Chapter 49: Lost Memories: It's So Exciting to Secretly Drive

~8 min read 1,448 words

The mysterious person waited for the Kaguya clan to verify the information, turned around, and disappeared into the night, while the Kaguya clan did not stop him.

After all, in their eyes, this sneaky guy was just a poor worm who couldn't rely on his own strength to take revenge.

Under the moonlight, the mysterious person took off his disguise. His old face looked very pale under the bathing of the moonlight, and the scarlet in his eyes slowly faded.

Uchiha Yao recalled the Kaguya clan he had just contacted, and the corners of his stiff mouth curled up slightly.

"This group of brainless lunatics can just happen to cover for me. When they are in a mess with the Uchiha clan, I can make my move."

"Gin, wake up quickly!"

Feeling the wetness on his face, Uchiha Gin slowly opened his eyes. Entering his sight was a slender girl crying like rain. Her tears flowed down her cheeks and dripped onto his face. Thirsty, he subconsciously stretched out his tongue to lick the water stains on the corner of his mouth.

Salty, sweet.

Seeing Uchiha Gin wake up, the girl rushed into his arms like a swallow returning to its nest, buried her head in the young man's chest, and said with a sobbing voice,

"Woo woo woo, I had a very strange dream. In the dream, there was no you, and I was so scared alone..."

Uchiha Gin, whose body was still a bit stiff, supported his body like this, letting the girl sob in his arms, and stretched out a hand to gently stroke the girl's black hair.

"It's okay, I will always be by your side."

"Really?"

The girl, whose nose was red from crying, raised her head and looked at Uchiha Gin's eyes with slightly red eyes, as if confirming something.

"Of course. Didn't you always say you only have me? If I don't take care of you, who will?"

Patting the girl's little head, Uchiha Gin signaled her to get up.

"Hmph, who said that? I can do it without you."

The girl, who realized her actions were a bit too intimate, immediately jumped up, turned her head, and pouted to defend herself.

"Alright, you two guys, stop being lovey-dovey here. It's making us two old guys' teeth ache."

The round Uchiha Yan teased.

Uchiha Gin then discovered that Uchiha Miao and Uchiha Yan, who had been sent away, had actually returned.

"Where is that old man?"

Thinking of the strangely behaving Uchiha Yao, the young man asked anxiously.

"The Clan Head has already ordered him not to continue participating in your research. You can rest assured."

Uchiha Miao, who was thin and lean on the side, explained, his cold eyes hiding a trace of concern.

"Do you have any discomfort, such as your eyes, brain, or anything?"

Hearing Uchiha Miao's words, Uchiha Gin immediately stated the problem of his vision decline, and Uchiha Hikari mentioned the "weapon" mentioned by Uchiha Yao's subordinates.

"Weapon?"

Hearing this strange term for the first time, Uchiha Gin looked at Uchiha Miao in confusion. The other party sighed and took out the document about the weapon of war plan.

Uchiha Gin glanced at it roughly and frowned, saying,

"Did that old man take the wrong medicine? He actually wants to cultivate me and Hikari into 'weapons of war' without consciousness?"

On this side, after Uchiha Tajima rejected the weapon of war plan compiled by Uchiha Yao, he returned to his residence alone.

His wife, who had just given birth to twins for him, was nursing the infant in her swaddling clothes, and a younger child was sleeping beside her.

In this era that did not pay attention to family planning, every ninja clan believed in having many children. Population represented combat power. Looking at his wife and children, Uchiha Tajima's cold and stern eyes became soft.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Uchiha Tajima sat on the edge of the tatami and carefully stroked his wife's weak body.

"It's okay. Where are Madara and Izuna?"

Uchiha Tajima's wife was a gentle and virtuous woman. Although she was the daughter of the previous Clan Head, she did not like fighting. Her gentle-as-water personality just happened to complement the sharp and strong Uchiha Tajima, so the two had an unexpectedly loving relationship.

"They have reached the age of fighting. I let them stay in the training room for a while to hone their temperament."

His eldest son, Uchiha Madara, and second son, Uchiha Izuna, could already go to the battlefield to participate in small-scale battles. Uchiha Tajima let them suffer more under his own hands so that they could suffer fewer injuries on the battlefield.

"Aiya, I haven't recovered yet!"

Hearing that the two sensible children had been sent away by her husband, the woman lying on the tatami looked charming and shy, and her voice became stickier as she said.

"What do you take me, Uchiha Tajima, for!"

The Clan Head raised his hand to press down on his impulsive brother and scolded righteously.

The Uchiha clan grounds in the night were peaceful, and the patrol teams were conscientiously patrolling around the clan grounds according to the route.

The pitch-black night could not affect the Uchiha clan, who possessed dynamic vision. As the route was about to end, several patrol members also relaxed their vigilance.

"Swish swish swish."

Only a very fast swishing sound was heard from the jungle. The patrol member walking in the front fell to the ground in response, and splashing blood bloomed on his body.

"Enemy attack!!!"

An alarm was sounded, and a sky-high flame rose into the air, then burst open. The remaining members quickly drew their weapons, opened their scarlet eyes, and rushed up without hesitation, attempting to buy time for the clan members behind them.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of figures appeared from the night. The Kaguya clan, each with a ferocious expression and a bloodthirsty aura, rushed toward them like hungry wolves. The patrol team of a few people disappeared into the rushing crowd in a single encounter, leaving behind a ground of incomplete limbs.

The breath of death, like an invisible large hand, slowly shrouded the quiet and peaceful Uchiha clan grounds.

Uchiha Gin, who was bored, lay on the bed in the institute, counting the stars all over the sky outside the window.

Suddenly, he saw a wisp of fire light up in the darkness in the distance. That was the unique alarm signal of the Uchiha clan.

Looking at the fire light that symbolized enemy attack in disbelief, Uchiha Gin did not hesitate, turned over, and ran out of the lounge.

At this time, the institute was already in a mess. The guards were gathering, and the researchers without combat power were busy packing up materials. The young man who had no time to manage these ran to a room door and knocked hard,

"Dong dong dong."

With the young man's heavy hammering, the door opened in response. The sleepy girl was holding a pillow, rubbing her eyes, and yawning.

"A-Gin, what's wrong again?"

"Someone is attacking the clan grounds."

The young man had no time to care about the separation of men and women, pulled the girl, and ran out.

"Where are you taking me?"

The girl, who was still in a daze, was dragged by the young man and ran wildly all the way.

Running all the way to the gate of the institute, a round figure was there directing the guards to gather. Seeing the young man and girl running out, he hurriedly shouted,

"Why are you running out? Go back quickly. The institute is much safer than outside."

Uchiha Yan had just received news from the peripheral clan members that a group of unidentified people were advancing toward the clan grounds at a very fast speed, accurately attacking all patrol teams and secret sentries along the way, catching them off guard.

"Let Xiao Guang go to a safe place, I also want to go and fight the enemy!"

Uchiha Gin protected the girl behind him, patted his chest toward Uchiha Yan, and looked at Uchiha Yan with scarlet eyes without any fear.

"I can also fight!"

"You don't need to be used in this situation now. Stay on the side."

Uchiha Yan was a bit amused. Although this group of enemies was coming fiercely, for the Uchiha clan, it was not a moment of life and death.

Their clan had existed for thousands of years. If such an attack could annihilate the whole clan, they would have long since ceased to exist.
