I followed the second elder to an unknown house in the family. I saw the second elder open the door and walk in. On the way, I was thinking about it. I didn't interact much with the other members of the family, so why was it that I was now receiving attention? I was sure that the second elder must have investigated my strength in detail.
The second elder sat down and gently said to me,"You sit too."”
As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper and handed it to me. I took it and saw that it was an application form for early graduation. My heart skipped a beat. Could it be…
"You must take the test for early graduation and pass it smoothly.”The second elder said indifferently, ignoring my ugly expression.
"Our pommel horse clan was once a wealthy clan…Our ancestors followed the first generation and established Kogyo. When it was flourishing, even the Uchiha clan who had awakened the Shura Eye could not be compared to our Blood Successor Awakened in terms of illusions. Our illusions could also seal White Eyes, but this situation slowly changed…" The Second Elder's tone was low and his words gradually attracted me.
" Very few of our Blood Successors have awakened, and none of them have since. The number of elite Illusion Ninjas sent to the village by our family has decreased. This is the main reason. In order to save our family, we forcefully sent a large number of ninjas to the battlefield. Only now did we realize that this was destroying our foundation. Now, our family has no more tolerance. The family head and other elders have either died in battle or died of old age. Do you know... There are only a dozen or so Chuunins and an old man like me left in the clan!”The 2nd Elder seemed very sad. Suddenly, he became agitated and even went a little crazy. I couldn't help but feel pity for this headstrong and autocratic elder.
The Second Elder took a few deep breaths and gradually calmed down. He continued," Just like that, the family declined. It could not even be considered a second-rate family. A dozen or so Chuunins could not become Jounins. A dozen or so children in your generation could not be nurtured either. Of course, this was what I thought before. I had originally lost confidence in the family, but the third generation suddenly found me!”The second elder's gaze towards me became scorching hot, as if he wanted to melt me.
" I didn't expect that there would be you in the new generation. I didn't think much of you at first, thinking that your highest achievement would be a chuunin. However, the third generation confirmed that you have a high chance of becoming an elite jounin who is proficient in illusions. I guarantee that once you become a jounin, you will be the chief of the pommel horse clan!”The Second Elder's sudden assurance made me feel a little helpless.
"Perhaps you still have some doubts and hesitations. Please forgive me for underestimating you before. "If you become the clan leader, you will have a place in the Muye Elder Council. You will be able to fight for more benefits for the pommel horse clan. It will also be for the future prosperity of the pommel horse clan. Our clansmen, including you and your descendants, will have better development. The pommel horse clan will also be able to become your strong backing! Perhaps you have also felt the surging waves in the darkness of the leaves.”The 2nd elder tried to convince me. I also admitted that in this ninja world, the family was an important factor. Without a doubt, his words moved me. It was exactly as he said. Even if it wasn't for others, just for myself and my descendants, I should revitalize this family.
I nodded to the 2nd Elder to indicate that I agreed with him. The 2nd Elder smiled in relief.
"I know that your strength isn't much weaker than the little brat from the Qimu clan. First, you have to successfully graduate and become a Genin to shut the mouths of the other clans in Muye.”
"I will. I will submit the application to Naruto III tomorrow. Please train me seriously!" Now, I have some respect for this old man. Even if he is stubborn about his family, it is still a kind of stubbornness for important people or things.
"No need. I'll send someone to pass it to the third generation.”The second elder got up and walked into the inner room. I followed closely behind. The corridor was relatively dark. I could only see the outline. Soon, I reached the end. It was a dead end.
The Second Elder formed a few seals and pressed his hands against the wall. The wall immediately emitted a blue light. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a small-scale barrier. The wall opened with a crack, and light shone in front of them.
