Uchiha Clan Residence
Shang could be considered as the target of the Uchiha Clan's attention. Since Shang had completed the mission of killing all the bandits in the bandit stronghold nine months ago and returned to Uchiha, Shang had gone out to do this kind of killing mission almost every two weeks. As the killing accumulated, Shang's temperament had also changed. Although Shang was always cold in the past, he made people feel that he was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. However, the current Shang was friendly to everyone in the clan, smiling. However, it gave off an even colder feeling. This huge contrast made the family less worried about Shang at first, but as time passed, they got used to it.
In fact, Shang had become like this because the name Uchiha and his family had become more important to him. Ever since his first killing, he had felt emotional and determined. Following the subsequent killings, Shang had a new understanding of the cruelty of this world.
"Lord Shang!""Lord Shang!"
As Shang walked along the corridor, all the adults and children who passed by bowed slightly to him, and Shang responded to them one by one. Shang was now more important to the Uchiha clan than his father, Uchiha. After all, Uchiha had been seriously injured after being ambushed by Shinobu Tenjin. He would never be able to improve in his entire life, and would only be at the Quasi-Shadow level for the rest of his life. This was an incredible strength for an ordinary person or a small ninja clan. However, for the powerful Uchiha clan, a mere Quasi-Shadow was not enough. Therefore, the current Uchiha was only a transition item for the Uchiha clan before Shang became the leader of the Uchiha clan. Although this was a little unfair to Uchiha, in the struggle for power, even father and son, brothers, could turn against each other. However, Aoran Uchiha was still very satisfied with the current situation. He could spend more time at home with his wife and son, and occasionally deal with family affairs (because Uchiha's main task now was to know about Shang).
conference hall
"I disagree, Sir Qi. Shang is only 7 years old, isn't it inappropriate to go to the battlefield so early in the morning? After all, Shang is not a cannon fodder child to our Uchiha Clan. Everyone, please forgive me for saying the word cannon fodder, but this is the truth. Shang is a genius, a true genius, so I don't want our Uchiha Clan's geniuses to go to the battlefield too early without much self-protection ability. You have to know that this is a battlefield, not a place where bandits and bandits are not allowed."The battlefield is ever-changing. Even Sir Qi can't guarantee Shang's safety. Besides, Sir Qi, Shang is your grandson," an elder said excitedly.
It turned out that during the Elder Council meeting, they were discussing the battle against the Thousand Hands Clan. Suddenly, Uchiha Kai suggested that Shang follow the ninjas of the Uchiha Clan to the front line. This immediately caused a huge uproar in the Uchiha clan. There were some who supported it, but most of the Elders did not. After all, in the minds of these Elders, war was cruel. No matter how talented Shang was, he was still a genius who had not grown up. Therefore, some of the Elders wanted Shang to learn more survival skills from Uchiha.
Just as the Elders were having a heated discussion, Shang arrived at the meeting hall.
At this moment, Uchiha, who had been sitting there silently since the suggestion, opened his eyes and said with a dignified expression,
"Shang, you're here. I called you here to ask you a question.”
All the elders stopped talking. They knew that Uchiha was ready to solve the problem with Shang on the table, so it was better to let the grandfather and grandson solve it themselves. After all, Shang was Uchiha's grandson, and even if it was for the sake of the entire Uchiha clan, Uchiha would not harm Shang.
"Hmm? Grandpa, please speak." The moment Shang walked into the hall, he felt that the atmosphere was a little off. It was a little dull, and when he suddenly heard his grandfather ask, it seemed that he needed his opinion on something, so Shang answered after a moment of hesitation.
" It's like this. You should know that our Uchiha clan is considered a noble clan in the Ninja Realm. However, our enemies are also very powerful. The one who ambushed your father last time was the Hinata clan. The Hinata clan has one of the three great eye techniques, White Eyes. Although the Hinata clan is powerful, it can't be compared to our Uchiha clan. Our biggest enemy is the Thousand-Hand clan known as the Thousand Hands of the Forest. Their current clan leader, Thousand-Hand Kaede, has a very powerful Wood Bloodstain. In some aspects, it is even stronger than our Uchiha clan's Shurunyan. And it is precisely because of the intensity and cruelty of war that I want you to go to the battlefield to gain experience. What do you think?" Uchiha said with a calm expression.
"Of course, I know how powerful the Thousand-Hand Clan is. The future Thousand-Hand Clan will be the leader of the Five Great Shadows in pacifying the chaotic world.”Shang cursed in his heart. Then, he answered decisively,
"Grandpa, I want to go to the battlefield. After all, I can't live under the wings of you, father, mother, and the family for the rest of my life.”
"Shang, it's a good idea that you're doing this for the family. However, you're still so young, and we all hope that you'll have more self-defense power before you go to war. After all, you're different from my useless grandson.”An elder persuaded with a pleasant expression.
"Third Elder, first of all, I think that I will only be fighting with my peers on the battlefield, and only those who have been through the battlefield and survived can be considered strong. If I retreat this time, then I might not be able to survive the battlefield the next time I have greater strength. Finally, I think that I can't agree with what you said about your grandson." However, I think that as long as we are members of the Uchiha Clan, we should be united and have equal status. If I am a genius, and Tie is not, then he should go to the battlefield and become cannon fodder. This will not bring any practical benefits to the Uchiha Clan. Therefore, I think it is better for me to go to the battlefield to gain experience. As for Tie, I think we can let him cultivate for two more years. This way, the benefits of the Uchiha Clan will be maximized..." Shang said calmly.
"Shang, to think that you can think of everything so thoroughly, it seems that I, as an Elder, have underestimated you.”
The one who had spoken just now was the Third Elder. He did not expect Shang to be so impassioned as to say such a thing to convince these old guys. However, he felt warm inside. After all, this was his grandson. If it was not for the sake of the family, who would be willing to let their own relatives "die"?
"Since Shang has already said so, then everyone, is there anyone who doesn't agree to let Shang go to the battlefield to gain experience? If not, then it's settled.”
Just as the elders were still thinking about Shang's words, Uchiha's concluding and decisive words rang out.
"Since Sir Qi has already decided, then we can't reject him. However, Shang must be protected by a strong candidate. Today, I can confirm that even if Shang's strength is not too strong in the future, Shang will still be the only candidate for the next leader of the Uchiha clan.”The Great Elder suggested.
"That's right, Shang is the one who is most likely to lead our Uchiha Clan to glory. For him to think so much at this age, you can see his wisdom.”The Third Elder said.
As soon as Uchiha finished speaking, the First Elder voiced out his thoughts, which was quickly approved by most of the elders.
