Konoha: We, the Uchiha, are ready to give up!

Uchiha Jin muttered to himself.

Yes.

His performance just now was nine parts genuine, but one part fake.

He truly admired Minato Namikaze and liked his personality; if possible, he wouldn't mind changing his fate.

But, in essence.

His nine parts truth were just to cover up that one part falsehood!

Uchiha Jin understands human nature!

If he had revealed even the slightest intention, whether it was to win over Minato Namikaze or something else entirely...

Therefore, out of human nature, Minato Namikaze would be on guard.

To completely change a person's values, you naturally can't make them wary.

Otherwise, you'll achieve half the result with twice the effort!

and so.

Under the guise of doing what's best for Minato Namikaze, he kept advising him to be careful.

This action is done without seeking any reward.

This was done to lower his guard and hostility.

Because his feelings were genuine, Minato Namikaze naturally couldn't detect them.

Then present the facts and reason with him, gradually shattering his worldview.

Using "for your own good" as an excuse, they unknowingly and secretly achieve their own goals.

Just like he said.

What's free is often the most expensive!

Although he may seem to have achieved nothing this time, the benefits he gained would be enormous if he could change Minato Namikaze's values.

Minato Namikaze, yellow flash.

Naruto Uzumaki, the future reincarnation of Ashura.

There's also Jiraiya, one of the legendary Sannin of Konoha, and Mount Myōboku behind him.

With such immense strength, if the goal can be achieved, then they will all be rendered useless.

Even if this strength won't help me, it's enough as long as it doesn't help Hiruzen Sarutobi.

……

After half an hour.

When Uchiha Jin returned home, he saw Shiki Aburame and Ryoma Aburame standing outside the courtyard gate.

"Jin-kun".

"Chief Zhiwei, you're too kind. Let's go inside and talk."

After a brief greeting, Uchiha Jin pushed open the door and entered.

Aburame Shiki and Aburame Ryoma naturally followed behind him, all the way to the pavilion in the courtyard.

He first invited the two to sit down, and then Uchiha Jin went to make tea.

About ten minutes later.

Upon returning, Uchiha Jin brewed a cup of tea for the two of them before smiling and speaking.

"This is the Hokage's finest tea."

"I heard from the Hokage that there is only one tea tree in the Land of Fire that produces this Jade Spinning Top, and only the Daimyo of the Land of Fire is qualified to enjoy it."

"You're all lucky, so please don't stand on ceremony with me!"

Ryoma Aburame looked completely bewildered.

Actually, let's not talk about him.

Even Zhiwei, the oil lady who was drinking tea for the second time, looked extremely embarrassed.

but.

Thinking about the important business he had come for, he took a sip of tea and then directly stated his purpose.

"Jin-kun".

“I have already spoken to Ryoma about this. When you go to the front lines this time, I hope you can take Ryoma with you.”

"Because I can imagine that as soon as you leave the village, the Hokage will definitely make a move."

"Considering your situation, I may not be able to use the Uchiha Hote for the time being!"

"But Hiruzen Sarutobi would definitely make a move against a mid-level ninja clan like the Aburame."

"After all, he has to make an example of someone!"

Chapter 138 The Aburame Clan's Worries - Let Me Reassure You

The woman's words were concise and to the point.

This decisive and efficient way of speaking and acting seems to be ingrained in their very being.

The situation remains the same.

They had barely sat down, without even exchanging basic pleasantries, when Aburame Shiki directly stated his purpose.

To put it bluntly!

The worry is that this time, the Aburame clan won't be able to withstand it.

Actually, when you think about it, it's quite normal!

This was the first time in the entire Hidden Leaf Village that Aburame had formed an alliance with the Uchiha clan.

If we don't mess with you, who will we mess with?

Back when Uchiha Jin was in Konoha, Hiruzen Sarutobi was terrified of his methods.

Therefore, he wouldn't dare to act rashly without absolute certainty.

But things are different now.

Now that Uchiha Jin is leaving the village, the Hokage lineage will naturally not let this opportunity pass.

Without Jin, the Uchiha clan was like a tiger without claws to the village's higher-ups.

There's absolutely no fear involved!

Not to mention a mere small ninja clan backed by the Uchiha.

It would be a lie to say that Yu Nu Zhiwei is not afraid.

The Aburame clan was just a mid-tier ninja clan, really quite ordinary in Konoha.

He didn't think he could withstand the village's wrath.

It is conceivable.

To prevent other ninja clans from surrendering to the Uchiha, Konoha will definitely make an example of them this time.

The extermination of the Aburame clan will serve as a powerful deterrent to other ninja clans!

By the way.

This will also be a good blow to the prestige of the Uchiha clan.

and so.

no way!

Others might die, but Ryoma Aburame was different.

As the most talented young member of the clan, he carries the future and expectations of the Aburame clan on his shoulders.

He cannot die!

This is also the real reason why the oil lady Zhiwei came to her door.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Uchiha Jin frowned slightly.

If Aburame Shiki could consider something, how could he not?

However, it only lasted for a short time.

He really doesn't have any good ideas!

There's nothing we can do about it.

Because active defense only has a few moves.
