This battle between the Uchiha and Senju may be the one with the heaviest losses on both sides in history.

If the two clan leaders had not died together in the end, the war would probably have continued.

Uchiha Tajima is dead. Logically, Madara is the most qualified person to inherit the position of clan leader, but this is obviously not something that can be summarized in just a sentence or two.

Because there were still many people in the Uchiha clan who were dissatisfied. But despite everyone's doubts, Madara still took over as the clan leader.

While Haruka was conscientiously repairing the puppet, Izuna came running over excitedly carrying a package.

"Haruka, let's go...hiss!" After seeing the scene in the room clearly, Izuna took a breath.

Qinghe had one arm on the table, disassembled into pieces. She calmly used her other hand to assemble the parts.

"What's the principle behind this?" Izuna picked up a finger on the table and began to study it.

If you say this is a puppet without any perception, Qinghe is afraid of the sun and eats food.

But if she could feel anything, the way she dismantled it so casually didn't seem like she felt any pain.

Hearing Izuna's doubts, Haruka didn't know how to describe it to him. Anyway, it was a very complicated rule.

"Ah, it's almost like a necromancy." Qinghe explained.

When the consciousness is released, it is equivalent to occupying the body and being able to use it freely. When the consciousness is taken away, the body will turn back into a puppet.

"Hmm... I can't figure it out." Izuna returned the finger to Haruka.

He looked at the parts on the table and guessed, "Does that mean I don't feel anything now?"

“Actually, it was a bit painful when I took the arm off.” After it was taken off, it was fine.

"I see." Izuna nodded, not quite understanding.

After Qinghe repaired the parts, she reassembled the arm. She shook her hands, and the puppet's cold muscles were covered with flesh and blood again.

"So, what did Izuna come to see me for?"

"Today is the day of the gathering. This is the first time my brother has officially appeared as the clan leader. The two of us are going to support him."

As he spoke, Izuna opened the package in his hand, revealing a smaller set of dark blue tribal uniforms.

"Change it. Everyone has to wear tribal clothes to attend the gathering."

Qinghe picked up the tribal uniform and unfolded it to take a look. The fabric felt soft, different from the material of the one Izuna was wearing.

Izumi explained embarrassedly: "This kind of fabric should be similar to what you usually wear, but I didn't buy a lot when I was shopping, so I only made this set for now."

"If you still can't get used to this fabric, I'll try another one next time."

"Izuna is so nice~" Haruka praised out of habit.

She is actually not picky about fabrics, and the reason why she looks well dressed is because the clothes were all tailored by Inalin and others.

When Haru and Izuna arrived at the gathering place, it was already filled with Uchiha.

From the positions at the scene, it can be seen that there are roughly three factions: those who support the patriarch, those who support the great elder, and those who are neutral.

On the high platform, the first elder and the second elder were arguing, with several elders standing behind them, and the protagonist Madara seemed to have not arrived yet.

There was a sound of chains coming from far behind, and Madara, wearing the clan uniform, appeared with a large sickle and the Uchiha ancestral flame fan on his back.

"So you guys have been here first." Madara went to Haruka's yard and looked around, but didn't find anyone.

Izuna explained: "I thought my brother had already come."

It was because she thought it was about to begin that Izuna went to find Haruka alone.

"I went to my father and told him about my future plans."

Madara looked a little nervous, his expression was extremely tense, and his hair had grown a lot longer, covering part of his face, making him look particularly gloomy.

Izuna noticed Madara's nervousness, so she expressed her support: "Brother will definitely become an excellent clan leader!"

"Here, tie your hair up." Haruka took out a red hair tie from his pocket and handed it to Madara.

"When you take office, at least make sure others remember your face, Chief."

Although it is good for a leader to be dignified, he may easily lose the support of the people if he looks too aloof.

"...Okay, I will."

Madara took a deep breath, took the hair rope, gathered his hair behind his head and tied it into a small braid.

After revealing the face, the relaxation that was hidden was lost a little.

Madara walked towards the platform with a nervous and cold face: "I'm on it."

Haru and Izuna looked at each other. It was time for the excellent atmosphere team to come out and support the occasion.

"Lord Madara, you're finally here." Izuna shouted, raising her voice.

Qinghe echoed, "Everyone has been looking forward to this for a long time."

The Uchiha who were blocking the front heard the sound, looked back one after another, and then spontaneously made way in the middle.

"Lord Madara." The Uchiha on both sides greeted Madara.

No matter what they think in their hearts, you still have to give them enough respect on the surface.

Under the gaze of everyone, Madara's expression became more and more serious, and he walked up to the platform with firm steps.

Madara's arrival also separated the first elder and the second elder who were arguing on the platform.

The other elders tactfully left the stage, leaving only Ban, the first elder and the second elder on the stage.

"Master Spot."

The second elder was a supporter of the clan leader's faction. After she greeted Madara, she naturally stood behind him.

"Now that you're here, let's get started, Madara." The Great Elder was less respectful and more like a junior.

Although the second elder was somewhat dissatisfied with the first elder's attitude, he did not say much because the first elder did not cause any trouble.

Madara glanced at the great elder and walked to the front of the stage with a cold face. He looked at the huge crowd of Uchiha below the stage, and then looked at Izuna and Haruka at the back of the crowd.

He spoke slowly: "Remember my face. From now on, I, Uchiha Madara, will take over as the clan leader. Does anyone object?"

No one spoke at the scene, and it seemed that there were no opponents for the time being.

Madara calmly observed the expressions of the people in the audience before continuing, "For the next three months, the Uchiha will suspend all commissions related to the war."

After hearing this, discussions began to arise from the audience.

It was true that the Uchiha clan was badly wounded in the last war, but by using the strength of a single clan to fight against the alliance of the Senju clan and the Uzumaki clan, the Uchiha clan's reputation increased greatly.

I think in the next war, outsiders will be more willing to hire Uchiha. If we give up the commission during this period, wouldn't it be a waste of advantages and give all the benefits to the Senju?

The discussion in the audience had not yet stopped when the great elder on the stage began to attack Madara.

"Ban, is this the decision you made? You are being unreasonable!"

Ban made this decision after careful consideration.

He ignored the rebuke from the great elder and said to the Uchiha in the audience: "Most of the capable fighters are injured, yet they are still ambitious and continue to accept war commissions..."

He glanced coldly at the Uchiha who looked dissatisfied below the stage: "What? Are you planning to sacrifice all your fighting power to maintain your dignity and follow the old path of the Hagoromo clan?"

"Or should we send some healthy trash to the battlefield and embarrass the Uchiha?"

Faced with Madara's merciless words, everyone shut up, but the Great Elder still objected.

High risks are often accompanied by high returns. As the strongest Uchiha clan, they must take this opportunity to completely suppress the Senju.

So the Great Elder stood up and refuted Madara's words: "The war commission must be accepted. This is about the honor of Uchiha!"

"If we give up the commission and rest, will Qianshou do the same? Are you going to give up the advantage that your people have fought for with their blood?"

And according to the physique of Senju and Uzumaki, they will definitely recover faster than Uchiha. When they recover, the situation faced by Uchiha will be even more difficult.

"Ban, you are so weak and incompetent that you cannot be a good clan leader." The great elder warned Ban righteously.

There was discussion in the audience again, with half supporting Madara and the other half supporting the Great Elder.

The second elder also stood up. Just as she was about to refute the first elder, Ban blocked her with his hand.

Ban looked at the elder expressionlessly, motioning him to continue: "Oh? What else do you think, elder?"

The Great Elder was very satisfied with Madara's humble attitude and told him the information he had gathered.

"I heard that the Senju are planning to form a marriage with the Uzumaki clan to consolidate the alliance. We should also look for a new ally - the Kaguya clan."

Although the bloodline limit inheritance of the Kaguya clan is unstable, it is undeniable that as warmongers, their strength is still decent.

The second elder couldn't help but question, "The Hyuga clan and the Hyuga clan have always had a good relationship. Do you want the three clans to form an alliance?"

"Only the weak will huddle together for warmth. I think you are getting senile and confused." The second elder complained to the first elder.

"You are so short-sighted! All we need is a marriage. The one that the Tajima family just found is perfect."

"The Uchiha bloodline will remain pure, and the Hyuga clan's bloodline will not be passed down at all. In the end, we still have the initiative."

The first elder and the second elder started arguing on the stage again, and there was also a lot of discussion below the stage.

The chaotic scene was about to turn this rally into a farce.
