Naruto: From Kushina Uzumaki onwards, a traitor

Chiba's gaze was fixed on Uchiha Fugaku's back.

Chiyu felt that the Uchiha in front of her was very different from the other Uchiha.

He did it right in front of them, yet he remained so calm. Other Uchiha might have already attacked.

Moreover, the fact that the other party could come alone and represent the Uchiha clan to apologize to him suggests that his status and position must be quite high.

Qianyu asked, "Hey, what's your name?"

"Uchiha... Fugaku."

After stopping and stating his name, Fugaku Uchiha left without looking back.

A slight smile curved Qianyu's lips.

Fugaku Uchiha, the future head of the Uchiha clan, and the father of Itachi Uchiha and Sasuke Uchiha.

Qianyu's sarcasm became even more pronounced: "You've really raised two fine sons."

In Chiyu's eyes, Itachi Uchiha's future act of massacring his clan was not justice at all.

Itachi Uchiha chose to sacrifice a small number of people in order to protect more people, which seems like a very righteous act.

However, Itachi Uchiha did not kill just anyone.

Rather, they were his clansmen, his blood relatives.

Itachi Uchiha, loyal to Konoha, chose to eliminate the Uchiha clan in the name of "Konoha's greater good" after their betrayal. This was indeed righteous for Konoha.

However, for the Uchiha clan, for those who still trusted him and were waiting for him to fight for the future together, Uchiha Itachi was a traitor.

This is a sin.

The bond of blood makes this sin even more heinous.

If Itachi had only slaughtered the Uchiha clan members who chose to betray him, or even killed Sasuke along with him, Chiba might have thought more highly of him.

But Itachi Uchiha did not.

Itachi Uchiha, together with Obito Uchiha, killed everyone, regardless of age or gender.

As a member of the Uchiha clan, he chose to exterminate his own clan.

He spared Sasuke Uchiha not to preserve the Uchiha clan's lineage, but because he didn't want to see his beloved younger brother die.

After Itachi Uchiha carried out the massacre of his clan, his only condition was to save his younger brother Sasuke Uchiha's life, in exchange for providing Konoha with intelligence.

This action turned Itachi Uchiha's massacre of his clan into a joke.

In Chiyu's view, Uchiha Itachi was a hypocrite who had been brainwashed by the Will of Fire and was blindly loyal to Konoha.

Itachi Uchiha's actions were not righteous at all; he was a foolish guy who willingly became someone else's pawn while believing himself to be on the side of justice.

They are truly an incurable race; they can bring about their own destruction without anyone else's intervention.

But Uchiha Sasuke, heh, he's somewhat interesting.

Just as Chiba was about to return to the base to continue training, Orochimaru's voice came from the side: "You're really shrewd, Chiba."

Chiyu looked toward the direction from which the sound came and found Orochimaru leaning against a tree, smiling at him.

Chiyu smiled and said to Orochimaru, "Since they've offered it to me for free, why shouldn't I take it? The Uchiha clan's Fire Release ninjutsu and Sharingan training techniques will be very helpful to me."

Two more scrolls appeared in Qianyu's hands.

The two scrolls that Chiyu burned earlier were just two blank scrolls that Chiyu took out of his ninja tool bag.

Earlier, when Uchiha Fugaku was about to turn and leave, Chiba quickly switched the scroll. Then, when Uchiha Fugaku's gaze was not on the scroll, she directly used the high temperature of lightning to ignite the scroll, creating the illusion that Chiba had very rudely burned the scroll.

Orochimaru walked up to Chiba with his arms crossed: "Aren't you worried that the Uchiha will cause you trouble in the future?"

Chiyu put the two scrolls away again and smiled brightly at Orochimaru: "I'm not worried at all. We still have Orochimaru-sensei, and... Fugaku Uchiha, representing the Uchiha clan, took the initiative to apologize to me, which means that the Uchiha clan's situation is quite bad, and they want to use me to establish a connection with Orochimaru-sensei."

Orochimaru chuckled, "Heh, you have a keen eye for the situation. But what you really want to say is that the Uchiha clan wants to invest in your future and establish a connection with the Hokage, who is my teacher."

Chiyu chuckled and said, "Orochimaru-sensei, I didn't say that."

Orochimaru didn't say anything more and walked towards the underground base: "Let's go. I've been very busy lately. After I help you form a contract with Ryuchi Cave today and help you make a training plan for this period of time, I won't be back for a while."

Chiba followed Orochimaru to the office.

Orochimaru explained to Chiba: "Summoning Technique is a space-time ninjutsu that is used by the user to summon a creature after signing a blood pact with it."

Because a blood pact is required to summon a spirit beast, blood must be used as a medium to let the spirit beast know who is summoning it. The person who makes the pact leaves a blood mark on the pact, and once the spirit beast is certified, it can be summoned.

Therefore, when summoning spirits, one usually gets their palms stained with blood, concentrating chakra and blood on the hand that made the contract, using it as a summoning medium.

Then there are the hand seals. The hand seals for summoning techniques are Hai, Xu, You, Shen, and Wei. The strength of the summoned beast depends on the amount of chakra consumed. The more chakra consumed, the more powerful the summoned beast can be summoned.

That concludes the explanation of psychic magic. Now, I will demonstrate a psychic ritual.

Orochimaru bit his finger, letting the blood flow down his right palm, and then formed hand seals.

"Psychic art!"

A puff of smoke appeared, and when it dissipated, a large blue snake appeared before Qianyu's eyes.

Chapter 40 The Angry Uchiha Masaki

Orochimaru personally demonstrated the summoning technique, summoning a blue snake.

The blue snake spoke in human language, lowering its head towards Orochimaru: "Lord Orochimaru."

Orochimaru said to the blue snake, "Take out the contract scroll."

The blue snake opened its mouth, its belly twitched, and it spat out the scroll containing the contract signed with Ryuchi Cave.

Orochimaru looked at Chiyu and said, "Open the scroll, write your name in blood, and then press your blood handprint with your dominant hand. That will successfully sign a contract with Ryuchi Cave."

Qianyu opened the sticky contract scroll.

The last name was Orochimaru; Chiba didn't recognize the names before that.

Qianyu bit her finger, signed her name on the contract scroll, and then pressed her bloody handprint on it.

After signing the contract, Qianyu closed the scroll and handed it to the Blue Serpent.

After swallowing the contract scroll back into its belly, the blue snake said, "Lord Orochimaru, Lord Senba, I'll head back to Ryuchi Cave now."

Another cloud of smoke enveloped the blue snake, and when the smoke cleared, the blue snake had vanished from its spot.

Orochimaru then tossed a scroll to Chiba.

Orochimaru explained to Chiyu, "These contain my secret techniques. You can practice them yourself. If you encounter anything you don't understand, write it down. I will come back every two weeks and tell you about any problems you encounter, and I will answer them for you."

Orochimaru then began to formulate Chiba's next training plan: "The physical fitness and reaction training in the morning will continue as usual. In the afternoon, we will make a change and there is no need to continue training those low-level ninjutsu."

Now that you have acquired the Uchiha clan's Fire Release ninjutsu, your next step is to study it.

I just looked at the Fire Release ninjutsu in that scroll. Techniques like Great Fire Dragon Technique and Great Fire Annihilation require you to master the form and nature transformations of Fire Release chakra.

You already have experience in training lightning-style chakra form and nature transformations, so I won't teach you anymore. You'll have to figure it out yourself.

Then, in the afternoon, you will need to practice the art of spirit communication. After you have fully mastered the art of spirit communication, you will switch to practicing my secret techniques.

In short, you should manage your time as you see fit.

Orochimaru was quite at ease with Chiba.

Chiyu was very diligent and self-disciplined in her training, and Orochimaru didn't need to urge her at all.

Although the cultivation tasks have become heavier, Qianyu is full of enthusiasm.

If you continue training according to this plan, you will definitely achieve breakthrough progress.

"Alright, now you can start your training on your own. I have other things to do, so I'll be leaving now. If you need to find me urgently, you can go directly to the Hokage Building, or after you master the Summoning Jutsu, you can summon the snakes of Ryuchi Cave to find me."

"Yes, Orochimaru-sensei."

After Orochimaru left, Chiba immediately began training according to the new training plan.

...

Uchiha clan.

After returning, Fugaku Uchiha immediately went to find his father, Masaki Uchiha.

When Uchiha Masaki saw his son return, he immediately asked, "Fugaku, how did it go? I bet Chiba accepted those two scrolls and the Uchiha's overtures, right?"

Before Fugaku Uchiha could speak, Masaki Uchiha continued, "His eyes must be glued to the screen. That's a Fire Release ninjutsu passed down through generations of the Uchiha clan. Even Orochimaru wouldn't know it. Plus, there's the even more precious Sharingan usage experience. He must be incredibly grateful to our Uchiha clan."

Fugaku Uchiha replied with a grim expression, "No, Father, Chiba did not accept our goodwill. He... burned both scrolls!"

Uchiha Masaki was stunned, his expression constantly changing.

Uchiha Masaki, still incredulous, asked Uchiha Fugaku again, "You mean he burned the scroll?"

Fugaku Uchiha nodded: "That's right. He also made it clear that he does not accept our Uchiha's apology."

Uchiha Masaki slammed his fist on the table in anger.

The entire table was smashed to pieces.

"He's just a discarded scion of the Uchiha clan, what right does he have?! Who does he think he is? He's not even on the Hokage's side yet!"

Uchiha Masaki's face turned bright red with anger, and the veins on his neck bulged.

Fugaku Uchiha was furious.

The Uchiha clan is, after all, the number one ninja clan. Even if Chiba doesn't accept the apology, there's no need to treat her in such a humiliating way.

The atmosphere in the room fell silent, broken only by Uchiha Masaki's heavy breathing.

It took Uchiha Masaki quite a while to recover.

Although Uchiha Masaki was angry, he remained calm.

After all, he couldn't have become the clan leader if he hadn't remained calm.

Uchiha Masaki said coldly, "Since that guy Chiba is so shameless, then let's ignore him. Fugaku, there's something I need you to do next."

Fugaku Uchiha nodded and said, "Father, please speak."

Uchiha Masaki said seriously, "I will hold another clan meeting tomorrow to restrain the clan members. You will then monitor them, especially those troublemakers. You must keep an eye on them."
