Uchiha: Starting as Tobirama's Jinchuriki

Seeing the red light in Uchiha Setsuna's eyes, his two-tomoe Sharingan seemed to respond and slowly began to rotate.

This was the first time, besides Rin Nohara, that someone cared about him so much…

In Obito Uchiha's past life, he could not be considered a failure, but among his peers in the Uchiha clan, he was only considered to have average talent. Without connections or background, he was like a transparent person in the Uchiha clan, a powerful clan.

But today, the clan chief and elders, whom he only knew by name before, showed him kindness and care, and even comforted him throughout the night.

Obito Uchiha had also considered that the attention he was receiving wasn't out of genuine affection, but simply because of his talent…

But Uchiha Setsuna keenly caught this point, and with a performance that subtly brought tears to his eyes, he told him about the current difficulties of the clan that prevented him from paying attention to him in time. He humbly apologized to a clansman who was not yet a ninja, as a clan elder.

This old-fashioned yet mature and sophisticated tactic easily won over Obito Uchiha's mind. Now, Obito's intelligence is no match for Setsuna Uchiha's manipulation, and his clear yet foolish heart has been completely bought off.

In particular, Uchiha Setsuna even used her eye power to subtly adjust Uchiha Obito's emotions.

"Clan Head Fugaku, Elder Setsuna, thank you for your care. I will never let the clan down and will strive to train to restore the reputation of the Sharingan!"

Obito Uchiha clenched his fists, tears welling in his eyes, his heart filled with lofty ambitions.

It was as if he had become the pillar of the Uchiha clan, easily defeating Aokiji with his absolute eye power, succeeding as the Uchiha clan leader, changing the status quo of the clan, marrying Rin Nohara, and reaching the pinnacle of life!

"Good child, just focus on your cultivation. If you have any difficulties or confusion in your cultivation, come to me anytime."

"As for Uchiha Aokiji, he is merely the descendant of a traitor who went astray and defected to the enemy. He may seem stronger than you for now, but in reality, he has exhausted his potential and has no future to speak of!"

Setsuna Uchiha looked with satisfaction at the desire in Obito Uchiha's eyes, then led him into the clan's secret room and began to make a great selection.

However, Fugaku Uchiha, the clan leader, watched this scene with worry in his eyes.

Although he was not yet thirty years old and had succeeded as the clan leader, he did not have much influence within the Uchiha clan and needed the help of the senior Uchiha Setsuna to establish himself.

But in reality, Fugaku Uchiha was not a hawk; he still wanted to repair relations with Konoha and find a way to coexist.

In the original timeline, Fugaku Uchiha struggled with the idea of ​​rebellion for nearly twenty years. He only tried to rebel when he had no other choice, but was betrayed by his own son. His indecisiveness led him to commit suicide.

Uchiha Setsuna's description of Aozuki as a "descendant of a traitor" was clearly a veiled reference to Uchiha Kagami, which greatly displeased Uchiha Fugaku.

Can the Uchiha clan really rebel?

Having a few pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan doesn't give you the right to stage an armed coup... While the three-tomoe Uchiha is certainly powerful, the Konoha leadership has nearly ten Kage-level fighters, plus an overwhelming number of Jonin...

Just as Uchiha Fugaku was struggling with this decision.

Obito Uchiha was carrying an abundance of ninja tools, scrolls, and books. He had changed into a completely new outfit. Reluctantly, Setsuna Uchiha bid farewell to Fugaku, and his demeanor seemed to have changed slightly.

Uchiha Setsuna bid farewell to Obito with a kind expression. After Obito left, Setsuna smiled, but his eyes turned sinister: "Clan Chief Fugaku, we've taken care of Obito. Now, it's time to deal with Aozumi..."

"Openly attacking the Sharingan, talking about the Will of Fire, and even using Tobirama Senju's bastard techniques as a fighting style—this is simply the greatest provocation against the Uchiha bloodline!"

"Leave it to me, I'll deflate his arrogance..."

Uchiha Setsuna and Fugaku stared at each other intently, and Setsuna spoke in a deep voice.

After a moment, Fugaku Uchiha nodded expressionlessly: "Since Elder Setsuna has made the decision, then let's do it."

Chapter 20: Tobirama Senju declares he never plagiarizes; the Uchiha clan attacks.

Bo Yatsushiro

The training ground of the Qing Shui family.

Aoshui, wielding the "Muramasa," clashed with Shisui, who was holding two small dachi.

"Fool, you should hold back three-tenths of your strength when you swing your sword, unless you are confident that you can kill the enemy with one strike..." Qing Shui smiled and easily deflected Zhi Shui's twin swords before slashing at his face with a sudden strike.

Shisui's twin swords were deflected outwards, while Qingshui's sword strike brought with it a biting gust of cold wind, reaching his face in the blink of an eye...

Shisui used all his Sharingan, but unfortunately, although the dynamic vision granted by the two tomoe allowed him to barely see the trajectory of Muramasa, his body's reaction lagged behind his visual perception, and he could only watch helplessly as Muramasa slashed down!

The blade stopped about one centimeter from Zhishui's forehead.

Qing Shui smiled at Zhi Shui and said softly, "Do you understand? If you have spare strength, when your attack is blocked, you'll have the power to defend and won't be in a completely passive situation..."

"Especially for ninjas, there are various ninjutsu techniques to confuse the opponent's vision, so going all out is not advisable."

Cold sweat slowly dripped down Zhi Shui's forehead. He nodded seriously and said, "I understand, brother."

At this moment, Shisui felt both grateful for having such a strong and patient older brother to guide him and somewhat frustrated.

He thought his swordsmanship was already excellent, but it was full of flaws in front of Qing Shui.

What Shisui didn't know was that he thought he was exchanging swords with Aoshui, but in reality, every round was a battle with Tobirama Senju.

As for Tobirama Senju, he was a hardcore ruthless man who grew up clashing swords with various Uchiha assassins from the Warring States period and had clashed with Izuna Uchiha, who was second only to Madara Uchiha, over a thousand times.

The swordsmanship he developed, inheriting his own sharp, practical, and insidious style, integrates illusion techniques and chakra blades, making it a truly useful tool for murder, robbery, and the destruction of families!

Especially when dealing with the Uchiha clan, Tobirama Senju deliberately used the delay between the Sharingan's dynamic vision and brain reaction to devise several deadly moves...

In the hands of Aoshui, a Uchiha with abundant eye power and two tomoe, he could master both the forward and reverse techniques, making up for the shortcomings of Tobirama Senju's lack of Sharingan.

"I think I know where you came from in my ninjutsu... Since you are a descendant of Kagami, I taught him swordsmanship, and my water jutsu and genjutsu were copied by those Uchiha guys, it's not surprising that you can develop forbidden techniques to seal my soul."

Tobirama Senju scrutinized her intently for a long time. He spoke first, but received no response from Aoshui. After a moment of silence, he couldn't help but ask:

"But are you using my swordsmanship or Uchiha Izuna's fighting style?"

When Tobirama Senju was instructing Shisui, he initially saw his own reflection in Shisui and was quite pleased with himself, thinking that Shisui had abandoned the darkness and embraced the light, believing that his swordsmanship was far superior to that of the Uchiha.

But slowly, his expression froze, and Qing Shui's swordsmanship evolved back to resemble that of a pure Uchiha, and so much like Uchiha Izuna!

Later on, even Tobirama Senju himself became somewhat confused.

In fact, the swordsmanship styles and techniques of Uchiha Izuna and Senju Tobirama are very similar.

Both of them are calm and ruthless characters. The only obvious difference is that Tobirama Senju is better at understanding people's hearts, while Izuna Uchiha has the Sharingan as a feint, making him more unrestrained.

Qingshui blinked and couldn't help but sigh, the eternal problem in the ninja world seems to always be the bonds between people.

The reincarnations of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, Ashura and Indra, need no further explanation. However, the intense bond between Izuna Uchiha and Tobirama Senju is no less powerful than that between their brothers who fought for a thousand years.

For example, even someone as wise and composed as Tobirama Senju couldn't suppress his intense curiosity when faced with questions about Izuna Uchiha...

"Is that important, Tobirama? I've discovered something very interesting. I've studied both of your swordsmanship, and I've found that there's a high degree of overlap, including your very similar philosophies..."

"The only difference is probably whether or not you have the Sharingan. So, I'm wondering, did you borrow Uchiha Izuna's swordsmanship, or was it him..."

Before Aoshui could finish speaking, Tobirama Senju spoke up rather eagerly:

"Of course he copied me! Judging from the result, didn't my Flying Thunder God Slash easily defeat him? In the ninja world, there's no such thing as the winner copying the loser!"

Tobirama Senju spoke with great confidence, but there was a hint of inexplicable guilt in his words.

Aokiji keenly grasped this point and nodded with a smile: "Yes, yes, Tobirama is absolutely right... The Flying Thunder God Technique certainly wasn't a ninjutsu Tobirama devised because his swordsmanship couldn't match Uchiha Izuna's..."

"Oh, it's nothing. All ninjutsu and swordsmanship in the world are copied. Copying each other improves them! Admit it, Tobirama, there's nothing shameful about it. Our Uchiha clan's Sharingan can even copy..."

"What do you mean, nothing at all! I'm not like you Uchiha. I use my own swordsmanship and ninjutsu. I didn't copy that bastard!"

Tobirama Senju was unusually concerned about this matter and emphasized it very strongly.

But the electronic voice in Qing Shui's mind seemed to provide the answer: [From your target, Senju Tobirama, you have received a boost to your motor skills!]

With a smile, Qingshui waved goodbye to Tobirama Senju, the Second Hokage who was trying to debate with him for another five hundred rounds to figure out the truth. While quietly feeling his increasingly active body, he explained the essence of swordsmanship to Shisui.

Qingshui has figured out the tricks of the trade.

When dealing with someone as wary as Tobirama Senju, one should adopt a go-with-the-flow attitude, taking advantage of whatever benefits one can gain, and never being too hasty, lest it backfire.

After all, Konoha still has Danzo Shimura and Hiruzen Sarutobi, a pair of brilliant talents who will eventually pull off a miraculous feat that will leave Tobirama Senju bewildered and cause him to explode with gold coins.

"It's alright, Shisui. If you don't understand, your brother can teach you again..."

Aoshui gently touched Shisui's sweaty forehead. Aoshui's swordsmanship, which came from Tobirama Senju and had been improved by him, was still a bit too advanced for six-year-old Shisui.

Just as Shisui nodded earnestly.

A gray-haired, muscular adult ninja walked into the Aoshizu clan's training ground and said, "I also have some knowledge of swordsmanship. Uchiha Aoshizu, if you still have the courage to face me, let's exchange a few blows."

As soon as he finished speaking, a pair of scarlet Sharingan with three tomoe slowly began to rotate in the man's eye sockets.

The person who came was also quite famous within the Uchiha clan.

His name is Uchiha Yatsuhoku. He is a well-known Jonin with three tomoe in the clan and a staunch hawk!

I can't sleep...

I'll post another chapter after I get up. Goodnight everyone...

Chapter 21: Tobirama Senju, who wanted to help, and Aomizu, who was disturbed.

The Eighth Hokage's three-tomoe Sharingan was filled with murderous intent, and its cold eye power struck Qing Shui, making the temperature of the entire training ground seem to drop a few degrees.

In the ninja world, the three-tomoe Uchiha had a terrifying reputation: "In a one-on-one situation, you should run away first. Only two Jonin can try to fight him by attacking him from the front and back, depending on the situation."

Shisui appeared in front of Aomine in a flash, raised the small katana in his hand, and narrowed his eyes…

"Shisui, don't be rude to your senior." Qingshui pulled Shisui, who was blocking his way, behind him, turned around and gave him a warning look, his eyes flashing red.

The meaning was clear—you're not allowed to reveal your Sharingan!

Shisui pursed her lips and gently tugged at Qingshui's sleeve to indicate that she understood.

“Senior Eighth Generation, this is the Qing Shui family’s training ground. It’s usually a small place where we brothers cultivate. How did you end up here by mistake today?”

Aokiji turned his head, meeting Uchiha Yatsuhoshi's gaze directly without flinching, and slowly said, "If I remember correctly, I put up a very conspicuous sign at the door, indicating that this is Aokiji's residence..."

"So, did you come here to exchange sword techniques, or are you just looking for an excuse to fight me?" Qing Shui's tone remained polite, but his eyes turned sharp.

Although his current character is "Uchiha Tobirama, who is proficient in the Will of Fire", it does not mean that he has to maintain a smiling attitude towards enemies who come to attack his home.

The training grounds in Qingshui were very spacious, so there was no possibility of getting lost. And these unfriendly newcomers were none other than Uchiha Hachimoku, a key member of the hawkish Uchiha faction…

"Is it because of my criticism of the Sharingan? Or is it because my Water Release techniques and fighting style have displeased some old fogies from the Warring States period? They're trying to force a lesson on me..."

Qing Shui snorted coldly in his heart, and a fighting spirit surged within him.

Coincidentally, Qing Shui recently planned to find an opportunity to have a serious battle with a powerful Jonin, so as to assess his own strength and give himself an accurate benchmark.

With his current strength—Water Release, Genjutsu, and Sharingan—in this ninja world that's like a dark forest, Qing Shui still doesn't feel secure enough.

"Hmph... brat, that's not important. What's important is that your current thinking is dangerous and needs to be corrected!"

After Uchiha Yatsuhoku finished speaking, his expression also became somewhat tense.
