Chapter 82 Might Guy
After the clan meeting, Uchiha启 was quiet for a while.
Without sufficient intelligence, Uchiha启 would not act rashly, otherwise, if he were exposed, he would be truly miserable.
Therefore, Uchiha启 continued his normal 'busy' life, either making various records, reading books, or sparring with Kakashi every day.
Kakashi's progress was so fast that Uchiha启 himself was astonished; it seemed that after finding the most suitable path, Kakashi's skill was truly advancing by leaps and bounds.
In Uchiha启's opinion, the current Kakashi could probably defeat the Kakashi from the battlefield in just a few breaths!
Is this what a true genius is like?
Uchiha启 scratched his head, suddenly wondering if the Hatake clan were also Ōtsutsuki descendants, would Kakashi be able to reach the level of Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, or even surpass them in the future?
Of course, this was just a thought. The world of Hokage still heavily relies on lineage; if you are fortunate enough to be born into a family of Ōtsutsuki descendants, then you are already at least several levels ahead of others in terms of foundation.
Just think about Ōtsutsuki Toneri; this kid had almost zero combat experience, but relying on the Ōtsutsuki bloodline and the Tenseigan, he almost fought Naruto to a draw.
In Uchiha启's words, even a pig with such strength could achieve this level, right?
Uchiha启 already had the foundation of a bloodline; although his talent was poor, he possessed intelligence that others did not, and this was the main reason Uchiha启 believed in his future!
"But those are things of the future; without present effort, how can there be a future? Besides, I have a lot of things to do."
Uchiha启 indeed had many things to do, and the most important one now was to figure out Uchiha Yu's direction of action and his specific strength information.
At this point, he somewhat missed Hyuga Aya, because with her around, many intelligence issues probably wouldn't require him to personally intervene.
However, Uchiha启 would absolutely not seek out that woman for cooperation; Uchiha启 could find her for such dangerous matters, but wouldn't that be handing her leverage?
Uchiha启 already had some ill thoughts about that woman and was just wondering when to resolve that trouble; how could he possibly hand over more leverage?
Presumably, if that woman knew about this, she would definitely expose Uchiha启 immediately, after all, she herself had offended Uchiha启 in many ways, and she was not at ease.
Walking slowly on Konoha's main street, Uchiha启 began to ponder what to do first: should he first figure out this guy's movements, or first ascertain his strength?
As he walked, a green figure suddenly rushed past Uchiha启, walking on his hands, at a speed far faster than an ordinary person.
Uchiha启 paused, then quickly smiled; if he wasn't mistaken, that guy should be Might Guy, right?
And just as Uchiha启 found it amusing, the inverted green figure suddenly retreated and stopped steadily beside Uchiha启.
"Ke?" Might Guy looked at Uchiha启 upside down, then called out with some surprise.
"Hmm, long time no see, Might Guy." Uchiha启's mouth twitched, but he still nodded: "You're still so energetic."
"Of course!"
Might Guy pushed himself up with both hands and stood steadily, giving Uchiha启 a thumbs-up with a vibrant expression, revealing a mouthful of pearly white teeth.
He said cheerfully, "Of course, this is my youth! By the way, Ke, it's really been a long time since I've seen you. Ever since you became a great hero, I've rarely seen you, and Kakashi too."
"A great hero? Let's not go there. I just did what I had to do." Uchiha启 unconsciously took a step back; Might Guy was very sweaty: "As for not being out for so long, it's because I was recovering from injuries, and Kakashi was pretty much the same."
As he made a thumbs-up gesture, visible beads of sweat were flying outwards, and Uchiha启 didn't want to get any of that on himself.
When Uchiha启 was not in mortal danger, he would not deliberately act cold towards these relatively 'simple-minded' individuals.
Moreover, Uchiha启's plan also required him to make more friends, rather than being cold and poker-faced with everyone.
"No, you are a hero!" Speaking of this, Might Guy became serious: "If it weren't for you, the war situation probably wouldn't have improved so much."
"Alright, let's not talk about this." Uchiha启 decisively shook his head: "Even if I'm a hero, I still kicked you in the school back then, what's the difference?"
"There's a big difference!" Might Guy seemed to recall kicking Obito and Uchiha启 back then, which made him involuntarily rub his head: "You really weren't that great back then. Alright, let's not talk about this, Ke, since you're out, how about we spar?"
"Next time." Uchiha启 immediately shook his head: "I need to go to the Mission Hall to check. Although I don't plan to take a mission, looking at the missions will let me know the current situation."
Uchiha启 hadn't made a decision earlier, but now he had thought it through: he would go to the Mission Hall to look at missions.
Although the Military Police Force's missions and the Mission Hall's missions were basically two different systems, the Mission Hall had many people, and Uchiha启 might even find some interesting things there.
Collecting intelligence was inherently about sifting through all sorts of details, and Konoha's Mission Hall could be considered a place where many people gathered and talked.
Foreign spies, in addition to long-term infiltration within Konoha, would also try similar channels to obtain the information they wanted.
Even if he didn't get the information he wanted in the Mission Hall, he wouldn't be disappointed, after all, not everyone was a protagonist who could get what they wanted just by showing up.
At worst, he could visit the Military Police Force and see if he could get anything there.
As a member of the Uchiha clan, he certainly had the right to visit the Military Police Force, especially since the head of the Military Police Force was Uchiha Fugaku.
There was nothing wrong with Uchiha启 visiting the clan head, even if the timing wasn't ideal.
Furthermore, due to identity restrictions, he couldn't access the Military Police Force's attendance records, but a simple visit was something he could do.
If he really obtained Uchiha Yu's patrol routes or similar information, then Uchiha启's next step would be to figure out some of his abilities, and then ambush him along the way.
"I see!" Might Guy once again gave Uchiha启 a thumbs-up: "Then keep up the good work, I need to work hard too!"
"Uh..." Uchiha启 once again took a step back, then nodded: "Hmm, let's work hard together."
