Also, let's arrange for them to be placed closer to Naruto. Karin is essentially Naruto's aunt, and Naruto is, after all, the Fourth Hokage's child. Konoha has been neglecting Naruto too much in this regard. Placing Karin next to him would allow her to take care of him.
Furthermore, even if Karin knew Naruto was a Jinchuriki, she wouldn't discriminate against him. This arrangement also provides an explanation to the Fourth Hokage.
When the Third Hokage heard what Uchiha Kakuyama said, he opened his mouth as if to say something. After all, he had made Naruto suffer so much and caused everyone to reject him, so that he could occupy an important position in Naruto's world and ensure that even if Naruto, the Jinchuriki, grew up, he would still obey him.
If Karin Uzumaki were placed next to Naruto, given that they are both from the Uzumaki clan and that Karin Uzumaki and Kushina Uzumaki have a close relationship, Karin would definitely treat Naruto like her own son. In that case, Karin would quickly replace the Third Hokage in Naruto's heart, which would be detrimental to the Third Hokage's future plans.
However, the Third Hokage opened his mouth but did not utter a word of objection. His life was now in the hands of Uchiha Kakuzan. If he told Uchiha Kakuzan his reasons for opposing him and his despicable and selfish plans, it would only expose his ugly heart to Uchiha Kakuzan and give him another reason to kill him. It would not serve any purpose.
Finally, the Third Hokage could only mutter a silent "uh-huh" to indicate that he understood.
Uchiha Kakuyama glanced at the Third Hokage. He already knew about the Third Hokage's scheme, but he was too lazy to expose him.
As for Naruto Uzumaki, he truly felt that Naruto had suffered a lot. As the son of the Fourth Hokage, he not only did not enjoy any special treatment from a young age, but he was also schemed against by the Third Hokage and Danzo Shimura. He grew up in misery.
Look at Konohamaru, the grandson of the Third Hokage. Goodness, he's worlds apart from Naruto. Not only does the whole village know he's the grandson of the Third Hokage and tolerate him in every way, but even before he started school, they arranged for a special Jonin who was good at teaching to be his tutor.
And what about Naruto? As the son of the Fourth Hokage, not only is his life insecure and he eats expired food, but the people around him also hate him and even abuse him. That's Naruto. If you were the protagonist, you would have turned evil long ago, transformed into the Nine-Tails, and razed the entire Hidden Leaf Village to the ground.
Uchiha Kakuzan doesn't actually oppose privilege, because wherever there are people, there will be privilege. Whether in the Uchiha clan or in Konoha Village, Uchiha Kakuzan can be considered a privileged person.
What Uchiha Kakuzan resented was that while you were making clear arrangements for your grandson, providing him with all sorts of privileged education, you were also raising the hero's son to be your tool. That was what chilled Uchiha Kakuzan's heart.
Therefore, Uchiha Kagami arranged for Uzumaki Kaoru and her daughter to live near Uzumaki Naruto, which could be considered as some compensation for Naruto.
Moreover, he also wanted to see if Naruto, now that he had Karin, his childhood friend, would still be hung up on that so-called Sakura.
After Uchiha Kagami finished arranging things for Uzumaki Kaoru and her daughter, as well as Naruto, he was in a bad mood and asked the Third Hokage impatiently, "Is there anything else? If not, I'll head back."
When the Third Hokage heard that Uchiha Kazuyama wanted to go back, he quickly said, "Kakayama-kun, I have copied all the materials you asked me to prepare. They are ready and in the secret room. Please wait a moment, and I will get them for you right away."
After the Third Hokage finished speaking, without waiting for Uchiha Kakuzan's reaction, he put down his pipe, got up, and went to the secret room behind him.
Uchiha Kakuyama watched as the Third Hokage made five trips back and forth before finally bringing out the dozen or so scrolls he had prepared, each the size of the Scroll of Seals, filling the Hokage's office desk to the brim.
After the Third Hokage brought over all the materials, he began to introduce them to Uchiha Kakuzan: "This time, I've copied all the materials from the village, including all the village's ninjutsu, secret techniques, prescription medicines, introductions to various bloodline limits, the ninjutsu and secret techniques that each clan specializes in, barrier techniques, medical ninjutsu, sensory ninjutsu, and the Wood Release ninjutsu left behind by the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju. It covers everything. In addition, I've collected information about the ninja world, secrets, and the strength and ninjutsu of various forces."
Uchiha Okazan was very pleased to see that the Third Hokage had collected such comprehensive information. This time, the Third Hokage had compiled all the information left by the Senju clan, the information from Konoha Village, and the information from various clans in the village over the years, and made copies for Uchiha Okazan.
With this information, even if the entire Hidden Leaf Village were destroyed, Uchiha Kakuzan could still reconstruct the village in great detail.
Since these scrolls are all sealed scrolls, the information sealed inside is actually much more than he saw, so it is impossible for Uchiha Kakuzan to seal them all in one scroll and take them away.
Since there was no one else around except the Third Hokage, who was still under the control of his Kotoamatsukami and wouldn't reveal his secrets, Uchiha Kakuzan directly activated his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan and used the Dojutsu Takamagahara to teleport all the documents the Third Hokage had placed on the table to a pre-prepared room in the villa on Takamagahara Island.
The Third Hokage, a seasoned and cunning old fox, recognized the ninjutsu Uchiha Kakuzan used when he teleported the scroll on the table away. However, even with his experience and composure, he couldn't help but gasp: "Hiss, space-time ninjutsu!!"
Chapter 83 Silly girl Maoyue Xiyan
Chapter 83 Silly Girl Uzuki Yugao
When the Third Hokage saw Uchiha Kakuzan move all the scrolls off the table, he gasped, "Hiss, space-time ninjutsu!"
It's important to understand that while the Third Hokage might not be considered top-tier in terms of raw strength, his knowledge and insight were absolutely unparalleled.
The Third Hokage hadn't expected that Uchiha Kakuzan not only possessed top-tier genjutsu capable of silently controlling them, but was also proficient in space-time ninjutsu.
You should know that in the ninja world, anything involving space-time ninjutsu is considered extremely advanced. No matter how strong you are, if you master space-time ninjutsu, your strength will definitely increase by at least two levels.
Even if you're not good at fighting, your ability to escape and survive will make you one of the best in the ninja world.
Just like the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, who was proficient in space-time ninjutsu—the Flying Thunder God Technique—his death was caused by using the forbidden technique, the Reaper Death Seal, not to be with his wife or fulfill his responsibilities as Hokage. It's fair to say that in the ninja world at that time, no one could kill him if he didn't want to.
Just as the Third Hokage was lost in thought, Uchiha Kakuzan had already swept all the scrolls off his desk. He looked up at the Third Hokage, who was still in a state of shock, and instructed him, "Keep the fact that I know space-time ninjutsu a secret. Don't tell anyone."
The Third Hokage gave Uchiha Kakuyama a deep look after hearing his words and nodded in agreement. He hadn't expected Uchiha Kakuyama to be so cunning; he and Shimura Danzo had indeed met their demise.
Uchiha Kakuyama stretched, wanting to go back and rest early, and also to visit Mikoto-nee. He hadn't seen Mikoto-nee in so long, and wondered how she was doing.
The Third Hokage also noticed that Uchiha Kakuyama seemed to be leaving, so he kept it brief:
"Kiu-san, the information on Shimura Danzo is ready. Would you like to go there yourself, or have him deliver the information directly to us?"
Uchiha Kakuzan was taken aback. He hadn't expected Danzo to be prepared as well. Danzo had a lot of experimental data that wasn't easy to organize. It seemed that Danzo had a habit of organizing data beforehand, otherwise, organizing experimental data would be very troublesome.
Uchiha Kakuyama then said, "Let him send the information to you. I won't go to his shady place. If I see anything that makes me uncomfortable, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself and will just kill him."
The Third Hokage nodded in understanding. He also disliked going to the Root base; each visit reminded him of his former beloved disciple Orochimaru, causing him heartache.
The Third Hokage continued, "Also, Danzo has ordered Yakushi Nonou, who is currently on a mission, to return. She is expected to be back in about two weeks. As for the follow-up to the Cloud Village's secret technique, 'Lightning Release Armor,' there are still no clues."
Uchiha Kakuyama nodded and instructed, "When Yakushi Nonou returns, have her leave Root and come directly to me to report. Destroy all her records."
"As for the future of the Lightning Release Armor, don't rush it. Focus on your own safety. I'm not in a hurry to use it anyway."
For Uchiha Kakuzan, the second stage of the Lightning Release Armor was merely an added bonus, not a significant improvement to his overall strength.
Furthermore, Uchiha Kakuzan estimated that once he copied the physiques and bloodlines of Uzumaki Kaoru and her daughter, as well as Naruto's Uzumaki clan, and improved his own physique, he could then directly seek out the Raikage to copy his perfected Lightning Release Armor.
However, he might have to endure some hardship. But by then, his body would already possess the physique of the Uzumaki clan and a flawed version of the Sage's Body, making him tough enough to withstand the fully developed Lightning Release Armor.
The Third Hokage nodded in agreement with Uchiha Kakuzan's words. Since Uchiha Kakuzan wasn't in a hurry to use them, there was no need to risk the lives of the spies lurking in Kumogakure. After all, a successful spy still had considerable value.
By the time Uchiha Kakuzan emerged from the Hokage Building, it was already getting dark. He had no choice; he not only needed to wait for Shimura Danzo's information, but also needed to discuss with the Third Hokage what excuse and method could be used to transfer some resources to the Uchiha clan. After all, the Uchiha were such a large clan that their daily needs required a massive amount of resources. Although the Uchiha clan had its own reserves, Uchiha Kakuzan was still very happy to be able to get some from Konoha for free.
Moreover, given Uchiha Kakuzan's plans for the Uchiha clan, the most important thing now is to develop themselves, encourage clan members to have more children, and expand the clan. Even the vice-clan leader Uchiha Kakuzan is setting an example by asking Mikoto for help.
As for the minor matter of earning a living, let Konoha Village support them for now. After the Fourth Shinobi World War, it will be time for the Uchiha clan to emerge and sweep everything away.
So by the time Uchiha Kakuzan finished all these things, it was already quite late.
Just as Uchiha Kakuzan left the Hokage Building and headed towards the Uchiha clan compound, after crossing a street, he suddenly seemed to sense something. Looking towards the end of the street, he discovered that Uzuki Yugao hadn't gone back to rest, but was instead standing gracefully at the end of the street waiting for him. The evening breeze blew, lifting some of her hair, perfectly highlighting the beauty of the young girl.
Uchiha Kakuyama saw Uzuki Yugao waiting for him there, looking pretty and charming. He smiled slightly, walked over, and reached out his hand to her.
When Uzuki Yugao saw Uchiha Kakuyama's actions, her face flushed slightly, but she also reached out and placed her hand in Uchiha Kakuyama's palm.
Uchiha Kakuzan, holding Uzuki Yugao's hand, didn't stop and led her towards the Uchiha clan's territory. As they walked, Uchiha Kakuzan asked, "Why didn't you go back to rest? Aren't you tired waiting for me?"
At this moment, a blush had already crept onto Uzuki Yugao's ears. Hearing Uchiha Kakuyama's words, she said softly but firmly, "I'm a little worried about you. Kakashi-senpai and I have both come out, but you've been left behind. I'm a little uneasy about it. After all, the Uchiha clan had a conflict with Shimura Danzo not long ago. I don't know the Third Hokage's stance, so I'm worried that he might make things difficult for you. I'm just a nobody, and I have no other choice but to wait for you here. I was thinking that if you don't come out by nightfall, I'll run to the Uchiha clan to inform them, so that at least your clansmen know that you've been kept behind by the Third Hokage."
When Uchiha Kakuzan heard what Uzuki Yugao said, he felt as if the softest part of his heart had been struck hard. He looked at the silly girl with a red face and her head down with tenderness in his eyes.
Chapter 84 Mao Yue Xiyan enters the wolf's den
Chapter 84 Uzuki Yugao Enters the Wolf's Den
Uchiha Okayama looked down at the silly girl, Uzuki Yugao, with tenderness. As an elite ninja who could enter the Anbu, she wasn't the kind of kid who just hung around in the ninja academy.
Since he was able to enter the Dark Division, he must have undergone a series of training sessions, and he must know the confidentiality regulations by heart. It's impossible for Uzuki Yugao not to know the consequences of his actions.
As a department directly under the Third Hokage, the Anbu's primary duty is loyalty to the Third Hokage. If Uzuki Yugao were to inform the Uchiha clan because Uchiha Kagami was detained by the Third Hokage, it would be a serious matter.
If exposed, the lightest consequence would be expulsion from the Anbu. Moreover, with this dark history of expulsion from the Anbu, Uzuki Yugao's path as a ninja would be cut off, and she would only be able to live as an ordinary civilian, possibly under constant surveillance.
The most severe punishment is the stripping of one's ninja and civilian status, imprisonment for no less than ten years, and expulsion from Konoha Village upon release, prohibiting them from residing or staying there.
Don't be fooled by the Naruto anime. The anime is all lighthearted and funny, but the reality is: Konoha Village is the largest ninja village in the ninja world, and also the largest semi-military village. Therefore, management in Konoha Village is very strict, and there is no room for betrayal.
That silly girl, Uzuki Yugao, has already decided to inform the Uchiha clan, which means she's prepared to bear the consequences. As for deceiving Uchiha Kakuzan, that's impossible.
Since Uchiha Kakuzan awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, his mental strength has increased dramatically, and his spiritual senses have become exceptionally sharp, making him practically a sensory ninja. He can clearly discern whether someone is deceiving him, something as trivial as that.
Unless Uzuki Yugao already possessed the skills of Orochimaru and the Third Hokage at such a young age, neither Jiraiya nor Tsunade had that ability.
Uchiha Kakuyama resisted the urge to put his hand on Uzuki Yugao's head and rub it, but instead gripped Uzuki Yugao's hand tightly.
Uzuki Yugao sensed the emotional fluctuations in Uchiha Kakuyama from her hand. She raised her head, which had been lowered like a quail, and looked up at Uchiha Kakuyama. She understood the words in his eyes and returned a bright smile to Uchiha Kakuyama.
The setting sun shone on Uzuki Yugao's slightly flushed face, her radiant smile full of sunshine, and a gentle breeze caressed her hair. All of this seemed to shine into Uchiha Kakuyama's heart.
Uchiha Kakuyama paused for a moment, then said nothing more. He simply gripped Uzuki Yugao's hand and pulled her forward, saying, "You must be hungry too. Considering how hard you've worked, I'll treat you to barbecue tonight. Eat as much as you want, it's all you can eat."
Feeling Uchiha Kakuyama's hand gripping her tightly, Uzuki Yugao smiled brightly again and nodded emphatically: "Yeah! Don't worry, I can eat a lot."
…………
Uchiha Kakuzan took Uzuki Yugao to a famous barbecue restaurant in Konoha for a big meal. Ever since Uchiha Kakuzan practiced Lightning Release Armor, he has had a huge appetite. Uzuki Yugao also practices swordsmanship. Swordsmanship and taijutsu are inseparable, so she is also a girl who can eat a lot.
The two ate a ten-person portion of barbecue at the barbecue restaurant. Uchiha Okayama ate a six-person portion, and Uzuki Yugao ate a four-person portion, causing the people at the barbecue restaurant to frequently look at them, wondering if they were from the Akimichi clan.
After finishing their barbecue, Uchiha Okayama and Uzuki Yugao had no desire to go shopping since they had just returned from a mission.
The two walked hand in hand down the street for a while. Uchiha Kakuyama tentatively led Uzuki Yugao towards the Uchiha clan's territory. Uzuki Yugao sensed Uchiha Kakuyama's intention, glanced at him quickly, and pretended not to know. She followed the direction Uchiha Kakuyama was leading, but her face unconsciously flushed.
Seeing that Uchiha Kakuyama followed him without any objection, he appeared calm but was actually overjoyed. He then pulled Uchiha Kakuyama along into the Uchiha clan's territory and into his home.
Since it wasn't too late, the Uchiha clan compound, while not bustling with activity, was still filled with Uchiha clan members chatting outside. When they saw their young and talented vice-clan leader returning with a girl for the first time, they stopped talking and looked at Uzuki Yugao with curiosity.
The older ones were alright; they just looked at them with understanding and curiosity. After all, their young deputy clan leader was getting old and had reached the age to date. But the young Uchiha girls looked at Uzuki Yugao as if she could spit fire, as if she had done something that would anger heaven and earth.
It's important to know that Uchiha Kakuzan is the top fighter in the Uchiha clan, having overshadowed Uchiha Shisui. Moreover, his appearance is outstanding even among the handsome men and beautiful women of the Uchiha clan, making him the perfect object of affection for many Uchiha girls.
This was because before Uchiha Kakuzan obtained the system, he was prepared to run away at any time, so he deliberately kept his distance from them. Otherwise, he would have had some female confidantes long ago.
When Uzuki Yugao arrived at the Uchiha clan's territory, she realized just how popular the Uchiha clan was. All the way there, Uzuki Yugao had to be on tenterhooks, fearing that some girl might not be able to resist and would cause her trouble.
Uzuki Yugao was overthinking things. She knew that Uchiha Kakuyama was not only the strongest member of the Uchiha clan but also the vice-clan head, second only to the clan head and elder in power and prestige. In this era of strict hierarchy, even if the Uchiha girls harbored resentment, they wouldn't openly cause trouble for Uzuki Yugao. Furthermore, the Uchiha clan's elite had been transferred to Uzushima Island, leaving behind those who weren't very strong and weren't confident they could defeat Uzuki Yugao, who was already a Special Jonin. Therefore, Uzuki Yugao arrived safely at Uchiha Kakuyama's house.
After entering Uchiha Okayama's house, Uzuki Yugao's tense body finally relaxed. She exaggeratedly patted her chest, causing ripples, and said, "I was so nervous! I didn't expect you to be so popular in your clan. You didn't see how much those Uchiha girls looked at me, like they wanted to eat me alive."
Uchiha Kakuyama casually closed the door, smiling as he watched Uzuki Yugao talk. As time passed, Uzuki Yugao's voice grew softer and softer. Clearly, Uzuki Yugao realized that she had just escaped one danger only to fall into another. With Uchiha Kakuyama closing the door, the girl outside could no longer threaten her. Now, the most dangerous person was Uchiha Kakuyama himself.
As time passed, the atmosphere between the two became increasingly ambiguous, and Uzuki Yugao's heart pounded faster and faster, as if it were about to jump out of her throat.
With her head bowed, Uzuki Yugao felt a figure getting closer and closer...
Chapter 85 Night Training and Morning Training
Chapter 85 Night Training and Morning Training
As Uchiha Kagami drew closer, Uzuki Yugao tried to dodge, but she seemed to have no strength left in her body and could only wait there. As Uchiha Kagami's rapid breathing grew closer, Uzuki Yugao raised her head and closed her eyes, as if welcoming Uchiha Kagami's arrival.
That evening, the two engaged in a discussion about the meaning of life, exchanging sharp and pointed remarks.
Uchiha Kakuzan launched a fierce attack on Uzuki Yugao, striking three times and defeating her repeatedly until she was routed and unable to resist. Uzuki Yugao, however, was not one to back down. Despite it being her first time facing Uchiha Kakuzan, she dared to challenge him and refused to be outmatched.
During that long night, Uzuki Yugao finally opened the door to life and learned its profound meaning. After the first encounter, she pestered Uchiha Okayama a second and third time. Because Uzuki Yugao was truly inexperienced, she dealt with the situation rather hastily.
Unlike Uchiha Kakuzan, who had already learned from Mikoto many times and surpassed her teacher, defeating Mikoto so badly that she was completely outmatched, let alone Uzuki Yugao, who was a terrible player. Of course, Yugao was thoroughly defeated and surrendered on the third try.
At first, Uchiha Kakuzan had some patience and unbuttoned the buttons one by one, but later, driven by physical urges, he lost patience and simply tore them off.
Uchiha Kakuyama looked at Uzuki Yugao beneath him with admiration, while Uzuki Yugao shyly closed her eyes.
Uchiha Kakuyama suppressed his impulse and asked in a slightly hoarse voice, "Yugao, shall I begin?"
Upon hearing Uchiha Kakuzan's words, Uzuki Yugao did not open her eyes, which had been closed long ago. She simply nodded slightly and uttered a soft sound: "Yes, please be kind, Kakuzan-kun."
