The world I hear is completely different from yours.

For example, right now, the wise Uchiha Itachi keenly sensed the tense atmosphere permeating his home, so he cleverly ran out of the house in advance and hid alone in the yard to observe ants for amusement, avoiding appearing in front of his irritable parents, lest he be accidentally dragged over by his stern-faced parents to be spanked for their anger.

Seeing Itachi Uchiha's focused expression like a little adult, Tian Qing immediately gave Itachi a thumbs up in her heart. Look at him, while those other 1 or 2-year-old kids are still busy rolling around and learning how not to wet their pants, our genius Itachi has already learned to quietly squat and observe ants without any teacher!

As expected of Itachi in the future, it's no wonder that many people on the internet later admired Uchiha Itachi to the extreme, saying things like "Pangu existed before the heavens, and Itachi was even before Pangu" and "Kuafu chased the sun, and Itachi chased Kuafu's sun." It turns out that Itachi was already so extraordinary when he was a child!

Suddenly, looking at this chubby-cheeked young Itachi, Tian Qing felt like she was about to become a fan.

Isn't that awesome? Isn't that cool? This little Itachi, who can now stand on his own, can already raise his little fists and easily beat all the other kids in Konoha who are the same age. He is truly the number one genius in Konoha without a doubt—because all the other kids are still just crawling.

Then, Tianqing carefully walked forward and accidentally stepped on and killed the ant that Uchiha Itachi was intently observing. Unaware that she had ruined his good time, Tianqing pinched Uchiha Itachi's still chubby little face and made a very cute face.

Seeing such a cute child, Tianqing, who loves children very much, naturally had to go up and take a good look! She remembered that in her previous life, Tianqing was known as the "pink doll terminator". At that time, almost all of her colleagues' children had their faces pinched by her. These children were so scared that they would run away whenever they saw Tianqing. It was even to the point that mentioning Tianqing's name could stop the children from crying at night.

"Wah!!!" Uchiha Itachi immediately opened his mouth and burst into tears without any restraint, his genius demeanor completely gone.

Ding ding!! Epic achievement achieved: Make Itachi cry! This is a great feat that Sasuke could never accomplish in his entire life!

Um, Ameyoshi awkwardly put down Itachi, who was wailing loudly. Just like how one might want to pinch a cat's paw paw, she naturally couldn't resist giving this adorable little boy a squeeze, only to make him cry. But as the Third Hokage, how could Ameyoshi bear the stigma of bullying a child?

So Tian Qing stood up and shouted into the house without changing her expression, "Hey, your kid accidentally ate an ant and is crying now. Aren't you going to come out and do anything about it?"

"Coming, coming!" Mikoto Uchiha rushed out and ran towards Itachi Uchiha, who was crying bitterly. "Eh? Hokage-sama? Weren't you on the front lines in the Land of Wind? Why did you come back early?"

"It's nothing. I just missed my hometown a little, so I came back to visit it early." Tian Qing replied casually, then followed Uchiha Mikoto into the house and headed towards the study to see Uchiha Fugaku, who had been sitting there all night.

Chapter Sixty-Three: You take the blame, you go to your death, and all the remaining benefits are mine.

"Fugaku, I heard you were held captive by a traitor for a while, so I came to see you." Tensei sat down casually, picked up the tea that Uchiha Mikoto had just served, took a big gulp of tea, and said directly to Uchiha Fugaku.

With a pained expression on his face, Fugaku Uchiha said in a heartbroken tone, much like Lin Xiang's wife, "I was so stupid, so stupid." Then, Fugaku raised his eyes, which had been dulled by staying up all night, and continued.

"I only knew that there were bad people and traitors within the Uchiha clan, and that they could cause trouble if not properly supervised; but I didn't know that the vice-clan leader was one of them. That day, I got up early in the morning, opened the door, and took the documents, intending to go out for a meeting. I told our vice-clan leader to sit in the meeting room and wait for me. He used to be very obedient, listening to everything I said; so he went. I first reviewed the documents in my office, and after a while, I needed the latest documents for the meeting. I called the guards at the door, but there was no response. I went out to look, and all I saw was blood splattered on the ground, and all the guards at the door were gone."

“I knew my guards wouldn’t wander off, and then the vice-clan leader came with his men, killed all the guards around me, and then put me under house arrest here…” Uchiha Fugaku continued, but then sobbed, unable to utter a coherent sentence.

His long and heartfelt speech, each word dripping with pain, truly moved listeners to tears. When Fugaku Uchiha reached the depths of his sorrow, his eyes reddened and tears streamed down his face, perfectly portraying the tragic figure of a clan leader misled by his deputy, leading to the family's downfall. If anyone else uninformed were standing there, they would likely have also shed tears, and subsequently become a loyal follower of this grieving clan leader.

Unfortunately, standing in front of him now is Ame-no-Kaze, which means that everything Fugaku Uchiha has done is in vain.

Listening skills activated!!

In Tianqing's ears, the items on Uchiha Fugaku's body told a completely different story:

As the head of the Uchiha clan, Fugaku Uchiha possessed an extremely large intelligence network and numerous supporters within the clan. Therefore, he had long known about the treacherous intentions of the vice-head, Matsu Uchiha. After all, the two had been rivals vying for the position of clan head. So, after Fugaku Uchiha took office, he naturally ordered that Matsu Uchiha's every move be closely monitored.

Subsequently, Uchiha Matsu lost his sight after exhausting his Mangekyou Sharingan. As someone who always revered power, how could he accept becoming blind? Therefore, he decided to secretly restart the eye-transfer experiment that had been forbidden by the Uchiha clan for many years, hoping to find a way to regain his sight.

Fugaku Uchiha was clearly also interested in finding a way to awaken the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan. After all, he didn't have a brother who could awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan, so if he did awaken it in the future, he might end up like Matsu Uchiha, going blind.

However, not only did the Uchiha clan explicitly prohibit eye-transplant experiments, but Konoha Village, which had been closely monitoring the Uchiha clan, also would not allow them to conduct any eye-transplant experiments.

After all, if the eye-transfer experiment succeeds, the Uchiha clan could potentially produce countless masters with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, which would be a disaster for Konoha. Having witnessed the terrifying power of Madara Uchiha and the Nine-Tails, the Konoha leadership has always been deeply wary of the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, since there is no second Hashirama Senju to withstand its attacks!

Therefore, as the head of the Uchiha clan, Fugaku Uchiha would naturally not knowingly violate the law by letting his subordinates know that he was interested in such forbidden experiments, let alone let Konoha Village know about it.

Therefore, Fugaku Uchiha decided to use the vice-clan head, Matsu Uchiha, to make him a scapegoat and take the blame for everything. After all, Matsu Uchiha, who had gone blind, had become completely insane in his quest to regain his power and would have no regard for the Uchiha clan's prohibitions.

Therefore, Fugaku Uchiha planted a considerable number of spies among the vice-chief's subordinates. Taking advantage of the fact that there were no strong figures in Konoha Village, he deliberately guided the vice-chief to start a rebellion, have him "house arrest" and control Konoha Village under the guise of the Konoha Guard, cut off Konoha Village from outside information, and then began the forbidden eye-transfer experiment.

In Fugaku Uchiha's scenario, regardless of whether Matsu Uchiha's experiment succeeds or fails, the spies planted around him will seize the opportunity to take over the results. Only then will Fugaku appear, as a hero who endures humiliation to lull the enemy into a false sense of security, then takes the opportunity to kill the rebels, and incidentally accepts all the results of the eye-transfer experiment.

It can be said that the fate of the vice-clan leader was already sealed from the beginning. After Fugaku Uchiha handed over the unfortunate vice-clan leader's corpse as a scapegoat, even Konoha Village could not blame the Uchiha clan too much for this matter. After all, the Uchiha clan had even handed over their vice-clan leader, so who could bear to ask more of them?

It was a perfect plan that perfectly implemented the principle of "you take the blame, you go to your death, and I'll keep all the benefits," fully demonstrating Fugaku Uchiha's superb qualities as a politician.

However, Tian Qing's reaction directly disrupted his carefully planned scheme.

Fugaku Uchiha never expected that Ameharu would notice the abnormality in Konoha so quickly, and so decisively abandon the huge victory he had just won against the Land of Wind, instead leading a large force back to Konoha. Moreover, he deliberately spread false information as a smokescreen and led his men to invade the Uchiha clan's territory overnight!

Therefore, when Fugaku Uchiha heard those shouts of killing, he was completely dumbfounded!

In his plan, even if Tensei knew about the anomalies in Konoha, he would have to turn a blind eye to the Uchiha clan's underhanded actions when victory was just around the corner. After all, the Uchiha clan's actions were all carried out in secret and were not open rebellions. Therefore, Fugaku Uchiha believed that Tensei would not be in a hurry to take action against the Uchiha clan.

However, Tensei was a Hokage who had long wanted to take action against the Uchiha clan. After noticing the Uchiha clan tentatively extending their fingers, Tensei unceremoniously swung his great axe and chopped off one of the Uchiha clan's "arms"!

Chapter 64 Uchiha Fugaku, you're fired!

Watching Uchiha Fugaku diligently performing and trying his best to portray what it means to be heartbroken, Tianqing smiled slightly and asked seemingly casually, "By the way, Fugaku, you've awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan for quite some time now, haven't you? So, what are you planning to do to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan?"

"Kaleidoscope? Does she already know?!" Fugaku Uchiha paused for a moment, then his face filled with surprise. He asked, seemingly not understanding what Tensei meant, "Hokage-sama, what are you talking about?"

Unfortunately, Tian Qing didn't want to beat around the bush with this little fox anymore, so she went straight to the point: "Clan Head Fugaku Uchiha, since you failed to stop the Vice-Clan Head's rebellion before, it's clear that you lack leadership skills. So I think you should stay home and train for a while longer. As for the affairs of the Uchiha clan, let's leave them to the more energetic younger generation, like Uchiha Shisui, who would be very suitable. What do you think?"

Since you, Fugaku Uchiha, enjoy staying behind the scenes, then let's just keep you in the background. You can retire as clan leader and spend your free time at home making babies with Mikoto Uchiha, hoping to give birth to Sasuke as soon as possible. That way, you'll have fulfilled your historical mission and achieved your goal.

As for the possibility that letting Fugaku Uchiha retire early would change the plot, why would Tianqing be afraid of that now? If he doesn't even have the courage to overturn the table and change the plot, then what kind of transmigrator is he?

Suddenly, the air in the room seemed to freeze.

"Isn't this decision a bit inappropriate?" Fugaku Uchiha clenched his fist, the three tomoe in his eyes slowly emerging, and a dangerous aura began to permeate the air. Then he said, word by word, "After all, deciding on the clan head is an internal matter for the Uchiha clan. It's not right for the village to interfere on its own."

So, this is how it's all about flexing our muscles? Tian Qing smiled faintly. It seems that because he hasn't made a move in the village for a long time, even a junior like this dares to bare his fangs at him? Well then, he'll use you now to test the results of his more than twenty years of training!

boom!!

An invisible aura erupted from Tian Qing, enveloping the surrounding area. Instantly, everyone felt this terrifying aura. In their perception, the air around them seemed to become heavier than a thousand pounds in an instant, like a heavy pair of shackles, firmly locking their bodies and making it impossible for them to move.

"What is this power?!" Fugaku Uchiha's eyes widened, his body trembling instinctively. "How can this be? It's just a wisp of the opponent's aura, how can it have such an effect comparable to a high-level genjutsu?! This feeling is as if a powerful god has appeared in the sky, looking down on all living beings with eyes that scorn all living beings, making everyone feel suffocated, as if if they dare to show the slightest disrespect, they will immediately be struck by a terrifying thunderbolt!"

Over the years, through continuous cultivation, Tianqing finally achieved complete mastery of his power. This not only greatly enhanced the power of his puppet summoning beasts, but also completely integrated the divine robes and blood from his body into his own, thus successfully taking the first step from human to deity.

Although Tianqing cannot use any divine power or magic because she has not comprehended any laws or established her own divine kingdom, her body already possesses some preliminary characteristics of a deity. Therefore, in her previous life, non-humans who had just begun to learn this skill were also called fantasy species.

This is the real reason why Tian Qing is able to have a lifespan far exceeding that of ordinary humans and still maintain her youth. Otherwise, at Tian Qing's current age, she would have long since become an old woman with white hair and severely declining physical strength, let alone things like returning to her hometown to settle scores after increasing her strength.

The aura that Tian Qing is deliberately releasing is actually a basic ability unique to deities. Simply put, it's a pure mental energy surge, demonstrating one's presence to those around them. In other worlds, it's also known as spiritual pressure, aura, or imposing presence, but it's merely a probing tactic before battle.

However, looking at Fugaku Uchiha's pale face, Tensei realized that he had underestimated the power of his aura. Although this kind of pressure unique to gods did not have much effect on strong people, it was extremely effective on Fugaku Uchiha, who was only at the three-tomoe level at the moment!

Then Tianqing spoke up: "If you want a collective vote by the Uchiha clan, that's fine too. Coincidentally, there are quite a few Uchiha ninjas in the expeditionary force I brought back. I believe they will make the right choice!"

Fugaku Uchiha, who was struggling to hold on under the oppressive aura of the clear sky, suddenly changed his expression. In the battle last night, it was the Konoha supporters, led by Shisui Uchiha, who acted as guides and helped the Konoha ANBU break in. Therefore, it was no surprise who they would support in the vote.

Moreover, in last night's battle, not only were the anti-Konoha forces led by the vice-clan leader completely wiped out, but Fugaku Uchiha's spies planted around the vice-clan leader also suffered heavy losses. Therefore, if a clan-wide vote were held now, Fugaku Uchiha might not necessarily win!

Fugaku Uchiha reluctantly shut down his three-tomoe Sharingan, abandoning the idea of ​​a violent confrontation. With his last glimmer of hope, he said, "Hokage-sama, the other ninja clans will not tolerate the village interfering in the internal affairs of the ninja clans like this!"

In terms of strength, Fugaku Uchiha couldn't win; in terms of popular support within the Uchiha clan, he also couldn't win now. Finally, in this helpless situation, Fugaku Uchiha lost his previous composure and confidence, and desperately invoked the other ninja clans as his last excuse.

“The other ninja clans will have no objections, because in a few hours, the victorious Konoha expeditionary force will enter Konoha Village to be greeted with cheers and applause from everyone. At this time when the entire Konoha is celebrating victory, anyone who dares to question the Hokage is the enemy of all Konoha ninjas!” Tianqing withdrew his oppressive aura and said calmly.

Riding the wave of victory, crushing all enemies – that's the inevitable trend!

When Tensei returns with the victorious expeditionary force, the news of the victory will temporarily turn every Konoha resident into a supporter of the Hokage. Any questioning of the Hokage will invite a joint attack from all Konoha residents. Therefore, at this time, no matter what Tensei does to the Uchiha clan, as long as it is not a major event like the extermination of the clan, no one will dare to speak out against it!

This time, Fugaku Uchiha opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't say anything. He could only smile bitterly and lower his head, accepting the fact that he had to retire early.

Chapter Sixty-Five Epilogue: Two People in Silence

As noon approached, under the blazing sun, after receiving a signal from the clear sky, Konoha's aircraft carrier ended its high-altitude circling and appeared above Konoha. The villagers, who had been waiting for a long time, then erupted in a warm welcome.

Many people found the Hokage's hasty decision to withdraw the troops a bit strange. If the expeditionary force had just held on a little longer, they could have forced the Sand Village to surrender unconditionally instead of the current ceasefire and peace talks, which resulted in Konoha receiving far less war reparations. However, victory is victory after all, so no one dared to speak out against the Hokage in front of these victorious soldiers.

For a time, the air was filled with the sounds of gongs and drums, and colorful flags fluttered in the wind. The streets of Konoha were filled with the joy of victory, and many people were immersed in a sea of ​​happiness.

Of course, where there is battle, there is sacrifice. Therefore, in the hearts of the families of those who sacrificed their lives, the taste of victory is probably not so sweet. So while the village is filled with joy, the cemetery and memorial stone on the edge of the village are filled with sorrow and weeping.

After his father's funeral, Might Guy walked into his house alone, sat down in a chair in the room, and looked around his familiar yet unfamiliar home. As a genin who was wounded in battle and lost his father, he was able to withdraw from the battlefield in the Land of Water and return to Konoha to recuperate and take care of his father's funeral.

With his mother gone, Matt Day and Matt Kai were left to depend on each other in this ordinary old house. Now that his father is also dead, Matt Kai feels that his once familiar and warm home has become strangely alien, and the silence is a little frightening to him.

“Father…” Might Guy thought of his father’s figure from years ago, and tears welled up in his eyes again. But quickly, Might Guy resolutely wiped away his tears. “I will not remain immersed in sorrow forever! One day, I will definitely inherit my father’s ninja way and become a great ninja!”

Soon, Might Guy, having regained his composure, silently stood up, walked down from the training room in the house, opened the secret box in the room, and prepared to sort through the belongings left to him by his father: some training insights and techniques, and a storage scroll that sealed the Phoenix Cloth.

When Might Guy set off for the battlefield, he did not bring the Phoenix Cloth with him because he was afraid that if he became obsessed with using this powerful external force, he would become too dependent on ninja tools and neglect the training of his own body. He probably did not expect that he would sacrifice himself in this war.

After looking at the contents of the box for a long time, Matt Kai picked up the scroll.

............................

As dusk fell, Kakashi Hatake stepped out of his house, the first time he had been allowed to leave since returning to Konoha.

After Obito Uchiha's entire family was "defected," a worried Sakumo Hatake forbade his son from going out, requiring him to stay at home all day to avoid being hunted down by the Uchiha clan. Although the Hatake clan had declined, it was still considered a mid-tier ninja clan in Konoha. Therefore, as long as the Uchiha clan did not openly rebel, the Hatake clan's power could still protect Kakashi's life, provided that Kakashi did not leave the Hatake clan's territory.

Just now, after Sakumo Hatake received the good news that Ame-no-Kōshi had led a team to take down an "anti-Konoha group hidden within the Uchiha clan," Kakashi Hatake's application to go out was finally approved.

After learning that his teammate Obito Uchiha and his entire family had "defected," Kakashi Hatake became very depressed. As a young boy, he experienced for the first time the darkness and malice hidden in society. Therefore, when Kakashi learned that the Hokage had led the team to eliminate the traitors of the Uchiha clan, he decided to go out immediately and try to find his former teammates.

Soon, Kakashi arrived at a small alley where there was a shop that he, Obito Uchiha, and Rin Nohara often came to eat and chat.

Although Obito Uchiha had been "defected" for several days and no one had seen him since, it was as if he had never existed. Everyone thought Obito was dead, since with his strength there was absolutely no way he could have escaped the pursuit of the Uchiha clan. However, Kakashi stubbornly believed that Obito was not dead, but had simply gone into hiding temporarily to avoid being hunted down.

But now all the darkness has passed, and the Hokage has thwarted the schemes of those ambitious individuals. Perhaps his comrade, having heard about this, has already emerged from his hiding place and is now happily eating ramen in the shop, waiting for him? With this glimmer of hope, Kakashi Hatake hurriedly entered the small, nearly empty shop.

This is a quiet little shop. To call it a little shop is an understatement; it's really just a roadside stall with only one small table.

In the past, after finishing those tedious and low-level tasks, Kakashi Hatake would come here and eat with Obito Uchiha and Rin Nohara around this small table. While eating, Obito would start arguing with Kakashi, and the two would often quarrel fiercely, while Rin Nohara would act as a peacemaker in the end.

However, Kakashi didn't see his former teammates. Only a somewhat familiar-looking ninja with a watermelon-shaped haircut sat with his head down at the table. Kakashi searched his memory, vaguely remembering the ninja's name—it seemed to be "Might Guy"?

"Is anyone sitting here?" Kakashi asked as he walked over. There was only one table in the small shop, so it was common for diners to share tables.

Matt Kai didn't answer, he just nodded silently. After sorting through his father's belongings, all he wanted now was to find a quiet place to eat something and think about his future.

After seeing the other person nod, Kakashi Hatake sat down and quietly waited for the owner to bring him his food. He planned to wait there for a while, and maybe in a few hours, Obito would come in covered in dust, grinning, and greet him.

As the twilight sun began to slant, in a secluded little shop, two ninjas, Kakashi Hatake and Might Guy, sat facing each other in silence, both deep in thought. They simply ate their food in silence, waiting and pondering.
