Naruto: The Uchiha's Scientific Madman

Uchiha Ao returned home.

His younger brother and sister quickly came to greet him.

"Brother, you're back!"

His younger brother, Uchiha Ran, is two years younger than him. He is just ten years old this year and is still in school. He has excellent grades and there is a high probability that he will go directly to work in the police department after graduation.

The police department holds a very high position within the Uchiha clan, and the vast majority of resources are obtained through the police department.

Those who join the police department are essentially the core members of the family and are the focus of their development.

People with average talent like Uchiha Ao could only serve as ordinary clansmen, training in the Jonin class established by the village.

Secondly, there are ordinary clansmen who lack ninja talent.

For example, their mother was an ordinary person who had never practiced chakra and worked as a housewife at home.

Aoba's father died when she was eight years old.

They were left behind, mother and children, who lived with the support of their family.

They also have a youngest sister named Zi, who is just eight years old and also attends the ninja academy.

"Hmm, why are you all out of school so early today?"

"Uchiha Ao asked curiously."

It's around 3 or 4 pm now, and the ninja school won't let out for another two hours.

"This afternoon, the school needed to prepare for tomorrow's graduation ceremony, and the Third Hokage will be coming, so they gave me half a day off."

"Uchiha Ran replied."

His eyes flashed, and after a moment's hesitation, he continued to ask.

"Brother, do you know which squad you've been assigned to?"

There have been some unpleasant rumors circulating recently.

They said his older brother's talent was poor and no teacher wanted him, so the Third Hokage forcibly assigned him to Team 4.

However, he heard that the entire family of the Jonin leading Team 4 had died in the Nine-Tails' attack.

If my older brother goes to a class like that, he will definitely be targeted.

They even face life-threatening situations when on missions.

"I don't know, what? What did you hear?!"

Uchiha Ao asked. For the past two weeks, he had been spending all his time with Orochimaru, trying to persuade him to join Orochimaru's sect. He had no time to pay attention to what was happening in the village.

"I heard that you were assigned to Shimura Kankei's team. He is a member of the Shimura family, and his wife and daughters were killed in the Nine-Tails' rampage..."

Uchiha Ran said with a grim expression.

The Shimura family lives on the edge of the village, very close to the village's perimeter.

Located at the first site where the Nine-Tails erupted.

The casualties were heavy.

More than 30% of the clan members died on the spot.

Less than half of the tribesmen survived the worst of the disaster.

They belong to one of the families that suffered the most casualties in the village.

Shimura Kenkage escaped unharmed because he was away on a mission.

For this reason, the Third Hokage chose to turn a blind eye to Danzo's actions against the Uchiha clan.

They allowed the Uchiha clan's reputation to be arbitrarily tarnished after this turmoil.

"Should we ask the clan leader... to switch us to another team?"

"Uchiha Ran suggested."

The siblings depended on each other for survival and had a very good relationship.

In Uchiha Ran's view.

The main reason why Uchiha Ao was so outspoken and caused trouble was to protect him and his sister.

Even if they are weaker than their opponents, they will bravely stand in front of them to protect them from being bullied.

My brother's spiritual practice is lagging behind because he usually has to work after school to help support the family.

There is no time for spiritual practice.

"We don't have the money to pull strings at home, and you two still have to study. Don't worry—I've already found you a very good place."

Uchiha Ao said with a smile.

He wasn't the original incarnation, but he could still sense that the family relationships were very harmonious.

Most families within the Uchiha clan are very harmonious.

Love and care for each other.

Competition and suppression only arise when different families are vying for resources for spiritual practice.

But Uchiha Ao knew that he simply couldn't treat these two unfamiliar younger siblings as family.

For safety reasons, he did not trust anyone in the Ren family.

"Brother, you don't need to worry about us..."

The younger sister, Uchiha Yukari, spoke up from the side.

She is eight years old and has become much more sensible.

After school, they can also find some things to do within the family to earn a little living expenses.

You don't need to rely on your older brother to do everything anymore.

"Our family has produced three ninjas, so our future life will definitely be good. Brother, don't put too much pressure on yourself."

Uchiha Ran chimed in.

Although Konoha Village is called a ninja village, the proportion of ninjas is actually not high. On average, about one ninja can be produced from three families.

The high casualty rate among chunin and genin has prevented the village's ninja population from increasing.

It wasn't until the war ended in the last two years and the Fourth Hokage took office that the number of ninjas in the village increased somewhat.

The number remained at 20,000.

The number of ninjas in the ninja clan exceeds 15,000.

The division of the ninja clan is also very simple.

A clan with more than ten ninjas can be called a ninja clan.

Even for a powerful clan like the Uchiha, on average, each small family could only produce one ninja.

There weren't many ninjas.

"Dinner is ready, let's eat!"

The mother, busy in the kitchen, peeked out and spoke to her three children in the living room.

Uchiha Ran skillfully unfolded a folding table, while her younger sister brought over four small chairs.

Uchiha Ao walked into the kitchen and found his mother serving soup.

The mother did not have her own name; the neighbors all called her Mrs. Orange because the father's name was Uchiha Orange.

Having stayed at home for many years, she no longer has the courage to go out and work.

After her husband died, she could only take on cleaning and washing jobs among her neighbors to earn a meager living.

Several teenagers were unable to work.

Most of the food in the house comes from the two plots of land in the front and back yards.

Therefore, their family lived in extreme poverty.

The dishes displayed on the cabinet were very simple.

A serving of green vegetables, a serving of pan-fried fish, and a serving of miso soup.

Four people, three dishes.

The staple food is rice porridge, with more soup than rice.

He can barely get enough to eat, but he is not getting enough nutrition, so much so that even at twelve years old, he is still less than 1.5 meters tall.

Their family has no stable source of income, relying mostly on family support and their mother's and his part-time jobs.

The family allowance is about six thousand taels per month.

With his part-time job, he was able to scrape together 10,000 taels, which was barely enough to support his family in the village.

This is also their main source of livelihood.

Other ordinary families simply couldn't afford such expenses.

The simple family meal was enjoyed by the siblings.

After drinking a bowl of porridge, Qing put down her chopsticks and watched her younger siblings eat, her expression slightly relaxed.

I was an orphan in my past life, but I never expected to have family in this life.

He has never spent time with his family.

I don't know how to deal with it.

But according to his view of outsiders, only the exchange of interests can maintain a stable relationship.

The meal was eaten in silence.

This is a rule my father established when he was alive, and we still follow it now.

Even after their father passed away, their mother would still place a pair of bowls and chopsticks on the main seat so that her children would remember their father.

"Knock knock..."

A soft knocking sound broke the calm atmosphere.

The sound came from the main gate outside the courtyard.

Qing stood up, nodded calmly to her mother, and walked out.

Passing through the courtyard, I arrived at the main gate and opened it.

There was an acquaintance outside the door.

The most outstanding representative of the current generation of Uchiha is Uchiha Shisui.

"Shisui, you've come."

Uchiha Ao smiled and said.

"Have you eaten? The elder is looking for you..."

Zhi Shui spoke calmly, his eyes revealing a sense of inquiry and scrutiny.

He discovered some of Qing's secrets.
