"What did you say!?"
Sasuke couldn't stand the old man's rude words anymore, and his dark pupils suddenly turned blood red.
In his eyes, the three tomoe slowly rotated.
Even if the other party was an elder of the clan, Sasuke would never allow him to insult his most respected brother.
He deliberately restrained his killing intent, but even so, his blood-red eyes were still full of awe.
This momentum attracted Fugaku's attention, and he was a little surprised.
The people who can sit here are naturally the elites of the Uchiha Clan, so Sasuke's momentum didn't scare them.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Sasuke's three tomoe Sharingan.
There are not many clansmen who can open their Sharingan to the three tomoe state, not to mention Sasuke is so young.
It seems that they have underestimated the second son of the Patriarch.
"Sasuke." Fugaku looked at Sasuke and motioned him to calm down.
Although the latter was extremely angry, it was impossible for him to attack the elder in front of so many clansmen.
Sasuke took a light breath, and his pupils returned to normal.
"Hehe, not even a little bit of courage can be seen, such an Uchiha is really sad."
The old man sneered, he and Fugaku's father are of the same generation, and his status in the clan is second only to the Patriarch, so he doesn't know what fear is.
Fugaku frowned, if it was just the old man alone, he would have a way to deal with him.
The root of the problem is that most of the people here think so.
At this moment, the door of the meeting room was opened.
Everyone looked at the door, and Uchiha Yan walked in.
"Why are you here?" The old man looked at Uchiha Yan, and his tone was slightly heavy.
"I am an elder of the clan, is there a problem with me being present?" Uchiha Yan's eyes fell on the old man indifferently.
That being said, in fact, Uchiha Yan rarely participates in the clan's meetings.
Being stared at like this, the expression of the old man who had been speaking confidently earlier changed, and he immediately fell silent.
It's not that the elder was scared by Uchiha Yan, but he knew that the latter held an important position in the Anbu and had a very close relationship with Naruto.
If what he said just now fell into the ears of Naruto and the other higher-ups, it would bring disaster to the clan.
Of course, he didn't want to see that happen.
Seeing that the old man was speechless, Uchiha Yan looked around and said faintly, "Wasn't it very lively just now? Why did you stop talking? "
Uchiha Yan is also an elder of the clan, except for the old man and Fugaku, no one dares to contradict him.
Thus, the clan meeting ended on a sour note.
...
Fugaku's face was ashen.
After returning home, he brought Sasuke to the dark living room.
"Do you have anything to say about the content of the clan meeting just now?" Fugaku asked while looking at Sasuke with his hands behind his back.
Sasuke pondered a little and said, "I think that although the elder's words were a little harsh, some aspects are not necessarily untrue."
"With the current strength of the Uchiha clan, it is indeed enough to have a place among the higher-ups."
Nowadays, the Uchiha Clan has a lot of elites, and not to mention others, just the Mangekyo Sharingan of Uchiha Uchiha Yan, Itachi, and Shisui is not something the other clans in the village can compare with.
Even the Hyuga Clan is far behind the current Uchiha Clan.
"Do you really think that the things in your heart really belong to the current Uchiha Clan?" Fugaku asked.
Sasuke's pupils shrank slightly, he has never thought about this question carefully.
He is not familiar with Uchiha Yan and Uchiha Waterstop, but he knows some things about these two.
Uchiha Yan helped the current Naruto from the beginning to create the current relationship between the Uchiha Clan and the village's higher-ups.
And Uchiha Waterstop was once the disciple of Minato Watergate.
What is the position of these two people, he doesn't know.
Even if it is his brother, who he thinks is the most familiar with, thinking about it carefully, Sasuke can't be sure what is in his heart.
Perhaps, as his father and the previous elder said, although the current Uchiha Clan seems to be strong.
But in fact, that kind of strength doesn't necessarily belong to the Clan.
"I know what is in your heart, but you have to remember one thing."
Fugaku stared at Sasuke and said in a low voice, "Although the current Naruto is generous and generous, and has given the Uchiha Clan such a reputation in the village."
"But in any case, he has never been on the same side as the Uchiha Clan."
"Maybe you can't understand it now, but that man has left a shadow in the Wood Leaf Clan, and even now it can't be eliminated."
"Yes, Father, I will remember."
Sasuke nodded, and at the same time, he also thought of the man mentioned by his father.
The ancestor of the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Madara.
...
The next day, Itachi, who had just returned home from a mission, slightly sensed something and turned his eyes.
Sasuke came out from the corner of the entrance.
"What happened?"
Itachi suddenly noticed that Sasuke should have been waiting for him in front of the house all night.
Sasuke walked in front of him and said with a slightly heavy face, "Onii-san, there are some things I want to ask you anyway."
"Why didn't you come to the Clan meeting last night?"
Itachi was stunned, and his face gradually became solemn.
"As you can see, I was on a mission, and I didn't have time," Itachi responded.
Sasuke's face suddenly showed a puzzled look, and said, "In Onii-san's heart, is the Village's mission more important than the Clan meeting?"
Itachi didn't expect Sasuke to suddenly ask this.
He frowned, then looked at Sasuke and asked, "What happened last night, why did you suddenly …"
"Answer my question, what is Onii-san thinking in his heart?"
Sasuke asked step by step, and didn't intend to explain anything to Itachi.
It was also the first time that Itachi saw such an expression on Sasuke's face.
He looked directly at Sasuke's eyes and said, "Sasuke, we were indeed born in the Uchiha Clan, and carry this surname."
"But you have to know that whether it is the Uchiha or any other surname and family, we are all Wood Leaf Shinobi."
"If there is no village, even the most glorious surname of Uchiha in the hearts of you and me will become meaningless."
Sasuke's eyes flashed, he stared at Itachi's eyes and suddenly asked.
"So, if one day you have to make a choice between the Clan and the Village, what will Onii-san do?"
