Chapter 507 Joint Mission

"Is this the location of your mission?" Uchiha Hikaru looked at the barren mountain facing the sea in front of him, his expression gradually becoming confused, "What on earth are you doing here?"

"Come and check the seal, then report back to the daimyo, and let the daimyo decide whether to hire the Uzumaki clan to reinforce the coastline here based on the feedback."

Tobirama raised his hand and pointed at a cliff, "That is a seal point that seals the land. If it collapses, the Fire Country's border coast will lose its protection, and the surrounding fishing villages will be eroded by tsunamis and typhoons during the windy season, so we need to send people to check it frequently.

And because we have close ties with the Uzumaki clan, we have some understanding of their sealing techniques, and can help repair them when necessary, so the daimyo will give us this kind of mission on the eve of the annual truce period."

Uchiha Hikaru nodded thoughtfully, and honestly found a clean place to sit down, holding his chin with both hands, "I don't know how to seal, I'll wait for you here - anyway, I don't feel comfortable following you, and we haven't reached the point where we can share our resources in terms of missions."

Several Thousand Hands had no objection - they had more than one seal to check, so after a brief discussion on the inspection route, they left in pairs.

After leaving Uchiha Hikaru for a distance, Senju Momoyama lowered his head and looked at Tobirama who looked calm, and asked, "Tobirama seems to be very familiar with Uchiha?"

Tobirama didn't think there was anything wrong with being asked, and nodded calmly, "Well, their inner personalities are pretty much the same, so it's easy to deal with them. Is there anything wrong with me along the way?"

"No, not... But Tobirama, your familiarity with and ability to deal with the Uchiha is even better than that of many clansmen who have fought with the Uchiha for half their lives. Tell me the truth, when did you start to have contact with the Uchiha?"

"About two years ago, thanks to my elder brother," Tobirama said expressionlessly but with a tone that could not hide his resentment, "At the beginning, I was made to stay with a Mangekyō for most of the day - I was not very clear at the time, and I asked a lot of stupid questions. After I went back and found out from the clan that he was a Mangekyō, I started to get scared, and I also knew why the clan had always been wary of Uchiha.

But this point changed a little bit when my eldest brother tricked me into going to Uchiha because he wanted to watch fireworks at the end of the year, and because he thought I would be in trouble, he stimulated myself to complete the evolution of the secret technique to bloodline. How should I put it? After that day, even though I knew that Uchiha were a group of ruthless characters and that the Uchiha of Mangekyo were extremely unstable, and even repeatedly reminded myself in my heart, it was still difficult for me to be vigilant against them. "

Looking at Tobirama's somewhat depressed expression, Senju Momoyama couldn't help but chuckle, "I see, no wonder you are liked by Uchiha."

Tobirama's feet suddenly slipped, and after he steadied himself, a look of resentment appeared on his face, "Are you talking to me seriously?"

"Well, if you want to talk to an Uchiha, the most important thing is to take into account their sensitive emotions, especially the Uchiha who have opened their eyes. After possessing those ominous eyes, their own emotions will be magnified hundreds or thousands of times. Only a small number of Uchiha can still remain normal - and of these few Uchiha, at least 90% of them hide their own paranoia very well and look normal. Only the remaining 10% are truly close to normal people because of their own slowness."

Senju Momoyama's eyes were full of complexities. "Although you can easily win their favor because you are not wary of them, and in the future, we are likely to cooperate with the Uchiha, but because of their own characteristics, the Uchiha will not be a stabilizing factor after all, and I don't know whether it is good or bad."

"Whether it's good or bad, I will have to deal with them in the future--" Tobirama said this, his face twitching slightly, "But to be honest, I never thought that the reason Uchiha Ling detained my eldest brother was to ask him to help plant trees in that wasteland so that the tribe members can speed up the processing of the blood pond and return to the tribe for the New Year... What do those Uchiha think of the blood limit?"

"Hahaha - that's how Uchiha are. Don't think too much about them. Focus on the mission first. You take the lead, and I'll be responsible for helping you finish."

"Yes, I understand. Thank you for your help."

In the next few days, Uchiha Hikaru followed the Senju team everywhere, and then met the Uchiha team at the last seal node they decided to go to.

Uchiha Hikaru looked at Senju beside him, then at his own people on the other side, and silently exchanged teams with Senju Lingruo, but still couldn't help but complain, "I say, did you really not communicate privately? You two completely different quest lines, with different journeys, can you still meet at the only intersection?"

Hearing this, Izuna rolled her eyes and said, "If you ask me, who should I ask? This kind of tacit understanding is so disgusting!"

"Eh? I think it's quite interesting," Uchiha Eiji snorted and laughed, "Especially when Senju Shigenori was around, he always had a constipated expression as if he had eaten a fly, it was very interesting--"

Uchiha Guang was puzzled, "Seeing an Uchiha is like eating a fly... Then aren't you treated as a fly by the other side? What's there to be happy about?"

"...As an apprentice, you have learned Ling Jun's sharp tongue to the utmost."

"Even if you praise me like this, I won't say anything good about you to Master."

"I didn't praise you at all, okay?! How did you learn to be so shameless? Are you really a proper master and disciple?!"

At this time, Izuna took the opportunity to stab Uchiha Eiji with a knife, and said without emotion, "Brother Eiji, I will write down what you said."

Uchiha Yingji immediately lowered his head in disbelief - No! How could there be someone complaining here? !

Uchiha Fengli and Uchiha Qizhi were both happily watching the three people in front of them making a fuss, with no intention of stopping them at all.

Compared to the casual exchanges on the Uchiha side, the exchanges on the Senju side were much more formal. Senju Lingruo first briefly described his experiences of the past few days, and then received information about their team's progress from Senju Ming, and then began to chat. However, Senju Lingruo's first sentence was like throwing a detonating talisman at everyone -

"I was always so busy fighting and killing that I didn't pay much attention. Uchiha are actually quite fun to tease."

Thousand Hands: ...?

"Senior Lingruo...are you serious?" Qianshou Baimo's mouth twitched, "I just felt that the Uchiha who followed us was seriously crazy these days - of course, Tobirama, who was able to coax people, was also a little crazy."

Upon hearing this, Tobirama silently raised his eyes and looked at Senju Baimo - Who do you think forced me to do this?

"Eh? Is Tobirama very good at dealing with Uchiha?" Senju Lingruo bent down and rubbed the top of Tobirama's head. "She's really amazing. I heard from Feng Li that the Uchiha Guang who followed you is a famous idiot in the clan. It is said that many Uchiha elders were angered by her and sent to the medical department. They had to abdicate because of their health."

Tobirama was stunned for a moment, and looked at Uchiha Hikaru in disbelief - this Uchiha, who was very talkative and had a strong sense of boundaries in his actions, and could even be described as well-behaved and simple, had such an achievement?

Perhaps Tobirama's action was too abrupt and obvious, and Izuna's voice immediately came from the Uchiha side, "What are you looking at, you damn white-haired bastard! Are you looking for trouble?"

"...No, I'm just curious about what Senior Lingruo teased you about."

"Damn white hair, are you looking for death?"

Looking at Izuna who was glaring at him with her Sharingan, Tobirama looked up at Senju Reira, "I say, Senior, what on earth did you do?"

"Haha...it's nothing actually~" Qianshou Lingruo looked away with a guilty look, "It was just that when he was deliberately trying to act cute next to me and try to extract information from me, I couldn't help but hug him and pamper him."

"...Hululu Mao?"

"That's it—"

Then Tobirama felt the sensation on his head suddenly get worse. He was stroked more than ten times quickly with such force that it seemed as if he was going to rub his head bald. His head even felt buzzing from the shaking.

...I've really had enough of this world.

Seeing Tobirama being humiliated, Izuna felt relieved. "Hey, White Hair, since you want to see Uchiha's attitude, this mission can be coordinated. Both sides happen to have five people, how about pairing up in pairs to test the waters?"

Tobirama raised his hand to adjust his hair, and first looked at Senju Momoyama behind him. After seeing him nod, he agreed, "Well, the joint mission is indeed a good suggestion, let's do it."
