[Ding! Host has triggered a main quest.]

⟩ Reward: Draw Chance ×1
Looking at the large amount of information updated by the system, Gento couldn't help but feel his eyes light up.
He had long wanted to improve Family Prosperity, but his previous low status had made it impossible.
Now that he was clan head, he could carry out sweeping reforms.
Combined with the two buildings, [Indulgence Apartments] and [Desire Hot Springs], once they were constructed, would population growth still be a concern?
Most importantly, he himself was also extremely interested in these two buildings.
He stroked his chin, and an involuntary thought surfaced in his mind.
Once these two buildings were completed, he must bring Kurenai and Pakura to experience them!
"Gento, now that you've assumed the position of clan head, the clan meeting must proceed at once. We need to set the clan's future direction."
Elder Soen's voice pulled him back to reality.
Gento came back to his senses and nodded in response.
A new official taking office; he indeed needed to show his stance.
The hall quickly filled with people.
The three elders, squad captains, Jonin, Special Jonin… nearly everyone in the clan with a say had arrived.
Gento sat in the main seat representing the clan head.
"Everyone, I have become clan head because of the trust of the entire clan. I won't speak fancy words; just one sentence…"
He paused, his gaze sweeping across every face present.
"I will make the Uchiha great again!
"First matter. The commander of the Leaf Police Force will remain Fugaku, continuing to lead those three hundred men."
Even though he coveted Fugaku's wife, Mikoto Uchiha.
And despite Fugaku having competed with him for the position of clan head, Gento was not a petty person.
It had to be admitted that Fugaku was currently in his prime, not only possessing powerful strength, but also rich experience. He was the best candidate for the position of police force commander.
Hearing this, Fugaku stood up and bowed his head:
"As you command."
Gento nodded, then continued:
"Second matter. The Uchiha need their own intelligence network. I have decided to establish an Anbu. Shisui will serve as its commander."
He looked toward the silent young man in the crowd.
"For now, the number is set at twenty. You will choose the members yourself. Report directly to me, without going through any intermediaries."
Shisui raised his eyes, his expression still calm.
"As you command."
"Third matter, and also the most urgent one at present…"
Gento slowed his speech:
"Our clan… has too few people.
"So many died in the war. Count household by household… how many newborns are there?"
No one spoke.
"No people, no future. Without the next generation, who will inherit the Sharingan? Who will carry the Uchiha name?"
He raised his voice:
"From today onward, one of the clan's priorities will be to encourage childbirth. As for how, I'll implement it step by step.
"Shisui, stay. Everyone else, dismissed."
The crowd rose and filed out.
Some muttered as they left:
"This is straightforward at least… much cleaner than the former clan head's long-winded speeches."
Others frowned:
"Encourage childbirth… how exactly? Hand out money?"
Gento ignored the discussions.
What he planned would be far more extreme than handing out money!
Once most people had left, only he and Shisui remained in the room.
He took out a sealing scroll from his robes and casually tossed it over.
Shisui caught it; it felt heavy in his hands.
"There's four hundred thousand ryo in there. Use it as the startup fund for the Anbu."
Shisui paused slightly, then lowered his head:
"Yes."
"There's another task for you right now."
Gento leaned back in his chair:
"Go find a group of reliable craftsmen. Specialists in building, not just anyone. Remember, the budget doesn't matter. They must be skilled."
Shisui didn't ask further, simply responded briefly:
"Understood."
"Alright, go."
Shisui's figure disappeared beyond the door.
Gento sat for a moment, then stood and walked outside.
…
By the time he reached his home, it was late into the night.
Gento noticed a familiar figure standing at the entrance.
It was his girlfriend, Kurenai Yuhi.
"Kurenai, what brings you here so late?"
Gento asked knowingly, one hand resting on her.
"Mm~"
His sudden move made Kurenai let out a soft, coquettish sound.
"My father went on a mission today. I'm alone at home."
Gento's hand had already begun to wander, moving restlessly over her body.
"Gento! You… you're so bad~"
"I have something to tell you."
He leaned closer, unable to hide the smile in his voice.
"I just became clan head."
Kurenai raised her eyes, surprise and delight both visible in her gaze.
"Really?"
"Why would I lie to you?"
Gento looked at her:
"With such good news, won't you give me a gift?"
Kurenai froze for a moment, then understood what he meant.
She raised her hand as if to hit his chest, but the strike landed without any strength.
"I'm already standing right in front of you… What more do you want…"
Hearing that, Gento immediately let out a mischievous laugh:
"Tonight, you're going to play something exciting with me!"
As he spoke, Gento carried Kurenai into the house.
As soon as they entered, Kurenai saw Pakura inside.
"Gento, who is this woman?"
Kurenai immediately demanded.
"This is a ninja I captured from Sand. She's now my secretary."
After explaining, Gento ordered:
"Pakura, clean up the house!"
Hearing this, Pakura gritted her teeth in anger.
However, thinking of the slave mark on her body, she had no choice but to obey.
Kurenai wanted to ask more, but Gento had already sealed her lips.
"Mm…"
Gento carried Kurenai onto the bed, but she pointed outside the door:
"Mm~ no! The door isn't closed; there's still someone outside."
Gento, however, replied:
"That's exactly why we're not closing it!"
