Naruto: Naruto started the Fourth Shinobi World War for me

The next day, Ningxia was released from prison with an angry Izuna standing beside her.

"Hentai!"

Izuna angrily scolded Ningxia, who had already had cats forge her armor, preparing to shine in the next war.

This morning, when I excitedly went to see my sister, she told me to get to know Ningxia, and that they would be...

Are you kidding me?! She doesn't want to be with this pretty boy; she wants to follow her sister and wipe out the Thousand Hands clan!

Ningxia shrugged. At first, he was just as confused. Did he have some kind of constitution that attracted little girls? How come they were offering themselves to him once or twice, and now they were even offering themselves to him?

However, after hearing Ban's explanation, he could roughly understand the other person's feelings.

The battlefield is a ruthless place. Even an elite Jonin can be killed by an explosive tag or a kunai, let alone a child.

Madara had his own selfish motives. Doctors were strategic resources, and the Uchiha clan would not hesitate to meet their needs as long as they weren't too demanding, including the clan leader's daughter.

So she made a deal with Ningxia, asking Ningxia to temporarily hold off Quannai, and promising to set Ningxia free once she became the clan leader.

Madara Uchiha kept her word.

Ningxia had nowhere else to go, so before the Tiger Talisman awakened, it was better to stay in the Uchiha clan's territory, at least to ensure his safety.

So he agreed to Madara's request and specifically asked for Izuna.

Of course, he wouldn't lay a hand on Izuna; he really doesn't like lolis!!!

"From now on, Izuna is entrusted to you."

Madara gently stroked Izuna's head; of all her younger siblings, Izuna was the one she loved the most.

Therefore, she has been trying her best to delay Izuna's departure to the battlefield, as she does not want to lose any of her younger siblings, especially Izuna.

After instructing Izuna to stay obediently by Ningxia's side, Madara prepared to go for training. Although she had not yet awakened her Sharingan, her ninjutsu, taijutsu, and genjutsu were among the best in the Uchiha clan.

To protect her family and her people, she must fight even harder to become stronger, strong enough to kill all her enemies, even though she feels it's all meaningless.

Ningxia and Izuna stared at each other, Ningxia thinking that Izuna looked just like Zuoyue from before.

The latter was furious at the strange pretty boy who prevented her from going to the battlefield, and no matter how handsome he was, he could not suppress his anger.

But because of what Ban said, she could only clench her little pink fists in silence, wanting to fight back but unable to.

Are you hungry?

Ningxia calculated the time; Izuna had been dragged over by Madara early in the morning, so he probably hadn't eaten breakfast.

"I'm not hungry!"

Izuna said angrily, her puffed-up cheeks and sulking expression making her look more like Zuo Yue.

"Gurgle..."

As her stomach growled in protest, Izuna blushed slightly. Why was her stomach so uncooperative?!

"Where is the kitchen? Don't let my appearance fool you, the kids around me used to love what I made."

"Since you've put it that way... I... I'll reluctantly agree. By the way, the child with you..."

"They...are in a very far away place."

Ningxia sounded lost and dejected. The only way to return to the original timeline was to obtain the Tiger Talisman.

"..."

Izuna, however, thought Ningxia meant they were all dead, and for a moment didn't know what to say. Initially, she had also felt sad about the deaths of her friends and elders.

But... that sadness eventually turned into numbness, and without realizing it, Izuna had become accustomed to the existence of death.

In Izuna's mind, only by killing the enemy can he protect his people.

As for anything else, she couldn't think of it, nor could she understand it.

Although I initially swore to myself that I would never accept Ningxia no matter what, well... it's actually quite appealing!

"Eat slowly."

Ningxia stared at Izuna in a daze, wondering what would happen to everyone after she suddenly disappeared.

Naruto, Haku, Toneri, Satsuki, Gaara, Temari, and Kakashi.

When I use the rabbit talisman to go back, I should be able to return to the time I disappeared, right? I should try to avoid making them wait too long.

"Why...why are you looking at me like that...?"

Izuna, who had been enjoying her meal immensely, felt a little shy. The thought of being specifically named by Ningxia made her wonder if she really had to be with such a pervert...

No, no, I still have to go to the battlefield with my sister to kill the Thousand Hands. How could I possibly be with a man like that...

"Sorry, you look a bit like someone I know."

Ningxia apologized softly, but Quanna frowned her handsome eyebrows and complained that this way of flirting was too old-fashioned!

Looking at the precocious Izuna, Ningxia couldn't help but chuckle. Not only did he look a lot like Zuo Yue, but he also had a slightly sarcastic personality.

"But...you cooked it very well, I really liked it...thank you..."

Izuna said softly. She was naturally not corrupted by mere food, but... since she had already made it, she might as well eat it.

However, before Izuna could fully enjoy it, the aroma had already attracted the few free children in the clan.

It's no wonder Izuna was angry. A child her age should have been on the battlefield long ago. It was because Madara kept delaying that she was able to live safely until now.

This feeling of not fitting in made Izuna very uncomfortable, so he desperately wanted to join the war to prove that he was a member of the group.

But nowadays, Izuna prefers to be a loner.

The people in front of him were all a few years younger than Izuna, and their big, dark eyes were fixed on the buns in Izuna's bowl, filled with longing for the food.

"What...what are you looking at! Don't look! Don't look! I don't have much left!"

Izuna immediately breathed out a puff of air, stuffing the food into his mouth while waving for them to hurry up.

But Izuna's actions were of no use; instead, they attracted the patrolling clansmen as well.

During the Warring States period, families were a unified entity, and it was not possible for each family to cook for themselves. At most, they might occasionally borrow a kitchen to cook for themselves.

Even the Uchiha clan was no exception. They trained every day, took on missions, and fought with other clans and villages. Naturally, they prepared their food in the most convenient and nutritious way possible.

As for the taste... as long as it's edible, it's fine.

"Izuna, what are you doing?"

Even Ban was drawn over by the aroma; it smelled so good. Since Ban was old enough to understand, he had always eaten the clan's communal meals and had never smelled such fragrant buns before.

"Sister! They... um... ooh..."

Izuna stuffed one of the two remaining buns into his mouth and handed the other to Madara before explaining the reason.

"Are you still a cook?"

"Well... a doctor who can't cook isn't a good cook."

Ningxia was talking nonsense with a straight face, but it unexpectedly made Ban laugh, looking at Izuna's expectant expression.

Instead, she was sternly reprimanded for trusting Ningxia so quickly. What if the other party was an inside agent? Even if she trusted her, she still needed time.

"But...sister, didn't you say...he's mine...um..."

Madara's expression froze, then he hesitated before indicating that even so, Izuna shouldn't...

Mmm...it smells so good!
