Naruto: Uchiha Youngjo's Konoha Spring

Chapter 7 Patriarch
After the matter at the village entrance was over, Uchiha Douhuan, who got what he wanted, also returned to the clan territory with his fellow tribesmen.

On the way back, some radical members of the tribe wanted to say something, but when they saw Uchiha Douhuan's back, they tactfully shut their mouths.

After returning to the clan, Uchiha Douhuan turned around and said, "I know everyone has a lot of doubts, so let's hold a clan meeting while everyone is here."

Naturally, everyone present had no objection, and the lights were lit in the family shrine. However, when Uchiha Dohuan sat down, he took the first seat below Uchiha Fugaku.

In response to this, the elders looked at each other and tacitly acknowledged the fact that the Uchiha clan respected strength, and even if Uchiha Dohuan, who had awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, wanted to be the clan leader, they would support him.

As for Uchiha Fugaku, who had remained silent all the way, he glanced at Uchiha Dohuan and continued to remain silent.

"Are all the ninjas above the Chunin level in the clan here?" Uchiha Douhuan asked after seeing everyone take their seats in turn.

"Everything is here." Uchiha Inahimi responded first.

"Okay, then, first of all, I want to become the patriarch of the Uchiha clan. Whoever agrees, whoever disagrees." Uchiha Douhuan threw out a royal bomb at the beginning.

Compared with the intrigues with the Hokage family, Uchiha Douhuan chose the simplest and most brutal approach when it comes to issues within the clan.

Upon hearing this, the clan members present fell into chaos. Shisui and Itachi in the crowd looked at Uchiha Dohuan with incredible eyes.

At this time, a dovish elder took a moment to organize his words before speaking, "Dou Huan, now that you have awakened your Mangekyō Sharingan, it should be no problem for you to take the position of clan leader. However, you haven't participated in clan meetings much in all these years, and you don't know much about the clan's problems. It would be too hasty to rush into the position of clan leader."

"That's right, Douhuan, you should first understand the situation in the clan, and then become the clan leader after a year or two." At this time, the radical elders also spoke in support. Judging from Uchiha Douhuan's speech at the village entrance just now, Uchiha Douhuan did not seem to be on their side.

"Haha." Uchiha Douhuan sneered, "I know the situation in the clan very well, which is why I won't attend the clan meeting."

"Tell me, after all these years of clan meetings, what have you come to a conclusion?" Uchiha Douhuan rested his hands on the table, examining each of the elders sitting in the front row. "Should we rebel directly with force, or should we simply surrender to the village? If you could have come to a conclusion, I wouldn't be sitting here today."

"Disorderly quarrels will only drag the clan into the abyss in chaos. The Uchiha clan doesn't need endless clan meetings, but a leader who can lead the clan out of the predicament. The clan only needs one voice!"

Uchiha Douhuan's words were deafening. The tribesmen looked at each other and fell into silence for a while.

"I support Dou Huan to become the clan leader!" At this time, Uchiha Inahib stood up and was the first to break the silence.

Today, Uchiha Douhuan slaughtered nearly a hundred Root ninjas in front of him without any hesitation, which made him become a fanatical follower of Uchiha Douhuan.

"Dou Huan has the Mangekyō Sharingan! I also support him becoming the clan leader!" Uchiha Zaidou also spoke out in support. Soon, under the leadership of the two, the young and strong in the clan all voiced their support for Uchiha Dou Huan to become the clan leader.

"Enough!" Uchiha Fugaku suddenly spoke, suppressing the noise in the venue. Then, he looked at Uchiha Douhuan: "Douhuan, from what you said, you should have a plan."

"Since I'm standing here, I naturally have a mature plan. I believe that with the vision of Clan Leader Fugaku, he should be able to see the future of our clan." Uchiha Douhuan said, looking directly into Uchiha Fugaku's eyes.

Although Uchiha Dohuan's words were rather obscure, Fugaku understood what he meant. Uchiha Dohuan must have guessed that he also possessed a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan.

Although he could keep his position as the patriarch as long as he showed his kaleidoscope at this moment, could he really be exposed?
If someone in the clan could remain calm with only a pair of Mangekyō, then once his pair of Mangekyō was exposed, the last bit of composure of the entire Uchiha clan would disappear completely. At that time, they would have to rebel even if they didn't want to.

Uchiha Fugaku looked at Uchiha Douhuan meaningfully. After a long while, he finally spoke: "Well, the family is in trouble now, and I, as the clan leader, cannot escape the blame. Douhuan, the family is left to you."

"Lord Patriarch!"

"Father!"

Itachi and Shisui immediately became anxious. Unlike other members of the tribe, they knew clearly how crazy Uchiha Dohuan was. Although Uchiha Dohuan's speech at the village entrance just now seemed to be from the perspective of the village, Uchiha Shisui still remembered Uchiha Dohuan's crazy remarks last night clearly.

"Don't let your clan members down, Dohuan." Uchiha Fugaku ignored Shisui and his son, patted Uchiha Dohuan's shoulder gently, and gave up his seat.

Just before heading to the village entrance, Uchiha Fugaku had seen everything with his Mangekyō Sharingan, which could see some fragmented future. The appearance of Uchiha Dohuan made unexpected changes in the future. Although it was still unclear, it was at least much better than the original future that had no hope at all. So at this moment, Uchiha Fugaku had no attachment to the position of clan leader.

"That's exactly what I wish for." Uchiha Douhuan came to Fugaku's seat and didn't rush to sit down. Instead, he looked at the elite members of the Uchiha clan before him and slowly said, "The Uchiha clan has been a glorious clan since ancient times. Now we are just facing a little difficulty. I will lead everyone to restore the glory of the Uchiha clan, and this glory will not be mine alone."

"Obey the orders of the clan leader! Loyalty! Sincerity!" Uchiha Inahiro, who has long been a little fan of Uchiha Dohuan, saluted like Uchiha Dohuan did at the village entrance!
With someone taking the lead, all the young members of the Uchiha clan, except Shisui and Itachi, stood up and saluted.

"loyalty!"

Seeing this, some clan elders who still had doubts about Uchiha Douhuan's succession as clan leader could only remain silent.

Uchiha Douhuan looked at the people below with satisfaction. Although most of the Uchiha clan members were not very smart, as long as they had a backbone, their loyalty could be absolutely trusted.

"I have two things to announce next." Uchiha Douhuan signaled everyone to be quiet.
