Her daughter didn't even dare to express her feelings. Could she compete with Tsunade-sama's disciple?
It seemed a bit unlikely.
Never mind, let the children handle their own affairs.
Shaking her head, Hazuki decided not to worry about it.
This time she was indeed a bit too enthusiastic. Besides caring about Yan, she wanted to wake up her daughter and Yan.
But her daughter just sat there giggling, and ended up scaring Yan away.
The atmosphere in the village was visibly changing. In addition to the increase in Anbu personnel, many ninja squads had returned to the village and joined the patrol and guard teams.
News about Wood Release and human experiments gradually spread from the Daimyo's mansion.
When the news reached Konohagakure, the Third Hokage did not send anyone to intercept it. He was already prepared for the worst.
Yan sat quietly in the police department, eating melon, watching the drama, and watching the situation develop in a fierce direction.
He was also ready to attend the clan meeting and entertain Danzo.
Danzo had been sent to prison and received special treatment.
Just waiting for the Anbu and the prison duty ninja to arrange everything, the Uchiha people could enter the prison and personally guard Danzo.
In order to put pressure on Konohagakure, the Daimyo even sent a delegation to Konohagakure to inquire about this matter.
The number of people in the village discussing this matter is also increasing.
Everything is ready, just waiting for the event to spread over time.
After work, Yan went home to wash and change into clean clothes, and took Izumi to the clan meeting.
This is Izumi's first time attending a clan meeting. The little girl was very nervous and carefully followed behind Yan.
On the way, they met people heading to the clan shrine and stopped to greet them immediately.
In order to build a momentum, Fugaku allowed all the Chunin of the clan to attend this month's clan meeting.
Fugaku knew very well that the younger generation of ninjas in the clan almost all saw Yan as an idol and admired him. With the participation of these younger clan members, and with Yan leading the way, they could definitely force the hardliners to back down.
Don't underestimate these young ninjas.
If these young ninjas don't support you, or even feel that you are unwilling to contribute to the clan, only knowing to rely on the old and sell the old, holding on to the power in your hands, then your reputation in the clan will definitely plummet.
Izumi is attending the clan meeting for the first time. In order to prevent this girl from making a joke because of nervousness, or being reprimanded, Yan had to take her along.
"Don't be nervous, act naturally. Although this is your first time attending a clan meeting, and you and Aunt Hazuki are outsiders, as long as you don't make mistakes, no one will take the initiative to trouble you."
On the way, Yan comforted the nervous Izumi.
"Besides, even if you make a mistake, what can happen? Don't forget, you are now my person. Whoever dares to trouble you is going against me, Uchiha Yan, even the clan elders have to weigh it."
"Is the captain so powerful?"
After Yan's comfort, Izumi slowly relaxed and followed behind Yan with a face full of admiration.
Just because her body hadn't grown open yet, her stride couldn't keep up with Yan when she walked, which made her walk slower normally, and faster when she ran. She could only take one step at a time, then bounce, to keep up with Yan.
She looked like a little rabbit, hopping around.
"Nonsense, otherwise, do you think that all the people on the way, you greeted, others responded enthusiastically?"
Because she was a newcomer and a junior, Izumi greeted all the seniors on the way to the shrine, without exception, everyone responded to Izumi with a smile.
Some even stopped to chat for a while.
It gave Izumi the illusion that the clan seniors seemed to be quite easy to get along with.
Actually.... easy to get along my ass!
Even within the clan, if your strength is not strong enough, and you don't have enough deterrence, do you want to get everyone's recognition and respect?
It's Difficult!
It's okay between ordinary people, but Uchiha ninjas, the stronger they are, the more they like to keep a cold face.
"I thought everyone had become very easy to get along with."
Izumi smiled shyly, followed Yan closely, fearing that Yan would leave her behind and go on his own.
At the clan shrine, Fugaku hadn't arrived yet, but the guards of the clan leader's courtyard were already here.
Seeing Yan coming, several guards bowed their heads slightly to greet him, and Yan also nodded in response, taking Izumi into the shrine.
Because there are more people attending the clan meeting, and this clan meeting will not discuss anything about the village, so the confidentiality work does not need to be too strict.
The venue for the clan meeting has also been moved from the secret room to the main hall of the shrine.
"Yan!!"
"Yan, you're here."
With Yan's arrival, many clan members got up to greet him. Yan responded with a smile, and didn't forget to introduce the little girl behind him.
"This is Uchiha Izumi, my work secretary. Since this is her first time attending a clan meeting, she is a bit restrained. Everyone relax, don't scare the child."
"Hahaha...."
As soon as these words came out, everyone burst into laughter.
Izumi was so embarrassed that she clenched her small fists, blushed, and lowered her head like an ostrich.
A few older Jonin of the clan leader even joked:
"Shyness won't work. Since you are Yan's person, you have to learn from him. When Yan first attended the clan meeting, he completely ignored us old guys!!"
You guys are too much.
Even your own dark history can be brought up.
Yan laughed speechlessly, walked to the front and sat down. Enjin made faces and squeezed the people around him to make room for Izumi.
Izumi also became the only one with Chunin status, but she was sitting among a group of Jonin and special Jonin.
This made those clan Chunin sitting in the back very envious.
Unfortunately, Izumi had Yan's support and could directly sit in the front, but they couldn't.
Even the clan elders wouldn't let them sit in the front. As for Izumi... just consider it as giving Yan a face.
Izumi obediently hid behind Yan, not even daring to stick her head out.
As time passed, more and more clan members arrived.
The clan elders also arrived, but a few of the hardline elders had already realized that Fugaku would make trouble at the clan meeting, so they looked worried.
Especially when they sat down and saw Yan not far away, their hearts thumped.
They are not afraid if Fugaku makes a move, what they fear most is Yan making trouble.
When Yan gets angry, he doesn't care about clan rules, plus there were rumors in the clan before that Yan's blood disease had worsened.
The elders are afraid that Yan will act more recklessly because of the worsening of his blood disease.
I'm already at death's door, do I still care about your clan rules?
If I see something I don't like, I'll mess with it. If I see someone I don't like, I'll mess with you. Anyway, I won't live long.
Shortly after the elders arrived, Fugaku also brought Itachi, who could attend the clan meeting.
However, Itachi did not sit in the front, but obediently sat in the back with the clan's Chunin.
Fugaku who was sitting in the clan leader's position took a look at Izumi who was obediently hiding behind Yan, and calmly said:
"Then the monthly clan meeting begins."
With Fugaku's opening, it means that the clan has something important to discuss, everyone can slowly talk and negotiate.
"Patriarch."
Yan was the first to raise his hand and stand up.
This kid better not make any tricks.
Seeing Yan stand up, the hardline elders' eyelids jumped, and the clan members were also surprised to look at him, thinking:
Why is Yan so proactive? It's just the beginning.
