Naruto: The Beautiful Uchiha is Actually Me?

Chapter 33 Is that what you call care?

Tajima sat at a table in the corner of the hall, frowning as he tidied something. He only put down his work when he saw the two brothers arrive...

Ban waved to the two brothers, and then pulled his younger brother to their father's side.

"The Grand Elder passed away suddenly last night; the cause of death was that his time had come. Therefore..."

As Tajima spoke, he glanced at Yan Yi, who was secretly wiping away tears.

"So Yan Yi, you don't need to be sad. This is something to celebrate..."

After all, to die peacefully in such chaotic times is truly rare. The Grand Elder lived to seventy, which is exceptionally long in such turbulent times...

"Father, I understand... I'm sorry, I always cry..."

Yan Yi's mood has calmed down a lot now. His time has come, so there is really no need to be sad about it.

It's just a bit of a shame... that even if I become very capable in the future, my teacher won't be able to see it.

My first teacher... Although he was very strict with me, I can never forget his kindness in imparting knowledge and teaching me.

Tajima waved his hand dismissively and continued, "Everyone in the clan will be here this morning to see off the Grand Elder, so you'll have to wait until this afternoon to train."

After giving a few casual instructions, Tajima went on to arrange other tasks.

Ban and Yan stood in a corner of the lobby, neither of them saying a word.

Yan Yi has calmed down now. Being sad really isn't necessary; if the teacher finds out, she'll definitely get a beating...

Thinking about this, Yan Yi felt much better.

Looking at his younger brother's changes, Ban sighed inwardly... His brother had indeed grown a lot. If it were before, Yan Yi would have cried nonstop...

At nine o'clock in the morning, almost all the clansmen who were not on missions had gathered in the square in front of the main hall.

After Tajima briefly recounted the life of the First Elder and his contributions to the Uchiha clan, he began to preside over the farewell ceremony.

This process is also quite simple, since resources are limited, and those more formalistic things... those that can be omitted have basically been omitted.

Everything was kept simple, and the Grand Elder's funeral arrangements were all completed in just one morning.

Yan Yi listened attentively throughout, especially when her father recounted the life of the Grand Elder; her eyes widened considerably at that moment...

It turns out that the grumpy old man was actually quite powerful when he was young... The Uchiha clan's current territory, the place where they live now, was conquered by the Great Elder leading the clan back then.

In other words, the Great Elder deserves much credit for the clan's ability to settle in this resource-rich area.

Moreover, although he is old and his strength has declined a lot, he was an elite ninja who followed Tajima's father through thick and thin and made great contributions when he was young.

He was one of the few people in the clan to possess the Mangekyou Sharingan...

Unfortunately, no one in the tribe knows the power of his eyes. This secret was buried forever with the departure of the Great Elder.

By the time everything was almost finished, it was nearly noon.

Madara, along with Yan Yi and Izuna who had been specially called over early in the morning, prepared to go home together.

However, as they turned to leave, a voice came from behind them...

"Brother Yan Yi!"

"Well?"

Yan Yi turned around, and before she could react, a warm hug rushed towards her... The sheer size and softness left Yan Yi's head spinning...

"Ugh... Ah!"

As Yan struggled, he heard Brother Ban's furious shouts...

"Sanqi, you crazy woman, let go of my brother! Honestly, you always do this!"

Sanqi hugged Yan Yi's thin body tightly twice more before reluctantly letting go.

Yan Yi's face was now completely red, and she stood there stunned for a few seconds...

Seeing Yan Yi's adorable reaction, Sanqi wanted to pinch his cheeks even more. Just as she was about to reach out, another figure grabbed her wrist...

"Sis! Don't do that! You've scared her half to death..."

Yan Yi slowly came to her senses and looked around at the situation...

Ban glared at Sanqi with displeasure, while Sanqi looked at another boy with displeasure. The boy who had blocked Sanqi's path looked helpless, yet also revealed a hint of fear...

Izuna reacted quickly, immediately hiding behind Madara...

"Haha~ Sorry, sorry! After all, Yan Yi is really, really... super cute! I just couldn't help wanting to hug him..."

Sanqi smiled and apologized to Ban, but her gaze remained fixed on Yan Yi, making Yan Yi feel uneasy...

"Hello, Sister Sanqi..."

Yan Yi greeted him somewhat awkwardly; this was the second time he'd been suddenly given a face wash...

"Hello, little brother Yan Yi! I'm so sorry about earlier, but you were just too cute~ Let me introduce you, this guy is my little brother, his name is... never mind! Let me treat you to lunch!"

Sanqi pointed to the boy beside her, introducing him with a look of disdain...

The boy looked a little angry, but didn't dare to talk back to his sister, so he could only introduce himself to Yan Yi with a wronged expression...

"Hello, Yan Yi, my name is Sanjiu... I apologize on behalf of my sister for her rudeness..."

"Uh... Hello, big brother..."

Yan Yi's expression was a little strange. So this guy was the unlucky child who was always being chased and beaten by San Qi...

The other person wasn't bad-looking; he was quite a handsome young man. How come he's ended up in such a miserable state?

Ban, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up: "No! We need to go home, and who knows if Sanqi will suddenly attack my brother again..."

Sanqi immediately retorted, "Huh? What do you mean by attack? It's clearly care!"

"My dear sister...you call that care? It's clearly an attack...Hey, I'm sorry, sister, please! Don't pull my ear!"

Before Miku could finish speaking, Miki grabbed her ear and forced her to squat on the ground, begging for mercy.

Ban looked speechless; every time he encountered these siblings, they were always causing such a ruckus...

Seeing that the siblings were about to start another chase, Ban didn't want to stay any longer. He couldn't bear to hug his precious little brother so tightly. How could he be so wicked!

"Bandit, let's run now!" Izuna tugged at Bandit's sleeve, looking terrified.

Spot nodded, he had the same idea, so he immediately grabbed his two younger brothers and left the scene at lightning speed.

On the training field, the screams of a boy and the shouts of a girl could be heard from time to time...

The sound even reached Yan Yi's ears while he was eating... It was a bit scary.

But this brother and sister are really interesting, and their dumplings are really delicious!

Having put aside her longing for Yui, Yan began to consider her afternoon training... According to Madara, it should be time to start training in ninjutsu.

This is exactly what Yan Yi is most interested in, because it's really cool!
