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

Chapter 88 Please Stop Reminiscing
"Little ghost, I'm going to be out for a few days on a mission, don't run around."

After finishing his breakfast, Uchiha Gin picked up his bag and said to Senju Itama who was still eating,
"If you really run into any trouble, go find Izunai. I'll talk to him."

"I know. I'm not a child anymore. Stop talking nonsense and go."

Seeing Uchiha Gin looking hesitant, Senju Itama, who was eating, raised his head, rolled his eyes at him and urged him.

"When in doubt, saving your life is the most important thing. Take this, just in case."

Still a little worried, Uchiha Gin took out a golden hourglass-shaped pendant from his bag and handed it to Senju Itama, asking him to wear it.

"Okay, okay, you're so long-winded."

After receiving this peculiar pendant, he could see the golden sand slowly flowing in the hourglass. Senju Itama felt that this thing was very precious and should be worth a lot of money.

"Gold?"

"This thing is for saving your life, don't even think about exchanging it for money."

For the safety of the little ghost, Uchiha Gin took great pains and even gave the only Zhongya hourglass in stock to this guy to save his life.

[Zhonya's Hourglass]: Invincible for three minutes when HP is less than 40% (can be triggered once a day).

After settling down, Uchiha Gin rode as fast as he could to the meeting place he had agreed with Uchiha Tajima. He saw his cousin waiting there from a distance, and he hurried forward to greet him even though he was late.

"Uncle, I'm sorry, something delayed me."

"It's okay, I just arrived too, you guys..."

Hearing Uchiha Gin's voice, Uchiha Tajima, who had closed his eyes to rest, opened his eyes and said half a sentence, but he was shocked by Uchiha Gin's appearance and was speechless.
"Your look is a bit exaggerated."

Uchiha Tajima commented with a strange look in his eyes,
"Hey, that's good, I'll make you a set later."

Patting the Berserker's armor on his body, Uchiha Gin recommended it to Uchiha Tajima with a proud look on his face.

"Haha, that's not necessary."

Uchiha Tajima was moved but refused. If he went out dressed like that, it would bring shame to the Uchiha clan.

"Now that we are ready, let's go!"

Uchiha Tajima led the way, and Uchiha Gin followed closely behind him. The two of them rode non-stop from day to night. When they passed a forest, Uchiha Tajima slowed down and signaled to stop.

They chose a secluded corner in the forest and began to rest.
"The sealed place is still some distance from here. We will set up camp here tonight."

Uchiha Tajima, who already knew the route by heart, told Uchiha Gin,
"At this rate, we'll reach our destination tomorrow."

After saying that, he took out two pieces of dry food from his backpack, ready to relieve the hunger in his stomach.

"Let's eat first! I've prepared a lot of good things."

Uchiha Gin, who had finally gone out on a mission, was well prepared. He took out various fresh ingredients from his backpack one after another, and finally even took out a big pot.

"You kid, do you think you're here for a picnic? Go back and copy the three ninja prohibitions for me ten thousand times!"

Looking at the excited Uchiha Gin with a dark face, Uchiha Tajima held his forehead and said with gritted teeth.

"Huh?" Isn't it?

Uchiha Ginka didn't say this aloud, otherwise he would be scolded by his cousin again.

"Then I'll put it away. It's a pity to waste these things. I spent a lot of money to buy them."

He picked up the ingredients on the ground with some disappointment, and looked up to see Uchiha Tajima looking at the iron pot he took out with curiosity.

“What is this pot for?”

After studying it for a long time, I still couldn't figure out what this strangely shaped pot was used for.

"This one, I made it specifically for hot pot."

Uchiha Gin picked up the shabu-shabu pot he had customized on the ground and explained it to Uchiha Tajima.

"So this is the hot pot that Izuna mentioned." After listening to the explanation, Uchiha Tajima nodded thoughtfully. He had heard Izuna and Madara mention this thing many times, and every time they mentioned it, Izuna would wipe the saliva from the corner of his mouth.

"How about trying it?"

Seeing that his cousin was somewhat interested, Uchiha Gin asked tentatively, and then he mysteriously took out a dark red object with a strange smell from his backpack.
"The secret spicy butter base I brought this time is definitely strong enough!"

"Humph!"

Hearing Uchiha Gin's words, Uchiha Tajima stared at him seriously with his sharp eyes. His righteous gaze made him feel a little ashamed.

Yes, how can one be so extravagant when going out on a mission? Indulging in pleasure is a taboo for ninjas. My cousin must be very conscious, otherwise how could he become the clan leader?

"It's a bit cold at night, so I need to eat something spicy to drive away the cold."

Just as Uchiha Gin was about to take back the hot pot, Uchiha Tajima nodded seriously and said,

"What are you standing there for? Go get ready."

No wonder he can become the clan leader, his way of doing things is different.

Uchiha Gin happily took the hot pot and began to prepare a hot pot dinner outdoors.

"Huh~Huh~, no wonder even Izuna, who is always picky about food, praises this thing so much, it turns out to have such a rich flavor."

Uchiha Tajima was eating hot pot for the first time and was choking on the spiciness. He showed off his food and made comments at the same time.

“What’s in this pot?”

Feeling the heat in his mouth, Uchiha Tajima was surprised to find that his own chakra was also a little restless.

"Hey, good stuff."

This time, Uchiha Gin mixed the birthday gift that his little cousin Izuna gave him into the base material. That package was said to be a secret medicine from the Akimichi clan.

The only person who eats this highly nutritious food is Uchiha Tajima, who never says a word. He would never be willing to take it out by other people.

The two of them were eating enthusiastically up there, but Wangliang down below was suffering terribly.

"Why are these two guys still eating? This smell..."

Wangliang, who was lurking underground, swallowed his saliva. The stimulating and overbearing aroma of the hot pot caused his taste buds, which had not been used for thousands of years, to start secreting liquid. One could not help but sigh that the power of hot pot was so terrifying.

After eating and drinking, it’s time to talk.

At this moment, Uchiha Gin was holding the empty hot pot with a look of confusion in his eyes. However, this scene had other meanings in the eyes of Uchiha Tajima.

He turned his eyes slightly, looked at Uchiha Gin who was holding the pot and was hesitant to speak, and slowly spoke,
"Ayin, do you have something to tell me?"

No, don't get me wrong, I'm just worried about whether you can get up and travel tomorrow.

Uchiha Tajima is worthy of being a ninja of the older generation. Adhering to the principle of not wasting, he actually drank all the hot pot soup base in one breath. Uchiha Gin, who knew the power of hot pot well, was a little worried whether his eyes could bear it. He wanted to remind him but didn't know how to say it.

"Well... now that your body has returned to normal, there are some things I should confess to you."

Looking at Uchiha Gin's conflicted expression, Uchiha Tajima sighed, guessing that the seal of his memory had loosened.

???

Why did the atmosphere suddenly become so heavy?
Uchiha Gin looked at his cousin suspiciously. Could it be that the original owner had some shocking secret?

"It all started on that night twelve years ago..."

Stop, it's too long and I really don't want to listen to it. Can you just tell me the result directly? Otherwise, with someone's writing skills, he can write ten chapters just on your paragraph.

Uchiha Gin looked at Uchiha Tajima who was caught in a whirlpool of memories with some sourness in his eyes.

"Please don't recall the killing anymore!"
