Uchiha: Starting as Tobirama's Jinchuriki

Uchiha Setsuna stared intently at Qing Shui, muttering to himself, "I absolutely refuse to accept this! I absolutely refuse to accept this!"

From his perspective, even Uchiha Setsuna had to admit that Aozumi had taken a different approach to secure a future for the Uchiha clan, and had been quite successful.

But the problem is—

Who will pay for the suffering he, Uchiha Setsuna, endured, and the rage of being imprisoned in a dark and hopeless prison for over twenty years?

Uchiha Setsuna's eyes went mad. The Senju Tobirama he hated was dead, so his disciples and descendants would be punished!

But he knew his own limitations…

At that moment, Uchiha Setsuna thought of Uchiha Obito, the hawkish successor he had his eye on.

"Playing power games is pointless!"

Uchiha Setsuna gritted his teeth and whispered, "Gaining love, losing love, Obito, I will find a way to make you my blade..."

"A blade that kills everything!"

Qing Shui and his group walked slowly, gradually reaching the edge of the barrier.

According to the original plan, Kushina and Tsunade should have stopped here, and the rest of the way should have been left to Aokiji and Hiruzen Sarutobi.

But as Kushina sensed the extreme stillness of the Nine-Tails, a strange desire inexplicably ignited within her—

She recalled Danzo Shimura's words back then, using the cold term "Nine-Tails Jinchuriki" to describe her...

If she can control herself and step out of this barrier, will she be able to gain the village's approval?

Kushina increasingly longed to be called by her name, like Mito Uzumaki, instead of being called the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

What she didn't know was that Kurama, with its eyes narrowed, was subtly releasing chakra, stirring Kushina's emotions.

As a new vessel, Kushina has already been defeated in her battle against Kurama.

"Lord Sandai, I can do it. Let me finish this journey!"

Under everyone's gaze, Kushina did not lower the coffin as planned, but instead spoke firmly in a low voice.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was startled, but this was an occasion that did not allow for stopping, nor could he casually put down the coffin.

At this moment, Aozumi said softly, "Trust Kushina, Uncle Hiruzen..."

Aozumi keenly sensed that something was wrong with Kushina's emotions. Given Kushina's intelligence, she shouldn't have changed the agreed-upon itinerary and the important occasion on a whim.

The reason behind that is quite obvious...

Only the Nine-Tailed Fox!

Coincidentally, not only does the Nine-Tailed Fox harbor murderous intent towards Qing Shui, but Qing Shui also misses this fluffy big fox.

The third-ranked player has been removed from the leaderboard, so someone needs to be found to replace him, right?

One beast isn't out of the question...

Aokiji and Kushina did not let go, and Hiruzen Sarutobi and Tsunade could only continue walking step by step towards the outside of the barrier, following their original pace.

The moment Kushina stepped out of the barrier, the Nine-Tails' vertical pupils suddenly stood up and began to frantically attack the seal within Kushina's body!

"What do you think you are, a container!"

"You can never leave this barrier in your entire life; you can only die here alone!"

"Everyone is lying to you, everyone is using you, haven't you noticed? Your so-called companions, the village's leaders, have even forgotten your name, and only refer to you as a vessel!"

"Hurry up, break this seal quickly, so that I can free you from your suffering!"

The Nine-Tails' voice was extremely loud and highly seductive, instantly captivating Kushina's mind!

Strands of orange-red chakra emanated slightly from Kushina's body, and her hand, which was supporting the coffin, began to tremble slightly!

Hiruzen Sarutobi was startled, and Tsunade quickly realized that something was wrong!

The Nine-Tails' chakra is simply too conspicuous; even the slightest leak at this distance would be incredibly noticeable!

But what should we do then?

The original intention was to give Kushina a chance to shine, but this has backfired spectacularly...

Especially near Mito Uzumaki's coffin, if anything goes wrong, it will be an extremely serious matter!

at this time.

A crimson tinge appeared in Qing Shui's eyes. He turned his head slightly and caught Kushina's bewildered gaze out of the corner of his eye!

In an instant, Kushina's already lost heart was taken over by her eye power, her eyes turned into tomoe, and the Nine-Tails chakra on her body was quickly drawn back into her body.

"Uncle Hiruzen, Teacher Tsunade, I'm going to talk to Kurama..."

Qing Shui said softly, "Everything will proceed as usual. I can control the situation."

Hiruzen Sarutobi felt a sense of relief. If something had gone wrong in this situation, even he, as the Hokage, wouldn't have known what to do. He thought to himself:

"As expected of Konoha's second Nine-Tails, Tobirama-sensei!"

"Your forbidden technique has truly created new hope for Konoha..."

Meanwhile, in Kushina's inner world, she was struggling against the Nine-Tails, and the figure of Aoshui slowly emerged.

As soon as Kushina met Aoshui's eyes, her vision went black for no apparent reason, and she squatted down on the spot.

Qing Shui looked at the nine-tailed fox in front of it, a smug smile that it recognized all too well, and said softly:

"Nine-Tails, we meet again. Do you still recognize me?"

Nine-Tailed Fox's pupils suddenly contracted. At this moment, it felt Qing Shui's extremely solid and familiar pupil power up close, and the fear it once had returned to its heart in an instant!

This is not conjecture, nor is it a misperception!

The fact that the blue water originated from Madara Uchiha's bloodline and Izuna's eye power confirmed Kurama's certainty.

Qingshui is definitely the reincarnation of Uchiha Madara's chakra, or a descendant!

"Who are you, kid? Tell me who you are!"

The Nine-Tailed Fox roared hysterically, but under the suppression of the Azure Water Eye Power and the seal, its roar no longer possessed the bewitching magic; it was merely the barking of a powerless, defeated dog, sounding only pitiful.

"Let me introduce myself, my name is Uchiha Aokiji..."

Qing Shui activated the Nine-Tailed Fox's summoning contract, controlling its body, and said with a smile, "I am also your master."

Qing Shui's humiliating words enraged Nine-Tails, yet at the same time, an uncontrollable panic and fear welled up within her...

How did this Uchiha brat manage to forcibly establish a summoning contract with it?

As Qing Shui looked at the sealed Nine-Tails, his pupil power surged, and he forcibly manipulated the Nine-Tails into posing it in a comical manner.

"A pet should act like a pet, am I right? Nine-Tailed Fox..."

Looking at the completely bewildered Nine-Tails, Qing Shui shook his head: "I actually hope you can break free of the seal and let me become your Jinchūriki. I think we'll have a very pleasant time together..."

"I will come to see you often when I have the chance, my lovely fox."

Qing Shui and Jiuwei waved goodbye politely.

[From your target, Nine-Tails: You have gained the ability to sense good and evil!]

After the blue water disappeared, the Nine-Tailed Fox, panting heavily, lay prone on the ground.

After being frightened, Mr. Fox just wanted to lie down for a while to calm down and didn't want to cause any more trouble for the time being.

He forgot his previous boasts and wisely suppressed his wild beastly nature.

It wondered, what exactly was the origin of Qing Shui…

Is Madara Uchiha a reincarnation of his chakra?

It doesn't seem like it. Qing Shui's words were too polite; he didn't even use the word "beast" to describe him!

Are they descendants of Madara Uchiha?

It seems like this is the only possibility, but whose child was it with?

Nine-Tails fell into deep thought—

Meanwhile, outside, Qingshui and the others had already arrived at the prepared tomb and were giving Mito Uzumaki a final burial.

Handfuls of yellow earth filled the grave, and a sturdy tombstone stood atop it, recounting the life of Mito Uzumaki.

The burial ceremony was now complete.

Hiruzen Sarutobi and Aokiji stood to the side, watching as one Konoha ninja after another walked over, saying their goodbyes.

"Qingshui, thanks to you..."

"Uncle Hiruzen, this is what I should do."

Madara Uchiha watched this scene, but shook his head with a smile.

At first, he found Mito Uzumaki's scheme to win people over somewhat difficult.

Qingshui is still a child after all. Will such high-level treatment make him lose his way?

But it wasn't until Kushina lost control that Madara Uchiha clearly saw that eye power was almost identical to his own when he was young!

That kind of arrogant, domineering, and powerful eye power!

Similar to Izuna, but at that moment, Madara Uchiha felt that Aoshimi was more like him!

Madara Uchiha would never believe that someone with such eye power would linger in the mediocre village of Konoha…

Minato Namikaze, Jiraiya, Orochimaru...

These ninjas, each burdened with their own concerns, had their own reasons for Qingshui's current treatment, and were also pondering the future of the ninja world, the village, and themselves.

But there was one hothead who found Hiruzen Sarutobi right after the funeral, still with a face full of anger.

Danzo Shimura slammed his fist on the Hokage's office desk and roared:

"Hiruzen, what were your arrangements? Why was Uchiha Aokiji allowed to carry Mito-sama's coffin, and why didn't you consult me?"

"Do you even see me as someone who serves as your Hokage's assistant?!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at him, slowly took out his pipe, took a puff, exhaled a long plume of smoke, and after a moment said coldly:

"What, you're not convinced?"
