Naruto: This Uchiha is too innocent.

Chapter 9 The Storm Is Brewing

Leaving Ichiraku Ramen,

Uchiha Sora was at a loss for what to do, so he began to wander aimlessly.

Along the way, Uchiha Sora could vaguely hear people pointing and whispering about him from the roadside:

"That child seems to be from the Uchiha clan."

"Uchiha? That cold-blooded clan?"

"Tsk, I've heard that the Uchiha are emotionless killing machines on the battlefield, and their personalities are all extremely cold. I've even heard that they can't laugh anymore."

"Look, this child in front of you, although he is still young, has a distinctly indifferent expression on his face."

"If you ask me, the Uchiha clan should be wiped out of Konoha."

Hearing the whispers and gossip along the way, some with pity and others with sarcasm, Uchiha Sora's expression remained unchanged. He did not argue, and his pace did not even change.

Are the Uchiha clan cold-blooded?

The Uchiha clan's bloodline limit requires intense emotions to awaken.

In principle, love, hate, and passion can all stimulate the awakening of the Sharingan.

However, in this world, only pain penetrates the human heart the most deeply; compared to love, hate and pain are far easier to experience.

If the person you cherish dies, there is a very high probability that you can awaken the Sharingan.

And the place where hatred and pain are most intense is often the battlefield.

Therefore, most Uchiha who survived the war could awaken the Sharingan. As more people died, their emotions naturally became weaker.

Having those eyes proves that I have lost a lot so far.

Strictly speaking, the Uchiha are the clan that values ​​emotions the most in the ninja world, but the eyes that awakened due to pain were regarded as cold-blooded by the people of Konoha.

How ironic.

Next to Ichiraku Ramen is Konoha's clothing store, where beautiful girls are happily selecting exquisite clothes.

These shops are really bold; they can still stay open even though the Land of Fire is at war.

Uchiha Sora initially didn't want to pay any attention, but as he passed the clothing store, a glance at it made him stop.

Because he saw several unexpected people.

The red-eyed girl gesturing with her hands spread open on her clothes, the short-haired girl with two painted lines on her cheeks, and a cool and sassy girl.

It's just Kurenai Yuhi, Rin, and Anko Mitarashi.

Surprisingly, the three of them ended up shopping for clothes together.

But...

Uchiha Sora stroked his chin. Now that Rin is here, is that guy nearby too?

He looked around and sure enough, he spotted the bespectacled boy at a snack shop not far away.

He chuckled softly, "As expected, wherever Rin is, Obito is too."

After thinking for a moment, he walked over...

……

The snack shop wasn't crowded; only a handful of people were eating fried skewers and discussing interesting things that had happened in recent days, creating a strong sense of everyday life.

Among the few people, Obito absentmindedly ate his grilled sausage, his eyes constantly fixed on the girl with face paint in the clothing store not far away.

"Lin, so cute..." he murmured, looking every bit the pig-headed boy.

"My mouth is watering just looking at it."

A mocking voice came from the side.

Obito was startled and quickly wiped his mouth with his sleeve, only to find nothing there. Looking up, he saw Uchiha Sora barely suppressing a laugh.

Even with his thick skin, he blushed deeply and angrily retorted, "Kong, what nonsense are you spouting!"

After saying that, he threw the sausage stick directly at Uchiha Sora.

Uchiha Sora smiled slightly, precisely pinching the wooden stick between two fingers, and sat down under Obito's fierce gaze.

"Boss, five skewers of lamb," he called out, then looked back at Obito.

"Just kidding, there's no need to stare at me like that, like you're going to eat me alive. It's not like you've only liked Lin for a short time."

Obito was startled. He instantly flashed in front of Uchiha Sora, covered the latter's mouth, and stammered:

"How...how did you know?!"

Uchiha Sora slapped Obito's hand away without any mercy, and sneered, "What do you mean 'how would I know'? You should ask who doesn't know."

As they were talking, the owner brought over two skewers of lamb, and he casually handed one to Obito.

Mmm, the sizzling, oily grilled meat, glistening with a golden sheen, is incredibly tempting, its allure comparable to "The Temptation of Going Home".

Taking a bite, Uchiha Sora's eyes lit up slightly. He hadn't expected the lamb skewers to be so delicious, and he silently marked the shop.

Obito took the skewers, but had no appetite for them. His mind was filled with Uchiha Sora's words from earlier, so he put the skewers aside.

"Is the emptiness really that obvious?"

"Oh, your eyes are practically glued to Lin. I bet everyone else knows about this except you."

Obito blushed and stammered, "Rin, where's Rin?"

"Rin?" Uchiha Sora hesitated for a moment, somewhat uncertain. "She should... know too, right?"

In the original work, it seems that Obito had a one-sided love affair, perhaps.

Upon hearing this, Obito wore a miserable expression, "Sigh, it's no use just because I like Rin, Rin doesn't like me!"

"Oh, how do you know Lin doesn't like you?"

"Because Lin has someone she likes."

"Huh? Which one?" Uchiha Sora asked in surprise.

Gossip, gossip!

Who gave our Kamui's Unconcealable Tears to the cow? Hmm... saying cow isn't quite right, after all, our Lord Obito never possessed it.

But as soon as he spoke, he noticed that Obito's gaze towards him had become unusually...resentful.

All that could be heard was his sinister voice: "Who?" He spoke in a sarcastic tone, "Who doesn't know that our Uchiha genius has captivated countless girls at the Ninja Academy? His Summoning Jutsu is absolutely earth-shattering and awe-inspiring."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Sora blinked, coughed twice, and picked up a skewer of grilled meat.

"Obito, look, this barbecue is really barbecue..."

Obito glared at him angrily, then casually took a big bite of the grilled meat, as if that would relieve his anger.

"Hey! What's Sora doing here?"

Just as Obito was engrossed in grilling the meat, a girl's exclamation came from beside him. He looked up resentfully, his tone cool.

"Hey, don't ignore me, you jerk!"

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry!" Kurenai Yuhi immediately clapped her hands and apologized profusely.

Empty! I'll never forgive you!!!

Uchiha Sora couldn't help but chuckle, and then extended his palm towards Yuhi Kurenai.

The latter was startled, realized something, and blushed as she placed her hand in her empty palm.

……silence,

Uchiha Sora slapped away the girl's soft hand without any mercy, his smile forced and insincere.

"Have you forgotten something?"

"What? You have no sense of romance at all." Kurenai Yuhi stuck out her tongue, casually pulled a few pieces of candy from her pocket, and placed them in Uchiha Sora's hand. "I remember, one month and one week."

Lin also came over from the side and placed a handful of nuts in Uchiha Kuro's hand.

Seeing her slightly flushed face, Uchiha Sora's heart stirred.

Lin is actually a very lively person, but why is she always so weak in front of him?

Recalling Obito's earlier comment, "Rin has someone she likes," he narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Could it be that Obito was right?" he thought to himself.

"Hey, why are you feeding this guy?!" Mitarashi Anko stared wide-eyed at Sora with suspicion, trying to find something amiss in the unusual relationship between the group.

Could it be that Kong has caught Hong and Lin red-handed?

"Anko, we lost a bet with him." Kurenai Yuhi grabbed Anko Mitarashi's wrist and explained apologetically.

Uchiha Sora silently watched the girls' actions and thought this kind of life was not bad.

But how long can it last?

A storm is brewing.
