"Actually, you're doing quite well, there's no need for me to take over."
"But since you've said so much, it wouldn't be right for me not to accept."
"So, fine, I'll take this position."
"However, some unpleasant truths still need to be stated upfront. Since you're asking me to take over as Police Chief, then it must be done according to my rules."
"Because of the tense relationship between the Uchiha and the village, and to prevent the village from detecting my intentions prematurely."
"So, even if you don't understand some things, you must still do as I say."
"Even if you don't understand, you must obey my orders!"
"If the Clan Head agrees, then I have no problem."
Chapter 83: Clan Meeting Ends, Itachi's Arrival
Uchiha Jin's tone was grim.
Yes.
Although he was a homebody who liked to lie flat and hated trouble, since he couldn't refuse, he had to ensure absolute authority.
They want him to be responsible, but they don't want to listen?
Heh heh!
If anyone dared to do that, they shouldn't blame him for being ruthless!
He had already stated the unpleasant truths upfront, so now he had legal justification for his actions.
"Mm, I agree." Fugaku nodded, his tone solemn: "I'll be the first to state my position; I absolutely trust Jin-kun."
"And Jin-kun's considerations are very accurate. We Uchiha are being watched very closely by the village."
"If we explain everything to everyone, then it's equivalent to the village knowing as well."
"So, everyone, remember this."
"From now on, in the Police Force, as long as it's Jin-kun's order, whether you understand it or not, you must accept and execute it!"
"Otherwise, I, Fugaku, will never let it slide!"
Inside Nanga Shrine, everyone's brows furrowed slightly.
They were a bit resistant.
Because Uchiha Jin was practically saying that he didn't trust them.
This was definitely an insult to them.
But, they had to admit.
Uchiha Jin's considerations were very accurate, especially regarding the Police Force, which directly faced the village and its residents.
Being cautious was not a problem.
"I accept!"
"I have no problem either, Elder Jin's considerations are correct."
"It should have been like this long ago!"
"Our Uchiha's management was a bit too lax in the past."
"Isn't that the truth? The content of the clan meeting on the first day was known by the Hokage that very night."
"..."
Everyone present spoke up.
Everyone expressed their acceptance of Uchiha Jin and Fugaku's demands.
Subsequently.
After confirming this matter, they began to discuss the issue of Uchiha industries.
Finally, half an hour later.
This clan meeting finally concluded... The next day, 7 AM.
Today, Uchiha Jin had woken up and washed early.
No choice.
Who made him have a disciple like Itachi?
He had delayed him for a whole day yesterday, so he had to get up early today.
Since he had taken him as a disciple, he had to be responsible.
But, unfortunately.
Although he felt he had woken up early enough, when he opened the courtyard gate and saw Itachi already training, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.
Good heavens!
This child was too diligent, wasn't he?
Rubbing his forehead with a headache, he spoke with a hint of helplessness.
"Itachi, you're still a child."
"For a child, ensuring sufficient sleep is the most important thing."
"Because you are in a period of growth, and only during deep sleep will your body begin to detoxify on one hand, and convert the food you ate during the day into the nutrients your body needs on the other."
"You should have noticed that when you get enough sleep, you wake up feeling refreshed the next day, and conversely, you feel tired and dizzy, right?"
"How others think, I can't control and don't bother to control."
"But as my disciple, I must be responsible for you."
"Don't think this is diligence; in my opinion, this is exploiting and overdrawing your future."
"Perhaps you feel you're getting stronger every day now, but only when you truly reach adulthood will you realize that once you encounter a bottleneck, you will make no further progress!"
"If you want to go far enough in the future, you must understand that your main task now is not training."
"But to nourish your body and spirit..."
"Only with a solid foundation can you go further in your future."
"Pulling up seedlings to help them grow, that is the act of a fool!"
Uchiha Jin's tone was stern.
Yes.
He truly looked down on Uchiha Itachi's behavior.
In the original story, he seemed powerful, but he always appeared weak. Although his Mangekyo abilities were formidable, his ocular power was exhausted in a short time.
The fundamental reason lay here.
Moreover, the Shinobi World here is different from a normal world because of the arrival of the Otsutsuki Clan, which led to the sudden appearance of Chakra.
Simply put.
They learned to run before they even learned to walk.
This led to the people of the Shinobi World not understanding what a foundation was at all.
They were all just exploiting!
Especially Might Dai and his son.
Although they seemed incredibly powerful in the original show, their unrestricted exploitation of their bodies led to their strength being only a fleeting moment.
He didn't care about others.
But as a soul from China, Uchiha Jin had an extraordinary understanding of the word 'master'.
Once a teacher, a father for life.
This was not just talk!
Since he had taken Uchiha Itachi as his disciple, he had to be responsible for him.
Uchiha Itachi's brows furrowed slightly.
To be honest.
He didn't actually agree with Jin's words.
But Uchiha Jin was his teacher after all, so he still nodded slightly.
"Okay, Teacher." Uchiha Itachi slowly said: "I will pay attention to it from now on."
