It was Uchiha Kagami who was trying to bring Sasuke and Karin together.
Gazing at the seemingly endless rift valley, Uchiha Kagami dispelled his Susanoo.
He flew towards Konoha, intending to gather everyone and announce his decision.
Chapter 120 Still Water, You Are My Target
Uchiha Clan Training Grounds.
During his afternoon break, Naruto, who was bursting with energy, would look for something interesting.
"Naruto-kun, what are you looking at?"
Hinata leaned closer to Naruto, who was looking up at the trees.
To be precise, Naruto was watching the cicadas chirping in the tree.
"Hey, Hinata."
Naruto looked up and spoke casually.
"The cicada is so pitiful."
"My mother said that cicadas stay in the soil for many years, and when they finally crawl out, they can only live for a very short time."
"He saw the outside world, and then he died very quickly."
Hinata didn't quite understand, but Naruto felt sorry for her, so she must really be pitiful.
Why do you think that a cicada's life begins only after it emerges from its shell?
A familiar voice came, and a warm hand pressed on Naruto and Hinata's heads.
Uchiha Kagami looked at the cicada and said calmly.
"Perhaps for them, life in the soil is their life, and they live very happily."
"During this final period of time, they were simply surviving for the sake of the continuation of their race."
"I think the cicada's life is quite perfect and happy, as it can complete its mission and then pass away."
Naruto turned his head, his azure eyes revealing a clear folly.
"really?"
Uchiha Kagami smiled and shook his head.
"I don't know either, I'm not a cicada."
"I just want to tell you not to judge other creatures by your own standards."
"Don't seek the approval of irrelevant people either."
Naruto's eyebrows furrowed.
"I don't understand, Master, what are you saying?"
Ruffled Naruto's hair and lightly patted the back of his head.
"You don't need to understand it, just remember it."
Sasuke leaned closer and made a sound to assert his presence.
Kagami Uchiha nodded at Sasuke.
This kid is willing to endure hardship; Uchiha Kagami is training him at the same intensity he used to be when he was a child.
It takes both internal and external pressure to sustain this kind of training.
What pleased Kagami Uchiha the most about Sasuke was his pride in his clan.
Moreover, he has excellent combat intelligence and has learned some of Uchiha Kagami's dirty tricks very well.
It's a real shame that Shisui wasn't as well-behaved as Sasuke.
Uchiha Kagami crouched down and pinched Sasuke's skeleton.
In the ninja world, children who train too early don't stunt their growth. Through training and medicinal baths, Sasuke's physical strength is only slightly less than Naruto and Karin's among his peers.
Genius plus hard work is truly an unsolvable problem.
"After some time, you can find Might Guy to train in the Eight Gates Technique."
"Huh? I don't want to! I want to cultivate with Master!"
Sasuke still recognized the green bodysuit that always ran around the village; it really didn't suit his aesthetic.
He wanted to become a powerful and beautiful Uchiha like his master!
Uchiha Kagami gently shook his head.
"You're too weak, Sasuke."
"I have already taught you the basics. You must reach the level of opening at least four doors before you are qualified to receive my next stage of instruction."
Sasuke pouted, a little annoyed.
A series of chain clanging sounds rang out.
"Curly-haired Demon King, taste my Adamantine Lockdown!"
Uchiha Kagami grabbed the chain and casually tossed it aside.
The little red-haired girl was thrown into a tree, causing leaves to fall everywhere.
"Karin, stop talking like Kushina. You don't have a husband who can use the Flying Thunder God Technique."
"Ouch..."
Karin pulled her head out of the big tree and shook it.
Hearing what Uchiha Kagami said, her face turned red.
She stared at Sasuke like a lovesick fool.
"Sasuke-kun, would you learn the Flying Thunder God Technique for me?"
Sasuke's face darkened: "I want to learn, but definitely not for you!"
"I want to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique too! That's clearly my dad's ninjutsu, I should learn it first!"
"I'm sorry, Naruto."
"Someone as thick-skinned as you could never learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, and even if you did, it wouldn't be of any use."
"Try making your family's traditional meatballs properly before you talk about it."
Uchiha Kagami looked around. At present, the training ground only had Naruto, his two little brothers, Hinata, and Neji. Everyone else was of age to carry out missions.
It was Zhishui who got them all to come today.
A few days ago, Shisui inexplicably received Sode no Shirayuki as a gift.
According to the original timeline, that day was his death date.
"Shisui, you explain."
At seventeen years old, Shisui was already a Jonin of Konoha. Not counting his Kotoamatsukami eye technique, he was far stronger than in the original timeline.
He can fly like Thor.
While Kakashi was still at the Flying Thunder God Slash stage, Shisui had already surpassed him and learned the second stage of the Flying Thunder God Slash.
It flashed repeatedly.
His reaction speed was only slightly inferior to Minato's; after all, he was someone who could have earned the title of "Shisui of the Instantaneous Movement."
Of course, his title has changed now.
His name is Uchiha Black Flash.
Along with the Yellow Flash of Konoha and the Orange Flash Revolver of Nekogawa, it is known as one of the three great Flashes of the Land of Fire.
Shisui was initially unwilling to accept this, but without using the Flying Thunder God Technique...
He couldn't even match the speed of a revolver over a straight distance!
This guy wasn't lying; the more he eats, the faster he runs.
Revolver, who now weighs half a ton, has hit a plateau and can no longer gain weight no matter how much he eats.
"My brother has decided to hold a grand martial arts competition that will be held throughout the ninja world."
"No age or skill limit, team formation is allowed, and everyone can participate."
"You all know about the ranking system of the Ninja Academy."
"The martial arts demonstration is divided into three stages."
"Any ninja who survives the first stage, even if they are from abroad, is eligible to become a registered ninja of Konoha in the Land of Fire."
Shisui spoke slowly, leaving pauses for the others to ask questions.
The pharmacist adjusted his glasses: "Is it a screening?"
"May I venture a guess that Lord Kagami intends to use this as a preliminary step in unifying the ninja world?"
Shisui looked at Uchiha Kagami; Kabuto Yakushi's question was too advanced for him to answer.
Uchiha Kagami shook his head.
"The obstacle to unifying the ninja world has never been the so-called Four Nations Alliance or the First Hokage and his ilk, oh, I should call them the Konoha."
"The naming is really unoriginal."
"You don't need to think too much about it, this is for me..."
"It's just because we're so bored that we organized a stage play to watch."
Sasuke's eyes sparkled.
This is the ultimate form he aspires to.
The ninja world is merely a stage for the Uchiha!
"We can participate too!!"
Naruto clenched his fists, extremely excited.
"I will prove to everyone that I am a ninja even better than my father!"
"Tch, we haven't even graduated yet, and you're not even a ninja." Sasuke poured cold water on the situation at the right moment.
"As I said, there are no restrictions."
"Naruto, of course you can participate."
Uchiha Kagami chuckled.
One reason why Hashirama Senju wasn't allowed to participate was his strength.
The most important thing is his personality. If he participates in this kind of competition, many people will not be able to fight each other.
Zhi Shui looked troubled.
"Brother... are you serious?"
Yamato and the others are one thing, but Naruto and the others are only six or seven years old!
The Uchiha mirror remained unmoved.
"When I was a little older than them, I was already on the battlefield."
That being said, Uchiha Kagami only wanted to give these kids a controlled trial of risk.
If a fatal crisis were to occur, even if he could remain calm, Minato would not be able to.
Zhishui, you are the one I've been plotting against, yet you're still foolishly concerned about others.
Chapter 121 The Grand Martial Arts Competition, Prelude.
In the snow-capped mountains bordering the Land of Fire.
A group of warriors fully armored stepped out.
