Chereads / The Senju Remnants Of The Uchiha Clan / Chapter 31 - The Storm Is Coming

Chapter 31 - The Storm Is Coming

Walking out of the big tent, the Uchiha Clan ninjas felt refreshed.

"I can't tell, I can't tell…"

Shiratori was amazed, and the strange look he gave them made Yashiro feel uncomfortable. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I just didn't expect that Uncle Yashiro also has such a domineering side."

Yashiro Uchiha often interacts with Shiratori's family. He and Toyotaka have known each other since childhood, and they have the same weird personality and even similar tastes; he may be the only one who thinks the ramen from Toyotaka's shop tastes okay.

However, this kind of person actually has a strong Uchiha style when facing outsiders.

"What are you talking about? What kind of words are you talking about? I am the elite Jonin, Yashiro Uchiha!"

"Elite? Are there elites who awaken the three tomoe at the age of 25?" An Uchiha Jonin said dimly behind him.

Yashiro: "…"

He stopped talking.

"By the way, Uncle Yashiro, why are you here?"

"Ah, this… It's related to Toyotaka." Yashiro scratched his head.

"My Dad?" Shiratori was stunned.

"Yeah, your dad… Did something big!"

Yashiro talked about something that happened a few days ago…

In Shiratori's mind, Toyotaka's image has always been unreliable.

However, when he learned that Shiratori was trapped in the most dangerous southeast front because of Setsuna's arrangement, he did something earth-shaking.

He went to block Setsuna Uchiha's door with a kitchen knife in his hand.

The person Toyotaka fears the most is Setsuna, whether in his childhood or after being expelled from the clan. This time, he is really going out.

That day, everyone in the clan gathered at the door of Setsuna's house. They watched Toyotaka holding a kitchen knife with red eyes while using a lot of foul language as he cursed outside of Setsuna's house. 

The last person who dared to insult the first elder of the Uchiha Clan so unscrupulously was Tobirama Senju.

Setsuna stood quietly inside the door, looking at the mad Toyotaka without saying a word, until the clan head, Fugaku Uchiha, arrived and forcibly dragged away his brother, who was not even a ninja.

"The third Hokage's two children are in the southeast." 

After saying this to the crowd, Setsuna closed the door.

There was no long story; that was how he explained it to the average Uchiha.

However, within the Uchiha ninja circle, and even within the Hawk faction, there were complaints about his decision to put the family's future hopes at risk, and he still needed to give another explanation to these people.

"Grandfather, Uncle Toyotaka was just impulsive at the moment; it's not…" Setsuna's grandson, Teimu, carefully persuaded him.

"I know, so I didn't punish him according to the clan rules. Besides, this bastard was expelled from the family a long time ago and is not eligible to be punished by the clan rules… Teimu."

"Grandfather?"

"Go pack your things now."

"W-what happened?"

"You will set off tomorrow to report to the front-line battlefield of the Village Hidden in the Rain."

"Ah?!"

Simple and crude, sending his own grandson to the even more chaotic battlefield of the Village Hidden in the Rain was Setsuna's explanation.

It's just a pity for Teimu. Whenever something involves Shiratori, he is always the one who suffers in the end…

Moreover, on the next day, due to the pressure from Toyotaka and the clan, Setsuna ordered four Jonins, including Yashiro Uchiha, to give up their mission of going to the battlefield with Hidden Cloud Village and go to the southeast camp instead, ostensibly to provide reinforcements but in fact to protect Shiratori's safety.

As for the third Hokage, he will talk to him in person.

In fact, Yashiro and the others clearly knew that this decision had nothing to do with Toyotaka and the discussions within the clan. The old man was not as calm and indifferent as he looked because two days before Toyotaka made a scene in the clan, Setsuna had asked them to pack up and prepare to go to the southeast…

After hearing the whole story, Shiratori felt a warm current in his heart.

That unreliable father who always had a flattering smile on his face and humbly solicited customers at the door of the ramen shop…

That stern and cold but arrogant old man with a cold face and a warm heart…

There was also Yashiro Uchiha and the other three Jonin uncles who came all the way to protect him…

He made a secret decision in his heart.

The third Hokage? Danzo?? Or… Itachi?

No matter who you are, you cannot harm my relatives and friends!

Whoever touches it will die.

...…

A flash of lightning whizzed past everyone and then broke a big tree.

"Boom…!"

At the location of the tree's wreckage, Shiratori was emitting strange arcs of electricity all over his body and lay on the ground twitching…

"Boss Shiratori, are you okay, ahhh…"

Might Duy went forward to help, and as soon as he grabbed Shiratori's arm with one hand, he and Shiratori started to twitch together.

Might guy was horrified.

Might guy arrived quickly!

Might guy happily joined the group and started twitching together…

"Ibiki! Is this really okay?"

Asuma sat next to Kurenai Yuhi and watched this scene, which was an eye-opener.

No wonder Shiratori is so much stronger than him; it seems that there is a difference in their training methods…

Who in their right mind would dare to do this?

"Don't worry, Shibi-sensei will take care of it." Ibiki didn't even raise his head and concentrated on making the Military Rations pills as if he was used to it.

During the three-day rest period, Shiratori spent almost a day and a half lying on the ground numbly…

The most amazing thing is Might Duy and his son. They clearly know that something bad will happen if they get close to him, but they don't remember at all. Every time, one of them would get electrocuted, followed by the other one…

Buzz!

Shibi's army of Parasitic Insects arrived on time.

The three of them were surrounded by the Parasitic Insects and were bitten by them until the violent Chakra running through their bodies was sucked away.

 Parasitic Insects: These days, hey! It's all hard food!

After the Parasitic Insects left contentedly, the slightly embarrassed Shiratori stood up and spoke to the father and son as usual.

Shiratori: "Thank you."

Father and son: "You're welcome; friendship is synonymous with youthful passion!"

Shiratori was calm and even wanted to drive them away.

When he was electrocuted for the first time, he was so moved when he saw the father and son rushing to help him without fear of danger.

Then the second time, the third time…

Finally, the three of them lay on the ground and convulsed more than twenty times…

Shiratori was confused.

Are you two goldfish?

Are you here for my electrotherapy?

After persuading the passionate father and son to leave and repeatedly assuring them that "I am not hurting myself but practicing, so don't come over to take advantage of me," Shiratori sat on the ground and sighed to the sky.

Damn, Lightning Style is too difficult.

In fact, ordinary lightning ninjutsu is not difficult to learn (for Shiratori), but after reviewing the lightning ninjutsu that he had memorized by rote, Shiratori felt unsatisfied.

Among these ninjutsu, there are a lot of B-rank and C-rank ones, and there are even two A-rank ones that are kept in reserve. They are quite powerful, but it is a pity that there is no ninjutsu or swordsmanship that can be integrated with close combat.

Shiratori has the bloodline of Uchiha and Senju, so close combat must be his main training direction. If he cannot combine it with those two bloodlines, then there will not be much difference between Lightning and Fire Style for him. At best, it can expand his ninjutsu reserves and attack.

After Shiratori barely mastered a B-rank and a C-rank Lightning Style Jutsus, he stopped practicing and instead set his sights on ninjutsu from another village.

The Hidden Cloud Village's Lightning-Style Armour!

This ninjutsu was a secret of Hidden Cloud Village, and there was no way he could get it, so an idea suddenly occurred to him.

Anyway, both use Chakra to strengthen the body. The Lightning Style Armour and the Senju's Chakra Hidden Jutsu seem to be… Similar?

As soon as he said it, Shiratori transformed the Chakra into a lightning attribute, and then it penetrated into his muscles and bones using the Senju Hidden Jutsu.

As a result, everyone saw…

What an outstanding effect!

Shiratori felt his lightning resistance rising…

"As expected, in the end, it has to be Chidori."

It's a pity that Kakashi didn't come. Otherwise, he would beg him shamelessly. At worst, he could buy two small books whose contents can only be understood intuitively as a bribe…

Suddenly, a horn-signaling assembly sounded in the camp.

Shiratori jumped up and went to the command post with the team members.

Only after he arrived did he realize that the battle report from the Hidden Cloud Village's battlefield had finally arrived.

Konoha… A big victory!

Torifu Akimichi had a complicated expression. On the one hand, he was happy for Konoha's victory, but on the other hand, he was deeply worried.

It's not just autumn road that takes the wind.

Everyone knows that the biggest test on the southeast front is about to come.
