Chapter 71 - The Yuhi Clan

"Do you know why the clan meeting was held?"

Shigeru, who was really confused, looked at the clan member who came to inform him.

The clan member nodded slightly and explained, "This morning, three people from the Yuhi clan came to the clan. It's probably related to them, but I don't know about the rest."

Is that so? Shigeru nodded.

People of the Yuhi Clan, why do you come to the Hagoromo Clan?

"I'll be right there"

Originally, I wanted to pick a task and go out and do it tomorrow, but now it looks like that plan will have to be postponed for the time being.

I'd better go to the clan meeting first to see why the Yuhi clan is here.

The clan member who brought the message nodded, turned around, and left to inform the others.

Shigeru took Aibo and walked towards the place where the clan meeting was held.

"Stay out here, if you dare to run and cause damage, there will be no dinner for you today!"

When they reached the door, Shigeru looked at Aibo with warning eyes.

After hearing Shigeru's words, Aibo barked at the top of his lungs, indicating that he understood.

Seeing this, Shigeru nodded.

After entering the house, Shigeru sat in his seat.

At this time, Patriarch Ryokawa and the two elders, Kazuo and Zenitsu were already sitting there.

As for the former Grand Elder Ryōzan, because he was very seriously injured, he died from his wounds after the war.

Thus, the former Second Elder Kazuo became the Grand Elder, while Kazuo became the Second Elder.

After about five or six minutes, except for the Elite Jonin who were on a mission, everyone else arrived.

Ryokawa looked around and then said, "Good morning, people from the Yuhi clan suddenly came to our Hagoromo clan to ask for help."

Basically everyone present knew about this, so it didn't generate any reaction.

Ryokawa continued "According to the Yuhi clan, the Tsuruta clan to the east of them has suddenly increased in strength for some unknown reason this year, and during this year, they often harassed the Yuhi clan, a while ago, the Tsuruta clan suddenly launched a large-scale attack on the Yuhi clan, due to the large gap in strength, the Yuhi clan has been steadily retreating.

Hearing this, Hagoromo Tohō couldn't help but ask, "Patriarch, so the Yuhi clan has been defeated and is nearing extermination, what does that have to do with us?"

Ishihara, who was standing beside him, nodded, "Yes, it's just a small clan, even if the Tsuruta clan inexplicably becomes stronger, it won't threaten us, our strength hasn't fully recovered yet, there's no need to meddle in other people's affairs."

Although the others did not speak, they looked around, nodded and agreed with his views.

Shigeru, who was sitting, did not interrupt.

Regarding the Yuhi Clan, his knowledge was limited to the anime he had watched in his previous life, and he knew that the Yuhi Clan would produce a top-tier beautiful girl in the future.

He also knew that Yuhi Kurenai's father, Yuhi Shinku, would be a genjutsu master and serve as an instructor for Konoha's chunins and genies, and his status is not low.

At the same time, Yuhi Shinku's genjutsu is said to be very powerful, even the Uchiha clan must pay attention to it.

Other than that, Shigeru didn't know much about the Yuhi clan.

Therefore, Shigeru has no good or bad opinion of the current Yuhi clan.

Observing the attitudes of the clan members, Kazuo, who was standing beside Ryokawa, received instructions from the patriarch and said, "This time, the Yuhi clan came to ask for our help and in return they promised that as long as we could save the Yuhi clan, the Yuhi clan would take the initiative to become our affiliated ninja clan."

Hearing this, all the elite jounin attending the clan meeting were shocked.

"Is such a thing true?"

You should know that joining a ninja clan is different from forming an alliance. Once you become an affiliated ninja clan, the Yuhi clan will lose almost half of its freedom.

The patriarch of his clan not only has to obey the orders of the patriarch and elders of the Hagoromo clan, but he also has to bow his head and greet these three people as his superiors.

Furthermore, all materials produced by the Yuhi clan, except those they themselves need, must be handed over to the Hagoromo clan.

Even the family ninjutsu must be handed over to the hands of the Hagoromo clan.

It can be said that as long as they become a ninja clan affiliated with the Hagoromo clan, the life and death of the Yuhi clan will be completely controlled by the Hagoromo clan. At that time, the Hagoromo clan will be able to manipulate the Yuhi clan at will.

Therefore, during the Warring States Period, unless they were desperate, no ninja clan would be willing to humiliate themselves and become a subordinate of another clan, because that would be almost the same as dying.

"Has the Yuhi clan reached this point of despair?"

After a long time, Tohō asked.

The patriarch and the two seated elders nodded, confirming the authenticity of the news.

Seeing the reaction of the clan leader and the elders, Ishihara was the first to react "We must support them!"

"Yes, let's hurry up and provide support."

"Yes, this is a great opportunity to restore the strength of our clan!"

At that moment everyone in the room became excited.

You should know that although the Yuhi clan is a small clan, it is still relatively strong among small clans. Even if they are experts in genjutsus inherited from their clan, they are not far behind the larger clans.

If the Yuhi clan had not been too small in number and had a patriarch with the strength level of a clan leader, their strength would have been ranked among the second-rate ninja clans.

Therefore, although the Yuhi clan is a small clan, its strength can be seen with the naked eye.

Now, after a war that nearly wiped out the entire clan, the Hagoromo clan suffered extremely heavy losses. Even after more than a year of recovery, it still hasn't regained its strength.

But now, suddenly, they were presented with an opportunity to legitimately absorb the Yuhi clan. How could the people of the Hagoromo clan oppose the idea?

After all, as long as the Yuhi clan can become a vassal of the Hagoromo clan, then the strength of the Hagoromo clan can recover faster.

With such a big temptation in front of them, they really can't calm down.

Seeing this situation, Ryokawa also laughed, "Since everyone agrees to support the Yuhi clan, then we will send clan members to support. Is anyone willing to go?"

The words fell, all the clan members rushed to offer their help.

Seeing the reactions of the clan members around him, Shigeru couldn't help but stand up, "I'll go."

After all, in the anime, the beautiful Kurenai left a very deep impression on Shigeru.

Now, how could I pass up the opportunity to go see what was happening to the Yuhi clan?
