Naruto: Dual-Pupil Uchiha

Uchiha Merchant Association

At this moment, the Uchiha Merchant Association was still thriving, even more prosperous than before.

In recent years, the Uchiha Merchant Association had almost spread throughout the entire ninja world.

The association's success also symbolized the growing strength of the Uchiha clan!

At this time, the members of the association included many familiar faces, most of whom were the new talents recently rising within the Uchiha.

After being trained at the Uchiha Ninja Academy, they had become the backbone that could support the Uchiha clan.

Of course, most of them had joined the Uchiha Merchant Association to help Uchiha Kinya manage the business.

As for missions from Konoha, since Uchiha Kinya took office, the association had not accepted any missions from Konoha.

Of course, in recent years, the ninja world seemed to have entered a period of peace with no major events.

However, this peace was only apparent on the surface. Behind the scenes, many things were still happening.

For example,

Orochimaru openly questioned Hiruzen Sarutobi's false kindness in Konoha.

There was a mysterious Akatsuki organization moving through the ninja world.

It seemed there were a few extremely violent new members of Akatsuki who had already made a name for themselves!

Also,

Jiraiya's new book release became a bestseller across the ninja world!

And many other things quietly unfolded during this time, but ordinary civilians didn't care much about these seemingly unimportant matters.

As for Orochimaru's complaints, they were easily brushed off with just a few casual words from the noble and righteous Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.

To the village, Hiruzen Sarutobi was still the kind-hearted and benevolent Third Hokage.

Amid the slightly noisy merchant association, there was a special room reserved exclusively for Genya!

A young figure sat cross-legged on a training bench, chakra swirling around him, blood energy radiating fiercely.

At this moment, the boy looked like a terrifying beast—far more frightening than a Tailed Beast!

However,

As time passed, the space around him trembled slightly.

The overflowing chakra began to flow back into the boy's body, finally being fully absorbed inside.

The aura faded.

Now the boy looked like an ordinary person. Aside from his handsome face, anyone seeing him would think he was just a normal kid.

Suddenly,

The boy who had been closing his eyes slowly opened them, revealing his unique Dual Pupils!

A gleam flashed,

Deep and mysterious, even more special than they had been years ago.

Buzz—

As his eyes opened, tomoe patterns started to spin and appear in his pupils.

One tomoe. Two tomoe. Three, four,

Five.

Even when the fifth tomoe appeared, they did not stop!

Faintly,

The sixth tomoe appeared quietly in Genya's eyes, then solidified.

"The sixth tomoe, it's finally formed!" Genya smiled as he felt the change in his pupils.

A few years ago, he had already awakened the five tomoe, but the sixth tomoe had yet to appear. Now, it had finally taken shape!

He could feel the terrifying pressure contained within this sixth tomoe.

"Next, Orochimaru's plan will begin!" Feeling the changes within his body, a smile spread across his lips.

He had waited a long time for this!

Now Genya knew that even if his plan failed, he alone could protect the entire Uchiha clan.

He had no more worries.

Knock, knock, knock.

At that moment, a soft knock came from outside, followed by a sweet and clear voice: "Genya-sama..."

The voice was sweet and carried a gentle charm.

"Come in." Genya chuckled softly at the voice. "How many times have I told you, Hikari? You don't need to ask before entering my room!"

As the door opened, a beautiful young girl stepped inside.

She was tall and curvy; her chest rose and fell with every breath. Though she was only twelve or thirteen, she carried an alluring charm.

Yet, on her delicate, pretty face were a pair of bright, watery eyes that shone with innocence and warmth.

When she heard Genya's teasing, a smile appeared on her refined features. "But you still have to knock!"

"You..." Genya shook his head with a bitter smile at Hikari's attitude.

Over the years, Genya had given this girl immense authority, making her the second-in-command of Atsukara.

Whenever he trained, Hikari was always there to handle any emergencies on his behalf.

She did everything very well and was very independent, but in her heart, she still thought of herself as his servant.

Genya had corrected this mindset many times, but Hikari just shook her head and said she would serve Genya for life.

"Speak… what brings you to me this time?" Genya looked at Hikari, his tone carrying some doubt.

"Genya-sama, this afternoon is the Ninja Academy's graduation exam. The clan leader said that although you don't have to attend school, you must go for the graduation exam, after all..." Hikari said to Genya.

"After all... if you want to run for village leader, you need a legitimate status, at least to be a graduate of the Ninja Academy!" Before Hikari could finish, Genya said the rest of the sentence himself.

"The clan leader wants you to leave a record at the Ninja Academy!" Hikari nodded, "I don't know what use this graduation record has now. The Konoha higher-ups have always been at odds with our Uchiha clan. Whether you have a forehead protector or not, what difference does it make?"

Actually, Hikari still didn't understand why the clan leader was so obsessed with the position of village leader.

The current prosperity of the Uchiha clan meant they could live very well even without a village!

Even more,

They could establish their own village!

Besides,

How strong Genya was—did he really need the identity of a Konoha Genin to prove himself?

"Hikari, you just don't understand. Our Uchiha clan demands legitimacy. Although we could establish an independent village, if we want to grow stronger, we can't close ourselves off. Creating a village only for the Uchiha is the worst option. We need to make the village truly belong to us.

No... what we want is to unite the ninja world, so the endless wars will finally stop!"

After saying this, Genya slowly stood up.

Crack, crack.

Maybe from sitting too long, his bones made soft cracking sounds as he stretched.

Hikari looked up at Genya, who was a little taller than her, and her face flushed slightly. "Genya-sama... you're getting more and more handsome!"

Genya glanced out the window.

Below, Konoha's streets were neat and orderly. He could see civilians walking outside, their faces bright with smiles.

After a long moment, Genya spoke with a hint of emotion, "Graduating from the ninja academy... the evaluation time really flies."
