"Shimura Danzo, that old man you saw who was quite hostile towards you, that's him," Fugaku Uchiha said, his Sharingan eyes swirling rapidly, his tone extremely cold.

After the Nine-Tails attack, the village's leadership planned to take this opportunity to reorganize the chaotic layout of the buildings. This would require the clans that originally occupied the central location of the village to relocate, in order to strengthen the Hokage's authority.

With Danzo Shimura's intervention, the Uchiha clan was forced into their current remote location, which fueled growing discontent within the clan.

However, the Sharingan in the Nine-Tails' eyes was real and genuine. In addition, the relationship between the Uchiha clan and other ninja clans was also very complicated. In the end, Fugaku Uchiha endured it.

Today, he told Uchiha Shisui everything, hoping to make him more wary of this shady character.

"So, the former teammates of the Mirror Ancestor are now so hostile towards us?" Shisui's bloodshot eyes flashed with confusion. What kind of grudge could make the other party hate the Uchiha so much?

"Shisui, you're wrong. It's not that Uncle Kagami and Danzo had a grudge, but rather that prejudice against us has been there since the time of the Second Hokage."

Fugaku looked at Shisui with a solemn expression, noticing the puzzled look on his face. "Apart from one retired old man, all four of them, including the Third Hokage, inherited the Second Hokage's will."

"That is, to monitor, exclude, and control the Uchiha clan!"

Seemingly unable to accept the clan leader's warning, or perhaps incredulous that Konoha's highest decision-makers would so ostracize the Uchiha clan, a look of confusion flashed in Shisui's eyes.

The patriarch's stern warning today, and the gentle teachings of the three generations of elders in the past, kept echoing in his mind, and for a moment Zhi Shui lost the ability to speak.

"Stop the water!"

"Yes, Chieftain."

Seeing Shisui lost in thought, Fugaku Uchiha frowned slightly. "You've met that Senju kid too. How does he compare to Itachi?"

Thousand Hands and Thousand Feathers? Outwardly lively, inwardly calm, meticulous, insightful, with ninjutsu talent and an appetite far exceeding that of ordinary people?

Just as Uchiha Shisui was about to speak, he suddenly remembered the scene of Itachi being stripped of his hobby and forced to train, so he shut his mouth in time. A moment later...

"This person has a strong youthful spirit, decent talent, and the appearance of an heir from an ordinary ninja clan. He lacks combat experience, and perhaps due to his taijutsu, he has a large appetite..."

Being young, Shisui's voice involuntarily lowered as he spoke, his head bowed deeply, and his face felt burning.

"Hmph! The Senju clan produced the First and Second Hokage in succession, which also stole the talents of the younger generation, forcing the Senju to now have to cultivate a disciple from a side branch."

"That's why I need to intensify Itachi's training, to learn from the Senju clan's mistakes and prevent the clan from falling into other hands."

After verifying the information gathered by his subordinates with Shisui's account, Fugaku Uchiha was also amazed that the current successor of the Senju clan was such a glutton.

"Delicious, Kana, your water bun is really good!" Chiyu said, her eyes narrowing into crescent shapes as she chewed on the water bun filled with crushed ice and white sugar.

In the cold winter, sitting indoors with a blazing charcoal fire, eating cold food washes away all the irritability in my heart—it feels so good!

Kana Uzumaki, who was praised by Chiyu, did not respond. Instead, she was sweating profusely as she flipped through her notebook, sweat running down her fair skin and staining her hair.

"Kana!"

Chiba raised her voice, drawing Kana's attention back from her notes. Kana's body involuntarily slumped, and she gasped for breath.

Chiba naturally understood the reason for this situation; the Second Hokage's "Flying Thunder God Technique" was actually a kind of spatial sealing technique.

A ninja with spatial awareness inscribes a spatial sealing technique on his own soul, then inscribes the same technique on separate objects, using their mutual perception to travel through space.

However, because everyone's soul fluctuations are different, each person's technique is unique and can only be used by that person.

Normal ninjas don't have spatial abilities, so it's like reading a book written in a foreign language. Not understanding it doesn't matter, as is the case with most ninjas in Konoha.

Ninjas with spatial abilities can perceive the meaning behind it, so they can slowly work through it, but it will be very slow, and they may stagnate at a certain stage, like Genma Shiranui.

The Uzumaki family, however, was an unexpected presence. Their innate sealing talent, inherited in their bloodline, allowed them to partially interpret the spells even without spatial abilities. Their bloodline flowed instinctively, and they eventually became obsessed with them.

"Young Master, although this technique borrows from the secret techniques of the Uzumaki clan, I can only decipher a small part of it," Uzumaki Kana said as she walked to the side to begin her analysis.

Chiyu was not disappointed. Kana's appearance was only to help him speed up the process; his outstanding spatial talent was the main force in the analysis.

At this moment, Qianyu picked up the second bowl of steamed buns and stirred the shaved ice that had turned into sugar water with a spoon. He was thinking of another technique to pair with "Flying Thunder God".

The Fourth Hokage actually possesses a talent that many people overlook: "ultimate dynamic vision." The moment he lands in front of an enemy, he can make the correct fighting move in less than a second.

Without this, the Fourth Hokage would have been hacked to death long ago. His predictive ability far surpasses that of the Second Hokage, not to mention the current Senba.

Chiba was initially worried about this, but at this point, it still depends on the true worth of Tobirama Senju, the "Master of Forbidden Techniques".

This master of sea escape had long anticipated this problem, and he created a secret technique for perception by imitating the changes in the water's surface.

Water Release: Mind Freedom Technique.

As Chiyu stirred the porcelain bowl with a spoon, his eyes gradually became calm and still, and this state even affected his aura. This state made the perceptive Kana Uzumaki look at him in confusion.

This technique relies on a chakra flow similar to the Flying Thunder God Technique, and does not require hand seals to enter a state similar to meditation, but rather a state of "calm and stillness".

As the technique was activated, Chiba could clearly sense Kana's subtle movements, each step so clear that he could even vaguely predict her next move.

Thinking of this, Qianyu extended the range of his perception in one direction, about thirty meters away, and sensed a small figure moving around furtively. After that, his energy was clearly depleted.

With her aura stabilizing again, Qianyu let out a long breath, rubbed her temples, and was quite satisfied with the technique. It was truly delightful to have something so readily available!

Just then, Kana handed her summary to Chiba and then got up to leave, as she needed to go back and supervise Karin's training.

"By the way, Kana, Karin seemed to be huddled in a cabinet in the storage room just now, I wonder what she was doing," Chiba kindly reminded Kana before she left.

Upon hearing Chiyu's words, a hint of confusion flashed across Kana Uzumaki's face. After bowing respectfully, Kana Uzumaki turned and left.

A moment later, Karin, who had been frighteningly placing a hibernating snake in the wardrobe, was caught, followed by a wail that made Chiba, who was watching the analysis, smile slightly.

A sapling won't grow straight if it's not pruned, and Qianyu's actions allowed the red-haired girl who lacked love in the original timeline to enjoy a strong maternal love every day.
