Chapter 6 Uzumaki Mito

In the woods at the edge of Konoha.

There was a constant sound of thunder.

In a large area of ​​the woods, trees were downed and flames were burning.

After performing the last sword form of Thunder Breathing, Qianyu stood there motionless.

Qianyu, who had been tortured for a long time, finally heard the sound of nature.

[The Breath of Thunder has been simulated successfully, the rewards have been distributed, and the system will be released from the takeover state.]

When Qianyu took control of his body again, he fell violently to the ground, curled up on the ground and twitched.

pain...

It hurts everywhere.

It hurt so much that Qianyu didn't even have the strength to scream.

Qianyu now regrets that when he let the system take over his body, he should not have chosen the woods as the place.

Because now Qianyu couldn't even move a finger, and there was a raging flame all around.

If Qianyu doesn't find a way to save himself, he will be burned to death here.

After lying on the ground for a while, Qianyu felt his body getting hotter and hotter.

The will to survive made Qianyu move.

Fortunately, the place chosen by Qianyu had a small river, and she could be saved by just crawling into the river.

But Qianyu crawled so slowly that he felt like his butt was on fire.

Just when Qianyu was finally about to climb into the river, several figures appeared in front of Qianyu.

Qianyu raised his head with great effort, and when he saw the leader, his pupils shrank.

The Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Although Chiba guessed that the people of Konoha would notice the situation here, she did not expect Sarutobi Hiruzen to come here in person.

But at least he should be saved. We’ll talk about what happens next later.

As soon as Qianyu's tense spirit relaxed, he fainted immediately.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and looked at Chiba, his eyes full of confusion.

The situation here is obviously an attack left by the Lightning Release Ninja.

There was only Qianyu here, and there were obvious burns on Qianyu's hands from using Lightning Release Ninjutsu.

But the destruction caused around here is difficult even for a Chunin.

How could Qianyu, a student still attending a ninja school, do such a thing?

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt very incredible.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's perception of Chiba can be said to be bad, but it's actually not that bad.

Although Chiba's parents had defected from Konoha before, to be honest, it was not a betrayal of Konoha, but rather an elopement.

It was the conflict between Chiba's parents and the Uchiha clan, not the conflict with Konoha.

However, the Uchiha clan did not recognize Chiha, and the villagers of Konoha vented their resentment towards the Uchiha clan on Chiha.

Now the resentment of the villagers of Konoha towards the Uchiha clan is growing deeper and deeper, and there are already signs that they are irreconcilable.

However, the current situation in the ninja world is not as peaceful as it seems. War may break out at any time, and Konoha still needs the power of the Uchiha.

Therefore, Sarutobi Hiruzen cannot take action against the Uchiha clan for the time being.

On one side are the villagers, and on the other side are the Uchiha, so Sarutobi Hiruzen simply chose to ignore Chiba's existence.

Now Sarutobi Hiruzen cannot be 100% sure whether this was caused by Chiba, but if it was, then Sarutobi Hiruzen would have to re-evaluate the value of Chiba.

Sarutobi Hiruzen narrowed his eyes as he looked at the unconscious Chiha.

Moreover, there are very few Lightning Release ninjutsu in Konoha. If this situation was caused by Chiyu, it means that Chiyu has mastered a powerful Lightning Release ninjutsu.

Chiba has never left the village since his mother brought him back to Konoha, so the Lightning Release Ninjutsu that Chiba mastered was acquired outside the village.

If this kind of ninjutsu is taught to the ninjas of Konoha who can use lightning escape, Konoha's strength will be greatly improved.

Sarutobi Hiruzen gave orders to the Anbu around him: "Extinguish the surrounding flames, and then take him to the Ninja Hospital for treatment."

After the order was given, the Anbu ninja used water-style ninjutsu to put out the surrounding flames.

One of the Anbu picked up Chiba and took her to the Ninja Hospital.

...

The residence of Mito Uzumaki.

After being rejected by Chiba, Uzumaki Kushina returned to Uzumaki Mito's mansion in a daze.

Uzumaki Kushina, who had just arrived in Konoha, was staying here in Uzumaki Mito.

Uzumaki Mito saw Uzumaki Kushina coming back and asked with a smile, "Kushina, how was your first day at the ninja school? Did everything go well?"

Uzumaki Kushina pursed her lips and shouted in grievance: "Grandma Mito."

Uzumaki Mito saw that Uzumaki Kushina looked aggrieved, so he went forward, picked up Uzumaki Kushina, sat on the couch, and asked, "What happened?"

Uzumaki Kushina told Uzumaki Mito how she was nicknamed Tomato in class and how she beat up those who bullied her, and how she wanted to make friends with Chiba but was rejected.

Uzumaki Mito murmured, "Chiba?"

Hearing Uzumaki Mito's murmurs, Uzumaki Kushina asked curiously: "Grandma Mito, do you know Chiba?"

"Yeah, I've heard of it."

Uzumaki Mito's voice was a little muffled.

How could you not know him?

Chiyu's father is from the Senju clan, and is of the same clan as her husband, Senju Hashirama.

However, since the founding of Konoha, Hashirama Senju, the patriarch of the Senju clan, disbanded the Senju clan. All the clan members intermarried with the villagers of Konoha and became lost among the crowd.

When Chiba's parents defected from Konoha, Uzumaki Mito even pleaded with Sarutobi Hiruzen for mercy.

But it didn't work because Chiba's mother was from the Uchiha clan.

As the Uchiha clan is the largest clan in Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen, as the Hokage, has to give them face.

Later, Chiba returned to Konoha, and Uzumaki Mito proposed to adopt Chiba, but was also rejected by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The reasons given by Sarutobi Hiruzen were Uzumaki Mito's identity and Chiba's identity.

Chiba's parents are traitor ninjas and are not recognized by the Uchiha clan.

As the wife of the first Hokage, Uzumaki Mito is not suitable to adopt a child whose parents are traitorous ninjas and who has been abandoned by the Uchiha clan.

At that time, Uzumaki Mito was still lamenting that Sarutobi Hiruzen, who succeeded the Hokage, had become a little unfamiliar to her.

Mito Uzumaki stroked Kushina Uzumaki's hair and asked, "Do you know why Chiba refused to be friends with you?"

Uzumaki Kushina said aggrievedly: "He said, 'I am isolated by the whole village. If you make friends with me, you may also be isolated by everyone.' Then he asked me to change seats when I return to school and left."

Uzumaki Mito's eyes flickered: "Has he been isolated by the entire village?...Alas, Monkey, Chiba has done nothing wrong."

Uzumaki Mito sighed deeply, feeling heartbroken about Chiba's current situation.

But now she can't do anything and can't change Qianyu's current situation.

Looking at Uzumaki Kushina who looked unhappy, Uzumaki Mito became thoughtful.
