“I know that Mikoto is worried that it will affect my mission and training.”

He never doubted the girl's feelings for him.

"Um……"

The feeling of being trusted flowed through Mikoto's heart like a warm current.

"However, it's not right for Mikoto-nee to keep this from me all this time, is it?"

"……sorry."

Mikoto Uchiha lowered her head even further, looking weak.

Shiranui Sho gently patted her shoulder, then got up from the sofa.

"There's still some time before dinner, so let's take care of this now..."

After all, we can't keep letting those annoying flies fly around like that!

A cold glint flashed in Shiranui Xiao's eyes.

Chapter 42 Obito in his childhood? [Please read on!]

The two walked side by side on the streets of Konoha.

As they gradually approached in one direction and entered the territory of the Uchiha clan, the atmosphere on the street subtly changed.

More and more shops along the roadside are now displaying round fan logos.

Most of the passersby and vendors were dressed in clothes embroidered with fan-shaped patterns.

Some Uchiha clansmen, busy with their business, saw Mikoto and greeted her with smiles, to which Mikoto returned the greeting with a wave and a smile.

Seeing this, Shiranui Sou was also somewhat surprised.

The Uchiha clan's territory seemed somewhat different from what he had imagined.

If you ignore the fan-shaped family crest, the atmosphere within this clan's territory is no different from any street in Konoha, and it even feels more like a place of daily life.

This truly touched upon a blind spot in the knowledge of this commoner ninja.

But on second thought, it makes sense.

After all, in any ninja clan, there are probably just as many ordinary people who do not work as ninjas.

"Shō-kun, is this your first time visiting the Uchiha clan's territory?"

Mikoto asked curiously.

"After all, Mikoto is the only Uchiha I know."

Shiranui Sho replied with a smile.

Mikoto nodded slightly, then a barely perceptible blush spread across her pretty cheeks as she asked.

"Xiao Jun, why don't you come to my house for a visit later? Come to think of it, it's been so long since I've been the one bothering you at your house, you've never been to mine."

And... Father and Mother both went out today.

Towards the end, Uchiha Mikoto's voice became barely audible.

Seemingly realizing that her words were misinterpreted, she quickly corrected them.

"What I mean is, I just said I would treat Xiao Jun to a meal. Now that we're back in our clan's territory, why don't I cook for him myself?"

Shiranui Sho raised an eyebrow in surprise, then agreed without hesitation.

"Great! I'm really looking forward to Mikoto's cooking."

Mikoto would occasionally bring him some homemade pastries, but this was the first time she had cooked for him.

Judging from the deliciousness of the pastries, the chef's skills must be quite good.

"Okay, then I'll just buy some groceries on my way."

Seeing that Shiranui Xiao agreed to visit her home, Uchiha Mikoto's lips curved into a wider smile, and her steps seemed even lighter.

"By the way, does Xiao Jun have any dietary restrictions?"

"No, I'm fine with anything."

Okay~

Mikoto nodded with a smile, her beautiful eyes scanning the surroundings before finally settling on a particular stall.

She stepped forward with a smile and began to chat familiarly with an elderly woman with a full head of white hair.

"Mother-in-law, it's been a long time! How have you been lately?"

"That's alright. Miss Mikoto, are you here to buy groceries for your mother today as well?"

"No, I'm here today..."

Mikoto blinked, then subconsciously turned to look at the boy not far behind her, her pretty face slightly flushed.

Seeing this, the old woman from the Uchiha clan lifted her eyelids in surprise, glanced at it briefly, and then smiled knowingly.

She said kindly, "Miss Mikoto is getting on in years. Since he's the one you love, you should cherish him."

Mikoto glanced back again and saw that Shiranui Sou was too far away to hear clearly, so she lowered her voice and whispered.

"I will."

Then, she seemed to hear footsteps approaching from behind, and Uchiha Mikoto quickly straightened up, pretending that nothing had happened.

"It's so good to be young."

Looking at the two standing side by side, looking very well-matched, the old lady Uchiha sighed.

Just then, a small head suddenly popped out from behind her.

The little boy peered at Uchiha Mikoto and Shiranui Sho through the vegetable stall in front of him.

The old woman Uchiha smiled kindly and gently patted the head of the child who had suddenly appeared with her left hand.

She looked at the two people opposite her and began to introduce them.

"This is my grandson Obito, he is four years old this year. His parents... sigh, so I'm taking care of him now."

She patted the little boy with the spiky head and said something.

"Obito, quickly say hello to Mikoto and this big brother."

The little boy gave a simple, slightly silly smile: "Hello, older sister and older brother!"

"..."

Looking at that innocent smile, Shiranui Sou almost lost her composure.

Obito Uchiha.

Following Kaguya Otsutsuki, another future mini-boss appeared before him.

However, he did not harbor any ill will towards the other party.

Opinions differ on whether to travel back in time to kill someone to prevent a future war, but he opposes it.

Imposing one's future evils onto one's past is itself a form of evil.

Moreover, Obito Uchiha was merely a larger pawn.

The mastermind behind the scenes lost this pawn; how much effort would it take to replace it with another?

As for the potential negative consequences that the other party might cause in the future...

Since Shiranui Shoto is standing on this land of the ninja world, how could he allow those things to continue to happen?

"Miss Mikoto, these are all freshly picked vegetables, please take them."

Obito's grandmother first weighed the vegetables that Mikoto had chosen, and before handing them to her, she added a large bunch of vegetables as a bonus. Then she handed the heavy bag to Uchiha Mikoto.

Mikoto exclaimed in surprise, "Grandma, you..."

"Consider this a token of my gratitude to Ms. Mikoto for continuing to support my business."

Obito's grandmother smiled and said, "Miss Mikoto, you'd better do your best!"

Her gaze swept back and forth between Shiranui Sou and Uchiha Mikoto, as she whispered words of encouragement.

"Thank you, thank you."

Unable to withstand the elderly woman's blessing gaze, Uchiha Mikoto said goodbye and left with Shiranui Sho, her face flushed.

Then, the two bought some other ingredients along the way.

Along the way, the ordinary residents of the Uchiha clan greeted Mikoto Uchiha warmly, and this enthusiasm also extended to Sho Shiranui.

They didn't understand much about the things that happened among ninjas.

His only wish is to live a good life, just like any other Konoha resident.

Shiranui Sho and Uchiha Mikoto walked side by side, chatting and laughing, towards her home.

Along the way, Shiranui Xiao carried the groceries in her hands, while Mikoto walked lightly with her hands behind her back, her eyebrows curving as she recounted amusing childhood stories.

Time seemed to suddenly become quiet, and the sunlight became gentle.

Until they arrived at Mikoto's house.

In front of the tightly closed gate, Uchiha Fugaku, dressed in a dark blue robe and a green ninja vest, stood holding a bouquet of flowers.

As he watched Mikoto Uchiha approach, a stiff smile appeared on his lips.

When his gaze fell upon Shiranui Sou, who was chatting and laughing with him, a shadow of gloom appeared in his eyes.

"Miss Misaka, I..."

He chose to ignore Shiranui Sho and took a few steps forward, intending to present her with the bouquet of flowers.

"Vice Captain Fugaku, I told you not to come looking for me again!"

Uchiha Mikoto frowned slightly and refused in a cold voice.

"And these flowers, please don't waste any more money, Vice Captain."

Immediately afterwards, under the angry gaze of Uchiha Fugaku, Shiranui Sho slowly hooked and took Uchiha Mikoto's soft, boneless little hand.

He smiled as he looked at Uchiha Fugaku, but a hint of coldness lingered in his eyes.

"Uchiha Fugaku, isn't it clear enough what I mean?"

Chapter 43 VS Uchiha Fugaku! [Please read it! 】

As he watched those hands beckon in front of him, Uchiha Fugaku's eyes narrowed, and his face turned ashen.

He couldn't understand it, so he frowned and looked at Uchiha Mikoto, asking the question that came from the bottom of his heart.

“Uchiha Mikoto, why did you choose an outsider? Only through union within the Uchiha clan can the purity of bloodline be ensured, producing outstanding offspring. For the sake of the clan's development, why didn't we…”

"Shut up, Uchiha Fugaku."

Shiranui Sou sneered.

He stepped forward, blocking Uchiha Fugaku's aggressive gaze.

Why did Mikoto Uchiha choose herself instead of Fugaku Uchiha?

The answer is clearly within the riddle itself.

If it were Uchiha Mikoto, who hadn't met someone she loved in the original story, she might have complied with her clan's arrangements.

But now that she has found someone she loves, how could she possibly give up love and sacrifice herself for the development of her family?

Moreover, this so-called "family development" is nothing more than an excuse for Uchiha Fugaku's moral blackmail.

How could the Uchiha clan, a large clan, decline without sacrificing the love of a young girl?

"The Uchiha clan's development depends on sacrificing a girl's love? If word got out, people would laugh their heads off!"

Shiranui Akira made no attempt to hide her contempt for Uchiha Fugaku.

"you!"

Fugaku Uchiha could no longer contain his rage.
