Naruto: The Iceman of the Senju Family

"Even the Fugaku clan leader can only maintain the status quo?"

Quan groaned.

Itachi remained silent, but his mind immediately flashed to the middle-aged ninja who would sit next to his father at every clan meeting——

Eight generations of Uchiha.

As a veteran Jōnin in the clan and the host of the clan meeting, almost all the emotions of the young clan members were aroused by him!

Sometimes I even see him coming home to look for his father, and occasionally I can hear his passionate voice outside the room where they are having secret conversations, saying things like "The Glory of Uchiha" and "Proud Uchiha".

Although it was rude to think this way, from the current Itachi's point of view, this senior member of the clan whose status was only half as good as his father's was really in a state of madness!

So, what is it that supports Yashiro Uchiha and makes him feel that the current Uchiha can compete with the top management of Konoha and even the entire Konoha Village with the power of a clan?

Just based on those Sharingan eyes at the clan meeting?

Give me a break.

Itachi could say that Yashiro Uchiha was mentally abnormal, but he would never think that the other party was so crazy that he couldn't even distinguish such a comparison of combat power!

'Perhaps there are some secrets hidden in Yashiro Uchiha that even his father doesn't know about...'

If this is the case, can you try to find out what is hidden behind him?

Once it succeeds, there will be no constraints from the radicals led by Uchiha Yashiro, and my father will no longer have to worry so much!

'No... the other party is also a veteran jounin. I am far from being able to conduct an investigation without being discovered by him...'

And if his guess is true, then it is already a serious matter for the Uchiha clan!

'Perhaps it would be better to discuss it with Shisui...'

"Well, that's all I have to say."

Seeing Itachi's mental state suddenly trembled, although it was unclear what he had figured out, Senju Maysuki also felt that he had said enough today.

After all, smart people are generally more willing to trust their own analysis and judgment. No matter how much you say, it is better to give a clue in the direction and let him investigate on his own.

And to be honest, from a personal point of view, what will happen to the Uchiha clan has no impact on him at all.

The reason why I go through so much trouble to do this is all for the sake of Quan's safety~

After all, if Uchiha is really allowed to develop according to the original plot, the night of genocide will be a trivial matter. The key is that this guy Itachi asked this idiot Obito for help!

And he can't stare at Itachi every day~

After all, you can only be a thief for a thousand days, so how can you guard against a thief for a thousand days~

If I miss the time and Izumi dies in Obito's hands, it will be too late to regret it!

So, after his eyes moved, he suddenly wanted to dig a hole for Danzo to hold his hair in his mouth.

"Finally, let me tell you a question that I already have an answer to, but I think it's best for you to investigate and find out the result yourself."

"?"

Itachi still cherished words like gold, but the look on his face was much better than when they first met. Obviously, today's operation had some effect on his heart~

"That is, besides the obstacles within the clan, who else is targeting Uchiha? What is his purpose?"

After saying this, it was as if he had just come to his senses.

"Ah, these seem to be two questions~ However, I think for you, these two questions can actually be regarded as the same one, what do you think?"

"..."

weasel...

Forget it, just think of him as a cold mute.

In short, after listening to these two questions, although Itachi still didn't speak, the fist hanging by his side suddenly clenched, and his whole spirit seemed much sharper!

'Since he said he already has the answer, that means that there really is such a person...! '

As for why I didn’t doubt the authenticity of this sentence, or maybe the other party was joking~

This is the same as why Senju Mayuki came to him to talk about these things instead of going directly to his father Uchiha Fugaku~

There is always a tacit understanding between geniuses that needs no explanation! (Yeah...)

******

Five days later, the Country of Grass.

After leaving Konoha Village, Ye Cang, who was thinking about Senju Mayuki's mission, sent Sisel back to Tonika Village as quickly as possible, and then found a random reason to leave again, heading straight for the Country of Grass. Go quickly all the way.

Since the clothes he was wearing were completely different from before, and he didn't want to cause too much trouble before completing the mission, he didn't have any arguments with anyone along the way, and he didn't attract anyone's attention.

Then she sometimes pretended to visit relatives and sometimes pretended to be a tourist. She spent more than ten days searching within the Country of Grass before she accidentally saw a pale and frail middle-aged woman on the edge of the Grass Hidden Village.

Best of all, her hair is red!

And she is also the first person with red hair that Ye Cang has seen in the more than ten days since he entered the Country of Grass!

'Red hair...Uzumaki clan...'

Feeling that something was going on, Ye Cang did not startle, but followed the red-haired middle-aged woman all the way back to her home.

When he saw the girl who opened the door for her, and especially when he heard the middle-aged woman weakly call her "香phosphorus", he finally confirmed that his mission goal was right in front of him!

"Auntie? Who are you looking for?"

Uzumaki Kaoru, who was about to close the door, saw Ye Cang suddenly appearing in front of the door. She couldn't help but asked politely, and then looked at her mother,

"Are you mom's friend?"

"Hang Phosphorus, who are you talking to?"

The middle-aged woman who had just entered to go back to the house to rest had to turn around and walk out again when she heard her daughter's voice, because she knew that she and her daughter had no one to communicate with here.

"you are?"

"I'm passing through and I'm a little thirsty. Can I come in for a drink of water?"

It was not until this moment that Ye Cang discovered, under close observation, that this middle-aged woman was not only weak, but also that the palms of her hands, the backs of her arms and neck...all the exposed skin were covered with horrific teeth marks!

There were even mottled blood stains around some of the marks, making her look as if she had just come out of some reincarnation hell!

"what……"

The middle-aged woman seemed to be very concerned about Ye Cang's gaze. After a quick glance to see that she didn't hide any weapons or anything like that, she nodded evasively.

"Please come in first, and I'll pour you some tea."

After saying that, he hurriedly turned around and walked out of Ye Cang's sight.

"Please come in, aunt~"

Ye Cang: (?Д?*)?!

Don't go too far!

If it weren’t for the fact that you are the target of the mission, believe it or not, I would (╯°Д°)╯︵┻━┻ right now!!!

After entering the house, Ye Cang discovered that this so-called home turned out to be just an empty shell. Apart from the facilities needed for eating and sleeping, there was not even a complete and decent table.

"Hello, my home is simple, so I have to let you use our tea bowl~"

"It's okay. Thank you very much for having water to drink~"

When he took the tea bowl, Ye Cang keenly discovered that the tooth marks on this middle-aged woman were obviously not caused at once, but there were new ones and old ones. The old ones had scabbed off and turned into a white mark, while the new ones were. There are still little bits of blood oozing out.

"Uh……"

Noticing her gaze, Xiang Ling's mother hurriedly put the tea bowl on the table with a corner missing. She herself took a few steps back covertly, kneeling in the shadow of the stove and not daring to look at anyone. ——

It can be seen that she is very tired, but she is not worried about her daughter facing strangers alone, so she has to hold on here even if it is so embarrassing.

"..."

At this time, although it was not known what caused her injuries, it did not affect Ye Cang's ability to see the situation of the two of them in Caoyin Village.

Seeing Xiang Lian's mother in such embarrassment because she was concerned about the tooth marks on her body, Ye Cang felt pity and had no choice but to turn his attention to Xiang Lian, who was looking at him curiously.

"Little sister, is your name Xiang Phosphorus?"

"Yes aunt~"

"..."

(╯｀Van′)╯︵┻━┻︵┯━┯︵┻━┻!!!
