Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 4 Mikoto: I Awakened the Byakugan?

This sudden turn of events shocked Uchiha Mikoto, causing the tray in her hands to tremble in panic, spilling tea onto the plate.

Although she was a Jonin who had seen dangerous missions in the village, seeing another boy naked in her own living room was something that was beyond the acceptable range for a ninja.

Uchiha Yoichi was also shocked when he saw that, but he had become mentally strong because of the bizarre ability. He knew that he absolutely could not give anything away at this time, so he could only pretend that he did not know anything and clear himself of suspicion.

No matter how intriguing it was, he couldn't keep staring.

"Mikoto, what's wrong?"

When Fugaku Uchiha saw Mikoto suddenly make a strange noise, he asked in a deep voice; usually his wife was very proper when receiving guests, but today she was acting strangely.

"He, he, Uchiha Yoichi."

Mikoto Uchiha felt a lump in her throat. She wanted to ask the boy in front of her why he was naked, but she couldn't bring herself to say something so direct and embarrassing.

"Chieftain, did I come at the wrong time? Perhaps we should come another day."

Uchiha Yoichi remained calm, but with a bewildered expression, he asked, indicating that he didn't know what had happened either.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Yang, we're almost done talking, please excuse me for a moment."

Fugaku Uchiha said in a deep voice to Yoichi Uchiha. He noticed that Mikoto was acting strangely and seemed to be somewhat unfriendly to Yoichi Uchiha.

But it wasn't like this when we welcomed it in; how did it change so quickly?

So he had to ask!

"Mikoto, come out with me for a moment."

After standing up, Fugaku Uchiha spoke to Mikoto Uchiha, and then walked out first. Upon seeing this, Mikoto Uchiha quickly looked away, lowered her head, and followed Fugaku out.

After the two reached the courtyard at the end of the corridor, Fugaku Uchiha stopped and asked, "Mikoto, what happened just now? Do you have a problem with Yoichi-kun?"

"No, Fugaku, how could he do such a thing in someone else's house? And didn't you stop him?"

"How could you allow this to happen?"

Mikoto Uchiha said with some agitation that she had only meant to bring tea and snacks, but suddenly saw this scene; and what was strange was that her husband and Uchiha Masahiro did not react to this at all. Did they turn a blind eye to it?

"What exactly happened? Yoichi-kun didn't seem to have done anything impolite just now, Mikoto, what are you talking about?"

Fugaku Uchiha was completely bewildered. He recalled that apart from being a little unhappy, Yoichi Uchiha was otherwise impeccable. He could understand that little bit of emotion, since he had been forced to back down to the village in order to appease the clan.

That alone shouldn't have made Mikoto Uchiha so agitated, let alone point fingers at her guests in public.

Mikoto Uchiha quickly said, "Fugaku, Uchiha Yoichi's clothes... Do you really understand that kind of thing?"

"Clothes? Mikoto, what are you talking about? Yoichi's clothes are perfectly normal, just a regular ninja outfit. Besides, as the clan leader, I don't have many rules. I don't need to wear anything particularly formal. We're not the Hyuga clan."

Upon hearing this, Mikoto Uchiha covered her mouth in surprise and said, "Ninja outfit? Fugaku, you're saying that Yoichi Uchiha was wearing a ninja outfit just now?"

"Of course, didn't you bring Yoichi and Mabayashi in? Mikoto, what's wrong with you today? If you're not feeling well, go and rest."

Fugaku Uchiha spoke up to offer some advice, as he had a feeling that Mikoto was acting a bit strange today.

"No, Fugaku, I'm fine. But are you sure Uchiha Yoichi is wearing a ninja outfit and not... anything else?" Or maybe he's not wearing anything at all?

Mikoto Uchiha asked again. She shouldn't have been hallucinating, nor could she have been under a genjutsu, since this was the Uchiha clan head's house.

"It's a ninja outfit, Mikoto."

As Fugaku Uchiha spoke, he was already getting a little impatient. In his opinion, Mikoto was acting strangely today, refusing to go and rest when asked.

"Mikoto, you should go and rest. You don't need to take care of the rest."

"I...I understand, but Fugaku, I'd better go and get the tea set back; it's already spilled."

Mikoto Uchiha swallowed hard and said that she believed Fugaku wouldn't lie to her. If it wasn't a problem in other people's eyes, then it must be her own problem.

Is there something wrong with my eyes?

If it's about seeing through things, it seems only the Byakugan can do that, but she didn't even use her Sharingan just now, so how did she suddenly gain the Byakugan's ability to see through things?

"Alright, then you should take a good rest after you finish cleaning up the tea set. You've probably been too tired lately. But Yoichi-kun didn't do anything excessive just now. Mikoto, you shouldn't have said that in public."

Fugaku Uchiha spoke up, feeling that Mikoto's attitude just now was very bad. Even if she had personal emotions, she shouldn't have shown them, because she was the clan leader's wife and, to some extent, represented him as the Uchiha clan leader.

"I understand, Fugaku. I'll go apologize to Yoichi later."

Mikoto Uchiha said apologetically, realizing that she was the clan leader's wife, but what had just happened was too strange; how could she have witnessed such a scene?

Afterwards, Mikoto Uchiha followed Fugaku Uchiha to the reception room. As soon as she entered, Mikoto Uchiha saw the naked body.

'Sure enough, only she can see it; no one else reacts. But why is it only Yang Yijun who can see it?'

Mikoto Uchiha's heart skipped a beat, but she had prepared herself mentally before entering the room.

"Yang Yi-kun, I was a bit rude just now, please forgive me."

"No, madam, please don't worry about it, it's alright."

When Uchiha Yang saw that Uchiha Mikoto was about to clear the tea tray, he stood up slightly to help and pushed the tea tray over to her.

However, his movement caused Uchiha Mikoto to quickly look away from the sight of his massive, swaying member, but she couldn't help glancing at it again.

After tidying up the tea tray, Uchiha Mikoto quickly left without saying a word of politeness.

"I'm sorry, Mikoto has been working too hard lately and hasn't been getting enough rest, which is why she's acting strangely."

After Mikoto Uchiha left, Fugaku Uchiha apologized on behalf of his wife.

"Let's get back to business, Yang Yi. The clan will compensate you. Is there anything you need?"

"I don't really care about compensation, but chieftain, you just said that the village suspects I deliberately didn't save my teammates. I can't accept that. If I had any ill intentions towards my teammates, I wouldn't have brought them back from dozens of kilometers away."

Uchiha Yoichi's tone remained firm, but Uchiha Mikoto's enthusiastic interruption softened his stance slightly.

"I'll stick to taking on missions solo from now on. Senior Kaname is planning to send me to the security team, but I prefer more flexible hours."
