Chapter 113: For the Family, I Can Go for a Marriage Alliance
After walking into the clan head's mansion, the two encountered Uchiha Madara, who was coming toward them with a wooden sword. He saw his handsome face was dark, and he grabbed Izuna's neck, ignoring his resistance, and dragged him away forcibly,
"Father is waiting for you."
Leaving this sentence, Uchiha Madara continued his daily interaction with his younger brother. Uchiha Gin and the other looked at the little cousin who was full of hope with very sympathetic eyes, and could only give him a look of "I can't help you."
Uchiha Gin and Uchiha Guang walked shoulder-to-shoulder on the wooden corridor. It was midsummer, and the cicadas in the courtyard were endless.
Under the scorching sun, the petite girl was wearing a heavy cloak, and a few drops of fragrant sweat seeped from her forehead, and her breathing was somewhat disordered.
"If it's too hot, take off the cloak. The dark personality won't revive when not fighting."
Sensing that the girl's state was a bit strenuous, wearing such a thick cloak in the dog days was indeed too stuffy. The girl was by his side now, so there shouldn't be any more trouble, and the cloak could be taken off,
"And you just bought so many new clothes, it's a pity to wear them under the cloak."
"Hmm... I'll adapt a bit more."
Recalling the dark personality she had communicated with last night, the girl tightened the cloak on her body, thought for a while, and then replied slowly.
"Don't worry, I'll help you find a way to completely eliminate that dark personality."
Uchiha Gin had been thinking about how to completely remove the dark personality from his uncle and Guang since he returned.
Although there was no way now, it was not guaranteed that the system could brush out some useful skills in the future to solve this problem.
"Thank you, Gin~"
The girl raised her head, her beautiful eyes filled with water. However, the height difference between the two was a bit disparate. From Uchiha Gin's perspective, Uchiha Guang now looked more like a spoiled neighbor's little sister.
"Why be so polite with me, we are family."
Patting the girl's head, he always felt that since the girl was rescued, the most she said to him was thank you.
It was really too polite. Senju Itama, that brat, was more like family with him, without any taboos, and would kiss him from time to time.
The two talked one sentence after another, and soon arrived at Uchiha Tajima's study. Uchiha Gin stepped forward and hit it a few times violently. With the violent trembling of the door, the dust on the beams fell down.
"Come in!"
Uchiha Tajima's helpless voice came from inside. Uchiha Gin smiled and pushed the door in with Uchiha Guang.
"Gin, how many times have I told you, knock on the door lightly. Don't you know how much strength you have?"
Uchiha Tajima, sitting behind the desk, looked at the door of his study with a painful face. This was something he spent a lot of money to find a famous master in the Land of Fire to build, and it cost a lot.
"So stingy, can you show some of the pattern of a clan head?"
Uchiha Gin rolled his eyes, and skillfully wiped the fresh nose booger he had just picked onto the pillar of the study, making Uchiha Tajima's fist holding the pen harden.
"Hoo~~"
Forcibly recalling the scene of this big nephew's filial piety, Uchiha Tajima exhaled a turbid breath, his eyes changed, and he stared at Uchiha Gin and Uchiha Guang seriously, and said slowly,
"I asked you to come today, actually there is something serious."
Long before unsealing Uchiha Guang, Uchiha Tajima had something on his hands that needed someone with a flexible mind, outstanding strength, and most importantly, reliability to handle.
"?"
Am I not going to fish in the dungeon until the founding of Konoha? How come I have to work overtime?
Uchiha Gin was a bit confused. The clan had many talents. Big cousin Uchiha Madara was wise and brave, little cousin Izuna... well, he was okay?
There were even talents like Uchiha Liuying and Uchiha Fenghuo in their prime. What did he need a salted fish like him for? He didn't have any specialties.
Just wondering what his shining point was that could enter Uchiha Tajima's eyes, Uchiha Gin suddenly shook his tiger body, and a possibility flashed in his mind.
Could it be...
Uchiha Gin's eyes changed suddenly, and his frowned brows could pinch a fly to death. He took a deep breath, looked at his dear uncle with torch-like eyes, and said to Uchiha Tajima with an expression of three parts resistance, six parts secret pleasure, and one part pride,
"Finally here?"
"Huh? You guessed it?"
Uchiha Tajima, who was about to speak, asked strangely when he heard his big nephew's tone full of emotion. Is this kid so well-informed?
"Alas, who told me I was born beautiful? Uncle, just say which clan's princess it is. For the sake of the family, I can sacrifice my beauty."
Uchiha Gin leaned against the wall, feeling sad, raised his head and lifted the few curly hairs blocking his eyes, revealing a smile he thought was handsome, and the light flashing from his big teeth blinded the remaining two people present.
"Pfft!!!"
Uchiha Tajima, who had just taken a sip of tea, sprayed all the tea liquid out, as if he had performed a Water Release ninjutsu.
And Uchiha Guang, who was standing to the side, fell into a daze, her wide-open small mouth couldn't close, and the pattern in her eyes turned into a demonic Mangekyō at some point.
"Cough cough cough... what are you thinking about, you mixed kid!"
Uchiha Tajima roared and threw the teacup over. Uchiha Gin, with sharp eyes, dodged to the side. The flying teacup smashed into the carved door that his uncle had just felt sorry for, and was deeply embedded in it.
As expected of the Uchiha clan head, his shuriken technique is simply superb.
"Isn't it asking me to go for a marriage alliance?"
Uchiha Gin looked at his uncle, who was jumping with rage, and touched his curly hair. He couldn't help but have big doubts in his heart. Isn't it coveting my beauty that shocks heaven and earth?
"When did I say marriage alliance! You have to know that our Uchiha clan never marries outside!"
Uchiha Tajima held his head, calmed the blue veins bursting on his forehead, and after finally smoothing out the breath he hadn't caught just now, he said to Uchiha Gin through gritted teeth.
"!!!"
Uchiha Guang, who was about to turn black again, suddenly lit up when she heard this sentence, and the black energy between her brows slowly dissipated.
That's right! The Uchiha clan is forbidden to marry outside the clan! Gin and that hateful brat won't have a result! Gin is just playing with that guy, and will eventually return to her embrace.
Thinking of this, the girl, who originally had some depression in her heart, suddenly figured it out. Her face, which originally had a few worries, was hung with a relieved smile. From now on, her status would be indestructible!
"Tell me earlier, you made me worry for nothing!"
Uchiha Gin showed a look of regret, but his tone carried a bit of luck, as if he were saying he had escaped a disaster.
"When did I say!!!"
Uchiha Tajima's fist hardened. Now this kid is getting more and more punchable. His old fist is itching, so he'll go practice Izuna later.
Izuna, who was being beaten by his big brother in the backyard, suddenly felt a chill in his waist, scaring him to turn back to check, but found nothing.
"Izuna! How can you be distracted during battle!"
Uchiha Madara's big sword fell in response, slashing straight at the kid's forehead, making him scream.
"Hagoromo clan, do you have any impression?"
After finally calming down the restlessness in his heart, Uchiha Tajima raised his head and said to Uchiha Gin.
"Hagoromo clan?"
Uchiha Gin's dead memory began to attack his brain. After thinking for a while, Uchiha Gin touched his chin, and replied with complex emotions in his tone,
"Is it the family that once cooperated with us? Haven't heard their news in these years."
Hagoromo clan, isn't it the family he encountered during his second playthrough that had a cooperative relationship with the Uchiha clan?
It is said that they have some stuff, but later they were hammered by the Senju clan, and the employer behind their family seemed to want to abandon them.
"That's right, the Hagoromo clan was once considered a big clan in the Land of Fire, but unfortunately, they were cleaned up by the Senju clan several times, and now they are on the verge of extinction."
There is no way, the world is now the law of the jungle, only the strong can survive, and the weak will only disappear in the vortex of time.
"Why mention them?"
Uchiha Gin recalled that he seemed to have been pitted by a guy from the Hagoromo clan, but it was thanks to him that he was able to start his second playthrough and return to this world.
"Some time ago, the clan head of the Hagoromo clan died in battle, and the young and strong in the clan were basically slaughtered. The remaining old, weak, sick, and young can no longer support the operation of a big clan."
After all, there was cooperation. Even if he looked down on the other party, the current situation of the other party made Uchiha Tajima sigh somewhat. A flash of struggle flashed in his eyes, and then he said lightly,
"Now, the remaining clan members of the Hagoromo clan have entrusted a mission to our Uchiha clan."
"Mission?"
Uchiha Gin was a bit surprised when he heard this word. Those who can fight are all dead, do they still want to hire us for revenge?
"Not really, rather than a mission, it's more like a request."
Recalling the humble posture of the Hagoromo clan's representative when he came to the door, Uchiha Tajima sighed slightly and said.
"What is the reward?"
Compared to the content of the mission, Uchiha Gin was more curious about what this family, which had nothing left, could take out to hire the Uchiha clan.
"Don't you ask about the content of the mission?"
Uchiha Tajima raised his eyebrows. This kid doesn't play cards according to the routine, then looked at Uchiha Gin with deep eyes, making him feel hairy.
"You are the clan head, you have the final say."
Uchiha Gin immediately recognized the advice, you are old, you want to say what you want to say.
"The Hagoromo clan entrusted us to escort their old and young to the Land of Lightning."
Uchiha Tajima nodded with satisfaction, spread out a map, and threw it to Uchiha Gin.
Land of Lightning? That country full of black laborers?
Uchiha took the map and began to examine the full picture of the current Ninja World. The Land of Fire was in the center, and the destination of the mission was the Land of Lightning in the northeast corner of the Land of Fire.
It is said that there are towering mountains everywhere, clouds and mist are lingering all year round, and the deafening sound of thunder echoes in the sky from time to time.
"Why go to such a remote country?"
Even if the Hagoromo clan is withered, it shouldn't go to such a place where birds don't shit, right? The Land of Fire is fertile and the climate is pleasant.
They can hide, hide their strength and bide their time for more than ten years, and mix in when Konoha is founded, directly changing from a bicycle to a motorcycle.
"The Land of Fire no longer has a place for them."
Uchiha Tajima saw Uchiha Gin's confusion, shook his head, and had no secrets from his big nephew.
"Do you know how Senju Butsuma actually died?"
