Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

"Brother Yun is coming this afternoon, I'm determined to show him my talent!"

Sasuke glanced at Naruto and said, "You do have some talent for the Three Body Technique, but I remember the first thing we practiced in our sparring session was throwing shuriken, right?"

???

One sentence was like a sharp knife piercing Naruto's heart.

Shuriken throwing...

Why would something like this exist? Wouldn't it be enough to just practice the Three Bodies Technique?

"Speaking of which, Sasuke's shuriken accuracy and technique are probably the best in our class, right?"

Shikamaru then stabbed him again.

Choji, who was still eating the potato chips he had just bought, continued, "Sasuke is amazing. He's number one in everything, whether it's shurikenjutsu, the Three Body Technique, or the theoretical exams."

Uh!

With a final, decisive blow, Naruto lay flat on his back.

Erzhuzi, standing nearby, then spoke up: "My brother promised to train with me this afternoon, but he stood me up again. Emergency missions? There can't be that many emergency missions!"

These words made Shikamaru think of something, so he replied, "There must have been an emergency mission yesterday. The Jonin-equipped ninja hawks were dispatched, and Dad didn't come home all night."

Jonin gathering?

These words made Naruto, who was lying down, sit up and ask, "The entire village's Jonin have gathered. Has something big happened? Shikamaru, do you know?"

Shikamaru's eye twitched: "You, the son of the Hokage, don't know? How could I possibly know?"

Shikamaru sighed, "We're just little kids in their eyes, how could they possibly tell us? Sasuke's brother probably didn't say anything either."

Erzhuzi snorted coldly, arrogantly indicating that he was so busy being angry that he forgot to ask.

Naruto thought for a moment, then exclaimed in alarm, "If all the Jonin have gone out, doesn't that mean Brother Yun has also gone out on a mission?"

Sasuke, who was standing to the side, raised his head and said, "He didn't go out. I saw him when I went out this morning."

"Huh??"

Naruto was taken aback and asked, "Why? Aren't all the Jonin supposed to be gathered? Isn't Brother Kumo a Jonin?"

Shikamaru, standing to the side, frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "No, Uchiha Kumo was already a Jonin, but he wasn't an ordinary Jonin."

Upon hearing this, Sasuke nodded: "With Brother Yun's power, he is indeed no ordinary Jonin. And such power has never left the village..."

Shikamaru nodded and continued, "Normally, the Hokage stays in the village to defend the rear. But yesterday's Jonin gathering included Sasuke's brother, who also went out on a mission. Under these circumstances, what would force Uchiha Unya to stay in the village?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Naruto, who had already frowned deeply, said in a deep voice, "The Hokage's power is not enough to guarantee the safety of the rear. Brother Yun will stay in the village only if we need to strengthen the forces left behind."

Naruto then looked at Shikamaru and asked, "Am I right?"

Before Shikamaru could answer, Naruto continued, "But we have absolutely no idea what happened."

Shikamaru shook his head and looked towards the classroom: "There's no point in thinking about all this trouble. I think it's not just us who don't know, even Iruka-sensei probably doesn't know what happened either."

"If you don't have the strength, there's no need to know. And for us little guys who haven't officially become ninjas yet, it's even more impossible for us to discover such a secret."

As soon as he finished speaking, a shadow appeared above them.

"If you want to know so much, why not just change yourself into a weakling? If you've always been a weakling, knowing will only lead to your death, right? After all, it's a mission involving a gathering of Jonin."

After the words were spoken, the scene froze.

Weakling?!

Even though it's true, aren't you afraid of getting beaten up for saying it out loud?

"Heh... It seems you, who think of us as weaklings, are quite confident in your own strength!"

Sasuke, who had already stood up, was pulled back by Shikamaru, while Naruto looked at Sai and said, "Your smile... is so fake!"

Sai gestured to the curve of his own lips: "This kind of smile must be very sincere, right? I saw it in a book."

Sai continued, laughing, "Compared to Konoha's hero, Uchiha Kumo, I'm just as weak as he is. But if you want to know the situation, perhaps you could ask him directly later? That's one way, isn't it?"

After he finished speaking, the four of them looked at each other in bewilderment.

That's definitely a good idea...

"call……"

Shikamaru, who was standing to the side, let out a breath and said, "Although I'm also concerned about this because of my dad, he probably won't tell us if we ask him."

Sasuke thought for a moment and said, "Although I don't know what dangerous mission requires gathering all the Jonin, my brother has already gone, so I have to ask Brother Yun."

At this moment, Sai's voice rang out again: "So now that you know, what can you bunch of weaklings do?"

Uh!

In an instant, the word "weakling" reappeared in everyone's mind.

Shikamaru covered his forehead and asked, "Hey, how have you managed to live this long? It's a miracle you haven't been beaten to death because of your mouth, isn't it?"

Sasuke reached out and pulled out a kunai, saying in a deep voice, "Don't hold me back, I'm going to teach this guy a lesson today!"

Sai looked at Erzhuzi and said with a smile, "No one is holding you back right now, but if you take out a kunai, are you trying to kill me? If so... your brother will be very sad to see you in prison."

"Besides... there should be different levels of weaklings, right? I think I'm definitely a lot higher than you in the weakling category."

The moment the words left his mouth, Sasuke, who had only meant to be arrogant and scare Sai, instantly became enraged.

He gripped the kunai tightly in his hand and brought it down with a single strike.

"boom!"

The clanging sound of metal attracted the attention of all the students eating their lunches on the rooftop.

The next moment, Sasuke slid his kunai upwards, flipped over, and kicked off with his feet, heading straight for Sai's chest.

But Sai also dodged, and then three shuriken came flying at him.

"Bang bang bang..."

After knocking them away one by one with kunai, the two began a physical duel about a weakling.

Shikamaru scratched his head, "This seems to be even more troublesome. Why is this kid's mouth so annoying?"

Naruto watched the duel on the field, his heart filled with excitement, and he had already begun cheering for his good brother Sasuke.

Choji even took out a new bag of potato chips and handed it to the other two, saying, "Won't you have some? It's pretty exciting."

Uh!

After a series of exchanges, Erzhuzi's expression gradually became serious.

Having always been number one in his class, he realized for the first time that the person in front of him seemed to have skills and reactions that were even better than his own.

Were all the previous assessments and tests done leniently?

Seemingly noticing Sasuke's confusion, Sai said, "The book says that if you surpass those around you by too much, you should hide your strengths so that you can make more weakling friends."

Erzhuzi didn't hear anything else; only the word "weakling" kept resurfacing in his mind.

"I'll show you who the weakling is!"

The next second, Sasuke's hands quickly formed hand seals: "Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

In an instant, the fireball, carrying immense heat, hurtled towards Sai.

……

Chapter 160: They're all just clowns

"Those are hand seals for a Fire Release ninjutsu. He's already capable of using ninjutsu at this level? That's too reckless!"

Shikamaru spoke urgently, but he was completely helpless in the face of the situation.

The secret techniques of the Nara clan are not something he can use in such a short time right now.

Naruto, who was standing nearby, frowned and shouted at Sai, "Get out of the way!!"

However, Sai remained calm and composed despite the oncoming flames, still wearing a smile.

But just as he was about to make a move, a figure appeared in front of him, and a burst of chakra suddenly erupted.

"Bang!!"

With just a casual strike, he slammed the oncoming fireball to the ground, scattering it in all directions.

However, before the sparks could disperse, a current of air gathered them all together and extinguished them in his hand.

The sudden scene stunned all the students around, followed by cheers.

"He just casually swatted away such a huge fireball, who is he? So cool!"

"So strong, yet they don't look much bigger than us. Why do they look so familiar?"

"That was Uchiha Kumo, the one who single-handedly killed the Fourth Raikage, a hero of the village!"

"The chakra he just used rendered me completely immobile. How could someone like that be here at the school?"

"Who knows? Maybe they're from the same Uchiha clan and came looking for Sasuke."

"That move was so cool! Do you think he would accept you as his apprentice now?"

"Hehe... The line of people wanting to become Master Yun's disciples could stretch all the way to Daming Prefecture. What are you thinking? Go wash up and go to sleep. You can have anything in your dreams."

……

Amid the commotion, Ino, one of the girls, grabbed Sakura's arm: "Did you see that? Did you see that? That's him. His power is no less than Sasuke's looks."

"Only people like that are worth pursuing! That attack just now was absolutely amazing!"

Sakura paused, then looked at Ino and asked, "Are you talking about Lord Yun? But... does he still remember us?"

Ino nodded firmly: "I saw him a few times when I was little. Back then, he would come to my family's flower shop to buy flowers every now and then. My parents said that his talent was terrifying, that he was a real genius!"

Sakura pouted: "Sasuke is the real genius. He's just older than Sasuke. When Sasuke gets that age..."

Ino scoffed, "Brother Yun is only five years older than us. By the time your Sasuke graduates, will he be able to defeat the Kage of other villages?"

Uh!

These words left Sakura speechless. No matter how much she boasted, it seemed that she really couldn't be sure of it, or rather, it was just a pipe dream.
