the ape Fei Ri Chop who might be re-ascended, a person from the crowd once again came to Yili's side and nodded.
"The voice of the family's dissatisfaction is getting louder and louder, and the Uchiha really needs a "shadow" who treats him fairly. ”
The next moment.
As more and more people stood up, Uchiha Erie's eyes couldn't help but become a little rosy.
Although the first four are support, the back ones are not
"Tsuruma-sama, your Hokage position is in play."
"The No. 1 wealthy family in Konoha agrees with me!!"
