Uchiha: Starting from Imprisonment of Tobirama

This explains the telescope technique of the third generation, right?

It seems that Sarutobi Hiruzen's family relationship is not harmonious...

Senju Tobirama frowned. Qingshui had just told him that Sarutobi Asuma was Sarutobi Hiruzen's youngest son.

So, what is going on?

The Hokage's son came to look for an Uchiha genius, and he came to such a secluded corner, and his tone showed no respect for Sarutobi Hiruzen...

"How come this monkey can't even be a father?" Senju Tobirama shook his head, looking disappointed in him.

"No, you don't even have a partner, so don't blame him for not being a father..."

Qingshui quietly argued for Sarutobi Hiruzen, then signaled to Asuma with his eyes that he could start asking questions.

Asuma took a deep breath and expressed his inner confusion: "Qingshui-kun, can you tell me what the Will of Fire is?"

"I know that Qingshui-kun's Will of Fire score is very high, but do you really believe in the Will of Fire? If so, why do you choose to believe in it?"

"Please give me an answer, Qingshui-kun!"

Chapter 46 A strange pair, looking at Konoha together

Qing Shui looked at the extremely serious Sarutobi Asuma, sighed, and did not directly answer his question, but asked back:

"Asuma-kun, what is the real confusion in your heart?"

Qingshui sat down under a rock, motioned Asuma to sit next to him, and looked out at the bustling Konoha Village not far away.

"Your father is the current Sandaime Hokage of the Hidden Leaf Village, and the designated successor of the Second Hokage. You grew up next to him, and you should have been influenced by the will of fire. Why do you ask such a question?"

Asuma slowly sat down next to Qingshui. The prosperity he saw seemed so empty in his perspective.

"Qing Shui-kun, it is precisely because I am the son of the Third Hokage that I have doubts about the Will of Fire..."

Asuma smiled bitterly, pointed at the Uchiha clan emblem on the corner of Qingshui's clothes, and said self-deprecatingly:

"Don't be afraid of you laughing at me, Qingshui-kun. If you were not from the Uchiha clan, even if you are so proficient in the Will of Fire, I would not dare to come to you."

"If I asked other people the questions I just mentioned, my father would know everything I said the next day, and then he would either scold me severely or beat me up."

Qing Shui laughed: "You are an honest man, Asuma."

"That's right. The Uchiha clan is in such an awkward position in Konoha right now. Even if I could gain your father's favor, I would not risk telling him about this. After all, it would be considered as sowing discord between you and your son."

Asuma nodded awkwardly.

Qing Shui patted his shoulder, stared at him and said: "It has nothing to do with Uchiha and Konoha..."

"Asuma, I promise you that no one else will know what you said today. I swear on the honor of the Uchiha clan."

Hearing this, Asuma suddenly became serious: "Thank you, Qingshui-kun."

Swearing on the honor of the family is a very reliable guarantee for a thousand-year-old ninja clan like the Uchiha.

But after hearing this, Senju Tobirama snorted coldly.

If it was any other Uchiha who said something like this, he would probably believe it a little bit...

But if the person who took the oath was Qingshui, Senju Tobirama felt that the credibility of it was about the same as the strength of his oath using the glory of the Senju clan. In short, it can be said that the bottom line is very flexible.

"Hey, did I accidentally scold myself..." Senju Tobirama was stunned and realized his blind spot.

"Qing Shui-kun, it is precisely because my father is the Hokage and my brother is the head of the Anbu that I can see and hear many things in this village that others cannot see..."

Asuma pulled out a crumpled cigarette from his pocket, lit it skillfully, took a deep puff, and said vaguely, "Do you know the root?"

"That is a detachment of the Anbu, under the control of the Hokage's assistant, Danzo Shimura. I once had several friends, some of whom were born as commoners, and some were born as ninjas, but they were all later chosen by the Root."

Qing Shui nodded: "Isn't it a good thing to be chosen by the Anbu?"

Asuma Sarutobi exhaled a puff of smoke:

"A good thing? They disappeared from Konoha. I asked their elders, but they said they were dead. Their eyes were filled with hatred and unwillingness."

"I don't think that my friends want to join the so-called Root. Their dream was to become a Hokage..."

Qingshui remained silent and nodded slowly.

This is indeed Shimura Danzo's style. He kidnapped the geniuses he valued and brainwashed them when they were young to make them his tools.

Not only the civilian ninjas, but even the ninja clans found it difficult to resist Shimura Danzo's demands. Even the Yamanaka clan, who were closely attached to Sarutobi Hiruzen, had to contribute their clan's talents to assist the Hokage.

When he heard the name of Shimura Danzo, Senju Tobirama's heart moved and his face gradually became gloomy. No one knew what he was thinking.

"Not only that, Qing Shui-kun, as an Uchiha, you should have heard of Wood Release, right?"

Asuma's words became bolder as he seemed to have received Qing Shui's serious oath:

"Orochimaru, Shimura Danzo and my father once conducted human experiments for Konoha in order to replicate the Wood Release of the First Generation."

"At the beginning, this project was official and formal. Many members of the Senju clan volunteered to sign up and actively cooperated with this research. Even many civilian ninjas voluntarily joined in."

Qing Shui waved his hand and said slowly:

"Asuma, there is nothing wrong with human experiments. The village and your father are also doing this to strengthen the village. It does not violate the Will of Fire. After all, it is voluntary."

Asuma shook his head slowly:

"Later, the experiment was stopped. I don't know the specific reason, but I heard that the success rate was too low and many ninjas were killed or injured."

Qing Shui nodded in understanding: "You may not get rewards for your efforts, Asuma."

"The power of the first Hokage is so tempting that any Hokage would want to replicate Konoha's former glory. It's just that they didn't succeed, which doesn't mean anything."

Asuma sighed heavily, "Qingshui-kun, how could I not understand what you said?"

"But after the experiment was stopped, some of the ninjas with the Senju bloodline that I remembered disappeared inexplicably in Konoha. Where do you think they went..."

"Did they go to the Root, or did they continue to sacrifice in this secret experiment? I want to know, did those ninjas who disappeared later volunteer?"

"And the blackmail at the root and the secret human experiments are just the tip of the iceberg."

"Are these all in line with the Will of Fire?"

Qing Shui narrowed his eyes, patted Asuma's shoulder, and said slowly: "So, what really confuses you is..."

"On weekdays, the will of fire that you learned in the ninja school is so bright and righteous, without a trace of dirt and flaws."

"Because of your family and background, you have witnessed the darkness buried deep in the village. This conflicts with the Will of Fire that most Konoha ninjas have learned, and makes it even more difficult for you to understand what the Will of Fire is."

Asuma nodded vigorously. Qingshui's summary touched his heart.

If you have never seen the light, you can endure the darkness.

Asuma had seen darkness and had deep-seated doubts about the light before him.

As a young man with independent thinking, Asma has his own ideals, but his background has brought him a fragmented information gap, making him feel extremely confused and painful.

"Asuma, give me one..." Qingshui did not answer Asuma's question, but asked him for a cigarette.

Asuma nodded silently, lighting a fire for Qingshui and relighting one for himself.

Son of the Hokage and the Uchiha genius.

This strange pair sat on the top of the mountain, looking out at the hustle and bustle of Konoha, smoking in silence.

At this moment, it seems that some kind of bond has been formed...

Chapter 47: The high ground of public opinion needs to be protected, otherwise it will be lost to the enemy

Qingshui and Asuma smoked in silence, staring at Konoha in the distance.

Asma puffed very hard, as if he wanted to exhale the depression in his heart with every puff, and there was a frown on his brow.

Qingshui let the cigarette in his hand burn. The Asuma in front of him reminded him of a famous Uchiha.

His name is Uchiha Itachi...

But right now, he is probably still in Uchiha Mikoto's belly...

The four-year-old Uchiha Itachi was brought to the battlefield by Uchiha Fugaku. From then on, he began to think about the meaning of life and peace.

After Uchiha Itachi was asked to be a double agent, he became even more obsessed with the Will of Fire and believed that the Uchiha clan was an evil clan. In the end, he wielded the butcher knife against his clansmen, lover, and parents.

Simply put, he is a paranoid little devil who was brainwashed by his enemies after being provoked and became a devil who doesn't recognize any relatives.

Asuma and Uchiha Itachi are very similar in some ways.

Although Sarutobi Hiruzen was not as abstract as Uchiha Fugaku, he did not do his job well, allowing the smart and careful Asuma to smell the dark side of the village from various clues and question his own origins.

All I can say is that for a ninja who has only learned how to kill people since childhood, his natural mission is to make a good sword.

If a paranoid knife starts to think, it is hard to say whether it will cut the enemy or the friendly forces...

After all, what correct thing can a knife think?

In the ninja world, there are only a handful of ninjas with normal minds. Not only the Uchiha clan, but most ninjas are terribly paranoid.

As for Uchiha Itachi, when he was young, he came into contact with Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo and betrayed the Uchiha clan.

Asuma was well protected because of his identity as the son of the Third Hokage, but he wandered around and wasted his youth.

But now it's different, Asuma has found Qingshui.

Qingshui can be a sharp knife, but can also be the one holding the knife...

"Asuma, since you don't trust the Will of Fire so much and you still have doubts about the village, why did you come to me?"

Qing Shui stared at the Hokage Rock in the distance, looked at Senju Tobirama above, and said slowly:

"Don't you think that since I am proficient in the Will of Fire, I should be further away from you?"

Asuma shook his head, a look of reminiscence in his eyes:

"I don't think the Will of Fire is bad... I just think that the people who interpret the Will of Fire now are too hypocritical. What they say and what they do are completely different."

"Qingshui, can I call you that?"

After receiving Qing Shui's affirmation, Asuma seemed to be in a better mood and continued:

"In my eyes, you are a true practitioner of the Will of Fire. You are strong, humble, and helpful. Even though you are an Uchiha, your existence and story inspire many classmates."

"Especially, when I saw you helping Inada Kojiro that day, I couldn't help but want to talk to you."
