"Watch out!" The second male lead's father was still intently watching the situation inside the smoke when he heard a voice that sounded like his own brother.

The second male lead's father looked back in the direction of the sound and saw that the ten finger bones of a Kaguya clan member were less than a meter away from his head. There was no way to avoid it.

"Puff puff!"

Just as the finger bones were about to pierce his head, a figure appeared in front of him and used his body to block the ten finger bones. This figure was also riddled with holes.

"Chun!" The second male lead's father cried out in grief and indignation after realizing that the person who was acting as his human shield was his brother, whom he suspected was his own brother.

"Damn it!" Jiraiya heard the grief-stricken voice of the second male lead's father and looked over. He saw that Xiaochun was covered in blood and being held by the second male lead's father, his life hanging in the balance. This was it. If that old woman Xiaochun found out, she would definitely kill him. This was her godson!

"Bunta, stall for time!" Jiraiya shouted at Bunta, summoning Bunta's parents.

"Cough! Cough! Fugaku, from now on... the family will depend on you, cough! Cough!... For our dream... I'm so sorry... We promised to help... the family and the village... for peace..." Little Haru, covered in blood, looked at the second male lead's father and said, her voice growing softer and softer until she stopped breathing before she could finish speaking.

"Haru! Ah! Bastard!" The second male lead's father held Little Haru's corpse, his face covered in tears. He turned around and glared murderously at the Kaguya clansman who had just ambushed him. The three tomoe in his Sharingan began to spin faster and faster, eventually forming a new pattern. Because it was night and a great battle was taking place, no one noticed the second male lead's father's eyes except for the Kaguya clansman he was staring at.

"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"

The second male lead's father used a B-rank fire jutsu on the Kaguya clan member who was shocked by the change in his eyes. Although it was a B-rank ninjutsu, its power was greater than that of an A-rank ninjutsu!

Before the Kaguya clan members could even recover from their shock, they were struck by the massive fireball and burned to ashes! The surrounding Kaguya clan members were also affected by the massive fire blast, resulting in either death or serious injury!

"Cough cough! Bastard!" Kaguya, who had just recovered from the fire dragon's song from the second male lead's father, was in a sorry state, with most of the bones covering her body gone. Seeing her people being burned to death, she grew bone spikes again and charged at the second male lead's father with red eyes.

"Fire Release: Great Fire Dragon Technique!"

"Amaterasu!"

The second male lead's father first used a powerful Fire Dragon attack as cover against the charging Kaguya leader, then unleashed a deadly Amaterasu.

"Ah! Ah!"

Kaguya, the leader, was quite confident in his bone spikes and didn't take the Great Fire Dragon seriously. After colliding with the dragon, he was hit by the black flames behind it. The black flames burned continuously on his body. Kaguya desperately rolled on the ground trying to extinguish the black flames, but it was no use. The black flames burned brighter and brighter on his body, and his bones were burned to ashes.

"Chieftain!"

"Chieftain!"

"Don't come any closer! Everyone retreat, back to the village!"

The members of the Kaguya clan rushed over to help their leader put out the fire, but he stopped them. When he rushed over, he had already seen the eyes of the second male lead's father. They were very different from the three-tomoe Sharingan. According to the clan records, only Madara Uchiha had such eyes. He couldn't let his clan members come to their deaths. He should die in this war. That should be enough.

The Kaguya clan members were stopped by the leader and could only watch helplessly as he was burned to death by black flames.

"Chieftain!"

"Chieftain!"

"Obey the clan leader's orders, return to the village!" A Kaguya clansman shouted to his clansmen, his face streaked with tears.

After burning Kaguya's leader to death, the second male lead's father also turned off his kaleidoscope, wiped the blood from one of his eyes, and carried the body, which was suspected to be his brother's, back to the main camp.

After seeing Kaguya's leader killed, Hozuki felt uneasy looking at Jiraiya with his eyes closed and the two little toads on his body. Although he didn't know what Jiraiya was doing, since the Kaguya clan had retreated, he couldn't stay here and fight Konoha head-on.

"retreat!"

The Hozuki leader and the Minazuki leader, who was still playing games with Hyuga Hiashi, exchanged glances and ordered a retreat, indicating that they would fight again another day.

Jiraiya nearly coughed up blood. "Damn it, I'm still preparing my ultimate move, why are you all retreating!"

"...Let's go back, everyone's gone." The female toad on Jiraiya's shoulder ignored Jiraiya's purple face and said to the male toad.

"Hmm! Little Jiraiya, we'll be going now, we haven't had dinner yet." The toad also ignored Jiraiya's purple face.

"boom!"

The two little toads vanished at the same time. They were truly fed up with Jiraiya. Jiraiya's half-baked Sage Mode required their assistance, but now that he had retreated, Jiraiya hadn't even managed to unleash his ultimate attack. How embarrassing! How embarrassing!

"I'm going back too!"

"boom!"

Social Wen also ignored Jiraiya's purple face and returned to Toad Mountain. This time it was really embarrassing. He helped you stall until the other side retreated, but you still hadn't managed to unleash your ultimate move.

...........

"Chieftain!"

"Chieftain!"

The second male lead's father carried the body, which was suspected to be his brother's, all the way back. His clansmen followed him one after another. After returning to Konoha's camp, the second male lead's father laid Xiaoxiaochun's body flat in his tent, knelt down beside Xiaoxiaochun's body, and silently shed tears.

Now he finally believed the rumors of his clan: the Uchiha's eyes were ominous eyes, and his nominal biological father had acted as a human shield for him, allowing him to awaken the three-tomoe Sharingan.

Now, his suspected brother is also trying to save him, acting as a human shield and allowing him to activate the Kaleidoscope. However, he would rather give up the Kaleidoscope in exchange for the life of his suspected brother.

Moreover, he knew very well that if the three elders in his family found out that he had activated the Kaleidoscope, they might cause some trouble, which would make it even more difficult to fulfill his brother's dying wish. So, after killing Kaguya's leader, he immediately turned off the Kaleidoscope and wiped away the bloodstains so that no one would know.

After Jiraiya led the Konoha ninjas back to the camp, he rushed over to the Uchiha side and saw the second male lead's father and the Uchiha clan members kneeling in front of Jasmine's body.

294. Stopping Water and Opening Eyes

"Alas! Uchiha clan leader, my condolences!" Jiraiya sighed as he looked at Jasmine's blood-covered corpse. After the war, he could no longer stay in the village.

It doesn't matter if one Uchiha clansman dies, but it's different for Little Haru. He's the son of the Hokage's former best friend, and Koharu Utatane's godson. To protect him, even Shanks was sent over here first.

As a result, he died shortly after taking care of the child. Fortunately, the child left behind an heir, otherwise, the old woman Xiaochun would have caused chaos in the village. It seems that he will have to lay low for a while after the war ends.

"Ah! Thank you, Lord Jiraiya!" The second male lead's father said without even looking up. His brother of many years had died protecting him, and he had no time to joke around with Jiraiya.

"Sigh!" Jiraiya sighed and walked out of the tent. He could understand the feelings of the second male lead's father, but now he still had to report to the village. It wasn't just about Jasmine's matter; the Mist Ninja had been outmaneuvered this time, and the Kaguya clan also needed to be reported back to the Land of Water. Apart from the deaths of Jasmine and the Kaguya clan's leader, the losses in this great battle weren't too great. The Hyuga and Uchiha clans didn't suffer any major casualties, and the Mist Ninja clan was about the same.

........

In the Hokage's office, Hiruzen Sarutobi sat in a chair, rubbing his temples, feeling extremely agitated.

It's been a day since he received the information from Jiraiya through the little toad. After seeing the scene of Jasmine's death, he felt dizzy. His former best friend only had this one son, and he's dead just like that! What's worse, he was Jasmine's precious son! Doesn't she know how troublesome it is for women during menopause, especially a woman who's been strong-willed since childhood? Her old lover's son, the godson she raised, is dead. No wonder she'll cause chaos in the Hokage Building!

"boom!"

"Hiruzen! Is it true? Has Koharu already...?" Sure enough, Hiruzen Sarutobi's headache happened. This was the first time in so many years that his friend had banged on his door. Trouble was brewing.

"Yes! Jiraiya's letter says he died protecting Fugaku Uchiha. My condolences!" Hiruzen Sarutobi took a few deep drags on his pipe and said sadly.

"Phew! I understand..." Koharu Utatane didn't fly into a rage as Hiruzen Sarutobi had imagined. Instead, she said calmly and walked out of the Hokage Building.

"Xiaochun, are you alright?" If Hiruzen Sarutobi wasn't worried even if she were furious, he would be worried when his friend just said a few words and then didn't react. "Either you explode in silence or you die in silence"—that's a wise saying.

"I'm fine. I knew this day would come after he went to the battlefield. Sigh! I didn't expect that even though he survived World War II, he couldn't escape this one." Koharu Tsurugi was heartbroken.

She didn't know how to tell Zhishui about this. Even though the seven-year-old child was very mature from a young age, she couldn't bear to tell a seven-year-old that his father had passed away.

"This is war, so we must bring peace to the ninja world as soon as possible," Hiruzen Sarutobi said.

.......

After school in the afternoon, Shisui returned to the Uchiha clan. He had grown up with Koharu Uchiha since he was a child, and only returned to the Uchiha clan to live with his parents when he was older. This time, Koharu went to the battlefield, so Koharu Uchiha took him back to prevent the dark people of the Uchiha clan from brainwashing Shisui.

"Shisui is out of school, and he's grown taller again!"

"Shisui is out of school!"

As he entered the Uchiha clan's residence, he was greeted by people all along the way, something he would never see in the Uchiha clan.

"Brother Zhishui, our ball flew into the tree, can you help us knock it down?" Several little children ran up to Zhishui and said pitifully.

"Really? Where is it? Let me go see." Zhishui squatted down and pinched the cheek of a little baby.

"It's right there!" the little baby pointed to a big tree not far away.

"Wait a minute!" Shisui looked at the small ball on the tree, grabbed a handful of pebbles beside him, and waved his hand with the technique of Uchiha shuriken.

Several small stones collided several times in the air, changing direction before hitting the small ball on the tree and knocking it down.

The members of the Utatane clan, who had just greeted Shisui in the distance, were completely dumbfounded. "What the hell? Can someone really show off like this? Is a seven-year-old already this flamboyant? Pebbles and shuriken have different shapes! Dude!"

"Wow! Brother Zhishui is so amazing!!" Although the group of little kids didn't understand, they loved watching the pebble hit another pebble and then bend around to knock their ball down.

"Hehe! Let's play quickly," Zhishui laughed.

"Shisui is getting more and more amazing. There aren't many people in your Uchiha clan who can do this kind of technique!" The Utatane clan member who had been thoroughly impressed walked over.

"I don't know either!" Shisui said, scratching the back of his head.

"Shisui, haven't you gone back yet? Lord Koharu asked me to bring you back." Just as Shisui finished speaking, someone ran up to him and said this.

"Okay, Kawakami-nii, I'm off now." Shisui waved to the Utatane clan member who had been thoroughly amused by Shisui's display of affection.

.........

"Grandma Xiaochun, what happened?" When she returned to Xiaochun's courtyard, she saw Xiaochun sitting in the hall with a very bad expression and red and swollen eyes, obviously having just cried. She asked anxiously.

"...Shisui, your father..." Koharu, turning to the next room, looked at the little boy Shisui looking at her nervously, and she really couldn't bring herself to speak.

"What happened to my father?...Is he dead?" Shisui looked at Koharu Utatane's expression and, being as clever as he was, immediately guessed the answer.

"Sigh!" Koharu patted Shisui's head. This child was practically a second Kagami—smart, talented, and even looked exactly the same. She had only just begun to tell the story before she had already guessed the ending.

"Grandma Xiaochun, don't be sad. Father in heaven wouldn't want to see you so upset," Zhishui comforted her in return.

"Good girl! Go back to your room and rest first! I'll call you when it's time to eat." Seeing that Zhi Shui's eyes were brimming with tears, Xiao Chun, who was turning over to the dormitory, comforted her instead.

"Okay! I'll go back to my room first." After saying that, Zhishui left the hall and returned to her room. She closed the door, leaned against it, squatted down, hugged her knees, and tears streamed down her face.

He closed his eyes, trying his best not to make a sound that would be heard by Koharu in the dormitory. His two eyeballs started rolling around under his eyelids. Suddenly, his eyes stung. When Shisui opened his eyes again, the monitor had turned red, and two small tomoe appeared in his pupils.

In the Hokage's office, Hiruzen Sarutobi saw this scene through the crystal ball and was completely frozen in place. "Damn, he opened his Sharingan with two tomoe already? Is my ex-boyfriend's grandson that awesome?!"

295. Hiruzen Sarutobi, covered in chrysanthemums

Originally, Hiruzen Sarutobi was worried that his former best friend's grandson might do something rash, so he used a crystal ball to observe how Shisui was doing. When he saw Shisui comforting Koharu Utatane, Hiruzen Sarutobi was very pleased. He thought, "He truly is the grandson of my former best friend."

When Shisui returned to his room and silently shed tears, Hiruzen Sarutobi was also heartbroken. To have to endure the pain of losing a loved one at such a young age... And when Shisui opened his eyes again, Hiruzen was utterly shocked! Damn, at seven years old, he already had two tomoe! Even more impressive than the legendary Madara! If I had a son like that, what would it matter if he died a few more times?!

Hiruzen Sarutobi really wants to fuck a dog! When his former buddy was still alive, he couldn't match him in picking up girls, and his son's talent was on par with his. Although his grandson hasn't appeared yet, he knows he can't compare! In the hundreds of years of Uchiha history, it's already brutal enough that Madara awakened his Sharingan at the age of eight. Now his former buddy's grandson is even more brutal, awakening his Sharingan at the age of seven with two tomoe right away. Does he have to be so arrogant?!

"Someone! Notify Utatane Koharu and Uchiha Shisui to come here." Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately realized that he had to win over these two natural-born prodigies. Although he had been raised by Utatane Koharu since childhood, her mindset was still not educated enough. He had to come in person, with his partner just assisting.

"Is this the Sharingan? If so, I'd rather not have it!" Shisui opened his eyes and felt that something was different about his surroundings. It was as if his eyes could see very clearly. He walked to the mirror to look at his eyes and saw a pair of red pupils with two small tomoe inside. Thinking that these eyes were a result of his father's death, he began to feel sad and upset again.

"Shisui! Come with me to the Hokage Building, Hiruzen has something to say..." Koharu Utatane had just received a message from the Anbu saying that her friend needed to see her and her godchild. As soon as she entered her godchild's room, she saw those double-tomoe eyes, and swallowed the words she was about to say, staring at her godchild in shock.

"Grandma Xiaochun?" Shisui saw Xiaochun looking at her in shock as she turned to the next room and called out softly.
