Konoha: The Soul King from the Uchiha Clan

Chapter 297 Punching the Kindergarten?

As an adult and a ninja, Yashamaru was naturally Uchiha Gen's primary target.

Others were merely affected by the aftermath, but the effects were roughly the same.

Gaara, greatly provoked, turned ferocious, drooling and letting out a beast-like growl, his body surrounded by sand that appeared out of nowhere...

"Oh no, Gaara is showing signs of losing control," Yashamaru exclaimed, his expression changing drastically.

"Oh... he's the jinchūriki from your village."

"This sealing technique is really crude..."

Ye Cang rolled her eyes and said, "Stop making sarcastic remarks and hurry up and make your move. I don't want the Jinchuriki to go out of control and harm innocent people..."

The next moment, the sand surrounding Gaara instantly condensed into sand shuriken, and with a whoosh, whoosh, whoosh... the sound of air being cut filled the air as they all shot towards Uchiha Gen.

Uchiha Gen remained seated calmly, only his eyes had transformed into the Mangekyou Sharingan...

Clang clang clang... Black chakra transformed into a skeleton, deflecting the sand shuriken one by one, while a black arm grabbed Gaara, who was unable to dodge in time.

"younger brother!"

Upon seeing this, Temari was shocked and, without thinking, instinctively clenched her fist and rushed towards Uchiha Gen.

Kankuro hesitated for a moment, but ultimately rushed over with his sister.

Both of them had already attended the Ninja Academy and came from families with a strong tradition of ninja training, making them among the strongest of their peers in Sunagakure.

Of course, it would be useless against Uchiha Gen.

Uchiha Gen remained seated calmly, his hands moving slightly. Instantly, the air in the living room transformed into an invisible current, which then turned into transparent ropes, binding the siblings tightly in an instant.

Seeing this, Yecang looked reluctant and was about to speak when Uchiha Genpei noticed and spoke first.

"Women should refrain from interfering when men are doing things!"

"If I wanted to kill them, would they still be alive today?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Cang breathed a sigh of relief and said no more.

If she doesn't kill anyone, nothing will happen. But if she kills a child who knows nothing about her situation, she won't be able to get over it in her heart.

Furthermore, if these three children were to die, the alliance between Konoha and Sunagakure would certainly break down, and war might even break out.

This is something she doesn't want to see.

Seeing his older brother and sister captured, Gaara's emotions fluctuated even more violently, and he struggled with all his might, urging his own power to fight back.

However, firstly, he was too young and didn't have much power yet, and secondly, Uchiha Gen's power was too strong, which Gaara at his current level was not capable of resisting.

So, it's useless.

"Lord Gen, Gaara is just a child, and he's also affected by the Tailed Beasts. Temari and Kankuro are just being overly protective of their younger brother..."

"I had absolutely no intention of offending you. Please be magnanimous and forgive me!"

Yashamaru, the uncle, truly adored his two nephews and niece, even kneeling before Uchiha Gen.

He had wisely refrained from taking action earlier, knowing full well that there was absolutely no chance of winning; he had too many concerns, and his opponent was too strong.

Get up.

I'll repeat myself, I won't kill them.

"If Luo Sha hadn't schemed against my girlfriend, I wouldn't have bothered with them."

"It's beneath you to argue with a child."

"Alright, hurry up and go find Rasa to come see me, stop dawdling." Uchiha Gen waved his hand impatiently.

"Yes, yes."

Yashamaru dared not say anything more, and without even thinking about why the ANBU ninjas outside were not reacting, he hurriedly went out.

"Don't just sit there, go to the kitchen and cook. Aren't you hungry?"

Yekura: "..."

Although her husband had come to confront her, she had never imagined such a scene...

Despite feeling a bit strange, Yekura obediently went to the kitchen and cooked a meal using the available ingredients.

Temari and Kankuro exchanged bewildered glances. This man was not only arrogant and domineering, but he also acted as if he belonged to the family...

"Alright, stop being so awkward and quiet down."

With a single glance from Uchiha Gen, Gaara was instantly captivated by the genjutsu and fell silent. However, Gaara quickly broke free of the genjutsu...

Gaara alone could not possibly escape the genjutsu; it was clearly Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, who was behind it.

It's not that Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, has a good relationship with Gaara now; Shukaku simply doesn't want to miss any opportunity to escape.

"Are you going to oppose me?"

Uchiha Gen's chakra flowed into Gaara's body, entered the sealed space, and transformed into human form to question him.

Given Shukaku's personality, how could he back down when he heard that a mere human dared to question him?

"What's wrong with going against you?"

"Don't think you're so great just because you have the Mangekyou Sharingan. Just wait until I get out, you'll be sorry!"

A sharp voice rang out from Shukaku, its expression vicious.

"Alright, alright, that's how it is. You wait and see..."

After saying that, Uchiha Gen's chakra disappeared into the sealed space.

"Tch, just wait and see. Back in the day, when Kurama challenged me to a fight, I never backed down..." Shukaku said dismissively.

In reality, Uchiha Gen released the three kids.

After being thoroughly beaten down by society, the three kids have become more obedient, at least on the surface, and that's how they are now.

"Hey, you're calling me Gaara, right?"

Gaara glanced at Uchiha Gen, then lowered his head and remained silent.

"He calls me Gaara," the sensible Temari answered with a smile.

"We in Konoha also have a child who was born a Jinchuriki, about your age."

"You lost your mother, he lost his father, and his mother, my wife, and I were all good friends..."

Gaara was immediately drawn to the attention, and he quietly raised his head. Their eyes met, but he quickly lowered his head again.

"Wait a minute, isn't Lady Yekura your girlfriend?" Temari asked, looking puzzled.

"Idiot, can't I have both a wife and a girlfriend?"

Temari: "..."

Kankuro: "..."

Scumbag!

The two precocious individuals already had a basic understanding of romantic love, and couldn't help but curse each other in their hearts.

"He seems a bit different from you..."

"Although he didn't have a father, his mother and elders loved him very much, and he also had many good friends."

Gaara looked up upon hearing this, a strong look of envy appearing in his eyes...

Seeing this, Temari felt heartbroken and, disregarding her own fear, quickly went to Gaara's side, raised her hand to touch Gaara's head, and revealed a bright, sunny smile.

Seeing this, Kankuro hesitated for a moment, then walked over and stood on the other side, a smile appearing on his face, though not as bright and cheerful as Temari's.

Seeing this, Gaara felt a warmth in his heart and a smile appeared on his face.

"It seems your older sister and brother still like you quite a bit..."

"But your dark circles are so bad, are you not sleeping well?"

"Naruto sleeps like a log every day; his mother has to spank him to wake him up."

Upon hearing this, Gaara's eyes flashed with intense envy once again...

This time, Temari and Kankuro looked helpless. This was a problem that even their father couldn't solve, let alone them.

"Wouldn't you like to get a good night's sleep every day?"

"My sealing technique can do that."

Uchiha Gen smiled broadly, but that smile looked more like that of a creepy old man trying to lure a child...

Hehe... If Luo Sha went home and saw his three children doing that kind of thing to him, he would be furious, right?
