Grind is My Ninja Way

Time flies

In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.

Time came to the beginning of July.

This afternoon.

Somewhere in the forest.

A sound of fighting came.

Looking for the sound, I saw two figures intertwined, one of them was Seimei, and the other was Uchiha Tetsuka.

Seimei held a long knife, his body like a ghost, appearing from time to time in front, behind, left and right of Uchiha Tetsuka.

Uchiha Tetsuka pushed his three-tomoe Sharingan to the limit, trying his best to follow Seimei's every move, constantly swinging the kunai in his hand to block.

Clang clang clang~

The long knife and kunai collided, making a series of crisp metal clashing sounds.

However, a long defense must have a gap, and Uchiha Tetsuka's passive defense did not last long.

When the battle reached about five minutes, Seimei seized the opportunity, using 'Instant Sword Technique' to adjust his direction and 'Illusion Sword Technique' to affect his senses.

Then, he stabbed out with his sword, stopping at his throat.

Feeling the sharp aura from the tip of the sword, Uchiha Tetsuka quickly stopped his body, frozen in place and not daring to move.

Seeing this, Seimei turned his wrist and retracted the long knife.

In front, Uchiha Tetsuka finally moved, he put down the kunai in his hand, sighed lightly, and said: "Hey! Seimei, how did you practice? I haven't slacked off during this time, why do I feel that the gap between us is getting bigger and bigger?"

Hearing this, Seimei smiled without saying a word. What could he say? Could he say: Brother, don't make things difficult for yourself, I'm cheating!

Although this is the truth, he can't say it.

What's more, he didn't get something for nothing. Every bit of proficiency increase on the panel contains his sweat.

In this way, how can it be called cheating?

The panel at most played a tiny role in it.

Of course, he didn't need to explain anything. After dealing with the other party for so long, Seimei knew that he was just complaining, not really prying into his secrets.

Otherwise, he would have sent the other party to the Pure Land long ago.

The panel, for him, is the second biggest secret after transmigration. He will not let go of anyone who dares to pry.

Just as he was thinking about this, Uchiha Tetsuka seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly leaned closer, mysteriously saying: "Seimei, have you heard about one thing?"

"What's the matter?"

Seimei replied lightly.

"It's about the fact that some time ago, Kakashi, the disciple of Minato-sama, transplanted the Sharingan of our clan." Uchiha Tetsuka said.

That's right, the development of things is just as he expected, or the same as in his previous life.

Iwagakure really bypassed Konoha's base camp in the Land of Rain and sent an elite force to raid the border of the Land of Fire.

The Konoha defense forces stationed there were almost wiped out. In the end, it was Namikaze Minato who arrived in time to solve the invading Iwa ninja.

But this only delayed Iwagakure's offensive pace and could not prevent them from continuing to break through along this gap.

In order to buy time to mobilize troops, Konoha formulated a plan to destroy Iwagakure's important material transportation channel - the Kannabi Bridge.

A week ago, under the cover of several teams, Team Minato successfully infiltrated the rear of the Iwa-occupied area and arrived near the Kannabi Bridge.

Seimei didn't know the details of the battle in the middle, but only knew that the result was the same as in his previous life. Uchiha Obito 'sacrificed', and Nohara Rin followed his will and transplanted one of his eyes to Kakashi, giving Kakashi a Sharingan.

It seems to be to boost morale, and also to build momentum for Namikaze Minato.

In short, the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, where two Sharingan heroes were born at once, quickly spread. Even he, who was far away here, had heard a little about it.

'But, is there any problem with this matter?'

Seimei was puzzled, so he looked at Uchiha Tetsuka and said, "I've heard about this, what's wrong?"

Hearing this, Uchiha Tetsuka looked around, confirmed that there was no one, and then said: "I heard that some people in the clan have opinions about Kakashi transplanting the Sharingan, and they seem to be seeking to get that eye back."

Hearing his words, Seimei suddenly realized.

That's right, think about it, what the Hyuga clan did to ensure that the Byakugan doesn't leak out. As the Sharingan, which is as famous as it, how could the Uchiha clan be willing to let it be obtained by outsiders?

Even if Kakashi said that this was Uchiha Obito's initiative to give it to him, it's still not okay.

Therefore, it's normal for such voices to arise within the clan.

However, Seimei knew that this matter could not succeed.

Let's not even mention the memories of his past life, where more than ten years later, Kakashi was still using this eye. The existence of Namikaze Minato alone was enough to protect Kakashi.

As long as he grasped the fact that this eye was given by Uchiha Obito on his own initiative, it was his last wish, and coupled with the general trend of the village needing heroes, then the Uchiha clan could not take back this Sharingan unless they were willing to bear the infamy of oppressing war heroes.

Obviously, the Uchiha clan would never want such a reputation.

What's more, although Hatake Sakumo is dead, as the famous Konoha's White Fang, his connections still exist.

These people, due to various reasons, may not say anything openly, but they will definitely help Kakashi in secret.

In this way, it's even more impossible for the Uchiha clan to get this eye back.

Uchiha Tetsuka didn't know what Seimei was thinking, and he was still saying: "I think those people in the clan are really something. It's just one eye. Since Obito has already given it to him, what else do they want?"

"What's more, without the bloodline of the Uchiha clan, that Kakashi can't fully utilize the power of that eye. There's really no need to offend others because of this..."

Hearing Uchiha Tetsuka's words, Seimei looked at him in surprise.

He thought that when encountering such a thing, the other party would side with the radicals. Unexpectedly, he could see it so clearly.

Indeed, a mere Sharingan, in the hands of someone without the Uchiha bloodline, can't exert its full power at all.

In this way, insisting on taking it back is really unwise.

Doing so can indeed maintain the Uchiha clan's face as a prominent Konoha clan, and at the same time warn other people with ulterior motives against coveting the Uchiha clan's Sharingan.

But similarly, this move will also cause a large number of people's disgust.

After all, the person who got this Sharingan is not from another village, but a war hero of this village. The Uchiha clan's actions simply cannot make them unite against a common enemy.

On the contrary, giving up on retrieving this eye may even earn the Uchiha clan a good reputation.

In this way, comparing the two, the choice is clear.

Presumably in the previous life, Uchiha Fugaku considered these factors, so he suppressed other voices within the clan and gave up on retrieving this eye.

'This life, I'm afraid it's about the same.'

Seimei thought to himself.

In front, Uchiha Tetsuka was a little creeped out by his stare, and hurriedly said: "What's wrong, Seimei, do you have a different opinion?"

"No."

Seimei shook his head and said: "You're right."

"Then do you think the clan leader will agree to those people's proposal and take back that Sharingan?" Uchiha Tetsuka asked again.

"No!"

Seimei said categorically.

"Why?"

Uchiha Tetsuka asked.

"Because if you can figure it out, the clan leader can definitely figure it out too."

Seimei replied.

After saying that, he ignored the other party, raised his hands, formed the 'Ram' seal, and cast the ninjutsu - Shadow Clone Technique!
