Uchiha Kagami was silent for a moment, then said calmly:
"He was an outstanding ninja with excellent leadership skills."
"He is kind and generous, and also possesses great strength."
“A very objective analysis.” Uchiha Shinka nodded. “Very good. You haven’t been influenced by some ignorant clansmen who think the Third Hokage was just an incompetent old man.”
Shenhuo said solemnly, "I have many grievances against Hiruzen Sarutobi, but I have to admit that among our generation, only he deserves the position of Third Hokage."
"Your grandfather also had a chance... unfortunately..."
Uchiha Kagami shook his head and made a judgment about the ancestor who shared the same name as him: "Even if Ancestor Kagami had not passed away, he would not have competed with the Third Hokage for the position."
“...That’s true, Jing, you’ve already developed the mindset of a clan leader.”
"Hiruzen Sarutobi is already planning to step down. The Fourth Hokage might be one of the Legendary Sannin. Given your age... we should be able to contend for the Fifth Hokage position."
Just as Shenhuo was about to launch into a long speech, Uchiha Kagami stood up, propping himself up on his knees.
"Elder, did you call me here just to discuss the contents of this clan meeting?"
"When you're the first generation, you're thinking about becoming the second; when you're the third, you're thinking about becoming the fifth. You're always pinning your hopes on the next one. In my opinion..."
Uchiha Kagami stared directly into Shinka's eyes without fear: "You're no different from Clan Chief Fugaku."
"I'm leaving now. You can vent your frustrations at the clan meeting."
"Wait a moment."
Uchiha Shinka remained expressionless and said in a deep voice, "From what you're saying, you still want to compete for the Fourth Hokage title?"
"No, I have no interest in the Hokage."
Uchiha Kagami turned his head and said calmly, "Since when has the Uchiha clan needed the title of Hokage to prove themselves?"
“Elder Shenhuo, I hate this cowardly mentality of our people, even you are like that.”
"I appreciate your gift, but don't expect me to do what you say, and you don't need to give me any lessons."
After saying that, Uchiha Kagami turned around and continued walking until he reached the entrance hall, where Uchiha Shinka's voice came from.
"I will be waiting for you at the training ground tomorrow and will teach you all my ninjutsu."
"An old man like me is certainly not qualified to tell you what to do, but please let me do something useful."
"For the future of the Uchiha!"
Uchiha Kagami paused in his steps.
"I see."
Under the moonlight, Uchiha Kagami walked through the clan's territory, where some shops were preparing to close.
"Mirror! Are you having fun at school?"
"I heard you defeated the Hatake family's genius! Haha, as expected of Kagami!"
"Remember to stop by my place tomorrow morning, I've prepared red bean soup for you!"
Along the way, the tribespeople greeted us warmly.
Uchiha Kagami responded to each of them with a smile, a stark contrast to his coldness towards Uchiha Shinka.
Due to the influence of their eye power, the stronger the Uchiha clan members are, the more aloof and cold they become. However, ordinary Uchiha clan members are no different from ordinary people.
Including those who haven't yet awakened their true nature, there are over two thousand people...
Obito... Itachi...
Even someone as awful as me can't imagine it.
How could you harm these neighbors, the elderly, women, and children, who are related by blood...?
When they got home, Grandma was still comforting Xiao Zhishui.
Shisui's parents died after giving birth to him, leaving only three people in the family.
Compared to the orphans of ordinary ninjas, the orphans of the Uchiha clan had a much better life.
Some families, like Jing, can be adopted, and those from poor families will take care of each other among their relatives.
After all, even the Second Hokage has acknowledged that the Uchiha are a more loving clan than the Senju.
Lost love can turn into hate...
If only the Uchiha clan would never be lost, wouldn't that solve the problem?
I will protect the fate of this race!
"Grandma, I'm back."
Chapter 6 "Solution"
"Your chakra nature is fire, lightning, and earth. Including the Yin Release of the Sharingan, you are born with four chakra natures."
Shenhuo took the chakra test paper and said, "Not bad, this attribute is very suitable for cultivating our clan's techniques."
"This guy is probably at the level of a top-tier sorcerer," Su Nuo's voice rang out.
In the mental space, Su Nuo finally managed to gain two hours of external perception each day.
"Just like you."
"Kid... the reason I was rated as Special Grade is because that's the highest level I can go!"
"I know, so how many fingers do you think he's equivalent to?" The reason Uchiha Kagami gave Sukuna a chance to vent was simply because he was being used as a unit of measurement.
Su Nuo felt that the kid's words were a bit disrespectful to him... but after a few years, he had gotten used to it.
"Three, I suppose, but kid, my strength now is far beyond what twenty can describe. I've already..."
Ignoring Sukuna's next words, Uchiha Kagami focused his attention on Kamikaze.
Divine Fire is not an ordinary three-tomoe Sharingan; its strength should be among the strongest below the Mangekyou Sharingan.
Originally, Uchiha Kagami hated comparing combat strength across worlds the most, but now that he is deeply involved, he has to consider this issue.
Sukuna is currently at his peak, having mastered the Space Slash. So, compared to the Nine-Tails, who has achieved the perfect balance of Yin and Yang...
It's unrealistic to expect to know now; Konoha wouldn't allow Kurama (the Nine-Tails) to come into contact with the Uchiha clan, given the painful lessons learned from the past.
"Fire Release and Sharingan are the foundation upon which the Uchiha clan stood during the Warring States period. I don't know Lightning Release ninjutsu, but I'll teach you the simple Earth Release later."
"Since you already know the Great Fireball Technique, then I will teach you..."
"The art of dragon fire!"
"The main purpose of the Fireball is to obscure the enemy's vision and block their position."
"The Dragonfire is a high-speed fire attack that can defeat an enemy in one strike. Watch closely."
Shenhuo slowed down his movements and glanced out of the corner of his eye to see that Uchiha Kagami had already activated his Sharingan. He nodded to himself.
Without being reminded, he knows to activate his Sharingan to observe the flow of chakra; that's good.
Si-chen-mao-yin.
After completing the hand seals, a flame, like that spewed by a fire dragon, rushed forward at high speed and instantly exploded into a huge fireball in the center of the lake!
"This technique is best used with the Sharingan to increase the chances of hitting the enemy."
After several attempts, Uchiha Kagami formed hand seals and mobilized his chakra.
A burst of extremely fast flame shot out, and the dragon fire, slightly smaller than the previous ball of flame, exploded.
"Excellent! As expected of you!"
Even the stern Uchiha Shinka couldn't help but smile.
"Then I'll teach you the next fire..."
“Not for now.” Uchiha Kagami shook his head. “I still need to practice this technique. Haste makes waste. I’ll learn the next one after I’ve fully mastered this one.”
Shenhuo pondered for a moment and then laughed, "Haste makes waste; that's not the kind of understanding a child like you should have."
"It's true that settling down is important. So practice on your own, and ask me if you don't understand anything."
"It's just a matter of proficiency; I can practice during the day too." With that, Uchiha Kagami took out the small katana that the divine fire had given him, Sode no Shirayuki.
"Elder Shenhuo, could you please instruct me in swordsmanship?"
In the ninja world, there is no clear distinction between swords and blades; even those who use swords are referred to as swordsmanship.
"I almost forgot, your talent for swordsmanship is even better than your talent for fire release techniques."
Shenhuo took out the long sword he always carried and nodded.
"Come on, you can start attacking at any time."
As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Kagami's small body leaped up, his sleeve, White Snow, was drawn, and a clear, bright blade flashed.
After blocking Uchiha Kagami's slash, Shinka commented, "His speed and timing are both good, and his strength is about the same as that of a Chunin in the clan."
"Jing, you are truly a genius comparable to our ancestors!"
Uchiha Kagami knew who Kamui was comparing him to: Uchiha Izuna.
Unfortunately, even for Uchiha Izuna, his most memorable identity was simply that of Madara's younger brother.
A red light flashed in Uchiha Kagami's eyes.
I don't want to be comparable to my ancestors; I want to surpass them!
The white snow-white sleeve pierced out, aiming straight for Uchiha Shinka's throat.
The current Uchiha Kagami is no match for the Divine Fire, so he naturally goes all out and unleashes a barrage of deadly moves.
Uchiha Shinka remained calm and dodged the fierce attack with a sidestep, while simultaneously swinging his long sword towards Uchiha Kagami's arm.
He turned to parry, and with a clang, the two knives clashed violently, sending sparks flying.
On the training ground by the lake, swords flashed and spears clashed constantly.
Uchiha Kagami's attacks became increasingly rapid, while his divine fire defense remained impenetrable, occasionally allowing him to launch a few counterattacks.
Just as Shenhuo relaxed a little, Uchiha Kagami, who had been holding the sword with both hands, suddenly freed one hand.
With his left hand facing the face of the divine fire, his four fingers were outstretched.
Years of combat experience allowed Shenhuo to instantly sense danger, and the Sharingan with three tomoe suddenly appeared in his pupils.
An invisible slash swept past, and at the last moment, the divine fire barely avoided the terrifying cut that was about to sever half of his face.
But there was still a clear bloodstain on his face, and scarlet blood slid down.
"What's this?"
It was an invisible blade, like the edge of a razor, somewhat like the wind blades he had encountered before.
But that's an A-rank Wind Release ninjutsu. Where did Kagami learn it from?!
Moreover, there was no sound of wind. If it were a wind blade, the Sharingan with its three tomoe could easily have avoided it.
After the attack, Uchiha Kagami was exhausted and collapsed to the ground.
This body is still too weak. He estimated that, not counting the consumption of ninjutsu, he could only use three or four "disarming" slashes at full strength.
The basic ability of Ryoumen Sukuna, when developed to its extreme, is the ability to cut and slash through space.
"This is a secret slashing technique that I developed myself."
"Heh, it's nothing more than stealing my power!" Su Nuo scoffed disdainfully.
What a joke! No matter where it came from, just tell me if I used it or not.
After a moment of contemplation, Shenhuo said with a wry smile, "Mirror, you used such a dangerous technique on me without even giving me a heads-up?"
Uchiha Kagami gave a carefree, awkward laugh: "Ha, I believe Elder Shenhuo can definitely handle it!"
"To be honest, if I didn't have the Sharingan, it would be very difficult to block this invisible slash."
"I won't ask you how you learned this ability, but I suggest you keep it as a secret trump card and don't use it lightly."
"If you're not prepared for this technique, it could instantly kill a special Jonin!"
Ninjas are known for their high attack but low defense. It is said that even a ninja of Hashirama Senju's caliber could be killed by kunai.
