This Uchiha is a Little Different | Naruto

"Ding dong, congratulations to the host, the Family Honor System has been activated."

As a strange voice echoed in his head, Kazuki, who had been sleeping, jolted awake.

"Who, who is talking to me?"

But when he looked in the mirror, his mind went blank.

The face in the mirror was completely unfamiliar, dressed in bizarre clothing and wearing a headband...

"Knock knock knock." There was a knock at the door.

A voice called out from outside, "Kazuki, in half an hour, the clan leader will hold a meeting for all clan ninjas in the family conference room. Remember not to be late."

Kazuki was bewildered. What clan leader? What ninjas? Where exactly was he?

As he pondered, a list appeared in his mind.

"Name: Uchiha Kazuki."

"Age: 20 years."

"Clan: Uchiha Clan."

"Bloodline Limit: Sharingan."

"Combat Power Index: 30 (normal adults are 10)."

"Clan Prosperity: 45."

Note: When clan prosperity reaches 0, the Uchiha Clan will be destroyed, and the host will die.

Had he crossed over into the ninja world?

Crossing into the ninja world was one thing, but why was he bound to the Uchiha Clan?

This was bad; given the tendencies of these red-eyed freaks, even if he wasn't wiped out by the higher-ups of Konoha, he might end up getting himself killed.

However, this world didn't offer many explanations.

Now, he had become one of these red-eyed freaks, well, still a reserve freak without awakened red-eye skills.

"Congratulations, host, you've activated the beginner's gift pack and obtained the passive skill: Invincible Defense within the Clan."

PS: Within the clan, both physical attacks and chakra attacks are ineffective against the host.

"System, why is it invincible defense? And it's limited to within the clan; isn't that just a big sandbag skill?" Kazuki protested.

But the system ignored him.

After futilely shouting for a while, Kazuki gave up.

Since he was here, he might as well settle in.

For the sake of his own life, he should plan to develop the Uchiha Clan well.

"Wherever Konoha flourishes, the fire continues to thrive. The flames will keep illuminating the village and help the new leaves sprout..."

Kazuki arrived at the clan's conference room, where Clan Leader Uchiha Fugaku was already proclaiming the Will of Fire.

The Will of Fire itself was not wrong; it was a positive and uplifting message.

However, in the ninja world, given the low productivity, could the Will of Fire really be implemented? Kazuki had a big question mark in his mind.

On one hand, war created a large number of lonely old and young people. Due to heavy casualties among ninjas, even child ninjas began to enter the battlefield, participating in brutal fighting.

On the other hand, ninjas were used as tools, and the higher-ups of ninja villages did not want them to have independent thoughts.

Wasn't this contrary to the Will of Fire?

So, from Kazuki's modern perspective, the so-called Will of Fire was merely a tool for the higher-ups of the ninja village to brainwash people.

To fool passionate young men into sacrificing for the village was one thing; if someone took it seriously, they would be truly foolish.

Clearly, within the Uchiha Clan, the market for the Will of Fire was small.

How could ordinary people and ninjas coexist equally?

Treating low-ranking and high-ranking ninjas the same? That was a joke.

Letting the Will of Fire permeate the entire Uchiha Clan? Don't be ridiculous; proud Uchiha clan members could never interact with ordinary people as equals.

Seeing the expressions of his clan members, Uchiha Fugaku knew his attempts had failed again.

He had worked hard to try to integrate the Uchiha Clan into the village, but sadly...

At that moment, Kazuki didn't know if it was a moment of inspiration or something else, but he suddenly stood up and said, "Clan Leader, I have a question I'd like to ask you."

"Oh, it's Kazuki. What's the matter?"

Fugaku was surprised that Kazuki dared to ask a question at the clan meeting. He didn't care much for this Uchiha shame with a combat power of only 30.

"Clan Leader, I want to ask, which came first, the Uchiha Clan or Konoha?"

"Of course, the Uchiha Clan came first. Kazuki, you must know that Konoha was jointly founded by the Senju Clan and our Uchiha Clan."

The answer came from an elder in the clan. Clearly, Fugaku couldn't be bothered to respond to such a simple question.

"Clan Leader, I'd like to ask another question. If an extreme situation arose where we had to sacrifice the entire Uchiha Clan to save Konoha, what would you choose at that time?"

"Kazuki, what are you trying to say?" Fugaku's expression was becoming unfavorable.

This was a loaded question. If he answered that he would sacrifice the Uchiha Clan to save Konoha, surely the Uchiha members present would be outraged.

Conversely, if Fugaku chose to save the Uchiha Clan at the expense of Konoha, then his earlier proclamation of the Will of Fire would become a complete joke.

Fugaku fell silent, not directly answering Kazuki's question. Some clan members began to whisper among themselves after hearing Kazuki's question.

"Enough, Kazuki, how dare you speak to the clan leader like that?" A staunch elder of Fugaku stepped forward to reprimand Kazuki.

"I am implementing the Clan Leader's Will of Fire. What's wrong with that?"

"You, you!" The elder stammered, pointing a trembling finger at Kazuki.

"Alright, Kazuki, we'll discuss your questions later. Let's get back to the meeting now," Fugaku used his authority as clan leader to terminate the questioning.

"You are the leader, so you have the final say. I will follow your lead."

"Ding dong, the host's question has sparked the curiosity of some clan members, Clan Prosperity +5 points."

Kazuki felt a rush of joy; he had merely spoken from the heart, not expecting this extra benefit.

The meeting soon concluded, discussing the allocation of the clan budget.

Due to the peace period, ninjas didn't have many tasks to take on, and given the characteristics of the Uchiha Clan, many ninjas from other villages, including their own, coveted their Sharingan. Therefore, it was unrealistic for the Uchiha Clan to take on many outside missions.

Although the Uchiha Clan had built up considerable wealth over the years, Fugaku was still reluctant to see them live off their past gains.

As a result, each ninja's salary was reduced this year.

Hearing that his meager salary had been cut again, Kazuki could only shake his head helplessly.

However, no matter how poor ninjas were, they still lived much better than ordinary people.

The clan not only had to support ninjas but also many ordinary citizens.

"Why am I so unlucky to be part of the Uchiha Clan?" After the meeting, Kazuki complained again about how unfair fate had been to him.
