Chapter 188 Defeated Zhang Huo·Inaugural Speech

A dozen people squeezed into the not-so-large living room of Uchiha Mikoto's house.

Uchiha Clan leader and Grand Elder Uchiha Shichito.

Uchiha Guard Captain and Second Elder Uchiha Sanei.

The third elder of Uchiha, Sora Uchiha.

𝟼𝟿Book →𝟼𝟿sʜᴜx.ɴᴇᴛ

Uchiha, the son of the fourth Uchiha elder, and Setsuna Uchiha, the fourth elder, are still in jail for leading their troops in rebellion.

Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Akira, Uchiha En, and several other clan members who have activated the three magatama.

There are not many Uchiha who can participate in the clan association now, unlike after the Fourth World War when a large number of Uchiha opened their eyes.

Precisely because there are so few people, there are no hawks or doves.

"Sanrong, why are you holding a clan meeting all of a sudden and at your house?" Qidou asked.

Others turned their heads silently and looked at Sanrong.

Uchiha Sanei said: "I have called everyone here today because I want to get everyone's opinions on something!"

He pointed at Uchiha Mikoto beside him: "My daughter, the future clan leader, madam, wants to be the captain of the Uchiha Guards."

"Everyone, do you have any comments?"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the Uchiha looked at each other in confusion.

You have said so, who dares not to support it?

Moreover, Mikoto is already very popular within the clan, and many young ninjas like her. If she were to be the guard captain, the thought of working under Mikoto would actually not be bad, right?

There are also some people who don't want a woman to serve as a guard captain, but they themselves are not qualified, so they look to other qualified people.

For example, Fugaku, Zhanghuo, Yan.

If Fugaku serves as the guard captain, Zhang Huo and Yan will naturally not be able to compete, but if Fugaku is not appropriate, Zhang Huo and Yan are also qualified to compete for this position.

Uchiha Akira stood up simply: "I don't agree with this decision!"

"Oh? What's your opinion?" Uchiha Sanei asked.

"We Uchiha have always respected the strong. Fugaku is strong. I have no problem with him serving as the team leader and police captain. But why do you, Mikoto? Just because you have a father who is a police captain?"

"Yes!" Yan next to him echoed: "Even if Fugaku is wrong, it won't be the turn of a female like you!"

Sanei looked embarrassed and looked at Mikoto. He could strongly support Mikoto's rise to power, but the people under your command would eventually be unconvinced.

Mikoto's face was very calm, and she asked with a smile: "So you mean, you are better than me?"

"Of course!" Zhang Huo nodded naturally. He is 27 years old this year. He opened his eyes earlier than Mikoto, and is certainly stronger than Mikoto.

"You can't tell whether you are strong or not!" Mikoto said coldly.

"Then let's go to the venue and compete!" Zhang Huo said casually: "Since Fugaku doesn't want to be the guard captain, then I will be the one!"

Fugaku moved his mouth on the side, but he didn't say he didn't want to be a member!

But after struggling for a long time, he still didn't speak.

Qidou looked at Zhang Huo, then at Mikoto, then turned around and asked, "Sanrong, what do you mean?"

Sanei looked at Mikoto, only to see Mikoto nodding towards him.

"Are you confident?" Sanrong asked softly.

"Yes!" Mikoto replied.

If it was two days ago, she didn't have it, but now she does!

"In that case, let's have a competition among those who are qualified to be the guard captain!" Sanei said: "Fugaku, Mikoto, Zhang Huo, Yan, the four of you go back and prepare. See you at the venue in an hour!"

To be on the safe side, he added Fugaku.

If Mikoto is defeated, the guard captain will still have to be handed over to Fugaku.

"Yes!" Zhang Huo and Yan immediately frowned. This plus Fugaku was making things difficult.

But it’s not impossible to win.

After leaving the door, Zhang Huo waved and called Yan over. The two discussed it for a while before they separated.

This scene was watched by Qidou who was following behind, but the four of them were not competing for the position of clan leader, so he didn't bother to care!

An hour later, the Uchiha venue was actually a training ground in the center of the clan. On weekdays, many people would train here.

But today, the edges of the venue were bustling with people. Everyone from the Uchiha clan came running over after hearing that there was a lot of excitement.

Uchiha Obito was also mixed in. He followed Kakashi on a D-level mission. The mission content was in Konoha Village, so he finished it early and rested, just in time for this competition.

"I heard that this competition will determine the guard captain. Who do you think will win?" asked a peer next to Obito.

"Who is participating?" Obito asked.

"Lord Fugaku, Lord Mikoto, Lord Akira, and Lord En!"

"Then I definitely support Mikoto-sama!" Obito replied without hesitation.

The child looked at Obito with contempt: "Mikoto-sama is obviously the weakest among the four, you pervert, you can't support Mikoto-sama just because he is beautiful!"

"I just think Mikoto-sama is very gentle. If she serves as the guard captain, it will be good for us Uchiha and the village!" Obito hurriedly retorted, how could I be lustful? I am devoted to Nohara Rin wholeheartedly.

"Tch!" The friend didn't believe a word of it.

But after thinking about it, he nodded: "Let me tell you, if Mikoto-sama serves as the captain of the security force, I would like to work in the security force!"

"What's the difference between you and me!" Obito said angrily.

"hey-hey."

"Coming!" Someone shouted, and the entire venue fell silent instantly.

Immediately afterwards, four passages were opened, and four young people who were not tall but high-spirited walked out of the passages.

Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Akira, Uchiha En, and Uchiha Mikoto!

The first three looked like they were dead at home, with the kind of cold arrogance common among the Uchiha clan. On the contrary, Uchiha Mikoto was smiling brightly, and from time to time she stretched out her hand to say hello to the people around her.

This action instantly detonated the entire Uchiha.

"Ah, Mikoto-sama!"

"She smiled at me!"

Someone screamed very loudly.

The corner of Mikoto's mouth twitched. Where did this fandom culture come from? Why did it invade Uchiha?

However, this kind of shouting is indeed very exciting. Even some tribesmen who did not support Mikoto are now being inspired.

After a while, the four of them stood still.

Uchiha Sanei came to the center of the venue as the host.

"Everyone must already know the whole story of today's incident, that is, the four best young people in our clan will fight to determine the strongest one to serve as the captain of the Uchiha Guards. But in the end, It’s just an intra-clan competition, so let’s leave it at that.”

"The first group, Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Yan, form the seal of opposition!"

The whole process is extremely simple and there is no unnecessary nonsense.

The two young men came to the venue, completed the seals, and started fighting directly.

Everyone is an Uchiha, and they are all three Magatama, so illusions are basically useless and are just a waste of chakra.

What matters more is physical skills, operation, reaction speed, chakra amount, and the ability to grasp the fighter plane.

Although Uchiha Fugaku has a weak personality, as the father of Itachi and Sasuke, his fighting and physical talents are first-rate, and he can crush Yan in all aspects.

Otherwise, his position as patriarch would not be so secure.

Normally, Yan would have given up defeat long ago.

But Yan fought very hard today, even though he knew he was losing, he still had to fight hard.

Fugaku didn't want to hurt the tribesmen, so he held back his strength and fought, but Yan was in a desperate posture, using all kinds of large-scale fire escapes without risking his life.

So much so that the two of them actually had a 50-50 draw in the early stage!

But the gap in hard power was there, and Fugaku finally won Yan.

The onlookers were excited, but the people participating in the game and the elders next to them saw the clues.

"Let Yan consume a lot of Fugaku's physical strength and chakra, and then wait for Zhang Huo to defeat me, and then defeat Fugaku who is out of shape!" Mikoto frowned, did she really treat me as a soft persimmon?

"Katsu Fugaku, next group, Uchiha Akira, Uchiha Mikoto!"

At the venue, Uchiha Akira stood in the center with a confident teleportation technique.

In front was Uchiha Mikoto, who had changed into loose clothes to facilitate physical combat.

On her back, she also carried a long cylindrical bag wrapped in velvet.

"You know you can't beat him, so you want to take this opportunity to show off your figure?" Zhang Huo mocked.

After all, Mikoto's clothes are different from the traditional ninja vest. Although it is very loose, it does show off her figure when she moves around.

Especially since the audience around them all have Sharingan eyes, they shouldn't be able to see too clearly.

Mikoto smiled and ignored it, just looking at Sanei.

"Then, form the seal of opposition and let's begin!" As soon as Sanei finished speaking, both of them had opened their Sharingan.

"Shuriken" The Uchiha clan is the best in the world in throwing shurikens. Other ninjas use shurikens just to say hello and test the enemy's strength.

Uchiha's shuriken can kill people with just one hand.

Even if you can't kill him, there are follow-up moves that are difficult for ordinary people to react to.

"Little trick!" Mikoto stretched out her hand, and the long barrel behind her fell into her hand. Then she raised her hand and waved several shurikens away.

"What weapon, a stick?" Uchiha Akira frowned and was about to form a seal when he saw a red bag being thrown over.

He quickly dodged. Although the bag was soft and soft, ninja methods were hard to detect. How do you know this bag is not poisonous or that there is no snake in it?

But he didn't know that the moment he gave up the seal and dodged, the outcome of this battle was already decided!

Two long sticks appeared in Mikoto's hands, and when they were combined in the middle, they formed a two-meter-long spear!

"Huh?" All Uchiha present widened their eyes.

Spear? This weapon is rare!

The next second, the spear was heading straight towards Uchiha Akira.

Zhang Huo quickly retreated. The tip of this spear was so sharp, it was no joke to get stabbed!

While retreating, he also took out a short sword, preparing to fight with Mikoto.

But soon he discovered that he couldn't fight!

First of all, the speed of the spear is too fast, and it is easy to retract and thrust with force, while the speed of the short knife is not only slow, but also requires an extremely powerful swing to block it.

Secondly, the attack range of the spear is too long. The distance of two meters, plus Mikoto's arm is nearly three meters, is comparable to the attack range of ordinary ninjutsu.

And the length of his short sword plus his arms is less than one meter!

And lastly, the gun head was still wrapped with red tassels, which kept dangling in front of his eyes. Although the Sharingan was not easy to be dazzled, it was extremely obstructive to his vision and greatly reduced his ability of three magatama!

"You have to keep the distance, or get close to Mikoto, it would be too much of a disadvantage to fight like this!" Zhang Huo took several steps back. He was indeed faster than Mikoto, so he could keep the distance.

But this is not a forest, it is a venue, an arena, and the space is limited!

Although there was no rule that he would lose if he left the ring, but with the pride of the Uchiha clan, there was no way he could quibble.

Retreat, if you can't retreat, you will leave the ring if you retreat again.

Then go forward.

Zhang Huo immediately rushed forward and at the same time used the short knife in his hand to exert force.

I just need to block the spear first, and then use a teleportation technique to approach Mikoto, and that's it, right?

Her weapon is so long that she can't fight back when she gets close!

He thought it was beautiful, but he just swung the short sword, and Mikoto's spear had already been withdrawn, and then stabbed again.

This time Zhang Huo couldn't dodge and was directly stabbed in the shoulder by Mikoto.

He only felt a sharp pain, and when he glanced at the tip of the gun, he discovered that there was a layer of transparent liquid on the tip of the gun!

"This gun is poisonous!" Zhang Huo was stunned and had been shot four or five times in a row!

Although they were not fatal injuries, Zhang Huo only felt waves of severe pain after the liquid from the gun entered the wound!

"Bang!" With the last blow, Mikoto changed from stabbing to sweeping, directly knocking Zhang Huo out of the ring, who was unable to fight back, and then she held up a beautiful gun flower and coolly put away the gun.

"It seems I won!" Mikoto smiled.

"You, despicable!" Zhang Huo was surprised to find that he could still speak despite being poisoned.

As long as you can speak, let’s expose Mikoto’s ugly face first.

"In a family competition, you actually used poison?"

A female ninja immediately ran up and helped Uchiha Akira up. This was his wife Uchiha Gen.

Uchiha Gen's eyes were scarlet red, and the two magatama were spinning in his eye sockets. He was so angry that he opened his Sharingan!

Mikoto was speechless. Looking at the questioning looks from all directions, she spread her hands and said, "Of course I know this is a competition within the family. How could it be poisoned?"

"Then what did you put on the tip of the gun? Why does it hurt me so much!" Zhang Huo grinned and his lips turned white!

"This is salt!" Mikoto said lightly: "It prevents the tip of the gun from rusting!"

"Salt? What kind of poison is salt? Is there a poison called salt?" someone asked.

The ninja next to him immediately covered his face: "Salt, the salt you usually eat when cooking!"

"Oh." Everyone suddenly realized, and Zhang Huo regarded the salt as poison.

Looking at Zhang Huo at this time, the look in his eyes had changed from sympathy to contempt.

After all, he is a Jonin. Can't he tell the difference between salt and poison?

Zhang Huo himself felt ashamed. He was still in terrible pain, so he tilted his head and fainted in his wife's arms.

Uchiha Genya felt a little embarrassed and bowed to everyone first: "I've caused trouble to everyone!"

Then he picked up Zhang Huo and left quickly.

Mikoto nodded and stood proudly with a gun. Coupled with the red training uniform, she actually had a charm that was different from that of a ninja.

She looked at Fugaku: "Next, it's your turn!"

"I surrender!" Fugaku raised his hand directly. His purpose in participating was to defeat Zhang Huo and Yan. Now that these two people have been eliminated, there is no need to go up.

And no one would laugh at him if he gave up, because he did use a lot of ninjutsu just now, and everyone saw it!

On the other hand, Mikoto used no ninjutsu and only used a spear, but her chakra was still full.

"Since Fugaku has admitted defeat, the winner of this competition is Mikoto!" Sanei stood up and said loudly: "Then I hereby announce that from today on, I will no longer serve as the captain of the Uchiha Guards. This position will be taken by Uchiha. Mikoto inherits! Mikoto, tell me something!”

Mikoto nodded, came to the center of the venue, and said loudly: "Brothers and sisters, uncles and uncles, grandparents, hello everyone, I am Uchiha Mikoto, and I am also the incoming captain of the Uchiha Guards!"

Seeing that there was no excitement, many people were planning to leave. Now Mikoto started talking again.

Then you might as well give it a listen.

The main thing about the Uchiha clan is that they never interact with others and keep everything to themselves.

This was Mikoto's first time speaking in public, and everyone wanted to hear what Mikoto had to say.

"As we all know, the relationship between our Uchiha clan and everyone in Konoha is not very good. The reason is that the Konoha villagers who are members of the security team do not understand each other well!"

Many ninjas who had worked in the security force suddenly rolled their eyes. They said it too tactfully. Not only did they not understand, they almost started fighting!

"I have never worked in the security force, but I am a ninja from Konoha. I have always had a problem that I don't understand. Ninjas need to pay for helping others. We security members maintain law and order and help the people, but it has always been voluntary labor. Then why do people prefer ninjas to security guards? "

"Do they like spending money?"

"Eh?" Uchiha Sanei and Uchiha Nanto looked at each other, yes, why is this?

Logically speaking, free services should be more popular anyway!

"I also learned that the villagers of Konoha are often harassed by various gangsters, ninjas, and ninjas. We protect them, but why are the protectors scolded and the bullies not?"

"Do the villagers of Konoha naturally like to be bullied?"

"That's right!" The members of the Uchiha Guard also fell into deep thought.

We are obviously doing good things, so why are we not welcomed?

If you want to say that we Uchiha are careless about human life, partiality and corruption, that's fine, but we didn't do these things!

As for bullying the inferiors and fawning on the superiors, there is no such thing. The Uchiha clan has always been a clan that does not necessarily arrest ordinary people who commit crimes, but the ninja clan will definitely be detained if they commit crimes.

This should be bullying the superiors and fawning on the inferiors!

But the Uchiha clan has a bad reputation among the people of Konoha!

Is this reasonable?

"I don't think this situation is normal. I think everyone is like us Uchiha clan members, believing in truth, goodness and beauty, and justice. I also believe that everyone can distinguish right from wrong and know who is good to them and who is bad to them."

"If that's the case, why does this situation still occur?"

Looking at the ninjas who were lost in thought around her, Mikoto curled her lips: "I am the captain of the guard team to figure out this problem, and then solve this problem, so that the reputation of the guard team can return to where it should be, and let everyone who has contributed to the village receive the evaluation he deserves!"

"So I am the captain of the guard team, not for greed and power, and not for oppressing the people. I am only for fairness and justice in our hearts, and even in Konoha Village!"

"Okay!" A strange voice sounded in the crowd: "Mikoto-sama, we support you!"

"I want to be Mikoto-sama's dog!"

Uchiha Mikoto blushed, who the hell is this, I have a good inauguration ceremony!

Don't let me catch you, if I catch you, you will suffer!

"Then, all the guards present here, go and notify the other guards who are on duty in the village, and all members will gather at the guard headquarters. The new chapter of the guard will begin today!"

"Okay!"

This time it was not just one person shouting, but everyone was shouting.

She is beautiful, strong, heroic, wise, and courageous!

If such a person cannot conquer everyone, what kind of person can?

Not only ordinary people, but even Fugaku and Yan, looking at Mikoto holding a spear high with a firm look in her eyes, they all felt ashamed inexplicably.

Especially Fugaku, who had an idea inexplicably in his mind.

Such an excellent woman, I don't seem to be worthy of her!
