282. Chapter 280: There is no ancestor more loving than Kaguya

"Swish~ Swish~"

After finishing the proposal in his hand, Uchiha Gin slowly raised his head and looked with astonishment at the Uchiha clansman before him, who was dressed in such gorgeous attire that he looked less like a ninja and more like a noble, and asked,

"Did you write this plan?"

The clansman, trembling beneath the dais, shuddered upon hearing this, then raised his head with a look of panic.

"In reply to Lord Gin, this lowly one wrote it."

"You fellow, although your strength is average, your talent in this area is not bad~"

With a sweeping glance, the clansman's captain-level strength was laid bare in Uchiha Gin's eyes. He casually handed the proposal to Uchiha Tian Dao at his side.

"Old Uncle, you've really struck gold; this kid is material for making money."

"Proposal for Establishing a Shipping Company in the Land of Waves"

Looking at the cover of the proposal, Uchiha Tian Dao was somewhat confused.

"Isn't this just a front used to swindle money from that kid Senju Tobirama?"

"No, this plan is feasible, and it can make a lot of money."

The current Ninja World will enter a state of relative peace for a long time. We can take advantage of this excellent opportunity while everything is waiting to be rebuilt to swallow the cake of maritime transport all by ourselves. This is a great business that brings in gold every day.

"But the Land of Water won't easily give up the maritime routes, will they?"

Old Uncle could also be considered someone who had been immersed in the politics of great nations for many years, and he immediately identified the primary problem. Compared to the Land of Waves, the Land of Water had a larger maritime presence, and even though it had been severely damaged by the Land of Whirlpools before, it still occupied a large area of the northern seas.

"The Land of Water? They can barely protect themselves now; they can't hold onto those sea areas."

Having experienced the war with the Land of Earth, the Land of Water not only failed to gain any benefits but also suffered heavy losses, not to mention the astronomical price paid for purchasing Tailed Beasts. For a long time to come, even the ninja dogs of the Hidden Mist Village will have to work 007, and they simply won't be able to spare anyone to garrison such a vast expanse of sea.

"Good, as long as you think it's feasible, then go ahead and do it."

Uchiha Tian Dao trusted this magical nephew of his ten thousand percent, and immediately gave his support.

"Here, leave this matter to you to handle. The dividends for the clansmen in the second half of the year will all depend on you; don't let us down~"

Uchiha Gin didn't dawdle either, handing the proposal back to the clansman and letting him be fully responsible.

"Thank you, Clan Head! Thank you, Lord Gin!"

Excitedly taking the proposal, the clansman's eyes were filled with joy. In fact, this proposal was not a last-minute rush job, but one he had been meticulously polishing for a long time. It was just that he never had the opportunity to present it. Fortunately, Uchiha Gin had a discerning eye for talent, and he would certainly repay this kindness of a talent scout.

"That... Lord Gin, this money?"

Having calmed down, the clansman looked at the scroll in his hand and felt it burning his touch. If the shipping company were really established, Senju Tobirama would definitely be able to get a share of the profits, and letting the Senju make money was even more uncomfortable than his own losses.

"Keep it; it can just serve as start-up capital."

Angel investment for free—might as well use it.

"But I had previously agreed with that guy Senju Tobirama on the dividend arrangements."

The clansman said with some difficulty. At this moment, his heart was full of regret; if he had known, he would have pushed the dividend date further back.

Uchiha Gin's eyes rolled, and he said,

"No matter. You use a portion of the dividends to stabilize him first. As for the next portion... you just tell him the company has just been established and still needs capital turnover, and you'll give him his share after it becomes profitable."

"Will this work?"

The clansman was somewhat doubtful. Everyone in the Uchiha clan knew that Senju Tobirama was insidious and cunning, and not easy to fool.

"No problem. As long as you share the financial reports regularly, paint a big picture for him, and send some local specialties during holidays, that guy will definitely not suspect anything."

Anyway, that white-haired guy doesn't have long to live and certainly won't be able to enjoy many dividends. Let's use this money to reward my own hard work~

"By the way, remember to include the Land of Whirlpools in this plan; don't go it alone~"

Thinking of his good neighbor, Uchiha Gin specifically instructed.

"Yes!"

The Uchiha clansmen in the Land of Waves naturally knew of their friendly, close-knit relationship with the Uzumaki clan. When it came to making money, they certainly had to bring their brothers along.

And Uchiha Tian Dao at the side, upon hearing this, laughed very teasingly.

"Haha~ When are you planning to marry their Daimyo, you rascal?"

"Uh... let's wait until the Ninja World is at peace~"

After that clansman left in high spirits, Uchiha Gin and Uchiha Tian Dao chatted about the recent situation in Konoha.

"You're saying that kid Madara wants to be Hokage?"

"That's right. For the sake of being Hokage, my cousin has even started working for free, spending every day by Senju Hashirama's side. I can't stop him even if I try~"

Having finally caught a chance to report to the elders, how could Uchiha Gin not file a complaint against the spendthrift Uchiha Madara? That'll teach you to secretly plot against me, kid.

"Sigh... what about the clan? Has that kid just abandoned it entirely?"

Uchiha Tian Dao asked with deep distress. It was all his own fault for being too soft-hearted and not letting that rebellious son marry early, leading to such a disgraceful situation now.

"Fortunately, my little cousin is capable and manages the clan in an orderly fashion; it can be considered a blessing for the Uchiha."

"That kid Izuna is also past the age for marriage; is he still single now?"

Could it be that I, Uchiha Tian Dao, will have no descendants?

"My little cousin... I heard recently that he seems to have some interest in a civilian Uchiha girl."

After thinking for a moment, Uchiha Gin recalled the rumors he had heard recently. It was circulating in the streets that Uchiha Izuna, relying on the great power in his hands, wanted to forcibly take the only daughter of the Uchiha fruit shop owner, and the neighbors all despised him for it.

After all, the fruit shop owner's daughter was only fourteen this year, while my little cousin was almost thirty. Who wouldn't spit on that when they heard it~

"Civilian? It doesn't matter, as long as she's a woman. Leave this matter to you to handle; I want to hold a grandson by next year!"

As the eldest brother is like a father, Uchiha Tian Dao, who had retired behind the scenes, was not in a position to come forward. The matter of Uchiha Izuna's happiness for the rest of his life fell upon Uchiha Gin.

Afterwards, the two chatted about many things regarding Konoha until the sun sank below the horizon, and only then did Uchiha Gin stop the pleasantries.

"I should go; otherwise, the people at home will get suspicious."

Looking up at the slowly rising moon, so bright and white that one couldn't help but stare, Uchiha Gin stood up and bid farewell to his Old Uncle.

"Gin, come home often."

"You got it, Old Uncle~"

Uchiha Gin nodded, then activated the Flying Thunder God Technique, intending to leave the Land of Waves and return to Konoha.

With a flash of golden light, Uchiha Gin's figure disappeared from the spot.

However, at this moment in Konoha, the figure of a certain curly-haired person did not appear.

Uchiha Gin's Flying Thunder God Technique, which was usually foolproof, had uncharacteristically gone wrong.

Just as he was performing the Flying Thunder God Technique and disappeared, a black hole suddenly appeared in the tunnel composed of space power. Accompanied by astonishing suction, Uchiha Gin, caught off guard, plunged headfirst into it.

The feeling of being dragged by an inexplicable, immense force was very unpleasant, and the violent jolting almost shook Uchiha Gin's bile out. Fortunately, this experience only lasted for a very short time.

"Thump~"

Accompanied by the sound of landing, Uchiha Gin, who climbed up from the soft ground, held his slightly dizzy head and slowly opened his eyes. He wanted to see which blind fellow dared to plot against him.

"I'm going to..."

"Hmph~ I told you I could drag him over."

However, the cold female voice that reached his ears froze Uchiha Gin, who was just about to erupt, in his tracks. Raising his head to look at the two familiar figures before him, he subconsciously swallowed his saliva.

"Gulp~"

The sound was clearly audible in the silent space.

Only then did Uchiha Gin realize that he was actually in the Otsutsuki Palace on the moon. Looking at the familiar decorations around him, he confirmed it was the Star-Gazing Terrace of Otsutsuki Kaguya.

"Hi~ Long time no see."

Being stared at tightly by two pairs of pure white, flawless eyes, Uchiha Gin, feeling somewhat uncomfortable, had to bite the bullet and greet them.

"Biluo, Kaguya, it's been a few days, I've missed you so much~"

"Gin~"

Seeing Otsutsuki Biluo fly over and wrap her arms around Uchiha Gin's neck, her delicate body, filled with a mature and intoxicating scent, pressed tightly against him. Her beautiful yet holy face was filled with resentment.

"You never come to see me!"

A girl in love is forever eighteen. Even if Otsutsuki Biluo's age was an indescribable number, it didn't hinder her little-girl demeanor at this moment, hanging on Uchiha Gin and becoming a happy burden.

"I've been a bit busy lately, I was just preparing to come see you in a few days."

Uchiha Gin scratched his face helplessly, feeling the bouncy, ample breasts against his chest. His expression was very complex, but his eyes couldn't help but glance downward uncontrollably.

These white ones are really milky~

"What about me?"

Just as Uchiha Gin and Otsutsuki Biluo were being affectionate, the complexion of Otsutsuki Kaguya, who had been left aside for half a day, grew increasingly foul. Does this hateful curly-haired thief only have eyes for big breasts?

"Did you drag me here?"

Uchiha Gin, interrupted, wasn't annoyed. After soothing Otsutsuki Biluo in his arms and letting her down, he looked at the cold-faced Otsutsuki Kaguya before him and asked with a frown.

But Otsutsuki Kaguya didn't answer, as if she were sulking. Because her beautiful eyes were pure white, Uchiha Gin wasn't sure if she was taking the opportunity to roll her eyes at him.

"It was Sister Kaguya who dragged you over. I didn't expect it to actually succeed."

Otsutsuki Biluo, seeing this scene, smiled and explained.

"Tsk! When did you get this ability?"

Being able to forcibly pull him out of a space tunnel—did this Otsutsuki Kaguya also awaken a system and prepare to cheat her way to the top?

"Tenseigan."

Her cold gaze fell on Uchiha Gin's face. Otsutsuki Kaguya intentionally or unintentionally puffed out her chest and answered expressionlessly. Her voice was holy and ethereal.

Uchiha Gin suddenly realized. So it was the ability of the Tenseigan. That made sense; after all, it was the legendary Eye of the Sage, so having some space ability wasn't too overpowered.

"Why did you drag me up here?"

After understanding the reason why he appeared on the moon, Uchiha Gin asked the culprit of this matter with some confusion. The day he had agreed upon with Otsutsuki Biluo hadn't arrived yet, had it?

"It was Sister Biluo."

Otsutsuki Kaguya answered without changing her expression.

"Ah? Wasn't it your own self-assertion?"

Otsutsuki Biluo, who was cuddling with Uchiha Gin, was suddenly stunned upon hearing this, then looked at the ice-mountain-like Otsutsuki Kaguya, her eyes full of question marks.

"Oh?"

Uchiha Gin's eyes became sharp. Biluo definitely wouldn't lie, so there was only one culprit!

"Hmph~ Let's have a fight!"

Since she had been exposed, Otsutsuki Kaguya no longer covered it up. Her purpose in dragging Uchiha Gin up this time was to compete with him.

"No, why fight for no reason? Why don't we all sit down and drink tea first~"

Fighting was one of the two things Uchiha Gin hated most in his life, especially when there was no enmity or grudge between them. Dancing with swords and guns at every turn was bad for the relationship.

"I want to prove that we Otsutsuki are the orthodox Byakugan!"

Following Otsutsuki Kaguya's voice, a layer of cyan-green chakra cloak began to emerge on her plump, delicate body. Her snow-white hair moved without wind, and her flawless, bright white eyes slowly transformed into the pupils Uchiha Gin was familiar with.

【Otsutsuki Kaguya - Tenseigan Mode】

"Didn't you and Xiao Guang have enough fun fighting before? Why are you itching for a fight again so soon?"

Looking at the battle-ready Otsutsuki Kaguya, Uchiha Gin scratched his curly head helplessly.

"Hmph~ That woman, her ocular jutsu is just a bit tricky; in other aspects, she's just a chicken."

Heh, if it weren't for the fact that you happened to awaken the ability to summon the statue of the Great-Granduncle, you little girl would have long been chopped into pieces by Xiao Guang driving her Gundam.

"Now, I have comprehended all the abilities of the Tenseigan. It is time to decide who is the orthodox Otsutsuki."

Otsutsuki Kaguya didn't give an inch, her eyes, already transformed into Tenseigan, staring fixedly at Uchiha Gin.

In her view, Uchiha Gin, who could also use the Tenseigan's abilities, wasn't worthy of the name Otsutsuki at all.

"Orthodox Otsutsuki? I'm not, don't talk nonsense!"

Upon hearing the words "Orthodox Otsutsuki," Uchiha Gin subconsciously shrank his neck. The mixed blood in his body was fusing and sublimating every moment. He was just waiting to accumulate enough bloodline concentration, and he could probably ascend on the spot and become the first pure-blooded alien in the Ninja World.

"Verbose."

Not wanting to waste any more words with Uchiha Gin, Otsutsuki Kaguya's eyes narrowed, and the aura emanating from her body made everyone pause. She raised her snow-white, soft hands, and several chakra beads appeared out of thin air.

"Hold on!"

Uchiha Gin knew this battle was unavoidable, so he straightened his expression and, just before Otsutsuki Kaguya made her move, raised his hand and shouted.

"Cut the crap."

Otsutsuki Kaguya didn't indulge him. The chakra beads in her hands began to spin rapidly, and a visible vortex appeared on the girl's palm.

"No, Big Sister, you borrowed the power of the Tenseigan, what am I supposed to use?"

Uchiha Gin, who shouted for a timeout, wasn't trying to delay time, but after he communicated with the Tenseigan on the moon, it fed back to him that he couldn't "log in" to the account; he had to wait until the original owner had played enough before he could continue.

Isn't this awkward?

"..."

Not expecting things to develop this way, Otsutsuki Kaguya, who had already laid down the harsh words, couldn't do a half-hearted job.

Seeing her cold, beautiful face stiffen slightly, her eyes drifting, she didn't answer Uchiha Gin's words, but the Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion in her hand subconsciously weakened by a few points.

"With me possessing the Tenseigan, victory is inevitable."

After a long while, Otsutsuki Kaguya, who was clearly somewhat embarrassed, forced out a familiar harsh line, the general meaning being to mock Uchiha Gin for being a "little brother" without a Tenseigan.

"Yes, Kaguya-chan is the best~"

Adhering to the principle that one less battle is better than one more, Uchiha Gin took the opportunity to flatter the girl.

"Who allowed you to call me that! You must call me Queen!"

Hearing Uchiha Gin's intimate address, Otsutsuki Kaguya trembled with anger, and the Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, fully charged with power, smashed over without any courtesy.

"Gin, be careful!"

Otsutsuki Biluo, beside Uchiha Gin, tightened her expression. She didn't expect Otsutsuki Kaguya to be serious. Wasn't it agreed that they would get along well with Uchiha Gin and contribute their strength to the Otsutsuki clan's reproduction cause?

Facing the incoming Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, Uchiha Gin didn't choose to dodge, but instead showed a helpless expression, "Sigh... still have to fight, huh~"

Uchiha Gin slowly opened his slightly narrowed, dead-fish eyes. His black pupils were already stained with scarlet, and within one of them, three mysterious tomoe spun rapidly, gradually condensing into a complex and bewitching pattern.

"I don't know how well I've practiced it, just in time for a live-combat drill."

Accompanied by a bone-chilling cold, Otsutsuki Kaguya felt a cold and obscure ocular power overflowing from Uchiha Gin before her. The aura of this ocular power was far deeper than that of the black-haired girl who had been defeated by her before.

So this curly-haired thief wasn't just a guy relying on the power of the Tenseigan to do whatever he wanted.

Otsutsuki Kaguya was secretly shocked. Just now, after hearing Uchiha Gin's words, although she was a bit angry, she didn't use the full-power Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion; she just wanted to scare this curly-haired guy.

"Wangliang."

Seeing that the Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion was about to give him a new hairstyle, Uchiha Gin raised his eyebrows. The bewitching pattern in his single eye turned, and the black shadow in front of him rippled, from which a black figure slowly rose.

"This is?"

Otsutsuki Biluo, who was worried on the side, was about to perform the Butterfly Transformation Technique, but was startled by the black figure that suddenly appeared in front of Uchiha Gin.

On the open ground in front of Uchiha Gin, a black-skinned girl slowly rose, wearing a pure white, tight-fitting kimono. Her waist-length hair and cold, indifferent eyes were all grayish-white. Her beautiful face was a mix of nobility, charm, and holiness, with a hint of playfulness between her brows.

"Who is she?"

Equally confused was Otsutsuki Kaguya. Even if she racked her brains, she couldn't figure out how Uchiha Gin could conjure a person out of thin air.

"Hehe~ Stupid, right! She is my ocular jutsu creation. All her actions and behaviors are under my control; you could say she is my clone."

Looking with satisfaction at the astonished Otsutsuki duo, Uchiha Gin waved his hand, preparing to let Wangliang, who had turned into a black-skinned young lady, give these bumpkins a taste of Mangekyo shock.

"Wangliang, it's time to... uh???"

However, just as Uchiha Gin was feeling smug, he suddenly discovered that the Wangliang he summoned was a bit different from usual.

The previous Wangliangs were all empty-handed, but this time, the Wangliang that appeared actually brought her own weapon, and it was a short weapon at that.

"Buzz buzz buzz~"

"What is that thing you're holding???"

That familiar shape, that high-frequency vibrating sound, made Uchiha Gin throw all his previous smugness to the side. After a brief stupor, he pointed at the special weapon in Wangliang's hand and roared.

"..."

Wangliang, possessed by the ancestor, consistently adhered to the core philosophy of "I am a mute." Facing the aggressive Uchiha Gin, she ignored him completely, instead dual-wielding the vibrating "weapon," striking a battle stance, and looking expressionlessly at Otsutsuki Kaguya opposite her.

"Eww~ You curly-haired thief, you're actually a pervert."

As a shut-in who had read many books for many years, Otsutsuki Kaguya recognized the object in Wangliang's hand at first glance. For the first time, a look of disgust appeared on her cold face, and she subconsciously took a few steps back, trying to put some distance between herself and Uchiha Gin.

"Ara ara~ Gin, what do you want me to say about you~"

As someone who had been there, Otsutsuki Biluo, who knew the taste well, appeared somewhat teasing. She licked her full lips with seductive eyes, looking at the livid Uchiha Gin, her sticky voice full of temptation.

"I really didn't! It's all a misunderstanding!"

It's over. If I had known, I wouldn't have said Wangliang was my clone. Now it's like yellow mud falling into my pants—even if it's not shit, it's still shit.

"No need to explain, Mr. Curly-haired Pervert Thief."

The address suddenly became increasingly strange.

Otsutsuki Kaguya shook her head. Although she didn't understand, she didn't respect it either. She then signaled Uchiha Gin not to be futile, turning her gaze to the ready-to-go Wangliang. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.

From this black woman before her, Otsutsuki Kaguya vaguely sensed a familiar aura; it was a palpitation deeply hidden in her bloodline.

"Sigh~ Wangliang! Quickly throw those two things back, who told you to take them!"

Uchiha Gin, trembling with anger, ordered through gritted teeth.

And Wangliang, who received Uchiha Gin's instruction, actually hesitated for a rare moment, a hint of dissatisfaction flashing obscurely across her face, before obediently throwing the two indescribable "weapons" back into the Realm of Shadows.

This ninja tool aimed at women was clearly very useful!

Wangliang, feeling somewhat indignant in her heart, looked at Otsutsuki Kaguya, who was in Tenseigan mode, with a hint of appreciation in her eyes.

This descendant is not bad; the Otsutsuki bloodline is very pure, and she has also awakened the Tenseigan of that kid Hamura, only a tiny bit worse than that curly-haired brat.

However, the current Wangliang was not the once-mighty Otsutsuki Kaguya. Choosing to endure, she skillfully played her role, striking a battle stance against Otsutsuki Kaguya, waiting for Uchiha Gin's command.

"Wangliang, let her witness the bond between me and you!"

Without the indescribable object, Uchiha Gin instantly stood tall, waving his hand like a Super Newbie who had just accepted a Bug Catcher boy's challenge.

"Don't underestimate me!"

Not expecting Uchiha Gin to just dispatch Wangliang to fight her, Otsutsuki Kaguya, feeling her personality insulted, gritted her silver teeth and adjusted the Tenseigan to its maximum power, the cyan-blue chakra cloak around her body thickening by a few points.

"Disappeared?"

However, just after Otsutsuki Kaguya finished adjusting, she was surprised to find that Wangliang had disappeared from the spot. Her heart tightened, and she immediately activated her 360-degree blind-spot-free vision to search.

On the other side, Wangliang, who had long since sneaked into the Realm of Shadows, was currently standing in front of Otsutsuki Kaguya, whose eyes were rolling around, sizing up the excellent descendant before her.

"Soft-hearted," she eventually gave up the idea of a surprise attack from between Otsutsuki Kaguya's legs, then retracted the high-frequency vibrating rod-like object in her hand back into the weapon vault.

After all, the tolerance of a human and a puppet are different. If she studied it too much, something might really happen, right?

She, Otsutsuki Kaguya, is the most loving ancestor, after all~(End of chapter)
