Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

practice?

"Well. Don't look at me like that. Yun said not to tell anyone else. Anyway, it's just a normal cultivation practice."

Jiraiya then nudged Kakashi on the shoulder: "I heard that many other ninja villages will be coming this time? And all sorts of special features... Hehe! You know what I mean..."

Kakashi glanced at it: "If you get caught again, Lady Tsunade and Yun are both in the village."

Uh!

Waving his hand, Jiraiya said righteously, "I've already given it up."

He then glanced at the three people below who were wading through the water and picking up trash. Sai and Torane clearly had prior training and were doing it with ease. The other girl also showed great talent in chakra manipulation.

"It seems that person's return has had a significant impact on you..."

Kakashi tensed slightly: "Did you say that, teacher? This situation still needs to be kept secret for now. You should know why."

Jiraiya sighed.

"So you two are the same. If I hadn't recognized that brat and he hadn't already returned to the village, I doubt Minato would have told me this information."

"You are more humane than the old man, but if the other four great ninja villages find out about this, Konoha will become the target of everyone's criticism."

"Where's that brat Uchiha Yun? Didn't he say anything?"

……

Chapter 335: Arrangements for the Three Little Ones

Only a handful of people knew that Obito Uchiha had returned to Konoha, since he always wore a mask and half of his face was disfigured.

However, Jiraiya remained extremely cautious about this matter ever since he learned about it.

After learning that the masked man was Obito Uchiha, many things started to make sense.

Understanding love and then losing it—from Obito's angry words to Minato thirteen years ago, it's not hard to see what kind of love he lost.

Nohara Lin......

Too many people know about the Uchiha clan's mental illness; from the Third Hokage to the Legendary Sannin, everyone has heard of it.

It was only ten years ago, when Uchiha Yun subverted the concept, that the Uchiha truly developed a diversity of bonds, no longer limited to a single individual.

"Kumo should know the Uchiha clan best. He's someone who wants to destroy the world, so keeping him in the village is the biggest danger."

Jiraiya looked at Kakashi and said, "Although the old man has done many wrong things, sometimes a dark presence can indeed solve some problems in these situations."

After a long silence, Kakashi said expressionlessly, "You shouldn't be telling me this."

"understood."

Jiraiya put away his serious expression and smiled: "It seems I can't persuade Minato, and I can't persuade you either. The two of you are the key to protecting him. Minato is the Hokage, and I have no right to interfere with his decision."

With a wave of his hand, Jiraiya vanished in an instant.

Kakashi looked at his three students, and memories from long ago flooded his mind.

Minato-sensei must feel some guilt, right?

And what about yourself?

If only I had understood the importance of teamwork from the beginning, if only I had accompanied Obito to rescue Rin from the start, and if only I had made a detailed plan.

Then Obito might not have been trapped under the boulder, and if the three of them had worked together afterward, Rin might not have been captured...

Obito... wouldn't be like this now. Even if he came back, no one would trust him.

Let's go to the memorial again tonight; I still need to buy a bouquet of chrysanthemums...

……

under night.

Jiraiya and Tsunade were drinking in the izakaya, while Shizune was happily eating with Ton-Ton in her arms.

"You should have paid off all the money you owed by now, right?"

Tsunade glanced at Jiraiya: "I've already paid it all off. What? Can't I stay in the village? This is the village my grandfather founded."

Jiraiya chuckled after being teased: "Yeah, who wouldn't like a village so different from the one I was when I was Hokage?"

Tsunade frowned: "What exactly are you trying to say?"

After a moment of silence, Jiraiya recounted Obito's return to Konoha.

Shizune, who had been listening nearby, had lost her appetite and hurriedly grabbed Tsunade's arm, saying, "That guy's target is definitely the Nine-Tails, Lady Tsunade! We have to tell the Hokage right away..."

Tsunade waved her hand to put Shizune back down and smiled: "What you can think of, Minato and that wretched brat Yun can't?"

Tsunade looked directly at Jiraiya and said, "All these years, your mission has been to search for the Akatsuki and Orochimaru, and you've been wandering around aimlessly. If one day you really do capture Orochimaru, are you going to send him back to die?"

???

As the person who knows him best, just one sentence from him left Jiraiya speechless.

Sometimes, so-called clarity of mind is just about standing from the perspective of an outsider. If it were Orochimaru, would I kill him? Would the old man make a move?

"call……"

After letting out a breath, Jiraiya suddenly raised his glass with a grin: "You've finally come back, so let's not bring up such heavy topics... Come on, let's drink!"

After downing a glass of wine, Jiraiya said to Shizune beside him, "This matter is currently top secret, and we cannot tell anyone."

Tsunade thought for a moment and said, "I am only the head of the treatment department at Konoha Hospital right now. Minato is the Hokage, so don't do anything unnecessary."

After a few drinks, Tsunade asked Jiraiya about the purpose of his return.

"Sage Mode? Isn't this training a bit too early for Naruto?"

Jiraiya nodded: "I also think it's a bit early, but Yun said to get used to it first, since the training time for Sage Mode is not short."

After a moment's thought, Tsunade frowned: "We were still a bit too hasty. It seems that Minato and the others have discovered something. You and I both know very well the formation and future of Team 7."

Jiraiya scratched his head: "If Naruto can fully control the Nine-Tails now, there won't be many in the entire ninja world who can stand against him. If that's still not enough, then worrying won't do any good."

After a moment of silence, the topic was once again put aside.

……

The next morning.

Of the three kids in Team 7 who got up early to assemble, only Naruto was still yawning, clearly exhausted from a week of special training.

For example, I dreamt that I was dominating the Chunin Exams, and my dad and Brother Kumo were begging me to succeed him as the Fifth Hokage. It was so awesome...

"boom."

A sharp pain in his forehead instantly snapped Naruto back to reality, and he clutched his forehead, wincing in pain.

Yun smiled and said, "He's like he hasn't slept all day long. Look at your brother-in-law!"

Although the entire Class 7 looked into the distance, they saw Guy leading his three students in special training, and even Neji was running with weights.

"Rock Lee..."

Sasuke murmured to himself.

That duel made him tone down some of his pride and realize that if he didn't work hard, he might really be defeated by the bottom-ranked student.

“The class led by Guy will also participate in the Chunin Exams this time, so I said you guys are not without suspense. At least that kid’s Eight Gates technique has improved since last time.”

A step forward?

After opening the fifth gate, the Gate of Closure, even the eyes of a three-tomoe expert had some difficulty capturing it. Could it be that it has already been able to open the sixth gate?

Naruto, standing nearby, was equally worried: "Has that little brow improved again? If that's the case, it's really going to be dangerous."

Yun smiled and replied, "He hasn't reached the point where he can open the sixth gate yet. It's just that his physical abilities have improved, so the damage from opening the fifth gate is much less."

Hinata whispered, "Even at the level of the Fifth Gate, that kind of power is definitely not something a genin can withstand, especially with Neji-nii also involved..."

Naruto was taken aback: "Is my brother-in-law that powerful?"

Hinata, blushing slightly, replied, "Neji-nii not only mastered the Rotation Technique, but he's also gradually mastering the Empty Palm technique recently, and it's very powerful."

At this moment, Uchiha Yun clapped his hands.

"Don't worry, because a portion of your power will be sealed, each village will send its most elite genin to participate in the Chunin Exams."

"For example, you should know Gaara, the Jinchuriki of the One-Tailed Beast who was brought here by the Fourth Kazekage last time."

"Oh, and by the way, just a heads up, Gaara is now a perfect Jinchūriki. Because of me, Shukaku acknowledged him after we went back last time."

As soon as he finished speaking, the three little devils were stunned.

As a perfect Jinchūriki himself, Naruto knew very well just how strong this power was.

If Gaara can also withstand the power of the Tailed Beasts, then what's the point of us fighting?

Furthermore, according to Brother Yun, Team 7 will be surrounded and attacked by everyone. In this situation, why not surround and attack the One-Tailed Jinchuriki?

"The power of the One-Tailed Beast is vastly different from that of the Nine-Tailed Beast. In addition, I have prepared special training for each of you for the time to come."

As Yun looked at the time, she realized that, sure enough, the white-haired guy was always late, and quite lewd at that.

We can only arrange for Sasuke and Hinata first.

"Sasuke, you need to learn the nature transformation of Lightning Release chakra. As for the use of the three-tomoe Sharingan and Fire Release, Itachi will guide you."

Sasuke paused for a moment, then asked, "Won't you be teaching me personally, Sensei? If it's the three-tomoe form, Sensei can do that too, right?"

Yun shrugged: "One person teaching three people at a time can't cover everything. Your Lightning Release chakra will be taught by Kakashi, the Jonin who is in charge of Team 9. Naruto will be taken away soon too."

"The power contained within Hinata is very special, so I will be in charge of her special training from now on."

Sasuke glanced at Naruto upon hearing this. Although he was somewhat displeased, he couldn't very well argue with Hinata.

In fact, even now, he still doesn't really want to face Itachi, because every time he faces him, he will be facing those eyes that he wanted to give to him.

Sasuke waved and went to find Kakashi.

In the morning, he practiced the transformations of lightning-style chakra, and in the afternoon, Itachi instructed him on the use of the Sharingan and Fire Release.

After watching Sasuke leave, Yun turned her gaze to Naruto.

The fates of these two main characters haven't changed much in a long time. After this Chunin Exams, it's uncertain whether Naruto's side will be able to reach 100%.
