Chapter 322

Uchiha Jin muttered to himself.

Yes.

His performance just now was nine parts true, but there was that one part that was false.

He did indeed admire Namikaze Minato and liked his personality; if possible, he truly wouldn't mind changing his fate.

But, in essence.

Those nine parts of truth were just to cover up that one part of falsehood!

Uchiha Jin understood human nature!

If he had revealed even a tiny bit of his purpose, whether it was wanting to win over Namikaze Minato or anything else.

Then, out of human nature, Namikaze Minato would have been on guard.

And if you want to completely change a person's worldview, you naturally cannot let the other party get on guard.

Otherwise, you'd get half the result with twice the effort!

Therefore.

He used the name of doing it for Namikaze Minato's own good to constantly persuade him to be careful.

This act asked for no return.

It was all to lower his guard and hostility.

Because his feelings were real, Namikaze Minato naturally couldn't detect anything.

Then, by presenting facts and reasoning, he would shatter his worldview bit by bit.

Using "for your own good" as an excuse, he would unknowingly achieve his own goals.

Just as he said.

Free things are the most expensive!

It seemed like he hadn't achieved anything this time, but as long as he could change Namikaze Minato's worldview, the benefits he would gain would be enormous.

Namikaze Minato, the Yellow Flash.

The future reincarnation of Asura, Uzumaki Naruto.

And the Konoha Sannin Jiraiya, as well as the Mount Myoboku behind him.

Such a massive force—if his goal could be achieved, it would all be rendered useless.

Even if this force wouldn't help him, it would be enough as long as they didn't help Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Half an hour later.

Uchiha Jin, having returned home, saw Aburame Shibi and Aburame Ryoma standing outside the gate of his small courtyard.

"Jin-kun."

"Clan Head Shibi, you are too polite; let's go inside and talk."

The two exchanged a simple greeting, and Uchiha Jin pushed the door open to enter.

Aburame Shibi and Aburame Ryoma naturally followed behind him, all the way to the pavilion in the small courtyard.

After inviting the two to sit, Uchiha Jin went to make tea.

Approximately ten minutes later.

Uchiha Jin returned, poured a cup of tea for each of them, and couldn't help but smile as he spoke.

"This is good tea from the Hokage."

"I heard from the Hokage that there is only one such tea tree in the Land of Fire, and only the Daimyo of the Land of Fire is qualified to enjoy it."

"You two are lucky; don't be polite with me!"

Aburame Ryoma was completely bewildered.

Actually, let alone him.

Even Aburame Shibi, who was drinking this tea for the second time, had a look of utter embarrassment.

However.

Thinking of the serious business for which he had come, he took a simple sip of tea and stated his purpose directly.

"Jin-kun."

"I have already discussed the matter with Ryoma; when you head to the front lines this time, I hope you can take Ryoma with you."

"Because I can imagine that as soon as you leave the village, the Hokage's side will definitely make a move."

"Considering you, perhaps they won't move against the Uchiha for the time being!"

"But against a mid-tier ninja clan like the Aburame, Sarutobi Hiruzen will definitely act."

"After all, he needs to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys!"
