Naruto: Uchiha is not Raikage!

Chapter 187 Fugaku asks Mikoto to find Seiji

Peaceful times always pass quickly, and in the blink of an eye another period of time has passed.

Qingsi is constantly refining and organizing what he has learned, and when he has extra time, he will go to his exclusive laboratory to study the power of monsters.

During this period, Sarutobi Hiruzen found him and asked him to join the Anbu, and gave Seiji the Anbu combat uniform and the Anbu-matching samurai sword.

Qingsi declined, saying that he had to wait for Fugaku to return and let the clan leader make the decision.

Sarutobi Hiruzen agreed to Seiji's request, but did not take back the equipment.

The days fell into dullness again.

This was not only the case within the village, the battle situation outside the village seemed to be becoming increasingly stable, with the battle lines shrinking and becoming more coherent.

Everyone knew this was the calm before the storm.

The Ninja World War will never end so abruptly. Once it starts, even the militant factions will not be able to stop it. The new hatred bred by the war will drive people to continue attacking.

Until it reaches the limit that each country can bear, either the country will be destroyed or a ceasefire will be reached.

The streets of the Uchiha settlement looked much more desolate.

Fallen leaves were flying on the ground, and occasionally a few tribesmen passed by the street, all in a hurry.

Recently, the suppression of Uchiha has intensified.

Even the Uchiha clan knew the reason, it seemed that the clan leader was hiding his strength.

Some veterans speculated that it was the Mangeka Sharingan, but unfortunately the information sent back by Fugaku has always denied this.

"A secret meeting is being held today."

Fugaku returned to Konoha exhausted, with a few more wrinkles on his face.

"Captain Fugaku, why don't you take a day off first?"

The eighth generation of Uchiha was stunned.

They had been fighting outside for so long, and now they had to attend a secret meeting as soon as they came back today.

"No, that's it."

Fugaku shook his head.

The most urgent thing for him is to appease his tribesmen. If this continues for a long time, there will be complaints against him within the tribe.

The secret of the Sharingan must never be revealed.

Once it is revealed, the Uchiha will be feared and their weaknesses will be discovered through investigation.

The Mangekyō Sharingan is powerful, but it is ultimately a double-edged sword. Under high-intensity load, it can cause complete blindness in just over ten days.

The ultimate trump card is the one hidden in your hand.

"Yes."

The eighth Uchiha nodded and immediately went out to make arrangements.

"Yaowei, I heard that Qingsi has been relied on by the village recently. Did the third generation even give Qingsi the uniforms of the Anbu?"

Fugaku turned and looked at the Uchiha Yaowei beside him.

Qingsi is more valued by the village than he thought.

Since the founding of the village, no Uchiha has ever joined the Anbu.

The only Uchiha Kagami who joined was the Hokage guard.

"Yes, Lord Fugaku, but Seiji hasn't agreed yet and seems to be waiting for your decision."

Uchiha medicine taste.

I am satisfied with Qingsi's approach.

No matter how good the village is to Seiji, he is still an Uchiha.

First the Uchiha, then Seiji!
"This is an opportunity."

Fugaku muttered to himself.

The Anbu is directly under the Hokage and only obeys the Hokage's orders. No other department is qualified to give orders.

Even the root of that man Danzo Shimura belongs to the big category of Anbu.

"Fugaku, you're back?"

Mikoto received the news that Fugaku had returned and hurried to visit him.

"Ah."

"Fugaku, you've... aged a lot."

Mikoto was surprised to find two new wrinkles on Fugaku's face, which looked like tear troughs and nasolabial folds.

I don't know if it's because of the long years of war, the overall concern for the future of the Uchiha clan, or the recent slander against Fugaku by the village.

Some civilians also knew that Fugaku was hiding his strength, making those heroes who died a laughing stock.

There must be someone behind this.

But Mikoto didn't know who it was.

She was like a small boat swaying on the sea, unable to see the whole picture.

"It does not matter."

Fugaku briefly changed the topic of whether he was old or not and asked:
"The third generation values Qingsi very much. How is the bond between Qingsi and the clan?" Fugaku said.

The bond of a clan is an abstract concept, but in practice it means a deep relationship with certain people.

"A few, but not much."

Mikoto thought for a moment and said.

Apart from her, Seiji had only come into contact with a handful of Uchiha.

And there is also the Uchiha who dislikes Seiji.

For example, Uchiha Obito, who is in the same class as Seiji, seems to be at odds with Seiji.

Mikoto was not very clear about the specific reason, but she guessed it was because of the little girl Nohara Rin.

Fortunately, the two of them never had any conflicts and rarely had any quarrels.

"Is there any girl in the tribe that he likes?"

Fugaku said again.

Qingsi is a little older than his peers and was also a transfer student to the ninja school.

It was old enough to legally get married during the Warring States Period.

This custom has not changed within many ninja clans.

Hearing this, a trace of unnatural embarrassment flashed across Mikoto's face.

Fugaku's insight caught this and he questioned Mikoto again.

"Yes, yes, but..."

Mikoto was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to say it.

"This is a major event for the clan. Only by marrying within the clan and raising the next generation can Seiji be considered fully integrated into the Uchiha family."

Fugaku's tone became slightly more serious.

Mikoto thought about how much Fugaku had worked for the clan, hesitated for a moment, and then said:

"He said it was me."

Fugaku frowned and froze for a moment.

Then I felt that maybe Mikoto was the first gentle older sister that Qingsi came into contact with, so it was normal to miss her a little.

She is of marriageable age, but she is still a child after all.

"In that case, you should interact with him more and let him see more women of the same age in the tribe."

Fugaku said, "I'll leave this matter to you, Mikoto."

"Okay, Fugaku."

Mikoto sighed inwardly.

Having said that, she had no choice but to continue.

It was okay at the beginning when she was not familiar with Kiyoshi, but after getting to know Kiyoshi, Mikoto always felt that she was approaching Kiyoshi with a purpose.

Hearing Mikoto agree, Fugaku felt a warm feeling in his heart.

Every time he gave her an order, Mikoto would complete it quickly.

If the war had not suddenly broken out, the two might have already tied the knot.

"After this war is over, I will definitely make you happy, Mikoto."

Fugaku thought so in his heart.

…………

"95%."

Qingsi looked at the progress of the entry.

I will be able to comprehend [Medical Jonin (Purple)] tomorrow.

He closed the entry panel, replaced the tea bricks in the kitchen to make tea, and brought the tea out.

Not only was he home today, but he also had a guest.

"Qingsi, this month's living expenses."
