Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.

Chapter 217 Uncle Returns to Hire a Famous Person
"In this situation, my presence would be counterproductive."

In the darkness, a thin figure slowly walked out. The resurrected Uchiha Tajima had a look of relief on his weathered face. His pair of black eyes, with a hint of tenderness, looked at the backs of the two brothers Uchiha Madara as they walked away. After sighing, he explained,

"Ready to leave without saying goodbye?"

Seeing his uncle's relieved look, Uchiha Gin raised his eyebrows. He was the one who wanted to meet his two cousins, but now he is also the one who doesn't want to see them. He really doesn't understand. It's just saying goodbye, not a separation of life and death.

"Ban has already made what he believes to be the right choice. If I show up again, it will only upset him."

Uchiha Tajima shook his head. No one knows a son better than his father. Uchiha Madara is a very emotional person. Other people's words and actions may affect his judgment. If he knew that his father was still alive, it would be hard to say what would happen. So he had to try his best to avoid such accidents.

"Okay~ Let's go!"

Uchiha Gin, who couldn't understand the logic of the father and son, immediately gave up thinking, stretched his waist, and said to his uncle,

"It's so far from the beach, don't go there. I'll go there on my own to meet up with Elder Miao."

It's very lively outside now. Uchiha Gin is a well-known figure in the Uchiha clan. If he disappears suddenly, it may cause unnecessary trouble. Uchiha Tajima shook his head and prepared to go alone.

"It's guaranteed to be responsive, uncle."

Uchiha Gin smiled and put his hand on Uchiha Tajima's shoulder. Amid the other's puzzled expression, two living people disappeared out of thin air, leaving no trace in this secluded hut.

Dressed in the formal attire of the Senju clan, Tobirama Senju narrowed his scarlet eyes slightly and observed several young girls with strange auras from the Uchiha clan across from him. He looked at one of the tall black-haired girls with doubt. He always felt that the aura of that girl was very familiar, but he could not remember where he had seen her before.
"The aura of Thunder God? But it doesn't look like it."

Just as he was thinking, a sudden spatial fluctuation made him feel something in his heart.
"Tobirama! Why are you staring at the Uchiha girl? Are you..."

Senju Hashirama, wearing a beige coat, suddenly appeared behind him and patted Senju Tobirama's shoulder vigorously. He smiled heartily, but there was a hint of embarrassment in his tone.
"Humph! Do you think everyone is the same as you?"

Senju Tobirama, whose thoughts were interrupted, looked at his smiling brother and was immediately furious. He then gave the other party an elbow and retorted with a disdainful tone, and he put the unusual movement that just happened behind him.

At the seaside border of the Fire Nation, a huge black ship was hidden under a cliff lined with reefs. An old man was directing his men to carry heavy wooden boxes into the ship. As a golden light flashed, two more figures appeared on the deck of the ship.

"Ugh~~~"

Facing the two people who suddenly appeared, Uchiha Miao, who was in command, had not yet spoken when Uchiha Tajima, who looked livid, lay down on the side of the boat and vomited. Uchiha Gin, the instigator, walked up to him helplessly, patted him on the back, and said,

"It's always like this the first time, you'll get used to it~"

"You are using the technique of the white-haired Senju family?"

Uchiha Tajima, who had vomited out all the acid in his stomach, turned his head with a pale face and looked at Uchiha Gin who had a relaxed expression. He asked in confusion. You know, the space ninjutsu of Senju Tobirama was so strange that even he was exhausted from dealing with it.

"Hey~ It's different. Mine is better than his~"

Uchiha Gin immediately shook his head, saying that he and Senju Tobirama had no connection, and that this technique was different from the other party's.
His is the Flying Thunder God of Minato Namikaze's version, I wonder how much higher it is than that guy Tobirama Senju~
"Kid, you are a genius."

He took a deep look at his eldest nephew. Ever since Uchiha Gin escaped death from the Senju clan more than ten years ago, he has undergone earth-shaking changes. He has become mysterious and unpredictable, making it difficult for him, his uncle, to see through him.

"necessary!"

"Old Patriarch, have you finished talking to the Patriarch?"

Uchiha Miao, who was on the deck, saw that Uchiha Tajima had almost recovered, and asked,
"Let's talk about the meeting later. Business is more important."

Uchiha Tajima, who had just vomited and whose calves were trembling, shook his head. He didn't want his presence to affect his son's judgment.

"Tsk tsk tsk, he is indeed the technological master of Uchiha. He actually created it~"

Taking advantage of the gap between the two people's conversation, Uchiha Yin observed the huge steel ship. The appearance of this ship was a sudden idea of ​​his. After drawing a simple sketch, he gave it to Uchiha Miao for correction.

After getting an affirmative answer that it could be built, Uchiha Gin directly bid out ten gold bricks and handed them to the shocked Uchiha Miao, asking him to work overtime to complete this steel behemoth.

The shape of the entire ship is based on the destroyers of the previous life. It does not have the currently popular masts, and its driving power is entirely driven by chakra. There are multiple turrets on the deck for combatants to release ninjutsu and attack the enemy.

"Gin, where are you going to take us?" After the two old men finished their conversation, they found Uchiha Gin, who was in a state of amazement. Facing his nephew who was hard to understand, Uchiha Tajima asked,

"Uncle, although the Uchiha and Senju clans are temporarily at peace, we must not put all our eggs in one basket."

Uchiha Gin stood at the front of the deck, pointed in a direction, and said to the two people who were thinking behind him,
"In that direction, there is an island country called Wave Country, a place forgotten by the nobles."

"The Land of Waves is the island country next to the Land of Whirlpools?"

The well-informed Uchiha Miao briefly recalled and asked, his old face full of doubts.

"Yes, that's the place."

"What are you doing there?"

Upon hearing that his destination was a small island country, Uchiha Tajima was very unwilling. After all, he was a big shot who occupied half of the ninja world in the Land of Fire, so how could he be confined to such a tiny place.

"Become a great name."

"Hmph~ I don't care what you do? What did you say?"

Uchiha Tajima protested against his nephew's arrangement. He didn't want to go to such a remote place. But just after he cursed, he heard a familiar yet unfamiliar title, which made his heart jump and his voice became hesitant.

"I will let you become the daimyo of Wave Country."

Compared to the five large countries with vast territories, the Wave Country, sandwiched between the Fire Country and the Water Country and adjacent to the Whirlpool Country, has no so-called daimyo. The appearance of the uncle just filled the gap in the Wave Country.

"Although Wave Country is the throat of the sea and a place for passing merchant ships to replenish supplies and rest, there are no local ninjas, only many wandering ninjas and pirates."

In response to Uchiha Gin's explosive remarks, Uchiha Miao, who was familiar with geography, was the first to raise questions. He said that the nobles headed by the daimyo relied on their abundant financial resources to control the ninjas and make them serve them, thereby consolidating their rule. There happened to be no ninjas in the Land of Waves, so no nobles were willing to invest here.

"Do you think I asked you to bring so many people just to let them relax?"

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Gin rolled his eyes in annoyance, pointed at the Uchiha clan members who were busy on the deck, and reminded them,
"They are the ninjas who serve you, the daimyo. Remember to pay them wages~"

"Huh~ Where do I get the money?"

Huh? Can't I get it for free?
Uchiha Tajima had a bitter face, he was now penniless and had no money, how could he have the money to pay the salaries of these clan members? Couldn't he just rely on his own reputation?

"Can you go and see what they are moving?"

Uchiha Gin, who had expected this, pointed at the wooden box that the Uchiha clan members were carrying and said,
"!!!"

The puzzled Uchiha Tajima and Uchiha Miao opened a wooden box casually and were instantly blinded by the golden light in front of them. Especially the uncle, who had just received a new pair of eyes and was not yet used to it. He was immediately stimulated and burst into tears.

"Ah Yin, where did you get so much gold?"

Even though Uchiha Tajima had seen a lot of the world, he couldn't help but tremble when he saw such a large amount of gold.
"I went to the Kingdom of Wind and found a ruin along the way. There was a lot of gold in it, which I looted~"

When it comes to lying, Uchiha Gin was already very familiar with it, and he told the story so flawlessly that the two old men could not find any fault with it.

"We have the people and the money, but the Wave Country is adjacent to the Whirlpool Country, and those guys from the Uzumaki clan are not so easy to get along with."

After someone got rich, Uchiha Tajima suddenly became ambitious and thought that Wave Country was not bad. However, when he thought of the neighbor who was difficult to get along with, he frowned and began to feel a little troubled.
After all, his Mangekyō had been transplanted to Uchiha Madara, and his current eyes were just ordinary Sharingan in Uchiha Miao's stock. With his strength greatly reduced, it was still very stressful for him to fight against the Uzumaki clan in their heyday.

"Hey~ As the saying goes, more friends mean more paths. I told you before that I have a path on the sea, so don't worry. Go to the Land of Waves, be a safe daimyo, develop the economy well, and conserve your energy. Sooner or later, you will be able to use your talents."

My uncle's concerns are understandable. Although the Uzumaki clan has not set foot in the Fire Country in recent years, they are still famous on the sea. They have fought several battles with the Water Country and pinned down several prominent ninja clans of the Water Country.

"An enemy?"

While the three were talking, a small boat appeared on the sea in the distance, rushing towards their ship at a very fast speed. Uchiha Gin, who sensed the arrival of the boat, did not speak, but Uchiha Tajima beside him, after discovering the trace of the boat, asked calmly,
"No, I'm a friend who's here to lead the way. You guys should get along well with each other in the future."
