The Great Hero Uchiha

The chakra of the Sage of Six Paths, who was wandering in the ninja world, coalesced into a human figure.

However, the image that is brought together is not the image of an old person at the time of death, but the image of a young person.

Hagoromo Otsutsuki looked at Kaguya Otsutsuki with mixed feelings.

"Mother."

Kaguya Otsutsuki had only sensed Hagoromo Otsutsuki's chakra earlier.

"It's been a long time, Yui."

"Ah."

After responding, Hagoromo Otsutsuki asked a question.

"Now that the family matter is resolved, what are you going to do next?"

The reason why Hagoromo Otsutsuki knew these things was because he had been sealing his Yin-Yang Release within the Gedo Mazo, which allowed him to see the affairs of Uchiha Miyuki and the Otsutsuki clan through the Gedo Mazo.

Hearing these words, Kaguya Otsutsuki was also somewhat confused.

Initially, she couldn't stand the rule of her main clan, so she chose to attack Otsutsuki Isshiki and defect. Later, in order to fight against the main clan's pursuers, she raised two sons. Now that the main clan has been destroyed, she is somewhat unsure how to live her life in the future. No... to be precise, she now wants to find her former life, but finds that the world has changed drastically.

After a long while, Kaguya Otsutsuki finally spoke to Hagoromo Otsutsuki and asked him a question.

"Would you like to stay by my side, Yu Yi?"

Hagoromo Otsutsuki's expression became even more complicated, and after a moment of silence, he finally responded.

"it is good."

Whether out of affection for his mother or for the safety of the entire ninja world, Hagoromo Otsutsuki dared not allow Kaguya Otsutsuki to venture out alone.

Kaguya Otsutsuki looked up at the moon.

"Come with me to see Hamura."

"Okay, sure—"

The two appeared directly inside the moon through a portal, in the place where the remains of Ōtsutsuki Hamura were buried.

The chakra remaining in Otsutsuki Hamura also embodies his image from his youth.

"Mother."

"Ah."

The family of three reunited after a thousand years. Despite everything that had happened, it was as if nothing had occurred. They walked directly out of the cemetery and, just as they had a thousand years ago, strolled into the forest. Finding a tranquil spot, Hagoromo Otsutsuki used his Yin-Yang power to recreate the house where the family had lived a thousand years ago.

As for death?

Both Hagoromo and Hamura have transcended reincarnation and can exist permanently in the form of chakra.

However, compared to immortality, the two preferred to enter the Pure Land to rest in peace.

only……

The two were worried about their mother's seal and the affairs of their main family, which is why they continued to live in the form of chakra.

……

After spending some time with Otsutsuki Kaori, Uchiha Miyuki looked up at the moon, his gaze piercing through the layers of obscuring the moon and landing on Kaguya and her family of three.

At that moment, the second daughter, Uchiha Sakura, returned from outside.

When he left, Sakura Uchiha was just a seven-year-old child. Now she is twelve years old. In these five years, Sakura Uchiha has grown up a lot.

"Mother, I'm back."

Uchiha Miyuki immediately went to greet her, saying, "Your mother isn't feeling well and is resting inside."

Sakura Uchiha saw that Miyuki Uchiha was frozen in place, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.

"Father!??"

"Hmm, how come you don't even recognize me?"

Uchiha Miyuki originally thought that his second daughter would be very excited about this reunion after five years, but to his surprise, Uchiha Sakura's face immediately turned cold.

What are you doing back here?!

Sensing the resentment in Sakura's voice, Miyuki sighed inwardly. If he could, Miyuki wouldn't want to leave his homeland, but the problem of the Otsutsuki clan couldn't be ignored. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something to ease the tension between them, but he didn't know what to say in this situation.

At this moment, Sakura Uchiha did not give Miyuki Uchiha a chance to explain. She immediately snorted and got up to go back to her room.

Seeing this, Uchiha Miyuki sighed again. These kinds of emotional issues were the things he was least good at dealing with.

After a moment of silence, he stood up and went to the door of Sakura Uchiha's room to speak.

"Feel sorry--"

No matter the reason, even if he saved the world, it couldn't change the fact that he, as a father, was absent from his two daughters' lives for five years.

P.S.: I originally planned to finish it all at once, but a lot of relatives came to visit my mother, which is why the updates have become so slow.

Hmm, a new book, I guess it's something I'll try writing—

One Piece.

The specific design is underway.

I'm actually kind of interested in cyberpunk, but I'm a little worried I won't be able to pull it off. =_=

294. Two daughters

Sakura Uchiha wasn't incomprehensible; her father must have gone out to deal with some very important matter, but every time she saw other children on the street accompanied by their parents...

She felt a sharp pain in her heart and was also very worried.

Many nights I couldn't sleep peacefully because of these things, and I was often awakened by nightmares in the middle of the night, always afraid of suddenly receiving news of my father's death.

Both she and her sister, Uchiha Rin, awakened their Sharingan because of this.

If Uchiha Miyuki hasn't returned this year, she will do what her older sister Uchiha Rin did: after graduation, she will frantically take on various missions to gain merits, trying to improve her strength and ninja level as quickly as possible, and act alongside the village's ninjas, searching for information about Uchiha Miyuki throughout the entire ninja world.

It wasn't just Uchiha Miyuki's wife and daughters who wanted to find his whereabouts; the entire village of ninjas shared this desire.

That's why Itachi and Shisui have been wandering outside the village.

The worries that had accumulated over the past five years turned into resentment the moment Sakura saw Uchiha Miyuki. Sakura didn't resent Uchiha Miyuki for being gone for so long, because she knew very well that Uchiha Miyuki was not only a husband and father, but also a hero of Konoha and the current Fifth Hokage, something she had always been proud of.

What she resented was—

For the past five years, Uchiha Miyuki had been completely out of contact, not even with the most basic message of letting her know he was safe. This made her constantly doubt whether Uchiha Miyuki truly cared for her, her mother, and her sister.

Besides these, she also harbored a thought in her heart.

Do not!

To be precise, it's guilt.

She always felt that the reason why Uchiha Miyuki lost contact with his family was because she had complained about her parents picking her up from school back then.

For five years, he felt deeply guilty about this, believing that his willfulness had angered his father and led to this incident.

The reason she had this thought was that the village and her clan had searched the entire ninja world but couldn't find any information about Uchiha Miyuki. This made it increasingly difficult for her to believe her mother's explanation that "father went to save the world." Every time she heard others talking about her father, or heard others being picked up and dropped off by their parents, she couldn't help but think about it...

What has my father gone to do? Why hasn't he come back yet? Why hasn't he contacted the family?

Her constant overthinking led her to a conclusion—

My father doesn't want me, my sister, or my mother anymore.

My mother and sister are both so gentle, but I am the only one who often talks back to my father.

That's why he took all the blame upon himself.

Tormented by this deep self-blame, her heart could never find peace. It was because of this that Sakura Uchiha awakened the Sharingan at the age of nine. This is the price that a true member of the Uchiha clan has to pay to obtain the power of the Sharingan. However, unlike the ninja world of the past, the ninja world of today is shrouded in an atmosphere of peace. Sakura Uchiha does not have to suffer the pain of war while blaming herself.

Otherwise, given Sakura Uchiha's extreme personality, she would inevitably go down an extreme path.

No, that's not right—

She doesn't have a sensitive personality like Sakura Uchiha.

Rather, it is because all orthodox Uchiha clan members are so sensitive that they suffer more from trauma than ordinary people. Coupled with the never-ending war, this has forged the madness of so many Uchiha clan members.

Sakura Uchiha had just wanted to question Miyuki Uchiha about whether the reason for his absence from home for so many years was due to these things.

But I don't have the courage to say it...

Because she was afraid, afraid of getting an answer that matched her inner guess.

Just then, Uchiha Miyuki's voice came from outside the door.

"Feel sorry."

Upon hearing the apology from outside the door, Sakura Uchiha lost all her strength at that moment. She leaned against the wall and slumped to the ground, unable to cry out or shed a tear.

When she was little, she cried without restraint and never hid her sadness. But in the past five years, she has become increasingly afraid to cry out loud and even more afraid to show her inner sadness because she is afraid that her sister and mother will find out the truth and cause them to suddenly disappear and abandon her like her father.

At that moment, she wanted to cry out loud.

After all, Uchiha Miyuki's apology proves that he didn't abandon them back then because of his own willfulness.

Just as his mother said, he was going to handle a major matter concerning the safety of the ninja world.

Even knowing all this, her body instinctively suppressed her tears, and she instinctively activated her Sharingan to hide the sadness in her eyes and used a gentle smile to conceal the sorrow in her heart.

……

Rin Uchiha, Itachi Uchiha, and Shisui Uchiha discovered information that a mysterious organization wanted to attack Konoha, so they rushed back to Konoha. As soon as they returned to the village, they heard people around them talking.

"This morning was terrifying. An enemy in the inner city summoned a ninja beast as tall as a building."

"Yes! That's terrifying."

"It's not surprising that ninja beasts are as tall as buildings, but what's most terrifying is that this ninja beast can actually contend with the Uchiha clan's Susanoo technique."

"Yes! Fortunately, the Fifth Hokage returned in time, otherwise who knows how many more people in the village would have died."

Upon hearing these remarks, Rin Uchiha froze on the spot.

...Father is back??

The same applies to Uchiha Shisui.
