The territory of the Yuhi clan

"Patriarch, the support of the Hagoromo clan has arrived!"

A ninja from the Yuhi clan suddenly entered the meeting room and knelt down to report.

Patriarch Yuhi immediately opened his eyes, a joyful look on his face, "Oh, who are here to support?"

The ninja kneeling on one knee said, "One of the higher-ups of the Hagoromo clan and the young patriarch of the Hagoromo clan."

Only the most elite Jonin are allowed to participate in the Hagoromo clan meetings, the ninja who participate in the meetings are called the clan's higher-ups.

There are two types of Elite Jounin, the normal Elite Jounin and the superior Elite Jounin, an example of this can be the future Asuma and Kakashi, where both were Elite Jounins, but Kakashi was superior to Asuma.

There are six members of the Hagoromo clan who are elite upper Jounin, in addition to the patriarch and the two elders, a total of nine people make up the upper echelons of the Hagoromo clan.

As for Shigeru, although his strength has not reached the level of a top elite jounin, due to his strength and achievements, everyone has agreed to let him join the clan's higher-ups.

Therefore, there are currently ten participants in the Hagoromo Clan meetings.

Of course, originally this number should have been higher.

It is a pity that in the battle over a year ago, almost half of the Hagoromo clan's elite jonin were lost, leading to the current situation.

Hearing that a member of the Hagoromo clan's higher-ups and the young patriarch of the Hagoromo clan had arrived, the patriarch of the Yuhi clan immediately stood up, "Come on, everyone, follow me to greet the ninjas of the Hagoromo clan."

The people from the Hagoromo clan who came to support were high-ranking officials, this was something he expected, but the fact that the young patriarch of the Hagorom clan came was a bit beyond his expectations.

It seems that the Hagoromo clan still attaches great importance to the Yuhi clan becoming a vassal.

But on second thought, the Hagoromo clan suffered heavy losses in the battle a year ago, and now they urgently need to regain their strength.

With these thoughts in mind, the leader of the Yuhi clan left the meeting room, and other Yuhi ninjas followed him with joy on their faces.

Great, the support of the Hagoromo clan has arrived, and the Yuhi clan no longer has to die.

…

After breaking through the Yuhi Clan's defense line, before reaching the Yuhi Clan's land gate, Shigeru and the others saw several people standing outside the Yuhi Clan's land gate.

The patriarch of the Yuhi clan hurriedly stepped forward, "Thank you to the entire Hagoromo clan for helping our Yuhi clan, once this battle is over, we the Yuhi clan will fulfill our promise and become a vassal clan to the Hagoromo clan."

After hearing this, the people behind the Yuhi Clan Leader felt quite unhappy.

After all, who would want to become a vassal clan of another clan?

But there is no way, the ninja world is so cruel, they are weak, they are destined to try their best to survive in a humble way.

Tohō nodded upon seeing this. "Don't worry, since you have promised to become the vassal clan of our Hagoromo clan, then we will definitely do our best to help you."

Shigeru, who was standing next to him, did not speak, but nodded slightly.

He glanced at the strength of the people on the opposite side.

The first is the leader of the Yuhi clan. According to Shigeru's perception, the opponent's strength should also be that of an elite jounin, but he may be weaker than Hagoromo Tohō.

But the Yuhi clan is an expert in genjutsu. Genjutsu are very complicated and you can fall victim to them at any time.

The patriarch of the Yuhi clan is definitely very skilled in genjutsu.

Therefore, if Tohō and the Yuhi clan patriarch really fight, the outcome will be uncertain.

Then there are the five people behind the patriarch of the Yuhi clan. According to perception, they are all elite jounin. Their strength should be equal to that of the three elite jounin of the Hagoromo clan brought by Shigeru.

These are the high-level combat capabilities of the Yuhi clan.

I have to say that the gap between this small clan and the big clans is really big.

Even if the Hagoromo clan suffers heavy losses, in the absence of war, they can still mobilize three elite jounin without any pressure, and the five elite jounin of the Yuhi clan are their entire high-level combat force.

The gap in strength between small and large clans is evident.

After the Yuhi Clan Patriarch looked at Shigeru's movements, he looked at him with a smile on his face, "This is the young patriarch of the Hagoromo Clan, Shigeru, isn't he? His talent is extraordinary, he will definitely become the strongest man in the ninja world one day!"

When Shigeru saw that the other person was so kind and flattered him, he immediately laughed, "Patriarch Yuhi is praising me too much. Who can say what will happen in the future?"

"Young Patriarch Hagoromo, you have reached this level of strength at such a young age, and your future will definitely be limitless."

The words of the Yuhi clan patriarch were not just a compliment, he also admired Shigeru in his heart.

After all, Shigeru's strength was dazzling on the battlefield a year ago. After that, he made a surprise attack on the Sarutobi and Shimura clans and his reputation spread throughout the Fire Country.

Such a genius, as long as he does not die young, is destined to become a top-tier powerhouse in the future.

So this is not an empty compliment.

At the compliments from the Yuhi clan patriarch, Shigeru smiled, "Let's go in first."

"Yes, yes!"

The patriarch of the Yuhi clan nodded quickly and at the same time turned to invite Shigeru, Tohō and the others to enter.

The five elite jounin behind the Yuhi Clan Patriarch also wisely moved away from the door.

Soon, the Yuhi clan arranged accommodation for the Hagoromo ninja who came to provide support.

At night, the Tsuruta clan did not make any surprise attacks. Perhaps because it was nighttime they did not risk attacking, or perhaps because they wanted to replenish their forces for the next day's attack.

Still, the first night Shigeru and the others arrived at the Yuhi clan passed peacefully.

The next day, the sun rose as usual.

Sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves, forming rays of light one after another.

In order to prevent the Tsuruta clan from breaking through the Yuhi clan's defense line, the Yuhi clan patriarch led his clan members to the front of the defense line early, Shigeru and the others who came to provide support were naturally among them.

Boom…

At around nine o'clock, an explosion was suddenly heard in the forest, and then the frontline troops of the Tsuruta clan arrived to attack.

Hidden in the forest, the ninjas of the Yuhi and Tsuruta clans sometimes died under various traps before even facing each other.

Although Shigeru, who was standing at the front of the defense line, could not see anyone, through perception, he could also detect the Tsuruta ninjas who were constantly moving in front of him.
