Chapter 156

Nohara Rin also joined the discussion.

"I do know a bit about Jin-kun."

"I have many friends in Class B, and he was quite famous when he was in school."

"But it wasn't because he was a genius; on the contrary, like Obito, he was also a dead-last in the class."

"What really made him famous was that the Uchiha clan ostracized him."

"He was very lonely!"

"If Obito was just looked down upon by the clan, at least he had friends like us, but Jin was directly bullied within the Uchiha."

"Many people have seen Uchiha clansmen go to trouble him several times!"

"..."

Everyone fell silent.

No one had expected that Uchiha Jin's childhood would be so miserable.

Even the young Itachi was shocked.

He clearly hadn't expected such things to happen within the Uchiha clan.

Before, he couldn't understand.

Why, as an Uchiha, he had never heard of Jin in the clan.

Even this time when Uchiha Jin awakened the Mangekyo and became a top genius in the clan, it seemed no clansmen were discussing it.

For the Uchiha, who viewed honor as life, this was simply unimaginable.

Now, he understood.

Jin suffered so much humiliation in his childhood; it would be strange if he had any feelings for the Uchiha.

Other clansmen seeing Uchiha Jin become powerful, I imagine their hearts must be particularly complex.

For a moment.

He seemed to understand his teacher a little bit.

Just at this moment, Ayame walked over.

Girls, after all.

Were naturally very gossipy.

Seeing everyone talking about Jin, and not being very busy now, she joined in immediately.

"You guys still don't understand Jin."

"Although I don't know the reason, after Jin's parents died when he was young, his parents' pension was embezzled, and the clan didn't care about his life or death, leaving him to fend for himself."

"It was seven or eight years ago; you can't even imagine."

"At that time, Jin was only a little over four years old, and to survive, he ran over to discuss with my father, hoping that my father could give him a cheaper price since he planned to eat at our house every day."

"When he explained his encounter—parents dead and the clan not caring—my father softened immediately."

"You know, our shop doesn't do business in the morning."

"Since then, Jin not only ate lunch and dinner at our house every day, but my father even let Jin eat breakfast with our family."

"As for the meal money, Jin's parents left him a little."

"Considering Jin's self-esteem, my father would accept it if he paid, but even if he didn't have any, my father wouldn't ask for it."

"So Jin-kun is actually like half a son to my father."

"Also, Jin-kun actually used to help in our shop, but because he had to go to school at that time, he could only come to help with the preparation work before opening, so naturally you wouldn't see him."

"..."

Ayame chattered away.

She was an optimistic and cheerful person, and Jin's past wasn't something to avoid.

Considering Jin's childhood past, she also knew Jin basically had no friends.

Completely treating Uchiha Jin as a younger brother, Ayame naturally wanted to help this 'younger brother'.

Plus, she knew Namikaze Minato was a decent person.

So, after pondering for a moment.

She suddenly spoke up: "So, do you understand now?"

"Jin-kun's life used to be quite miserable, and it only got a little better recently after becoming a ninja."

"It is precisely because of his childhood encounters that he is quite introverted, and for so many years, he basically hasn't had a single friend."

"Brother Minato, I know you are a good person."

"So if possible, I hope you can help guide him."

"Even if it's just to make friends with him!" ===== CHAPTER 157 =====
