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

"I see, your target is also the dragon vein." Ling looked at Minato Namikaze and nodded slightly, "Then let me summarize - there is a man named An Lushan who wants to seize the energy of the dragon vein to rule the world, so - well, the Hokage sent you to assassinate this person. This mission is related to the survival of the ninja world, so you can't spare your energy to help me for the time being... right?"

Namikaze Minato nodded, his face full of apology, "I'm sorry... but we will try to speed up. Konoha has always been the home of the Uchiha clan, and will always be an ally of the Uzumaki clan!"

"It's just a family that looks like a family but is actually at odds with each other and allies that can never stand together in times of trouble..." Ling snorted and didn't look at the red-faced and embarrassed Minato Namikaze, "Besides, in this situation, Yi will be more comfortable than me. I can reconcile with him smoothly by just making some noise - you need bait, right?

Don't mind telling me that. After all, even though you were wary of Uchiha, you didn't just stand by and watch my situation. Instead, you helped me. Just consider this as a reward or an exchange."

"That won't do!" The embarrassed Minato Namikaze immediately said, "No matter how talented you are, you are still a child! There is no point in using a child as bait!"

Ling was stunned and couldn't help but twitching his mouth, "I'm not——"

"I know, you want to say that you are already a qualified ninja, so you don't want us to treat you as a child, right?" Namikaze Minato stretched out a finger and poked Ling's forehead, "But it's a pity - only children will have such an urgent idea to prove that they are adults, so from now on, just follow us and accept our protection, do you understand?"

Ling looked at the young man in front of him with a complicated expression. He looked so gentle that even when he was angry, he looked like he was acting like a spoiled child. He sighed and said, "I was only affected by the dragon vein and became like this. My real age should be about the same as yours."

Namikaze Minato shook his head in disapproval and regret, "Good kids, don't lie, okay?"

Ling: ...

Forget it, as long as you are happy.

Ling suppressed his speechlessness and decided not to waste any more words on this matter. He had some guesses about his situation, but he couldn't come to a definite conclusion before meeting Uzumaki Yi, so he chose to change the subject, "Just now you said that An Lushan's behavior might affect the ninja world, right?"

"Well, so he must be dealt with."

"Did the Hokage send people? Didn't the other Hokage react?" Ling looked at the obviously stunned Namikaze Minato in front of him and snorted, "Or rather, they reacted but gave up when they found it difficult to gain any benefit, while you did the exact opposite... What can you gain from this mission?"

"This is a secret—" Namikaze Minato looked away uncomfortably, turned around and put on the mask again, "Anyway, come with us first, we will protect you."

"Eh——So it's a test mission? Are you going to inherit something?"

Namikaze Minato slipped and turned around to ruffle Ling's hair, looking a little depressed. "Children should not ask about adults' affairs casually - children should be simple!"

[Around thirteen years old, he is still considered a child... It seems that the environment in Konoha is still peaceful - hehe, in the future when I am not around, Madara still pursues peace, what a kind child. ]

Looking at Ling in front of him who was chuckling and even had a slightly doting look on his face, Namikaze Minato felt particularly disheartened - this child was different from his little apprentice's reckless personality, and was also different from his contemporaries Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Mikoto. It could even be said that he was different from most of the arrogant Uchiha, which made him feel particularly difficult to get along with.

[After I go back, I will find an opportunity to ask Fugaku how this child was brought up, and why he wanted to raise such a child... It's fine to just keep asking questions through conversation, but it's too bad to deliberately point it out after seeing through the truth. ]

Thinking of this, Namikaze Minato unconsciously cast his gaze towards Ling, who was following behind with a contented look. [But if it weren't for the Uchiha clan uniform, I might not have thought that this talkative child was an Uchiha - by the way, this clan uniform seems to be different from the styles I have seen...but this child's behavior is not out of the ordinary, am I being overly sensitive? ]

"Mr. Minato, although I don't look like it, I'm actually a very powerful perception ninja. Even if you're wearing a mask, I can still feel you looking at me. If you have any questions, you can ask them directly. I won't hide the parts that I can tell you, but it's useless for you to guess the parts that I can't tell you."

Minato Namikaze immediately withdrew his gaze with some embarrassment - this child is really difficult to deal with!

Meanwhile, Uzumaki Naruto was looking at the puppets who treated them like air in amazement, and exclaimed, "So powerful! These guys really don't care about us! Brother Yi, you are so powerful!"

"Well, let's take this opportunity to find someone to gather intelligence—" Uzumaki Yi's eyes swept across the empty streets, "But even though this city is prosperous, it can't hide its desolation. It looks like it's going to take some effort to find someone!"

Uzumaki Naruto scratched the back of his head, "Actually, I saw someone when I first came here. How about we go back the way we came and look for him?"

"What a great idea! So Naruto, do you remember the way back? Or do you have a way to leave a trace on that person?"

"I don't remember, and I didn't leave any tracking information... I'm sorry."

"You don't need to apologize!" Uzumaki Yi raised his hand and patted Uzumaki Naruto's shoulder, "We are just returning to the original plan! Cheer up! There are always more solutions than problems! Don't you still have to deal with the problem of the dragon vein? You can't be so listless!"

Uzumaki Naruto looked at the man in front of him who was about the same age as him but seemed to have no dark side no matter what. After a brief stagnation, he smiled a little sadly, "Brother Yi is really a good person."

"No, no matter from which angle, I am undoubtedly not a good person! I can even be considered a sinner!"

"No! Brother Yi is definitely a good person! Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely!"

Looking at the inexplicably stubborn Uzumaki Naruto, Uzumaki Yi smiled and raised his hand to rub the top of his head, but did not respond. He just opened his perception, and Kagura's mind eyes silently and quietly scanned one life form after another, and finally fixed on a familiar chakra in the chaos, and the smile on the corner of her mouth spread, "Found it - he is really a person who is unwilling to be quiet.

Come on, Naruto, I'll introduce you to my best friend from Uchiha! You should know that before we came here, Ling was very sensitive to the reaction of dragon veins. If we have his help, the treatment of dragon veins can be solved quickly!"
