I, Hikaru Uchiha, join the chat group

Of course Uchiha Hikari will not "fly the Thunder God".

But from a ninja's perspective, the "shuttle" function of the chat group is really a bit like the Flying Thunder God.

Besides...

She did learn Namikaze Minato's other famous ninjutsu, not long ago——

"This ninjutsu shouldn't be unfamiliar to you, right?"

While speaking, Uchiha Hikaru raised his right hand again. As the chakra condensed, a small ball gradually formed in the palm of his hand, making a small buzzing sound.

"Rasengan!?"

"Minato actually taught you this technique?!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was startled and subconsciously turned his head to look to his side.

The expression on Jiraiya's face was even more solemn.

——As the person who has witnessed the entire development process of the Rasengan and is the only person who can use it in the ninja world today, he is the most capable of distinguishing the authenticity of the ninjutsu in front of him.

"It's actually a Rasengan..."

"Minato, he is really still..."

Halfway through his words, Jiraiya paused and found that he couldn't find a suitable adjective.

What kind of state is it to be in the belly of death?

"...Although I don't know how you met Minato, Miss Uchiha Hikari, but he is willing to teach you these two ninjutsu, so he must have great trust in you. In this case, I will not say more. What's the matter? I just hope that for the sake of friendship, you can take care of Naruto and don't let him go astray."

After a long while, Jiraiya said slowly in a solemn tone.

"Ok?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly turned his head to look at Jiraiya - is this different from what they had discussed in advance?

Uchiha Hikaru, who was opposite, raised his eyebrows: "Don't you plan to take back Naruto's custody when you come here this time? Well, it doesn't matter, I will move out from here after a while. ”

This decision was not made on the spur of the moment.

Previously, Uchiha Hikari had just come to Konoha and had nowhere else to go, so he stayed at Naruto's house temporarily through a deal with the Fourth Generation.

but now.

She was already quite wealthy, and had acquired a lot of new gadgets through traveling around the world several times. It was a bit inconvenient to live in such a small apartment that was closely watched by ANBU.

"move out?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced in the direction of the kitchen, a little hesitant: "Then Naruto..."

"Naruto has enough ability to take care of himself now. He can take care of his own life even without me taking care of him."

Uchiha Hikari paused for a moment, then narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen in front of him: "But I suggest you, don't forcefully instill in him your values ​​that you can't even explain clearly, especially what." Will of Fire'."

"..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen held it in a few times, but finally couldn't hold it back: "Miss Hikari, do you have any prejudice against the Will of Fire?"

"puff--"

Uchiha Hikari couldn't help but laugh: "Stereotype?"

"Sarutobi kid, let me ask you. If I never show up in Konoha Village from beginning to end, how are you going to deal with the Uchiha clan?"

"This one……"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was a little confused about the purpose of this question: "The hypothesis you mentioned does not exist, but if that situation does arise, the top management of Konoha will of course focus on appeasement and strive to use negotiation. Peaceful solution..."

"Oh?"

The smile on Uchiha Hikari's face became more obvious: "The so-called comfort means arranging the ANBU to monitor closely, allowing the root to cause trouble in private, but hiding in the office and ignoring it?

When they are unable to escape the suspicion of planning the Nine-Tails Rebellion and are dissatisfied with their current treatment situation, given the character of the Uchiha clan, what kind of action do you think they will take? And when that time comes, how will you respond? "

In fact, at this point in time, the conflict between the Uchiha clan and Konoha is already quite acute.

If Uchiha Hikari didn't appear.

Then within these few months, the conflict between the two sides will intensify to a climax, forcing Shisui to confess his "Belt God" ability to the top management of Konoha, which will arouse Danzo's covetousness, and his eyes will be gouged and he will fall into the river. Forcibly interrupt the Uchiha clan's rebellion plan, and wait until two years later, and then the two fifth-year-olds Itachi and Obito will join forces to exterminate the clan.

Others may not know this.

But as the Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had arranged for ANBU to closely monitor Uchiha's movements several years ago, should know it all too well.

"This……"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was already sweating profusely.

In front of the grandmother of the Uchiha clan, he did not dare to say many things too directly.

After mumbling for a long time, Sarutobi Hiruzen said as tactfully as possible: "If the Uchiha clan really turns against Konoha, then the higher-ups may urge Fugaku to punish the few leaders of the rebellion. After all, what they have done Because, it has indeed endangered the safety of the village..."

"Oh."

"It turns out that an unfounded crime can be used as the reason for the destruction of a clan; just trying to improve unfair treatment is endangering the safety of the village.

If the person who caused the Nine-Tails Rebellion was a person who transplanted Senju Hashirama's cells, or a person who transplanted the Byakugan who was living outside...then the Senju clan, the Hyuga clan, or even the Inarakacho and Sarutobi clans, Will he also reach the point of 'opposing Konoha'? "

Uchiha Hikaru's tone gradually became colder: "Let me put it bluntly, is the 'Konoha' in your eyes the people who make up this village, or the village itself? The so-called 'Will of Fire', after all, is the 'Guardian of Konoha' ', or 'Konoha Supreme'? When did a village built to protect important people turn into abandoning important people to protect the interests of the village? Can a village without people still be called a village? ?”

"..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen opened his mouth, confused by this series of rhetorical questions: "But... it has always been like this, and other ninja villages are also..."

"It's always been like this, right?"

Uchiha Hikaru interrupted him unceremoniously: "If everything is still the same as when the village was founded and the Warring States Period, then what is the point of Konoha's appearance?"

"Whether it is Naruto or anyone else, they are essentially a person first, and secondly, they are Konoha villagers, ninjas, or anything else. As humans, we are not born in this world to be igniters. Firewood!”

"..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to say that Uchiha Hikari was being sophistical.

But at this moment, he couldn't find a point to refute.

The "will of fire" that had been said countless times in front of the ninja school, ANBU, jounin class, and even the villagers of Konoha suddenly seemed a little empty.

Jiraiya, on the other hand, opened his eyes wide and looked at Uchiha Hikaru carefully with rare serious eyes, as if he was looking at a complete stranger.
