Naruto: The Uchiha Calabash Brothers are reshaping the ninja world

Upon hearing this, Gekko Hayate was overjoyed and excitedly replied, "Really... cough cough cough! Really?! Thank you so much, Asuma!"

Asma chuckled, patted his chest, and tilted his head back, looking confident.

"Leave it to me!"

"Alright, enough of that. It's your turn, Asuma." Mo's voice interrupted the conversation.

Asma snapped out of his daze and, meeting those calm, dark eyes, couldn't help but shiver. He lowered his head and said:

"I... my name is Sarutobi Asuma. My favorite foods are sausage and yam noodles. I hate bitter melon. My dream is to live a life free from the constraints of others!"

He was initially a little scared, but when he talked about his dream, he suddenly raised his voice, lifted his head and puffed out his chest, looking much more spirited.

Uchiha Mo nodded. "Alright, that concludes the first day. We'll meet here again tomorrow morning. I'll be giving you a test. There will be a reward for passing and a punishment for failing. Be prepared."

Before the three could react, Mo used his teleportation technique to leave the training ground.

Seeing the ink disappear, Asuma immediately breathed a sigh of relief and complained:

"That old man is really something. Although this guy... is indeed very strong, isn't he a bit too strict? And being disciplined like this by someone my own age, I..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but both of them understood what he meant.

Kurenai Yuhi smiled, while Hayate Gekko responded somewhat awkwardly:

"I... cough cough! I actually think it's pretty good. Although Teacher Mo seems very strict, and in reality... he is quite strict. But at least with a genius as our teacher, our progress will definitely be rapid!"

Kurenai was in a good mood, and she took over the conversation to comfort her:

"Alright, Asuma, stop being so stubborn. Mo said there's another test tomorrow. What are your thoughts?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them started chattering away.

  

……

The Hokage's office.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, with a cigarette in his mouth, couldn't help but smile as he looked at the harmonious scene in the crystal ball.

"Although I didn't manage to get Uchiha Sumi into the Anbu as I hoped, the choice of a team leader seems pretty good? It'll be a good opportunity for me to teach that brat Asuma a lesson."

As he spoke, he seemed to recall Asma's trembling with fear, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Hehehe~ This brat is scared now? With Biwako blocking my way, I can't deal with you, but the Uchiha don't fall for your tricks."

Meanwhile, Uchiha Mo returned home quickly after leaving the training ground.

He spread out a map of the Bird Kingdom's underground black market branch on the table and began to study it carefully with a frown.

Mo planned to take his first mission outside the Bird Country after Asuma and the others had accumulated enough low-level missions. He could also take care of Granny Cat's mission and get his hands on the Kusanagi Sword.

The Land of Birds isn't large, but as one of the main gathering places for underground black market merchants, its black market is extremely widespread. However, the murderer wiped them all out in just about half a month; either it was a gang operation, or it was an extremely powerful ninja.

It's a pity we don't know the specifics of the scene; otherwise, based on the traces of the battle, Mo could have narrowed down the area considerably.

After initially identifying several locations in the Bird Kingdom as key areas for investigation, he put the map together. At present, there were too few known clues, and no matter how much he thought about it, it would be of no use.

"Still water".

Mo gave a low shout, and a young boy with a bulbous nose and big eyes immediately ran out from the inner room, asking with a puzzled look:

"What's wrong, brother? Did leading the team go smoothly today?"

"Come with me to the training ground tomorrow and fight those guys from Class 8. You'll be allowed to use your Sharingan. You'll train with them and me from now on."

Mo put the map back into his ninja tool bag and said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Shisui immediately became excited. "Really? Will I get a reward if I win?"

Mo glanced at him and calmly replied, "No, but there's a punishment for losing."

"Huh? What happened?!"

The next day.

The warm morning sun hung over the mountaintop as Asma and his two companions stood in the training field, their faces still showing signs of drowsiness.

"We're here so early, will Blood... Ink be late again like yesterday?" Asuma frowned, somewhat worried.

But as soon as he finished speaking, two figures, one tall and one short, suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Hi everyone!

Shisui greeted everyone warmly with a sunny smile on his face.

"?"

The three looked puzzled and turned their gaze to Uchiha Mo's face.

Mo calmly introduced, "This is my younger brother, Uchiha Shisui. He is your examiner today, and he will be training with you from now on."

"Your younger brother?!"

The three of them exclaimed in surprise, glancing at Shisui's sunny smile and then at Uchiha Mo's indifferent expression...

"Um...is this your younger brother?"

Asuma squinted, looking on incredulously.

"Genuine brothers!" Shisui said with a smile, his eyes crinkling and his mouth wide with pride.

"Even if he is...your younger brother, he looks way too young, doesn't he? Sending a child to test us? You..."

Asma wanted to say something more, but when she met Mo's calm, unwavering black eyes, she suddenly choked up, then added in a low voice, "Don't regret it later, I'm definitely taking your reward."

Mo smiled dismissively and said:

"If the three of you can defeat him together, I will reward each of you with an A-rank ninjutsu that suits you."

After saying that, Mo turned his gaze to Zhishui.

"Shisui, if you dare to lose, I'll release all the crows you've been raising."

"Really? You'll regret this!" Asuma exclaimed excitedly, thinking, "If I can't handle you, I can certainly handle this little brat! Hmph~ I can even learn an A-rank ninjutsu by beating up his brother..."

Upon hearing this, Shisui's face fell, and he opened his mouth to say something, but Uchiha Mo spoke first:

"Alright, enough chit-chat, both sides, prepare yourselves!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shisui perked up instantly, his eyes hardening.

The two stood facing each other. Shisui raised his right hand, forming a hand seal of opposition, and said softly, "I'm sorry, everyone, but for my crow, I must give it my all!"

The crows that Shisui raised were already quite intelligent, and he expected to be able to cultivate ninja crows in the next generation, which would also be a surprise for his brother, so he would never give up.

"Don't talk like you've already won."

Asuma gritted his teeth, angrily raising his sword finger. Now he could see the similarity between the two brothers: they were equally arrogant.

"Squad 8, first live-fire exercise, battle begins!"

With a wave of his right hand, Mo sent Asuma bursting forth!
