Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.
Chapter 605 Even if I die, you won't become a daimyo.
A dazed and confused Uchiha Lucha was pulled into the main hall by the "already cold corpse" Uchiha Jiro. Still recovering from the shock, he raised his head and looked at the portly old man on the high seat in the hall. His cloudy eyes suddenly narrowed.
"Lu Cha, it's been a long time."
Uchiha Tajima stood up and greeted him with a smile.
"Am I really not dreaming?"
Having worked as a prison guard for many years, Uchiha Ryōzashi had developed a keen eye for recognizing people. He could instantly identify someone's true identity by observing facial details.
thump!
Uchiha Lucha immediately collapsed to his knees, bowing deeply to the portly old man seated high on the throne—Uchiha Tajima, who had been dead for many years.
"Get up, you've worked hard all these years."
"Old clan leader, haven't you been dead for decades?"
He personally witnessed Uchiha Tajima die from his severe injuries in the hospital, and he led his men to dig the grave overnight.
“It’s a long story.”
Uchiha Tajima wasn't in a hurry to explain his resurrection to Uchiha Ryōza. Instead, he turned his gaze to Uchiha Gin, who had just entered. Seeing Gin rubbing his stomach and looking around, Tajima smiled and gave an order to his subordinates.
"That's it for now, let's eat first."
The scene shifts to a lavish dining room where a huge long table is laden with all sorts of delicacies and fine wines.
Uchiha Ryuzaki sat down somewhat awkwardly, while Uchiha Gin, on the contrary, not only sat imposingly in the area closest to the desserts, but also kept urging the waitresses to hurry up with the food, as his stomach was already growling with hunger.
"Ah Yin, wait a minute, not everyone has arrived yet."
Seated at the head of the table, Uchiha Tajima gestured for him to wait a moment, but Uchiha Gin's brain was already under the influence of sugar, and he was already happily munching on the food with both hands.
"Erlang, are you really Erlang?"
The delicious food was less appealing to Uchiha Ryōzai than the Uchiha Jirō who was standing guard nearby.
"Hehe, Brother Lü Cha, it's me."
When asked, Uchiha Jiro grinned, his sleazy aura unmistakable. That very quality alone was something no one in the entire ninja world could imitate.
"You're not dead, and the old patriarch isn't dead either, so doesn't that mean..."
As his gaze shifted between Uchiha Jiro and Uchiha Tajima, and his mind gradually calmed down, a terrifying thought suddenly occurred to Uchiha Ryuzaki. He then asked, trembling,
"That's right. Of the clansmen who 'died' during missions over the years, apart from a very few unlucky ones, the rest basically faked their deaths to escape."
Uchiha Jiro nodded and answered Uchiha Ryōza's question.
"Just being alive is good enough."
Upon hearing that so many of his clansmen who had perished in battle over the years were still alive, tears welled up in Uchiha Roza's eyes. The heavy weight that had been pressing on his heart for so many years finally lifted, and he felt an immense sense of relief.
After a long while, he wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and began to openly look around. Looking at the incredibly luxurious interior of the room, his doubts reached their peak.
This place is even more luxurious than the one he saw in the Daimyo's mansion in the Land of Fire. What kind of place is this?
"Erlang, which noble family are you serving now?"
The narrow-mindedness of the ninja limited Uchiha Roza's imagination; he naively assumed that his clansmen, who had faked their deaths to escape, had now submitted to some powerful noble family and were making a living from it.
"Pfft~"
Uchiha Jiro almost burst out laughing upon hearing this. Looking at the cautious Uchiha Ryuzaki, he turned around, gave a thumbs-up, and proudly pointed to the pattern on the back of his clothes.
"We are now only serving ourselves."
"This is."
The pattern on Jiro's back looked very familiar. Uchiha Roza paused for a second, then quickly pulled something out of his pocket—the scroll he had been using to choose a birthday present for his granddaughter, Mikoto.
The pattern adorning the scroll perfectly matched the pattern on Uchiha Jiro's back, causing Uchiha Ryōzashi's pupils to freeze for a moment, his face filled with disbelief.
"Could this be the Bo?"
Snapped--
"Dad, I'm back! Oh? Big cousin, what brings you here?"
Just as Uchiha Lucha was about to guess the correct answer, an arrogant voice rang out from outside the hall, followed by a handsome, greasy middle-aged man dressed in a magnificent noble robe and with an exquisitely styled haircut, who pushed open the door and entered.
"Lord Izuna?"
The scroll slipped from his hand and fell to the ground. Uchiha Ryōzashi stared wide-eyed at Uchiha Izuna, who looked more like a nobleman than a ninja, his voice almost distorted with surprise.
"Uh, it's Lü Cha. You died and logged off too?"
Having just enjoyed a few days of aristocratic life, Uchiha Izuna looked at his old acquaintance with a bit of embarrassment, scratched his head awkwardly, and then asked,
“Mu, so don’t catch him, he’s lazy.”
With his mouth full of pastries, Uchiha Gin raised his hand and blurted out a question.
"Has something happened in the family?"
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Izuna frowned. Uchiha Ryuzaki was an elder he had personally appointed as the head of the clan; if it weren't for internal problems within the clan, Uchiha Gin would never have brought him to the Land of Waves.
"Gulp~ Whew. It's nothing major. It's just that kid Setsuna recognized a monkey as his father, created a new Uchiha in Konoha, and incidentally kicked Lu Cha out of prison."
After gulping down a glass of sweet water, Uchiha Gin let out a long sigh of relief and shook his head with a look of enjoyment. He then summarized the current situation of the Konoha Uchiha clan in one sentence.
"I never imagined that Liu Ying, with her thick eyebrows and big eyes, would give birth to such a despicable child."
Putting aside the minor detail of the other party's defection to Hiruzen Sarutobi, just the fact that Setsuna Uchiha instigated internal strife was enough to make Tajima Uchiha want to kill him.
If it weren't for the bond he shared with his former trusted lieutenant, he would already be heading to Konoha with his sword drawn.
"Big brother, take me back. I want to finish off that traitor myself."
Uchiha Izuna was also furious. Uchiha Setsuna's actions showed that he, as the vice-clan head, was completely disregarded.
He just left, he didn't die.
"Garlic birds, garlic birds, none of them are wearing swimsuits~"
Uchiha Gin, who was enjoying a sumptuous meal, shook his head.
He knew very well that while Uchiha Setsuna's actions were partly driven by personal motives, they also stemmed from a desire to uphold the honor of the Uchiha clan; otherwise, so many clansmen wouldn't have responded so readily.
The younger members of the tribe value honor and yearn for merit.
Urban management officers are always patrolling with smelly feet until they die; only by surviving the battlefield can they have hope of moving up in the world.
"We can't just let this go like this, can we?"
Uchiha Izuna plopped down next to Uchiha Gin, arms crossed, looking utterly furious.
"He said he wanted to create a new Uchiha clan, but he didn't actually do it. He just wanted to be the Grand Elder, not the clan leader."
Reaching out, he pushed his half-eaten pastry towards her, Uchiha Gin calmly offering words of comfort. Uchiha Setsuna still held the clan head's lineage in high esteem; otherwise, given his current approval rating, he would have already established his own faction.
"He dares?!"
Looking at the cake base in front of him, which had not a single speck of cream, Uchiha Izuna coldly shouted,
"Um... I have a few more questions."
Just as the two brothers were talking, Uchiha Ryōzashi, startled by the sudden appearance of Uchiha Izuna, raised his hand.
"Is this really the Land of Waves?"
"That's right, this is the Land of Waves. 'Wave' is the 'wave' of Uchiha." Uchiha Tajima, seated in the main seat, nodded, casually adjusting his extravagantly decorated attire, and introduced himself with great seriousness.
"And I am the current daimyo of the Land of Waves."
"I'm the prospective daimyo~"
Uchiha Izuna immediately sat up straight, fiddled with his slicked-back hair, and said with an arrogant expression,
"You little brat, get out of here! Wealth is the one I've handpicked to be the next great name!"
"Dad, I'm your real son!"
"Haven't you heard of the special bond between grandparents and grandchildren? Even if I die, you'll never become a daimyo!"
"Lord Yin, is all of this real? Or is it just an illusion you concocted to put my mind at ease?"
Even now, Uchiha Ryōzashi still felt that everything before him was utterly unreal.
The dead members of their clan were brought back to life and lived a life of luxury.
The Uchiha now have their own country, no longer dependent on others, no longer at the mercy of others, and they wield their kunai only for themselves.
"We're all brothers, why would I lie to you? Eat up, we have a lot of old friends to see later~"
Seeing Uchiha Ryuzaki's eyes brimming with tears, Uchiha Gin chuckled and shared his dessert with his old friend.
His gaze fell upon the sweet, cloying aroma of the pastries before him, and Uchiha Lucha's eyes welled with even more tears.
"Thank you, but I have diabetes."
This meal, which served as a welcome feast for Uchiha Lucha, lasted a very long time.
Afterwards, Uchiha Jiro volunteered to be the tour guide, leading the eagerly anticipating Uchiha Ryōzai on a journey to explore the Uchiha nation.
After the two left, it was finally time for the family to have a talk.
"Gintoki, any news about Madara?"
If Uchiha Tajima still has any regrets, it would undoubtedly be his missing eldest son, Uchiha Madara.
Over the years, he had expended considerable manpower and resources searching for his son, all to no avail. If it weren't for Uchiha Gin's guarantee, he would have already erected a cenotaph for Uchiha Madara in the Land of Waves.
"There are some."
Uchiha Gin nodded and recounted in detail how Uchiha Madara had wandered the world with Black Zetsu.
"Is he still out partying? Is the outside world that attractive?"
When Uchiha Tajima heard that his eldest son was not only unharmed, but was also wandering around with a little follower, not returning to the village or caring about the clan, he was furious.
“Alas! A man’s ambition lies in all corners of the world. This small temple of Konoha cannot contain my cousin, who is a great Susanoo.”
It's said that dog owners know their dogs' temperaments best, and Uchiha Gin, having trained his older cousin for so many years, naturally understands his inner thoughts perfectly.
Madara Uchiha was never one to settle for the status quo. If he were to become Hokage in the village, he would eventually go crazy from boredom.
Of course, this does not mean that Madara Uchiha does not care about the village. He is now wandering the ninja world, protecting Konoha in his own way.
At this point, I have to tag a certain greasy-haired guy who's never home.
"Is my brother in any danger? That Jigen is a man that even Hashirama Senju couldn't contend with."
My younger cousin is wrong about one thing: Cixian is not necessarily a man now, but of course, she is definitely not a woman either.
"As far as I know, he has obtained the Decade Brother's legacy equipment and successfully promoted to the second generation of Decade Brother. His strength has only increased compared to before."
Uchiha Gin still didn't reveal the identity of his disguise, only telling Izuna and the other two that his cousin was now incredibly awesome!
"Wow! ∑(OoO) Really...really!?"
Uchiha Izuna asked in surprise, his wide eyes filled with envy.
That's Kamen Rider Decade!
"Hmph! Ah Yin, if you ever run into that brat again, be sure to bring him to see me."
My uncle doesn't care about any of that "Decade Rider" stuff; all he wants to see right now is his beloved eldest son.
"I tried my best. You know my cousin's temper; it would take ten tailed beasts to bring him back."
Uchiha Gin spread his hands, looking helpless. His younger cousin wasn't even going back to the village. To put it bluntly, he was prepared to fight Jigen to the death. Unless this cancer was eradicated, he would never go home.
"Big cousin, now that you've brought Lü Cha here, are you planning to completely abandon those clansmen in Konoha?"
Ultimately, Uchiha Izuna couldn't let go of his Konoha clan. No matter how wicked their personalities were, they couldn't overshadow the bond of blood.
"How could that be? My obedience has always been to never abandon or give up on anyone."
Shaking his head with an air of seriousness, Uchiha Gin replied righteously,
As the saying goes, you can't persuade a dying person with kind words. If these clansmen give up on treatment themselves, there's nothing he can do.
"Ah Yin, what's your opinion on this war?"
What else can you watch it? Just sit and watch it!
"It won't last long."
Uchiha Gin curled his lip.
"how you said that?"
"First, let's talk about the Land of Water. The Third Mizukage is seriously injured, no, I should say he's on his last breath. Once the commander-in-chief is dead, Kirigakure will retreat."
If it weren't for the fact that Uchiha Silver Curse Katsura died young, and given that Shukaku's gossipy information is always accurate, Katsura probably wouldn't last more than a few days.
Once he dies, Kirigakure will inevitably descend into chaos, leaving them with no will to fight. Therefore, Kirigakure is the biggest weakness of the Lightning, Earth, and Water Alliance.
"Furthermore, regarding the Land of Lightning, the commander-in-chief is only a reserve Kage with limited power. If the Land of Fire cannot be conquered in a short time, there will definitely be other voices within the Hidden Cloud Village."
Although Nozomi is undoubtedly the Fourth Raikage, there may be others within Kumogakure who covet the position. If he suffers a defeat in battle or fails to perform his duties, there will naturally be people stirring up trouble.
Uchiha Gin's voice abruptly stopped, and Uchiha Tajima, waiting for what he would say next, asked in confusion,
"Continue, is that all? Isn't there still Iwagakure?"
"Wait a minute, glug~"
Uchiha Gin took a sip of water, then continued with a disdainful expression.
"Onoki has a hidden injury to his kidneys and should not fight for long."
The village of Iwagakure was united, but Onoki was useless. With half of his kidney missing, he was at a great disadvantage in a protracted battle. He often ejaculated after only a few rounds, and sometimes he would become weak as soon as he got going, making him unusable.
"So, if Konoha can hold on, victory is just around the corner!"
After listening to Uchiha Gin's analysis, Uchiha Izuna's eyes lit up. He had said that if the situation in Konoha wasn't optimistic, he would personally go to help Kagami, but now it seemed that he didn't need to intervene.
Uchiha Gin rolled his eyes. "You make it sound so easy," he thought. "Do you even know how much of this little monkey's wealth is left?"
"But we still have to hold on. Can you calculate for me what 3000 - 1055 equals?" (End of Chapter)
