Chapter 178: Attending the Clan Meeting, Setsuna
Uchiha Jin looked miserable.
As a nominal Uchiha who didn't even know anyone in the clan, why make him attend some clan meeting!
But, whatever.
Although he was extremely unwilling in his heart, who told him to be someone who had eaten their food and thus felt obligated?
Nine o'clock at night.
The Naka River shimmered with waves, the brilliant moonlight spilling down like sparkling fish scales.
Reflected against the vast forest surrounding it, it exuded an extreme sense of beauty.
This place was near the edge of the Forest of Death and was also the most important clan land of the Uchiha.
The Naka Shrine.
Perhaps it was only a small shrine, but the protection around it could be called an inescapable net.
Even though Uchiha Jin hadn't activated his Sharingan, under the shroud of his Observation Haki, those waves of chakra and even the fluctuations of breathing could not escape his detection.
Five Jonin, over thirty Chunin.
And nearly one hundred Genin!
Perhaps it was a bit fewer than the Hyuga's guards, but it wasn't that the Uchiha were incompetent; it was that the Uchiha were too arrogant.
They simply didn't believe that anyone would dare to come to the Uchiha and run wild.
"Hmm, what beautiful scenery."
"If this weren't the dark Naruto world, this place would definitely have to be protected as a scenic spot."
"Once I truly reach the pinnacle by lying low, I will definitely fence this place off and retire here properly."
Uchiha Jin sighed with emotion.
And just as he was walking while admiring the beautiful scenery here.
Although he had transmigrated to this world for a long time, this was his first time coming to the Naka Shrine.
In the past.
His status was too low; he had no qualifications to come here at all.
And, at this very moment.
An Uchiha suddenly appeared.
Well, he could be considered an acquaintance.
It was precisely Uchiha Tekka, whom he had met briefly just a moment ago.
"Elder Jin, everyone else has arrived."
Tekka looked displeased, but considering Jin's status, he could only bow and salute: "I hope you can hurry; don't keep the other elders and the Clan Head waiting."
Uchiha Jin was slightly taken aback.
But he nodded anyway, and then, led by Tekka, he walked straight into the main hall of the Naka Shrine.
At the head was a ferocious-looking statue, and below it in the center was a cushion where Uchiha Fugaku was kneeling.
On the left and right sides, many cushions were laid out.
Most were already filled with people, and as Uchiha Jin appeared, everyone naturally cast their gazes toward him.
Curiosity, surprise, doubt, questioning, disdain, admiration...
All sorts of expressions, too many to list.
"Hmm, Jin is here." ===== CHAPTER 179 =====
