I, Giyuu Uchiha, am not hated!

On the last day of Konoha's fifty-third year, heavy snow fell in the village, and the trees and houses were covered in silver.

The four Hokages on Shadow Rock put on festive "wool" hats, as if they were looking forward to the ninja world still maintaining this superficial peace next year.

Uchiha Mikoto and Giyuu wore woolen hats and walked out of the house, planning to make a purchase.

"Is it really not cold to wear this way? Yuiyong?"

Unlike Uchiha Mikoto, who was wearing a woolen coat, Giyuu was only wearing a Uchiha-style turtleneck, long sleeves and children's shorts.

From time to time, a thick and hot white mist came out of his mouth, and a lovely red color appeared on both cheeks, but if you look closely, you can see that this is not caused by the cold.

"I'm fine."

Yiyong, half of his face hidden in his high collar, took the lead in walking towards the gate of the clan.

"Wait for me, Yiyong."

Uchiha Mikoto stopped Giyuu and stretched out a hand in front of him.

"Can you hold mom's hand? Otherwise, I might slip. Yiyong doesn't want to see his mom fall to the ground in such an embarrassing state."

Jiyong showed a confused expression.

"But Itachi can step directly on water."

[Jounin, how could you slip on the snow? 】

Uchiha Mikoto was stunned for a moment, then showed a sly smile: "But mom is not as powerful as Itachi, so Giyuu has to protect me."

Then her expression became aggrieved, and she wiped the corners of her eyes with her fingers, as if she was about to cry in the next second.

"Does Giyuu only care about Sasuke and Itachi in his heart, and doesn't care about his father and mother at all? I'm really sad."

[Hurry up, hurry up and hook up, hurry up and hook up, Yongyong! 】

Sure enough, he found that his mother's expression was indeed "sad", and Yiyong's small palm immediately grabbed her three fingers.

Uchiha Mikoto immediately turned her tears into laughter.

"Compared to this..."

However, the next moment, Yiyong stared at her and asked very seriously: "Are the Jonin assessments in Konoha Village too lax? Is Itachi really safe when performing tasks in the village? If it is found that he can't even tread water , you will be punished, right?"

After all, it was really simple, and he learned it after just reading it once.

The smile on Mikoto's face gradually turned petrified.

But after she squeezed Yiyong's little hand, she suddenly said in surprise: "Hey, Yiyong, why are you so hot...do you have a fever?"

"No." Yiyong shook his head firmly.

His body temperature will increase sharply because he is practicing the breath of fire.

This morning, after inducing Sasuke to use "small fireballs" several times, Giyuu finally completely analyzed the breath of fire.

[Current breathing method resolution progress - Breathing of Fire: 100%; Breathing of Wind: 9.8%; Breathing of Thunder: 4.1%; Breathing of Rock: 2.4%; Breathing of Moon: 15.44%; Breathing of Sun: 0%. 】

At present, the practice method of Breathing of Flame, the nine sword styles and Changzhong's breathing rhythm have all been imprinted in Yiyong's mind.

Next, as long as Yiyong can practice the breath of fire to a normal level, he can use the medium of spirit to channel the spirit of Infernal Anjuro.

However, there seems to be something extra required to perform this kind of necromancy.

[Please prepare human gene carriers (such as hair, blood, saliva, skin) as psychic materials. The constitution of the resurrected pillar will be affected by the gene carrier. 】

Yiyong had never heard of the word gene, but after asking a child in the clan who liked to read, he probably understood——

For example, if his own hair is used as material when channeling, then the body of Purgatory Anjuro after resurrection will most likely have some of his characteristics, maybe black hair; maybe blue eyes; maybe a Sharingan. The limit of blood inheritance...

But Giyuu really couldn't accept a black-haired Purgatory Anjuro, and as far as he knew, Purgatory himself was quite proud of that hair color, and said that it was acquired by his ancestors who ate too much fried shrimp for generations.

So Giyuu planned to go out on the streets today to see if he could find someone whose hair color and physical features were close to those of Purgatory Anjuro himself.

But considering the unique red-yellow hair color, he actually didn't hold out much hope. He just wanted to find someone with red or yellow hair and a stronger body.

As for how to interact with the other party and ask for a piece of hair, that will happen later.

anyway.

Uchiha Mikoto was not at ease and carefully examined Giyuu's body.

Yiyong's physique has always been the best among the three brothers. He has never had a cold since he was a child.

But there is also a saying among the people: people who don't usually get minor illnesses will become extremely serious when they get sick.

This idea would occasionally rush into Mikoto's mind like a crazed cow, so she checked it with great concentration.

But after careful inspection, she found that Yiyong was not simply suffering from a fever.

He is more like a burning furnace, constantly radiating heat outwards.

Those snowflakes falling from the sky, which cannot even be touched within ten centimeters of Yiyong's body, will be immediately evaporated by an invisible heat wave on the spot. This is far beyond what the disease can achieve.

Rather than being sick, it seemed like the boiling release ninjutsu that Mikoto had seen on the Jinchuriki of Iwagakure Village during the Great Ninja War.

"Yiyong, you are really awesome."

Uchiha Mikoto stared at her son's eyes, as if she wanted to find out something.

She said in a lively tone: "In summer, you are cooler than a refrigerator, and in winter, you are warmer than a furnace..."

Then, she suddenly hugged Yiyong, squeezed her face and Yiyong's face together, and rubbed them together like a lion.

"Mom is so envious of you!"

Tomioka Yoshiyuki's expression changed drastically on the spot. He was horrified and wanted to retreat, but he couldn't break away without using chakra. If he used it, it would be easy to hurt his mother who couldn't even tread water.

The last time he felt this way was when Mitsuri Kanroji tried to tickle him during the Hashira meeting (in the official novel).

"Okay, okay, I'll scare you."

Mikoto couldn't laugh or cry when she saw Giyuu's expression for the first time. After helping Giyuu adjust the woolen hat on her head, she stood up.

[I really don’t know what kind of girl Yiyong will marry in the future...]

[A shy kid like Izumi probably can't even make Giyuu change his expression. 】

[But if you are a girl who takes too much initiative, will Jiyong be bullied? 】

Uchiha Mikoto was thinking about what would happen many years later, while holding Giyuu's hand and continuing to walk out.

On the other hand, Yiyong's face was full of worry, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he even forgot to maintain his breath of fire.

"Yoyong!"

When he reached the main gate of the clan, Giyuu heard someone calling his name. When he looked up, it was Uchiha Gan.

The other party was holding a bag of fireworks, waving to Giyuu excitedly, and then bowed slightly to Mikoto, who had a restrained expression.

Yiyong just nodded slightly in return, but the other party didn't care. He gave Yiyong a lollipop and left. Apparently he was used to his cold way of getting along.

Next, Giyuu met a group of Uchiha boys who were building snowmen.

When they saw Giyu and Mikoto, they all stopped and invited Giyu to play together, but he still refused.

It wasn't until the mother and son walked out of the clan that Mikoto poked her head and said, "Giyu, I didn't expect that you have such a good relationship with the children of the clan. Do all of them know you?"

This surprised her.

The Uchiha clan is notoriously difficult to please, and with Yugi's character, it should be even harder.

Ever since she was freed from housework, she had been working as a leader. She had no idea that Sasuke and Giyuu were training with the children of the clan during the day in Itachi's absence.

At the beginning, there were only three genin, Gan Wentui, and Giyu Sasuke.

But when those younger children saw that even genin were "playing" with Giyu Sasuke, they naturally came over one after another.

Under the influence of Gan Wenchui, they gradually realized that Yiyong's advice could make their training more effective, so they were very grateful to Yiyong, not to mention that Yiyong would often bring delicious food to share with them. Over time, everyone became friends.

And thanks to the Uchiha children's tendency to show off and rush to spit fireballs at the lake every day, the resolution of Giyuu's breath of fire continues to increase...

To be honest, they are grateful to Yiyong, and Yiyong is also grateful to them.

It would probably take more than a year to get enough resolution just by Itachi and Sasuke.

Therefore, facing Mikoto's doubts, Giyuu said quite seriously: "They are all friends of me and Sasuke."

"Oh, Giyuu is really surprising."

She patted the back of Yiyong's head happily and said, "If you think about it this way, you have more friends than my brother."

Uchiha Shisui is the only one who can be called a friend by Uchiha Itachi.

But compared to friends, they are more like brothers who are not related by blood.

After mother and son crossed the Konoha River twice, they stopped in front of a store on the main street.

The signboard of this restaurant is pink with the words "山中花" written on it, and it looks very girly.

"Yiyong, I plan to buy some molan and cyclamen to take home. Do you want to come with me?"

Uchiha Mei asked emphatically: "It might take a little longer."

When Yiyong heard that it would take longer, he was about to go directly to the vegetable market to save time, but he noticed a little figure with yellow hair flashing through the glass door of the flower shop.

[Although the color is a bit light, it is indeed yellow...]

"I am coming too."

"Hey, that's great."

Uchiha Mikoto burst out with a big smile, "How about you also choose a beautiful flower to give to mom?"

With that said, before Yiyong could agree, she immediately pushed the door open and walked in. An extremely warm and moist breath rushed toward the two of them.

"Welcome to Yamanaka Flower Shop."

A woman with a noble and gentle temperament walked out from behind the flower stand and said with a smile on her face: "It's Mrs. Uchiha. It's been a long time since I last saw you. When you come here, our store is really shining."

Although this was a standard flattery sentence, when it came from her mouth, not only did it not make people feel uncomfortable, but it actually made people feel flattered.

It's a bit like the feeling that Kanae, the butterfly butterfly, gave Giyuu when she was still around.

Giyuu only glanced at the thickness and color of the blood vessels in the woman's neck to know that she was not a non-ninja.

"You're too polite. I'm young, so just call me Mikoto."

"Since you ask so, I won't be polite."

Then, the lady in the mountain turned her attention to Giyu: "But, how come Sasuke feels the same as before -"

"Mom? Is Sasuke here?"

A careless voice came from the back room, followed by another clang, and then the door opened. The girl with short light yellow hair poked her head out from behind the counter, staring at Yiyong with two shining sky-blue eyes.

Soon, a look of doubt appeared on her face.

"Ino, don't be so frizzy, come to me."

Mrs. Yamanaka waved, and Yamanaka Ino immediately came to stand next to her, looking at Giyuu with a trace of scrutiny in his eyes.

"No, Mom." She said firmly, "He is not Sasuke."

"Oh, I originally wanted to tease Ino."

Uchiha Mikoto covered her mouth and chuckled, and then explained to Mrs. Yamanaka: "This is Sasuke's twin brother, Giyuu. This is the first time he went shopping with me. Speaking of which, there are obviously many tribesmen who can't tell the difference. Qing and the two brothers, but Ino can tell them at a glance, they are really amazing. "

"Of course!"

Ino raised her head with her hands on her hips and proudly brushed the broken hair from her forehead.

"From the first time I met Sasuke, I planned to marry him into the Yamanaka family. How could I admit my mistake?"

When the two parents heard this, they looked at each other and laughed in unison, almost to the point of tears.

"Why are you laughing!"

Ino didn't quite understand the scene in front of her and said angrily: "Do you think I can't do it?"

The mothers laughed harder.

Ino saw that they were just laughing and no one paid attention to her, and then turned her attention to Giyuu, who was of the same height: "Hey, do you think I can't do it too?"

Uchiha Mikoto knew that there was something good to watch, so she gave Mrs. Yamanaka a "stop for a moment" expression, then folded her arms and waited for her volunteerism to show off.

"me……"

Giyuu stared at Ino blankly, thinking about what she said about marrying Sasuke, and suddenly realized something.

"Sorry, I just noticed that you are a boy."

[If it’s a girl, she should get married. 】

"you!"

Ino's eyes suddenly widened. She didn't expect to hear her most disgusting words from Sasuke's brother!

["Ino, don't act like a boy all day long!\
