Naruto: Dual-Pupil Uchiha

"Recruiting Uchiha clan members? With their pride, they would never agree to this!" Uchiha Kinya said firmly, shaking his head. The Uchiha are known for their arrogance.

The Uchiha look down on those who do business, so joining a Chamber of Commerce is out of the question for them.

"But how do you know they won't agree if you don't try?" Genya said, stuffing a piece of meat into his mouth. The Uchiha are a prominent clan in Konoha. While they may not have top powerhouses like Madara-sama, there are still many open-minded Chunin and Jonin among them.

Moreover, the Uchiha are currently being sidelined by Konoha. They're not being assigned missions, and even the few that exist aren't given to them. 

Aside from the exceptionally talented Uchiha Shisui, who remains influential in Konoha, the rest are struggling to get by on the clan's resources.

The Konoha Military Police Force, managed by the clan, offends people and offers meager pay. Some have even left the position. If we recruite ninjas now, there would likely be many interested!

"If we can get some Uchiha to join, it would be easier to recruit others," Genya added.

"Can this really work?" Uchiha Kinya asked, still unsure but visibly intrigued.

"It should," Genya said seriously. "The Uchiha clan is being pushed out by Konoha. They've saved some money during the war, but it's running out. They can't keep relying on the clan's resources or on you to support them. The clan's pride makes them reluctant to accept money from merchants."

The Uchiha clan has been excluded from Konoha recently, and everyone knows it. Their only income now is from the Konoha Police Force, but due to Konoha's suppression, even that is meager. 

Some clan members do private tasks to make ends meet, but Konoha punishes them by cutting the Police Force's resources when they're caught.

The Uchiha clan members are struggling in the village.

After some thought, Uchiha Kinya realized Genya was right. He decided to first speak with the most marginalized Uchiha clan members and, if possible, recruit them into the Chamber of Commerce, then gradually bring in others.

It wouldn't be feasible to recruit many at once, but it's a start.

If too many Uchiha clan members were recruited at once, the clan leader, Fugaku, wouldn't be happy and might even stop them from joining.

"I'll go with you and meet the other uncles too!" At the training ground, they usually practice one day and rest the next. Genya and the others are still young and need to build their bodies!

Genya didn't mind. He could train anywhere, so he followed his father to work.

Staying at home all the time was too boring.

"Okay, you can come with me and get used to the work environment. When you don't want to train anymore, you can take over the family business early, and your father can take a break!"

After Genya's analysis, Uchiha Kinya realized his son was more talented in business than he was.

He decided that when Genya grew up, he would pass the family business to him. Then, Kinya could rest, go fishing, or walk his birds, and enjoy being wealthy.

"What a great idea my father has. He wants me to run the business while he plans to relax?" Genya thought with a smirk. "He should leave the business to my grandson in the future. I don't want to run the Chamber of Commerce!"

Genya didn't want to waste time on business, so he let his father handle it. He would just support him.

The next day, Genya went to the Chamber of Commerce with his father early in the morning.

All morning, while his father worked, Genya sat on a chair, cross-legged, practicing. His appetite had increased a lot, probably due to his eyes opening.

During this time, he even had his father's male secretary order more than a dozen bowls of Ichiraku Ramen for him.

These dozen bowls of ramen were just to satisfy his hunger, which seemed endless.

Uchiha Kinya watched in surprise. It looked like his son's appetite had grown again.

"Son, are you okay? Do you want to go to the hospital for a check-up?" Uchiha Kinya asked, a bit worried.

It wasn't that he was afraid his son would drain his wallet, but this seemed a bit unusual!

"I'm fine, Dad. I'm just going through a growth spurt!" Genya reassured him. After eating, he felt every cell in his body buzzing with energy, as if absorbing and strengthening itself.

If this continues, he'll only get stronger.

It looks like I need to find an advanced chakra refining method to quickly enhance my chakra!

"Alright! If you feel unwell, let me know immediately!" Uchiha Kinya said, still a bit uncertain. "Also, take more money with you in the future and eat whatever you want. Don't starve yourself."

"Got it!" After finishing a few more servings of barbecue, the office door opened, and several middle-aged men in Uchiha attire walked in.

They weren't very old—except for one who was a few years older than Uchiha Kinya, the others were younger.

Genya's attention sharpened. It seemed these were the Uchiha clan members Uchiha Kinya wanted to convince.

Realizing this, Genya put aside his casual demeanor and focused seriously on the newcomers, though he kept eating.

"Kinya, is there something you need to discuss with us?" asked the leading middle-aged man, Uchiha Omura, a key figure in the Uchiha clan.

Omura had three tomoe in his Sharingan and was a top jonin with a good relationship with Uchiha Kinya.

"Omura, you're here. Please, have a seat!" Uchiha Kinya welcomed them and had tea served.

"What's the matter?" Uchiha Omura asked after taking a sip of tea.

They knew Uchiha Kinya wouldn't call them here without a reason.

"It's not a big issue. It's just that..."

Uchiha Kinya hesitated, unsure how to continue.

These people are the top ninjas in Konoha, and Uchiha Omura is even a Jonin.

Although he hasn't been active much in recent years due to Konoha's exclusion, his character remains as proud and arrogant as other Uchiha clan members.

He used to have a good relationship with these people, but when it came to asking them to join his business, he couldn't bring himself to do it!

At this moment, Genya finished the last pieces of barbecue, swallowed, and spoke for his father: "Uncles, my father wants you to join our business and take on escort missions!"

Silence!

After these words, the room was filled with a heavy silence, so quiet you could hear a pin drop!
