Konoha's Five Attributes Ninja

The reason why Ye Shan interrupted the exam before Uchiha Fugaku was for his own reasons. Uchiha Fugaku was a spectator today, and even though his status was not low, he was at best a VIP audience. Ye Shan was different, he was the examiner appointed by the Third Hokage, and no one could find fault with him even if he interrupted the exam.

In fact, Jiraiya had already used some means to try to protect the two people who were in a passionate collision, but he never expected that Uchiha Fugaku could not keep his cool and Hayama was even faster, which made him, the examiner, a little unhappy, but he quickly returned to normal. Everyone has the feeling of protecting their own child, and it is not a taboo.

The next match was between the Sand Ninja and the Rock Ninja. Hayama and Uchiha Fugaku had no interest in watching it, so they simply went to the medical room to visit Uchiha Huoyu.

After the battle, Uchiha Huoyu didn't suffer any injuries. It was just the exhaustion of chakra and the weakening of mental strength that caused his face to be unusually pale. He was lying on the bed in a daze. When he heard footsteps, he looked up and saw Uchiha Fugaku and Hayama coming. He hurriedly struggled to sit up and saluted.

"Young Clan Leader, Master Ye Shan."

Ye Shan smiled and nodded, admiring the Uchiha clan's genius boy in front of him: "How do you feel?"

"It's nothing serious, just a little tired." Uchiha Huoyu replied.

Uchiha Fugaku stepped forward and carefully checked the other party's mental state. After a moment, he whispered, "It's normal to feel tired. You just opened your double magatama Sharingan, so it's inevitable that you will be mentally exhausted for a while. Just rest for a few days and you'll be fine."

"Thank you for your concern, Young Clan Leader."

Uchiha Fugaku smiled and said, "You can call me Young Clan Leader when outsiders are present, and call me Uncle in private. Your father is my cousin, so there is no need to be so formal."

"Uncle Clan!"

"Hahaha, I won't call you uncle in vain. When you recover, you can go to the clan's barracks to get a ninjutsu. I'll consider it my reward to you." Uchiha Fugaku said happily.

The barracks is an institution within the Uchiha clan that specializes in managing ninjutsu scrolls. It contains countless powerful ninjutsu, which is the heritage of the clan for nearly a thousand years. Under normal circumstances, family ninjas need to make certain contributions before they can enter the selection of ninjutsu. Uchiha Fugaku's behavior is undoubtedly trying to win over the other party.

This is understandable. Uchiha Fugaku is now confirmed to be the next clan leader. It is his right to win over a few talented clan members. Even if they belong to the elders, they still have to survive under the clan leader's orders.

The great elder Uchiha Shishan does not have much time left, and it is only a matter of time before the clan leader's line overwhelms the elders' line. Uchiha Huoyu, as the grandson of the second elder, naturally knows the development trend of the clan. Seeing Uchiha Fugaku showing such goodwill, he was overjoyed in his heart and his face showed happiness.

"Thank you for your care, uncle."

"You deserve this, no need to thank me. I hope you will practice diligently in the future and not bring disgrace to the Uchiha clan."

"Yes!"

Ye Shan listened to the stiff conversation between the two with a smile, and waited until Fugaku finished speaking before speaking: "Okay, don't be so serious, it's like a clan meeting. Huoyu, are you hungry? I'll have someone bring some food to you."

Uchiha Huoyu scratched his head and said, "Sorry to bother you, Lord Yeshan. I'm really hungry. I didn't dare to eat much in the morning. I only had a bowl of porridge."

Uchiha Fugaku's serious expression melted away. He was a mild-tempered person, but the wrinkles on his face made him look stern. "Just tell me what you want to eat. Today's food is pretty good."

Today's food is more than just good, it can be said to be extremely sumptuous. You have to know that these meals are used to entertain ninjas from outside the village, so they naturally cannot be simple, otherwise it would not be worthy of the title of Konoha's number one ninja village.

Not long after, the ninja who received Ye Shan's order came in with a wooden tray, greeted respectfully, and then left.

A bowl of crystal clear rice with plump grains, a plate of fresh and delicious looking vegetables, a plate full of beef, a fried orange herring, a fist-sized lion's head and a bowl of soybean paste soup, exuding the aroma of food, stimulated Uchiha Huoyu's gluttony.

"Grumpy"

A sound came from Uchiha Huoyu's abdomen, which made Ye Shan laugh. He then pulled Uchiha Fugaku out of the ward and let him eat to his heart's content.

The two came to the corner of the corridor. Ye Shan took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out one and handed it to Uchiha Fugaku, then lit one for himself.

"Hi~hoo~"

Feeling the unique pleasure of tobacco burning into the lungs, Ye Shan narrowed his eyes and whispered: "What have you been busy with during this period?"

Yeshan has been busy preparing for and supervising the Chunin Exams recently. He hasn't chatted with Uchiha Fugaku for a long time and doesn't know what the other party has been doing.

"What else are you busy with? The Security Department has a lot of trivial tasks to do every day, but you are quite free." Uchiha Fugaku said unhappily.

"Hey, those who are capable should do more work. Don't compare yourself to an idle person like me."

"By the way, I heard that you caught a spy named Yakushi Nono outside the village yesterday. Did he reveal any information?" Uchiha Fugaku asked casually.

"She was very tight-lipped. I wanted to kill her, but Tsunade showed up and had a history with her, so I let her go. Is she someone powerful?"

Uchiha Fugaku was somewhat helpless: "She is a well-known figure, known as a walking shrine maiden, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a spy expert. In recent years, she has been working for Shimura Danzo, and has stolen a lot of useful information."

Ye Shan raised his eyebrows, knowing that Uchiha Fugaku was thinking of recruiting her. After all, the Uchiha clan was not suitable for carrying out undercover spy missions, and there was no reason to send gold to the wolf's den, so he chuckled and said, "I didn't expect that the other party was so famous, otherwise I would have to keep her no matter what."

After a pause, he continued, "There are also many good spies among the spies. Is there any need to win her over?"

Given the past friendship between them and Tsunade, Yeshan naturally wanted to protect Yakushi Nono, or at least not force her to work for the Uchiha clan, as Tsunade had a bad temper.

"That's true. It doesn't matter who you use, so let her go. Come to my house for a few drinks tonight?"

Uchiha Fugaku changed the subject and invited Hayama to drink tonight, but it was unclear whether he was really going to drink or if he wanted to discuss something.

"It depends on the situation. You know I'm very busy every night now." Ye Shan's tone was quite helpless. He was no longer the free man who could do whatever he wanted. There was a tigress watching over him at home.

Uchiha Fugaku was trying not to laugh. He had never thought that the fearless Ye Shan would be afraid of his wife. He teased, "It's good to have someone to watch over you, so you don't mess around outside."

"You are slandering me, you are slandering me, but you must speak with conscience. I am an honest person and have never done anything wrong." Ye Shan was a little anxious. How could this person slander him? Even if he had the mind to do so over the years, he did not have the energy to do so.

"Hahaha, I won't tease you anymore. Come to my house for dinner when you have time. Itachi has been talking about you for a long time."

Ye Shan smiled and asked, "How is the clan's preparation for war? We don't know when the Ninja World War will break out, so it's always a good idea to prepare in advance."

Counting on one's fingers, the Ninja World has been at peace for several years. According to the law, the next war will break out within five years. This is something that everyone knows. As long as the five major countries exist in the Ninja World, the war will not stop.

It all comes down to a question of resource allocation. Konoha Village is located in the center of the continent, and it has a lot of tasks to complete on weekdays. It collects a lot of money, so it has no shortage of money. But there are only so many tasks in the ninja world, and Konoha takes up most of them. Naturally, the income of other ninja villages is much less. Over time, their strength will gradually widen, which is something they don't want to see anyway.

Therefore, the Ninja World War will definitely break out unless Konoha is willing to allocate resources to other countries. However, Sarutobi Hiruzen is not a fool. He can't do such a stupid thing. The ninja clans in the village will not allow him to do so. When it comes to interests, let alone Sarutobi Hiruzen, the third generation Hokage, even the second generation Hokage would not dare to offend the public. You must know that Konoha Village is not the village of the Hokage alone, but the village of everyone.

In recent years, the conflict between the Uchiha clan and the Hokage clan has been intensifying. Once the Ninja World War breaks out, they will definitely be sent to the most tense battlefield. At that time, they may follow in the footsteps of the Senju clan. Of course, they must accumulate strength in peacetime to prepare for a rainy day.

"Everything is being deployed according to the plan. Ninja tools and food are fully prepared. It's just that the number of Jonin in the clan is a little less."

"It's not good to be too comfortable!" Ye Shan sighed.

"It's really not good. There is a hedonistic trend rising within the clan. It really makes me angry. Those bastards are so disappointing." Uchiha Fugaku was so indignant that even the cigarette he was smoking didn't smell good anymore.

Speaking of which, this is inseparable from Yeshan. It was he who persuaded Uchiha Shinichi to set aside a large area for business, which led to many families in the clan becoming wealthy. People with money will inevitably indulge in pleasure and forget the fact that strength is the key to success in the ninja world.

"Kick them all to the border patrol. If they don't open their eyes, don't even think about returning to the village. We must be tough with these people." Ye Shan suggested sinisterly.

Uchiha Fugaku nodded in agreement. He planned to bring this up at the next clan meeting, and let those parasites who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun go to the border to starve. Otherwise, the Uchiha clan would lose its reputation in the long run. He knew what the Uchiha clan relied on for thousands of years. A little money was nothing in front of strength. Only strength was king.

"This matter still needs detailed planning, so there is no rush. Fortunately, there is still plenty of time, and the Ninja World War will not break out in the short term."

The two smoked a cigarette and chatted for a while. When they heard the exclamations coming from the arena, they decided not to be lazy any longer and sat back in their seats, watching the game nonchalantly.

There is really nothing to watch in the battles between Genin. Freaks like Uchiha Huoyu and Yozuki Tobiraki don't appear every year. Most battles of Genin still rely on physical skills and hidden weapons. It is unrealistic to expect them to release gorgeous ninjutsu one after another.

Time passed in Ye Shan's daze. The third match was over. The name on the electronic screen made him alert and drove away the sleepiness in his body.

"Hatake Kakashi VS Uchiha Obito"

After seeing this, Ye Shan almost cursed out loud. It was a black whistle, definitely a black whistle. The old man Sarutobi Hiruzen was so evil that he actually arranged for Kakashi and Obito to fight each other. His conscience was simply eaten by a dog.

Who doesn't know that Uchiha Obito and Hatake Kakashi are inseparable partners? This arrangement is too blatantly shady.
