'My great grandfather is Madara. I am related to Madara.' Seeing the old man Tsukiho want to cry but no tears. It's more like she didn't dare to cry in front of this big villain. 'Seriously what type of shit luck do I have? First I was born in Country of Whirlpools and then I am the great granddaughter of this one. Now I had already stepped on to this shit. So let's go with the flow'
At this time the old man's eyes were on the person who came in. No strictly speaking he was looking at the little red haired baby who was in the arms of his daughter. Tsukiho also looked at him with curious eyes. Then she slowly pulled her corners of lips upwards for a smile. "Great great grandfather?!" She said curiously.
Hearing the words a big question mark appeared on the old person. For an answer he looked at the person who was holding the baby. "Haha I guess she heard my conversation with Tsumiki before coming here" the old lady laughed.
"Naori" the old man looked at her with blood red pupils.
"father" she looked at Madara with a calm gaze.
"Seems like Uzumaki genes became dominating. Maybe we could see another interesting Sharingan" The old man looked at the girl's eyes. "I want a sample of blood from her. Combination of Uzumaki and Uchiha might bring something special."
"father, she is your descendant. Not a specimen. Is that the reason why you wanted to see her?" The old woman get little angry.
"I had no intention for her eyes or anything. But she should have potential to be my successor. Why not you let me to train her?" The old man slightly touched the baby's head.
Tsukiho looked at the old man very curiously before showing a bright smile.
Even though she knew Madara's intentions, she didn't took those words in to her heart as she recalled the pitiful fate of this proud warrior. To be honest it would be a lie to say that she didn't feel any pressure when facing a someone like Madara Uchiha. But as a well trained military agent she had a clear head and saw the big picture. And she didn't hate the villains like Madara.
In her previous life she admired his physical and mental strength to endure something like this.
Put in bluntly Madara was a late stage chuunibyou who was fooled by Black Zetsu. In the end he got in to a path of no return which is why he ended up like the way in the anime.
When her grandmother and her great grandfather having an eye confrontation, she looked around to find a clue about certain mama-con, the Oscar winning actor Black Zetsu. Seeing there wasn't any trace of that shit stick she sighed in relief.
"Sorry father, Her parents and I want Tsukiho to leave a life her want freely. And also I don't want her to bear the burden of your that plan." Naori showed her line. "And I believe she will connect the Konoha and Uchiha clan together once again. After all she is a Uzumaki clan princess and also consider as a noble from Uchiha clan. After all she came from main family." Because Naori was considered as a princess in Uchiha clan before disappearing, she assured about the baby's identity.
"She is an Uchiha clan princess. After all I am the only remaining real main family member. If without you and Tsumiki isn't there. There are just a bunch of traitors." Madara snorted and looked at Tsukiho with a bit softened gaze. "She might be the last main family member in the Uchiha clan." Madara murmured as he took the baby into his hand. "Seems like you still the stubborn fool who believed in naive ideals. It doesn't matter anyway, just an heir. I could find another one."
Hearing the conversation between her grandmother and great grandfather. Her anxiety leaves almost raised to the point she want to run away. But seeing her grandmother helping and speaking for her, she sighed in relief as she felt her own heart moved. Then she looked at the old man who is holding her with a bright smile. "Great great grandfather"
Hearing the little lass voice. The old man's face darkened. "Call me great grandfather" he rose her up as he want to take a good look at her. The baby didn't scared by his intimidation. Seeing that her face resembling his deceased brother Izuna, he raised an eyebrow with interest as his red pupil turned in to black pupils. A trace of nostalgia appeared in his face.
Her father's actions made the old lady stunned as she showed a hint of smile. 'Seems like father still has a soft spot for his descendant.May be it because Tsukiho didn't afraid of him I guess. It doesn't matter, we had to prepare for every possibilities. I guess it is time to start Tsukiho's training.' Naori thought as she saw the gaze of her father.
On the other side Tsukiho smiled at Madara but inside she was rolling her eyes at Madara's irritation towards his age as it showed how old he is. In the mighty ninja world, the mastermind behind the scenes has a weakness towards his age. Then she saw the plant like gedo mazo statue behind them covered in darkness. But she acted as she only looking at the old man's face.
"Great grandfather why are you stay in here?" Her childish voice rang through Madara and Naori's ears.
"Why is it scary?" The girl shook her head as a no.
"Then?"
"It is stuffy. Great grandfather is stuck in here" seeing her adorable face he seemed to be in a good mood as the corners of his mouth were unconsciously curved up.
"Hahaha great grandfather laughed" the little one clap her hands with a silly grin.
Seeing the little girl noticed his change of expression Madara sighed as he annoyed. Naori stunned again after seeing her granddaughter's antics then a gentle smile appeared on her face.
Both great grandfather and great granddaughter played with each other until a white figure appeared from the floor.
Tsukiho looked at the white Zetsu imerged from the ground with interest. She slapped the stone seat. "Whitie" she tried to grabbed Zetsu as she called him like that.
Sensing white Zetsu's grinning at Tsukiho, Madara glared at white Zetsu with his Sharingan. It laughed dryly and stepped away from Tsukiho.
Seeing the scene in front of her ,Tsukiho almost moved until Madara hold her little hand and took a blade. "Sorry little one this will be little painful." A small wound appeared as he said and blood started to flow from the wound. Then white Zetsu took a scroll and collected the blood from the wound.
Naori Uchiha glared Madara and snatched Tsukiho and quickly bandaged her hand.
Meanwhile Tsukiho looked at Madara without crying even though she became little speechless but she understood that Madara never intended to harm her. 'I thought Madara would be ruthless to even his descendants too. Seems like I underestimate his character. He might be unscrupulous, ruthless and cold-blooded but he still has a certain tolerance towards his descendants. At least for me. Otherwise he don't need to say anything and could make a huge slice. I guess his character eventually changed because of that Oscar winning actor Black Zetsu. Sure enough how many people that wretched thing harmed.' Then she smiled at her grandmother and Madara innocently. "Grandmother it won't hurt. Great grandfather never thought of harm me"
Naori stunned at her words. Even Madara was taken aback. Seeing Tsukiho's clear gaze. She understood that she still underestimating Tsukiho's intelligence.
"What an interesting child" Madara showed a light smile. Then he turned his head towards the old woman. "I don't have much time left. You should bring her often."
"I will" Naori sighed.
