Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha lacks motivation.

After completing his after-sales service in the Land of Lightning, Uchiha Gin returned to the Land of Hot Springs and was comforted to see the two women who were so close that they were practically touching each other.

Especially considering that her sister-in-law, Tsukihime, is such a cold and aloof woman, she actually took the initiative to help Hikaru adjust the collar of his yukata to prevent him from being exposed. This made Uchiha Gin somewhat unable to believe his eyes.

"Yes, we had a good talk and found that there were many misunderstandings before."

Having already reached a secret agreement with Tsukihime Otsutsuki, Hikaru Uchiha smiled and took the small hand that was pressed against his chest.

Then, to the other's bewildered expression, she casually took Tsukihime's arm, like two close sisters.

"That's great! You guys keep shopping, I'm going to change my clothes."

Seeing that the relationship between the two had improved, Uchiha Gin looked at his somewhat mismatched outfit and decided to change into a yukata as well.

"Surely it doesn't have to come to this extent?"

Watching Uchiha Gin's departing figure, Otsutsuki Tsukihime, looking uneasy, frowned and asked,

As the highest leader of the moon, she had never been in such close contact with any woman other than Otsutsuki Hikari.

"I know about your relationship with Ah Yin."

Uchiha Hikaru's sudden remark instantly made the guilty Otsutsuki Tsukihime's hair stand on end, but she still managed to maintain her composure.

"What do you know?"

Did this woman not sleep that night?

"A-Yin has no romantic feelings for you, so we are not in competition."

call.

Princess Tsukihime felt relieved; thankfully, her sneaky act hadn't been exposed.

"Since there's no competition, could you share some information about that big-breasted woman with me?"

It turns out that Uchiha Hikaru had another plan in mind; the Otsutsuki Hikari who didn't come down this time was her ultimate target.

"I will never betray Sister Biluo."

"Oh?"

Uchiha Hikaru's narrowed eyes revealed a strong sense of threat.

"You broke your promise."

Otsutsuki Tsukihime, having grasped the meaning behind it, was so angry she gritted her teeth.

"She did agree to your request, but she didn't."

Just moments before, Uchiha Hikaru had maintained a serene expression, but her demeanor had completely changed; her languid voice now carried a hint of allure.

"You guys are shameless."

With trembling fingers, Tsukihime Otsutsuki was so angry that thunder roared. How could her old rival not know that Hikaru Uchiha had two personalities?

What she didn't expect was that the other party would play such a word game with her.

What does what Uchiha Hikaru promised have to do with me, Uchiha An?

"Hmph~"

Uchiha An and Uchiha Hikaru were naturally on the same side, looking at Otsutsuki Tsukihime with a mocking expression. This little secret was enough for her to live on for a lifetime.

"No."

After much internal struggle, Tsukihime Ōtsutsuki finally chose to compromise, and could only silently apologize in her heart to Ōtsutsuki Hakuro, who was working overtime on the moon.

"That's my best friend~"

Seeing this, Uchiha Hikaru switched back, smiling as he patted Otsutsuki Tsukihime on the shoulder.

"Best friend?"

With a deathly pale face, Tsukihime Otsutsuki turned her head in confusion. It was just an act, why was this wretched woman taking it so seriously?

"Any woman who poses no threat to me is my best friend."

So your standards for a best friend are pretty low, huh?

At this moment, Uchiha Gin, who had changed into a yukata, found the two of them, and the three of them went out together to sample the local specialties in the hot spring town. Afterwards, they chose a well-reviewed hot spring hotel to check in.

The next day, Uchiha Gin, who had slept in late, got up and went downstairs, only to find Uchiha Hikaru eating alone in the dining room.

"Xiao Guang, where's your best friend?"

"She went back."

As Hikaru Uchiha sipped her chocolate milk, she looked up, a hint of reluctance on her face. She hadn't yet managed to extract any information about Otsutsuki Hikari from her, and the latter had already made an excuse about clan matters and fled overnight.

My sister-in-law is getting more and more rude; she didn't even say goodbye when she left.

"Honestly, they didn't even tell me."

Uchiha Gin pursed his lips, pulled out a chair and sat down, then unceremoniously picked up the breakfast that Uchiha Hikaru had left over and began to eat it heartily.

"They left in a hurry, they must have really had something to do."

"Alright, let's head back today then. Let's finish this task as soon as possible and relax at home for a few days."

He'd soaked in the hot springs at the hotel, eaten snacks, and even had a massage. Well, he'd done all the must-see activities. Uchiha Gin figured there was no point in staying any longer; he might as well go home and practice his skills.

"Hmm, perfect timing! I'll show you something exciting!"

Uchiha Gin nodded, then gave a mysterious smile that instantly perked him up.

Did Xiaoxue learn some new technique?

"Hikaru, you might be a genius."

Deep in the mountains of the Land of Hot Water, a faint smell of sulfur hung in the air. On a relatively flat clearing, Uchiha Gin stared wide-eyed as he reached out and put his dislocated jaw back together.

"Heh heh~ How about it?"

All I can say is, you're unbeatable.

Parked in front of Uchiha Gin was a majestic J-20, exuding an aura of destructive power; its cherry-red paint job was strikingly eye-catching.

"Then what are you waiting for? Come on up!"

Hikaru Uchiha, sitting in the driver's seat, smiled and invited Gin Uchiha to ride with him.

As he sat in the J20 transformed from Susanoo, Uchiha Gin excitedly touched it left and right. Seeing this, Uchiha Hikaru proudly raised his head, waved his hand, and immediately set off.

swoosh~

"Aaaaaah!!!"

Land of Fire

"Ugh~ Ugh~ Ugh~"

"Ah Yin, are you alright?"

Uchiha Hikaru patted Uchiha Gin on the back with a worried expression until the latter vomited up everything he had eaten that morning.

"Wow, that speed is so exciting!"

Clearly feeling airsick, Uchiha Gin opened his pale lips and said with lingering fear,

"I managed to control my speed, otherwise I could have gone even faster!"

"!!!"

The two traversed half of the Land of Fire in less than ten minutes. Even if Uchiha Gin used the Tenseigan Chakra Mode, he couldn't fly that fast.

"You flew very well. I'll definitely take you with me next time we go out to play."

After catching their breath, Uchiha Gin, accompanied by Uchiha Hikaru, stepped through the gates of Konoha. After a brief inspection, they finally returned to the familiar streets, only to find them decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and the residents all in high spirits, leaving the two somewhat puzzled.

"I thought the Lunar New Year was still a month away, so why is everyone so festive? Has something good happened?"

Uchiha Gin stroked his chin in confusion, then casually pulled over a passerby and asked what had happened.

"You just got back, right?"

The passerby clearly didn't recognize Uchiha Gin. After glancing at the headbands the two were wearing, he lowered his guard and asked,

"That's right, we just got back from a mission, why is everyone so happy?"

"Hey~ This is definitely some very happy occasion!"

"happy event?"

Uchiha Gin and Uchiha Hikaru looked at each other, wondering if they had really missed something.

"The Hokage is overjoyed to have a grandson."

Huh? My cousin doesn't even have a wife, so where would he get a grandson?

"No, it's the bottom of Hashirama's cell!"

Just as Uchiha Gin was about to launch into a tirade, he suddenly remembered that Konoha had a Hokage, and his expression instantly became quite interesting.

Without Mito, is Tsunade still Tsunade?

"Wow~ Wow~ Wow~"

The baby's cries echoed in the Hokage's office. Hashirama Senju, his face filled with panic, held a tiny infant, looking utterly helpless. In his desperation, he turned his gaze to Tobirama Senju standing nearby.

Tobirama, help me.

"I can't help!"

"How can you be so heartless? Tsuna is your granddaughter too!"

"I'm a bachelor, how would I know how to coax a child?"

Tobirama Senju waved his hand stiffly; he was least adept at dealing with human cubs.

"Mada!"

"Me too!"

Madara Uchiha, with the same expression, immediately said he couldn't help Hashirama Senju when asked for a favor, even going so far as to lower himself and equate himself with Tobirama Senju.

"I should have gone to buy diapers."

Hashirama Senju deeply regretted sending Momoka to buy diapers. Had he known the child would be so difficult to raise, he would never have chosen to keep him.

"Wow~ Wow~ Wow~"

As the baby in the swaddling clothes cried, the three giants of Konoha were in a panic. These three grown men, who could deal with tailed beasts without batting an eye, were now helpless against a small baby.

creak!

"Taohua! Have you returned to Brother Yin?"

Hearing the door open, Hashirama Senju rushed over with his child in his arms, only to find that the person who entered was not his wife, but Gin Uchiha, who looked on with curiosity.

"Congratulations, Hashirama, on the birth of your beloved grandson!"

Hearing the loud, energetic crying, Uchiha Gin raised an eyebrow and turned his gaze to the baby in Senju Hashirama's arms.

With sparse, pale yellow hair and flawless skin, it was a typical human cub.

So pink and cute!

"Don't cry, don't cry, this is Grandpa Yin~"

"Wow! Wow! Wow!"

Since it wasn't Momoka, Hashirama Senju could only awkwardly continue to hold the child and rock her left and right, trying to calm her down. However, this backfired, and the crying only got louder.

"I'm sorry you had to see this."

With a helpless expression, Hashirama Senju gave Gin Uchiha a bitter smile.

"It's alright, it's alright. The fact that he can cry so loudly means that this child has a good constitution. He will definitely be a promising ninja in the future."

Uchiha Gin waved his hand, indicating his understanding.

"Haha, our Xiaogang is much better than her dad!"

"In Hashirama's prison, I don't know the child's name?"

Although he had guessed the answer, Uchiha Gin still wanted to verify it.

"My granddaughter, Tsunade~"

"Wow! Wow! Wow!"

The crying continued. Uchiha Gin looked at the baby in Senju Hashirama's arms, thought for a moment, and then took out a gold brick from the bag behind him.

"Come on, it's almost Chinese New Year, Grandpa Yin has prepared a gift for you~"

"Brother Yin, how could I possibly accept this!"

Seeing this familiar scene, Hashirama Senju instinctively reached out to take the gold brick, but Gin Uchiha didn't give it to him. Instead, he waved it in front of the crying Tsunade.

"Brother E Yin, what's going on?"

"Hehehe"

"Huh?" *3

The three people in the office, who had been listening to Tsunade's cries for a while, stared wide-eyed at the smiling baby, their expressions as varied as could be.

"Looks like you really like gold~"

Uchiha Gin moved the gold brick in his hand from side to side, while Tsunade, who had stopped crying, followed the gold brick with both eyes, and the drool at the corner of her mouth almost soaked the entire swaddling clothes.

"Here you go!"

Without continuing to tease the child, Uchiha Gin handed over the gold brick. Tsunade surprisingly reached out and hugged the glittering gold brick tightly, pressing her chubby little face against it, looking as if she would never let go.

Such greed at such a young age, what will she be like when she grows up!

"She's quite strong~"

I never expected that a baby who is only a few days old would have such strength. No wonder he is a descendant of aliens. He is not comparable to ordinary people.

"Haha, Brother Yin really knows how to coax kids!"

Seeing that Uchiha Gin had easily calmed his granddaughter down, Senju Hashirama smiled and praised her.

"Hmph~ Is this what you call soothing a child?"

Tobirama Senju, standing to the side, curled his lip in dissatisfaction, thinking that this would only encourage the evil trend of greed!

"Big cousin, why are you back so soon?"

Madara Uchiha looked at Gin Uchiha with some confusion. Logically speaking, the other party shouldn't have returned so early. Could it be that there was an unexpected situation during the mission?

"The mission is complete. Xiao Guang is fast, so he came back early."

Uchiha Gin shook his head, indicating that nothing was wrong; it was just that they were too efficient.

"It's good that you're alright. You can submit the mission report in a few days; the whole village is having a celebration these days, and everyone's on a long holiday~"

"Hashirama seems to really dote on his granddaughter while he was in prison~"

"There's nothing we can do; this granddaughter of Hasi Hot Mom has quite a background."

"Oh? How is it not simple?"

"She is the granddaughter of a famous man, and she was born with a title. She is a true princess."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Gin turned to look at the baby holding the gold brick, his face beaming with delight. His eyebrows arched upwards.

"Tsunade-hime, huh."

Surprisingly, even without Mito, Tsunade was still born, and her talent seems to be quite good.

"I'm not letting Tsuna become a noble again. She'll definitely become a world-renowned ninja!"

Holding the now-calm Tsunade, Hashirama Senju's face was filled with doting affection.

In order to reach an agreement with the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, Hashirama Senju painfully sacrificed his son's future, making him the Daimyo's son-in-law and thus keeping him away from the path of a ninja.

However, the Senju clan needed someone to manage it, and Tobirama, the old bachelor, couldn't be relied on. The future of the Senju clan could only be placed on Tsunade. Therefore, Hashirama Senju vowed to raise his granddaughter into a capable ninja who could contribute to the development of Konoha.

"Hey cousin, look at him! Hashirama's even got his grandson in prison. Your back's still not giving way, are it? Can't you give it a try?"

Looking at Hashirama Senju's confident expression, Gintoki nudged Madara Uchiha, who remained silent, hinting that he should take advantage of his remaining essence and contribute to the future of the Uchiha clan.

"Stop nagging, how old am I?"

Madara Uchiha was shocked that Gin Uchiha would shamelessly mock him, and immediately retorted without holding back.

"But you, cousin, are still unmarried at your age. Those women your age already have grandchildren who are almost Chunin level." (End of Chapter)
