Naruto: My Ninjutsu is mediocre

He found that Hatake Sakumo seemed a little afraid of Nara Hideyuki. At first, he thought there was a conflict between the new and old employees, but he soon realized that Hatake Sakumo's fear of Nara Hideyuki seemed to be the same fear that a child has of his parents.

This is interesting.

…………

On the coast of the East China Sea, on a small island, this is where the Uzumaki clan lives.

At this time, the head of the Uzumaki clan was an old man with long white hair and a white beard, named Uzumaki Ashina.

The person who took on the important task of marrying Hashirama Senju was the clan's talented female ninja, Uzumaki Mito, who had just turned sixteen... Yes, this was also a task.

At this stage, Uzumaki Mito married Senju Hashirama not so much as a wife, but rather as a "warrior".

Although the Uzumaki are distant relatives of the Senju and the two sides have been friends for generations, due to the current environment in the ninja world, Uzumaki Mito has actually had little contact with Senju Hashirama.

Therefore, the union between the two parties is actually an evil arranged marriage.

However, Uzumaki Mito had a good impression of Hashirama Senju. Although there was no love between the two of them, at least she did not hate Hashirama, and even had a certain degree of favorability towards him... After all, Hashirama had been a young genius since he was a child.

It was precisely because they were far apart that Uzumaki Mito had never seen Hashirama's funny side. This was all a case of distance creating beauty.

During this period of time, Uzumaki Mito's long hair was almost turning black with red color. With such a large amount of chakra... No wonder it was as easy for the couple to kill the Nine-Tails as it was to kill their son.

Uzumaki Ashina was holding a candle, and he was bringing Uzumaki Mito with him, and behind Mito was Uzumaki Ruri, whom Yuzhen had seen before.

The group continued to walk down a dark passage, and soon entered a secret room.

Uzumaki Ashina kept making hand seals along the way, and it was obvious that the secret room was protected by a powerful barrier.

After entering the secret room, the old patriarch secretly triggered a mechanism, and a stone slab rose from the center of the secret room...

Well, it’s a stone slab again. Their Uzumaki clan also has stone slabs, and naturally there are secret codes written on the stone slabs.

"Mito, after I die you will be the head of the Uzumaki clan, so you must take note of what I am about to say."

After seeing Uzumaki Mito nod, the old patriarch turned his attention to Uzumaki Ruri.

"Ruri, you're Mito's backup. If anything happens to Mito, you'll be the clan leader, so you need to listen carefully as well."

Xuanwo Liuli was so angry that she almost rushed over to pull out the old patriarch's beard... Damn it, backup this and backup that, older single women have no human rights, right?

"Why are you smiling so frivolously? Have you remembered what I said?" The old patriarch was very serious. He couldn't make any jokes at this time.

"remember."

Being stared at by the calm gaze of the old patriarch, Xuanwo Liuli didn't dare to act rashly again.

"Lord Ashina, if I become the successor to the clan leader, does that mean that the Uzumaki and Senju clans will completely merge?" Uzumaki Mito immediately understood some of the meaning behind the old clan leader's words.

The old patriarch nodded and said:

"This is an inevitable trend. If we, the Uzumaki clan, don't want to be destroyed, it is necessary to form a ninja village with the Senju as the main force."

"The current Senju is not trustworthy, right?" Uzumaki Ruri interrupted.

"What I'm saying is that from now on, we Uzumaki will follow not the Senju of Butsuma, but the Senju of Hashirama."

"That's good, it means you, the clan leader, are not senile yet."

The three of them stood in front of the dark stone slabs, and Uzumaki Liuli immediately changed the subject.

"Old Patriarch, what is written here?"

Except for Uzumaki Ashina, neither of the two young men could recognize the words on the slate.

The old patriarch pointed at the stone slab and read out the following words:

"Ignited by the Bright Fire"

“Respite for those who bleed”

"A thousand years of sorrow begins to rotate"

"The Whirlpool Clan"

"By engraving the prayer with your true name"

"Disaster is coming"

"Only you"

"Only then can we break through"

"The twenty-first day of Bingweiwei"

"End of Mission"

"Restore Itself"

"..."

"Where is the last sentence? Why was the last sentence erased?" Xuanwo Liuli looked at the scratches on the stone slab and felt a little puzzled. Isn't it an heirloom? How could it be destroyed?

"You don't need to know the last sentence for now."

"Lord Ashina, this proverb is so confusing. Even after your interpretation, I still cannot understand its true meaning."

What kind of mission is this? It’s such a mess. Uzumaki Mito just feels that it has no practical content.

"You just need to remember these for now. As for the specific meaning, I will explain them to you one by one before I die."

"...6."

If Yu Zhen was here, he would definitely guess that someone had given the task of sealing Black Zetsu to the Uzumaki clan.

After all, this was all he could think of when it came to things like the Millennium Mission.

However, Black Zetsu was not sealed.

Instead, the Whirlpool clan was exterminated.

Chapter 148 Lightning flash

"Sasuke-sama, long time no see."

When Yuzhen led the team to the Senju clan village, he found that Sarutobi Sasuke was acting as a greeter... It was a very interesting attitude to let someone who was not from the Senju clan do this kind of work.

Anyway, Sarutobi Sasuke is famous and has a high status, so no one thinks it's strange.

"Hello, Master Hashirama, welcome to Master Hashirama's wedding. Please follow me."

Sarutobi Sasuke personally led Yuzhen to the wedding venue. When passing by a certain location, he stopped and said to Yuzhen:

"If you have any gifts, please place them here and register them."

He had to say this because Yuzhen and the others had already taken the gift out of the sealed scroll and covered it with red cloth and red flowers, and it was carried by Nara Hideyuki and Hatake Sakumo.

What? Why not put the gift in a gift box? Nonsense, who would hide a gift like that? If he wasn't worried about appearing too nouveau riche and being disliked, Yu Zhen would have wanted to carry the gift around Senju Village like a triumphant fisherman returning home.

"Yes, Master Yuzhen, welcome back to the Senju clan."

The ninjas who were responsible for registering, sorting and organizing the gifts also seemed very happy after seeing Yuzhen.

"Master Yuzhen, what valuable gift have you brought?"

Yuzhen kept smiling and said:

"Everyone has worked hard. This small gift is not enough to show my respect. It cannot express my blessing to Master Hashirama."

The word "precious" is correct, because Yuzhen's gift is indeed expensive and heavy.

Nara Hideyuki and Hatake Sakumo carried the gift in front of the Senju Ninja. Perhaps because Hideyuki was a weak person, when he put down the gift, he was clumsy and flustered, and made mistakes in the chaos, and accidentally pulled off the red flower covering the gift.

"I……"

Yu Zhen felt that the room was full of water pumps in surge, not pumping water but only pumping air.

"Master Yuzhen, you...this...isn't it too precious?"

"After all, our Kawagen Country is located in a remote area, and apart from this, we don't have much to show for it. My friendship with Lord Hashirama and Lord Tobirama goes without saying. This also represents the admiration and appreciation that our Lord Shimizu Kisuke has for the Senju Clan and Lord Hashirama..."

"The Daimyo-sama's personal letter, please be sure to deliver it to Hashirama-sama later."

Yu Zhen is doing his best to help Shimizu Jiyou with his work. The purpose of throwing out such a big gold brick is definitely not just to show off wealth.

As the word means, this is really a "stepping stone".

After a brief greeting here, Sarutobi Sasuke led the group to the wedding venue again.

The gold bricks placed in front of several Thousand Hand Ninjas made their spirits become high... It's strange, this thing can't be eaten or drunk, it's just golden and heavy, but for some reason it always makes people's heart beat faster.

"Master Yuzhen is indeed a close friend of Masters Hashirama and Master Tobirama. The gift he presented is truly extraordinary."

"Yes, a gold brick has more visual impact than a small piece of the same weight."

"To avoid vulgarity, Master Yuzhen even specially carved something on it... Uh, what is this etching?"

The surface of the gold brick is incised with a primitive rock painting-style painting, featuring a man, a woman, and a group of children. Since it's a replica of a rock painting, the men and women in the paintings, depicting daily life, fishing, and hunting, are rarely clothed. Where would primitive people get their clothes? Animal hides wouldn't be easy to work with, right?

"Well, the meaning is very good."

"Well, the artistic attainments are very high."

From the perspective of the entire clan, marriage is for the continuation of the race. How to continue the race? Of course, it depends on sacred reproduction.

Several people tried to keep a straight face, thinking that they must put this gift in the most conspicuous place.

After Yuzhen arrived at the venue, Sarutobi Sasuke wanted to lead them to the VIP seats in the front, but Yuzhen declined and just found a seat on the periphery.

"It doesn't seem like a traditional wedding. I thought the scene of two ancient ninja clans marrying each other would be very old-fashioned."

After Nara Hideyuki sat down, he observed the situation around him and said.

"It's normal. It's wartime after all... The grand scale of this wedding and the simple process are consistent with my understanding." Yu Zhen didn't care.

In this era, who would bother to hold an ancient wedding ceremony? All they need to do is wait for Hashirama Senju and Mito Uzumaki to show up at the venue. Everyone can do what they want with the rest of the time. They can talk if they want to, or skip around if they want to.

At this time, a Thousand Hands Ninja passed by Yu Zhen and cleverly concealed it from the sight of others and put a note into Yu Zhen's hand.

Yu Zhen unfolded it in his palm. There was nothing special on the note, just a reminder for him to be careful... The Senju clan focused all their attention on the wedding, and no one noticed anything unusual, but some people seemed to feel a strange atmosphere.

Yu Zhen crumpled the note into his palm, feeling that there was more to the matter than that. The marriage between Senju and Uzumaki was to take the relationship between the two parties to the next level. Even the most stubborn person would not allow bloodshed at the wedding. What would that mean for the Uzumaki clan?

Moreover, to this day, although the size of the "Senju Five" has expanded a little, Yuzhen always feels that someone has infiltrated this group full of purity, friendship and light... Although it was hard to say at the beginning, after so long, I always feel that Senju Tobirama should have noticed something.

After noticing it, with his insidious personality, he would definitely not choose to expose it, but choose to blend in... Put yourself in his shoes, Yu Zhen would do the same.

Oh, a rat shit...

When the guests filled the venue, Thousand-Handed Buddha came on stage first, followed by the newlyweds. At this time, the atmosphere in the venue became more and more lively.

Look at Hashirama Senju, well, the "God of Ninja" is as stiff as a puppet; look at the bride, she looks graceful and elegant, and all kinds of headwear and scarves can hardly hide her deep red hair.

There is nothing much to see about the two of them. Yuzhen has already given them a gift to induce labor in advance, which is the greatest blessing for the two of them.

His gaze was fixed on Senju Butsuma, and he was wondering if Uchiha Madara could help and get the clan leader out of the scene as soon as possible... There was no stage for him at the wedding, and there was no stage for him in the ninja world.

Speaking of Uchiha Madara, it is impossible for Madara to be unaware of such a big event.

What he cared about was not whether there would be a wedding or not, but the trend of various powerful ninja clans moving closer to the Senju clan... In the eyes of ordinary Uchiha ninjas, this trend was extremely disadvantageous to their side.

But Madara is different. He cares about this matter, but not as much as imagined.

"Brother, while they are gathered together, should we try to launch a surprise attack?" Uchiha Izuna came to Madara and said.

Although he gave such advice, he actually knew deep down that it was too late to make a decision and take action at this time.

If Uchiha Madara had intended to launch a surprise attack beforehand, they would have been in the Senju village by now.

Madara shook his head:

"They will definitely be on high alert today. Considering the personality and way that Senju Tobirama does things, at least he won't make any mistakes today."

Why does Madara hate Tobirama? If Tobirama was a loser, Madara wouldn't care about him. It's precisely because he's not a loser that he seems so annoying... This person's dislike index in Madara's eyes is second only to Hama.

Having said that, Madara was reluctant to take action today because he didn't want to do anything tasteless... You can fight at any time, but why do you have to cause a scene at someone else's wedding? Isn't that disgusting?

Izumi Nai's face showed worry:

"But after today, if the ninjas gathered together reach some kind of agreement, the power of the Senju clan will expand rapidly, and the war situation will be greatly disadvantageous to us Uchiha."

Madara glanced at his brother, then shook his head and said:

"You're worrying about nothing, Izuna. You still haven't seen through the essence of our war with the Thousand Hands and the breakthrough point. No matter how many forces the Thousand Hands unite, what we two brothers are going to do will not change..."

"I will deal with Senju Hashirama, and you will deal with Senju Tobirama. After that, the tall building built by the Senju clan will collapse in an instant."
