As an Uchiha I became the Jinchuriki of Senju Tobirama

Chapter 18: Kazuki’s Guide to Winning Friends and Influencing Ninja



"Kazuki-kun...Will this be too unfair to you?" Yashiro looked at Kazuki with respect, his face was hesitant, and there was even a hint of heartache.

"It's nothing, just change into new clothes and go, all this is for the Uchiha clan." Kazuki stuffed the clothes that Shisui brought into the hands of Yashiro and patted his shoulder vigorously. "Yashiro, there are scoundrels in the clan, and they have occupied high positions. This is a very unfavorable situation for the clan and us. My strength is not enough to quell the endless troubles, so I need you to help me hide."

"My personal reputation is not important. A small concession is more conducive to my plan, but if you think that a certain clan member needs to be protected, then try to do it secretly..."

"However, there is no need to have a psychological burden. Although I believe in your ability, I am the one who will carry the future of the Uchiha clan."

Kazuki sighed resignedly, showing a tired but confident smile.

Yashiro stared at Kazuki blankly, tears seemed to well up in his eyes again, and he gritted his teeth. "Yes, Kazuki-kun, I will definitely do what you said!"

Kazuki's order to Yashiro was very simple. When he returned to report to Uchiha Setsuna, he concealed Kazuki's strength and described it as a slightly difficult but stable situation.

In this way, Uchiha Setsuna's attention would be temporarily diverted from him. Although it was not difficult to deal with Uchiha Yashiro, if Setsuna, an extreme hawk, was aroused, there would be constant provocations from the clan members in the future, or even more extreme behavior.

Kazuki was not afraid of the so-called three tomoe, but this was a trouble without benefits, and it was more likely to cause him to expose his own strength and trump cards.

But in the eyes of Yashiro, Kazuki made a great sacrifice. Reputation in the Uchiha clan was almost like its lifeblood, but Kazuki had unhesitatingly given up the chance to gain fame and had trusted the one who had been provoking him just a moment before.

Enduring humiliation, abandoning personal honor for the sake of the clan, strong and gentle... This is the image of Kazuki in Yashiro's heart.

With his clothes clean, Yashiro silently looked at his wounds that Kazuki had carefully treated. Slowly and resolutely, he knelt on one knee, and said in a deep voice: “Kazuki-kun, if there is any order, I am willing to risk it all.”

"I know that although my talent and wisdom cannot compare to yours, please let me, a sinner, carry some of your burdens. Someone like you should not be alone on this path.”

"Kazuki-kun, you don't owe the clan, but those deceived clansmen owe you too much."

Kazuki slowly lifted Yashiro up with a satisfied smile. "It is because of clansmen like you that I am willing to bear the fate of Uchiha, Yashiro."

Yashiro's heart trembled, and he turned around abruptly. "Kazuki-kun, take care of your body, don't exhaust yourself!"

As he watched Yashiro walk away, Kazuki smiled slightly, thinking: 'That's how Uchiha is... as long as you're stronger and give him respect and a way out, his life is yours.'

'Although he is only a three-tomoe, he can become a piece within the radical members to spy on their movements. Yashiro seems to have some talent, perhaps in the future he can be a good force.'

Kazuki thought about the information Yashiro had just said and narrowed his eyes. 'Uchiha Setsuna, this old antique who was once played by Tobirama, why did he jump out again? What did Uchiha Fugaku think, that he actually let a waste like him take power.'

'I remember that Uchiha Fugaku at this time should still have hope for Konoha, and he shouldn't want me to get close to the Hokage...'

'But he didn't stop me. Is he hesitating about his attitude towards Konoha at this moment?'

After thinking for a while, Kazuki laughed dumbly and gave up trying to figure out the idea of Uchiha Fugaku, the clan leader.

Throughout the thousand-year history of the Uchiha Shinobi World, he is probably the only Uchiha who has opened the Mangekyo but never used Susanoo.

In terms of cowardice and hesitation, Kazuki is willing to call him the strongest!

Normal people cannot understand the operation of a mentally ill person. After all, this is an abstract character who can send his son to be brainwashed, make the clan a mess, and finally make up his mind to seize power by force and commit suicide.

To understand his thoughts, one would probably first need to lower one's own IQ.

Kazuki shook his head and then asked: "Tobirama, how did I perform? Give me an evaluation..."

“That’s all. The ability to win people’s favor reminds me of a bastard I killed…” Tobirama snorted coldly. "Kid, I don't mind you being determined to get close to Monkey. Everyone has their own demands. Kagami, Danzo, and Monkey were all the same as you. I'm surprised that you didn't block my perception."

Kazuki didn't pick up the conversation. "Putting aside other things, Tobirama, you are such a stingy person. I just imitated Uchiha Izuna's signature moves. Why did you reveal your murderous intent?"

"Alas, some people live in my body. They don't even teach me ninjutsu, and they don't let me learn other self-defense techniques... You are worthy of being the second generation Hokage of Konoha. You have the demeanor of a domineering president..."

Tobirama's face stagnated, and he felt guilty for some reason: Is he so obvious?

But his face was still as cold as an iceberg. "Who wants to live in your body? Boy, you kidnapped me to this place, you should seriously protect Konoha and inherit the Will of Fire as an apology to me!"

"Tobirama, I have to say a few words when you mention this. Even if I stand still, the woods a hundred meters away will burn because of my Will of Fire..." Kazuki looked at Tobirama's constipated expression and laughed. “Don’t bother, in the tests on the will of fire in the coming days, do you want to try it too?”

"You probably won't fail, but your score will definitely not be as high as mine."

“Kid, if it weren’t for me, there wouldn’t even be the will of fire.” Tobirama crossed his arms with an expression of complete confidence. "The one standing in front of you is the first principal of Konoha Ninja School!"

Kazuki shrugged. So what if Tobirama is the creator of the will of fire? Times have changed! Now, the power belongs to the new generations.

...

In the northernmost part of the Land of Frost.

In the huge valley known as the Mountains' Graveyard, Uchiha Madara closed his eyes and meditated.

With the ability of countless White Zetsu to transform and the ability to stalk the land at will, although Uchiha Madara never comes out of hiding, he has information about all parts of the Shinobi World.

Uchiha Obito is his prey that he has long been eyeing.

But the appearance of Kazuki, due to his bond with Obito and his origin in the Uchiha clan, caught his attention due to his outstanding performance, sparking intense interest in Madara.

As a lonely wandering soul of the previous era, Uchiha Madara's view of the Ninja World through the vision of White Zetsu is actually a bit like an old man at home watching TV programs, so bored that he always has to change channels to pass the time.

As the Shura of the Ninja World, he really had no interest in watching those Kage-level fights. In Uchiha Madara's eyes, these were all children's play, and it was a bit redundant to treat them as a hypnosis program. It would be better to watch the letters that Izuna and Hashirama had written to him in the past.

But recently, the Uchiha column of Konoha TV has been the focus of Uchiha Madara's attention and has successfully transformed him into a die-hard fan. In addition to eating, going to the toilet, and sleeping, he turns on the White Zetsu brand TV and watches it fiercely.

Among them, the program where Kazuki beat Yashiro and Obito made him find enthusiasm from his drowsy life, wake up from the state of eating and waiting to die, and his brain started to work at high speed again.

Originally, Uchiha Madara planned to stay like this, slowly inserting White Zetsu into the middle-level positions of the five major countries, setting up a plan in the Third Shinobi World War, blackening Obito, this little thing, and cultivating a spokesperson.

Uchiha Madara hated his current aging body. If he hadn't had to figure out a way to plan for the future and couldn't conquer the ninja world with his strength, he might have died long ago...

But after seeing Kazuki...

Uchiha Madara had to admit that his mind was a little confused.

In the eyes of the strongest clan leader of the Uchiha clan, Kazuki's talent was terrifying.

He was also extremely intelligent, able to trick Yashiro, who was almost twenty years his senior, and had easily agreed to become a death soldier for Kazuki.

Most importantly, in Uchiha Madara's eyes, Kazuki really looked like Uchiha Izuna.

Even the old Uchiha Madara had a double image in front of his eyes, and the younger brother who united the hearts of the Uchiha people for him, was extremely loyal to him, and finally offered his eyes...

The best younger brother in the world.

If he could recruit Kazuki, Madara even thought about the possibility of not treating him as a simple chess piece but giving him a good ending after the Eye of the Moon Plan.

Compared to Obito, Kazuki was much more attractive.

It's like a younger version of Izuna!
