As an Uchiha I became the Jinchuriki of Senju Tobirama

Chapter 12: Legacy Unearthed



It was night.

Kazuki was sitting in a rocking chair in his room, his eyes closed, reflecting on what happened that day.

"Little ghost, what do you want to do..." Tobirama's voice sounded like a ghostly echo, but oddly enough, it also seemed to carry a hint of unmistakable doubt.

Kazuki paid no attention to him. Tobirama continued to speak for himself, analyzing the situation: “You say you believe in the will of fire, but I don’t believe you. For a dangerous and cunning little demon like you, it’s impossible for you not to see the fundamentals of the will of fire…”

“You want to infiltrate the Hokage circle and then seek benefits for the Uchiha clan?”

“No… If that was the case, why would you try to oppress that extreme boy named Uchiha Obito? Furthermore, you have been imitating my combat style, and these two things will naturally reduce your image within the Uchiha clan.”

“But the problem is that you, the little demon who has sealed me within your body, make me think that you are really dedicated to Konoha. Do you really think that I have fought during the Sengoku period without learning anything…”

"But you are the descendant of Kagami."

Even the wise and calm Senju Tobirama was confused at this moment.

From the perspective of interests, Kazuki's actions are definitely not welcome in the Uchiha clan.

Moreover, Senju Tobirama had to admit it.

Putting aside the fact that Kazuki had sealed his soul, and focusing on other things, Kazuki's character really had no flaws that Tobirama could point out.

Kazuki's humility and kindness were extremely rare even among the Senju.

But it all came back to square one: Tobirama couldn't let go of the fact that Kazuki had sealed his soul, since it was precisely his soul that had been sealed...

Is it really like Kazuki introduced himself at the beginning?

He is really not a twisted and crazy Uchiha who looks calm...

Is he really a good kid who goes to bed early and gets up early and wants to live a simple life. Faced with the conflict between the Uchiha clan and the village, he was forced to study the Kinjutsu to summon his soul and seek help?

When Senju Tobirama thought of this, a huge sense of absurdity engulfed him, and there was even a hint of guilt.

If that were the case, wouldn't it be that he himself had caused a talented Uchiha with the will of fire to become disillusioned with the village?

Senju Tobirama shook his head violently, ruling out this abstract possibility, and his eyes became firm again.

But his heart was inevitably shaken, because his expectations of Kazuki inevitably changed...

“Tobirama, I once read a book where I found a phrase that I really liked. ‘A gentleman is judged by his actions, not by his intentions.’” Kazuki said as he appeared in front of Tobirama and continued slowly: “It means that to judge a person’s goodness or evilness, you shouldn’t guess what he thinks inside, but rather see what he has done.”

"You are not only a Hokage, but also a scientific researcher, so you should understand that when you look at a person or a thing with a preset position, you have lost the objective perspective."

"You are a ninja I once respected, so I make an exception to reiterate to you...

“What I want to do is very simple: that good people live better, that the bad receive the punishment they deserve, with my justice, eradicate evil and promote good, bringing peace.”

Tobirama silently watched Kazuki, but even with his keen perception, he could only see sincerity in those eyes.

“Little devil, I will always be watching your movements.”

“Tobirama, I really need your wisdom to guide me. If you want to tell me something, feel free to speak up at any time.”

“Don’t call me Tobirama! You bastard kid, I am your grandfather’s master, from your great-grandfather’s generation!”

“Okay, okay. Tobirama, you’re already dead, why worry about such things?”

[From the target Senju Tobirama, you get the Kenjutsu (Senju Tobirama version)!]

The wonderful sound of gold coins exploding sounded. Kazuki looked at Tobirama, who was still arguing about hierarchy, and suddenly burst out laughing.

That smile was exactly the same as when Tobirama first saw Kazuki, as if he was seeing a bountiful harvest…

Tobirama was suddenly startled, and heard Kazuki say to him: “Good night, Tobirama. "

Darkness enveloped Senju Tobirama's vision again.

Kazuki changed his clothes while humming a little tune in a good mood. “No matter how much, there is always some harvest. Tobirama’s Kenjutsu is not bad at all, it’s time to buy a sword…”

“Ah, right, there seem to be several good swords from the Sengoku period in the house’s storage room. I must go and see them tomorrow morning.”

As Kazuki finished his milk, did warm-up exercises, and fell into a deep sleep, that night, many people in Konoha couldn't sleep.

In the next room, Shisui tossed and turned, thinking about how to improve his strength as soon as possible. He felt that Kazuki was under too much pressure.

Might Guy, accompanied by Might Dai, excitedly ran around Konoha. The recognition from Kazuki made him full of motivation.

Nohara Rin lay on her bed, unconsciously looking at the moon through the window, thinking about the tickling feeling when Kazuki's fingers touched her throat, and her face flushed again.

Kakashi stared at the short sword in his hand, wondering if he would have a chance to win if he and Kazuki really fought.

Asuma stood in the courtyard of Sarutobi Hiruzen's house, stole his brother's cigarette, stared at the swirling smoke, and his mind was filled with Kazuki, Uchiha and the Will of Fire.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was not at home. He was concentrating on writing the test paper in the Hokage's office, setting questions for the subject that Kazuki was looking forward to.

Uchiha Obito received the warm attention of the Uchiha clan elders led by Uchiha Setsuna, receiving unprecedented attention. After all, a seven-year-old super genius with the two-tomoe Sharingan is extremely rare in the thousand-year history of the Uchiha.

Senju Tobirama was thinking in the dark. He was increasingly unable to see through Kazuki, but this aroused his curiosity and competitive spirit.

Uchiha Madara, who was living in seclusion in the cave, also received news from Obito and Kazuki through White Zetsu at this moment. He looked at the information in his hand and pondered.

From Konoha to the Shinobi World, this chaotic world and chessboard for shinobi to dance on, because of Kazuki's sudden appearance, the fate line was slightly shaken.

Kazuki slept soundly.

...

The next day.

Kazuki brought Shisui to the long-forgotten armory at home.

For students in ninja schools, kunai and shuriken are essential ninja tools, but few people bring katana to ninja school.

In most cases, katanas are advanced equipment used only by shinobi of Chunin rank or higher, who have inherited Kenjutsu from their clans.

And for Kazuki, who is proficient in water release, he doesn't really need a katana for close combat.

However, after Kazuki obtained Tobirama's Kenjutsu, finding a suitable katana became relevant.

Besides...

Kazuki looked at Shisui, whose face was lit up with a difficult-to-contain emotion and smiled lightly. “Shisui, if you wanted any of these weapons, you just had to tell me first. These are all from our family, so they are yours too…”

Due to the early death of Uchiha Kagami and Kazuki's parents also dying in the Second Great Shinobi War, now only he and Shisui were left to inherit the legacy of this family branch.

The entire great fortune passed into the hands of Kazuki and Shisui, and although they did not dedicate themselves to being ninjas, they were already considered rich young men.

Shisui smiled with a slightly blushing expression and, without saying a word, looked eagerly at Kazuki, urging him with his gaze to open the arsenal.

In fact, Shisui did not mention his interest in swords before for fear that his exceptional swordsmanship might injure Kazuki, who at the time was far below him in skill, thus creating a barrier between them.

But after Kazuki used his strength to tell Shisui why he was his younger brother, Shisui's mentality changed, his personality became cheerful and lively, and he also enjoyed the feeling of being protected.

Kazuki shrugged, ignoring Shisui, who was still blushing, and opened the door to the armory. They looked inside in surprise.

It was a room filled with a variety of weapons, with many iconic tools of the Uchiha clan, scrolls, explosive seals, smoke bombs, heavy armor from the Sengoku period, and texts on eye techniques and ninjutsu.

It was evident that the stored tools were expensive or of great collectible value.

'It's worthy of Uchiha Kagami, although he was only the clan leader for a few months before he died, this inheritance is truly rich…' Kazuki thought as he examined each sword hanging on the wall.

Although the swords had been in the arsenal for a long time and dust had begun to accumulate on their blades, each sword still emanated a cold murderous aura, as if each one had drunk the blood of many enemies.

Shisui, eyes shining with excitement, looked at and touched the weapons in the arsenal, choosing a sword and playing with it with great joy.

Kazuki stopped his eyes on a katana hanging in the middle of the wall.

The sword was cold and translucent white, with an extremely sharp blade. Just getting close to it, Kazuki's skin seemed to ache from the intensity of its edge.

Whose sword is this?

Kazuki thought that the katanas that may appear here should all be from the famous Uchiha of the Sengoku Period.
