Chapter 46 Visitors

It was another morning in Toshiro's living room.

"Please sit down!"

A rare visitor came to Toshiro's house today. He is a guard member in his early 20s, slightly taller than an average Uchiha. She has medium-long hair, hanging down her head. The face is slightly old-fashioned, with two long nasolabial folds. The whole person gives people a serious, old-fashioned and meticulous feeling.

Yes, this man was Uchiha Fugaku who would later give birth to the 'Great Son' and 'Optimus Prime'. He is not the leader of the Uchiha clan yet. Although he is the biological son of the current Uchiha clan leader, his strength is generally recognized by the family. But with his butterfly wings, who can predict the future?

"It's really rude, because I rarely have visitors at home, so I'm not prepared!"

"Tea please!"

As he spoke, Toshiro quickly brought out a tray. Top with two cups of freshly brewed green tea. He handed one of the cups of green tea to Fugaku, and he picked up another cup himself, sat on the opposite side of the coffee table, and looked at him quietly.

He was confused about Uchiha Fugaku visiting his home today. I don't understand why I, a kid who hasn't become a ninja, have anything to worry about.

As far as he knew, the 'future clan leader' who had high hopes from the current clan leader was quite busy. Not only does he hold important positions in the security force, but he also often takes on various difficult tasks assigned by the Hokage.

There are also connections with all branches of the family.

The village, family, and security forces all took good care of him, and he acted like a young patriarch. As the old saying goes, when a night owl comes into the house, he or she comes for anything. I hope the news isn't bad.

[The etiquette is very thoughtful when receiving guests! 】

[No ordinary child will panic when faced with the elders of the clan, he is very mature and calm! 】

[Coupled with his unremitting efforts over the years, his character is also determined! 】

Since entering the door, Uchiha Fugaku has not said a word. He just quietly observed Toshiro's every move. See how he treats others and how he responds to his sudden visit.

After just a few minutes of observation, combined with some information collected from the clan, he could basically make a judgment. The young man in front of him is a good ninja prospect and will be the pillar of the family in the future.

"I don't know why Fugaku-senpai is here today. If there is anything I can do, please feel free to ask!"

There was no silence for long.

As the master of the family, Toshiro was the first to speak. His attitude was very upright, as if he wanted to speak up if anything happened to his family. He must go all out to complete the family's mission, but the key is still the saying 'within one's ability'.

He is a boy less than eight years old. As a kid who is still in ninja school, I think the family probably has no plans against him. So he didn't have to beat around the bush and got straight to the point.

After hearing this, Uchiha Fugaku was not in a hurry to speak. Instead, he held the hot tea in his hand and blew on the hot air floating on the lip of the cup. He glanced at Toshiro lightly, and then spoke slowly.

"As a genius in the family, Toshiro, what do you think of the current situation in the ninja world?"

【What do you think? I see with my eyes! 】

He complained secretly. He didn't expect that Uchiha Fugaku had been thinking about it for so long and finally asked such a question. Is this a question you should ask a child?

"Fugaku-senpai really thinks too highly of me. How could an ordinary ninja school student like me know something like this?"

"But since senior asked a question, I will reluctantly say it!"

"The Ninja School has expanded its enrollment this year!"

Yes, the Ninja School has expanded its enrollment today. Unlike Toshiro who enrolled at the age of six, this year's Ninja School not only has six-year-olds, but also some five-year-olds enrolling early.

Just like Uchiha Obito, who is of the same clan as him, he entered school as a low-ranking student. Also the son of ‘Konoha White Fang’ who committed suicide a month ago, Hatake Kakashi. The exact age when he entered school was just five years old!

After hearing this, Uchiha Fugaku who asked the question was a little surprised. He asked this question casually, without even thinking about what reliable answer the boy opposite would give.

[I didn’t expect this kid to observe things in such detail and see things from a different perspective than adults like them. 】

"He is indeed a rare genius in the family!"

"Senior Fugaku is too polite. He is a genius or something... I just work harder than ordinary people!"

It is not easy to be a genius in the world of Naruto. Whether it is Minato Namikaze or Itachi Uchiha, or even Kakashi Hatake later, they all have the reputation of being geniuses, but the end of each one is not good!

There is a saying that the higher you praise someone, the harder you will fall. If you talk about being a genius, we don’t even know what you want to do. modesty! modesty!

"Since Toshiro is not as ignorant as ordinary children, I will tell you what I have to say!"

"Based on the intelligence collected by the family and various iron materials, medicinal materials, grain and other related materials related to the war. Now the prices are slowly increasing!"

This was also thanks to him and the Ninja Clan, the ideas he provided and the blood coagulation potion developed by Uchiha Mika. The family has been slightly sensitive to the prices of pharmaceutical ingredients recently. The sales of the Ninja Clan's sophisticated shurikens and kunai have soared. The price of raw materials has risen sharply recently, and the family has also received feedback.

"Some experienced elders of the family speculate that the major ninja villages may not be satisfied with some of the treaties and results of the last war. A war is likely to break out in the near future!"

Hearing this, Toshiro was not too surprised. After all, the third ninja war in the original work was the most brutal of all the ninja wars. Not to mention how long it took, the human losses were even more horrific.

Almost all the heads of major families have been changed.

Wait until Naga's younger sister Namikaze Minato takes over as the Fourth Hokage.

Representatives of major families attending the Hokage succession ceremony. Pigs, deer, butterflies, Uchiha, all are of the younger generation. Where are the current patriarchs? All consumed by the war!

While speaking, Uchiha Fugaku had been observing the changes in Toshiro's expression. What surprised him was that Toshiro's expression didn't change much when he heard the news that the war was about to break out.

What fluctuations can there be? For a message that knows the result in advance. He has been able to remain calm and composed.

As for pretending to be surprised. He figured it out a long time ago. It's too risky to play with micro-expressions in front of Uchiha Jonin.
