JST Chapter 13: Clash of Ambitions
🕑 Added 2024-08-08 23:21:08 +0000 UTCKazuki blinked and thought of a man who probably knew more about the Uchiha than the Uchiha themselves. So without further ado, he asked him directly. "Tobirama, do you recognize this sword?"
"Kazuki kid, you have good eyesight..." Tobirama followed Kazuki's line of sight and looked at the sword that he was once very familiar with a complicated expression: "This is Uchiha Izuna's sword, his name is Muramasa. He has caused me a lot of trouble in the past."
Kazuki's eyes lit up instantly. Uchiha Izuna's sword? That's a rare thing!
But why didn't Uchiha Madara take this sword? Was it because it was too late, or was he afraid it would remind him of Izuna...?
Not letting his mind wander too much, Kazuki took the sword down from the wall and examined it in his hands.
Whether it is from the weight of the blade, the center of gravity, or the sharpness, this sword is an impeccable good sword.
"Tobirama, is there anything special about this sword?" Kazuki waved the Muramasa in his hand, causing a sharp sound of breaking through the air. "To be honest, I want your Thunder God Sword more. This sword feels ordinary, not as good as yours..."
Although he was very satisfied with Muramasa, Kazuki still praised a white-haired old man in a practical way.
A sword is more handsome if it can transform and have special effects.
"Greedy little devil..." Tobirama snorted in discontent, but the smile on his face showed that he was in a good mood. He explained honestly: "Uchiha Izuna's Muramasa is made with a large amount of chakra metal, giving it excellent chakra conductivity. In addition, this sword also contains other special metals, forged at high temperatures, giving it surprising hardness and sharpness."
"My Thunder God Sword is a finished product that imitates Muramasa and surpasses it, but before I made it, I first studied the Flying Thunder God Technique, so I didn't need to fight with the sword to defeat that guy.”
Kazuki nodded seriously. "Okay, Tobirama, it seems that you are more powerful."
"So, where is the Thunder God Sword? Anyway, you can't use it, why not let me take it, I will take it to protect Konoha..."
Tobirama's face darkened. "The sword is in the Senju ancestral home. If you have the courage, go and get it."
Kazuki sighed helplessly. "Well, it seems I'll have to use Uchiha Izuna's sword. Though I'd actually rather use yours, too bad..."
"Humph, isn't it just right for the Uchiha kid to use that guy's sword? "
Kazuki shrugged. The Senju ancestral residence? It seems that it is now occupied by Tsunade... It's not that I can't go there to look for her, there will be a chance.
Meanwhile, Shisui had picked up two tanto-tachi, plus all sorts of explosive tags and smoke bombs...
Kazuki smiled resignedly and tapped him on the head with the hilt of his sword. "Don't you see that all this equipment is ours? If you want to use it, you just have to come and get it. It seems as if you are afraid that you won't be able to return in the future..."
Shisui nodded confusedly, and then he suddenly realized: "Yes, these are all ours!"
"Brother, it turns out that our family is so rich?”
Kazuki raised his eyebrows. "What do you think..."
...
At this time.
Uchiha Obito was in the clan warehouse, accompanied by Uchiha Setsuna and Uchiha Fugaku, selecting his equipment...
"Obito, don't torment yourself over the failure of the past few days. You are only seven years old, while Uchiha Kazuki is already eleven. That four-year difference is crucial for a ninja to improve his skills…"
"In the history of our clan, a genius who awakens the Sharingan at the age of seven like you is extremely rare. With the support of the clan and your effort, surpassing Uchiha Kazuki will be a piece of cake for you." Setsuna said, patting Obito on the shoulder, with a serious and excited expression, full of encouragement.
Uchiha Setsuna, who claimed to have inherited the Will of Madara, is the representative of the hawkish figures of the Uchiha clan. He advocated using force to force Konoha to make concessions. It would be best to directly overturn the Hokage Building and let the Uchiha clan take charge in one step.
But the embarrassing thing is that Uchiha Setsuna didn't choose the right time. He chose to start the rebellion before the First Shinobi World War, after the death of Senju Hashirama.
He thought at the time that after Senju Hashirama died, the Hokage system only had the insidious Senju Tobirama as the pillar, and there was nothing else except conspiracy and trickery. He thought that the remaining shinobi of Konoha were nothing in front of the power of the Sharingan, as if he had forgotten how Uchiha Izuna died. So he launched a fierce attack on the Hokage Residence…
After that, Uchiha Setsuna was captured by Senju Tobirama, and he didn't even use the Flying Thunder God Technique.
Senju Tobirama was very humane and didn't execute him. He was imprisoned until he was released in recent years.
But after being in prison for twenty years, Uchiha Setsuna did not change his original intention. Instead, he became a more extreme hawk, vowing to overthrow high-level Konoha officials.
After being released from prison, Uchiha Setsuna keenly noticed that the Uchiha clan and Konoha were drifting apart. With his deep experience in the clan and his ability to stir up the emotions of the clan members, he quickly became Uchiha Fugaku's think tank and the elder of the Uchiha clan.
After Uchiha Obito showed his talent at the Ninja School, Uchiha Setsuna was so excited that he found Uchiha Obito that night and told him that the clan would train him vigorously.
In Uchiha Setsuna's eyes, Uchiha Obito was a perfect piece of material that had not been trained by anyone. As long as he was brainwashed a little, he would definitely be a seed that would lead the Hawk Faction to a better future.
"Come, Obito. I’ve already discussed this with Clan Leader Fugaku—you’re free to ask for whatever you need."
Setsuna wrapped his arms around Obito's shoulders, a red glow in his eyes, as if his pupils were glowing. "The essence of Madara-sama's Fire Release and Izuna-sama's Kenjutsu are at your disposal, as well as the records of the Sharingan. Ninja tools and ninjutsu are available to you without restrictions..."
"Remember, as a member of the Uchiha clan, if you focus on training your Sharingan, there will be no enemy you cannot defeat. Whether it be Water Release, genjutsu, or some despicable ninjutsu, it could be of use against you."
"With the power of the Sharingan, you will have strength, and with strength, you will have everything..."
Obito listened excitedly to Setsuna's words, which sounded like a demonic whisper. He was trembling slightly, with an excited expression on his face.
Seeing the red glow in Setsuna's eyes, his own Sharingan began to spin slowly, as if responding to some energy.
This is the first time that, besides Nohara Rin, there is someone who cares about him so much...
In the past, because he was mediocre in talent among his peers in the clan, Obito was like a transparent person in the Uchiha clan.
But today, the leader and the elder of the clan showed him a kind and caring attitude, comforting him all night.
Uchiha Obito also thought that the attention he received now was not from true feelings, but just because of his talent...
But Uchiha Setsuna understood this point clearly and with tears in his eyes, he told him about the clan's current difficulties and thus he could not pay attention to him in time, and humbly apologized to him.
This old-fashioned routine was quite effective and easily won Obito over. He couldn't resist Setsuna's persuasion at all. His pure and stupid heart was completely bought off.
In particular, Uchiha Setsuna even used his pupil power to subtly adjust Uchiha Obito's emotions.
"Leader Fugaku, Elder Setsuna, thank you for your concern! I will not let you down and will strive to improve the clan's prestige." Obito clenched his fists with tears in his eyes, full of ambition.
It was as if he had already become the pillar of the Uchiha clan, easily defeating Kazuki with his extraordinary power, becoming the leader of the Uchiha clan, changing the situation of the clan, marrying Rin, and reaching the pinnacle of his life.
"Good boy, just practice with peace of mind. Whether you have difficulties or confusion in your practice, come to me at any time."
"As for Uchiha Kazuki, he is just the descendant of a traitor who went astray and surrendered to the enemy. He may seem stronger than you temporarily, but in fact, he has exhausted his potential and has no future!"
Setsuna looked with satisfaction at the desire in Obito's eyes and led him to the clan's secret room, where she began choosing resources for him.
Uchiha Fugaku looked at this scene with worry.
Although he succeeded to the position of clan leader at the age of less than 30, he did not have a strong voice in the Uchiha clan, and needed Uchiha Setsuna, an old veteran, to help him gain a foothold.
But in fact, Uchiha Fugaku was not a hawk, but still wanted to repair relations with Konoha and find a way to coexist.
Uchiha Setsuna's description of Kazuki as the descendant of a traitor in his previous words was obviously a reference to Uchiha Kagami, which made Uchiha Fugaku feel very unhappy.
Can the Uchiha clan really rebel? Although the Uchiha with three tomoe are powerful, Konoha has almost ten Kage-level shinobi and the number of Jonin far outnumber them…
