The correct way for the Uchiha to rise

"It seems that Konoha values ​​Kakashi quite a bit. His classmates are all from prestigious families, and his instructor is a Jonin-level Sarutobi clan ninja who can hold his own against two opponents."

Uchiha Kiyoshi was secretly observing the situation on the field.

Kakashi and his two genin were struggling to hold off an enemy of special jonin rank, while their instructor jonin was holding off two other jonin.

The Hidden Cloud Village has a very high level of equipment; it's very likely they came specifically to assassinate Kakashi, the genius of Konoha.

The battle ended quickly, proving that the strength of the Sarutobi clan ninjas was indeed not to be underestimated; one of them single-handedly killed two enemies of the same level.

Judging from his appearance, he seemed to still have energy to spare, and that special Jonin seemed to be someone he deliberately sent over to train the three students.

Uchiha Kiyoshi originally didn't want to show himself, but after thinking about it, he thought, "How could a Kage-level powerhouse like myself be afraid of them?"

He decisively stepped out.

"who!"

The Jonin of the Sarutobi clan were the first to notice the commotion on Uchiha Kiyoshi's side. Kakashi was not weak either, only a fraction of a second slower. After instructing the Jonin to make a sound, he also turned his attention to Uchiha Kiyoshi's direction.

"Crack! Crack!"

Uchiha Kiyoshi walked out clapping.

"A spectacular battle."

As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Kakashi. In the battle just now, three genin faced a special jonin without suffering any casualties, which was naturally Kakashi's achievement.

Throughout the entire battle, Kakashi's side was the most outstanding.

It fully explains what the art of fighting is.

The combination of swordsmanship and the Three-Body Technique is simply perfect.

"Judging from your appearance, you must be Kakashi, the genius who graduated from Konoha at the age of five."

As expected, he truly lives up to his reputation as the son of Konoha's White Fang.

None of the four people opposite Uchiha Kiyoshi responded to his praise.

They felt the pressure.

This is especially true for the Jonin of the Sarutobi clan.

The stronger one is, the more sensitive one becomes to danger; he could clearly sense the danger posed by the ninja in front of him.

Invincible!

"However, what you just did doesn't seem to be the best approach. It's the complete opposite of what your father did."

"..."

Kakashi remained silent and did not answer.

Sarutobi was also anxious at this moment, and sweat was beading on his forehead.

"Who are you? We Konoha ninjas are on a mission. If it's not necessary, please don't delay our mission. Unless you want to oppose Konoha."

Even though he knew he was no match for them, Sarutobi still said those words.

This person's attitude must be clarified.

Earth Escape Technique: Earth Spikes

Uchiha Kiyoshi made his move without warning.

Large spiky burrs pierced the ground, causing serious injuries to the four people.

"Hiss, even a C-grade earth spike can produce such an effect."

Sarutobi was being scratched by earth spikes and was extremely shocked by Uchiha Kiyoshi's earth spike technique.

The effect of an earth spike technique was not necessarily weaker than his own trump card.

A Kage-level powerhouse!

Such a thought popped into Sarutobi's mind.

At the same time, I became even more curious about the other person's identity.

A Kage-level powerhouse with absolutely no information.

Who is he?

"Who exactly are you? And what did you mean just now? Do you really want to be an enemy of Konoha?"

"Well, I just don't like being threatened."

Uchiha Kiyoshi replied nonchalantly.

Moreover, he really had no good feelings towards the Sarutobi clan.

Kiyoshi's only connection to the Sarutobi clan was through Saku Sarutobi. However, after Saku Sarutobi's death, the Sarutobi clan showed no ambition and followed the Third Hokage's lead. Kiyoshi's attitude towards the Sarutobi clan naturally soured. Coupled with the Third Hokage's repeated favoritism, Kiyoshi harbored resentment towards the Third Hokage and consequently developed even less affection for the Sarutobi clan.

Furthermore, what does it mean to be an enemy of Konoha?

Threat?

Uchiha Kiyoshi turned his gaze to Kakashi.

"Your actions just now have disappointed me greatly. After all, Konoha's White Fang's behavior is admirable, but as his son, your actions are completely contrary to his."

"You are very talented, but you are not good at being a person or a ninja."

After saying that, Uchiha Kiyoshi did not linger and used the Body Flicker Technique to leave the scene.

Uchiha Kiyoshi was gone, but his words lingered in the ears of the four people present, with Kakashi feeling them the most deeply.

The White Fang incident had already begun circulating in Konoha not long ago. It was said that White Fang failed his mission in order to save his comrades, which violated the principle of putting ninja missions first.

With some people adding fuel to the fire, many people condemned White Fang's behavior, including Kakashi's two companions.

A ninja's primary role is to fulfill missions.

Missions are a ninja's job, a ninja's life. No matter the reason, if a mission that was originally a sure thing fails, it is a sin.

Under their influence, young Kakashi also became dissatisfied with his father's behavior.

During the battle just now, he completely disregarded the safety of his comrades, and did everything he could to hold off the special Jonin on the other side.

However, Uchiha Kiyoshi's words did indeed stir up a sense of guilt in Kakashi's heart.

"Was I wrong? Was my father's approach the right one?"

Kakashi was confused.

On the other hand, Uchiha Kiyoshi completely disregarded the confusion his actions would cause Kakashi.

Anyway, I felt great after teaching the other person a lesson.

Of course, this is all just talk.

Uchiha Kiyoshi knew very well that Kakashi had hardly ever been to the Ninja Academy and had a very limited understanding of the concept of comrades, which was why he was in this situation. Turning the tide was not something he could do with just a few words.

"It still takes Obito to change Kakashi's mindset."

"However, teaching Kakashi a lesson seems to have been quite effective."

Very cool!

I'm friends with his dad, so I'm his elder and have every right to discipline him!

"Besides, I... have gone to great lengths to save his father, so what's wrong with teaching him a lesson?"

Chapter 168 Taking Action

Uchiha Kiyoshi appeared in the Land of Fire, taking a good break from the tension he had been building up over three years of continuous training.

After the Kakashi incident, Uchiha Kiyoshi never appeared in the battles between Konoha ninjas and Kumogakure ninjas again.

However, Uchiha Kiyoshi's appearance still brought changes to Konoha.

The Third Hokage was caught off guard by a completely unfamiliar Kage-level powerhouse.

Even on Konoha's mission list, several missions appeared to investigate Uchiha Kiyoshi, some requiring investigation into his whereabouts and others into his identity.

However, Kiyoshi Uchiha was unaware of this. Hikaru, on the other hand, did notice the situation, but since he didn't think it was important, he didn't send a separate message to the main body.

Two months passed in the blink of an eye.

Uchiha Kiyoshi has had a great time traveling these past two months, but some people are having a tough time.

Sakumo Hatake, a hero who made great contributions in the Second Shinobi World War, gradually became a disgrace to the ninjas in the mouths of the villagers of Konoha over the past two months.

"Didn't we learn to cherish our comrades when we were in the Ninja Academy?"

why?

Why is it that now, in their mouths, even their comrades are less important than the mission?

Sakumo Hatake suffered immensely during those two months, and he lost a lot of weight.

In the ninja world, once ninjas reach a certain level of strength, they develop their own ninja way. Jiraiya, Naruto, and White Fang all have their own ninja way.

The Way of the Ninja is a summary of one's own training, a general outline of a ninja's lifelong practice.

According to Uchiha Kiyoshi's theory, every ninja's insights during training are recorded in their soul along with spiritual energy, forming their own path. The core of this path is the ninja way.

The Way of the Ninja is the driving force behind a ninja's training and the core of a ninja's lifelong understanding.

With the Way of the Ninja as its core, one integrates the various qualities and insights gained from one's cultivation to form a unique Great Way.

Of course, these are all explanations that Uchiha Kiyoshi summarized based on his previous life, for ease of understanding.

Most ninjas realize their ninja way before reaching the Kage level, usually during their elite Jonin stage. Of course, some ninjas realize their ninja way during their Chunin or Genin stage.

As a Kage-level ninja, Uchiha Kiyoshi naturally had his own ninja way.

That is the pursuit of truth and freedom.

The pursuit of truth was established after the enlightenment following Nawaki's death, while freedom was added after leaving Konoha.

For White Fang, his ninja way is about partners and protecting his comrades.

Even while carrying out numerous assassination missions in the dark, constantly teetering between life and death, Hatake Sakumo still couldn't bring himself to be ruthless and abandon his comrades, which shows how firm his beliefs were.

It's important to know that Shizuru Aburame wasn't Sakumo Hatake's usual partner; they had only been in the team for less than six months.
