However, after they came to Qiushanjun, perhaps because Qiushanjun saw that they were still young, he was not interested in them. So they wisely served Qiushanjun wholeheartedly, waiting for his eyes to turn to them.
After all, during their time with Qiu Shanjun, they had all met Qiu Shanjun's confidantes.
The Fifth Hokage Tsunade, the former clan leader's wife Mikoto Uchiha, and Yugao Uzuki, among others, were all brought into the dimension by Qiu Shanjun.
There must be quite a few more that weren't brought into the space.
Therefore, Uchiha Izumi and Uchiha Ye were very confident about their future. They believed that as long as they grew up a little more, they would definitely become Qiushan-kun's women.
But what did she see today? Uchiha Izumi had secretly snuggled into Qiushan-kun's arms—that traitor.
When Uchiha Izumi was carried to the lobby on the first floor by Qiu Shanjun, she immediately realized what was happening. Although her face was still flushed, she quickly raised her head to see if Uchiha Ye had noticed her. As a result, she met Uchiha Ye's surprised gaze as soon as she raised her head, which caught both of them off guard.
Uchiha Kakuyama paid no attention to the two little girls' little schemes. After releasing Uchiha Izumi from his arms, he let them spar a bit to get a feel for their skill level, then encouraged them before leisurely leaving the space.
Having already copied the Lightning Release Armor from the Raikage, Uchiha Kakuzan made training in the Lightning Release Armor his top priority in the days that followed.
However, this Lightning Release Armor was indeed very difficult to master, and coupled with the fact that Uchiha Kagakuzan lacked the necessary training environment for such a secret technique (the excellent geographical conditions of Kumogakure), after training for a period of time, Uchiha Kagakuzan had a better understanding of its limitations.
Even with his abundant chakra, it would take him at least two or three years to use the third stage of the Lightning Release Armor and train his physical body to the level of the Third or Fourth Raikage. Perhaps, by the time his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan has evolved into the Rinnegan, his physical body will still not be fully trained.
However, Uchiha Kagami was not in a hurry to train in the Lightning Release Armor. After all, there were still five or six years before the start of the story, and at least ten years before Kaguya Otsutsuki was resurrected.
By then, not to mention his Lightning Release Armor, we don't even know how strong he will be. He might just kidnap the newly resurrected Kaguya Otsutsuki and make her his maid.
Meanwhile, the ninja world was also in turmoil. The Hidden Cloud Village was ambushed by Uchiha Kagakuyama, who also kidnapped a Two-Tails Jinchuriki. They were searching the world for the attacker.
Of course, under Uchiha Kagami's guidance, Kumogakure set its sights on Iwagakure, since an enemy with such foundation and ability was very likely to come from one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages.
Chapter 262 Meeting with Kurenai Yuhi
Chapter 262 Meeting at Sunset Red
Given the Raikage's fiery temper and the Cloud Village's consistent practices, how could they possibly let go of the fact that their village was destroyed and the Two-Tails Jinchuriki was missing?
Therefore, there is currently a lot of friction between Kumogakure and Iwagakure, which is the most suspected village. After all, they are both militant villages, so most of the time when something happens, they are resolved by force.
In fact, the people in Kumogakure, especially the highly intelligent ones led by Samui, also had their doubts about Konoha. After all, apart from Iwagakure, which was the most suspicious, Konoha was the most powerful. Moreover, Konoha had just changed its Hokage to the hot-tempered Tsunade, while the kind-hearted Third Hokage had already stepped down.
From this perspective, Konoha Village is also a suspect. However, Konoha Village has been quite ordinary lately. Moreover, the most troublesome guy in Konoha Village has become much more obedient since he was beaten up by the Uchiha clan leader. He hasn't caused any more trouble, and even the Root has no active presence in the ninja world.
Therefore, Kumogakure did not consider Konoha as a suspect and focused its main efforts on Iwagakure. After all, Iwagakure had suddenly become active in the ninja world a few months ago, and the people who attacked Kumogakure were proficient in Earth Release techniques that only Iwagakure knew.
However, Kumogakure never expected that the reason Konoha Village didn't make any suspicious moves was because there was only one person who had invaded Kumogakure this time. Moreover, even though he had already invaded Kumogakure and kidnapped their Jinchuriki, only a handful of people in Konoha Village knew about it.
The reason why Iwagakure is acting strangely is because it had suffered the same fate as Kumogakure before. Although it did not lose its Jinchuriki, it did lose the Tsuchikage's forbidden technique scroll.
However, Iwagakure suppressed the matter. Although they were searching for suspects all over the world, they did so secretly. The reason Kumogakure found Iwagakure's actions unusual was because the people of Iwagakure also suspected that the people who came to their village to cause trouble and steal the forbidden scroll might be from Kumogakure. This was because one of the five people who attacked Kumogakure used the core secret technique of the Raikage of Kumogakure—Lightning Release Armor.
Although the Lightning Release armor used by this person is far less powerful than that of the Third and Fourth Raikage, since he is proficient in Lightning Release armor, he must have some connection with the Hidden Cloud Village.
Therefore, some people from Iwagakure launched an investigation into Kumogakure, but were suspected by the people of Kumogakure, which increased the suspicion against Iwagakure. That's why the friction between Iwagakure and Kumogakure has suddenly intensified recently.
Meanwhile, Uchiha Kakuzan, who was in Konoha Village with the Two-Tails Jinchuriki, Yugito, wandering around eating and drinking, was completely unaware of all this. Or rather, he simply didn't care.
Yugito, the Jinchuriki of the Two-Tails, was also recently released by Uchiha Kakuzan. However, she was only released to relax. When Uchiha Kakuzan was busy, she was still kept in his space, where his two maids took turns bringing her food.
It was because Uchiha Kagami had completed a stage of training in his Lightning Release Armor today that he had time to release the bored Yugito and let her sample the delicacies of Konoha Village.
However, just to be on the safe side, Uchiha Kakuzan not only sealed Yugito's chakra tightly, but also changed her appearance from a cool and aloof older sister to an ordinary person with some looks.
While Uchiha Okayama and Yukito were waiting for their takoyaki at the night market, a somewhat uncertain voice suddenly came from behind them.
"Lord Qiushan?"
Upon hearing the sound, Uchiha Kakuzan and Yugito, who was standing next to him, turned around and looked at the source of the sound.
Not far behind them, at a brightly lit stall, stood two very beautiful women. The one who called out was the most beautiful and outstanding of them all. She had a pair of gentle, wine-red eyes, a pretty face, and a curvaceous figure. In terms of both looks and figure, she was a cut above the person next to her.
Her companion, however, was looking at him with hostility, as if he had done something heinous.
Looking at Kurenai Yuhi, who looked even more alluring under the lamplight, Uchiha Kakuzan couldn't help but smile. He waved to her, signaling her to come over.
Seeing Uchiha Kagami's gesture, Kurenai hesitated for a moment, glancing at Mitarashi Anko beside her. But she made up her mind, bit her lip, and quickly walked up to Uchiha Kagami.
Originally, Kurenai didn't want to tell Anko Mitarashi about her relationship with Okayama-kun. After all, Okayama-kun had previously been the man of their best friend, Yugao Uzuki—something both she and Anko knew. Given her current relationship with Okayama-kun, it would seem as if she had stolen her best friend's man.
Perhaps only she knew in her heart that she never thought of stealing Yugao Uzuki's man; she simply wanted to become Okayama-kun's woman, even if he only paid a little attention to her.
Today, because Uzuki Yugao is pregnant, she was assigned to Tsunade's side by Uchiha Kagayasu. Therefore, the two of them, Mitarashi Anko and Yuhi Kurenai, ended up strolling together in the night market.
Only when Kurenai sees a figure from behind that haunts her dreams will she be able to cry out.
Anko Mitarashi, who was happily strolling through the streets with Kurenai Yuhi, was surprised when Kurenai called out to that damned man. And, surprisingly, after he beckoned, Kurenai happily scurried over.
The happy expression on her face was also very familiar to her. Wasn't this the same expression that Yugao had when she was talking to her best friend, Uzuki Yugao, about Uchiha Kagakusan? This discovery made Mitarashi Anko unconsciously tighten her grip on the three-colored dumplings, making a faint cracking sound.
After Kurenai came to stand in front of Okayama-kun, she kept looking at him, and her face was rosier than before, with love almost overflowing from her eyes.
Seeing Kurenai Yuhi approach, Uchiha Kakuzan smiled and said gently:
"I was planning to look for you later, but I didn't expect to run into you here,"
Then, Uchiha Kakuzan pointed to Yugito beside him and explained...
"Let me introduce you. This lady next to me is a distinguished guest from out of town. You can call her Little Cat. She's been visiting us recently, so I brought her to the night market to try some of our village's delicacies."
Chapter 263 Each Person's Decision
Chapter 263 Their Own Decisions
Uchiha Kakuyama then looked at Yugito and introduced her...
"This is my girlfriend, Kurenai Yuhi."
Yugito, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard Uchiha Kakuzan's introduction.
You're the kitten, your whole family are kittens. I'm the famous Two-Tails Jinchuriki. Although the Two-Tails looks a bit like a cat, isn't your introduction a bit offensive?
However, Yugito only muttered to herself that she couldn't beat this man, so after Uchiha Kakuyama finished his introduction, she still smiled and greeted the beautiful woman in front of her.
Looking at the tall woman in front of her, and then glancing at the various snacks on her hands and the sauce on her lips, Yuhi Kurenai secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In her opinion, this woman was not only less attractive, but also a glutton. There was little chance that Qiushan-kun would be interested in her, so she smiled and responded to her.
After introducing the two, Uchiha Kakuyama noticed Mitarashi Anko gritting her teeth not far away, but he didn't seem to care much about her. He then said:
“Hong, since we’ve run into each other, let’s go for a walk together. That way, I won’t have to look for you again later.”
Hearing Qiu Shanjun's words, Yuhi Kurenai was also very moved. After all, she really wanted to be with Qiu Shanjun. Recently, Qiu Shanjun had been busy with his cultivation and hadn't spent much time with her. She cherished the time she had with Qiu Shanjun.
Kurenai Yuhi understood that she was just one of Okayama-kun's women. Moreover, Okayama-kun was the head of the Uchiha clan and the leader of the Fifth Hokage's Anbu. He wouldn't have much time to spend with her, so she was tempted by Okayama-kun's proposal.
However, while Kurenai was attracted to him, she didn't forget her best friend Anko Mitarashi. She also knew that Anko was hostile towards Okayama-kun and that they could never get along peacefully. Therefore, the gentle Kurenai did not do anything that would make her forget her friend for the sake of love.
Kurenai tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and looked at Uchiha Kakuyama with a hint of apology and reluctance, saying, "I came out with Anko this time, so it wouldn't be right to abandon her halfway. Kakuyama-kun, why don't you spend some more time with the little cat girl? I'll come find you again tonight."
Uchiha Kakuzan wasn't too surprised by Kurenai's choice. Although he was a little disappointed, he respected her decision. Besides, the two of them would meet again that night, so it wouldn't make a difference if they didn't meet again that evening.
Uchiha Kakuyama glanced at Mitarashi Anko, who was glaring at him angrily. Knowing she was still holding a grudge because of what he'd done to her last time, and not wanting to put Kurenai in a difficult position, he nodded and said...
"Alright, have fun then, see you tonight."
Kurenai noticed that Kyuuyama seemed a little unhappy. After nodding to Yugito beside her, she seemed to have made up her mind, suddenly stepped forward and hugged Kyuuyama, kissed him on the cheek, and then turned and ran away in a hurry.
Uchiha Kakuyama never expected that Kurenai Yuhi, who was already easily embarrassed, would pull this stunt. After watching her run away in a panic, he couldn't help but smile and said to Yugito, who was eating takoyaki and watching the show with great interest, "Come on, little cat, we finally got out, I'll take you for a walk."
With that, Uchiha Kakuyama took the lead, preparing to take Yugito to the yakiniku restaurant run by the Akimichi clan to try their new specialty yakiniku.
When Yugito heard Uchiha Kazuyama still calling her "kitten," she rolled her eyes, waved the takoyaki in her hand behind Kazuyama a couple of times, and then scurried over. There was nothing she could do; although Kazuyama called her "kitten," the Konoha delicacies he introduced were indeed very delicious. For the sake of these foods, Yugito decided to forgive his rude behavior for now.
As Yugito happily followed Uchiha Kakuyama, Kurenai Yuhi blushed and returned to Anko's place.
After quickly finishing a string of three-colored meatballs with red beans, Yuhi Kurenai eagerly asked upon her return:
"Kurenai, how did you end up with Uchiha Kakuyama? Don't you know he's Yugao's man? And a womanizer at that. Yugao has been avoiding me because of him, and I haven't seen her in a long time."
Kurenai looked at the indignant Anko, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Actually, Yugao didn't mean to avoid you. It's just that she's pregnant, and for her safety, Lord Qiushan arranged for her to stay with the Hokage."
Upon hearing Kurenai's words, Mitarashi Anko forgot all about eating her dumplings and stared at Kurenai in astonishment, stammering, "Yugao, Yugao is pregnant? That Uchiha Okayama girl?"
Kurenai nodded. "Of course it's Okayama-kun's. Yugao is braver than me; once she sets her mind on something, she'll do it according to her own will. Besides, Okayama-kun is the head of the Uchiha clan and has the means to keep several mistresses."
Although Anko didn't understand Yugao's decision, she couldn't say anything. After all, she was about to give birth, and it was too late to say anything now. However, she still felt it was a pity. Yugao was already a Jonin at such a young age and should have a bright future. But everyone has their own ambitions, and Yugao had already made her decision. Anko couldn't stop her even if she wanted to.
After digesting the news of her friend's pregnancy, Hongdou looked at Xi Ri Hong and said, "You're still the best. Although you also ended up with that womanizer, at least you didn't pin your future on that unreliable man. If a man like that could be trusted, pigs would fly."
When Yuhi Kurenai heard Hongdou's praise, she didn't refute it. If she told Hongdou now that she had the same idea as Yugao, Hongdou would probably jump up immediately and strongly oppose her decision. Oh well, she'll tell her when she gets pregnant.
Hongdou was unaware that her best friend was always ready to betray her. After angrily complaining about Uzuki Yugao, who was a womanizer, she had a string of dumplings in her mouth and dragged Yuhi Kurenai to go shopping.
After Uchiha Kakuzan finished eating barbecue with Yugito and packed some for the maids, he led the stuffed Yugito, who was carrying many bags, back into the space.
Yugito knew very well that Uchiha Kakuzan wouldn't have much time to accompany her to the Konoha Night Market again, which is why she ate so much this time and packed up many local delicacies. She was prepared to stay in the space for a long time.
Chapter 264 Mikoto and the Child
Chapter 264 Sister Mikoto and the Child
Time passed by unnoticed, and in the blink of an eye, the leaves of the sycamore trees in the ninja academy had almost all fallen off.
Unlike usual, Sasuke, who had already finished school, did not rush home after class. Instead, he listlessly packed his things and then slowly left the classroom.
Naruto, who was waiting for him at the classroom door, was already getting impatient and urged:
"Sasuke, Sasuke, it's gone, it's gone, it's almost gone."
With Naruto was Karin Uzumaki, a girl with long red hair and full of energy. After arriving in Konoha, she gradually regained her childlike nature and was no longer as timid and shy as before.
Sasuke felt somewhat helpless at Naruto's calls, but since he had chosen his own partner, he had no choice but to accept it and walked out of the school with him, carrying his schoolbag.
When the three of them walked out of the school, there were very few students left. Naruto Uzumaki looked at the warm sunset and said helplessly, "Sasuke, you idiot, you're so slow. All the other students are already home."
Then, Naruto asked curiously, "Sasuke, what's wrong with you these past few days? You've been coming home so late every time. Doesn't Aunt Mikoto say anything to you? If it weren't for Karin vouching for me and saying I didn't go out to play around, Aunt Karin would have scolded me."
Karin, who was walking with them, didn't say anything, but she also looked at Sasuke. The three of them studied together and went home together every day, and Karin was quite concerned about Sasuke.
Sasuke, seeing that even the oblivious Naruto had noticed something amiss, said with a hint of exasperation:
"Right now, it's just me and my maid at home. My father and brother have both gone out on missions and haven't been back for a long time. If my master hadn't assured me they were safe, I would have been worried something might have happened to them."
My mother's due date is approaching, and she'll be giving birth to my younger brother and sister soon, so my master sent her to the clan's ancestral home these past few days. There's no one at home, so I don't really want to go back.
Upon hearing Sasuke's words, Naruto nodded in sudden understanding, scratching the back of his head and grinning foolishly.
"I knew it! We were worried for nothing. It's great that you have the ramen uncle as your mentor; he must be very skilled."
Karin Uzumaki, who had been listening in, nodded in agreement when she heard Naruto's words. She would never forget how Uncle Okayama had rescued her and her mother from that hopeless little village.
Hearing Naruto's envy of his master, Sasuke became excited and proudly raised his head, saying, "Of course! My master is the number one expert in our Uchiha clan, and now he is the clan leader. He is a strongman who led our Uchiha clan out of difficulties and to greater glory."
