Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 96 Kushina (Please Subscribe)

Then, Uchiha Masato temporarily put aside his patrol and watched from the sidelines.

Besides Wind Release, they even tried Fire Release. The original spider silk was very afraid of high temperatures, but after being made with a special process, its heat resistance was greatly enhanced. Even the explosive tags couldn't do anything to the combat suit.

The fireball, which lasted four or five seconds, failed to burn the ninja combat suit.

It also has a good energy absorption effect; a normal heavy blow hitting a ninja outfit can reduce the force by 60%.

"Seventeen combat suits will be produced next month. Keep two for me, and prioritize distributing the rest to your clansmen who are on dangerous missions."

Uchiha Yang said, "Let's consider external matters after satisfying our clansmen. However, even if we increase production, it will still take more than a year."

Uchiha Tokugawa added from the side, "Even if we produce day and night, it would still take about eighteen months to produce one for each member of the clan."

Kenji Uchiha spoke up, "Yoichi, this combat suit is already a treasure. What about the clan leader?"

"I know that good things will naturally go to our own people first, and those who are hostile to me will definitely not get them."

Uchiha Yoichi said that a little money is no problem, but the ninja combat suit is a different story; if Tsunade's brother had worn this back then, even if he stepped into an explosive tag pit, he would have been seriously injured at most.

How could I easily give away something that could save my life in a critical moment?

"Tokugawa-kun, the most crucial manufacturing machines must not be allowed to be stolen, even if they are destroyed."

"Don't worry, Master Yang. The machine will explode as soon as it leaves the sealing spell's range. No one can steal it."

Uchiha Tokugawa affirmed that the sealing technique there was set up by Uzumaki Mina, and the center of the seal contained many explosive tags, essentially a mechanical bomb.

Kenji Uchiha didn't touch the distribution of the ninja battle suits at all, leaving it entirely to Yoichi Uchiha. Since he intended to support Yoichi Uchiha as the next clan head, he would do it thoroughly, offering help and reminders but hardly interfering with Yoichi Uchiha's choices.

The hardline faction of the clan now greatly admires Uchiha Yoichi. Those who are about his age or even a little older than him address him as "Lord Yoichi" when they meet.

After all, Uchiha Yoichi had made a name for himself as the Konoha Raiga outside the clan, and he had also established a welfare system for the Uchiha clan.

Having done so much, coupled with Kenji Uchiha's initiative to relinquish power, and the respect shown by Masato Uchiha and Yokokawa Uchiha, the two squad leaders of the security forces, Yoichi Uchiha had already become the leader of the hardliners.

Finally, of the ninja combat suits produced next month, Uchiha Yoichi will keep two for himself, Uchiha Masato and other members of the guard will receive ten, and the remaining five will be given to the hardliners who go to the battlefield.

After discussing the matter, Uchiha Yoichi left.

There are no missions at the moment, and they must remain on standby in the village. Shadow clones are used to train Kurenai and the other two, while Uchiha Yoichi's main body can only train at the nearby training ground.

He had honed his swordsmanship to a very high level within a year. Uchiha Yoichi had even sparred with Hatake Sakumo a few times, not considering their other strengths, but purely in terms of swordsmanship.

Although Uchiha Yoichi was at a disadvantage, his occasional counterattacks made Hatake Sakumo take him seriously.

According to Sakumo Hatake, Yoichi Uchiha's swordsmanship didn't have any specific techniques, but it could be summed up in two words: fast and ruthless!

His sword swings are as fast as lightning, and once he gains the upper hand, every strike is aimed at vital points. Moreover, relying on his body's steel-like toughness, he can ignore some non-fatal wounds.

That's why Sakumo Hatake described him as ruthless.

Other swordsmen don't have a body as tough as Uchiha Yoichi's, and ninjas with such tough bodies wouldn't practice swordsmanship like Uchiha Yoichi.

If Uchiha Yoichi goes all out, then Hatake Sakumo will have a hard time defeating him. In the end, Hatake Sakumo may have a slight advantage, but he will certainly not have an easy time either.

This judgment is based on the fact that Uchiha Yoichi did not reveal that he knew the Flying Thunder God Technique. If Hatake Sakumo knew that he knew this forbidden technique, he would probably have to change his story.

Next, Uchiha Yoichi plans to properly train in the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

This ninjutsu is extremely perverse; it can summon the dead back from the underworld and control them.

Moreover, it has unlimited chakra. Although Uchiha Yoichi did not understand where the chakra of the Edo Tensei body came from, wouldn't unlimited chakra be equivalent to a perpetual motion machine?

Most importantly, the Edo Tensei body doesn't need to sleep or rest. Apart from sealing techniques and Truth-Seeking Balls, there are few techniques that can harm the Edo Tensei body.

Uchiha Yoichi's business is growing, and with the development of the ninja combat suit, he needs many guards to protect it. Meanwhile, the village is facing war, and the Uchiha clan also needs to contribute, so it's impossible to have too many clansmen looking after the business.

If someone with the tainted earth spirit were to protect his businesses, his safety would be greatly enhanced.

Furthermore, all the reanimated bodies do not need to be controlled by Uchiha Yoichi alone. As long as the consciousness of the reanimated bodies is erased, control can be given to clan members such as Tokugawa, Hayato, and Toshiki.

This would weaken the Edo Tensei body, but it would also save Uchiha Yoichi some trouble.

"Um?"

Uchiha Yoichi was on his way home when two people he suddenly encountered interrupted his thoughts.

He knew both of them, but one of them shouldn't be here.

Uchiha Yoichi formed a hand seal and quickly used his sensory ninjutsu. The next second, he sensed that there were four ninjas lurking around the red-haired girl, monitoring her.

So Uchiha Yoichi stepped forward, preparing to let her leave the Uchiha clan's territory.

Ahead, at a house belonging to the Uchiha clan, Kushina Uzumaki and Mikoto Uchiha had just come out of each other's homes. Kushina couldn't help but ask, "Mikoto, everything up ahead was pretty normal, but this amusement park is just too outrageous. Is your Uchiha clan really planning to build it?"

"I don't know, this isn't something I can decide."

Mikoto Uchiha smiled and said softly, "I'm just gathering information; the decision is someone else's."

"Uchiha Yoichi, right? I didn't expect that someone younger than me could make such a big decision. That's great!"

Upon hearing this, Kushina felt a pang of envy. In comparison, she couldn't even decide where she went. She was previously confined to a small area, but now she could move freely in the village, which was something she had earned through hard training.

"Huh? Mikoto, isn't that Uchiha Yoichi?"

Kushina suddenly noticed the young man walking towards them and nudged Mikoto beside her with her elbow, saying, "Although they just met, one is cheerful and the other is gentle, so they get along very well."

Mikoto felt quite depressed about her husband that morning, but after talking to Kushina for a while, she felt much better.

Hearing Kushina's words, Mikoto Uchiha turned her head to look in the direction she was pointing and found that it really was Yoichi Uchiha.

The two women stopped walking and stood there waiting for him to come over.

After the others arrived, before the two women could even speak, Uchiha Yoichi preemptively asked, "Kushina Uzumaki, what brings you to our clan's territory?"

"I came to see Mina, and also to thank you. Why can't I come?"

Kushina sensed that Uchiha Yoichi's tone wasn't very good, and immediately replied somewhat awkwardly. After answering, she stood there like a child who had made a mistake and was waiting to be scolded.

"This is indeed a bit inappropriate. Let me see you out of here first."

Uchiha Yang glanced at it and knew that what he was holding was the work that Uchiha Mikoto was supposed to do, so he reached out, took it, and put it into Uchiha Mikoto's hand.

"Mrs. Mikoto, wait here for me for a while. I'll talk to you about today's events after I've seen Kushina off."

Afterwards, Uchiha Yoichi planned to send Kushina out of the Uchiha clan's territory first. She wanted to go to her own home to find Mina? If she went, there would probably be eight ANBU following and monitoring her.

Seeing that Uchiha Yoichi's expression didn't seem like he was joking, Kushina followed him, though she was filled with resentment.

I originally wanted to chat with Mina, a member of my clan, but on the way here I ran into Mikoto, who was busy. We hit it off, so I helped her out for a while. When I find Mina, I'll thank Uchiha Yoichi, because Kushina heard that he got the method to control the power of the tailed beasts from the Hidden Cloud Village.

She was able to expand her reach through this method, so she wanted to visit and express her gratitude. To thank her today, she brought some snacks, cookies that she had baked herself.

Kushina sullenly recalled the events. She didn't seem to have done anything that would annoy anyone, so why was Uchiha Yoichi in such a hurry to send her away? Even if he didn't like her, wouldn't he even let her and Mikoto stay for a while?

After escorting her to the edge of the clan's territory, Uchiha Yoichi finally spoke, saying, "Mina went to the front lines with the medical team and probably won't be back for a while. No need for thanks; it was just a mission."

"I don't understand, why are you so disgusted with me? What did I do wrong?"

Kushina originally intended to turn around and leave, but she was unconvinced and felt that she wouldn't be able to sleep if she didn't get to the bottom of this.

"You didn't do anything wrong, it's just that I find it troublesome. I know it has nothing to do with you, but I don't want a lot of people watching my house. You know what I mean?"

After Uchiha Yangyi finished speaking, he looked in several other directions.

When Kushina Uzumaki saw Yoichi Uchiha's action, she immediately knew that he was referring to the Anbu who were monitoring her.

Thinking of this, Kushina's resentment immediately dissipated. It seemed that she really couldn't blame the other party. No one likes to be monitored, and she herself hated it. If she went to the other party's house, the Anbu would follow her.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect that."

"It's okay. If you want to find Mina in the future, just go to Konoha Hospital. She usually stays there, but you'll have to wait for her to come back."

After Uchiha Yangyi finished speaking, he prepared to leave, but Kushina suddenly called out, "Wait, wait a minute."

Seeing Uchiha Yoichi turn around, Kushina took out a box from her backpack and handed it to him, saying, "I didn't know Mina went to the front lines. I really wanted to thank you this time, but I didn't expect that the problem was my fault. Please accept this as a thank you gift."

"That won't be necessary."

Please accept this!

Kushina stubbornly repeated herself, then somewhat defiantly prepared to shove the box into Uchiha Yoichi's hand: "Consider it an apology for causing you trouble. Waiting for Mina... Ee-e-e~".

When Kushina handed over the gift box, she accidentally bumped into Uchiha Yoichi's hand. The next second, Kushina suddenly felt a series of electric currents running through her body.

Kushina felt like she was suffocating.

Don't touch other people's bodies without permission.

Uchiha Yoichi clicked his tongue inwardly in amazement. Soon after, four Anbu members appeared beside Kushina. Two checked on Kushina's condition, while the other two stood in front of her, seemingly intending to confront Uchiha Yoichi.

The two ANBU members quickly checked Kushina's condition. The seal had not loosened; however, her face was flushed and her body was trembling slightly. It didn't seem like she was under a genjutsu, as her chakra showed no signs of disorder.

"Kushina Uzumaki, what's wrong?"

"I...I don't know. Okay, it seems like nothing's wrong!"

After a moment of calm, Kushina answered with a touch of embarrassment. Although she had never experienced anything like that, she had secretly read the book that Jiraiya had given to Minato, and quickly realized what had just happened.

It must have been Uchiha Yoichi who did it.

"Is it nothing? But we need to report this to the Hokage."

The ANBU member spoke up, saying, "The seal hasn't loosened, and there's no sign of genjutsu affecting the chakra. It seems like Kushina's body has suddenly developed a problem. Let's go to the hospital for a checkup."

"No, I don't need to go to the hospital, I'm fine! I just had a sudden stomachache, but it's much better now."

Kushina became anxious when she heard that she had to go to the hospital; it would be incredibly embarrassing if the hospital found out that she had suddenly started feeling sick.

The other two Anbu members also said to Uchiha Yoichi, "Uchiha Yoichi, come with me. We need to explain what happened earlier to the Hokage."

"Go with you?"

Upon hearing this commanding tone, Uchiha Yang couldn't help but sneer and say, "Who do you think you are, to think you can make me go with you?"

"Uchiha Yoichi, we are the Hokage's direct subordinate Anbu."

"If you keep talking nonsense to me, you can prepare to leave this place on your knees like dogs."

Uchiha Yoichi's words were extremely impolite, but his pupils had already turned blood red, and at the same time, the three tomoe slowly rotated. The two ANBU members instantly felt a pressure and turned their faces away.

Raiga of Konoha made a name for himself in just one year, completing many extremely difficult missions.

Facing such a powerful opponent, the Anbu felt immense pressure.

"Uchiha Yoichi, we will inform the Hokage about what happened here."

The two ANBU members dared not forcibly take Uchiha Yoichi away, so they could only leave a threat before escorting Kushina away.

Uchiha Yang had no interest in listening to the Anbu's harsh words and turned to leave.
