Chương 54: Chapter 53: The Uchiha Clan Doesn't Seem So Evil After All
As the morning sun rose, the Uchiha clan started to bustle with activity.
People brought out the ingredients they had prepared earlier.
They tidied up the space to avoid overcrowding.
After lunch, the Uchiha clan received some guests.
"Welcome, Nara clan head! I didn't expect you to arrive so early."
"Isn't this the Akimichi clan head? Please come this way, we have unlimited barbecue and other food here."
"Yamanaka clan head, your daughter is definitely a genius in the making."
"Inuzuka clan head, we also have top-quality dog food here."
"Whoa, when did you get here, Aburame clan head?"
Raijin had Elder Hiashi welcome the guests at the entrance.
He greeted the clan heads of each family in Konoha.
These were their important guests.
Each of them was accompanied by two Jonin and their wives and daughters.
Everyone looked around the Uchiha clan's territory with curiosity.
They rarely came to the Uchiha clan's land.
This place felt somewhat mysterious to them.
Moreover, they came this time with a mission - to investigate the Uchiha clan.
"Elder Hiashi, hello, hello! Please forgive us for not coming personally."
"How could the gathering of all the major Konoha clans be complete without our Kurama clan?"
A few uninvited clans also joined in.
Especially the Kurama clan, why were all the other clans invited.
But they were specifically left out? Their clan had also once been glorious in Konoha.
Was this looking down on their Kurama clan?
"Kurama Sōun clan head? I didn't expect you to come, please come in quickly."
"Is this your daughter? She's so beautiful, the future of the Kurama clan will surely rise in her hands."
Elder Hiashi always had a warm smile on his face.
He welcomed all the uninvited clans without exception.
Moreover, Hiashi noticed that these clans were putting on a brave face despite their financial difficulties.
They brought their clan's strongest ninjas, as well as their wives and daughters, to watch the event.
Wasn't this directly providing benefits to their Uchiha clan?
Uchiha Hiashi didn't even bother asking Raijin.
He directly invited these people to come inside.
These were the future family members of their Uchiha clan.
Was there any reason to refuse them?
"Elder Hiashi! Is Raijin inside?"
Uchiha Mikoto, dressed in formal attire, displayed the dignity of the Uchiha clan head's wife.
She had a gentle smile on her face that was captivating.
She was holding the hand of a pouting little boy.
Although the boy had an arrogant expression on his face.
His eyes scanned the faces of the other children.
His father had given him a task.
He had to demonstrate the strongest power of an Uchiha genius.
"Lord Raijin will be here in a while, you can take the child inside first."
Hiashi pondered for a moment and let Uchiha Mikoto enter.
Uchiha Mikoto nodded slightly, her face expressionless.
Even though her husband was the head of the Uchiha clan, their family now felt like outsiders within the Uchiha clan.
But Mikoto didn't argue with Hiashi. Her goal was to connect with the wives of the other clans.
Befriending these people would ensure that the Uchiha still had friends in Konoha in the future.
"Kakashi Jonin! I didn't expect you to arrive on time! It's a surprise that you're not late."
Hiashi looked at the approaching white-haired man and said in a strange tone.
How could he not know Konoha's genius ninja, Kakashi?
"..."
o(￣ヘ￣o#)
Kakashi's face showed a hint of embarrassment as he felt the strange gazes from the clan heads and Jonin around him.
There weren't many people in the Uchiha clan who knew how to speak properly.
These guys!
After Kakashi arrived, Kurenai Yuhi and others also arrived one after another.
The Jonin specially invited by Raijin came together in groups.
These Jonin arrived in full attendance, not one more or one less.
Even Ichiraku Ramen was brought in to make ramen on the spot.
The Akimichi clan's barbecue chef was also brought in to grill meat.
There were also many other stalls, either invited by the Uchiha or set up by themselves.
In short, the Uchiha clan was doing everything they could to make it lively.
"Hasn't Raijin Jonin arrived yet? I'm afraid it might not be good for the evening competition."
Nara Shikaku walked around the Uchiha clan's territory. Except for the restricted areas, they had basically seen everything else.
They were even invited to visit the Naka Shrine.
He saw Uchiha Jonin making dumplings and grilling meat for them.
This made Nara Shikaku twitch his lips. What was the Uchiha clan up to?
What were they trying to achieve by doing this?
Today's Uchiha clan was too abstract!
"Lord Raijin? He should be arriving soon! Why don't we let Uzuki Yuyan and our Uchiha Chunin demonstrate some swordsmanship first?"
"I heard that Miss Uzuki Yuyan joined the Anbu with her extremely powerful swordsmanship, using the Second Hokage's sword techniques, which are very different from our Uchiha sword techniques."
"It's just a friendly sparring match!"
Elder Hiashi was a bit troubled, wasn't it still not time yet?
He looked to the side and saw a beautiful purple-haired girl chewing on a three-colored dumpling.
He immediately changed the subject and started the rehearsal.
"Ah? Okay!"
Uzuki Yuyan looked confused but was also prepared to embarrass herself today.
She came here for the Uchiha sword techniques, so what did a little embarrassment matter?
Uchiha Hiashi called over a Chunin, and the two of them started performing on the prepared stage.
Their swordsmanship was dazzling, although not as flashy as ninjutsu.
But it was still very entertaining to watch.
The children who hadn't entered the ninja academy yet applauded, their eyes sparkling.
Especially the girls, seeing Uzuki Yuyan's valiant posture.
She instantly became their childhood idol.
After Uzuki Yuyan finished, it was Kurenai Yuhi's turn.
Her genjutsu performance was average. The Kurama clan expressed disdain, while the Uchiha showed friendliness.
Kurenai Yuhi stepped down with an Uchiha genjutsu scroll, her face filled with satisfaction.
Losing to an Uchiha ninja wasn't shameful, they specialized in genjutsu with their Sharingan.
Her genjutsu was just small-scale.
Before coming, Kurenai Yuhi had already discussed with Uzuki Yuyan about how to handle embarrassment.
She was well-prepared.
"Ahem! Next, let's have our children compete against each other."
Just as Kakashi was about to go on stage and hang a dog's head on the earthen wall.
Hiashi stepped forward and pushed Kakashi aside.
"Hmm?"
"Is it finally starting?"
"The Uchiha's food is quite good, I wonder if there will be such a good opportunity again in the future."
"You Akimichi clan will die from eating one day."
"The insects tell me that there seem to be many Uchiha Jonin around! They're very strong."
"This is the Uchiha clan after all! I think you Aburame clan are overthinking it."
...…
The people who were originally strolling around gathered near the constructed competition stage.
Although it was a bit boring, after interacting with them personally.
They found that the Uchiha didn't seem as evil as the Konoha higher-ups had said.
Some of them were even very straightforward, speaking their minds without any ulterior motives.
Their impression of the Uchiha clan had greatly changed after this trip.
The Uchiha, who founded Konoha together with the Senju clan.
They weren't as scary as they had imagined.
"Hello to all the clan heads and Jonin of Konoha!"
Raijin walked out from behind and took Hiashi's place to host this farce.
