Therefore, Uchiha Chiri had long intended to nominate him as the head of the clan. However, at that time, Uchiha Chi had yet to awaken his Three-Tomoe Sharingan; lacking sufficient strength, he was unwilling to shoulder such a heavy responsibility or waste his limited energy on what seemed like a bottomless pit, and thus he had declined.
Now, with Uchiha Chi actively demonstrating a strong willingness to inherit the position of clan head, coupled with his current formidable strength, Uchiha Chiri readily expressed her approval. Through her conversation with Uchiha Chi, she was surprised to discover that as his insights into the Shinobi World grew more profound, his political acumen had also become increasingly exceptional. This was what Uchiha Chiri valued most—even more so than Uchiha Chi's raw power.
After all, the Uchiha Clan was not short on powerful individuals, but those with sufficient political awareness were pitifully scarce. In her view, Uchiha Chi was the sole hope, a rare and precious sapling, and she was thoroughly satisfied with his outstanding strength. Consequently, her determination and enthusiasm for pushing Uchiha Chi to become the clan head grew ever stronger.
