[Naruto] The big battle to transform the image of the patriarch

Uchiha, who is the most hated among Senshou Feijian these days, is estimated to change from Uchiha Quanna to Uchiha Mana.

Because in the meeting discussing the election procedures day and night these days, Mana proposed that since democratic elections are adopted, it is better to make democracy more thorough.

It means that if you want to elect, you must have procedures.If there is a procedure, you have to be open and fair.Isn't it necessary to formulate a set of rules first to say what kind of people are qualified to be Hokage, and who are qualified to choose Hokage.Then, in terms of specific procedures, who will nominate Hokage candidates? If it is recommended by the village's senior management, shouldn't we form a senior management team first?

What?You said of course it is composed of major families?

No, no, isn't it good democracy?If you do this, you have become a family member monopolizing the power layer. Then what about those ninjas who are not from big families?What about companion love?

……

All in all, Mana grasped the point of "democracy" and spit out all the political science knowledge he could think of in one breath.

When things have developed to the point where everyone is lying on the table with dark circles and looking at Chennai in pain, he said impassionedly, "What we need before the election is to formulate a "Constitution" to protect the basic rights of the people." Finally, under everyone's resentful eyes, Madara took Mana by the collar and led her home.

Uchiha clan.

"Is democracy so fun! Is election so simple! Let Tomona see it!" Mana was still in a state of excitement.

Ever since she found out how Tobima sold herself a few days ago, Mana has been heartbroken over the fact that he actually spoke ill of the elders of her family behind her back and was overheard.

...Of course, she wouldn't care about the fact that Uchiha didn't say anything good about him, let alone whether it had something to do with her family's adults not taking the usual path.

#On the self-cultivation of a brain-dead fan#

"...eat." Madara said.

"... Oh." He bowed his head and picked up the rice.

The new home is still a traditional low table, on which are rice, tempura, grilled saury, miscellaneous boiled dishes and a plate of pickles.

"So," Izumi held a tempura, "isn't it finally decided that each family recommends a candidate, and then let the whole village vote to decide?"

"Well, but at least the election procedures have been determined in writing, and there will be a direction for what I want to do in the future. Besides," Mana swallowed the saury in her mouth, and said, "I just want to cause them some trouble That's all."

In fact, what Mana considered more was how to win the second election if the head of the family failed in the first Hokage election.The electoral process is a very important part.

In addition, judging from the current situation, it is inevitable that Konoha’s politics will be monopolized by the major families. Although it is not obvious now, after ninjas from non-family backgrounds grow up, there will definitely be dissatisfaction with the family’s political situation.At that time, if the reform can be carried out successfully, it must be a beautiful political achievement.So it's best to start now with some foreshadowing...

Madara glanced at her with a faint smile in his eyes.

Mana felt guilty for a moment.I always felt that this expression seemed to be saying don't go around, he could tell... She subconsciously felt a dull pain in the back of her head.

Please don't fight!

"Manna..." He called her.

"Yes!" Mana put down the bowls and chopsticks all of a sudden, her eyes widened

"Don't talk while eating fish." Madara said indifferently.

"... Oh." Mana lowered her head and continued to cook rice.

Quan Nai looked left and right.

#Subtle feeling of being isolated#

"Speaking of which, Mana," Quanna held another tempura, put aside the strange feeling just now, and complained to her little friend, "Today's tempura is a bit overcooked."

"Huh? Is there?" Mana, whose cooking skills were questioned, immediately grabbed a tempura, "Well... I think it's okay."

She naturally held one for Ban, looked at him expectantly and asked, "Brother Ban, what do you think?"

He glanced at his bright-eyed brother.

Take another look at the girl's moist eyes.

Bow your head and bite.

Senna opened her eyes wide.

Mana opened her eyes wide.

"...Well, it's okay." He concluded.

"That's right, Izumi!" Mana proudly raised her chin at the beautiful boy.

"...Tch." Quan Nai turned her head aggrievedly, and said angrily, "I knew, big brother never said that the food made by Mana was not delicious!"

Spot's movements paused.

Mana mocked Quanna unscrupulously: "Yeah, I'm jealous~"

"Humph……"

Although it is recommended by each family separately, at this time, everyone knows that Hokage can only be produced between Senjuzhuma and Uchiha Madara.Therefore, there are only these two candidates in the end. Even if other people have the heart - such as Shimura Yuzo - they will not choose to humiliate themselves in this election.

After the candidates are determined, they will explain to the public through the newspapers the information on the candidates, the election procedures such as when, where and how to vote.With Mana's efforts, Toma agreed that each candidate's team could make brochures and distribute them to the public.

By the way, the name of the newspaper was given by Mana, and the name is "Konoha Daily".When Quan Nai said with a look of disgust that the name was too earthy, Mana told him with a deep face: "You don't understand, it's called feelings."

After that, Mana and Quanna enthusiastically devoted themselves to the business of writing brochures.Mana even produced a main issue and a supplement.

The main issue introduces the history of the Uchiha clan, how many difficult tasks have been completed, which famous battles they have participated in and won, and how powerful the current patriarch is, and the behavior of shaking hands with the old enemy Senjuzhuma also shows that What kind of mind and vision did you have?In addition, the results of random visits to the streets of Konoha residents are listed, which shows that the Uchiha clan has a very good reputation in the village.And everyone doesn't know, wow, the Senju clan once hoped that the Uchiha clan would monopolize the position of the Konoha Police Force. This fully shows that the Uchiha clan has produced a large number of talents.It's just that the patriarch's open-mindedness changed to be shared by Senju and Uchiha.

The positioning of the supplement is mainly for women, and its content does not mention elections at all, but only publishes photos, materials and interviews of various young talents of the Uchiha clan, and deeply analyzes the stories behind "the Uchihas we are looking at these days". .Of course, the focus is of course Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Quanna.

By the way, the people in charge of the supplement are Fujii and Yuka from "Starlight Online". The former is the fanboy of the Uchiha patriarch, and the latter is the fangirl of Quanna.

The brochures of the Uchiha clan with detailed content, exquisite printing, and accurate positioning instantly caused an upsurge in Konoha. Every day, the clansmen responsible for distributing the brochures for free found Mana or Quanna crying and complained that they were angered by the angry people because the stock had been distributed. Chasing but not daring to fight back, such a tragic story.

Mana's reaction was to pat the other person on the shoulder, express her understanding and sympathy, and ask them to continue to endure for the sake of the family's future, but if they really can't bear it and dare to attack the residents...

There are countless barren fields waiting to be reclaimed, beckoning to you~

Uchiha during that time was really painful and happy.

This kind of fresh publication has become the latest trend in Konoha for a while, not only ordinary people, but even major families will send people to collect it.Of course, someone tried to pry into Uchiha's secrets from these materials, but naturally nothing substantial was found.

Although the Senju Clan reacted quickly after the initial bewilderment, and also learned Uchiha's propaganda methods, but due to the lack of professional guidance, their promotional brochures appeared to be quite satisfactory, lacking explosive points, and it was difficult to arouse the interest of the whole people.

Therefore, looking at Mana's appearance during that time, I wish I could kill her with a flying thunder god at any time.

Mana returned a calm smile.

She guessed that the other party deeply regretted why they agreed to the candidate's self-promotion.

Under Mana's insistence, Madara needs to show up on Konoha's main street every day, with footprints all over the village.Sometimes with Quanna, sometimes with Mana, and sometimes with Hashirama who was also kicked out by his younger brother.

Quan Nai privately told Mana with jealousy that Mana is probably the only one in the world who can force her brother to wander on the street every day by relying on hard work and hard work.

"Then that's how the election is. This hasn't allowed the candidates to debate in public round after round..." Mana said solemnly, but she was a little proud of herself.

Hehehe, only Mana in the world can... or something...

No, no, come back to God!

Mana patted her cheek, and refocused on the latest public opinion survey report in her hand.

"Of course I support Madara-sama, um, you have a good eye..."

"Because I have always liked Senna-sama, I will definitely support Senna-sama's brother! That's right..."

"This... I like Hashirama-sama's hairstyle, so what the hell are you supporting him..."

"I still like Master Hashirama, a ninja with such a smile will definitely be a good Hokage..."

"The head of the Uchiha family looks very calm, and it is more reassuring to have such a person leading the village... That's right..."

"Although I like Koizumi very much, I think Koizumi's brother can be trusted, but I still feel unreliable if I haven't married yet...Damn it, is marriage really such an important thing?!"

"What marriage?"

"It's just... Huh?!!!!" Mana hurriedly recited the investigation report, and then realized that there is no need to hide these things now, so she smiled, "Brother Madara, good morning! Have you had breakfast!"

The Uchiha patriarch, who is used to not taking the usual path, stood on the window sill, leaning against the window frame, with a chic demeanor.Hearing Mana's words, he turned his head to look at the sky, raised his eyebrows slightly at her, and said, "Morning? Are you sure?"

goo—

Mana rubbed her stomach, then looked at the sky, and realized later: "Ah, it's already noon... oh shit!"

"...What's wrong?" Madara jumped off the window sill and walked to her.

"I forgot to make a bento..." Mana showed a pitiful expression.

Madara frowned and asked, "Didn't you still ask Quanna what she wanted to eat this morning?"

"Quenna said that he has to eat out during this time," said Mana with a gossipy smile, "It seems that because of the fierce publicity during this period, many people are vying to invite him to dinner hahaha."

Thinking of the two exaggerated promotional materials, even Madara couldn't help but feel chills, and tried not to recall the Uchiha clan described in it as "harmonious and loving on the outside, cold on the inside and shy on the inside"...

Yes, that's an adjective for backpage.

"Forget it," he resisted the urge to touch his forehead, "come and eat with me."

"Really!" Mana smiled and narrowed her eyes for a while, but then her expression changed, and she looked at him suspiciously, "Wait, Brother Madara, didn't you say that you will have dinner with Master Hashirama at noon today?"

"That can't be helped," Madara said pretending to be helpless, "Who made you so careless."

Mana glared at him.

Don't think I can't see that you said that on purpose!Childish or not!

"Why do you say that?" She rolled her eyes and made a very depressed and aggrieved look, looking at him with full eyes, almost crying, "If it wasn't because Brother Madara said that he would have dinner with Mr. Hashirama , I don’t need to make bento anymore, and I won’t forget to make my share, and Mingming Madara’s share will never be forgotten..."

... Really, so fake.Madara's entire face was about to twitch.

He finally knew why Chennai was so in tune with a weird existence like "Starlight Online".

"...that's fine," he simply chose to do it directly—with his mind blown, he said helplessly, "Stop pretending, just say a word."

"Go..." Mana pretended to be pitiful and failed, she covered her forehead and hung her head, weakly saying.

However, you can forget your own, but won't you forget his share... His heart warmed up, and there was a little smile in his eyes.

"However," he remembered the few words he heard just now, "what did you just say about getting married?"

Only then did Mana remember what she was worrying about before, and her face became tangled again.

She also remembered the comments she heard from her uncle when she transformed into the little boy A Wu.At first I thought it was just Wei Shushu's strange opinion, but I didn't expect many people to think so.

But... it's too late to rush the ducks to the shelves now?Where is she going to find a princess to marry back?

Moreover……

"Ah, it's nothing," Mana tried to be perfunctory, "I just found out that Hashirama-sama is already married, and I feel a little surprised."

Madara looked at her a little strangely: "That guy Hashirama got married very early, the child is almost three years old."

"... Huh?!" Mana was stunned, "Children? Even have children? Almost three years old?!"

Never heard of it before? !

However, there seems to be a saying now that it is best not to tell the outside world until the child is fully raised.

"The Thousand Hands Clan's brochure published the news." Madara said, "Didn't you read it?"

"Not yet...wait!" Mana reacted, and said in surprise, "Brother Madara, have you read Senshou's brochure?!"

"...What kind of eyes do you have?" Madara intuited that Mana thought of something strange, and suddenly felt a little itchy, and frowned, "Have you forgotten the simple truth of knowing yourself and your enemy?"

"...I'm sorry," Mana raised her hand in surrender, and said obediently, "I was wrong."

…Admitting mistakes is too straightforward, but I feel that there is no sincerity.But could he say anything else?

"...Let's go," he jumped onto the windowsill, "The time is almost up."

"One, Le, La, Noodles?" Mana stood in front of the shop, chanting a few majestic characters word by word.

She looked at the grown-ups of her family in disbelief.

The spotted face is expressionless, and there are twitching veins on the forehead.

He just found it according to the address given by Zhujian.

"Brother Madara, I don't think this store is suitable for us, how about..." Mana grabbed Madara's sleeve and tried to evacuate quickly.

Madara was about to speak...

"Madara, you're here! Oh, Mana is here too!" The curtain opened, and Hashirama's face appeared in front of their eyes.

White haori, green top, supple black long straight, bright and sunny smile without a trace of haze.

...It's over, it's too late.

Worse……

"Madara, why are you here!" A silver-haired young man with frowning came out, "...and Mana."

Madara glanced at Hashirama, and was not in a hurry to greet him. His cool eyes drifted to the silver-haired young man next to him, and said, "...the door is also there."

"Oh Hashirama-sama, long time no see!" Mana narrowed her eyes and hooked the corners of her mouth, and said quickly, "There's Tobima! What a coincidence, but we're just passing by and we're leaving soon..."

"Ah? Aren't you guys here for dinner?" Hashirama smiled and explained to his younger brother, "Didn't I tell you, Tobima? I made an appointment to have dinner with Madara at noon today!"

"...Not at all, big brother!" Fei Jian said with a dark face, "You just asked me if I want to have dinner together!"

"Hey...is that so?" Hashirama stroked his chin and recalled, "Mmm... Sure enough, I didn't seem to say it!"

No, Hashirama-sama, you did it on purpose.Mana secretly thought, Master Hashirama seems to have always hoped that Tomona could get along well with Uchiha.Well, although Hashirama-sama is cuter than Tomona-sama, he is naturally black...

Obviously Madara also noticed it, he glanced back and forth between the two people, and said to Hashirama: "Forget it, I think it's still..."

However, Hashirama said decisively: "Oh, by the way, you haven't been to Yile yet, have you? This ramen shop has only opened recently, but it is already very popular in Konoha!"

He turned around and smiled at the boss in the store: "That's right, boss!"

"It's all loved by everyone!" A loud and excited voice came, "To be able to receive two patriarchs at the same time, this is simply a historical moment for Yile!"

At this time, a lot of onlookers had already gathered around, their eyes lit up and they whispered constantly, but no one had the courage to come forward to talk to them.

At this point, I can't go away.

Madara also understood this truth, gave Mana a comforting look, and walked into the ramen shop.

Mana had no choice but to keep up.

"Welcome!" exclaimed the boss and his daughter energetically.

The boss is an uncle with a strong physique and a kind face.Facing his passionate and admiring gaze, even Madara couldn't maintain his aura of not getting close to strangers, so he could only sit down a little stiffly.

Mana sat next to him, looked around, and found that although the shop was small, other people would not dare to come in after the four of them sat down, but it couldn't stop the crowd's enthusiasm for the two Hokage candidates. It can be said that it is extremely lively.

This is an obvious people-friendly strategy.Mana thought.

As a popular civilian food, ramen has an irreplaceable important position in the hearts of residents.At the crucial moment when voting is just around the corner, the candidates share common food with residents at roadside stalls. This kind of spirit of being happy with the people and being approachable is a plus.

Most likely it was a suggestion from Tomona who dedicated himself to his brother.

Of course, such an approach is theoretically applicable to all candidates.But the problem is...

It's easy to talk about other things, but this matter really doesn't seem to suit the elders of her family!

Because from the point of view of etiquette, it is polite to eat noodles in soup, otherwise it is a disrespect to the chef's craftsmanship.However, the Uchiha clan is very particular about words and deeds. When Tajima was still the patriarch, he even kept the habit of "not talking when eating, not talking when sleeping".It was only after Madara took over as the patriarch that the atmosphere in the family became less tense.But foods like noodle soup are still considered too faux pas to be served on the table.

Imagine sitting with everyone at a food stall on the side of the road, having fun, sucking ramen noodles...

And Hashirama, who has a very high affinity, is very natural.

Mana stared at the menu, trying to find an option other than ramen.

Tonkotsu ramen, char siu ramen, miso char siu ramen...

All are ramen! !

As a brain-dead fan who has been committed to maintaining the image of the patriarch for many years, Uchiha Mana has encountered the most serious crisis in history.

However, it turns out that she still doesn't know her family well enough.

After Hashirama announced a large portion of miso char siu ramen, Madara ordered a tonkotsu ramen very calmly, and then ordered the same small portion for the wandering Mana.

"Ah, Mana-sama and Madara-sama really have a good relationship!" the boss's daughter whispered to Mana, her eyes sparkling.

Mana knew her, a little girl named Misa, who was one of Quanna's fans.

"Hey? How did you see that?" Mana subconsciously covered her mouth and asked in a low voice.

"It's obvious," Misa covered the lower half of her face with the menu, glanced at Madara secretly, then winked at Mana, "I ordered food without asking Mana-sama!"

"By the way, are you...?" Meisa gestured with her eyes.

Mana's heart beat wildly, she glanced at the people around her, and stammered, "No no no no no..."

"Oh, haven't you made it clear yet?" Meisa showed a clear look, and made another gesture of encouragement, "Come on! Mana-sama! I like you!"

"Meisa! Don't disturb the guests, come and help!" The uncle's loud voice came.

"Yes—" Misa gave Mana another encouraging look, and then hurried over.

Wait, wait!Misa!He he he he... He can hear it! ! !

wrong!Everyone here can hear it!

Mana tilted her head little by little.

Hashirama was discussing which kind of ramen is the best with Tomama, who was speechless, with a serious face, while the grown-ups from the family...

Not squinting.

She breathed a sigh of relief, but felt a little disappointed subtly.

"Ramen is here!"

Four bowls of steaming hot ramen with rich soup and rich side dishes were served one after another.

It looks really delicious... As an unobvious kitchen lover, Mana was immediately attracted to it, and her eyes lit up.

"It looks delicious!" Hashirama said first, "I'm starting!"

The boss and Misa looked at him nervously and expectantly.

suck-

"Well...it's really delicious!" Hashirama raised his head and gave the boss a thumbs up without hesitation, "Super delicious!"

There was a humming sound outside the curtain.

……hateful!Although he knew that it was not his fault that Hashirama-sama was approachable, how could he admit defeat in this situation!

Mana secretly clenched her fists, making up her mind, looking into the eyes of the elders of her own family with fierce fighting spirit.

spot:"……"

This girl is really diverging her mind again, right?

"Then, I'm going to start too!" Mana's eyes slipped between the excited boss and Hashirama, and she switched to the energetic mode with a flick of her eyelashes, announcing loudly with a smile.

The same tense and expectant gaze...

"Hey, it's really great!" Mana's eyes sparkled, "This rich soup must be genuine, carefully brewed broth, with a perfect balance of salt and light; the noodles are soft on the outside and springy on the inside, full of chewiness, which shows the skill of the boss in kneading noodles; There is this egg! The yolk is a wonderful orange, and only the most suitable heat can make such an egg between solidification and flow!"

she said impassionedly.

"Oh oh, that's amazing!" This is Hashirama, "Are you so knowledgeable about cooking, Mana!"

"As expected of Master Mana!" This was Misa.

"I really didn't expect that you are also a fellow!" The boss was about to burst into tears, "I can get such understanding, such appreciation, and such praise! I will die without regret!"

There was another buzzing behind the curtain.

Mana secretly made a V comparison, pretending not to feel the contemptuous gaze from Tomona.

"...Hey, dad, this is a bit serious." Meisa, with a drop of cold sweat, pulled her father's clothes and smiled dryly at the guests, "Ahaha, I'm sorry, father is too obsessed with ramen..."

"No, no, no! I understand very well!" Mana's eyes were sincere, "It is precisely with such deep love and concentration that the supreme ramen can be created!!"

"I'm so touched!" The uncle wiped the slightly wet corners of his eyes, and said resolutely, "In order to celebrate today's meeting with a bosom friend, please let me bear the expenses of today's few!"

"No, for this..." Mana quickly declined.

"Please be sure to let me take responsibility!"

"Then," Madara, who didn't know when it started, put down his chopsticks, stroked the top of Mana's hair, and then nodded slightly to the boss, "We won't be polite."

"Yes!" The boss replied loudly.

When the boss and Misa returned to the back kitchen and were busy, Hashirama suddenly smirked (?) and said to his best friend: "Madara! Let's compare who will finish eating first!"

Hashirama-sama, are you even faster at eating noodles!Mana was speechless.

Please, this childish...

Hearing the provocation from Hashirama, Madaramoto paused slowly, turned his head slightly, and faced Hashirama with an expressionless face.

The air was silent for a second.

...this childish...

Almost at the same time, the two launched a lightning attack on their ramen.

……childish……

Chi Liu Chi Liu——

Huhu——

The smooth, straight hair swayed in elegant arcs in the air.

The unruly fried hair danced proudly in the wind.

"I'm done eating!" X2

look at each other.

His eyes moved to the bottom of the opponent's bowl.

Eyes wide open.

They looked at each other again.

Squinting.

At the same time coldly snorted.

"It's a tie again," said Hashirama.

"I'm the one who won," Madara said.

"It's clearly a tie!" Hashirama said indignantly.

"You were the one who started it," Madara pointed out.

... No, I lost.Mana silently ate the last mouthful of ramen.

"Welcome next time!"

Amidst such voices, facing the eyes of the crowd in all directions, several people left Yile Ramen's shop.

"Lunch was fun, Madara!" Hashirama clapped his arms and laughed, "Let's go together next time!"

The sky was bright in the afternoon, and the white road was a little dazzling.And the white haori on Hashirama's body was even more dazzling.

"Hey, big brother..." Feijian seemed to want to touch his forehead again.

He didn't wear the iconic white fur collar today, but wore the same hakama as Hashirama. He looked much more peaceful, and even the red marks on his face were less ostentatious.

"Ok?"

"...No, it's nothing." Feijian looked at the smile on his elder brother's face, and at the old enemy opposite, but still didn't say much.

"Let's talk about it next time." Madara replied, "Let's go first."

Mana has been listening to the surrounding discussions with her ears upright, and after confirming that the crowd has basically positive comments on today's dinner, she can't help but feel good.

Especially thinking that the beneficiaries of the people-friendly action planned by Tomama this time have become both Uchiha and Senju. Looking at the unwillingness in Tomama's eyes, Mana's mood is even better.So much so that before leaving, she smugly made a V comparison to the other party.

Fly Thunder God Slash!That's what the other person's eyes said.

After bidding farewell to Hashirama and Togama, Mana, who was full and full of food and drinks, became a little lazy, and her thoughts inevitably became slack.

In other words, I haven't seen him for so long that I almost forgot...Brother Ban used to be a very lively person!

A little melancholy again.

However, I feel more and more that maybe the election of the first Hokage is not hopeless, right?

"What are you thinking about?" Mana, who was usually chattering, fell silent, and asked clearly.

"Hmm..." The girl looked up at him, apparently still unfocused, blinking her unfocused eyes slowly.

"Don't answer 'nothing'."

"...Oh." I came back to my senses.

"... Mana."

"what?"

"Just now at the store..." Madara hesitated uncommonly.

"Huh? Brother Madara?"

"No, nothing..." He looked forward again.

"Pfft! Forget it, I won't complain about you, haha... oh, hit me again!"

small theater

However, you can forget your own, but won't you forget his share... His heart warmed up, and there was a little smile in his eyes.

interviewing.

Moderator: So what about Naruto-sama?What do you think is the cutest thing about Madam?

Madara (thinking for a while, showing a faint smile): I always like to say some nasty things, and I don't know whether it is serious or pretending.

Mana (curling lips): Are you disgusted?

Madara (raising eyebrows): It is still within the tolerance range.

Quan Nai (looking sideways at these two people): Hasn't the topic already been said!Brother, you obviously think it's cute!
