"Clan Chief Taro should regularly have the clan's strongest members pass on their relevant experience and skills to other clan members, and answer the questions that clan members encounter in their cultivation."

Listening to the suggestions from everyone, Uchiha Taro sighed inwardly.

These are all just clichés. While they are not entirely useless, the facts have proven that these measures are not very effective.

The Uchiha clan's influence in the village was declining day by day, and their reputation was getting worse and worse.

Sometimes, Taro Uchiha really doesn't understand why, despite his hard work, the Uchiha's situation in the village seems to be getting more and more difficult.

Just then, a young voice rang out: "Clan leader, I have an idea about making the Uchiha clan stronger and stronger."

Taro Uchiha looked up and saw that Yuzuru Uchiha had already stood up.

Upon seeing this young figure, Taro Uchiha couldn't help but feel a surge of curiosity.

What insights will this universally acknowledged genius of the new generation, a fourteen-year-old boy who just defeated Fugaku, offer on this matter?

Despite his curiosity, Taro Uchiha didn't have high hopes for Yuzuru Uchiha's suggestion.

Unlike simple combat, in this kind of situation, without rich experience and knowledge, it's impossible to offer any effective advice.

Clearly, the other clansmen thought the same thing as Uchiha Taro, and they all looked at Uchiha Yuzuru with amusement.

Although they admired Yuzuru Uchiha's strength, this kind of thing has absolutely nothing to do with strength.

Chapter 4 Early birth! Multiple births! Over-birth!

"Ahem... Yuzuru, since that's the case, why don't you tell us your thoughts?"

At Uchiha Taro's prompting, Uchiha Yuzuru spoke calmly: "If you want the Uchiha clan to become stronger and increase its influence, there is a simple and effective way!"

Seeing how serious he was, everyone couldn't help but adopt a posture of listening attentively.

Then, Uchiha Yuzuru slowly said, "Have a child!"

After hearing what Uchiha Yuzuru said, everyone was stunned.

They then looked at each other, their faces showing strange expressions.

What kind of method is this?

Ignoring the expressions of the crowd, Uchiha Yuzuru continued, "I propose that all clan members must marry before the age of twenty!"

"We want to have children early, have many children, and have more than the allowed number!"

"Only in this way can our Uchiha clan become stronger and stronger."

Many people felt insulted upon hearing Yuzuru Uchiha's outrageous remarks.

Fugaku Uchiha couldn't help but stand up and say, "Yuzuru Uchiha, watch your words! This is a clan meeting, not a place for you to spout nonsense!"

As soon as Fugaku Uchiha finished speaking, someone immediately chimed in, "That's right, are you looking down on us? Are you telling us to place all our hopes on the next generation?"

"I thought you were capable, but I never expected you to be so weak at heart!"

"Our Uchiha clan will never stoop so low as to rely on children to prove ourselves."

Seeing the crowd's agitated state, Uchiha Taro quickly waved his hand to stop them.

After everyone quieted down, he turned to Uchiha Yuzuru and asked, "Yuzuru, tell us your reasons. Everyone is waiting for your explanation."

Uchiha Yuzuru was not surprised by the reactions of the crowd.

It's indeed a blow to the pride of these Uchiha clan members, whose pride is inherent in their bones, to pin their hopes for the future on having children.

With that in mind, Uchiha Yuzuru organized his thoughts and continued to state his views.

"As everyone should know, population is the foundation of a ninja clan. The larger the population, the stronger the ninja clan."

"During the Warring States period, many ninja clans raided people from other places in order to increase their clan size."

"Take Konoha for example. When the village was first established, the Senju and Uchiha clans were undoubtedly the most powerful ninja clans. But what about now?"

"The Senju clan has disappeared, and the Uchiha clan can only barely maintain its dignity by relying on its past glory."

"And the Sarutobi clan, the Shimura clan, the Utatane clan, the Mitomon clan..."

"The ninja clans that we once trampled underfoot have now become a force that Konoha cannot ignore."

"The reason why Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura dare to suppress the ninja clans so vehemently is because of the confidence they have gained from their clansmen, isn't it?"

Power and strength are complementary.

Although Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo Shimura, and others gained Tobirama Senju's approval, how could they have firmly grasped power without the support of a powerful family?

Faced with Uchiha Yuzuru's question, everyone remained silent.

Everyone knows that Yuzuru was right.

Four families that didn't even have a bloodline limit have now become behemoths that even they dare not easily provoke, simply because of their large populations...

Seeing everyone's silence, Uchiha Yuzuru changed the subject: "The Sarutobi and Shimura clans were able to rise to power by relying on their population, so our Uchiha clan can certainly do it even better."

"Compared to the Sarutobi and Shimura clans, we not only possess powerful bloodline limits, but we also far surpass them in talent to become ninjas."

"Given the same number of people, which ninja clan could be a match for our Uchiha clan?"

After being subtly praised by Yuzuru Uchiha, the faces of the Uchiha clan members couldn't help but reveal a hint of pride.

"What Yuzuru said doesn't seem to be wrong. Having children doesn't seem so hard to accept."

"Just say increase the population, it's too blunt to say things like having children..."

"I didn't realize it at first, but now that I think about it, Yuzuru is alright."

Seeing his clansmen become lively again, Uchiha Yuzuru continued, "So... getting married and having children is not a disgrace, but a long-term plan for the revitalization of our Uchiha clan, a fundamental policy!"

"Without a population as a foundation, everything else is just castles in the air."

"For the prosperity of the Uchiha clan, I, Uchiha Yuzuru, am willing to set an example!"

The people who heard this theory for the first time were all shocked and stunned.

They never imagined that making their family stronger could be approached from this angle.

But upon closer reflection, it makes perfect sense, and there's absolutely no reason to refute it.

However, setting an example in this kind of matter just feels a little strange...

Seeing everyone's reaction, Uchiha Yuzuru didn't say anything more.

His suggestion of marriage and children was simply to prepare these Uchiha clan members, whose minds were only focused on fighting and killing, in advance.

If we really want to implement it as a clan rule, we'll probably have to wait until he comes to power.

"Ahem... Yuzuru's idea is quite unique. While it doesn't force everyone to get married before the age of twenty as Yuzuru suggests, everyone can certainly try to work towards that goal."

"Alright, that concludes today's clan meeting."

Before the sky began to lighten, Uchiha Taro concluded the clan meeting.

The Uchiha clan members left one after another.

Just as Uchiha Yuzuru was about to get up, Uchiha Taro slowly spoke: "Yuzuru, come with Fugaku for a moment."

Although he was eager to experience his newfound power, Yuzuru Uchiha wasn't in a hurry.

He followed them to Uchiha Taro's mansion and sat opposite Uchiha Taro, just like Uchiha Fugaku.

Uchiha Taro picked up a teacup and poured a cup of tea for the two of them, speaking with a smile.

"Yuzuru, your strength is somewhat beyond my expectations. I didn't expect that even Fugaku is no match for you."

Taro Uchiha looked Yuzuru Uchiha up and down, his expression showing some surprise.

As Fugaku Uchiha's father, Taro Uchiha was quite familiar with his son's strength.

Fugaku, who possesses the three-tomoe Sharingan, is one of the strongest even among the Jonin.

Unexpectedly, he was defeated so easily by Uchiha Yuzuru.

Uchiha Yuzuru didn't explain much, but simply smiled and said, "Clan leader, you wouldn't be looking for trouble with me because of your son, would you?"

Fugaku Uchiha couldn't stand it anymore. His face flushed red as he said, "Yuzuru, Father isn't that bad!"

"I lost to you today because I was not skilled enough. As your opponent, I will definitely defeat you fair and square in the future!"

Uchiha Yuzuru smiled nonchalantly and downed the tea in front of him in one gulp: "The enemies who are defeated by me are never considered my opponents. I will give you time to catch up until you can no longer see me."

After he finished speaking, Fugaku Uchiha was stunned for more than ten seconds before he came to his senses, and then he felt like ants were crawling all over his body.

You can't beat them in a fight, and you can't win an argument with them...

That brat is so annoying!!!

Seeing that Fugaku Uchiha was starting to lose his composure, Taro Uchiha coughed lightly and said at the right moment, "Actually, the reason I kept you here this time is to hear your thoughts."

What are your thoughts on who should be the next Hokage?

Chapter 5: No matter who the opponent is, the Uchiha can never become Hokage.

Upon hearing Uchiha Taro's question, Uchiha Yuzuru did not rush to express his opinion, but simply picked up his teacup and took a small sip.

Fugaku Uchiha frowned and began to think seriously.

After a while, seeing that Uchiha Yuzuru still didn't intend to speak, Uchiha Taro had no choice but to take the initiative and say, "Fugaku, you go first."

"Yes, Father."

Fugaku Uchiha pondered for a moment before slowly speaking: "Judging from the current situation, the next Hokage will likely be chosen between Sakumo Hatake and Orochimaru."

"Although Sakumo Hatake has been granted the right to wear the Hokage's half-sleeve, I still prefer Orochimaru, who is the Third Hokage's student, to become the next Hokage."

After Fugaku Uchiha finished explaining his speculation, he couldn't help but ask, "Father, are you planning to invest in the next Hokage in advance? That's not a bad idea."

However, after listening to Fugaku Uchiha's analysis, Taro Uchiha shook his head: "No, I'm thinking... could our Uchiha clan compete for the position of the next Hokage?"

"As the strongest among the new generation of the clan, I have high hopes for both of you."

"what?!"

Fugaku Uchiha's pupils suddenly contracted, as if he had heard some terrible news, and he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Competing for the next Hokage?

What a joke!

Taro Uchiha glanced at the distraught Fugaku Uchiha, then at Yuzuru Uchiha, whose expression had remained unchanged throughout, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

He intended to groom Fugaku as the next leader of the Uchiha clan, but compared to Yuzuru, Fugaku's performance was somewhat disappointing.

Unaware of the change in Uchiha Taro's expression, Fugaku spoke up and shared his thoughts.

"Father, how could you have such a thought?"

He really didn't understand.

Leaving aside the fact that he single-handedly terrified his enemies and forced other villages to issue orders like "If you encounter Sakumo Hatake, you can unconditionally abandon your mission."

Orochimaru, who was bestowed the title of one of the Three Legendary Sannin by the demigod "Hanzo the Salamander" during the Second Shinobi World War, was already renowned throughout the shinobi world.

The two were incredibly popular in Konoha.

In comparison, he is no match for Uchiha Yuzuru in terms of either prestige or strength.

Seeing Fugaku Uchiha's puzzled expression, Taro Uchiha explained, "I certainly didn't mean for you to compete with Sakumo Hatake and Orochimaru. I have that much self-awareness."

Upon hearing this, Fugaku Uchiha became even more confused: "Then what do you mean?"

"Although Orochimaru and Sakumo Hatake are both impeccable in terms of reputation and strength, they have a fatal flaw."

Uchiha Taro glanced at the two of them and said in a deep voice, "Age!"

Uchiha Taro took a sip of tea and said confidently, "The Third Hokage is currently in good health, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, he will likely remain in power for a long time."

"Under these circumstances, by the time the Third Hokage abdicates, both Orochimaru and Sakumo Hatake will probably no longer be young."

"At that time, the Hokage will most likely be chosen from among the best of the new generation."

"And this... is your chance!"

After listening to Uchiha Taro's explanation, Uchiha Fugaku suddenly understood.

On closer inspection, this is very likely!
