【General Host Naruto】Mabuchi

Uchiha Madara, the young leader of the Uchiha clan, was deeply confused today.

During the Warring States Period, ninja families practiced primogeniture according to tradition. This system helps preserve the "family" as a whole. Tajima is the purest head of the Uchiha clan, and the remaining clan members (divisions) have a two-way relationship of protection and dedication with him.

This is the source of Madara's sense of responsibility. He has become accustomed to the expectations of his tribe.

"As expected, Quan Nai and I will assist you after Madara becomes the clan leader. Quan Nai is careful and calm, and he will master the power of combat, interrogation and intelligence. I will master the noble connections, medical care, logistics, etc."

"But Brother Madara, let me tell you now, I am unwilling." The girl said to him in an almost cold tone, "You have just learned about my ninjutsu and how much potential it has for development. I can honestly Let me tell you, I need your support in my idea."

"Do you want to?"

Do not treat her as an object of protection, subordinate or sister, but an equal partnership.

After Madara left, he looked in a rare daze. He didn't think about such long-term things, he just wanted to protect his relatives as much as possible, and maybe in the future it would cover the entire Uchiha ninja clan.

However, someone now told him that he had to consider not only dreams, but also practical things, which might be a heavier responsibility.

Where is the father?

What would my father think?

Madara walked in the corridor and unknowingly slowed down: Yes, Tajima's opinion was very obvious, so Mabuchi would talk to him alone, and he only said it after the ninjutsu was invented.

It wasn't just Uchiha who spoke in her words.

☆

After Madara left, I lay on the bed with my eyes open for a long time.

I think this young boy must have been hit hard. Compared with his pure dedication, I had the intention of taking advantage of him.

When he was still very young and confused, he used adult thinking and ways to oppress him without any scruples. I knew very well that I was forcing him to make a decision, at a time when he was worried about his sister and in pure pain.

……

Ah, this is so cruel and callous.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk," a cautious knock came from outside the sliding door. I raised my eyebrows, and the chakra induction told me that it was Qianyi, and they had finished handling the matter.

"Lord Zhenyuan."

Qianyi's voice was low, "We are very happy to hear that you woke up, because we have just finished processing your arrangements, so we are late."

Oh wow, they not only reported it to Tajima, but also to me?

Quickly sensing this signal, I raised my voice, "It's okay, come in Qianyi."

The beautiful girl carefully opened the door. The moment she entered, she looked around, and her twin Magatama Sharingan flashed out.

"Click", the paper door closed, Qianyi bowed his head and said, "Lord Zhenyuan."

"Don't be so formal."

I smiled and said, "This is too much of a courtesy, Qianyi."

Qianyi's body paused for a long time. She raised her face and said solemnly: "No, Master Mabuchi, Master Tajima has made me the captain of the medical ninja of the clan..."

There was a moment of hesitation on the girl's face, but it immediately turned into determination, "I will try my best."

For a few seconds, my thinking was sluggish.

Tajima actually took the initiative to make Qianyi the captain. Did he get the consent of the clan elders or was it his own initiative? He knew that Madara told him or him...

"This was decided at a small meeting." Qianyi said eloquently, "Tajima-sama is busy with the war, and Yamazato-sama, Tayo-sama and Mori-sama agreed to submit the application."

"Not long after you woke up."

At that time, Tajima was still dealing with tasks, so Madara's chances were slim. I breathed a sigh of relief. This meant that Qianyi's report was very good, and the three elders in charge of the clan saw the benefits.

What makes me feel more at ease within the Uchiha clan is that there are not many power struggles, the rights and responsibilities of the main family and the branch families are clearly arranged, and the three elders are dedicated to the Uchiha.

"In addition, the three elders have some questions about the report they submitted. I can't answer the part that involves you," Qianyi bowed his head, "I hope you can understand."

She is so cute.

I whispered, my tone gentle and gentle, "Qian Yi, you did a good job. With you here, I feel supported."

A blush quietly appeared on Qianyi's face. She grabbed the corners of her clothes with both hands and said silently, "That's too much praise, Master Zhenyuan..."

"Have a good rest after the mission and balance work with rest." I said, "Don't forget to review that scroll..."

Following the direction of his fingertips, Qianyi found a scroll with a sealing technique. "There are new directions in it. You can think about the care of our people's eyes in your free time."

If this task is completed, it will be beneficial to the entire Uchiha. Qianyi understood and felt deeply grateful to the person in front of him, "Please forgive me for resigning, sir."

"Go."

Qianyi's departure took away the last glow of the sunset. I closed my eyes and opened them again. After Madara left, the chakra flow in my eyes accelerated a lot. If nothing unexpected happened, there should be two magatama inside.

...Ah, their influence on me is so great

There are still a lot of things that need to be dealt with, but unexpectedly, I don't want to think about those. Facing the empty room, darkness quietly eroded the pale yellow walls. In a daze, I saw large tracts of black in different shades.

"□□□......"

"□□□......"

An unknown voice called. I stared at my palm for a long time, opened a prepared scroll, wrote my name, and made a seal——

"Well...you finally summoned me. Zhenyuan."

A long black snake swam out from the scroll, its red eyes filled with blood, cruelty and endless deep darkness. It is about a person long, and the material of its scales is reminiscent of jade, which contains exquisite beauty. When rubbed against the body, it feels like a living thing. "True abyss, true abyss..."

"Psychic beast... No, you are mine..."

"Ah, as expected of you, I knew you would react." The long snake was crooked in my hand, "Call me Zhenyao, I'm easy to take care of, I don't need food, just chakra."

"Is this name also a carrier?" I comforted it, and the touch from my fingertips was cool and slippery. The moment it appeared, I felt like something I had been missing for a long time came back to me, like a half body.

"Be careful. If I am injured, you may be injured too. But I will die in front of Zhenyuan." Zhenyao said, wrapping around my body dependently, "Normally I will hide in your body and help you sense danger. , instilling chakra will become your clone...and..."

The long snake gradually became smaller, and its voice became lower and lower, and disappeared with nostalgia, "I miss you so much, □□□."

☆

Within a few days, my body and mind were mostly recovered. In contrast, the amount of chakra stored has been further increased, and Madara said: "This cannot be a reason for you to toss around at will in the future."

I feel a little guilty.

"Several forces on the border of fire and earth are becoming more and more powerful." Madara held his hands and thought about the situation on the map, "The daimyo's control over the city lords under them is not very high. Among them, the Shimazu family is the most powerful and has formed alliances with the surrounding city lords. Private alliance.”

"They are the ones who have just received the mission, asking to inquire about the owner of the border city and need protection if necessary... Father is considering how to reply. If he refuses, the mission will most likely be assigned to Thousand Hands."

Madara looked sideways at me, "What do you think."

After the conversation with Madara, a me was added to the communication that originally only flowed between father and son. He sought my advice seriously and seemed helplessly relaxed.

Tajima was not there, so I scanned the map and whispered, "There is no possibility of conflict in the tasks assigned to the clan. Previously, the daimyo's control over the border covered Shimadzu's territory. Now, the Shimadzu alliance controls several cities on the border. Make a request for cooperation..."

"Handle the Shimadzu Alliance's mission as quickly as possible, and then kill several city lords except Shimazu before the daimyo's new mission is issued."

"Yes." Madara frowned and cleared his thoughts, "This requires very tight time, and it is difficult for the manpower within the clan to support two-sided operations."

"I'll go. Thunder Escape can increase your speed, and you can travel thousands of miles alone~"

"..."

Madara looked at me speechlessly, "Maabuchi, stop joking at this time. Father will never make a decision that puts pressure on the line."

The ninjas are not nobles, and behind every decision there are high risks and high demands without any guarantee.

"It's rare for brothers and sisters to talk together." I chuckled, "Isn't the answer just now cute? Don't be too nervous when thinking, we have other considerations."

Madara smiled and touched my head, "Okay, there's more."

"Yeah, my father is used to being in control of the overall situation. We have been fighting at the junction of fire and earth with the Senju, Fuma, Hagoromo, Iga and other ninjas for half a month. Our opponents are all ninjas from the land of earth." I slowly drew a line on the map. It was the focus of the recent tug-of-war on Red Eye, a narrow and dangerous place. "They were closer to the border, and the Fire Nation was the first to hire them, so they didn't choose us who were more powerful."

Spotted Head said, "Yes, the daimyo of the Earth Kingdom is more harsh in his methods. He trusts the ninja clan near the Earth Kingdom."

"And now the border is advancing towards the Earth Country. He realized that we had the advantage, so he 'mentioned' the Shimadzu Alliance to the Fire Country daimyo." I organized my words and blinked under Madara's serious gaze, "I have doubts in my heart. , the daimyo had to consider whether continuing to advance would bring the strength of the subordinate city closer."

"Well, the alliance side..."

"I understand the daimyo very well. But I am not ready to give up." I smiled, "So prepare your ninjas. The fact that they will find Uchiha instead of others can prove that we are the best at attacking cities and territories, and we are the first choice for the daimyo of the Fire Country in this battle. Ninja clan."

"The other city lords don't object either..." Madara sighed, "It's really for Shimazu..."

"After all, Shimadzu advocates its own independence." I gave the latest news I received, "Once the momentum is established, the future is limitless."

"Then the one who protects the city lord is undoubtedly the Senju." Madara sighed, "The only ones who can fight against Uchiha are the Senju and Hashirama..."

"Father is going to the border. Brother Ban, you and the elders are in charge of the clan. I am the one who is left in charge."

"Ah..." Madara puffed up his face and said unconvinced, "That's not necessarily the case. I'm stronger. Isn't it necessary to kill someone who is stronger?"

That was before. In order to compensate me and increase my voice, Tajima would give me more grueling tasks. At the same time, he is also looking forward to a better solution.

Silently, I poked the little boy's bulging cheek, "Madara~"

"Pfft~"

A short laugh bloomed at the fingertips, and Madara held my fingertips, "Okay, stay safe, Mabuchi."
