Uchiha's Blade
Chapter 103 Chapter 103
"Blade of Uchiha"
Mana casually rubbed Sasuke's head, ignoring the child's bulging face and looking unhappy after being rubbed, and turned to Zabuza, who thought he was well hidden in the mist, and said: "You are currently Kirigakure. The village’s rebellious ninja, you should understand what the so-called rebellious ninja means, right?”
She chuckled and said, "It means that even if I kill you at the gate of the Kingdom of Water, I don't have to worry about negotiating with the Kirigakure Village. And do you really think you can escape from my hands? "
Zabuza is a being who is considered to be at the top of his strength even among Jonin. With that decapitating sword, it would be difficult for ordinary Jonin to defeat him in a one-on-one battle.
but……
"Having failed to assassinate the Mizukage, you should have noticed the difference in strength between yourself and the real Kage, right? And I can confidently say that among the Kages still alive, there is no one stronger than me!"
Zabuza's voice was a little vague, which made it difficult to determine his position through the sound: "The Hokage is very confident."
Mana didn't care about his seemingly sarcastic words.
Sure enough, Zabuza continued: "If you want to kill me, you can do it from the beginning. Even if you want to know the information about the Kingdom of Water, there is no need to speak. The moment we look at each other, you can just write The illusion of the wheel eye will find the answer on its own, and those eyes are famous."
The illusion of the Sharingan is very powerful and cannot be resisted by ordinary ninjas. Even Zabuza would not dare to look into those eyes without a powerful companion.
"So, you must have other things you want me to do. Hmm, what matters does the noble Hokage need to entrust to me, a traitorous ninja?"
The corners of Zhenna's lips raised slightly: "Very good, I'm starting to feel a little satisfied with you."
She did have something she wanted Zabuza to do, but it wouldn't work if Zabuza was a fool.
Now it seems that although he assassinated Mizukage and did not prepare more back-ups, it seems a bit silly, but it is not really brainless.
Zhenna said: "In that case, let's talk somewhere else."
She formed the seal again.
"Fire Escape, Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique!"
Five huge fireballs were spit out and flew in different directions under her exquisite control. Wherever the fireballs passed, the huge heat caused the fragile mist to evaporate and disappear instantly.
Everything around him became clear again.
Mana turned around and called Sasuke: "Follow me."
The results of Sasuke's hard training in taijutsu during this period were revealed.
With Mana deliberately controlling his speed, it was of course easy for Zabuza to keep up with her, but it was a little bit stressful for Sasuke. However, compared to the child Zabuza brought with him, Sasuke's performance was better. .
This made Mana feel much better.
Zabuza's expression wasn't very good.
And the handsome young man with black hair had an even more ashamed look on his face.
"I'm sorry, Zabuza-sama, I'm so useless."
He is obviously older than Sasuke, but his speed is not as fast as Sasuke's. He is too weak, so he cannot be a useful tool to Zabuza-sama.
Mana said to Sasuke with a smile on his face: "You performed well, but don't be too proud. Your teacher is me, but that's it. It's far from the time to be proud."
Just like Mana can declare that she is the strongest ninja in the current ninja world, but she is not proud of her strength at all.
She is a disciple of the First Hokage and the successor of the Uchiha bloodline. Isn't this kind of strength a matter of course?
Rather, if you can't do it to this extent, then you shouldn't.
Hearing what Mana said, Sasuke restrained the joy on his face a little, but unlike Itachi, he had never experienced any cruel things. No matter how restrained he was, the joyful look in his eyes still betrayed him.
Well, there's nothing wrong with being a simple kid.
Mana quite likes children like this. Isn't Mr. Hashirama working hard to create a world where children can live innocently?
However, Sasuke was probably too proud. The black-haired boy who followed Zabuza suddenly said, "I want to compete with you."
Mana raised an eyebrow and looked at Zabuza.
Zabuza said: "I don't object, I just don't know what the Hokage wants?"
Of course he could see that although Sasuke was faster than Shiro, he actually didn't have much actual combat experience. Looking at his age, he probably hadn't opened the Sharingan yet.
If he had opened the Sharingan at this age and was still a disciple of the Hokage, the Uchiha clan would have blown away his reputation as a genius.
Calculated this way, if there was a real fight, Bai would not necessarily lose.
Zabuza himself is not sure of defeating Mana, so it would be good for Haku to defeat Mana's disciples.
After all, you have to earn some momentum for yourself, so that things can be discussed later.
Mana asked Sasuke: "Do you want to agree?"
Sasuke raised his chin proudly: "I will let him know that Uchiha is not an opponent he can defeat!"
"In that case, you go over there."
Pointing to an open space next to him, Mana allowed Sasuke to compete.
Zabuza said: "Don't underestimate Shiro, this kid has been through many battles with me."
Zhenna said: "Of course I can see it, and he must have the power of Xuejie. The ice wall that helped you block my Phoenix Fire was made by her."
Hearing this, Zabuza was a little confused: "Since you know, you are not worried?"
Mana said: "On the contrary, I really want to see him fight."
There were things she wanted to verify.
So Zabuza said no more.
Mana crossed her arms and watched the fight between the two children, and asked casually as if chatting: "What are your plans in the future? Leave the Kingdom of Water to become a wandering ninja?"
Zabuza said: "Rebellious ninjas naturally have their own way of living."
Obviously, even if he became a rebel ninja, he would not immediately do anything detrimental to Kirigakure Village.
Mana said: "I haven't done anything yet, why are you so hostile? Okay, if I really want to do something to Kirigakure Village, it doesn't matter whether I have your help or not."
Zabuza was silent for a while, but he had to admit this: "Then what exactly do you want me to do?"
Mana said: "I know a rebel ninja organization. They are recruiting people recently. If you are willing, I will introduce you to a job."
Zabuza's eyes moved: "I didn't expect that Naruto is also related to the rebel ninja organization."
Mana said: "Soon it will no longer be a pure rebel ninja organization. After all, their goal is to achieve peace and let everyone live a happy life. I see that you don't like the current policies of Kirigakure Village very much. "
Zabuza sneered: "You want to remind me that with the cruel policies of Kirigakure Village, they can't give up chasing me, right?"
Zhenna spread her hands: "You really misunderstood. Do you still need me to remind you about this? If you run out with a decapitating sword, it would be strange for Kirigakure Village to give up chasing you, right?"
As she said this, she looked at Zabuza with a 'Are you stupid?' look.
Do not cut again: "..."
It seems to be the case.
But having said that, he really needs to find a place to stay as soon as possible. Without shelter, he may not survive for long.
Zabuza is very clear about the madness of Kirigakure Village's assassination team. Although he is confident in his own strength, he is homeless and cannot defeat four people with just two fists. If Kirigakure Village continues to attack him in order to regain the beheading sword, It will be difficult to persist even if you don't cut it.
Thinking of this, his tone softened a little: "Where is the organization you mentioned?"
Zhenna handed him a small piece of paper: "Follow the instructions above, and their leader will send someone to see you soon."
Now Nagato and Konan are still studying hard in another world, how can anyone contact Zabuza!
Just as their conversation came to fruition, the battle between Sasuke and Shiro also came to a conclusion.
You can tell the result just by looking at Sasuke's drooping look.
But even though he lost, he also caused Bai a lot of damage that cannot be ignored.
Zhenna waved to him: "Come here."
The little kitten, which was beaten and disgraced, came to her pitifully.
Mana was treating Sasuke with one hand, and asked Zabuza: "Where's yours? Do you need me to treat it?"
Zabuza said, "Haku himself knows medical ninjutsu."
Mana praised: "At his age, it is indeed very rare to have good fighting strength and learn medical ninjutsu at the same time."
Sasuke looked even more lost.
Zhenna smiled and said: "Okay, I will teach you some powerful ninjutsu when I go back. I will definitely defeat him next time."
Simple children are so easy to coax. Sasuke suddenly became excited and even the wounds on his body no longer hurt: "Really? What kind of powerful ninjutsu is this?"
Mana said: "Would you like to learn the skills of the Senju monster? I told Tsunade that she has no objection to me teaching you the secret technique of the Senju."
Anyway, there are only a few members of the Senju clan left now. Tsunade alone can have the final say on this kind of thing. Besides, when it comes to the secret technique of the Senju, Mana has more control over it than Tsunade. .
The First Hokage and the Second Hokage really had no reservations when teaching her.
Sasuke's eyes lit up when he heard this: "I've agreed, I want to learn. Teacher Mana, don't go back on your word!"
He had personally seen Mana demonstrate to him that he could break a large rock that was much taller than his height with just one punch.
It is said that if you use your full strength, the destructive power will be even more terrifying.
Sasuke has wanted to learn this for a long time!
Seeing that the wilted child regained his energy, Mana smiled and said to Zabuza: "Then, Mr. Zabuza, I will meet you again soon."
Zabuza knew that what this meant was that next time she would come alone to talk to him about the Kingdom of Water.
It's just...since you don't plan to let that brat from the Uchiha clan know, why did you bring him with you?
Zabuza didn't want to understand this question, but he couldn't ask it directly, so he just nodded stiffly and watched Manahi Raijin leave.
Of course, from this day on, Sasuke's training became even harder.
After Konoha's Peace Daily accumulated a certain reader base, under Mana's instruction, it began to publish articles discussing topics such as what peace is and what kind of existence a ninja should be.
Mana doesn't agree with the saying that 'ninjas are just tools'.
To this end, she also deleted, deleted, and changed a lot of the ninja regulations she learned in the ninja school.
After all, while promoting Konoha's tender will of fire, while also saying that ninjas are just tools to complete tasks, this is simply to teach the next generation to be elite.
In Mana's view, if a will must be instilled in Konoha, then the will of fire can be used for the time being.
Just throw away the set of tools completely.
If she had done this in other villages, there would have been huge resistance, but Konoha's will of fire is deeply rooted in life. Under the leadership of the third generation of Konoha ninjas, the atmosphere has always been warm and affectionate, especially among the companions in the team. Friendship makes it easier for everyone to abandon the saying that 'ninjas are just tools'.
It's just that someone mentioned a few words about the former 'White Teeth'.
Mana knew that White Fang ultimately failed the mission because he gave up the mission to rescue his companions. After returning to the village, he was criticized and scolded by everyone, and finally chose to commit suicide.
A powerful ninja who was once as famous as the Sannin of Konoha by relying only on his sword skills fell like this.
This also had a profound impact on Hatake Kakashi later.
Mana never believed that a powerful ninja who killed countless people on the battlefield would collapse and commit suicide because of some rumors. I'm afraid there was a lot of pressure from other aspects.
However, at this time, she was too lazy to settle old scores with the Third Generation and Danzo, but she could not ignore the matter, so soon, Jiraiya's article was published in the Peace Daily, specifically discussing the balance between tasks and favors.
Mana visited the Hatake family and apologized to the Hatake family on behalf of the village as Hokage.
She may not mention the responsible persons again, but there is no doubt that it is wrong to let Hatake Sakumo bear all the blame while the village did nothing during this period.
Facing Mana, Hatake Kakashi was silent for a long time, and then said in a dry voice: "Hokage-sama, there is no need to be like this, what happened back then...just let it pass."
Maybe when he was young, he would simply think that it was just because his father failed to complete the task, but now, looking back, he can't help but understand the undercurrent that was surging under the rumors back then.
But now, Hatake Sakumo finally waited for a fair result.
Mana calls him the hero of Konoha.
For Kakashi, it was enough now.
None of this is Mana's responsibility after all.
Because Mana publicly admitted that the incident of White Fang's death was the village's fault, those who took advantage of White Fang's incident to feel weird had nothing to say.
The voices within Konoha gradually became unified.
Hinata Hizu noticed the edge hidden under Mana's words.
Recalling the conversation with Mana, Hinata Hizashi understood that Mana would probably lead public opinion to discuss the rights of ninjas next. At that time, the caged bird of the Hyuga clan would inevitably become one of the focuses of discussion.
Because if it is wrong to say that ninjas are born to be inferior and should be used as tools to sacrifice for others, then it is naturally wrong to say that the branch family should be labeled as a caged bird to 'protect' the clan.
At this time, Danzo came to visit him again.
This is not the first time Danzo has come to the Hyuga clan. Of course, he has mentioned to Hyuga Hizashi how big of a threat Uchiha Mana is more than once.
At this time, Danzo came again to remind: "If the Hyuga clan does not take action again, I am afraid that the Hyuga clan will really be destroyed in her hands! The Hiashi clan leader must think carefully."
Hinata Hiashi sighed: "I, the Hyuga clan, have always supported the village's decision, but the caged bird is the foundation of the Hyuga clan's inheritance for thousands of years. I will never let the Hyuga clan's inheritance be ruined in my hands!"
Uchiha Mana forced him to do all this!
A smile finally appeared on Danzo's wrinkled face.
For the first time in such a long time, Hinata Hizu finally gave him a clear answer.
So Mana was lucky enough to see Hinata Neji standing outside the Hokage's office building with a serious look on his face a few days later.
The kid couldn't get into the Hokage's building, so he simply stayed outside all day long. As soon as he saw Mana, he immediately said eagerly: "Hokage-sama, I have something to tell you!"
Mana made a gesture, and the hidden Anbu immediately dispersed to form guards in the outer circle. Mana said to Neji: "Come in with me. Sit down and talk about anything."
She took Neji back to the office. Before she could sit down, Neji said: "Hokage-sama, the situation in the Hyuga clan is very strange recently. I think they want to do you harm!"
Mana raised an eyebrow: "It seems that the Hyuga clan has made a decision."
Seeing her calm expression, Neji seemed to feel a little more at ease: "Hokage-sama, many clan members spoke ill of you behind your back some time ago, but not everyone is like that."
Mana smiled: "I know, let's not talk about this first, how did you know that the Hyuga clan is going to be detrimental to me?"
Even if Hinata and Hinata made a decision about this kind of thing, it would be impossible for a child like Neji to know about it, right?
Neji said: "Because some people in the clan said bad things about you before, but no one cared about it. Recently, the clan leader suddenly ordered not to discuss Naruto publicly. However, the atmosphere in the clan has not relaxed at all, but has become more tense."
Neji, who sensed something was wrong, of course tried to understand the situation.
Although he was a child, his father Hyuga Hizashi still had some friends back then. Because he knew that Neji usually did not agree with those who spoke ill of Naruto behind his back, this time he specifically warned him to be careful with Naruto. A group of people keep their distance.
Neji is a smart kid, how could he not understand when he heard these words?
Zhenna said: "If you come out to see me so recklessly, I'm afraid you will get into trouble."
Mana didn't think that Hinata Hizashi didn't know about Neji's actions, but he probably still felt guilty about Hinata Hizashi in his heart, so he didn't want to use drastic measures to deal with Neji. Anyway, he, a child, couldn't possibly know any secrets. Just let him run out.
Mana said in her heart that Hinata and Hinata seemed very confident in her character in this matter.
Neji said: "I'm not afraid! I... I just don't want you to get hurt. You are the first Hokage to speak for the separation of families in so many years."
Neji believed that he was different from those ungrateful members of the Separate Family.
Moreover, he sometimes wonders, if the Hokage back then was not the third generation, but Mana Uchiha, would his father not have died?
Mana said: "No matter what you think, at least you can't go back to the Hyuga clan. Even if Hyuga and Hizashi won't care about you, others may not."
Neji said oh, but he didn't really care about this matter.
Mana said: "If you don't mind, go and live with Gaara for a while first. Do you know him, right? He is the jinchūriki of Sand Ninja Village, and he is very powerful."
Anyway, Gaara already has a lot of ANBU protection, so having Neci and Gaara work together can save some manpower.
Ningci said: "I will listen to your arrangements."
Zhenna burst out laughing: "Last time I said I wanted to accept you as my disciple, but you didn't even agree."
Neji blushed a little: "...I didn't refuse."
At that time, he just couldn't believe it and felt that everything was so unreal.
But now, he has already understood that the Fifth Hokage is a good Hokage who really considers the separation of families.
Mana thinks this kid is so cute.
After arranging for Hyuga Neji, Mana began to arrange things about the Hyuga clan.
She doesn't think she will lose, the only difference is how to win.
If her winning method is similar to what the past three generations of Hokages and others did, allowing Konoha's talents to be consumed in internal fighting, then even if she wins, she is actually losing.
She couldn't afford to weaken Konoha as the price of her fight.
Therefore, in reality, the matter of the Hyuga clan is not so easy to solve.
With this in mind, Mana called Uchiha Shisui the next day: "There is a mission that requires you to leave the village for a few days. Go back and make arrangements."
Uchiha Shisui nodded.
He didn't ask any more questions. As a ninja, it was quite normal to receive emergency missions at short notice. Missions out of the village were even more common. His things were always packed and ready for use. Of course, Shisui also understood that Mana asked him to go back and make arrangements. It's not just about getting some clothes and tools, but it's also important to arrange things within the Uchiha clan during his absence.
Half an hour later, Uchiha Shisui returned to the Hokage's office again, and Mana stretched out his hand to him: "Hold my hand."
Then the next moment, they appeared in an underground base.
Surrounded by stone walls, the room has no entrance or windows. It is just a sealed box with dense runes painted on it from the floor to the walls to the ceiling.
This is a room that can only be entered through the Flying Thunder God Jutsu.
Zhenna said: "I'm afraid we have to move to a new place next. I'll explain to you the details when we get there."
Uchiha Shisui nodded.
The quality of being an excellent ninja was reflected at this time, so that he really didn't ask a single word without asking.
Mana's plan is quite simple.
There can be a time difference between different worlds. In this case, she can certainly use this time difference to let Uchiha Shisui go to the world of stone to study.
…In other words, it’s a long experience.
Mana feels that only after seeing such a world can we truly understand what a peaceful and prosperous world looks like.
Otherwise, no matter how much people say it, it will just be an illusory picture.
Since she wants to solve the problem of the Hyuga clan, she needs the firm and full support of other ninjas in the village. But once the Hyuga clan uses the reason that the caged bird is the internal affairs of the Hyuga clan, other ninjas will inevitably be affected.
Even if Mana discusses this truth through the Peace Daily, it will be useless.
How can things that have not been realized, scenes that no one has ever seen, and the influence of just a few articles in a short period of time have a more profound impact on people than thousands of years of tradition?
When he discovered that the surrounding environment had changed, Uchiha Shisui's eyes showed obvious surprise, but he still followed Mana's previous words and didn't ask a single word.
When Teriya received Mana's call and rushed over, Mana directly threw Uchiha Shisui to Teriya: "Shisui is a member of the same race from my hometown. Please explain the situation to him."
Teriya nodded and explained the new world to Uchiha Shisui very seriously.
Later, when Uchiha Shisui slowly digested this thing that could be called a subversion of the world view, Teriya asked Mana: "Does Mana plan to bring other people here in the future?"
Zhenna nodded: "That's the plan."
Teriyaki then said: "If this is the case, I think we should prepare a special explanatory document. Although we can also introduce the situation, if time is limited, it is difficult to cover everything. If it is distributed in the form of information, more information can be obtained. There is a lot of content, and you can also add some other problems you encounter in daily life, which will be much more convenient."
Mana also thinks this is a good idea.
Teriyaki said: "Then I will make an instruction manual later."
Soon, Nagato came back.
He should go to school today, but this kind of thing can be done with one clone, and it's no problem for him to run back.
Several months have passed in this world. Mana saw that Nagato had obviously gotten rid of the initial skinny appearance, and his body seemed to have some more well-proportioned muscles. Although he didn't look too strong, at least he was within the healthy range. .
Nagato was not too surprised by Shisui's arrival: "I thought before that you should arrange for others to come over soon."
Mana nodded: "Let Shisui take over the affairs here. You and Konan are going back. I have recruited new members for you, but for the former members of the Akatsuki organization, you and Uchiha Obito still need to compete for them."
Nagato said: "I understand."
Zhenna asked again: "If you don't use the clan ability, will your strength be considered restored?"
It stands to reason that when Mana existed in that world, Nagato should also be able to use abilities as a clan member, but Mana believed that this was not stable. After all, the power stored in the small flower stone she carried was limited, and it would not be possible if the chain was broken at a critical moment. Too bad.
Nagato is very confident about this: "Although I have lost my reincarnation eye, my body does not need to face such a heavy burden. It does have an impact on my strength, but it is not as big as imagined."
"That's fine."
After confirming that Nagato was indeed in good condition, Mana planned to take him back as soon as possible.
As for the identity of 'high school student Uchiha Mana' in this world, it will probably be left to Uchiha Shisui to inherit.
Unexpectedly, Nagato said: "Regarding the matter here, the commander-in-chief of Totsuki wants to meet with you. In addition, Totsuki's autumn selection is about to begin. Yukihira Soma will participate, and this competition will also Celebrities who have a good relationship with Totsuki are invited to serve as judges, and Commander Nakiri asked you if you are interested in this."
Mana laughed: "It seems that he has great confidence in Yukihira Souma."
This move not only showed her the excellent seedlings cultivated by Totsuki and proved Totsuki's future development potential, but also allowed her to see the growth of Souma Yukihira with her own eyes.
After all, time can be accurately positioned when traveling across the world, so Mana is not too anxious.
On the second day, I went to Wisteria Restaurant for dinner with Nakiri Senzaemon.
During this period, the fall selection was naturally discussed again.
Zhenna said: "Forget it being a judge, I'm not very good at food."
Nakiri Senzaemon was not surprised by this answer. He then asked: "In that case, the topic of this selection has not been decided yet. Are you interested in being the question maker?"
Mana blinked: "Question? Any question is acceptable?"
"Of course, any topic will do."
Mana: "Then Bingliangwan!"
Next to her, Erina Nakiri, who was eating quietly, suddenly trembled: "No, you can't!"
Nakiri Senzaemon: "...?"
Mana casually rubbed Sasuke's head, ignoring the child's bulging face and looking unhappy after being rubbed, and turned to Zabuza, who thought he was well hidden in the mist, and said: "You are currently Kirigakure. The village’s rebellious ninja, you should understand what the so-called rebellious ninja means, right?”
She chuckled and said, "It means that even if I kill you at the gate of the Kingdom of Water, I don't have to worry about negotiating with the Kirigakure Village. And do you really think you can escape from my hands? "
Zabuza is a being who is considered to be at the top of his strength even among Jonin. With that decapitating sword, it would be difficult for ordinary Jonin to defeat him in a one-on-one battle.
but……
"Having failed to assassinate the Mizukage, you should have noticed the difference in strength between yourself and the real Kage, right? And I can confidently say that among the Kages still alive, there is no one stronger than me!"
Zabuza's voice was a little vague, which made it difficult to determine his position through the sound: "The Hokage is very confident."
Mana didn't care about his seemingly sarcastic words.
Sure enough, Zabuza continued: "If you want to kill me, you can do it from the beginning. Even if you want to know the information about the Kingdom of Water, there is no need to speak.

The illusion of the Sharingan is very powerful and cannot be resisted by ordinary ninjas. Even Zabuza would not dare to look into those eyes without a powerful companion.
"So, you must have other things you want me to do. Hmm, what matters does the noble Hokage need to entrust to me, a traitorous ninja?"
The corners of Zhenna's lips raised slightly: "Very good, I'm starting to feel a little satisfied with you."
She did have something she wanted Zabuza to do, but it wouldn't work if Zabuza was a fool.
Now it seems that although he assassinated Mizukage and did not prepare more back-ups, it seems a bit silly, but it is not really brainless.
Zhenna said: "In that case, let's talk somewhere else."
She formed the seal again.
"Fire Escape, Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique!"
Five huge fireballs were spit out and flew in different directions under her exquisite control. Wherever the fireballs passed, the huge heat caused the fragile mist to evaporate and disappear instantly.
Everything around him became clear again.
Mana turned around and called Sasuke: "Follow me."
The results of Sasuke's hard training in taijutsu during this period were revealed.

"In that case, you go over there."
Pointing to an open space next to him, Mana allowed Sasuke to compete.
Zabuza said: "Don't underestimate Shiro, this kid has been through many battles with me."
Zhenna said: "Of course I can see it, and he must have the power of Xuejie. The ice wall that helped you block my Phoenix Fire was made by her."
Hearing this, Zabuza was a little confused: "Since you know, you are not worried?"

There were things she wanted to verify.
So Zabuza said no more.

It seems to be the case.
But having said that, he really needs to find a place to stay as soon as possible. Without shelter, he may not survive for long.
Zabuza is very clear about the madness of Kirigakure Village's assassination team. Although he is confident in his own strength, he is homeless and cannot defeat four people with just two fists. If Kirigakure Village continues to attack him in order to regain the beheading sword, It will be difficult to persist even if you don't cut it.
Thinking of this, his tone softened a little: "Where is the organization you mentioned?"
Zhenna handed him a small piece of paper: "Follow the instructions above, and their leader will send someone to see you soon."
Now Nagato and Konan are still studying hard in another world, how can anyone contact Zabuza!
Just as their conversation came to fruition, the battle between Sasuke and Shiro also came to a conclusion.
You can tell the result just by looking at Sasuke's drooping look.
But even though he lost, he also caused Bai a lot of damage that cannot be ignored.
Zhenna waved to him: "Come here."
The little kitten, which was beaten and disgraced, came to her pitifully.
Mana was treating Sasuke with one hand, and asked Zabuza: "Where's yours? Do you need me to treat it?"
Zabuza said, "Haku himself knows medical ninjutsu."
Mana praised: "At his age, it is indeed very rare to have good fighting strength and learn medical ninjutsu at the same time."
Sasuke looked even more lost.
Zhenna smiled and said: "Okay, I will teach you some powerful ninjutsu when I go back. I will definitely defeat him next time."
Simple children are so easy to coax. Sasuke suddenly became excited and even the wounds on his body no longer hurt: "Really? What kind of powerful ninjutsu is this?"
Mana said: "Would you like to learn the skills of the Senju monster? I told Tsunade that she has no objection to me teaching you the secret technique of the Senju."
Anyway, there are only a few members of the Senju clan left now. Tsunade alone can have the final say on this kind of thing. Besides, when it comes to the secret technique of the Senju, Mana has more control over it than Tsunade. .
The First Hokage and the Second Hokage really had no reservations when teaching her.
Sasuke's eyes lit up when he heard this: "I've agreed, I want to learn. Teacher Mana, don't go back on your word!"
He had personally seen Mana demonstrate to him that he could break a large rock that was much taller than his height with just one punch.
It is said that if you use your full strength, the destructive power will be even more terrifying.
Sasuke has wanted to learn this for a long time!
Seeing that the wilted child regained his energy, Mana smiled and said to Zabuza: "Then, Mr. Zabuza, I will meet you again soon."
Zabuza knew that what this meant was that next time she would come alone to talk to him about the Kingdom of Water.
It's just...since you don't plan to let that brat from the Uchiha clan know, why did you bring him with you?
Zabuza didn't want to understand this question, but he couldn't ask it directly, so he just nodded stiffly and watched Manahi Raijin leave.
Of course, from this day on, Sasuke's training became even harder.
After Konoha's Peace Daily accumulated a certain reader base, under Mana's instruction, it began to publish articles discussing topics such as what peace is and what kind of existence a ninja should be.
Mana doesn't agree with the saying that 'ninjas are just tools'.
To this end, she also deleted, deleted, and changed a lot of the ninja regulations she learned in the ninja school.
After all, while promoting Konoha's tender will of fire, while also saying that ninjas are just tools to complete tasks, this is simply to teach the next generation to be elite.
In Mana's view, if a will must be instilled in Konoha, then the will of fire can be used for the time being.
Just throw away the set of tools completely.
If she had done this in other villages, there would have been huge resistance, but Konoha's will of fire is deeply rooted in life. Under the leadership of the third generation of Konoha ninjas, the atmosphere has always been warm and affectionate, especially among the companions in the team. Friendship makes it easier for everyone to abandon the saying that 'ninjas are just tools'.
It's just that someone mentioned a few words about the former 'White Teeth'.
Mana knew that White Fang ultimately failed the mission because he gave up the mission to rescue his companions. After returning to the village, he was criticized and scolded by everyone, and finally chose to commit suicide.
A powerful ninja who was once as famous as the Sannin of Konoha by relying only on his sword skills fell like this.
This also had a profound impact on Hatake Kakashi later.
Mana never believed that a powerful ninja who killed countless people on the battlefield would collapse and commit suicide because of some rumors. I'm afraid there was a lot of pressure from other aspects.
However, at this time, she was too lazy to settle old scores with the Third Generation and Danzo, but she could not ignore the matter, so soon, Jiraiya's article was published in the Peace Daily, specifically discussing the balance between tasks and favors.
Mana visited the Hatake family and apologized to the Hatake family on behalf of the village as Hokage.
She may not mention the responsible persons again, but there is no doubt that it is wrong to let Hatake Sakumo bear all the blame while the village did nothing during this period.
Facing Mana, Hatake Kakashi was silent for a long time, and then said in a dry voice: "Hokage-sama, there is no need to be like this, what happened back then...just let it pass."
Maybe when he was young, he would simply think that it was just because his father failed to complete the task, but now, looking back, he can't help but understand the undercurrent that was surging under the rumors back then.
But now, Hatake Sakumo finally waited for a fair result.
Mana calls him the hero of Konoha.
For Kakashi, it was enough now.
None of this is Mana's responsibility after all.
Because Mana publicly admitted that the incident of White Fang's death was the village's fault, those who took advantage of White Fang's incident to feel weird had nothing to say.
The voices within Konoha gradually became unified.
Hinata Hizu noticed the edge hidden under Mana's words.
Recalling the conversation with Mana, Hinata Hizashi understood that Mana would probably lead public opinion to discuss the rights of ninjas next. At that time, the caged bird of the Hyuga clan would inevitably become one of the focuses of discussion.
Because if it is wrong to say that ninjas are born to be inferior and should be used as tools to sacrifice for others, then it is naturally wrong to say that the branch family should be labeled as a caged bird to 'protect' the clan.
At this time, Danzo came to visit him again.
This is not the first time Danzo has come to the Hyuga clan. Of course, he has mentioned to Hyuga Hizashi how big of a threat Uchiha Mana is more than once.
At this time, Danzo came again to remind: "If the Hyuga clan does not take action again, I am afraid that the Hyuga clan will really be destroyed in her hands! The Hiashi clan leader must think carefully."
Hinata Hiashi sighed: "I, the Hyuga clan, have always supported the village's decision, but the caged bird is the foundation of the Hyuga clan's inheritance for thousands of years. I will never let the Hyuga clan's inheritance be ruined in my hands!"
Uchiha Mana forced him to do all this!
A smile finally appeared on Danzo's wrinkled face.
For the first time in such a long time, Hinata Hizu finally gave him a clear answer.
So Mana was lucky enough to see Hinata Neji standing outside the Hokage's office building with a serious look on his face a few days later.
The kid couldn't get into the Hokage's building, so he simply stayed outside all day long. As soon as he saw Mana, he immediately said eagerly: "Hokage-sama, I have something to tell you!"
Mana made a gesture, and the hidden Anbu immediately dispersed to form guards in the outer circle. Mana said to Neji: "Come in with me. Sit down and talk about anything."
She took Neji back to the office. Before she could sit down, Neji said: "Hokage-sama, the situation in the Hyuga clan is very strange recently. I think they want to do you harm!"
Mana raised an eyebrow: "It seems that the Hyuga clan has made a decision."
Seeing her calm expression, Neji seemed to feel a little more at ease: "Hokage-sama, many clan members spoke ill of you behind your back some time ago, but not everyone is like that."
Mana smiled: "I know, let's not talk about this first, how did you know that the Hyuga clan is going to be detrimental to me?"
Even if Hinata and Hinata made a decision about this kind of thing, it would be impossible for a child like Neji to know about it, right?
Neji said: "Because some people in the clan said bad things about you before, but no one cared about it. Recently, the clan leader suddenly ordered not to discuss Naruto publicly. However, the atmosphere in the clan has not relaxed at all, but has become more tense."
Neji, who sensed something was wrong, of course tried to understand the situation.
Although he was a child, his father Hyuga Hizashi still had some friends back then. Because he knew that Neji usually did not agree with those who spoke ill of Naruto behind his back, this time he specifically warned him to be careful with Naruto. A group of people keep their distance.
Neji is a smart kid, how could he not understand when he heard these words?
Zhenna said: "If you come out to see me so recklessly, I'm afraid you will get into trouble."
Mana didn't think that Hinata Hizashi didn't know about Neji's actions, but he probably still felt guilty about Hinata Hizashi in his heart, so he didn't want to use drastic measures to deal with Neji. Anyway, he, a child, couldn't possibly know any secrets. Just let him run out.
Mana said in her heart that Hinata and Hinata seemed very confident in her character in this matter.
Neji said: "I'm not afraid! I... I just don't want you to get hurt. You are the first Hokage to speak for the separation of families in so many years."
Neji believed that he was different from those ungrateful members of the Separate Family.
Moreover, he sometimes wonders, if the Hokage back then was not the third generation, but Mana Uchiha, would his father not have died?
Mana said: "No matter what you think, at least you can't go back to the Hyuga clan. Even if Hyuga and Hizashi won't care about you, others may not."
Neji said oh, but he didn't really care about this matter.
Mana said: "If you don't mind, go and live with Gaara for a while first. Do you know him, right? He is the jinchūriki of Sand Ninja Village, and he is very powerful."
Anyway, Gaara already has a lot of ANBU protection, so having Neci and Gaara work together can save some manpower.
Ningci said: "I will listen to your arrangements."
Zhenna burst out laughing: "Last time I said I wanted to accept you as my disciple, but you didn't even agree."
Neji blushed a little: "...I didn't refuse."
At that time, he just couldn't believe it and felt that everything was so unreal.
But now, he has already understood that the Fifth Hokage is a good Hokage who really considers the separation of families.
Mana thinks this kid is so cute.
After arranging for Hyuga Neji, Mana began to arrange things about the Hyuga clan.
She doesn't think she will lose, the only difference is how to win.
If her winning method is similar to what the past three generations of Hokages and others did, allowing Konoha's talents to be consumed in internal fighting, then even if she wins, she is actually losing.
She couldn't afford to weaken Konoha as the price of her fight.
Therefore, in reality, the matter of the Hyuga clan is not so easy to solve.
With this in mind, Mana called Uchiha Shisui the next day: "There is a mission that requires you to leave the village for a few days. Go back and make arrangements."
Uchiha Shisui nodded.
He didn't ask any more questions. As a ninja, it was quite normal to receive emergency missions at short notice. Missions out of the village were even more common. His things were always packed and ready for use. Of course, Shisui also understood that Mana asked him to go back and make arrangements. It's not just about getting some clothes and tools, but it's also important to arrange things within the Uchiha clan during his absence.
Half an hour later, Uchiha Shisui returned to the Hokage's office again, and Mana stretched out his hand to him: "Hold my hand."
Then the next moment, they appeared in an underground base.
Surrounded by stone walls, the room has no entrance or windows. It is just a sealed box with dense runes painted on it from the floor to the walls to the ceiling.
This is a room that can only be entered through the Flying Thunder God Jutsu.
Zhenna said: "I'm afraid we have to move to a new place next. I'll explain to you the details when we get there."
Uchiha Shisui nodded.
The quality of being an excellent ninja was reflected at this time, so that he really didn't ask a single word without asking.
Mana's plan is quite simple.
There can be a time difference between different worlds. In this case, she can certainly use this time difference to let Uchiha Shisui go to the world of stone to study.
…In other words, it’s a long experience.
Mana feels that only after seeing such a world can we truly understand what a peaceful and prosperous world looks like.
Otherwise, no matter how much people say it, it will just be an illusory picture.
Since she wants to solve the problem of the Hyuga clan, she needs the firm and full support of other ninjas in the village. But once the Hyuga clan uses the reason that the caged bird is the internal affairs of the Hyuga clan, other ninjas will inevitably be affected.
Even if Mana discusses this truth through the Peace Daily, it will be useless.
How can things that have not been realized, scenes that no one has ever seen, and the influence of just a few articles in a short period of time have a more profound impact on people than thousands of years of tradition?
When he discovered that the surrounding environment had changed, Uchiha Shisui's eyes showed obvious surprise, but he still followed Mana's previous words and didn't ask a single word.
When Teriya received Mana's call and rushed over, Mana directly threw Uchiha Shisui to Teriya: "Shisui is a member of the same race from my hometown. Please explain the situation to him."
Teriya nodded and explained the new world to Uchiha Shisui very seriously.
Later, when Uchiha Shisui slowly digested this thing that could be called a subversion of the world view, Teriya asked Mana: "Does Mana plan to bring other people here in the future?"
Zhenna nodded: "That's the plan."
Teriyaki then said: "If this is the case, I think we should prepare a special explanatory document. Although we can also introduce the situation, if time is limited, it is difficult to cover everything. If it is distributed in the form of information, more information can be obtained. There is a lot of content, and you can also add some other problems you encounter in daily life, which will be much more convenient."
Mana also thinks this is a good idea.
Teriyaki said: "Then I will make an instruction manual later."
Soon, Nagato came back.
He should go to school today, but this kind of thing can be done with one clone, and it's no problem for him to run back.
Several months have passed in this world. Mana saw that Nagato had obviously gotten rid of the initial skinny appearance, and his body seemed to have some more well-proportioned muscles. Although he didn't look too strong, at least he was within the healthy range. .
Nagato was not too surprised by Shisui's arrival: "I thought before that you should arrange for others to come over soon."
Mana nodded: "Let Shisui take over the affairs here. You and Konan are going back. I have recruited new members for you, but for the former members of the Akatsuki organization, you and Uchiha Obito still need to compete for them."
Nagato said: "I understand."
Zhenna asked again: "If you don't use the clan ability, will your strength be considered restored?"
It stands to reason that when Mana existed in that world, Nagato should also be able to use abilities as a clan member, but Mana believed that this was not stable. After all, the power stored in the small flower stone she carried was limited, and it would not be possible if the chain was broken at a critical moment. Too bad.
Nagato is very confident about this: "Although I have lost my reincarnation eye, my body does not need to face such a heavy burden. It does have an impact on my strength, but it is not as big as imagined."
"That's fine."
After confirming that Nagato was indeed in good condition, Mana planned to take him back as soon as possible.
As for the identity of 'high school student Uchiha Mana' in this world, it will probably be left to Uchiha Shisui to inherit.
Unexpectedly, Nagato said: "Regarding the matter here, the commander-in-chief of Totsuki wants to meet with you. In addition, Totsuki's autumn selection is about to begin. Yukihira Soma will participate, and this competition will also Celebrities who have a good relationship with Totsuki are invited to serve as judges, and Commander Nakiri asked you if you are interested in this."
Mana laughed: "It seems that he has great confidence in Yukihira Souma."
This move not only showed her the excellent seedlings cultivated by Totsuki and proved Totsuki's future development potential, but also allowed her to see the growth of Souma Yukihira with her own eyes.
After all, time can be accurately positioned when traveling across the world, so Mana is not too anxious.
On the second day, I went to Wisteria Restaurant for dinner with Nakiri Senzaemon.
During this period, the fall selection was naturally discussed again.
Zhenna said: "Forget it being a judge, I'm not very good at food."
Nakiri Senzaemon was not surprised by this answer. He then asked: "In that case, the topic of this selection has not been decided yet. Are you interested in being the question maker?"
Mana blinked: "Question? Any question is acceptable?"
"Of course, any topic will do."
Mana: "Then Bingliangwan!"
Next to her, Erina Nakiri, who was eating quietly, suddenly trembled: "No, you can't!"
Nakiri Senzaemon: "...?"
