I, Giyuu Uchiha, am not hated!

In the Death Forest not far from Konoha, a deafening rumbling sound was suddenly heard.

Countless birds gathered in the sky as if fleeing for their lives, densely gathering into a strange dark cloud that flew higher and higher, probably not coming back for a long time.

If you look down from their perspective, you will find that a large number of trees as tall as giants have been blown up and torn apart by the strong wind.

Within an area of ​​nearly 100 meters, the broken limbs of the towering giant trees were piled up layer by layer in the same direction, paving a path through the dense death forest where the sunlight could be fully felt.

And the initiator of all this is standing at the end of the road.

Uchiha Obito's shoulders undulated violently, and the Sharingan that had just released the powerful wind pressure showed endless annoyance and rage.

Over the years, his plans have always been smooth, and he has never encountered any obstacles. It seems that everything happens naturally under his arrangement, and he is the invisible hand that controls everyone's destiny. But this failure slapped him down from the high clouds, and he had to face the reality that he was just an ordinary human being.

Uchiha's genocide operation completely failed.

Not only did they fail to kill Fugaku Uchiha who might interfere with the Eye of the Moon plan, that damn Danzo, but they even gave Mangekyou another Uchiha.

When he thought of what he had boasted about in the kitchen of Fugaku's house that day, saying that no one would ever come back here again, Uchiha Obito felt even more humiliated and urgently wanted to correct the direction in which he had deflected the situation.

"Let's do it ourselves! Now that we know that their children's skills pose no threat to me..."

He whispered to himself at first, but then he shouted nervously into the air: "Then let's do it ourselves and kill them one by one! Don't ever pretend to do anything to others again! No matter Iwa Ninja or Danzo, no one can be trusted. What a waste! If it weren’t for their stupidity and their ease in believing all kinds of wrong information, our plan would never have made such a big mistake!”

"Don't be too childish."

Black Zetsu's body poked out from the ground, looking at Obito with an undetectable look in his empty eyes.

[Because it has always been smooth sailing, now you can no longer accept failure... I still feel like I haven't grown up yet. 】

"You dare to say that there is no threat without even clearing up the information. It seems that you have been carried away by anger."

"One is a variant of fire escape, and the other is a variant of thunder escape or magnetic escape, but that's it."

Obito turned his head violently and asked unconvinced, "Is there anything worth caring about such a child's art to me?"

【Really...】

Black Zetsu cursed in his heart, but still explained patiently: "That black flame is not the first time it has appeared in Uchiha. It is not just a variant of fire escape. Madara has said it in the records he has read before, It is a flaming fire that can keep burning and use all substances as fuel.”

There is no so-called record of Uchiha, everything is the information collected by Black Zetsu himself for thousands of years.

"Uchiha Fugaku's kaleidoscope ability should be able to freely control the flame, and the duration will be far longer than your Kamui's virtualization ability.

"If you want to hurt him, you must reveal part of your body, and you are destined to be set on fire. In addition, Danzo has used Yin Zhenaki several times, even if you use Yin Zhenaki to avoid disaster, he will definitely There will be precautions.”

Obito's face became particularly gloomy under his mask.

This failure not only wasted time, but also exposed an important trump card.

"As for Uchiha Mikoto, that child's technique has never been recorded before. It should be the first time it appears. It's hard to say whether there are other abilities. However, just being able to freely control the dissociation and synthesis of metals is enough. Make her one of the hardest people to kill in the world.

"If you try to deal with her with conventional ninja tools, you're going to die; if you use taijutsu to deal with her at close range, you will instantly drain the metal elements from your body and fall to the ground; and as long as the metal she synthesizes is strong enough, most of the ninjas in the world will be able to defeat her." Technique, it is impossible to break through her defense.

"In the end, even if we exhausted their childish strength, we killed the couple."

Black Zetsu's voice became deep and terrifying, "How can we deal with that brat? You also saw the way he suddenly appeared next to Danzo yesterday. The speed was so fast that even Hinata Hiashi's Byakugan could not detect any trace. Even if he can't hurt you, you can't deal with him. But once you kill the Uchiha couple and expose your abilities, and force the kid's Mangekyou Sharingan, guess what -

"Could his children's skills be specifically aimed at you?"

Upon hearing this, Obito's hands clenched into fists.

The Sharingan is known as the eye of psychological reflection, the awakening kaleidoscope ability, usually based on some obsession of the eye holder.

The resurrection ability of Uchiha Mikoto's "Ama no Ohabari" is enough to illustrate this point.

Therefore, the idea proposed by Hei Jue is not impossible to happen.

"And he seems to be able to see through Danzo's body, and maybe he can also see through yours. This ability is likely to be a microcosm of his kaleidoscope ability in the future, just like you were able to virtualize part of your body before you were still a Sanmagatama.

"But anyway, it's too risky for you to go out in person."

When he thought about the kid awakening the kaleidoscope ability specifically to deal with him, Uchiha Obito suddenly felt that the future was dark.

[Why didn’t you send a White Zetsu to keep an eye on Uchiha before? I didn’t know until now that this kid had such a hidden ability! 】

"This won't work, and that won't work either!"

Obito regretted in his heart and turned his back angrily, "Are we just going to leave Uchiha alone? Do you want to continue Madara's Eye of the Moon plan?!"

"It's not that I don't care, I just don't care for the time being."

Black Zetsu shook his head and corrected: "Besides, although Danzo is not good enough and Iwa Ninja is not good, it is not that we don't have sharper backup tools. It's just that it takes time to polish the tools."

"You mean?" Obito asked tentatively, "Nagato?"

"He is just one of the options. But letting him deal with Uchiha is a bit too risky."

Black Zetsu smiled eerily, "But the appearance of Senju Tobirama gave me a lot of inspiration.

"Even if the living people can't do it, what about the dead? Even though we are separated by the circular prison like the moon, I can feel that the chakra intensity between Senju Tobirama is only 20 to 30% lower than when Madara was here. …

"I never took this technique seriously before, but now it seems that if you give Orochimaru some more time, maybe these dead people reincarnated will be stronger."

"Give him some more time?" Obito frowned under the mask, "But didn't that kid say that Orochimaru is dead?"

"Before Orochimaru left Konoha, Bai Zetsu, who was sent to monitor the Third Hokage, also knew a lot about him."

Black Zetsu shook his head, "In order to live forever, Orochimaru can even develop soul-transfer techniques such as reincarnation, so he must have backup measures to prevent himself from being killed.

"Uchiha Giyuu is certainly a genius, but his experience is too shallow. He probably thought that destroying Orochimaru's body would be a success, but he miscalculated how much he cared about his life."

"..." Obito was silent for a while, chewing on the feasibility of this idea, "Then what should we do next?"

"Tell Nagato first that we will go back later. If he has any tasks, he will leave them to Mikaki Kiyo. That guy should be there by all means."

Kurotsuchi planned: "Next, the two of us will stay in Konoha's forbidden arts room and Danzo's archives room for a few days to see if we can find any content related to Orochimaru and the reincarnation of Yutu.

"If we can find a copy of that technique, even if Orochimaru is really dead, we can use the Earth Reincarnation Technique to summon him to continue research. Although this may be slightly different from the eternal life he wants..."

Obito nodded, his destroyed confidence gradually restored, and he said decisively: "Then do this!"

…

at the same time.

The Uchiha clan members filed out of the shrine with confusion about the future.

Yesterday, only the porch and the outermost wall of the shrine were destroyed by falling rocks. Fortunately, the main interior areas were intact and did not affect the tribesmen coming here to worship.

They came here today to hold a burial ceremony for those who had their Sharingan taken away. It took about a morning to finish.

Since the shrine lord and the shrine's servants all died at the hands of the Kumo ninja, Fugaku had to go into battle in person to play the role of the shrine lord and preside over the sacrifices.

Now that the sacrifice was completed, while he went to change back into his clothes, Uchiha Mikoto and her three sons were waiting in the courtyard outside the main hall of the shrine.

The exciting moment of reunion ended last night, so the family looked relatively calm.

"Yoyong..."

Zuosuke reached out and shook his hand, pulling Yiyong's eyes from the big tree in the courtyard back to him, his two dark eyes full of curiosity.

"Why do you keep the Sharingan open? Isn't this tiring? I usually fight with Naruto... When I practice fighting, the Sharingan becomes very difficult after five minutes."

Mikoto and Itachi also became interested after hearing this question, and also wanted to know why Giyuu did this.

With this child's character, it shouldn't be for the reason of "looking handsome", although there is nothing wrong with saying so——

In this state, Giyuu looks more like a normal child than when he doesn't have his Sharingan open.

"If you don't use the Sharingan's ability, you won't consume too much chakra."

Giyu stared at the chakra cyclone on Zuosuke's abdomen with his right eye, and replied seriously, "Besides, my chakra production efficiency is dozens of times higher than yours. The consumed and newly generated will cancel each other out, so there will be no feeling." ”

"Dozens of times——"

When Zuosuke heard this number, he almost screamed, but Itachi pulled him in front of him and closed his chin.

"You can't yell here."

Uchiha Itachi winked at Sasuke, and then said: "However, what Giyuu just answered was why you 'can' do this. But what Zuosuke wants to ask should be why Giyuu 'wants' to do this, right? Bar?"

Zuosuke nodded blankly.

But then I thought about it, the chakra gap between them was indeed huge, but that gap existed before Giyuu left.

But Giyu's habit of turning on his Sharingan around the clock is new. It must be something that happened in the Water Country.

"That's it."

Giyu suddenly realized, "Someone told me that when the Sharingan is open, it will be easier for me to detect emotions and emotions that are suppressed by the brain. If you are familiar with these emotions, you don't have to worry about losing control when stimulated..."

"Oh?" Uchiha Mikoto and Itachi exchanged a look and interjected, "Did Giyuu meet new friends in the Kingdom of Water?"

Uchiha Mikoto knew how difficult it was to change this child's behavior.

But the other party did this easily, so she couldn't help but be curious about what kind of person he was.

"Yeah." Yiyong replied, "There are quite a few."

Ranmaru, Onito Suigetsu, and counting Sanwei and Slug Great Immortal, there are indeed quite a few.

"Then who told you to do this?"

Mikoto leaned down and pointed at her eyes, "It sounds like he is an elder who knows a lot about Sharingan and is very wise."

"No." Yiyong corrected him, "There's nothing wrong with the fact that he's the same age as me, but he's very smart. He's indeed much smarter than me."

The physical age of the resurrected Zhu was exactly the same as his.

"Really?" Mikoto seemed to smell something special, her eyes flickering brightly and lively.

After all, over the years, the only person who could be praised by Giyuu as "better than me" was the young man named Purgatory Anjuro.

Mikoto's gossip fire began to burn.

"Is it a boy or a girl?"

"Girls."

"Hmm~" A faint smile appeared on Uchiha Mikoto's face. Remembering the girl who Giyu said "want to have a good communication" last time, this must be the second time.

The mother, who had been worried that the child would not be compatible with the opposite sex, was finally relieved. Before yesterday, one of the things that worried her the most was that Yiyong would live alone because of his personality.

Now it seems that Zuosuke is more likely to encounter this kind of trouble.

"Can you tell me what her name is?"

"Butterfly Ninja."

Mikoto thought for a while and didn't remember that there was a ninja named Butterfly in the Kingdom of Water. "Is there a ninja in your family?"

"It's a doctor."

"So your eyes..." Mikoto pointed to the gauze on her left eye.

"Yes. After the battle with Orochimaru, I was injured and fell into a coma. At first, she bandaged me with medicine. It was not until Anjuro arrived later that she helped me heal some of my injuries."

"This is no small favor."

[He is a doctor, but not a medical ninja. Could he be an ordinary person? That would be even more valuable...]

Mikoto stood up straight with a serious look on her face and asked, "Are you getting along happily? You didn't make anyone angry, right?"

"It's not like there aren't happy times."

Giyong hesitated for a while, carefully thought about Butterfly Ninja's expression every time he communicated with him after his resurrection, and answered quite rigorously.

"But 80 percent of the time she's angry and she has to put on a smile. Once I point it out, she gets angrier."

Mikoto \u0026 Itachi \u0026 Sasuke: Why am I not surprised at all?

However, the frequency of 80% seems to be a bit too high.

[But even so, she is still willing to talk to Yiyong, she must be a very patient child. 】

While Uchiha Mikoto gave Butterfly Ninja a thumbs up, she also decided to give Giyu some necessary guidance. So she sighed and asked:

"Yiyong, do you remember what you said to make her unhappy?"

Seeing the "where do I start with this" and "too many times" look in Giyuu's eyes, Mikoto reminded her, "For example, why did you make her angry last time?"

"I remembered."

Yiyong's eyes moved to Zuosuke and said slowly: "She took away some of the little books I brought to Zuosuke. When I asked her for it, she was very unhappy, as if she thought the books were not Zuosuke's. Children of this age should watch it.”

"What! This person is so lenient."

Although they had not met, Zuosuke already had a bad feeling about Butterfly Ninja, so he complained with disgust: "She sounds like a very verbose person, and she is not me..."

Noticing the hint in Itachi's eyes, Zuosuke immediately realized something. When his voice stopped suddenly, he turned his head nervously, and sure enough he saw his mother's expression that was half-smiling but not smiling.

"So this is what Zuosuke thinks? I think my mother is very verbose."

She stretched out her hand and plucked at Zuosuke's quills, "But I think that kid is very close to me."

Most of those little books told stories about justice defeating evil, and the world of ninjas was too simple and simplistic. Therefore, the Uchiha couple never liked Zuosuke reading those books, but Giyuu liked to bring them to Zuosuke. She would buy a few books when passing by the bookstore, which made her very annoyed occasionally, but she didn't know what to say.

Now that I heard that a child who could influence volunteer behavior had similar feelings to her, I felt a little warmer.

"Then Yiyong, do you remember the most angry time she was because of?"

"..." Yiyong thought for a while, "I said at the time that there can't be anyone in the world who is more beautiful than her."

"Huh?" The other three people all snorted in confusion, unable to believe that these words came from Yiyong's mouth.

Considering that this child never tells lies, Uchiha Mikoto has begun to wonder what this girl named "Butterfly Ninja" looks like.

However, this kind of obvious compliment should not anger the other party, right?

Just when they were wondering, Yiyong added: "Because no one who is more beautiful than her is alive anymore."

Itachi and Sasuke suddenly understood, while Mikoto held her forehead with her right hand worriedly. She could fully understand the psychological gap that the person who heard these words experienced in just a few seconds.

But when she thought that she had found a copy of "The Art of Speaking" in the bookstore during Yiyong's absence, she didn't feel too desperate.

[I hope this book will not lead this child astray like the previous one...]

"If you have the chance in the future, please invite people to our home, right?"

Out of caution, Uchiha Mikoto asked again: "The rest of her family should have nothing to do with Kirigakure Village, right?"

In that case, it would be impossible to come to Konoha as a guest.

"No." Yiyong shook his head, "Her parents and sister have been dead for many years."

"..." This time, even Zuosuke didn't secretly complain about the other party.

"What a poor child." Uchiha Mikoto showed pity on her face, "Still living in that kind of place..."

[Since he saved Giyu’s life, Fugaku shouldn’t have any objections even if he lives in our house, right? 】

Just when she wanted to ask a few more questions about the Butterfly Ninja, Uchiha Fugaku changed back into his regular clothes and walked out of the backyard with a straight face.

As a father, he was naturally happy for the reunion of his family; but as a clan leader, yesterday's events and the clan's future were all weighing heavily on him, and he felt heavy inside when he thought about it.

"I have burned all the Sharingan recovered from Orochimaru and Danzo."

Fugaku walked to his family and said in a deep voice: "In addition, I have discussed with Tiehuo and Daohuo that in the future, in order to prevent the corpses of the clan members from being desecrated, the dead clan members can be directly cremated on the spot."

Yesterday when Danzo used Yin Zhenaki, the Kumo ninja representative was still awake.

Kumo Ninja will definitely be resentful after so many people died in Giyuu's hands this time. I'm afraid it won't be long before the half-true and half-false rumors like "Uchiha Sharingan can resurrect the dead" will spread throughout the ninja world. .

At that time, not to mention the ninjas of the two countries, even the bounty hunters who live by exchanging gold will put the Uchiha ninjas at the top of their list.

Thinking of this, Fugaku pinched the bridge of his nose.

Now there are many voices in the clan asking to leave Konoha.

But if Uchiha really breaks away from this behemoth, can he really survive in the face of such coveted eyes from all the ninja world?

I'm afraid that when that day comes, it's not necessarily that Konoha is the first one to want Uchiha's demise - the clan that founded the village has left the village, which is a stain that cannot be washed away.

"Let's go home first, there's no point in thinking about it now."

Mikoto stepped forward and held Fugaku's wrist, suddenly realizing that he had gained so much weight recently.

"Let's wait until the Third Hokage comes back and see their attitude before discussing the clan's future with the clan."

"That's all it has now."

As Fugaku spoke, his dissatisfied gaze swept over the faces of his three sons, especially Itachi and Giyuu.

“In addition, the tribe is still waiting for me to explain to them why Yan Huo, who died in the Land of Rain, had his eyes in the hands of Shimura Danzo?

"What else didn't you two tell me about that incident back then? Huh, even the birth of water-type chakra has been hidden from me, a father, for so many years. Thinking about it makes me feel annoyed..."

"Don't say such things here."

Uchiha Mikoto pushed him with a stiff smile that eased the atmosphere, and then looked at Giyuu: "I will explain it to my father immediately when I get home. Do you understand Giyuu?"

Just when Giyuu wanted to respond, he saw Fugaku touching his belly and said angrily: "Let him cook, it's enough for Itachi to explain to me! These things that are hidden from me are all ninjas who think on their knees." That set must have been his idea!"

The corners of the mouths of the other three people twitched slightly, [After talking so much, you just want to eat the food cooked by Yiyong? right? 】

"Is there anything you want to eat in particular?" Uchiha Mikoto asked Fugaku.

But it was Sasuke who answered first.

He raised his hand and said loudly: "I want to eat the fried shrimp tail with special dipping sauce from last time!"

"Me," Fugaku seemed to have prepared his answer a long time ago, but said as if he had just thought of it, "it's simple, just make fried pork chops and fried dumplings, you can make more."

"No, if you continue to eat fried food like this at your current weight, you will have no choice but to become the leader of the Akimichi clan."

Uchiha Mikoto raised objections and planned to win the chef's support. "Yiyong, do you think dad has become very fat during this period?"

She looked like she was expecting something, and Yiyong thought about it for a while, and she was not disappointed.

"Hmm. He looks just like the guy on the pig feed billboard now..."

"Pfft." Except for Fugaku and Giyuu, the other three people puffed out their cheeks and covered their mouths, their bodies shaking violently.

It wasn't until the family walked out of the Uchiha realm that the long-suffering laughter finally broke out. Even Uchiha Fugaku couldn't help but laugh along with him, leaving only Giyuu walking at the back with a confused look on his face.
