Konoha: Uchiha, I get stronger by causing trouble.

Chapter 20 The Village Tyrant

This woman's reaction is strange!

Chiga had anticipated Fugaku Uchiha's emotional outburst.

But Uchiha Mikoto's complete lack of reaction was something he hadn't expected.

Didn't this woman realize that he was trying to break them up?

Does Mikoto Uchiha have absolutely no feelings for Fugaku Uchiha?

At this moment, Mikoto Uchiha seemed to feel she needed to respond, so she smiled and said to Chiga, "I just had a small misunderstanding with Fugaku, it's not at all about not getting married!"

"Okay, I understand."

Chiga sighed. Since he couldn't get Mikoto Uchiha's emotional value from this, he decided to escalate his self-destructive behavior.

Then, feigning interest, he looked Uchiha Mikoto up and down, and asked with a hint of doubt, "Mikoto-nee, you seem to have changed a lot these past few days."

"Don't you look prettier?"

Mikoto Uchiha, dressed in casual home clothes, strolled around in front of Chiga.

Chiga stated bluntly, "No, I've gained weight!"

[Negative emotions from Kushina Uzumaki, Emotion Value +20. First time gaining Kushina Uzumaki's Emotion Value, reward: 5 Chakra cards.]

"???"

Chiga stared blankly at Uchiha Mikoto in front of her, as if she had seen a ghost.

He quickly lowered his head, trying not to let Fugaku Uchiha or the object that resembled Kushina Uzumaki notice his unusual behavior.

What's going on?

Uzumaki Kushina?

The system shouldn't lie to him, and Chiga didn't receive any emotional points from Uchiha Mikoto during those words that clearly tried to break up their relationship, so it really wasn't Uchiha Mikoto.

At this moment, Chiga wanted to open his eyes and take a closer look.

But considering that he just provoked Kushina Uzumaki, if he opens his eyes to watch and then Kushina Uzumaki stops pretending, he might get beaten up!

He had heard of Kushina Uzumaki's infamous reputation as a local tyrant!

Wherever it went, people trembled in fear!

The question is, why would Kushina Uzumaki transform into Mikoto Uchiha for no reason?

At this moment, Kushina Uzumaki, who had transformed into Mikoto Uchiha, bent down, a forced smile on her face, and reached out to pinch Chiga's cheek.

"Chiga, you won't win a girl's heart by casually saying a woman is fat!"

hiss!

That's some strength.

Needless to say, it must be Kushina Uzumaki.

Chiga took a step back, not daring to let Kushina Uzumaki touch her again. "Understood, Mikoto-nee. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave!"

After saying that, he ran away without even knowing why the two had come to find him.

Kushina Uzumaki did not try to stop her, but her gaze deepened as she watched Chiga's figure.

"The person is gone now, it's time for you to change back!"

Seeing Chika walk away, Fugaku Uchiha immediately spoke to Kushina Uzumaki.

Kushina Uzumaki nodded upon hearing this, and then transformed back into herself with a puff of smoke.

At the same time, the real Uchiha Mikoto appeared in front of the two using the Body Flicker Technique.

"Kushina, you almost gave yourself away."

Mikoto Uchiha immediately complained to Kushina Uzumaki, saying that as a proper young woman, she would never act like that in front of others.

Kushina Uzumaki didn't understand Mikoto's words at all, and just laughed awkwardly, "Oh dear, I hate it when people say I've gained weight. I almost lost control and went back to how I was!"

Mikoto Uchiha didn't seem to care about that and asked curiously, "By the way, what were you guys talking about earlier? I noticed Fugaku had a dark expression on his face the whole time."

Considering that Chika was also a genius in the clan, Mikoto Uchiha did not get too close, so she did not hear the conversation between the three.

Kushina Uzumaki chuckled and replied dismissively, "Haha, Mikoto, it's better if you don't know."

Kushina is certain that if Mikoto finds out about what Chiga said, she'll make sure Chiga gets what's coming to him.

Seeing this, Mikoto Uchiha stopped asking questions, figuring that Fugaku would tell her once Kushina left.

Thinking this through, Mikoto Uchiha returned to the main topic and said, "How about it? Pretty good disciple Fugaku chose for your boyfriend, right?"

Upon hearing this, Fugaku Uchiha also turned his gaze to Kushina Uzumaki.

As the mastermind behind the Bonds Project, Fugaku Uchiha went to see Minato Namikaze the day after discussing it with Chiga.

At that time, Kushina Uzumaki and Minato Namikaze were together.

So when she heard that the Uchiha clan was going to send members of their clan to Minato Namikaze's command, Kushina Uzumaki suggested that she should test Chiga's character beforehand.

As for why not use one's original appearance.

To put it another way, given her infamous reputation in Konoha, she was afraid she would frighten Chika.

"He has a keen eye for detail. He could tell from the first meeting that Fugaku and I didn't get along well. If it weren't for my well-practiced transformation technique, he would have really noticed something was wrong."

Kushina Uzumaki said with great satisfaction.

"So you say that?"

Kushina Uzumaki clapped her hands together. "Yes, I've decided! I'm going to take him as my apprentice!"

"Huh?!" Mikoto Uchiha's eyes widened in disbelief.

Even though they were best friends, Mikoto Uchiha couldn't keep up with Kushina's train of thought for a while.

He clearly said he was going to consider Chiga on behalf of Minato, but how did the consideration turn into him wanting to take her as a disciple?

Seeing Kushina Uzumaki's serious expression, Mikoto Uchiha turned her gaze to Fugaku Uchiha.

Fugaku Uchiha fell silent.

Kushina Uzumaki's unexpected interest in Chiga was something Fugaku Uchiha hadn't anticipated.

Thinking about it carefully, Minato Namikaze is certainly the best choice, but Kushina Uzumaki also seems pretty good.

Kushina Uzumaki was also a Jonin, and being a member of the Uzumaki clan, she was extremely skilled in sealing ninjutsu.

Kushina personally set up sealing barriers in many important places in the village that required sealing techniques.

She is considered an important figure in the village. The fact that she can still act recklessly and live a lively life in the village shows that even the higher-ups in Konoha are helpless against her.

Moreover, if Kushina Uzumaki were to become Chiga's mentor Jonin, it might be possible to explore some possibilities!

The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was a secret kept by the Konoha village leadership, known only to a very few people.

Kushina Uzumaki is the most suspicious person in the entire village.

Most importantly, since Kushina Uzumaki has taken a liking to Chiga, can he save some mission funds?

After much deliberation, Fugaku Uchiha finally nodded without making a sound.

Kushina Uzumaki did not notice the silent exchange between the couple.

"However, Fugaku had already told Chiga in advance that Minato would be his mentor Jonin. If we suddenly change the person, I'm afraid Chiga won't agree."

"Don't worry, you know my reputation in Konoha!" Kushina Uzumaki held up her hand, making a loose fist in front of her, and said confidently, "He can't escape my grasp!"
