Chapter 51 Uchiha Hazuki is restless

The brazier in the center was lit, and the orange-red flames illuminated the entire space, with flickering light and shadow dancing on the stone walls.

Uchiha Hachimoku stood by the door. Seeing that most of the people had arrived, he slowly walked to the stone door and forcefully closed the heavy stone door.

With a muffled "boom," the sealed room was instantly isolated from the outside world, and the firelight became the only source of light, casting shadows on everyone's faces.

Kiyoshi, who had just become a genin, sat at the very back and could feel pairs of eyes constantly being cast upon him.

These gazes varied; some were filled with curiosity, some with disdain, and others with a hint of appreciation and anticipation.

The crimson Sharingan was particularly striking in the dim light, radiating a cold luster.

Of course, there were also some surprises.

Uchiha Hazuki is a Chunin, and her position is slightly behind the center.

Her eyes widened, clearly not realizing that Kiyoshi, who had just gone to learn ninjutsu a while ago, had already graduated?

Uchiha Hazuki was wondering whether she should strike up a conversation with Kiyoshi to ease the tension.

After all, her attitude towards Kiyoshi last time wasn't exactly good.

If Kiyoshi publicly says everything is fine, but secretly holds a grudge, that would be troublesome.

Uchiha Hazuki doesn't believe that such geniuses are limited to genin!

"Congratulations, Kiyoshi, on becoming a ninja."

After thinking for a while, Uchiha Hazuki got up and wanted to walk towards Kiyoshi.

To everyone's surprise, Kiyoshi simply nodded, a stark contrast to the simple, honest smile he had given that day.

Kiyoshi's attitude was unexpected by Hazuki Uchiha.

"Kiyoshi, you..."

She was just about to ask Kiyoshi if he was still bothered by what happened last time.

"Hazuki, Fugaku is about to speak."

As a Jonin, Mikoto, who was standing at the front, turned around and said to Hazuki, who had stood up.

"it is good."

Uchiha Hazuki had no choice but to sit down first.

She wondered if Kiyoshi's previous behavior was just an act to deceive her.

The tribespeople reacted in different ways.

Sitting opposite all his clansmen, Fugaku Uchiha crossed his arms, the Uchiha clan crest on his shoulders gleaming in the firelight.

A light cough broke the whispers and discussions in the secret room.

"Today, we Uchiha welcome a new ninja, Uchiha Kiyoshi."

As soon as he finished speaking, some clansmen who had not yet awakened their Sharingan activated it, and crimson lights lit up in the secret room like sparks.

The awakening of the Sharingan is a unique ceremony of the Uchiha clan, serving both as a congratulation to the newcomer and as a silent form of scrutiny.

Kiyoshi stood up.

The firelight flickered in the secret room, making Kiyoshi's upright figure stand out clearly.

His gaze swept around, showing no sign of fear.

Fugaku couldn't help but nod in approval.

I remember on the very first day, that kid was able to perform quite well under my Sharingan.

"We, the Uchiha, are not a clan that cares about foreign bloodlines. Once you come to the Uchiha, we are all united clan members."

Fugaku spoke up.

Regardless of whose blood Kiyoshi has, as long as he is loyal to the Uchiha clan, that's enough.

"Yes, Lord Fugaku."

Kiyoshi nodded.

Anyone can say nice things about uniting with each other.

As for whether Fugaku himself could do it, the original work has already provided a conclusion.

"What are your plans for the future?"

Fugaku looked at Kiyoshi.

He received a hint from Hiruzen Sarutobi that Kiyoshi possessed the Will of Fire.

This statement clearly indicates that the speaker has a positive view of Kiyoshi.

So Fugaku, who had originally planned to directly insert Kiyoshi into the Konoha Police Department, changed his mind.

"I... want to carry out missions like other ninjas. Once I've gained enough experience, I'll join the Konoha Police Department and work with everyone."

Kiyoshi's expression was filled with longing, and after a pause, he continued:

"Furthermore, Teacher Nonou is willing to teach me some medical ninjutsu, and I want to train myself in this area so that I can better help my clansmen once I have the ability."

"Yakushi Nonou?"

Fugaku asked, puzzled.

The other members of the tribe were equally puzzled.

"Isn't that a ninja with exceptional medical skills?"

"It is said that, apart from Tsunade, she is the best medical ninja in Konoha."

"Ah, I remember now, she treated me before. Her medical ninjutsu is really amazing."

"Uchiha Kiyoshi actually has a 'Yang attribute'?"

The tribespeople whispered among themselves.

Not only was Yakushi Nonou shocked that she could fall for Kiyoshi, but she was also surprised that Kiyoshi possessed "yang attributes".

Most Uchiha are of the "Yin attribute," with only a small number of clan members possessing the "Yang attribute."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Hazuki became even more restless.

She... couldn't have really offended Kiyoshi.

Knowing his own talent, Kiyoshi became arrogant and came to settle scores later.

At this moment, Uchiha Hazuki felt only disheartened by Kiyoshi's acting skills that day.

How old is this child?!

"It was a promise between Kiyoshi and Yakushi Nonou."

Seeing that the other tribesmen were puzzled, Mikoto stepped forward and explained the whole story.

If Kiyoshi graduates from the Ninja Academy and possesses the qualifications of a medical ninja, Yakushi Nonou is willing to teach Kiyoshi.

Yakushi Nonou was present when she said those words.

"I never knew you had such a talent."

Fugaku nodded.

The fact that Kiyoshi was favored by the medical team leader shows that he has great talent in medicine.

The only pity is that Kiyoshi only has one Sharingan, and whether it can evolve in the future is still a question mark.

While mixed-race Uchiha clans have existed before, Uchiha clans with only one eye are extremely rare, with only a few records of them found in surviving historical documents from the Warring States period.

"In that case, you should follow the village's subsequent arrangements."

Fugaku made plans regarding Kiyoshi's whereabouts.

Since Hiruzen Sarutobi had high hopes for Kiyoshi, he could use Kiyoshi to ease the tension between the village and the Uchiha clan.

Since Uchiha took over the management of the Konoha Police Department, he has offended many people.

Many ninja clans treated the Uchiha clan with indifference, leaving them somewhat isolated and helpless in the vast village of Konoha.

"Is there anything you want?"

Since Kiyoshi is such a genius, Fugaku decided to increase investment to strengthen the bond between Kiyoshi and the Uchiha clan.

"I'm missing a ninja sword."

Kiyoshi spoke the truth.

He was worried about where to earn money to buy a knife; it would be even better if the Uchiha clan could provide one.

"No problem, Mikoto. After that, you take Kiyoshi to learn the 'Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique,' then take him out of the village to the ninja cat clan to buy a suitable sword."

Fugaku said to Mikoto.

Mikoto always completed Fugaku's tasks with great efficiency, and Fugaku secretly regarded her as a capable helper before she was married into the family.

"it is good."

Mikoto nodded.

After this matter was concluded, Fugaku asked Kiyoshi to sit down and began to discuss some other trivial matters concerning the Uchiha clan.

Only Uchiha Hazuki felt uneasy, glancing in Kiyoshi's direction every now and then.

Kiyoshi noticed Uchiha Hazuki's unusual behavior, and a sinister smile appeared on his lips.

Isn't this the best candidate right now to improve one's pupil power?
