Naruto: The Beautiful Uchiha is Actually Me?

Should I join in Chapter 106?

"So...you want me to lead my clan to join you...?" Takita's mind was in a mess. He had just heard Madara and Hashirama's words, but he still didn't quite understand their thoughts.

After all, he carried the fate of his clan on his shoulders, and he had to be extremely careful and cautious in every decision he made.

As Madara and Hashirama just mentioned, joining the so-called village-building plan means that the Hagoromo clan has completely integrated into the other two clans. In essence, it is a fusion of the three clans, which is a good thing... but every advantage has its disadvantages, and Takita has to consider more.

"I..."

Takita couldn't give an answer right away. He felt helpless and didn't know what decision to make.

On the surface, this does seem like a very good opportunity, but what if the Feathered Robe Clan declines or is completely assimilated because of their decision...?

If only his father were still alive, Takita thought sincerely.

Madara understood Takita's concerns. After all, he and Hashirama had taken a gamble in making this decision. Integrating the clan into the village meant that the administrative center would no longer be the clan head, but the village head, also known as the Hokage.

But everyone has just been through war, and it's unlikely that they can completely trust each other, let alone eliminate the previous estrangement.

“How about this… we’ll still build the village together, but we’ll still maintain the family structure. Everyone can send capable ninjas to the village to contribute,” Hashirama tentatively suggested.

"Uh... Hashirama, this isn't much different from what you're doing now," Madara muttered to himself, but it was undoubtedly a solution.

At least, everyone can live together first, live close to each other, and then gradually get to know each other. Eventually, they will have a sense of belonging to this land and this village, right?

"Can I think about it some more?" Takita neither agreed nor refused on the spot; he needed to consider this matter carefully.

Madara and Hashirama nodded in unison, saying, "Of course! It's your prerogative. Now that we've signed a peace treaty, whatever decision you make, we're all friendly families."

"it is good..."

With a nervous heart, Takita walked out of the reception room.

Walking alone on the main road of the Uchiha clan's territory, Takita lowered his head, constantly pondering Hashirama and Madara's proposal. It wasn't that he didn't want to build the village with them; in fact, he really wanted to. But... that was just his personal desire and couldn't be a decision that concerned the future of the clan.

To be frank, from the family's perspective, he didn't know if this was the right thing to do.

"Taki Tai..."

A voice came from afar. Takita looked around curiously, but couldn't find who was calling him.

“It’s up there! Taki!” Yan Yi squatted on the roof, smiling and waving at Takita.

Takita looked up, instantly forgetting the disappointment and hesitation in his eyes.

"Yan Yi!" Seeing the little figure on the roof, Takita's mood immediately improved.

During this period, as the clan leader, he had been suppressing his feelings and felt very tired and confused. Even on the day he met with the Uchiha and signed the reconciliation treaty, he suppressed his longing and did not go to greet Yan Yi.

But today, Yan Yi took the initiative to greet him and even called him by his nickname... He immediately threw away his identity as the young clan leader of the Feathered Robe Clan, even though it was only temporary, and he was very happy now.

With two steps and a leap, she instantly jumped onto the roof, looking happily at the boy she had been longing for.

"Yan Yi, did you wait for me specifically? I'm sorry! I ignored you last time because..."

"It's alright, you've worked hard these past few days... After all, being the clan leader must be very tiring."

Yan Yi pulled his hand and invited him to sit down next to her.

Takita blushed slightly. Although he still liked him very much, Takita's status was different now. He was no longer the willful young master he used to be. He was a little more mature than before and would no longer clamor for Yan Yi to marry him.

"Yan Yi, thank you."

Yan Yi was taken aback and asked curiously, "Why are you thanking me?"

Takita gazed into the distance at the endless forest and said softly, "It's nothing, I just wanted to thank you."

"Well..."

Yan Yi sensed that the boy beside her seemed to have changed a bit.

The joy and delight in his heart lasted only a short while before Takita remembered what they had just said. Those questions had been weighing on his mind, and now was the perfect opportunity to have a heart-to-heart talk with them...

"Yan Yi," Takita asked softly, a hint of confusion in his voice, "Do you think I should lead my clan to join this village-building plan?"

Although it's pointless to ask the so-called third young master of the Uchiha clan about this, he's only asking Yan Yi now. Yan Yi wouldn't lie to him, and he's the person Takita trusts most besides his family and brothers.

Yan Yi understood the emotion in his tone, and instead of answering directly whether it was good or bad, she asked in return, "Then... what do you think, Longzai? Do you want to build a village with us?"

Takita's eyes flickered slightly, and he nodded his little head gently, replying, "Yes."

Yan smiled and gently ruffled his hair.

"Then let's do it your way. I believe you can lead the clan well!"

He paused, then looked into the distance with longing and said, "It would be wonderful if we could build a village together, live together, and play happily together, and the children wouldn't have to go to the battlefield... Your concerns aren't unfounded... But don't worry, although I can't give you any guarantees, Brother Ban... will protect your clan, definitely."

Takita was touched by Yan Yi's words, and a glimmer of expectation began to grow in his heart.

That's right... I'm the head of the clan, how can I hesitate on such an important matter! It's either agree or refuse. Although I have too many worries or concerns right now, if I think about it carefully, the Uchiha clan has never betrayed the Hagoromo clan, so I don't need to worry about those possible things.

The Senju clan...while they were indeed very wicked in the past and did many things to harm the Hagoromo clan, their patriarch is now definitely dead. Since it was Yan Yi's most trusted brother who chose to believe him, then...shouldn't I believe I can trust him too?

Without waiting for Takita's reply, Yan Yi continued, "Of course, whatever decision you make is for the good of your family, and we will still be good friends."

"My good friend..."

Takita felt a little disappointed, but also a little happy... This feeling was complicated. He could tell that Yan Yi's kindness towards him was only out of friendship, not out of the same kind of love he had for Yan Yi.

But... as long as I can get a little closer to Yan Yi, that's enough, right?

Yan Yi was actually quite confused. Although he did like Takita a lot, it wasn't the same kind of liking Takita had for him. He didn't know, nor did he realize, that another person might have already taken up residence in his heart.

"I'm sorry..." Yan Yi noticed that Takita's mood had changed and felt a little guilty.

Takita snapped out of his daze, shook his head, and started laughing again.

"Hehe, it's okay, Yan Yi. Even if we're just friends, as long as you don't hate me, that's fine." Although there was a hint of forced smile, her two canine teeth were still quite cute.

"It's decided!" Takita stood up and looked into the distance. "I'm joining the village-building project too! For the sake of the Hagoromo clan, and for the sake of you, Yan Yi, at least for now, I think it's the right thing to do!"

Seeing that the little tiger had regained its spirits, Yan Yi breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He has indeed grown up and made progress. If possible, I really hope he can be happier.

"Yes, everything will be alright!" Yan Yi replied confidently.
