Naruto: Uchiha is not Raikage!

Chapter 255 First Visit to Mikoto's House

Fugaku listened to the condemnations of his clansmen but did not offer any explanation.

Because what they said was true.

If I hadn't awakened the "Mangekyou Sharingan," I wouldn't be tormented by my conscience.

Now, as the clan leader, he possesses the power to save the other clan members, yet he has not done so.

why?
For the Uchiha.

Fugaku thought about this heavily, and he comforted himself that this was not weakness, but rather a way to make the most of his strength.

"Please calm down, everyone. Fugaku is the clan head elected by everyone."

Seeing the crowd's agitation, Mikoto said some good words for Fugaku.

She knew that Fugaku had awakened the "Mangekyou Sharingan," but the price of using it was blindness!

But I can't say that out loud.

Doesn't this imply that weakened eyesight is less valuable than the lives of our fellow countrymen?
The choice between upholding justice and prioritizing family ties is incredibly difficult at this moment.

However, the public's anger had not subsided, and the resentment was soon directed at Mikoto.

"Everyone just wants to know if Captain Fugaku has awakened the Kaleidoscope Sharingan, can't we even ask?"

Uchiha Kawara said, forcing himself to speak.

He had to figure this out; it concerned Lord Danzo's scheme.

The recent uproar was partly due to his instigation.

Lord Danzo had already spread these rumors far and wide; he was merely igniting them now.

Hearing this, Mikoto didn't know how to refute it.

It would be fine if Fugaku were just an ordinary Uchiha, but his position as clan leader carried a heavy responsibility.

"Hmph, whether it's true or not, Fugaku, you know best."

Uchiha Setsuna slowly opened his mouth.

When he was young, he was impetuous and dared to organize his clan to rebel against the Second Hokage. He is still impetuous now that he is old, but he is not as thoughtless as he was when he was young.

“In my opinion, we should re-elect the position of clan leader. Fugaku, it’s one thing for you to hide your strength, but it’s another thing to see whether you have brought more benefits to the clan.”

Uchiha Setsuna's attitude largely represents the attitude of the Uchiha clan's martial arts faction.

“There are ninjas from the same era as Fugaku, such as Mikoto, and so on. There are also geniuses of the new era, such as Kiyoshi.”

Uchiha Setsuna rattled off a string of names.

While the three-tomoe Sharingan is indeed rare, the Uchiha clan, in all its size, couldn't possibly have so few holders of it.

The title "Ferocious-Eyed Fugaku" was something Fugaku earned by using the Three Tomoe Jewel.

Kiyoshi is also known as "Black Flash".

For a moment, many eyes were fixed on Kiyoshi.

Kiyoshi, whose reputation has risen rapidly, is indeed very convincing within the Uchiha clan, where strength is revered.

At least at Kiyoshi's age, Fugaku was far inferior.

When Kiyoshi saw that the topic had turned to him again, he immediately said modestly that he still had a lot to do.

Fugaku remained silent.

Ultimately, the clan meeting yielded no results.

Those who support Fugaku and those who don't are arguing endlessly.

The fact that Fugaku was elected proves that he has a lot of supporters, but his support has declined somewhat recently due to public opinion issues.

After the group disbanded, Mikoto called out to Fugaku, who was about to leave with his men:
"Fugaku, perhaps we can talk."

Mikoto thought about it and decided it would be better to explain the matter clearly.

Not all members of the clan are unreasonable people.

"Captain Fugaku, there's another case."

The Eighth Hokage of Uchiha whispered a reminder.

With a weathered face, Fugaku turned to Mikoto and said apologetically:
"Next time, Mikoto."

After saying that, he hurriedly left with Yashiro and a group of his confidants.

Only Mikoto stood there, her mouth opening and closing again, but in the end, she didn't say anything.

Fugaku is a man of strong opinions.

It was only after Mikoto repeatedly begged that Fugaku revealed a little information about the kaleidoscope to her.

To this day, Mikoto doesn't even know what Fugaku's awakened eye technique is.

Isn't this kind of guarding against her a form of distrust?

Mikoto looked at the empty secret room; the fire in the brazier had long since gone out.

After she left, the sealing spell on the secret chamber automatically activated, putting the stones back in their places and covering the entrance to the secret passage.

The moon outside the Naka Shrine was very round, like a jade plate, reflecting the shimmering waters of the Naka River.

Mikoto tightened her clothes, realizing she was feeling a bit cold.

Suddenly, she felt a warmth on her body as something was draped over her.

Mikoto turned around and saw Kiyoshi.

"Qingsi, you..."

Mikoto was taken aback; how come she hadn't sensed Kiyoshi's presence?

"I chatted with Tiehuo outside for a while and found that Meiqin hadn't left yet, so I told them to go ahead and I'd wait for you."

Qingsi smiled slightly.

Gazing at Kiyoshi's profile under the moonlight, Mikoto felt a mix of emotions.

When did it start?
Fugaku began to distance himself from her.

On the contrary, Kiyoshi always kept her warm and comforted.

This has always been true, both on the battlefield and in the village.

"Don't catch a cold."

Mikoto raised her fair hand, wanting to return the clothes draped over her curvaceous body to Kiyoshi.

Kiyoshi pressed down on Mikoto's shoulder and said:
"Has Mikoto forgotten my martial arts skills? My body is very strong."

Kiyoshi stood behind Mikoto.

As they got closer, Mikoto could vaguely feel Kiyoshi's hot breath on the back of her neck.

And that physique that exudes masculinity at all times...

Mikoto suppressed the strange feeling in her heart and gently hummed in agreement.

In the afternoon, Kiyoshi's physical skills were truly amazing.

He can fight his way up to the clouds in the sky using only his physical skills.

This distance... is considered an extremely long-range technique. And it was achieved using taijutsu rather than ninjutsu.

Taijutsu ninjas have always faced some discrimination and prejudice.

Mikoto was also surprised to learn that physical skills could be so powerful.

"I'll take Mikoto back."

Qingsi suggested.

Mikoto nodded.

The two walked downstream along the Naka River.

The moon of today is not the same as it was in ancient times, yet the moon of today once shone on people of old.

As teenagers, Madara and Hashirama skipped stones on this river.

Then Konoha Village was established, ushering in a new era.

However, Hashirama was already dead, and Madara Uchiha was merely clinging to life.

Without the "Gedo Mazo" and "Izanagi", they would have only lasted a few more years before dying anyway.

Before he knew it, Kiyoshi arrived at Mikoto's residence.

"Come in and have a seat. I'll iron your clothes for you."

Kiyoshi did not refuse Mikoto's invitation.

This was his first time visiting Mikoto's house.

Unlike in the original story, Mikoto did not marry Fugaku, and naturally lived in her own home.

It was a simple-looking house, better than Kiyoshi's dilapidated house, but much smaller in area.

"Just come in."

Mikoto carefully put away Kiyoshi's clothes, holding them in her left hand while pressing her right hand against the white wall in the entryway. She slightly bent her slender waist, causing her black tight-fitting trousers to tighten instantly, revealing a full curve to her buttocks.

Before Kiyoshi could admire her for even a few more seconds, Mikoto had already taken off her ninja shoes and stepped onto the wooden board with her smooth, white feet.

Ninja shoes are designed to expose the toes and are highly breathable, allowing for the release of chakra for climbing trees and walking.

So Mikoto's feet not only didn't smell bad, but they looked like a white and tender cake.

Yes, Not Bad.

Kiyoshi subtly withdrew his gaze, took off his shoes, and walked barefoot into the inner room through the entrance hall.

……

Just as Qing Si entered, Tie Huo happened to witness this scene.

He stared in disbelief, his mouth agape, pointing in this direction, unable to utter a word.

"Why is Kiyoshi going to Mikoto's house so late at night?"

"real or fake."

Upon hearing this, Tetsuka was taken aback, just in time to see Kiyoshi Mikoto closing the door, and he could vaguely see Kiyoshi's figure.

"Isn't Mikoto-neechan very close to Lord Fugaku?"

Tetsuka stroked his chin, as if he remembered a long, long time ago that Mikoto and Fugaku had a good relationship?
But I'm not entirely sure.

In recent years, the two have had much less contact and have rarely been seen together, as they have been busy with police affairs and war matters.

"Don't spread rumors. Lord Fugaku has not admitted to it."

Inahisa patted Tetsuka's head, knowing that if the Uchiha who supported Fugaku saw this, there would inevitably be a dispute.

Besides, aren't Kiyoshi and Mikoto a generation apart in age?

Is this considered...driving a big truck?

"Hey, wait a minute, I remember there was a girl in my class named Hinata Natsu who often went to see Kiyoshi."

Tetsuka and Kiyoshi were in the same class. Tetsuka remembered Hinata Natsu and had seen her visit Kiyoshi several times.

It's important to know that outsiders rarely enter the Uchiha settlement.

"Isn't it someone named Nohara Rin?"

Rice fires are bigger than iron fires, so the two are not in the same class.

I only ever saw a girl with purple floral patterns on her face looking for Kiyoshi.

Upon hearing this, the two looked at each other in bewilderment.

Both of them could see the look of shock on the other's face.

No, you can play it like this?

The two Uchiha brothers, who had always been honest and kind, had their values ​​shaken.

One cannot help but feel a deep respect for Kiyoshi.

He can only be described as a master of time management.

It turns out that Konoha has such a great talent.

The two of them, without prior arrangement, both felt the urge to seek advice from Kiyoshi.

The two then left arm in arm, talking about which pretty girls were in the tribe.

……

In Mikoto's living room.

Kiyoshi looked around at the interior decorations, which were all simple and unpretentious, yet filled with a faint sense of warmth.

The furniture is mostly in warm colors, making the evening breeze outside feel softer.

"Is Mikoto-nee... alone?"

"My parents passed away not long after I became a Chunin."

A hint of sadness flashed in Mikoto's eyes; it was because of this that her three-tomoe Sharingan was awakened.

"Feel sorry."

“It’s okay, I’ve moved on, and they don’t want me to keep dwelling on the past.”

Mikoto shook her head, carefully folded her clothes, and said:

"The rally started earlier than usual today. Haven't eaten yet? Would you like something to eat?"

Mikoto took off her ninja vest, revealing only a black bodysuit underneath.

The black fibers outlined Mikoto's voluptuous figure, her curvaceous body exuding a gentle, flowing beauty that combined the allure of a mature woman with the firmness of a young girl, making it hard to look away.

More importantly, the restrained gentleness between Mikoto's brows makes it difficult for anyone to feel any sense of disrespect.

Kiyoshi's pupil power rippled once more.

"Thank you for your help, Mikoto-nee."

Qingsi said.

Kiyoshi couldn't refuse such an action that could bring them closer, even though he had eaten some of the dishes made by Honglian beforehand.
