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

Drip. Drip. Drip.
In the quiet ward, there was only the sound of ticking instruments. Senju Hashirama and the other three sat in front of Uchiha Gin, holding their breath, waiting for him to reveal the unknown secret.

Uchiha Gin, who was the center of attention, did not rush to explain to the curious people. Instead, he looked at the horse urine in his hand at room temperature, curled his lips in disdain, and then a cold white light appeared in his palm, cooling it to the state of smoothie in the blink of an eye. Only then did he unscrew the bottle cap with satisfaction and tasted the iced black tea that was better than Guojiao.
Transparent!
"How do you know how to escape by ice?"

Senju Tobirama, who was sitting on the left, looked at the escape technique performed by Uchiha Gin in surprise. As a master of ninjutsu, he naturally understood the principle of ice escape, which was the bloodline unique to the ninja clan of the Water Country. How could this curly-haired guy know it?
"I have a friend in the Land of Water"

Uchiha Gin, who had just finished enjoying his iced tea, didn't think twice and just opened his mouth. After all, he really had a friend in the Water Kingdom, who happened to be a member of the Snow Clan.

"Stop! We don't want to listen to your nonsense, let's get down to business first."

Knowing Uchiha Gin's nature of talking nonsense, Senju Tobirama started from zero frame and stopped him from going off topic. He said that he would first express his speculation about the identity of the Black Fox Knight and let everyone discuss it.

"Tsk~"

"Gudu."

Uchiha Gin, who was interrupted, pulled up the corners of his drooping mouth, and took a big gulp of ice black tea. His hearty drinking made the three people in the audience swallow their saliva, and they couldn't help but feel a little bit of appreciation for the tea.

"Whoo~"

After taking a long breath, Uchiha Gin looked at the three people's slightly eager eyes, subconsciously tightened the lid of the iced black tea and put it behind him, then changed to a serious look, his eyes became deep,

"All this starts from the day when the Uchiha clan was born."

The day the Uchiha was born?
Senju Hashirama and the other two looked at each other in bewilderment. They thought they had corrected the original topic, but they didn't expect it to go off topic again.

"Cousin, isn't this a little too early?"

Uchiha Madara frowned and raised his hand.
"Morning?"

Scratching his head helplessly, Uchiha Gin blinked his lifeless eyes to express his doubts.
"Just get to the point. We are not in the mood to listen to your Uchiha history."

Senju Tobirama crossed his arms across his chest, his eyes showing disdain without any concealment.

"Okay, okay, young people nowadays"

I finally wanted to give Yin Sansan a happy little lecture, but this white-haired guy is still such a bummer. I wonder how Jin Yin's training is going and whether he can beat this guy up.

"Cousin, do you still remember the stone tablet that was passed down from our family?"

After straightening his expression, Uchiha Gin spoke slowly. This question confused Uchiha Madara, who was listening attentively at the side. Why did he bring up the stone tablet again?
"What happened to the stone tablet?"

The stone tablet of Minamigagawa Shrine has been passed down for many years. It is said that it is an ancient artifact that existed in the early days of the establishment of the Uchiha clan and has been regarded as a family sacred object by successive clan members.

"I speculate that the Black Fox Knight who stole your body is likely from the stone tablet."

"what?"

This sentence confused the three people, especially Uchiha Madara. He racked his brains but couldn't figure out what the connection was between the Black Fox Knight and the ancestral stone tablet.

"Don't rush to refute, let's analyze this issue from a professional perspective."

Seeing the three people about to speak, Uchiha Gin waved his hand before them and began to analyze randomly.

"Cousin, does the ancestral stone tablet require pupil power to decipher?"

"indeed so."

Uchiha Madara nodded. He was a regular user of the stone tablet and would glare at it whenever he had the chance.

"In that case, is the stone tablet stained with your pupil power?"

"Ah this."

After being reminded of this, Uchiha Madara immediately looked thoughtful. It would be a lie to say that there was no such thing. The ancestral stone tablet required extremely strong pupil power to decipher word by word. Even after opening the Mangekyō, it was still quite difficult for him to decipher it. He would not stop until his eyes were sore and his pupil power was exhausted.

"You mean"

Senju Tobirama, who was listening to the conversation between the two, suddenly had a gleam of brilliance in his eyes. He raised his head with a look of realization on his face.
"As expected of Konoha's second-best developer, you can barely keep up with my pace~"

"roll!"

"Hey, you are so immodest. Since you understand, you can tell me about it."

Looking at Senju Tobirama who had a very sour face, Uchiha Gin took out the iced black tea behind him, took great pains to unscrew the bottle cap and drank it.

"Tobirama, do you already know the answer?"

Senju Hashirama, who was confused by what he heard, turned his gaze away from the iced black tea and looked at his brother.
"Well, I roughly understand. The Black Fox Knight should be the chakra left on the stone tablet by a certain Uchiha clan member."

“It doesn’t seem impossible.”

Uchiha Madara's expression was very interesting. Although he also found it unbelievable, after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that this guess made some sense.

The ancestral stone tablet of the Uchiha clan has gone through thousands of years. During this period, countless powerful ancestors have meditated and gained enlightenment in front of it.

It is not impossible that there are one or two ancestors who possess the Kaleidoscope and use special abilities similar to today's transcription seals to engrave chakra with their own consciousness on the stone tablet.

"Madala, I remember you used to go to the shrine to meditate every now and then. Didn't you notice anything unusual?"

Senju Hashirama suddenly remembered that when Konoha was just founded, Uchiha Madara told him every few days that he wanted to go into seclusion to meditate. Could it be that he was infected with something unclean at that time?

"Well, now that you mention it, it seems that there is."

Uchiha Madara bowed his head and lost in memories. He couldn't help but recall that after he opened the Eternal Eye, when he was meditating in front of the stone tablet, he always had a sense of being spied on by a stranger.
But he used his Sharingan to search for a long time and didn't find the peeping Tom, so he just thought it was an illusion because the gap behind him was too big.

"Oh my~ I advised you to smash the broken stone tablet and throw it into the sea, but you didn't believe me. Now you are possessed by a ghost~"

Seeing that the matter of Indra's Head had been successfully resolved, Uchiha Gin immediately put on a look of deep grief and kept shaking his head and sighing towards Uchiha Madara.

Uchiha Gin has no psychological burden at all for putting the blame on the stone tablet~
"I'll throw that thing away when I get back to prevent future troubles!"

"Wait, if you don't want it, why don't you give it to me for research?"

Senju Tobirama, who had become more interested in the Uchiha clan's ancestral stone tablet, put forward his request to Uchiha Madara in a rare negotiating tone.
"Humph, even if I crush it up and soak it in water to drink, I won't give it to you."

Um. No need to worry. I'm afraid you'll get hurt.
"He is born evil indeed. Ah!"

Unexpectedly, his humble words were met with deep contempt. A red light flashed in Senju Tobirama's eyes, and he was about to blurt out a classic quote. Fortunately, Senju Hashirama, who was standing by, was quick-witted and gave his brother an elbow, preventing his next uncivilized quote from being aborted.
"Alright, alright~ Tobirama, Madara is still seriously injured, so you better stop talking!"

"Madara, don't take it personally with Tobirama. He's been under a lot of work pressure lately, so it's normal for him to be a little bit mad." "Hmm"

Covering his aching ribs, Senju Tobirama gritted his teeth with cold sweat on his face. The sadness in his heart far exceeded the pain in his body. Looking at the three black-haired people talking and laughing, he felt like an outsider at this moment.

"Well, in that case, I'll go back first. I have to go to work later."

Senju Tobirama looked at the pale sky outside the window, let out a long sigh, stood up, turned around and left.

After the only heterochromatic element left, Hashirama Senju asked Uchiha Madara with a serious expression,

"Madala, what are your plans after you come back?"

"I want to apologize to everyone in the family first."

Uchiha Madara's expression darkened when he heard this. He had resolutely left the village that year, which made the Uchiha clan members extremely disappointed. Now that he had returned from his mission, he had to apologize to the elders and villagers in the clan.

"Well, I will announce your return today to clear up the misunderstandings that everyone has had about you over the years."

Although the top leaders had not yet made a final decision on Uchiha Madara's departure from Konoha, everyone tacitly acknowledged the fact that he had defected.

But what is strange is that the ninjas of Konoha still communicate with the Uchiha clan in a friendly manner as always, as if there is no negative impact caused by Uchiha Madara's departure.

Haha, after all, someone has a stack of IOUs in his hand and can eat up these ninjas in Boruto: Naruto Next Generations.

"Ha~ It's getting late, you two can chat first, I'm going to go back and catch up on some sleep, and then I'll bring Izuna to see you tomorrow."

After being tormented by these two guys for a whole night, Uchiha Gin didn't sleep a wink. All he wanted now was to go back home, wrap himself in the banshee veil, and have a good sleep.

"Brother Yin, take care~"

The two of them had long wanted to have some alone time to talk, and they were hoping that Uchiha Gin, the light bulb, would leave as soon as possible.

the next day.

Uchiha Gin, who was playing with the white-haired lady in his dream, had just grabbed her hand and was ready to taste it carefully, but when he looked up, he saw a pair of eyes full of ridicule.

The next moment, the white and tender hand had quietly pressed against his lower abdomen.
A huge force enters the body,

"Oh!"

"puff!!!"

Uchiha Gin, who was hit hard in the abdomen, felt that his intestines were about to be squeezed out of his anus. He immediately spit out a mouthful of blood in pain and opened his eyes tremblingly.

"Curly Baboon! Sleep on Lemon Ice, get up and have dinner!"

I saw Senju Itama, wearing a small apron, sitting on her belly, with her black and white hair tied into two ponytails, and her puffy little face full of surprise.

"Hurry up and get up. Your cousin will be discharged from the hospital soon."

The chubby little legs in zebra-patterned knee-high socks rhythmically slapped Uchiha Gin's waist, but it didn't make him feel the slightest bit of lust.
Even though Senju Itama used the power of the Yin Seal to transform herself into a little loli like Kanna, according to the law of conservation of energy, her strange strength was not reduced by the reduction in size, so this seemingly welfare-like massage of her little fleshy legs was actually a fatal blow that could break bones and tendons.

"You! You get down here!"

Uchiha Gin felt cracks appearing in his ribs, so he endured the pain and reached his hand under Senju Itama's armpit, picked it up and threw it out.

"Ouch~ What are you doing!"

Senju Itama did a 360-degree turn in the air, and after landing safely, he let out a sharp cry, and his chubby little face puffed up like a bun.

"Is it that late already?"

Uchiha Gin, whose sweet dream was interrupted, ignored the instigator and turned his gaze to the window. He found that the sun was already setting in the west of the mountain. More than twelve hours had passed since he returned from the hospital.

"Hehe~ You missed the fun!"

Seeing that Uchiha Gin ignored her, Senju Itama, with a pouting mouth, came over again, with her arms folded across her chest, and spoke in a very proud tone.

"Oh~ what's the show?"

"The Grand Hokage announced in front of the entire village this morning that your cousin left to carry out an extremely difficult secret mission. Now that he has successfully completed his mission and returned, he has officially become the Hokage's assistant."

Uchiha Gin raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He didn't expect that Hashirama was so quick in getting his cousin off the ground. Not only did he clear his cousin's name in public, he also made him a regular employee with a position but no salary.

You have to know that before, when Uchiha Madara was helping Senju Hashirama, he was working illegally for a fee. He only had the title of a candidate, but there was no official certification. The title of Hokage candidate was just something everyone called him in private.

"Hokage's assistant?"

At the same time, after being baptized by the heavy bombshell during the day, the residents all talked about Uchiha Madara during their leisure time, and praised the new Hokage's excellent character of endurance, hardship and willingness to take the lead.

In a relatively secret pub,

The Ninja Alliance, headed by Sarutobi Sasuke, was quietly holding a small meeting. Shimura Kenichi, who was much more plump than in previous years, said with lingering fear,
"Fortunately, I listened to you, Sasuke, and didn't make enemies with the Uchiha clan, otherwise I would be in trouble in the future."

"Kenichi, save your breath. You see Uchiha Gin doesn't even dare to fart, so why do you want to make enemies?"

Yama Minako, who had already had a few drinks alone, had a few blushes on her increasingly charming face. When she heard what Shimura Kenichi said, she almost laughed out loud.
"Who said I don't dare to let go? Believe it or not, I will do it now!"

"Forehead"

Everyone present moved their butts tacitly, away from the furious Kenichi Shimura, worried that he would fail to hold on and hurt innocent people.

"All in all, it's a good thing that Uchiha Madara has returned."

Sarutobi Sasuke, who was sitting at the first seat, had a thoughtful look on his face. No matter what the reason was for Uchiha Madara's leaving, as long as he could come back, it would be a great thing for Konoha.

Such top-level combat power, even if only on paper, will make surrounding countries wary.

"Ah~ It's so enviable to have the Hokage assist me!"

Everyone nodded when they heard this. After all, it was nice to stay under a big tree for shade. Small ninja clans like them still had to rely on Konoha for development. However, when they thought of the position of assistant Hokage appointed by Hashirama Senju during the day, they couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

Yama Minako's tipsy eyes were dazed. Although she had aspirations for the position of Hokage, she was still very self-aware.
"It seems that Uchiha Madara is almost certain to take over the second generation's target location~"

The Nara clan leader with a pineapple-like hairstyle moved the wine glass in front of him, looking a little dejected.

"What do you mean by sure thing? Uchiha Madara is now just one bamboo hat away from becoming the Hokage." (End of this chapter)
