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

Namikaze Minato watched with his own eyes as Ling Xing dodged the combined attacks of several puppets with light and nimble movements like a ghost, while at the same time swinging the staff sword, which was slightly heavier than his current body, to destroy the core of the puppets. Not only did he perform a series of movements without hesitation, but they were even so fast that they left some afterimages in the air that could be captured by people.

But what surprised Minato Namikaze the most was that Ling completed all these actions with his eyes closed.

[It was a very exciting and neat battle. If it could be recorded, it could be used as a teaching material by the school...] ​​Namikaze Minato nodded secretly, but he couldn't help but feel a little worried. [But this child's fighting consciousness seems to have been specially cultivated, and his fighting style is also very strange for an Uchiha...

She is still so young, and she was very cautious during the conversation just now. Some of the grammar she used was also very strange. Could she be a talent selected and secretly cultivated by the Root? 】

"Mr. Minato, you should retreat first. These puppets are obviously targeting me." Ling chopped off the core on the chest of a puppet again, and landed lightly on the building next to Minato Namikaze, but his eyes were looking at the puppets that were coming in a hurry not far away, "You saw it too, right?

These puppets only stop using ranged attacks when attacking me, and they are now consciously forcing our retreat route - you guys go find a location first, and I'll play with these guys for a while."

"It's too dangerous. I told you that you're still a child. Just be well protected and grow up." Namikaze Minato said with disapproval in his tone, "You should retreat with Akimichi Choza and Aburame Shiwei first. I'll take care of these things."

"Good suggestion, but I don't accept it—" Feeling the sadness and distress coming from Minato Namikaze, the smile on Ling's lips couldn't help but spread a little, "After all, I said it before, I'm not a child."

Ling jumped up again to avoid the embrace of a puppet, stepped on its arm and jumped onto a building, "Besides, I don't agree with this completely protected way of growth... A seedling that has not experienced wind, rain and thunderstorms cannot grow into a towering tree. Asking the little guys who grew up in this safe environment to go to the battlefield is simply asking them to die."

Namikaze Minato frowned and wanted to refute, but the moment his sight met Ling's landing, his expression changed when he saw several puppets suddenly rushing out from the building under his feet, and the kunai with the ritual mark in his hand was shot towards Ling's position without thinking.

The strangely shaped kunai pierced through the puppets in an instant, and Ling, who felt it, subconsciously frowned and dodged it, but he felt himself being grabbed by the waist only halfway through the move. He opened his eyes in surprise and looked at Minato Namikaze who appeared beside him, and asked in particular surprise, "Space-time ninjutsu?"

Before he could finish his words, he was taken away from the battle circle by Minato Namikaze, who held him under his arm. At the same time, he was hit hard on the head. Minato Namikaze's slightly muffled voice came from above, "You are such a troublesome little fellow! Ding Zuo, take him away. I will go and deal with those puppets."

Ling, who was handed over to Akimichi Chozo, did not resist, but looked at Namikaze Minato with extreme curiosity. He saw him take out several special kunai in each hand and shoot at the puppet, but he suddenly stopped at the moment he was about to step into the battlefield, and looked warily at the golden chain that shot out and pierced the core of the puppet in front of him.

"Don't be so alert, my friend is here to see you."

Hearing the voice, Namikaze Minato tilted his head slightly to look at Ling, who was being held under the arm of Akimichi Choza. His movements were restricted but he was still calm and nonchalant. "Companion... a member of the Uzumaki clan?"

"Not a companion, but a friend - why don't you put me down? It might lead to misunderstanding."

Just as Namikaze Minato was about to speak, he heard a slightly immature but exceptionally hearty voice coming from the direction where the puppets had been before, "There is absolutely no misunderstanding! I have used Kagura's mind eye to sense clearly whether these people have any ill intentions or not - but Ling's appearance does surprise me!"

"Surprising?" Ling looked up at Uzumaki Yi who had jumped down from above, and the blond boy of similar age who was following behind him with a silly look on his face. "It's your appearance that surprised me - you've also become smaller, right?"

"Well, he looks about sixteen years old!" Uzumaki Yi glanced at the trio who were still wary of him but were particularly curious about Uzumaki Naruto, "It seems that I need to prepare a few more things - first find a ruin in the tower, it seems that puppets can't enter that kind of place. And Ling, you sneak attacked me, I think we need to settle the matter!"

"Well, I have no objection - Mr. Ding, can you let me go? Well, thank you." Ling landed again and straightened his clothes a little, then looked at the puppets that surrounded him again not far away, "You are really persistent..."

"Dragon vein?" Xuanwo Yi walked to Ling's side, first looked at him curiously, then looked at the puppets that were approaching quickly, "Can you still hear the sound?"

"Yes, but it's more of a consciousness than a sound... Anyway, let's retreat first - what's with that look in your eyes?"

"Nothing, it's just that seeing you like this reminds me of a lot of bad things!" Uzumaki Yi crossed his arms, "For example, you almost chopped off my arms and shredded my heart! Why don't you cover your eyes, it will be more comfortable that way!"

Ling frowned slightly, "I know about the arm, but the heart?"

"It was when we met in the Land of Thunder!" Uzumaki Yi slightly opened his shirt, revealing the scar that stretched from his left shoulder to the center of his abdomen, "This is it."

"…I was already blind at that time. Don't try to confuse injuries from different periods - and you were so badly injured at that time, how dare you let me bite you?"

“This is what is called bluffing! After all, you were at the end of your strength that day, weren’t you?” Xuanwo Yi laughed loudly, and the diamond blockade that had originally dissipated spread out again, swiftly smashing several attacking puppets and rolling up the puppet cores that were still intact in the wreckage, and then took a step in one direction, “Let’s go, there happens to be a tower ruin nearby, we can take some time to talk everything out!”
