Chapter 154 : The boiling Uchiha!

As soon as Kazuhiko finished speaking, the elders of the Uchiha clan were buzzing with excitement.

"Excellent, he agreed!"

"This is thrilling! I must witness this competition! No one can stop me!"

"The Uchiha clan hasn't experienced such excitement in years; I'm really looking forward to it!"

"I feel like my blood is boiling, and I'm excited too!"

At this moment, the Uchiha did not harbor the bitterness and hatred of later generations; they carried themselves with a composed demeanor throughout the day.

Though currently facing challenges from Konoha, they hadn't endured the pain of the Second and Third Great Ninja Wars, making them more humane in their perspective.

Observing the enthusiastic elders, it was evident that the present Uchiha weren't burdened by the same heaviness.

Kazuhiko glanced at Uchiha Ryūshō. "Now?"

"Now!"

Uchiha Ryūshō, responding affirmatively, was equally eager.

It had been a long time since he had engaged in a challenge, and he was curious about the extent of his current strength.

"Where are we going?" Kazuhiko asked Uchiha Ryūshō.

"Let's head to the back mountain of the Uchiha compound; there's no one there. I'll lead the way."

"Let's go!"

Kazuhiko and Uchiha Ryūshō simultaneously exited the hut.

In the blink of an eye, they leaped straight up, with Uchiha Ryūshō leading the way and Kazuhiko following.

The other elders promptly followed, unwilling to be left behind.

"Hurry, I'm coming too."

"Make sure to keep up, Fourth Elder, don't push me..."

"Second Elder, quick, organize yourselves, don't let other clan members follow..."

"Elder, why don't you go alone? I want to witness the showdown as well..."

"Damn it... Second Elder, you never follow orders... well... I don't care..."

Having said that, the first elder also quickly followed, indifferent to the commands, and the others followed suit.

"Move!"

"Shu," "Shu," "Shu," "Shu," "Shu," "Shu"...

Figures soared in the Uchiha courtyard, closely trailing the clan head and Kazuhiko.

Thus, the Uchiha clan members witnessed such a scene.

The elders of the clan all hurried to the back of the mountain, leaping onto the Uchiha compound's rooftops one by one.

Swiftly traversing the roofs, one by one assumed there was an emergency, but upon looking up, they recognized their own elders.

"What's going on?"

Seeing this lively scene, the Uchiha members immediately began to inquire.

However, the elders paid no attention to them whatsoever.

Someone caught the last Kurogane.

Kurogane found it impossible to catch up with the elders, so he reluctantly emerged from hiding. Frustrated, he was on the verge of leaving when someone grabbed him.

"Kurogane, what's going on? Why are the elders rushing towards the back of the mountain?"

Kurogane attempted to break free twice but was unsuccessful. He glanced at the people heading farther away, then turned to those looking at him with curiosity.

Ignoring the details, he decided to play a quick game, "Let go of me! The Uzumaki leader and our leader are heading to the back mountain for a test!"

With that, Kurogane pulled at the collar of the shirt that had snagged.

"What!? Really?" Onlookers widened their eyes and wanted to inquire further.

"Laugh…"

Anxiously, Kurogane looked at the elders disappearing into the distance. With a resolute heart, he tore off the front of his shirt.

"Indeed!"

"Sharingan, activate!"

After saying this, Uchiha opened his eyes and followed the elders.

"Shh!" He disappeared in an instant.

Clan members exchanged glances, sensing excitement and eagerness in everyone's eyes.

"Go! Let's catch up!"

"Come on, Uchiha hasn't been this lively in decades, let's go!"

"Sharingan, activate! 35"

"Go, I've activated my eyes, I see them, let's go!"

"Shuh" "Shuh" "Shuh" "Shuh"

As soon as they left, the clansmen who heard the news rushed to the scene...

"Hey, hey, where are you going? What's happening?!"

They only had time to shout.

"The clan leader and Kazuhiko are fighting in the back mountain!"

"Go and witness the spectacle!"

A portly man turned his head and shouted loudly, and the entire Uchiha compound heard this sentence.

The sentence hit like a boulder dropped into a lake...

"Boom!

"I'm going too!"

"Let's catch up, let's catch up!"

"Sharingan, activate! Come on, I see them!"

"Shuh" "Shuh" "Shuh" "Shuh"

A familiar scene replayed...

"Is it the one who defeated the Third Hokage, Kazuhiko?"

"Absolutely!"

"Kurogane, please cover my patrol tonight!"

"I won't, I'm not going. I'm heading to watch the competition!"

"Shinji, I need you to..."

"No way, I'm going too!"

"Leave him be!"

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence!"

"I haven't seen something like this in ages... Don't miss out!

"That's right, just return and face the consequences... let's go!

"Shu" "Shu" "Shu" "Shu" "Shu"

In an instant, the previously composed Uchiha was stirred like boiling water, and the entire Uchiha clan became restless.

Uchiha individuals, whether preparing to rest, on night duty, or patrolling, all leaped to their feet.

Even the Anbu ninja, who observed the Uchiha clan from a distance, noticed the commotion among them.

"What's happening?"

"I heard there's a duel between Uzumaki and Uchiha, and everyone is going to watch."

"Hurry, report to Hokage-sama!"

"Take this news to Elder Danzo!"

"We've been following discreetly.
