Chapter 72 Uchiha's Fighting Style
After the Uchiha Clan meeting ended, Uchiha启 resumed his normal life.
However, his life still underwent some changes. Under Uchiha Ryoko's 'promotion'—which was essentially just her chatting with other Uchiha housewives—the news of Uchiha启 participating in the Clan meeting spread throughout almost the entire Uchiha Clan.
This caused Uchiha启 to be watched sometimes when he went out to train with Kakashi. Although those onlookers were very friendly towards Uchiha启, he felt a bit overwhelmed by being treated like a monkey.
What made Uchiha启 even more speechless was that countless young children were 'poisoned' by their parents.
They probably heard things like, 'Look at Ke-gege from Aunt Ryoko's house. He's so young, yet he's already an excellent Ninja and can participate in Clan meetings. You should learn from him.'
Uchiha启 had inexplicably become 'someone else's child,' but Uchiha启 did not want these little ones to see him as a role model.
"If they really learn from me, won't I have to constantly guard against these guys stabbing me in the back later?"
Uchiha启 knew exactly what kind of person he was. If these 'virtues' of his were learned by these kids, then Uchiha启 could assert that Konoha would absolutely be finished.
However, if this could bring down Konoha and its four big leaders, then it seemed like a good method, didn't it?
Of course, this was just wishful thinking. So far, Uchiha启 had only seen Imai Kenta and Hyuga Aya as the two most similar to himself.
Besides these children, Uchiha启 also noticed that another group of Uchiha Ninja had begun to try to contact him.
These guys were originally prominent figures in the Clan. Their frequent visits to Uchiha启's home actually startled Uchiha Keisuke and Uchiha Ryoko.
However, this made them even prouder, as it showed that their child had now reached a height they could hardly imagine.
Uchiha启, on the other hand, frowned. Uchiha启 wasn't very keen on interacting with these guys, and they clearly misunderstood something.
Uchiha启's opposition to Uchiha Shu and the Hardliners was merely part of his own plan; it did not mean Uchiha启 agreed with these 'Dove Faction' guys.
The poor impression these so-called Uchiha 'Dove Faction' members left on Uchiha启 was no less terrible than that left by the 'Hawk Faction,' perhaps even worse!
That idiot Uchiha Shisui was one of them; there was absolutely no doubt about that!
And Uchiha Itachi, who was led astray by Uchiha Shisui, was their paragon. This guy was even more ruthless, personally killing his entire family, who gave birth to and raised him, making him even more ruthless than Uchiha启, this 'outsider'!
If the 'Hawk Faction' were a bunch of crazy, arrogant idiots, then the so-called 'Dove Faction' was a breeding ground for deeply disturbed individuals and traitors.
They produced two Mangekyo users, one of whom was brainwashed by the Third Hokage, then overly trusted the people of Konoha and was ambushed.
He ultimately chose suicide rather than finding a solution, because he didn't want to witness the tragic future of his Clan. This was an incredibly cowardly act.
The other one killed his entire family, including his own parents, leaving only the younger brother he deeply loved, completely disregarding the lives of others.
If it weren't for Uchiha启's inner plan that made him act this way, Uchiha启 would probably count them among the people he most wanted to kill.
Facing the visits of these guys, although Uchiha启 absolutely did not want to deal with them, he had no choice but to feign politeness and engage in superficial interactions with them.
In fact, even if Uchiha Shu visited, Uchiha启 would act this way. He could maintain excellent Control when facing the Third Hokage, who was almost the 'mastermind,' let alone these guys.
It's just that dealing with these guys really annoyed Uchiha启, so he simply spent more time training with Kakashi.
"Clang!"
In the forest where Uchiha启 had been training for a long time, the metallic sound of blades clashing with Kunai echoed, and two figures constantly moved back and forth through the forest.
However, this battle did not last too long. A silver-haired, masked man was knocked to the ground. This man was clearly Kakashi, while Uchiha启 examined the ninja blade in his hand.
Kakashi had given him this blade today, which Uchiha启 had not expected at all.
"You hit too hard." Kakashi rubbed his stomach. He had just been kicked hard by Uchiha启: "Is something bothering you lately? You're so ruthless with your attacks."
"I have a lot on my mind, but it's nothing major. Also, that was already considered light. On the battlefield, no one is as gentle as I am."
Uchiha启 smiled, then curiously asked, "What's with this blade? Last time I thought you were joking."
"Do I look like I'm joking?" Kakashi shook his head: "My father once used a blade made of this material. And I don't plan to use a blade anymore, so..."
"Your father was a hero." Before Kakashi could finish speaking, Uchiha启 suddenly said, "Although his blade broke, why didn't you try to fix it? Standing on the shoulders of giants, you should forge a new path, and Obito wouldn't want you to live like this, would he?"
Uchiha启 sometimes wondered why Kakashi, despite his strong blade skills, later stopped using a blade and instead became more and more like an Uchiha Ninja.
At first, Uchiha启 thought that Kakashi's blade couldn't be repaired because metals compatible with Chakra were quite rare, but now Kakashi could get him a short blade, which meant he still had this metal.
After much thought, Uchiha启 felt he had arrived at a somewhat speechless answer: Obito.
In Kakashi's mind, Obito died because of him, and he carried Obito's Sharingan. Naturally, he hoped to maximize the value of these eyes to honor Obito.
However, in reality, Obito did not die at all. In the future, he witnessed Kakashi personally kill Rin Nohara and completely fell into darkness, and Kakashi could also be said to have completely taken the wrong path.
Kakashi's future fighting style was very much like Uchiha—using Ninjutsu to probe the enemy, then using the insight of the Sharingan combined with Chidori to eliminate the enemy.
But the Uchiha Clan's Sharingan does not place a heavy burden on themselves, and the consumption of Chakra is not very severe.
But Kakashi was different; the Sharingan was a Chakra bottomless pit for him. He still forcibly used the 'Uchiha fighting style' to fight. Wasn't this a problem with his own thinking, or what else could it be?
"Obito wouldn't want me to live like this. Standing on the shoulders of giants, huh?" Kakashi muttered a few words, then fell silent.
Seeing this, Uchiha启 shook his head. He had said what he could say; the rest was up to Kakashi.
