Naruto: Let's take a look at the blind Uchiha

When Ling went home to take care of himself and then went to the meeting hall, there were already crowds of people outside the meeting hall. Ling stopped outside the crowd, intending to make a seal and then use the Eight-foot-Sweep to ask his father alone - after all, he was the son of the clan leader, so it was okay for him to cut in line and accept the task.

But before he could do anything, he heard someone calling his name -

"Ling Jun! Over here! Come here quickly!"

Ling paused in his seal-making movements, tilted his head slightly to confirm the direction, and then walked over, tapping his staff and sword, "Is everyone here?"

"Well, except for people like Yugu who focus on logistics, everyone is here." Uchiha Akihiko, who was standing at the front, said, "They are now dividing the battle zones for the uncles. It's not our turn yet."

At this time, Uchiha Chiho, who had just spoken, also came over and said, "Long time no see, Lingjun~"

"Long time no see, Chiho," Ling turned to the direction of the voice and nodded slightly, "Your pupil power has improved a lot."

"Of course, I have to work hard to stay alive," Chiho raised her hand and tossed her high ponytail, "Although we Uchiha are well-known, there are too many people who don't know how to use their eyes when they go to the black market. When they are not wearing their clan uniforms, they are just like a group of jackals that have smelled blood."

"Speaking of this, I encountered this last time as well," Uchiha Kenji also leaned over with his arms folded, "that uncle suddenly leaned over and hugged me, which made me feel sick..."

"I can't help it. You're prettier than many girls in the tribe," Uchiha Hiro sneered. "If you're really annoyed, just put on a veil. I see you're enjoying it."

Uchiha Kenji snorted and pointed at Uchiha Hiro, "Although I can't recognize your face, but, Uchiha Hiro, there is no one else of your generation who speaks with such a tone that deserves a beating except Hong."

"Wow, this is incredible, Kenji, you actually got it right—"

This time, Uchiha Kenji glared at the direction of the voice with his Sharingan, "And you, Uchiha Masaki, don't think I'll admit my mistake with such a recognizable voice - after this battle, I will definitely teach you two a lesson!"

"You can find someone by then..." Uchiha Masaki touched the back of his neck, looking quite tired, "Really, just spare me, a peace-loving Uchiha, I don't like fighting..."

Uchiha Hiro glanced over and said, "Isn't this the time for you to play a game of chase with your enemy?"

"I did that just to make it easier to torture him later. You don't know how much my conscience condemned me when I did that!"

"Hmm? You still have a conscience?" Uchiha Akihiko looked at him with disdain and confusion, "Why did I remember you said before that you like cat and mouse games the most?"

“Hey, hey, hey, the opponent at that time was the Senju…” Uchiha Masaki tried to find an ally for himself, and finally his eyes turned around and fell on Ling, “Hey, Ling, come and judge for me, Uchiha should hate the Senju, right?”

"Although my methods against Qianshou were very cruel, I don't hate this kind of opponent..." Ling tilted his head slightly, "I would say I like him quite a bit?"

"Heh, you found Ling when you were looking for an ally," Uchiha Hong raised his chin, "Do you want me to show you my brain?"

"Uchiha Hong, you better be careful. Am I afraid of Ling? Am I also afraid of you, the eternal second-in-command? Don't think you are so great just because you opened the Mangekyō!"

"Who are you calling second forever, you idiot?!"

"Oh, you're anxious, you're anxious~ Who is so pitiful that you always come second in everything you do? Oh - it turns out to be you~"

The two young and energetic Uchiha just started quarreling. Uchiha Kenji was cheering and fanning the flames, trying to make the feud between the two even bigger. The other Uchiha had no intention of stopping them. Instead, they started to take sides and point fingers, looking like they were just enjoying the fun.

Ling, who was surrounded by the crowd at the beginning, was also pushed out by the crowd who were watching the fun and stood on the periphery, shaking his head.

Uchiha Chiho also squeezed out, and couldn't help but look behind him and complain, "Really, they can quarrel over such a small matter... How childish."

"Haha, but they are all very reliable, aren't they? And keeping a relaxed attitude is also good for performance on the battlefield," Ling laughed softly, but soon the smile faded a lot, "The familiar chakra is much less... Chiho, do you know anything?"

“Well…” Chiho turned around and looked at her peers who were gathered in groups of three or four, looking in at the excitement here, and lowered her voice, “Hatsuki, Chinatsu, Wakasa…”

She said one name after another, and after saying more than twenty names, Uchiha Chiho finally added the last sentence, "These people... have gone to the Pure Land.

Most of the others who didn't come were like Yougu, who knew nothing about fighting, so the clan didn't call them this time - after all, we are not the main fighting force of the two clans. However, if Yougu and the others can survive smoothly, they will surely have to go to the battlefield when they reach the age. "

Ling was silent for a moment, then nodded, "It's less than I thought... But it's really scary. It feels like not much time has passed, but there are so many familiar people who are only left with a name."

Uchiha Chiho also raised her hand to curl her drooping hair, looking a little lonely, "Yes, life is really too fragile... Hey, Lingjun."

Ling felt his hand being held, and uttered a nasal sound in confusion, "Hmm?"

"Ling Jun, are you really not going to reconsider it?" Uchiha Chiho looked at the white ribbon on Ling's face, with only worry in her beautiful eyes, "Ling Jun obviously doesn't need to force himself like this anymore. Isn't it better to choose a safer way to live?"

"Haha, for someone like me who loves fighting, it would be even more cruel for me to stay away from fighting."

"But, but Ling Jun will have to face more than just the targeting of his peers," Uchiha Chiho's voice trembled, "If, if..."

Uchiha Chiho's uneasiness was clearly conveyed through her voice and her unconsciously trembling hands. After a brief silence, Ling held the girl's hand and said gently, "Don't worry, I will return safely this time as usual.

And didn’t you say it all? I’m the best of my generation. Because I’m the best, I’ll try my best to win no matter how hard it is. After all, you’re right behind me, right? "
