Konoha: This Uchiha is going a bit too far.

Chapter 36: Hagoromo, Who is she? (Please continue reading)

Yuzhi has mastered the art of speaking human language to human beings and ghost language to ghosts.

When facing that old guy Uchiha Setsuna, Yuzhi would naturally just have to play along for a bit.

His mission required him to eliminate the old man, and at the same time, he also needed to take action against the clan chief.

So why not find a way to let them fight like dogs, and then find an opportunity to bury them all one by one?

"Some things require patience, and I also need to have my own kaleidoscope to control the situation."

Although Uchiha Hikaru possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan, this girl is too extreme.

Who knows when she might have a mental breakdown and I might be in trouble.

As the saying goes, a tall building starts from the ground up, and great success or failure depends on oneself. Yuzhi naturally prefers to rely on her own efforts!

"However, there were some gains today as well."

Today he planted a seed in Uchiha Setsuna's heart beforehand, but he's still unsure of the effect.

The reason why this matter was resolved so easily in the original work is most likely because rumors of a change of Hokage had surfaced.

Fugaku Uchiha wanted to run for office himself, which silenced the other voices.

Although Minato Namikaze ultimately rose to power "accidentally," he was Kakashi's teacher!

"There's probably already some word about it, and I don't know how it will be if I say this in advance."

Yuzhi hasn't been in Konoha recently, so she doesn't know much about the situation there.

However, tomorrow's funeral might provide some answers.

After all, in his memory, the first time Fugaku Uchiha seemed to express his desire to become Hokage was at a funeral.

With those thoughts in mind, Yuzhi had already arrived at her home.

However, when he entered the room, he found Uchiha Hikaru sitting on the ground, dazed and confused.

However, Hikaru was very alert, so she immediately looked up. When she saw that the person who came was Hagoromo, her alertness dissipated considerably.

"You're back so soon?"

She forced herself to sit up straight before asking the question.

"Um."

Yuzhi nodded, and only spoke after closing the door.

"If you're tired, take a rest."

Although Hikari Yuchiha didn't participate in the battle these days, her nerves were constantly on edge, and any slight movement could bring her back to her senses.

In addition, she had just been dug out, and there were no good conditions in the wild for her to fully recover, so it can be said that her condition had been very bad.

Not to mention her, even Yuzhi herself is on guard against her suddenly falling ill, and doesn't dare to rest properly at all.

However, over the past few days he has become certain that although the girl is rather extreme and crazy, she is not yet beyond reason.

"However, how exactly did the Uchiha clan treat her a hundred years ago?"

Yuzhi had always been curious about this, and she talked about some of her past, but she just glossed over most of it.

This left Yuzhi somewhat helpless, but she didn't inquire about it; forcibly reopening old wounds wasn't a good thing.

Perhaps in the future, she'll speak up when she wants to.

"I'm fine." Uchiha Hikaru shook his head. "This situation is different for me."

"I told you, you should rest if you're tired."

But before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Yuzhi.

"What can you do in this state? I'm afraid you can't do anything."

Her words made her purse her lips. She didn't speak, but instead looked up and met her gaze.

Her appearance left Yuzhi both amused and exasperated, and in the end, Yuzhi could only speak with a serious expression.

"I know you probably don't trust me, and you don't trust the current situation either."

But as I said, you are no longer in darkness, and I also said that you can settle down and stay here.

You are following the footsteps of the light, so why not let yourself truly feel that 'light'?

At this point, Yuzhi stopped talking.

Looking at Guang, his eyes seemed to flicker slightly, and he knew that his words had been taken to heart.

He was also somewhat helpless, wondering why it was like coaxing a child.

Fortunately, his "talking skills" have always been good, otherwise he wouldn't have so many friends, or even just some superficial brothers.

"So don't worry, you can rest assured with me here."

Yuri squatted down, thought for a moment, and then tentatively put his hand on Hikaru's shoulder. Seeing that Hikaru did not resist, he continued to speak.

"I know that trust is not easy to build, and becoming partners is even more difficult."

But why don't we try to get to know each other? That way, we can at least start as friends, right?

Hearing Yuzhi's words, Hikari's gaze became even more complicated, and after a while she murmured softly.

"Friends?"

-

The next morning, Yuki, dressed in black, walked out of the Uchiha clan.

Attending a funeral requires necessary preparations, and wearing black makes the occasion more solemn.

I looked up at the sky; it was overcast and might rain soon.

However, this kind of weather is perfect for holding some funeral ceremonies.

Fortunately, Yuri wasn't in too bad a mood, even though he was forced to sleep on the floor last night.

"I never expected that after returning home, I would feel almost the same as when I was on the battlefield or outside."

I think my "talk-no-jutsu" performance yesterday was pretty good; maybe one of my sentences just hit a nerve with Uchiha Hikaru.

She did lower her guard after that, but that also caused her to fall into a deep sleep very quickly.

Looking at the sleeping girl, Yuzhi could only put her on the bed and go to make a makeshift bed on the floor herself.

"Forget it, I'll just have to wait and buy another bed later."

Although his home has limited space, he might be able to squeeze in another bed.

Muttering to himself, he slowly walked toward the cemetery, encountering many ninjas dressed in black along the way.

Upon seeing Yuzhi, some people nodded politely, while others merely glanced at him and hurried away.

Yuzhi didn't pay attention to these things, and soon he met his acquaintance.

"Haori, over here, over here!"

Kai spotted Yuzhi from afar and waved in their direction.

His voice also drew the attention of Kakashi, Aoba, Nohara Rin, and others who were standing nearby.

"You've come too."

Yuzhi walked over, smiled, and greeted them. Since they were all classmates, she naturally felt much more relaxed together.

"I never expected that you, who weren't much of a student in school, would change so much on the battlefield."

Asuma looked at the haori with curiosity, and there seemed to be some disbelief on his face.

Although he is the second child in his family and has a somewhat unconventional personality, he is also an excellent student as the son of the Hokage.

He had a good relationship with Yuri at school, but he was also Yuri's superficial brother.

"Haori is very strong. If it weren't for her rescue, we probably wouldn't have made it back."

Rin walked to Yuzhi's side and said with a smile, while Kakashi nodded in agreement.

Hong and Hongdou also gathered around, looking at the haori with curiosity.

"It was just good luck. If Jonin Minato hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid..."

While being flattered by these future leaders of Konoha, Hagoromo maintained a necessary level of humility.

Being too low-key might make people look down on you, but being too arrogant will make people dislike you even more.

"Haori, I haven't seen you these past few days. What have you been up to?"

Kai asked curiously, as he hadn't seen Yuzhi for a while.

"He went out on a mission."

Before Yuzhi could speak, Anko spoke first.

She was also very familiar with Yuri; they had teamed up together for a mission in the Land of Whirlpools before.

"And he also ran into Jiraiya-sama; they came back together."

Asma, who was clearly well-informed, shrugged and said something along with him.

"Honestly, why didn't you call me?"

Upon hearing this, Kai couldn't help but speak up, and Qingye, who hadn't said anything, also turned to look at him.

"Please, he's on a mission with a girl from his tribe, how could he possibly go with you?"

Asuma smiled nonchalantly, but as soon as he finished speaking, he noticed that everyone seemed to fall silent.

Because Guy, Kakashi, Aoba, and Rin all turned their attention to Haori.

After a long while, Lin finally smiled and asked.

"Haori, who is she? Didn't she come today?"

It's time to prepare for departure, Madara and Obito are ready, and the protagonist will also awaken his Sharingan.

However, the question of what the protagonist's kaleidoscope ability is is a bit of a headache.

As a newbie, I'm begging you to follow along! Following along now will determine everything about a book; neglecting a book too long can easily kill it.

Thank you all, Onz
