Chapter 117

"Umm umm umm~~~"

The purple-haired young woman's head was pinched tightly by her own biological daughter, and the whole person hummed in pain.

In the eyes of Uchiha Zhili, who had a strange smile, they had turned red at this moment. Her delicate sandalwood mouth opened slightly, but her 36-degree mouth said cold and bone-chilling words,

"My dear Mother, I see that you miss Father too much, so how about I send you down to reunite with him?"

"Little Zhili, wake up, it's Mommy~"

Hearing her daughter say such rebellious words, the young woman who was calm just now also softened, trying to use maternal love to wake up her daughter who had fallen into a strange state.

"I am very awake! Is it possible that Mother is sick?"

Two tomoe slowly rotated in her scarlet eyes, making the purple-haired young woman's teeth ache. She immediately cast a look of help to Uchiha Gin, who was watching the show on the side.

After years of getting along, Uchiha Gin, who knew the usual character of this mother and daughter, shook his head helplessly and got up to stop Uchiha Zhili, who was in a blackened state.

"Alright, alright, stop making trouble, you two."

Uchiha Gin had never considered the matter of taking an apprentice. After all, he was used to being lazy, and the sudden addition of a layer of bonds made him a bit unable to adapt.

But Uchiha Zhili was someone he had watched grow up since she was a child. The girl's visible talent was by no means inferior to his two cousins.

"If you are not worried about a pearl being covered in dust, let Zhili take me as her master."

"Quick, Zhili, why don't you pay respects to your Master!"

Hearing Uchiha Gin's words, Uchiha Yongmei, who was in pain, suddenly smiled like a flower. She easily pushed away the small hand that was pinching her head and said to Uchiha Zhili, who was stunned, with a giggle,

"Mr. Gin, you don't have to be embarrassed, Mother's words..."

The girl looked at her hands in confusion. She had really used her strength, so how could she be broken free by her mother so easily?

Uchiha Zhili, who couldn't figure it out, tilted her head and said to Uchiha Gin with an apologetic face,

"I am serious, little Zhili, your talent is very strong. If you get correct guidance, you will definitely become one of the top people in the clan in time."

Uchiha Gin's lazy temperament was swept away. At this moment, his serious face looked like a different person, full of reliable aura. His dead-fish eyes were bright at this moment, and he gave Uchiha Zhili a rare and high evaluation.

The purple-haired girl closed her mouth upon hearing this. Her usually calm eyes flashed with complex light. How could she not want to get guidance from others?

But her father died early, the training scrolls left behind had long been worn out by her, and her mother was busy making a living and had no time to take care of her training.

The training ground in the clan is not something you can enter if you want to. The girl, whose life was already difficult, had no time and money to soak in it all the time.

Now that there is an opportunity in front of her, looking at the man who occupies a special position in her heart, the girl had a trace of hesitation. If she becomes his apprentice, wouldn't she...

"Do you think I'm not good enough?"

Seeing the girl's hesitation, Uchiha Gin rolled up his sleeves to show Uchiha Zhili his strong biceps, held up a straight thumb, and his snow-white teeth shone brightly in the dazzling sunlight,

"Uncle, I am very strong!"

Uh... can I refuse?

Looking at Uchiha Gin, who had turned into an Uchiha beast, a trace of disgust flashed in the girl's eyes. Is it really okay to follow such a master?

"Cousin is very strong, don't miss it!"

Uchiha Izuna, who had finished the shaved ice, licked the spoon unfulfilled, his eyes turned slightly, looking at the silent girl in front of him, and couldn't help but remind her.

If cousin takes an apprentice, wouldn't he have no time to trouble him! Must match, must match!

Izuna couldn't wait to find something for Uchiha Gin to do, otherwise that guy would come to torture him every few days when he was idle.

"Indeed, I can't see through cousin's strength."

Uchiha Madara, who hadn't spoken, also came to add fuel to the fire, holding the same idea as Izuna, and coldly spoke up to justify Uchiha Gin. He didn't want to face the strange tentacles that Uchiha Gin used again.

???

Why did these two boys change their temperament today? They usually always go against him, why did they learn to speak for him now?

It seems that walking around more often is right. It can still come in handy at critical moments. It is really brotherly love. It seems that the frequency of walking around will have to be increased in the future.

"?!"

The two brothers who had just finished speaking suddenly felt a chill behind their backs. They thought they had eaten too much shaved ice. Looking up and seeing Uchiha Gin's gratified smile, their expressions froze all of a sudden.

Cousin! We didn't mean that, don't misunderstand!

Finally, under the witness of everyone, Uchiha Zhili and Uchiha Gin held a simple apprenticeship ceremony on the spot.

"Mr. Gin, no, Master."

The girl with a complex expression raised her head and changed the title for Uchiha Gin, who was in the seat of honor.

"Don't be so polite, little Zhili, just call me Mr. I've been used to it for so many years. It feels weird to suddenly call me Master."

Hearing the girl call him Master, Uchiha Gin's mind flashed with a few indescribable images, so he hurriedly dispelled these strange thoughts and let Uchiha Zhili continue to use the previous title.

"Okay, Mr. Gin."

Since she had already taken him as her master, the girl naturally followed the "reasonable" requirements.

"I'm also taking an apprentice for the first time, I don't have any experience."

Uchiha Gin scratched his head. He took little Zhili as an apprentice on impulse. It seems that in the novels he has read, the master should give the apprentice some treasures when taking an apprentice, so he immediately put his hand into the system backpack and fumbled around.

"Since I have become little Zhili's master, I can't do it without taking out some gifts. Master sees that you don't have a handy weapon, here, take this short sword as a meeting gift!"

Uchiha Gin fumbled in his backpack for a long time, finally took out a weapon he had used before, thought about it, and handed it to Uchiha Zhili, who was stunned.

No, where did Mr. Gin take out such a big thing?

Before Uchiha Zhili could be surprised by Uchiha Gin's four-dimensional chrysanthemum, as soon as she touched the weapon handed over by the other party, she felt the violent lightning chakra contained in the unremarkable gray short sword in her hand, which made her small hand slightly numb.

【Statikk Shiv】 After attacking the target 3 times, it causes additional Lightning Release damage and breaks defense.

"You can make do with this short sword first, and I will give you something else when I explode good things."

Uchiha Gin looked at the electric knife in the girl's hand with dissatisfaction. This thing was too ugly and didn't match little Zhili at all, but he didn't have better equipment on hand for the time being. He would change her into a set when he brushed out good equipment.

"No, thank you Mr. Gin, I like it very much."

Holding the electric knife in her arms, the manic lightning inside the short sword made this girl, who had always lacked a sense of security, feel very at ease.

Touching the weapon Uchiha Gin gave her, the girl showed a relieved smile and said to Uchiha Gin,

"Does this weapon have a name?"

"Uh, I usually call it an electric knife. It doesn't sound very imposing. Why don't you give it a new name?"

A weapon that even dogs don't use on the chessboard, what name do you want!

"Then, I'll call it the Sword of the Thunder God."

The girl held the short sword, golden lightning appeared around her, her long purple hair moved without wind, and the whole person was shrouded in golden light, like the Thunder God descending to the world.

Waving the crackling electric knife, the usually cold girl rarely showed the expression that a girl of this age should have.

???

Good job, you white-haired one, so you were plagiarizing my creativity!

Uchiha Gin gritted his teeth, looking at the girl who renamed the electric knife, and thought of a white-haired one in the future holding a crudely made "Sword of the Thunder God" to touch porcelain with his electric knife, and he was furious.

Hmph hmph, don't let me run into you, kid, or I'll let you know why flowers are so red.

"Congratulations cousin! Congratulations cousin! After so many years, you have finally found a beloved apprentice."

Uchiha Izuna sent his blessings at the right time, while his eyes stared straight at the electric knife in the girl's hand, and the saliva in his mouth was almost flowing out.

However, Uchiha Madara on the side, although surprised by the strange ninja tool in the girl's hand, was destined to take the fan, so he didn't have any covetousness for other weapons.

"This thing is useless for you, kid. I'll give you something else when I come back."

He could naturally see the hunger in his little cousin's eyes, but this kind of weapon was not suitable for him. Uchiha Gin remembered the future scenes clearly. Izuna's top priority now is to protect his kidneys.

"Hehe, thank you cousin!"

Getting Uchiha Gin's affirmative answer, a big smile bloomed on Izuna's face. That familiar appearance was exactly like a cheerful Sasuke.

"It's getting late, we should go back and continue training."

Uchiha Madara saw that the time was right, got up, and pulled Izuna to prepare to say goodbye.

"Hey? Cousin, you haven't paid yet!"

Uchiha Gin saw Uchiha Madara, who was preparing to grease the soles of his feet, and reminded him with a smile in his eyes. The price of losing the competition to him just now was to treat everyone to shaved ice. I didn't expect the thick-browed and big-eyed cousin to be such a person.

"We are all family now, do we still need to be so clear?"

Uchiha Madara was silent for a while, looking at Uchiha Zhili, who was waving the short sword excitedly, and answered with an inexplicable tone. This excuse was too stiff.

"Oh, take out the clan leader's pattern. The Uchiha clan leader won't rely on his identity to eat without paying, right?"

Uchiha Gin raised his eyebrows and teased.

Uchiha Madara, knowing that he couldn't escape, had to silently take out his purse, put down a few banknotes, and then turned and left with his stunned little cousin.

"Hey, this guy~"

Uchiha Gin shook his head helplessly. This cousin is not stingy and wants to escape the bill, but feels that he still has the means to turn the tables in that game just now, and didn't really lose to him.

"Little Zhili, unfortunately, Master just took an outside mission, so the guidance can only be discussed after I come back."

Watching the two cousins leave, Uchiha Gin turned his head and poured a bucket of cold water on the excited girl. He indeed had a mission now and had no time to teach the girl.

"That's right, we do have a mission to go out."

Uchiha Hikari, who had been silent on the side, spoke at this time. The look in her eyes when looking at Uchiha Zhili no longer had any guard. She was already an apprentice, so what kind of waves could she make for me?

Hehe, this wave of advantage is with me again!
