Naruto: Uchiha is not Raikage!

As dawn broke, Uzuki Yugao quietly left the place.

She arrived at Moonlight Gale's house.

The two have known each other for many years, and in order to take care of Gekko Hayate, Uzuki Yugao also has a key to this place.

The room was quiet, with only the soft breathing of the moonlight and the wind echoing in the bedroom.

She loved Gale.

For him, she could grit her teeth and endure the poorest days, tolerate the gossip in the village, and humble herself in front of others.

But tonight, in front of Qing Si, she almost took that step.

But it wasn't for love, but for a debt of gratitude that could never be repaid.

Thinking of this, her eyes welled up with tears.

Moonlight Gale coughed twice in his sleep.

Uzuki Yugao quickly stepped forward and gently tucked the blanket around him.

Next, Uzuki Yugao used the medicine that Kiyoshi had given her to brew.

These medicines need to be diluted with water while the temperature is raised.

Once the medicine was ready, Uzuki Yugao placed it in a bowl.

"blast."

Uzuki Yugao held the medicine bowl and gently blew on the steam rising from its rim.

Moonlight Gale leaned against the couch, his face still somewhat pale, but he appeared much more energetic due to the effects of the medicine.

He looked up at her, a look of emotion flashing in his eyes.

"Xiyan, you look a little tired."

The moonlight and the gentle breeze whispered.

Uzuki Yugao paused for a moment, then smiled.

"It's nothing... I just didn't sleep very well last night."

Uzuki Yugao trembled slightly, but managed to force a smile.

"Don't overwork yourself next time."

Gekko Hayate thought that Uzuki Yugao had carried out some difficult mission and had expended a lot of energy.

At the same time, he was thinking to himself.

If he ever recovers, he must give Xiyan an explanation.

……

Another part of Konoha.

"Uncle Minato, was that move you used called... Uzumaki Maru?"

Naruto, wearing his family crest with a red spiral pattern printed on the back, looked up at Minato Namikaze.

"It's the 'Rasengan'."

Minato Namikaze corrected the mistake in Naruto's words.

"Ah, yes, yes, that's it. Could you teach me how to use it?"

Naruto spoke excitedly.

He had heard that this move was particularly powerful.

Recently, while he was playing, he accidentally met a cocky kid who was about his age.

They're just as good as me, yet they act all high and mighty.

Naruto learned that the guy's name was Uchiha Sasuke.

He wanted to quickly learn a particularly powerful ninjutsu so he could show it off to Sasuke.

"Hmm... Naruto, you can't learn this ninjutsu yet."

Minato Namikaze spoke up.

He looked at Naruto, who had a few whiskers on his face, and felt extremely sad.

How could a normal person have such a fox-like beard?

This is clearly influenced by the Nine-Tails' chakra, just like Kinkaku and Ginkaku of Kumogakure, who also have such fox whiskers and hair.

Naruto's actions almost clearly reveal his true identity.

It can only be Kushina's child.

A long time ago, Minato Namikaze noticed that Kushina rarely went out.

For a period of time, she suddenly started taking care of the child.

At first, Minato Namikaze, seeing that black hair, thought it was an adopted child.

But the closer I get, the more heartbroken I become.

The car he was reluctant to drive had already been glared at by someone without his knowledge.

There are children!
Minato Namikaze also asked Kushina who the child's father was.

However, Kushina hesitated and didn't say anything.

Seeing Kushina's troubled expression, Minato Namikaze couldn't bear to continue pressuring her.

He has a very kind nature.

If someone were to kill his wife one day, he might forgive the perpetrator.

Therefore, Minato Namikaze believed that Kushina was young, immature, and impulsive.

So, out of love for Naruto, he treated Naruto like his own child, taking him out whenever he had the chance, hoping to train him to become a great ninja.

Although he has no bloodline connection to the lineage, he can allow Naruto to inherit his spirit.

This can be considered a form of support.

"Is there anything else I can learn?"

"Let me think about it."

Minato Namikaze gestured to Naruto not to rush, then fell into deep thought.

To be honest, he was genuinely curious about who Naruto's biological father was.

Because Naruto has exceptional talent, he learns everything very quickly.

His biggest flaw is that he's a bit impulsive.

However, these things can be changed later in life, but a person's talent is often determined at birth, and it is difficult to change anything later in life.

"I can teach you the art of shuriken handling."

Namikaze water gate.

Chakra cannot exist without the human body, so young people will not have a lot of chakra.

Similarly, when a person's chakra level is at its peak, it is also at its physiological peak.

As people age and their bodies weaken, they will gradually decline.

Now that the third generation is older, it's difficult for them to perform at the same level as when they were young and in their prime.

"What's so interesting about learning this?"

Naruto shook his head, thinking it wasn't cool enough.

He heard that the "Rasengan" could create a glowing vortex, and that's why he wanted to learn it.

"Then I'll teach you..."

After thinking for a moment, Minato Namikaze suggested a few more techniques for Naruto to choose from.

Naruto scratched his head, wondering which one he should learn.

Kushina, who was upstairs, could see what was happening below.

Kushina was also very happy to see her son getting along well with her best friend.

But what she was thinking about more was that Kiyoshi had been coming here less often lately, and she wondered what he was doing.

"Thinking about me?"

When Kushina looked distressed, Kiyoshi appeared behind her, supporting her buttocks with one hand and gently patting them.

Kushina's heart skipped a beat, and she told Kiyoshi not to do this right from the start.

"Naruto's talent is quite impressive, isn't it?"

Kiyoshi said.

In fact, Kushina was also very talented, which is why Naruto in the original work was such a genius.

In a short period of time, they were able to develop S-rank ninjutsu and learn "Sage Mode".

Now, he has replaced Minato Namikaze as Naruto's biological father.

His genetic makeup is only superior to that of Minato Namikaze.

Theoretically speaking, Naruto would possess talent surpassing that of the original story.

The reason Naruto only unleashed his full power later on was because the Nine-Tails was interfering with him.

This makes it difficult for Naruto to properly gather and control chakra, making him appear quite weak.

These troubles only ended after he reconciled with Kurama (the Nine-Tails).

Naruto's impatient personality was likely influenced by Ashura's chakra.

Uzumaki Menma, also known as Naruto from another world, is the calm and collected analytical genius.

"They learn things quite quickly."

Kushina nodded.

"What about his bloodline limit?"

Kiyoshi said.

Naruto now possesses the bloodlines of both the Uzumaki and Uchiha clans.

Furthermore, Ashura's soul has been added. With these enhancements, Naruto is very likely to awaken the Sharingan.

Kiyoshi was very curious about what would happen if Naruto had the Sharingan and awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.

What kind of eye technique does he possess?
"It hasn't manifested yet."

Kushina's face flushed slightly, and she gently leaned against Kiyoshi's chest, causing him to stop his hand seals.

"Yeah."

The Qing official remained silent.

Naruto has only demonstrated his fast learning speed and large chakra reserves so far.

Those with bloodlines like Yotsuki, Uchiha, and Uzumaki actually have quite a lot of chakra.

We'll have to continue observing for a while to find out what kind of bloodline limit Naruto will awaken.

Kiyoshi looked at Kushina's fair face and lowered his head to kiss her.

Kushina's breathing gradually became rapid.

Her eyes also became moist.

After a while, their lips parted.

Qingsi continued:
"By the way, I need to extract some of the Nine-Tails' chakra."

"Extracting the Nine-Tails' chakra?"

Kushina's mind was still a little hazy as she licked her still-moist lips.

"I'm useful."

Kiyoshi said.

Just as Madara and Obito used the chakra of the Gedo Mazo to cultivate White Zetsu, Kiyoshi also wanted to use the Nine-Tails' chakra to try to cultivate a flesh and blood seedbed.

They use that chakra as nourishment to maintain the vitality of their flesh and blood.

It's like watering a plant; you have to water it regularly for it to grow stronger and healthier.

After Kushina nodded, Kiyoshi entered Kushina's mental space.

Bound by sealing techniques such as the "Tail-Sealing Seal," the Nine-Tails glared at Kiyoshi with hatred.

"I'll help Kushina collect part of the rent. I don't think you'll mind."

Qingsi said calmly.

"Humph!"

The Nine-Tails glared at Kiyoshi, its massive body trembling and causing the chains to creak.

Suddenly, he stared at Kiyoshi with suspicion and uncertainty.

He sensed an aura of extreme fear emanating from Kiyoshi.

That wasn't emanating from Kiyoshi.

It smelled more like Kiyoshi had picked up some kind of odor.

what is that?
Nine-Tailed Fox felt this was very familiar.

There's a sense of shared origin.

Before Kurama could react, he felt his chakra being drained.

Kushina was seen continuously drawing chakra from him and then giving that chakra to Kiyoshi.

Jinchuriki can forcibly extract the chakra of tailed beasts!

The "Nine-Tails Chakra Mode" was also created based on this principle.

"enough."

The outside world's Kiyoshi had already taken out a scroll and sealed this portion of chakra away.

He was considering whether to split the Nine-Tails in half, then erase the will of the other half, creating a place where pure chakra could gather.

In this way, the flesh and blood seedbed has a continuous supply of chakra.

"However, there isn't enough natural energy."

Kiyoshi stroked his chin.

The essence of the Tailed Beasts is chakra; they were created by the Sage of Six Paths using the "Yin-Yang Release Technique".

It can also be described as a kind of pure energy mimicry organism, so it still has the appearance, flesh and blood and other structures of a living organism.

But when their chakra decreases, they also shrink.

For example, when half of the Nine-Tails' chakra was taken away, its entire body shrank considerably.

Therefore, they have no lifespan limit and can live forever if they are not killed.

Even if they are killed, they can be resurrected after a period of time and grow back from their young age.

In other words... immortal and indestructible.

However, their immortality is not without its limitations.

Ultimately, the power of the tailed beasts originates from the Ten-Tails.

The Ten-Tails can be said to be the same as the earth, water, and air we usually feel; it is the natural energy circulating in this world.

When Kurama asked Naruto to use "Sage Mode" to sense the Ten-Tails, he broke out in a cold sweat.

In his perception, there was only an incredibly large aggregate of natural energy.

Therefore, the principle behind the resurrection of the Nine-Tails is actually natural energy.

After continuous cycles, chakra accumulates to a certain degree and then condenses into a physical form.

During this period, natural energy was transformed into tailed beast chakra.

Because in addition to absorbing natural energy, the Ten-Tails also absorbs the chakra of all living organisms on this planet and records their biological genetic information.

Therefore, after Kaguya Otsutsuki ate the "Chakra Fruit", she gained the "Rinne Sharingan".

The Sharingan is something that the Otsutsuki clan does not possess; it originates from the Ten-Tails.

……

Time flew by, and the day arrived that Kiyoshi officially succeeded as Hokage.

On the high platform, Kiyoshi stood on the rooftop of the Hokage Building.

With the final step of the succession ceremony completed, Hiruzen Sarutobi slowly retreated to the back, truly handing over the position of Hokage to him.

Wearing the Fourth Hokage's exclusive divine robe, Kiyoshi slowly walked to the railing.

The brim of the Hokage's hat cast a faint shadow in the sunlight, making his facial features appear even more handsome.

Below the stage, a dense crowd gathered, forming a black sea.

Almost all the ninjas and ordinary people came out to look at the new Hokage on the high platform, some with eagerness, some with doubt, and some with complicated emotions.

If Kiyoshi wanted, he could sense the heart rate, chakra flow, and so on of this group of people in an instant.

Kiyoshi looked down and could see many familiar faces.

Nohara Rin, holding Nohara Mio's hand, and Tsunade, arms crossed, looking proud.

There's also Kurenai Yuhi, who's eating three-colored dumplings with Mitarashi Anko.

Kiyoshi could still see Kushina and Mikoto talking about something.

The young Naruto and Sasuke showed signs of not getting along even at a young age.

Itachi, holding Sasuke's hand, smiled helplessly.

Besides them, the most enthusiastic and proud people in the audience were undoubtedly the Uchiha clan.

Their eyes were no longer gloomy, but burning with a fervent light.

The Uchiha clan finally triumphed, breaking free from their long-standing constraints.

After Kiyoshi became Hokage, no one dared to marginalize or subject the Uchiha clan to passive-aggressive treatment anymore.

The Hyuga clan members also looked quite well.

Hiashi stood calmly among the crowd with Hinata and the others.

They had a close relationship with Kiyoshi before, and now that the position of Hokage has fallen to him, it is also a good thing for the Hyuga clan.

Kiyoshi scanned the familiar faces one by one, finally stopping on a few people with complicated expressions and poor complexion.

Those people were people who had supported Orochimaru in the past.

In other words, it's about taking the wrong political side.

Sunlight streamed down, illuminating Kiyoshi's handsome face, which carried an almost radiant composure.

"From this day forward, I will protect Konoha as the Fourth Hokage."

As Kiyoshi spoke, the atmosphere reached its climax.

"I never thought that Kiyoshi would actually become Hokage."

Sarutobi Asuma had a cigarette dangling from his mouth. Ever since he was overcome with homesickness in Tanabata, he had asked the Daimyo for leave.

It just so happens that this period is the Hokage succession ceremony, and Sarutobi Asuma is a Konoha ninja, so his leave was approved smoothly.

This festive scene, brightly decorated, is like a celebration for ordinary villagers.

But for the leaders of each ninja clan, the real test has only just begun.

The redistribution of interests, the direction of new policies, the rebalancing of power and resources...

Everyone is pondering.

After all, the Uchiha clan's ascension to the Hokage position was an unprecedented situation since the founding of Konoha.

As the event was nearing its end, Mikoto watched Kiyoshi's departing figure, a hint of red light flickering in her eyes.

The fact that they hadn't established a clear relationship made her very uneasy.

But considering the date, Mikoto still decided to ask.

"Itachi, you take Sasuke and go have some fun. I have something to do."

Mikoto spoke. (End of Chapter)
