I'm a Hokage in Tokyo

He who knows the times is a hero, Fujiwara no Masataka said weakly.

After Fujiwara Masataka left, Uchiha Ming turned around and raised the corner of his mouth.

The archery competition at Hachimangu Shrine is just a side game before the main show.

The next Gion Festival...

"what?"

Uchiha Ming was thinking about a plan in his mind when he suddenly shuddered.

With my super shadow-level strength and immortal body, it is impossible for me to catch a cold.

Could it be that someone is criticizing me behind my back?

-----------------

At the same time, dozens of reporters in the press booths stood up.

"The awards ceremony will be next. We must seize this opportunity to interview Uchiha Ming."

"It's enough to just mention Uchiha Mingyu's strength, but his father, Uchiha Minister, is the highlight!"

The reporters were eager to try it out.

The University of Tokyo, number one in the Tokyo Kyudo Federation, devil-like dominance, top-notch looks, and most importantly, his father is the director of the Supernatural Police Department. With so many factors combined together, it is bound to cause a sensation.

Suddenly a gust of cold water was poured over me.

"Don't be so delusional. The Supernatural Police Department will not allow you to publish any specific news about the Minister's son."

A sports reporter raised his chin to the Shikima reporter and said in frustration:

"Shikijima, your newspaper has also been interviewed by the Supernatural Police Department, right?"

"That's true."

Reporter Shikijima nodded.

"Hey, why is that?"

The reporters were disappointed and dejected.

The Supernatural Police Department has now expanded into a behemoth, dominating Japan. Even the capital behind their newspaper does not dare to fall into the iron fist of the Supernatural Police Department.

In this case, it would be like going to a mountain of treasures but coming back empty-handed. Everyone was feeling uncomfortable because they couldn't write about such a good breaking point.

"How about this, we don't report the relationship between Uchiha Ming and Uchiha Minister."

An experienced and mature reporter wearing black-framed glasses suggested:

"Don't even mention the Uchiha surname, just focus on reporting his performance in the Kyudo tournament."

Everyone looked at each other, their eyes moved.

Sounds like it might work.

Although it is a pity that the father-son relationship between Uchiha Ming and Uchiha Minister cannot be reported, Uchiha Ming's face on the cover of the magazine is enough to boost sales.

"Even if we remove the surname and only use the first name, it's not safe. Otherwise, we should give Minister Uchiha's son a resounding name."

"Kyudo nobunaga?"

"This has been used before. Maybe it can be registered with the Supernatural Policing Department."

The reporters were talking at once, their imaginations running wild, their middle school spirits burning.

"The best archer in Kanto?"

"hand of God!"

"If the day is like this."

"Since we are displaying our power at Hachimangu Shrine, how about calling it Hachiman's Arrow?"

These Japanese journalists really don't change their bad habits.

One after another, extremely childish nicknames gushed out, making people dizzy and ear-splitting.

"Why not just call him 'Son of God'?"

Reporter Shikijima pondered for a long time and said something shocking.

The reporters who were arguing suddenly shut their mouths at the same time, and their eyes lit up at the same time.

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

"Shikijima, are you a genius?"

Son of God not only points out that Uchiha Ming is miraculous, like the archery skills bestowed by the god of bows and arrows, but what is more intriguing is, whose son is Uchiha Ming?

This level of flattery is simply like an antelope hanging a horn, perfect!

We respect Minister Uchiha so much, how can the Supernatural Police Department have the nerve to take harsh measures?

The reporters were amazed.

"Decided."

Reporter Shikijima raised his arm and made the final decision:

"Just call me Son of God!"

Chapter 399 Chapter 400 White Sasuke

Gion, Higashiyama District, Kyoto.

The setting sun hides behind Aihong Mountain, and the indigo night falls.

Everywhere you can see men and women walking in pairs in brightly colored yukatas, all of them talking and laughing loudly, in high spirits and with sparkling eyes.

"..."

Uchiha Ming, wearing a dark black yukata, had a calm expression as he walked side by side with the archery prince Fujiwara Masaki, who was wearing a plain white yukata.

Fujiwara Masataka's eyes flickered and he looked embarrassed.

In front of the two of them, Chiyo Matsudaira and Saki Yashiki, who were also wearing beautiful bathrobes, were talking and laughing like a pair of good friends.

After the Tokyo Metropolitan Federation Kyudo Tournament ended, Uchiha Ming and Matsudaira Chiyo stayed in Kyoto to visit the Gion Festival.

It is summer vacation at Japanese universities, so there is plenty of time.

The Gion Festival lasted for a week. After a few days of sightseeing in Kyoto, Matsudaira Chiyo actually called out Yashikisaki together with Fujiwara Masaki.

Chiyo Matsudaira had exchanged contact information with Yashiki Saki in the previous match.

A double date for four.

The four handsome men and beautiful women were very eye-catching, but because they were a male-female group, others did not dare to approach them rashly.

Fujiwara Masataka looked unnatural, because he had just said that he looked forward to seeing Uchiha Ming again at Ise Jingu, and that he would definitely impress Uchiha Ming. But they met again just a few days later, so it was inevitable that he felt a little embarrassed.

Uchiha Ming didn't care.

He looked up and his eyes fell on the rows of lanterns in front of the store.

Lanterns are lined up in the streets and alleys, shining brightly. The stalls along the road are full of takoyaki, okonomiyaki, cotton candy... the lights are endless all the way to the streets.

The patterns on most of the lanterns are divine patterns composed of three magatama, almost turning into a sea of ​​'Sharingan'.

It's like entering a world line where the Uchiha have already captured Kyoto.

At this moment, one of the tourists asked in surprise:

"Why are there Akatsuki Sharingan images everywhere at the Gion Festival? The Minor Crimes Act prohibits propaganda that imitates Akatsuki. Is this really allowed?"

Immediately, local people in Kyoto glared at the rude tourists.

"What do you know, country bumpkin? This is the sacred crest of the Yasaka Shrine that enshrines Susanoo. The Gion Festival has been like this for thousands of years and has nothing to do with the Akatsuki organization."

During the Zhenguan period of Emperor Seiwa in the Heian period, there were successive eruptions of Mount Fuji, earthquakes, and tsunamis, known in history as the "Zhenguan Sanriku Earthquake." Summer was a time when epidemics frequently occurred. Due to the concentrated population and backward public facilities, epidemics were rampant in the Heian capital at that time, and people were in panic.

During this turbulent time, the Yamato court sought divination from an Onmyoji, who believed that it was caused by evil spirits, so they decided to plan a memorial service to pray for blessings, provide disaster relief, and eliminate the plague.

This is the origin of the Gion Festival.

Because of the Japanese tradition of combining gods and Buddhism, Susanoo and the guardian of Gion in Buddhism, Yakushi Nyorai, are one and the same, in charge of the power to cure diseases and eliminate disasters. The temple dedicated to Susanoo was called "Gion Shrine" at that time.

It was not until after the Meiji Restoration that the order to separate Shinto and Buddhism was issued and the shrine was renamed Yasaka Shrine.

"But, this is too similar, it's exactly the same."

"How ignorant you are. Not only the Yasaka Shrine, but even the sacred crest of the Hachiman Shrine is like this. Can the Supernatural Police Department ban them all?"

The questioning tourists got themselves into trouble and disappeared into the crowd in shame.

"Tsk."

Uchiha Ming laughed to himself.

"This kind of misunderstanding has happened more than once or twice."

Fujiwara Masataka saw this little farce, shook his head and smiled bitterly:

"The Gion Festival in the first year of the Supernatural was almost cancelled, but fortunately the Supernatural Police Department was understanding."

"Indeed, there is no coincidence in the world."

Uchiha Ming smiled slightly.

The Sharingan's Sanba pattern was popular during the Heian and Kamakura periods, and was widely used in weapons, clothing, daily necessities, and roof tiles of buildings.

In addition to Yasaka Shrine, Hachimangu Shrine, and Takemikaze God, which use it as a divine crest, it is also used as a family crest by some court nobles.

It is indeed difficult for the Japanese government to find any clues about Uchiha from the Sanba pattern.

The Yasaka Shrine, which enshrines Susanoo, has a divine emblem similar to the Uchiha clan's Sharingan. After the Uchiha clan opened the Mangekyō Sharingan, they awakened the 'Susanoo'. This way, there is something to be said for this.

"What are you talking about?"

Chiyo Matsudaira and Yashiki Saki walked over gracefully in wooden clogs.

"I heard something about something extraordinary."

"All boys are like this. Especially boys like them who practice kendo, kyudo and other martial arts, who doesn't dream of becoming extraordinary?"

After the advent of the supernatural era, the Japanese government vigorously promoted traditional martial arts such as judo, karate, sumo, kendo, and archery, apparently in an attempt to cultivate a reserve army of supernatural beings.

After all, there are extraordinary beings like the Penglai Miko who use traditions and bows.

In today's high schools and universities, practicing a martial art is a very popular trend.

"Snapped."

Chiyo Matsudaira and Yashiki Saki were playing a target shooting game in front of a stall.

"You got it right, little girl. Here's the prize."

The stall owner handed the prize to Yashikisaki with a smile.

Although Matsudaira Chiyo tried very hard, she still missed the target.

"A Ming, I want that."

Matsudaira Chiyo tugged at Uchiha Ming's sleeve, pointed at a stuffed dog at the innermost part, and said coquettishly.

Her bright red bathrobe was dotted with butterflies and auspicious clouds. Her long black hair was tied up with a peony hairpin, revealing her fair neck.

Uchiha Ming took a glance at the ragdoll dog and saw that its cheeky appearance was somewhat similar to that of the family's ninja dog Tsunayoshi, and he couldn't help but become interested.

"Snapped."

Uchiha Ming took the toy gun and fired a random rubber bullet, hitting the toy dog ​​and making it stagger.

"It counts only if you knock it down."

The stall owner said expressionlessly without blinking.

Uchiha Ming looked at Yashiki Saki and said, "Isn't it okay if my friend hits the prize?"

"Can boys compare with girls in strength?" The stall owner rolled his eyes and said righteously.

Haha, you pretty boy, you still want to show off in front of such a beautiful girlfriend. Do you really think I’m an NPC who helps you to gain favorability?

The stall owner, who has been single for forty years, sneered in his heart.
