Chapter 421 Reasons to Become a Ninja

After another quarrel with Uchiha Kenji, Uchiha Hikaru successfully made himself cry again. He returned to the rented room alone and sat on the bed to sulk. However, the sulk had not lasted long before he was The kid he found interrupted, and Uchiha Hikari could only look at the little carrots who came to him with red eyes, and said in a hoarse voice, "Did something happen?"

Three little carrot heads, you look at me and I look at you. Finally, the two boys in the team began to wrestle with each other. The weaker one was pushed forward with a look of despair on his face. He hesitated for a long time before speaking. , "...Hey, Sister Guang, is Uncle Ling really cooperating with the Uzumaki clan?"

Uchiha Hikari was stunned for a moment and was quite curious about what the little guys said, "Although the master and I are called master and apprentice, I am only less than three years younger than the master. Why do you call me sister but uncle?"

"I, I..." The boy who first talked to Uchiha Hikaru grasped the hem of his clothes and burst into tears, "I don't know, if you ask me to say this, I, I was forced to come here..."

"Oh, it's all your fault. You said it as promised before. Look, Huan is crying again."

"I also want him to develop his courage. How can a man be so scared that he dare not even speak to others? Oh, Zhenle, don't be angry... I don't dare anymore."

Uchiha Ruo scratched the back of his head and smiled at Uchiha Hikaru, "Sister Hikaru, my mother said that when you meet a woman older than you, you should call her sister regardless of age. When you meet a man older than you, you should call him brother within ten years old. Those who are over 10 years old are called uncle. We are all under eight years old this year, over ten years old, and Uncle Ling is almost nineteen, so we should call him uncle, that’s right!”

Uchiha Hikari suddenly couldn't laugh or cry. He rubbed the tops of the little guys' hair one by one and let them in. "A bunch of little ghosts... I actually don't know if the master really cooperates with the Uzumaki clan. After all, I am just his apprentice." It’s only been less than two months, I don’t know him that well, and he won’t tell me too many secrets.”

"But Uncle Ling has a very good attitude towards you?" Uchiha Sadara stood next to Uchiha Hikaru, "Why didn't I tell you? Brother Izuna also said that he is a little jealous that you can always be taught seriously."

"Even if you are kind to others, you have to distinguish between those who are near and those who are distant... The master and I are not that close yet - and for those instructions, if anyone in the clan asks the master, the master will teach him patiently and take me very seriously. The reason is just because I have no other choice.”

Uchiha Hikari lowered his eyes, covering up the loneliness in his eyes, and changed the topic, "Speaking of you, Izuna is the master's younger brother. You call my master uncle, but you call him brother. Isn't it completely inferior?"

Uchiha Ruo was stunned for a moment, thought carefully for a few seconds and then smiled sheepishly, "Hey...it seems so."

"I've already told you that my eldest brother and Uncle Ling - Brother Ling are of the same generation, but you still insist on calling me uncle..." Uchiha Huanchao protested in a low voice, "Obviously, in terms of seniority, I need to be called uncle. Uncle only has you."

"Yes, yes, Aruo is a big idiot -" Uchiha Sadaku sat on the chair and shook his calves, laughing, "Last time, he drew the wrong pattern representing the duration on the detonator, which blew up the teacher in charge of the test. Black face hahaha~"

Uchiha Waka didn't refute, and even puffed up his chest quite proudly, "But I was the only one who blew up the teacher, wasn't I? And my detonating talisman is the most powerful, much stronger than those squibs whose detonating talisman can't even explode!" "

"But weren't you later hung up on the eaves by the teacher and struggled until school was over before you were put down..."

Uchiha Ruo's face suddenly stiffened, and he looked at Uchiha Gen with resentment, "Didn't I just push you out and let you practice your courage? As for exposing me like this..."

Looking at the three little ones chatting lively in front of her, Uchiha Hikaru unconsciously smiled at the corner of her mouth, but soon, she thought of something, and the smile at the corner of her mouth became shallow again. As the three little ones spoke, During the break, he spoke in a gentle voice as usual, "Speaking of which, why do you all want to be ninjas?"

The three little ones stopped the conversation, which had already strayed eight hundred miles, and looked at each other in confusion.

In the end, it was Uchiha Waka, the most social person, who spoke, "Because being a ninja is fun and majestic - and everyone goes to clan training to become a ninja in the future. What should I do if I don't become a ninja?"

"Yes, my father is a ninja, my mother is a ninja, and my brothers and sisters are also ninjas..." Uchiha Sadaku said with his fingers, "So I will also be a ninja. Isn't this natural?"

Uchiha Hikari lowered his eyes, covering up the sadness and disgust from the bottom of his heart. After adjusting his emotions, he looked at the silent Uchiha Gen, and said warmly, "Then what's the reason for Xiao Gen?"

"I don't know either," Gen Uchiha lowered his head and fiddled with his clothes unconsciously with his hands, "But my parents said that as long as I become a powerful ninja, everyone will like me and recognize me..." Although it is more difficult than ever. Instead of fighting and killing, I prefer to study ninjutsu quietly.

Uchiha Gen didn't dare to say the following words. After all, when he was studying in the clan, the clan teacher used him as a negative example, saying that if everyone was as timid as him, they would die quickly and become the target of the enemy. Trash despised by all.

Uchiha Sadaku and Uchiha Ruo obviously knew what he was going to say, and they even laughed at him more than once in terms of family knowledge. If they were not familiar with each other in the past few days, they would indeed be familiar with Uchiha Gen's knowledge. Impressed by his broad scope, they would not approach a guy like him who has been defined as a waste by the teacher.

[So it turns out, he is an abandoned child... Those who look forward to stability will not die well, and it cannot be realized without the ability to fight - huh, Sister Haiming said it clearly. 】

Uchiha Hikaru rubbed the top of the child's hair lovingly, his dark eyes filled with emotions that were difficult for outsiders to detect, [A twisted world, a twisted clan, and people who have to twist themselves in this environment... I may have I knew a little bit about why the master wanted to save me and what he had planned for me to do. 】
