Shoji raised his head and looked at Uchiha Fugaku in front of him with a hint of surprise.
It must be said that Fugaku's start is really beyond the general's expectations. You must know that although the security department in charge of the clan is indeed easy to offend people, under normal circumstances, the area that the security department can cover is
It is still very large. The squad leader is already considered a high-level position with real power in the security department. There are six squads under his jurisdiction. There are a total of 12 squad captains in the entire security department. Generally speaking, they are all senior and powerful in the Uchiha clan.
Only jounin can serve.
Even someone as powerful as Uchiha Shisui did not serve in the security department.
Of course, his situation is a relatively special one, and I don’t even have the intention to do so. If we don’t take a general look at it, but just look at the regular settings, the squad leaders are almost all Uchiha Yashiro, Uchiha Iron Fire, and Uchiha Guyuan.
A 30-year-old tribesman is in charge.
And in the security department that the clan is responsible for now, if the general remembers correctly, the squad leader is fully equipped. If Fugaku lets himself serve as the squad leader, he needs to squeeze out one person in advance, although in the regular operation of the security department
, job changes, people joining, and people quitting are indeed normal phenomena, but in the current situation, it seems a little special.
'Are you testing me? Or are you just trying to win me over? Or are you trying to shake things up?'
For a moment, many thoughts flashed through Jiang Si's mind. Finally, he slowly exhaled a breath and said with a calm look on his face: "Thank you very much, the patriarch. I also thank you for your respect, but I'm afraid I can't take on the role."
It’s an important responsibility entrusted to us by our clan.”
If you can't guess right now, don't guess. Follow your own pace. The best strategy is always to pull the opponent into a rhythm you are familiar with.
This is the everlasting magic weapon for winning.
Obviously, Fugaku was stunned for a moment when he heard Shoji's answer. He had considered many answers, including rejection, which was also a predictable answer, but such a direct rejection was still a little surprising.
Unexpected.
This made Fugaku unable to react immediately.
After looking at Shoji a few more times, as if to confirm that Shoji was not joking, Fugaku slowly said, "Why? You shouldn't have any reason to refuse, right?"
Those eyes seemed to have become sharper.
Let the air in this room become more solemn.
"There must be a reason, and it is related to the Hokage-sama's summons just now. However, I can only tell the clan leader about this matter to you alone, and I also ask the clan leader to reject the others."
Raising his eyebrows, he looked directly at Uchiha Fugaku in front of him, and in an extremely solemn tone, he once again said something that surprised Fugaku. The eyebrows that were knitted together later proved that Fugaku was a little unsure.
What is the intention of this talented young man of ours?
the most important point is.
The leadership of the conversation in front of him obviously fell into the hands of the general, which made Fugaku somewhat uncomfortable.
However, Fugaku is the most powerful person in the Uchiha clan after all. He quickly adjusted his mentality, took a deep look at Shoji and said, "You really exceed my expectations every time, Shoji-kun."
Finish this sentence.
Fugaku turned his head slightly and glanced at Yashiro on the left.
Yashiro immediately understood and strode out of the room. As he passed by Shoji, the most trusted subordinate of the Fugaku clan also looked at Shoji more meaningfully.
The general didn't look sideways, still looking straight ahead with a calm expression.
Until Yashiro completely disappeared from sight.
There was indeed no third person within Shoji's own perception range, so he didn't wait for Uchiha Fugaku in front of him to ask.
"Sandaime-sama called me over today because he wanted me to join the direct ANBU!"
The general took the initiative to speak.
It's just that the words he spoke were like a ground-breaking shock. Fugaku's right hand that he wanted to raise suddenly stopped. His calm expression before was completely frozen at this moment, as if he couldn't believe his ears.
A normal look.
"What did you say? The Third Master asked you to join the ANBU? Shoji-kun, this is not something you can say in a joke!"
Because he was too shocked, Fugaku didn't even bother to restrain his expression. With his wide eyes, his body unconsciously leaned forward, looking straight at General, and said with a shocked and questioning tone.
.
ANBU!
This is the most important, scariest, and most mysterious department in the village.
As the leader of the Uchiha clan, Fugaku knows better than many people what kind of existence ANBU is. Even a long time ago, before he took charge of the Uchiha clan, he clearly realized that ANBU was important to their clan.
It’s the biggest ban!
No Uchiha can be allowed to join ANBU.
This is the biggest suppression and suspicion of the Uchiha clan by the Konoha high-level officials. Fugaku once expected that when the third generation Hokage and the others passed away and the fourth generation Hokage truly took charge of the supreme power of Konoha Ninja Village, the Uchiha clan might join them.
The probability in the ANBU, but now, I heard from Shoji that the Third Hokage who suppressed their Uchiha clan for more than thirty years actually invited Shoji to join the ANBU.
Even with Fugaku's self-cultivation, it was difficult to restrain the violent waves deep in his heart at this moment.
The expression suddenly changed, and the volume that was subconsciously raised and then forcibly suppressed all showed the intense turmoil in Uchiha Fugaku's heart.
"Yes, Lord Patriarch, just now, and the Third Generation personally invited me, I should be taking up a post in the ANBU in a few days."
The general still said slowly with a calm look on his face.
Looking at General who is still so calm.
Fugaku's previously ups and downs in his heart seemed to slowly calm down at this moment. Fugaku frowned slightly. Fugaku felt as if he wanted to get to know Shoji again. After pondering for a while, he said, "Shouji-kun."
, do you know what it means to be invited by the Third Generation to join the Anbu?"
"And you actually told me this matter so unabashedly? Don't you know that ANBU has confidentiality regulations? The most critical issue of ANBU's identity is that only the Hokage is qualified to know!"
As Fugaku spoke, his eyes were fixed on Shoji in front of him, as if he wanted to read Shoji's heart from his next words and deeds.
