Naruto: I've already fought against all five Kage, and the system only just arrived.

Not far away, Naruto, who was fighting Sasuke, heard Captain Yamato's loud voice and first looked at Sasuke in front of him in surprise, thinking that the Sharingan was right here.

Then, seeing that Sasuke didn't make another move, but instead looked at Captain Yamato with a rare change in expression.

Naruto then took a look.

Then he saw those two incredibly familiar Sharingan eyes.

"The same eyes as Sasuke and Kakashi-sensei! Those are Sharingan!"

"But, isn't the Uchiha clan supposed to no longer exist? How come these people also have Sharingan?"

Naruto, who cares deeply about Sasuke, is not entirely ignorant about the Uchiha clan massacre.

On the contrary, it was precisely because he knew so much that he raised the same question as Captain Yamato.

Meanwhile, Sakura, who had just recovered and was treating Sai's injuries, noticed this scene. Instead of paying attention to the two people, she noticed Sasuke immediately with her girlish sensitivity.

When she saw the sudden change in expression on Sasuke's previously calm face, she seemed to understand why Sasuke didn't want to return to the village.

The originally fierce battlefield suddenly quieted down because of the words "Sharingan".

He was met with Yamato's bewildered and surprised question.

Uchiha grinned: "Why do you have the Sharingan? That's the funniest joke I've heard all day."

"If outsiders can possess the Sharingan, why can't members of the Uchiha clan also possess the Sharingan?"

Yamato was well aware that Uchiha people could awaken the Sharingan.

However, the Uchiha clan has already been wiped out. How could there be any other Uchiha members alive besides Sasuke?

No, there was one before.

The man who accompanied Sasuke during the Battle of Mount Katsuragi at the Fire Temple.

Thinking of this, Yamato carefully examined the two Uchiha ninjas, a man and a woman, in front of him. They seemed somewhat familiar, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

He couldn't help but ask again, "Are you members of the Uchiha clan of Konoha?"

"Konoha."

Uchiha Jun chuckled, and after receiving a nod of approval from Hagoromo Kei, he smirked and introduced himself:

"Uchiha Zhen".

Uchiha Izumi calmly followed up:

"Uchiha Izumi."

Upon hearing this, Yamato's expression changed slightly.

He had little recollection of Uchiha Jun.

As for Uchiha Izumi, because Uchiha Itachi had once joined the Anbu and served in Kakashi's team, he had come into contact with him and had seen Uchiha Itachi and another Uchiha girl together once or twice after get off work.

If I remember correctly, the Uchiha girl's name should be Uchiha Izumi.

Could this woman in front of me be...?

"So, today's battle is an internal war within Konoha?" At this moment, Kurotsuchi, who had just woken up, finally couldn't help but complain.

She didn't know the inside story of the Uchiha clan's massacre, but the enemies in front of her were all Uchiha.

As is widely known, the Uchiha clan is a member of Konoha.

Heitu really wanted to ask what kind of battle was being fought today.

Overwhelmed by the sheer volume of information, Yamato, who felt the deeper the secrets were revealed, snapped out of his daze and took a deep breath.

Although the chances were slim, he still spoke, clinging to a sliver of possibility:

"Although we don't know what happened in the past, the Uchiha and Konoha are one. If you wish, you can return to Konoha."

Chapter 158 Nine-Tails: The Uchiha, Born Evil!

"Heh, this is kidnapping someone right under my nose."

Hagoromo Kei, the only non-Uchiha member in the same camp, chuckled and crossed his arms when he heard Yamato say that.

Across from him, Akatsuchi, who was trying his best to avoid meeting Hagoromo Kei's gaze, asked in a low voice:

Are you also from the Uchiha clan?

"I'm not."

Without a second thought, Yuki Kei, who was proud of his "feathered robes," denied it outright.

"That's good." Akatsuchi breathed a sigh of relief.

He is very uncomfortable speaking without making eye contact with the other person, as it seems very impolite.

On the other side, upon hearing what Hagoromo said, Uchiha Jun, whose wife was the other party's sister, quickly expressed his opinion:

"Captain, you know how I feel."

Yu Yiqing glanced at him and nodded casually.

After all, who would have thought that Uchiha Jun, who appeared so arrogant on the outside, was actually henpecked?

betray?

Something that cannot exist.

After listening to the conversation between Hagoromo Kei and Uchiha Jun, Yamato quickly pondered in his mind:

'This person isn't from the Uchiha clan; he's probably a ninja from Shinobu. But for the Uchiha to willingly call him captain, he must be incredibly strong. A small ninja village shouldn't produce someone like this. Unless he's from the Hagoromo clan!'

As the leader of this mission, Yamato possessed a considerable amount of intelligence about Kasamae Village gathered by the joint intelligence agencies.

One of the most important ones.

The Hagoromo clan, once on par with the Senju and Uchiha clans, mysteriously disappeared from the ninja world long ago, and some speculate that they settled in Kusamae Village.

Now it seems highly likely to be true.

Furthermore, judging from Uchiha Jun's attitude towards Hagoromo Kei, it seems impossible for his proposal to be realized.

Yamato sighed inwardly.

The thought of Hagoromo and the Uchiha clan coming together is enough to inspire fear.

Furthermore, the presence of the unfathomable Yu Yixuanyue above them makes things even more troublesome.

as predicted.

Uchiha Izumi, who hadn't said much until now, made her stance clear and directly refused:

"The Uchiha can never return to Konoha. We don't want to endure the villagers' 'different treatment' anymore, nor do we want to be labeled as traitors one day and suffer another massacre."

'Huh? There's something interesting in what you said!'

Kurotsuchi and the other Iwa ninja pricked up their ears as if they were listening to a juicy piece of gossip.

Although they are currently working together with Konoha, they haven't forgotten that they are competitors and are still willing to listen to Konoha's embarrassing stories and spread them around.

"why?"

Before Yamato could say anything more, Naruto spoke up anxiously.

He was quite pleased when he heard Captain Yamato's suggestion that the Uchiha clan return to the village.

After all, this way Sasuke could also come back.

But now Uchiha Izumi has taken the initiative to refuse, which he finds very difficult to understand.

Why do people fight to the death?

We were family before, can't we just get back together?

"idiot."

Sasuke said calmly from the side.

I thought Naruto's strength had improved a lot in the past two years, and his intelligence should have improved as well.

The result was the same as always – taking things for granted.

No matter how well a broken mirror is repaired, it can never be the same as before.

Even if the surface is forcibly repaired, the unseen internal cracks will still exist.

Having experienced the night of the massacre, the Uchiha clan could no longer entrust their fate back to Konoha.

Moreover, compared to Konoha, the Uchiha clan already had a better place to serve.

Naruto fell silent.

He didn't understand why Sasuke, Kurotsuchi, and many others thought he was an idiot, naive, and presumptuous.

Yes.

He doesn't understand the adult world.

But is the adult world always right?

Is it wrong to exchange one person's sincerity for another's sincerity?

He is willing to keep trying things that others are unwilling, unable, or unable to do.

Sometimes, however willing you are, there will always be various obstacles.

"So, as Captain Yamato said, we must continue to grow until we are someone that no one can ignore, right?"

Naruto clenched his fist with a complicated expression.

Just then, wisps of ominous red chakra began to leak uncontrollably from his body.

"Disappointment, pain, and helplessness. I felt such intense emotions!"

"Kid, do you want to stop everything from the outside world? Do you want everything to go your way? Power! You need more power!"

Inside the sealed space, the Nine-Tails' enormous body emerged from the darkness, beckoning to the bewildered Naruto outside through the prison bars.

"Tear open the seal on the fence, and I will grant you power. Power enough to change everything!"
