"I have met Mr. Fugaku." Uchiha Makoto saluted respectfully.
"Sit down." Uchiha Fugaku pointed to the cushion in front of him.
"Yes." Uchiha Makoto came and knelt down in front of Uchiha Fugaku.
Uchiha Fugaku looked relaxed and said: "I heard that you were very active in this battle and fought bravely, which is very good."
"It's all for the glory of the clan." Uchiha Makoto gave the standard answer without being too humble.
After all, he had calculated by himself that with this battle achievement and the accumulation of previous missions, it would be no problem to be promoted to Jonin.
Dozens of ninjas from Sand Ninja Village died directly or indirectly in his hands, otherwise he would not have been able to accumulate thousands of gold coins and more than a dozen pieces of basic equipment.
Especially in the last mission to lure the enemy, he was considered a great survivor as a survivor. After all, only 27 people in the team of more than 500 people survived.
"You should be promoted soon, and the village will reward you, but the clan will not treat its heroes badly. This is a ninjutsu scroll. Choose what you need."
Uchiha Fugaku showed approval, and then took out eight ninjutsu scrolls.
"Thank you, Fugaku-sama." Uchiha Makoto's eyes lit up. He preferred something more practical than false talk.
There are markings on the outside of the scrolls. Six of the eight scrolls are fire escape ninjutsu and two are wind escape ninjutsu. Apparently Uchiha Fugaku had also prepared in advance and knew that he had chakra with two attributes: wind and fire.
Although ninjas can use all escape techniques through acquired training, the attributes they possess innately make it much easier to practice and use ninjutsu, and their power will also be improved.
Uchiha Makoto checked them one by one and found that the six Fire Release Ninjutsu scrolls were all B-level Ninjutsu, and the two Wind Release Ninjutsu were also very practical C-level Ninjutsu. He had to sigh at Uchiha Fugaku's generosity.
His father was a special jounin during his lifetime. He was good at swordsmanship and had relatively few other ninjutsu scrolls. He obviously had A-level wind release and vacuum sword, but Uchiha only had two C-level fire releases that he was good at.
"I choose these." Uchiha Makoto chose four scrolls, two fire and two wind.
"Yes." Uchiha Fugaku nodded and put away the remaining four scrolls. "If you don't understand anything, you can ask the ninja for advice in the clan school."
Big families usually have family studies. Not all children of big families go to ninja schools. Family studies are like advanced classes and will teach students more advanced content.
Although Uchiha's clan studies are mainly for students and genin, the lecturers are all jounin, so the chunin in the clan often attend classes and learn. Occasionally, if they don't understand something, they can also ask the jounin who lectures. Please tell me, after all, there are jounins with good tempers in the Uchiha clan.
"Yes!" Uchiha Makoto nodded, he would do this even if Uchiha Fugaku didn't say anything.
After becoming a genin, he mainly studied under the guidance of the jounin, but as long as he had time, he would often go to the clan academy.
After all, there are free jonins in the clan who take turns giving lectures, and there are also several jounin who are good at wind style, fire style and swordsmanship.
In addition, jonins often teach the precautions and methods of using the Sharingan after it is opened. Uchiha Makoto has naturally listened to it several times, otherwise he would not have been able to use it so smoothly within half a month after opening the eye.
After Uchiha Makoto put away the scroll, Uchiha Fugaku continued: "Then I have a few things to tell you."
"Yes." Uchiha Makoto sat upright.
"I'm very pleased that you have another comrade who opened your Sharingan Eyes. Although opening your eyes at the age of 14 is relatively late in the family's records, it is rare for you to have double magatama eyes. Very rare.
When you become proficient in using the Sharingan and continue to develop it, you will know the power of the Sharingan. I hope you can continue to fight for the glory of the clan. "
Uchiha Fugaku encouraged Uchiha Makoto a few words, and then looked serious.
"Yes!" Uchiha Makoto replied respectfully.
"From now on, you are eligible to participate in the clan's gathering, and the venue is Nanga Shrine." Uchiha Fugaku continued: "The rest is related to the war.
Although the village has won the war with the Sand Ninja, it has suffered heavy losses in multi-front battles and is in short supply of high-end combat power.
If you are promoted at the age of 14, you will receive the attention and focus of training from the village. "
Does the village take it seriously?
Uchiha Makoto frowned when he heard that the village took this seriously. This was not a good thing.
If the current Hokage were the fourth generation, Uchiha Makoto would be happy to see him valued, but now the third generation has not abdicated in favor of others. Danzo, the old silver coin in the Hokage's advisor, is targeting Uchiha in various ways. What good can be done by being valued by them.
"According to convention, ordinary ninjas like you have the opportunity to be transferred to ANBU for training, but the Uchiha clan is an exception. You should be transferred to special forces or sent to other battlefields.
Regarding this, the village will respect your wishes to a certain extent, and you will have some choice.
I hope you don’t choose Kirigakure battlefield.
Although in terms of combat power, Kumogakure and Iwagakure are stronger, Kirigakure Village is relatively weak.
However, Water Release itself restrains Fire Release, and the Kirigakure Technique in Kirigakure Village will greatly affect the field of vision. The Sharingan, which the Uchiha clan relies on the most, will not have much effect.
Your Sharingan has just opened, and going to the Kirigakure battlefield is the worst choice for you.
The Uchiha clan sent 45 ninjas to participate in the Battle of Mount Kikyo, including 6 jounin, 2 seriously injured, and 4 slightly injured; 39 chunin, 22 killed, 5 seriously injured, and 10 slightly injured;
But compared to the clan members participating in the Kirigakure battlefield, this loss is nothing.
A total of 192 people went to the Kirigakure battlefield, including 15 Jonin. Currently, 4 people were killed, 5 were seriously injured, and 2 were slightly injured; 167 Chunin, 35 were killed.
However, the Uchiha clan suffered such heavy casualties on the Kirigakure battlefield but did not make many military exploits, which dealt a blow to the Uchiha clan's prestige.
Uchiha Shisui's situation is just an example. "
Uchiha Fugaku's face darkened slightly, looking a little aggrieved.
"Water defeats fire, and Kirigakure's art restrains the Sharingan. Obviously it is best to send ninjas from the Hyuga clan to the Kirigakure battlefield." Although Uchiha Makoto knew what was going on, he still asked questions knowingly.
The jounin of the Uchiha clan basically all have the Sharingan activated. The second magatama sharingan has a very obvious increase in strength. The third magatama is definitely the elite among the jounin.
Four of the 15 jounin died at once. This loss was indeed heavy.
After all, the jounin of the Uchiha clan are not the kind of jounin who are promoted based on seniority and mission experience. Most of them have outstanding combat capabilities, and they are relatively young and have great potential.
It is really frustrating to die in battle without having accomplished any great feats.
"This is a high-level decision. We can only obey orders, but sooner or later this situation must be changed." Uchiha Fugaku had anger in his eyes, but he quickly calmed down, "That's what I want to say, while Let’s take a good rest during this time, we don’t know when the war will end.”
"Thank you, Lord Fugaku, for reminding you. In that case, I won't bother you any more." Uchiha Makoto saluted respectfully.
"Yes." Uchiha Fugaku nodded.
...
After leaving Uchiha Fugaku's mansion, Uchiha Makoto walked out of the clan and went directly to the Hokage's office.
Contrary to Uchiha Makoto's expectation, things went extremely smoothly.
In less than ten minutes, he received a ninja mail and walked out of the Hokage building.
After consulting his intentions, the Third Hokage did not directly decide his whereabouts. Instead, he asked him to go back and have a good rest and would not arrange for him to go to the battlefield in the short term.
"Jounin? I didn't expect that in less than a year, I would become an elite?" Uchiha Makoto looked at the jounin standard mail armor in his hand and laughed at himself.
