Naruto, your uncle is going to be Hokage!

While many people say they are cute, girls are going too far!

It still comes from such a blond brat!

Namikaze Mirai looked at Sasuke and Itachi with a smile.

As he sized up Itachi, Itachi was also sizing him up.

The more he looked, the more cold sweat beaded on his forehead, and his heart pounded as if he were stepping on burning embers.

This man, if he remembers correctly...

The Fourth Hokage's younger brother, and Aunt Kushina's brother-in-law!

Blue flash!

Recently, rumors have been circulating in the village that the fox spirit has found an uncle. The major clans of Konoha have already received intelligence that the Blue Flash has returned to the village.

This legendary ninja, who had disappeared for three years, finally returned to the Konoha stage after three years.

Furthermore, as a member of the Uchiha clan, Itachi knew more information than ordinary villagers.

The turmoil at the Hokage Building a few days ago was caused by Namikaze Mirai!

The entire Hokage Building was breached, and they calmly left despite being surrounded by a large number of Anbu and Hokage.

This kind of oppression...

"Simi Masai!"

Itachi could no longer control himself. He bent over at a ninety-degree angle and gave a standard and respectful bow, his head almost touching the ground.

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!!!"

Sasuke, who was riding on his shoulders, fell off and crashed to the ground. The three-colored pills in his hand also flew out and rolled several meters away, covered in dust.

"Nisan, what are you doing?! I can't even eat the dumplings anymore."

Rubbing his forehead, which was red and swollen from the fall, Sasuke's small eyes reddened.

His expression quickly froze.

Itachi still didn't raise his head, his whole body folded at a 90-degree angle.

"Please forgive Sasuke's ignorance. I sincerely apologize to you on his behalf, Sumimasai!"

Sasuke's jaw nearly dropped to the ground, his dark brown pupils filled with disbelief.

What the heck? Am I under a spell?

Why is Nissan so respectful to this blond kid? Or did he accidentally offend someone he shouldn't have?

Sasuke shivered.

After all, he was only a three-year-old child, and his mind was not mature. Seeing his respected older brother behave like this, he was so frightened that his eyes welled up with tears.

Sweat beaded on the weasel's lowered forehead.

His behavior stemmed from two reasons: firstly, his fear of Namikaze's future strength, and secondly, his attempt to exonerate the Uchiha clan!

The ordinary villagers might not know what happened on the night of the Nine-Tails, but he, as the eldest son of the Uchiha clan leader, knew it very well.

That night, three tomoe appeared in Kurama's pupils, seemingly manipulated by the Sharingan.

This is precisely why the Uchiha clan is so distrusted by the higher-ups!

They suspect that the Nine-Tails Night is related to the Uchiha clan!

Mirai Namikaze's older brother and sister-in-law died during the Nine-Tails Night.

Given this context, if Sasuke's comment, "Your whole family are girls," had touched a nerve with Namikaze Mirai, the consequences would have been troublesome...

It is highly likely that the scene at the Hokage Building will be repeated in the Uchiha clan's territory!

The air seemed to freeze, and Itachi and Sasuke, feeling oppressed, could barely breathe.

Itachi, bowing at a ninety-degree angle, had his clothes soaked with sweat, looking like a sinner awaiting judgment. Sasuke, seeing this, covered his mouth and held his breath, almost bursting into tears.

In such a repressive atmosphere.

The bowing weasel suddenly heard a soft, slightly mocking laugh.

Why are you so nervous? I'm not going to eat you.

Although his tone was somewhat dismissive, his nonchalant attitude seemed genuine.

Itachi tentatively raised a corner of his head.

"You really don't care?"

Chapter 8 Aunt Mikoto is a very beautiful woman!

That happened.

Honestly, if I were Namikaze Mirai...

When he returned to the village after disappearing for three years, the first news he received was that his older brother and sister-in-law had both passed away.

The Uchiha clan is closely related to this matter!

I'm sure I'll be filled with hostility towards the Uchiha clan, and I might even mistake them for the murderers who killed my brother.

In this state of mind, what if you happen to encounter the son of the Uchiha clan leader on the road?

Coincidentally, the son of this enemy made an offensive remark, using the word "girl" to insult his deceased brother and sister-in-law...

Itachi shivered.

That's why he was shocked by Mirai Namikaze's nonchalant attitude.

"Your name is Uchiha Itachi, right?"

Namikaze Mirai has a very kind smile, and her smiling appearance might make others think of her as a friendly older brother next door.

But the more this happened, the less Itachi understood what he was thinking.

The deeper the anxiety, the more uneasy one becomes.

"Yes."

Itachi dared not say too much, as he was unsure of Namikaze Mirai's attitude towards the Uchiha clan.

To be on the safe side, avoid touching on the other person's sensitive nerves.

Just as Itachi was on edge, Mirai Namikaze's next words left him speechless.

"Oh my, time flies. I didn't realize Fugaku's son was so grown up. It seems like he hasn't been to the Uchiha clan's territory since Mikoto got married. I wonder how Mikoto is doing now."

A hint of reminiscence flickered in Miku Namikaze's smiling eyes as she gazed at the end of the street, reminiscing about the bygone years.

Itachi's jaw almost dropped to the ground.

Even the usually composed man was speechless with astonishment upon hearing what Mirai Namikaze said.

Fugaku is their father, that's true, but who is Mikoto?

In a daze, Itachi felt as if he had discovered something extraordinary.

There is great terror!

Namikaze Mirai didn't seem to notice Itachi's shock, or rather, he didn't even realize it, and smiled as he reminisced about the past.

Back then, he, Kushina, Mikoto, and a few others had a close relationship.

Many hilarious and absurd stories also occurred between him and Mikoto.

This entanglement continued even after Mikoto got married.

That's why it had to be stopped.

After all, he had no interest in married women.

This is also why Kakashi was so certain when he mentioned the Uchiha clan yesterday in front of Minato's tomb.

Minato's becoming Hokage was of great benefit to the Uchiha clan.

At least, Minato genuinely wanted to ease tensions between the village and the Uchiha clan.

Given enough time, a brand new, thriving Konoha will be born.

The Uchiha clan had no reason to, and could not, do something so foolish as to ruin their bright future and end up in this state where everyone hates them.

Of course, based on his understanding of Fugaku, that coward was definitely not someone with the guts to do such a thing.

The real culprit must be someone else!

"When you get back, remember to tell Fugaku that I will personally visit the Uchiha clan's territory in a while."

Namikaze Mirai's eyes crinkled into crescent shapes as she smiled.

"Consider it an apology for what happened back then."

No wonder!

His target is Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo, and his high-ranking officials. He wants to align his interests with those of the Uchiha clan, and forming an alliance with them would be very beneficial to him.

In addition, we might be able to learn more about that night through Fugaku's connections.
