Naruto: Starting With Three Tomoe Sharingan, Girlfriend Kushina

Chapter 7: Chapter 7: The Three-Tomoe Sharingan Under the Setting Sun, A Child With a Mother Is Like a Treasure



"Sorry, sorry! My fault, my fault!" Kushina kept apologizing, grabbing Ryun's arm to pull him up.

"Wait… let me recover a bit, please…"

Ryun clutched his lower back, begging for mercy.

"Uh… okay, okay!" Kushina awkwardly laughed and let go.

"Can't you be gentler? You just accused me of being handsy, but what about you?" Ryun rubbed his waist while complaining.

"I was wrong…" Kushina hung her head in apology.

"Want me to rub it for you?"

"Please don't, I still need this back…" Ryun rolled his eyes.

Once he had mostly recovered, Ryun slowly stood up and brushed the dust off his pants.

"Cleaning's pretty much done. Time to go home!"

It was nearly sunset, and if they didn't leave soon, the Ninja Academy would close.

"Oh, okay…"

Kushina nodded obediently.

Ryun walked ahead, and Kushina quietly followed behind.

Just as Ryun was about to step out of the classroom, Kushina finally couldn't hold back and called out to him.

"Ryun, didn't you say you'd show me your eyes after school? There's no one around now!"

Kushina looked at him eagerly—more specifically, at his eyes.

"…"

Ryun had forgotten about this himself.

He glanced outside the classroom to confirm most of the students had already left.

"Fine…"

Ryun gathered chakra in his eyes, and a pair of blood-red pupils instantly appeared.

With his back to the setting sun, he stared directly at Kushina. The bright light spilled over him, making him appear holy yet dazzling.

The sunlight briefly blinded Kushina, making it hard for her to see Ryun's face clearly.

When she rubbed her eyes and looked again, she saw a pair of mesmerizing three-tomoe Sharingan, radiant and brilliant under the glow of the sunset!

These eyes were bewitching yet not overly seductive, breathtakingly beautiful—so stunning they could steal one's soul. They were like the most perfect work of art in the world.

Once, a certain man who believed "explosions were art" had nearly fallen under their spell upon seeing the three-tomoe Sharingan under the setting sun. For a moment, he even questioned his own beliefs, thinking these eyes were the true art, more beautiful than blooming fireworks.

Kushina was similarly entranced now. Her mind seemed completely captivated, her vision filled with nothing but those eyes.

Once these three-tomoe Sharingan appeared, even the brightest sunlight paled in comparison, unable to compete with their brilliance!

Ryun hadn't used any genjutsu on her, yet Kushina seemed to be under the influence of the "strongest genjutsu"…

Her mind was filled with those bewitching eyes, that enchanting face.

Unconsciously, she reached out her hand, touching the pale, delicate face before her.

Ryun allowed the warm palm to brush against his cheek and eyelids.

But seeing Kushina's dazed expression, he actually blushed for once and instinctively averted his gaze.

As those ruby-like eyes looked away, Kushina suddenly snapped out of it. Her hand jerked back like she'd been shocked, and she immediately bolted out of the classroom.

Ryun watched her retreating figure and deactivated his Sharingan.

He didn't chase after her, sighing softly before locking the classroom door.

On the way home, Ryun felt unusually happy, as if even the wind around him was sweet. His steps unconsciously quickened.

It was the joyful feeling of returning home.

As he turned a corner, he suddenly saw a figure that was both familiar and slightly unfamiliar.

It was a strikingly beautiful purple-haired woman standing at the entrance of his house, quietly waiting for his return.

Ryun lowered his head, inexplicably nervous, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

"You finally remember to come home? Where have you been playing until now?"

The woman scolded lightly, but there was no anger in her tone—just a faint smile.

"Mom…"

The word "Mom" slipped out naturally, as if she had always been his mother—Uchiha Asuka.

"Where's your headband?" Asuka looked at him curiously.

"It was too hot, so I took it off…" Ryun stood stiffly, not daring to raise his head.

"Aren't you afraid people will call you 'wide forehead'?" Asuka couldn't help but laugh as she said this.

Hearing her laughter, Ryun glanced up, and his tension inexplicably eased.

"I'm not. I won't wear it anymore from now on…"

"Oh? Since when did our Ryun become so bold?" Asuka chuckled, ruffling his hair.

"A girl today said my forehead looks nice…" Ryun blurted out, then froze.

In front of his mother, he had regressed into childishness!

It was his original self's instincts taking over—even if he wanted to control it, he couldn't…

"Hahaha… So that's why you stopped wearing the headband! A girl complimented your forehead… hahaha!"

Asuka laughed so hard tears nearly spilled from her eyes.

After her laughter subsided, she gently patted his head and spoke seriously:

"Our Ryun was always good-looking. It was only a matter of time before girls started noticing you."

She never believed her child was inferior to anyone, especially in looks—she had absolute confidence in that.

She had noticed Ryun's slight insecurity about his forehead but didn't think it was a big deal.

As he grew older, he'd naturally understand beauty standards without needing to be taught.

Besides, Ryun already had great luck with girls. If he stopped wearing the headband, he might attract even more attention, which could lead to problems like fear of women (like Sasuke), dislike of women, or even early romance.

"Go wash your hands and face, then eat."

"Okay…"

Ryun nodded and hurried off.

After a quick cold shower, he returned to find Asuka already kneeling at the dining table, with rice served for him.

The house only had the two of them—mother and son. His father, Uchiha Sei, a Chunin with a two-tomoe Sharingan, had died in the war two years ago.

"Let's eat. The food's getting cold…" Asuka said between bites.

"Mm."

In his past life, Ryun had been an orphan. Now, having a mother felt… nice.

"Where were you playing this afternoon? Coming home so late had me worried sick…"

"I was on cleaning duty at the classroom, so I got delayed." Ryun swallowed a bite before explaining.

"Didn't you just have duty recently? Why again?" Asuka looked skeptical.

"…"

This mother wasn't easy to fool—she paid attention to details.

"I messed up… The teacher punished me with cleaning duty." Ryun decided honesty was best since it wasn't a big deal.

"Messed up? How?"

"I hit someone."

"Huh???"

Asuka wondered if she'd misheard.

"You hit someone? Not got hit?"

"I hit someone…" Ryun's lips twitched as he repeated.

"You actually hit someone?" Asuka raised an eyebrow, looking genuinely surprised.

"…"

"How did you do it? Tell me…"

At this, Ryun froze.

Logically, shouldn't she first ask why he hit someone? Instead, she was curious about how he did it???
