Naruto: Random Flying Thunder God Technique? Intercepting the Dark-Dark Fruit

The billowing smoke was accompanied by mouthwatering aromas, and the sizzling sound of charcoal grilling over oil and meat could be heard from time to time from various seats.

Ordinary residents or ninjas would gather around noon to sit down, enjoy delicious food, and chat to pass the time.

It was clear that this wasn't the first time Shiranui Sho and Uchiha Mikoto had been here.

After the Second Shinobi World War, Konoha's commerce continued to develop, and many businessmen from other towns in the Land of Fire and even from abroad came to Konoha to open shops.

This barbecue restaurant opened last month, and business has been booming ever since.

"Sister Mikoto".

Shiranui Sho easily checked off several dishes, then naturally handed the menu to the other side.

Mikoto reached out and took it without hesitation. After noticing that the boy had also checked all the items he liked, she smiled knowingly.

"It seems I have no secrets from you, Xiao-kun~" Mikoto said with a light laugh.

Upon hearing this, Shiranui Sho fell silent.

That's absolutely right.

After all, not long ago, Mikoto's biggest secret was exposed to him in the closet and under the bed.

However, since Mikoto didn't notice, he naturally pretended not to see or hear anything.

"Miss Mikoto, there are still many things I don't understand."

Shiranui Sou said with a smile.

Mikoto looked at Shiranui Sho thoughtfully, and after a while, she nodded as if she had noticed something.

"Sure enough, when I was organizing Xiao Jun's wardrobe today, I found that all the clothes inside were a bit too small."

"Because you've been so busy with your mission, Xiao Jun hasn't been taking good care of yourself, has he?"

“Uh, this…”

Shiranui Sho was taken aback by the change in topic.

Of course, the most important reason was that when Mikoto mentioned the wardrobe, he couldn't help but recall what had happened around the wardrobe not long ago.

But speaking of clothes in the closet...

Indeed, he hadn't bought any new clothes for a long time, and some of his clothes from a year ago were no longer wearable.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Mikoto said reproachfully, "Sho-kun, it's good to be ambitious, but you can't neglect yourself because you're busy with your mission."

"How about this?"

She suddenly clapped her hands lightly, her clasped hands tilted to the side in front of her, revealing a knowing smile.

"I'll be free after dinner, so if you're free too, I can pick out some new clothes for you?"

"Okay, then I'll have to ask you for help later, Mikoto-nee."

The light shining in the girl's eyes was a gift the boy couldn't refuse.

Originally, Shiranui Sho had planned to ask Minato in the afternoon if he had any insights into the Flying Thunder God Technique.

But looking at it now, it's not too late to go tomorrow.

Not far away, several Uchiha clan ninjas sat together grilling meat, the four of them surrounding a small table.

The steaming smoke and heat created a lively atmosphere, and after a few bottles of wine, the emotions that had been weighing on their hearts came to show on their faces.

"Hey, look over there."

Suddenly, a young man from the Uchiha clan nudged the elbow of the person next to him and nodded his chin toward the location where Shiranui Sho and Mikoto were.

Looking at the smiling girl with beautiful black hair not far away, the four young men of the Uchiha clan felt their hearts skip a beat.

Mikoto Uchiha is the apple of the eye of an elder of the Uchiha clan, and she is eighteen years old this year.

Many years ago, when she was a young girl, she already had quite a few suitors among her peers.

From the ninja academy to the ranks of genin, chunin, and jonin, she never lacked admiring glances.

Beautiful appearance, graceful figure, and privileged family background.

Most importantly, their ninja talent is also extraordinary.

At only eighteen years old, he had already awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan, making him one of the youngest Jonin in the Uchiha clan.

It is a boy's nature to like beautiful girls, and it is the Uchiha clan's nature to admire strength.

Faced with the beauty and strength of Uchiha Mikoto, how could an ordinary young Uchiha possibly withstand her?

However, just as their gazes fell upon the person opposite Mikoto, the four young members of the Uchiha clan simultaneously darkened their expressions, and a faint red light flickered in their dark eyes.

The lively atmosphere at the table instantly cooled down, and the atmosphere became stagnant.

Snapped--

A young Uchiha man slammed his wine glass down on the table and stood up with a gloomy face.

"Hey, Ryosuke, don't act impulsively!"

A member of his clan on the other side tugged at his sleeve and whispered words of advice.

The other two Uchiha members standing nearby, including the one who had just prompted the others to look at Shiranui Sho and Uchiha Mikoto, also looked hesitant at this moment.

Seeing someone of the opposite sex whom you have feelings for and admire talking and laughing with others inevitably makes you feel jealous and annoyed.

But they never intended to cause trouble with this.

Regardless of who the other boy is, Uchiha Mikoto, as the only daughter of an elder, is not someone they can easily provoke.

It's clear that not all members of the Uchiha clan are brainless.

But if a conflict is to break out, all you need in a group is one brainless person.

"Ryosuke! Ryousuke!!"

Ryosuke Uchiha could no longer hear the increasingly distant voices of his companions trying to dissuade him.

The heat from the barbecue seemed to raise the temperature of his blood, and more importantly, the drinks he drank completely ignited the anger in his heart.

Chapter 6: Four Uchiha clans couldn't even muster one three-tomoe weapon.

"It seems like most of Xiao Jun's clothes are dark-colored. Maybe he'll be pleasantly surprised if he tries a darker style?"

Mikoto Uchiha counted on her fingers the main clothing styles of Sho Shiranui, and after reaching the above conclusion, she smiled and said.

“Actually, I find the color of Mikoto’s purple kimono very attractive. Maybe it would be good to try this style next,” Shiranui Sho said with a smile.

"Really?"

Mikoto was startled, and after realizing what had happened, her ears turned slightly red, and her hands unconsciously rested on her thighs.

If they have the same color and style, then wouldn't that become... matching outfits for couples?

Just as the two were chatting and laughing, the approaching footsteps brought their laughter to an abrupt halt.

A young man in his early twenties, dressed in the dark blue clothing favored by the Uchiha clan and embroidered with a fan-shaped crest, walked with a stern face to the side of their seats.

Those black eyes revealed a hint of ruthlessness and disgust when they looked at Shiranui Sho, but when they looked at Mikoto, they were filled with an undisguised burning passion.

"Mikoto, why don't you go over there and eat with your family?"

Uchiha Ryosuke stared intently at Mikoto and spoke in the gentlest tone he had ever used. His affected manner gave Shiranui Sho a goosebumps all over his arm.

"Uchiha...Ryosuke?"

Mikoto looked uncertainly at the face she had only met a few times. After searching her memory, she finally remembered the other person's name, and her brows furrowed unconsciously.

Although they are considered clan members, large clans may not interact regularly and may only meet once or twice during clan gatherings. Their relationship is far less than that of ordinary friends.

I don't know what their reason was for feeling that I should eat with this group of unfamiliar people instead of with the people I had chosen.

"Mikoto, I didn't expect you to remember my name?"

Uchiha Ryosuke grinned, exhaling a breath of alcohol.

After Mikoto Uchiha recognized him, he took another step forward, wanting to get closer to her.

"and many more."

The gentle smile that the girl had just worn while chatting with Shiranui Xiao vanished completely, her brows furrowed slightly, and a sharp glint appeared in her eyes.

The aura of a Jonin, honed through countless life-or-death battles, sent a chill down Uchiha Ryosuke's spine as he tried to approach, freezing him in place.

“Uchiha Ryosuke, I don’t recall ever being close enough to call you by your first name,” Uchiha Mikoto said coldly.

In this world, calling someone by their first name when you're not familiar with them is definitely an offense.

If a stranger of the same age were to call her that normally, she would be somewhat surprised and uncomfortable, but she wouldn't say anything that would embarrass the other person.

But now, the other party looks like they have ill intentions.

Secondly, Xiao Jun had invited her to lunch, and she didn't want him to misunderstand.

Hearing Mikoto Uchiha's blunt words and noticing the stares of many people around him, Ryosuke Uchiha felt his blood boil and the last thread of reason in his brain snap.

Snapped--

He slammed his right hand heavily on the table next to Xiao, and instead of provoking the former, he vented all his anger on the latter.

"Mikoto, how could you humiliate your own kind for the sake of a foreign brat like this!?"

Uchiha Ryosuke glared at Shiranui Sho with eyes wide with fury, and angrily rebuked, "This pretty boy who looks like he hasn't even grown his hair yet!?"

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Mikoto's expression changed, and she immediately raised her eyebrows, trying to get up.

At this moment, Shiranui Sho had already left her position and stood between Uchiha Ryosuke and Mikoto.

Meanwhile, many customers who had almost finished eating and were just chatting nearby saw this and, not wanting to get into trouble, quickly got up, paid their bills, and left.

"Hey, Ryosuke, how dare you talk to Mikoto like that?!"

"Hey kid, don't worry about it. Ryosuke just had too much to drink today!"

At this moment, the other three Uchiha clan members who had come with Uchiha Ryosuke saw that the situation was not good and hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over.

They didn't care about Shiranui Sho; he didn't have any clan insignia and was most likely just a commoner ninja without any background.

What truly frightened them was Uchiha Mikoto; her strength and family background were far beyond what ordinary Uchiha clan members could compare to.

Moreover, the Uchiha clan also has its own clan rules.

If Mikoto Uchiha complains to the clan head that Ryosuke Uchiha harassed her while drunk, Ryosuke will be severely punished by the clan.

Seeing this, Shiranui Sho snorted coldly without any politeness.

These three people seemed to be trying to persuade Uchiha Ryosuke, but their apology lacked sincerity, and in fact, they were also supporting him.

The meaning is simply, "We outnumber each other and have the upper hand, so don't be petty and don't take a loss to heart."

If it were any other ordinary ninja, they probably would have just endured it for a while and then let it pass.

But Shiranui Sho has never been one to tolerate things!

After more than ten years of hard work, he became a disciple of Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin, and became a direct descendant of the Hokage. His strength rose to the level of Jonin, making him one of the elites of the village.

The result was that he should keep his anger inside, endure it, and that patience would bring peace.

Does that mean he's been working for nothing all these past ten years?

Without backing down, Shiranui Sho stared directly into Uchiha Ryosuke's bloodshot eyes and coldly rebuked him, "You Uchiha idiot, stop barking and raving here under the influence of alcohol!"

As soon as he said that, the whole room fell silent.

Mikoto Uchiha's eyes gleamed with a strange light as she gazed at Sho Shiranui, who was blocking her way, lost in thought.

The crowd watching the commotion changed their expressions, realizing that things were starting to go wrong, and they too got up to pay and leave.

The four Uchiha who faced Shiranui Sho's rebuke all had their faces darken.

A chilling aura of chakra emanated from the eyes of the four people, turning their originally jet-black eyes into a crimson hue.

The four men simultaneously shouted coldly, "Kid, apologize!!"

Being stared at fiercely by four pairs of Sharingan would make most ninjas feel uneasy, but Shiranui Xiao almost laughed out loud.

What did he see?

Four people, two pairs of single magatama, two pairs of double magatama.
