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

When Uzumaki Zhi and Uzumaki Yang left Uzumaki Yi to confirm how to proceed on this mission and began to organize their tribesmen, Ling and Uzumaki Yi finally ended their conversation and walked towards this side. When Ling got close to a certain distance, he stopped with a sense of propriety and found a shady place to sit cross-legged and rest.

Uzumaki Yi walked straight to Uzumaki Zhi, "Have you discussed it? What are my responsibilities?"

"My clan leader, did you just remember us?" Uzumaki raised his hands to cover his face, his voice full of despair, "You should pay more attention to the fact that you are the leader... Forget about the clan, but do you really want to lose face outside?"

Uzumaki Yi smiled and patted Uzumaki Zhi's shoulder. "Because I know Zhi and Yang are both capable and trustworthy companions, that's why I can rely on you so confidently! Tell me, what should I do?"

Uzumaki Osamu sighed and described their plan again, "That's it, but doing this will consume a lot of chakra, so I'm more worried about that guy..."

"Well, it's okay. Ling still needs me to do something. I will definitely not betray you this time!" Xuanwo Yi laughed loudly and raised his voice. "Hey, Ling, you can communicate with the dragon veins in a simple way, right? Come and help me later!"

Hearing this, Ling, who was sitting in the shade, raised his head slightly, his expression seemed a little confused, but in the end he just nodded to indicate that he would help, and continued to hold the cane and sword, thinking about something.

After arranging the team, Xuwo Yi also walked towards Ling and sat down next to him, "Speaking of which, I have something else I want to ask you!"

Ling snapped out of his thoughts and tilted his head slightly, "What?"

"Why did Ling say that to that kid Naruto in Loulan? It was simply too much for that kid!"

"Did I say something wrong?" Ling chuckled. "Self-righteous understanding, self-touching pursuit, and speech without any self-awareness... It's exactly the same as what that kid Hashirama is doing."

"I see... Then why did you become nicer to that kid in the end?"

"Because compared to Hashirama's intentional behavior, this kid is really stupid, and he is so stupid that he is heartless. I can even say that he is so stupid that I am a little embarrassed to bully him."

Ling showed a somewhat helpless expression, "Also, in his era, the Uchiha had already declined. If this child can continue to be so persistent, my descendant will probably have a destination to find some comfort after understanding everything."

"Sure enough, you also think that there is something fishy about the genocide of the Uchiha clan—" Uzumaki Yi touched his chin, "To be honest, I am really curious about how strong the man named Uchiha Itachi was to be able to genocide the entire Uchiha clan... Of course, I am also curious about the reason!"

"Oh, the reason? They were fooled. I've said it before, the people in our clan are easy to fool, and every once in a while there are a few who are particularly stupid. This is nothing more than the people in power think that the Uchiha are too powerful and cannot be controlled. They are unwilling to integrate into the group and decide to exclude them as a destabilizing factor... The younger generation probably thinks that the conflict between the village and the clan cannot be eased, so they choose the side with more people."

Ling laughed with an ambiguous tone, "Such a small setback pushed him to the brink of death. Future generations are really fragile... I still remember when I was five or six years old, some members of the tribe felt that my father's succession was not orthodox, so they started a civil war in the tribe."

Uzumaki Yi: ...the civil strife more than a decade ago? You and the Thousand Hands were fighting fiercely at that time, right? Seriously?

After a brief silence, Uzumaki Yi retracted his gaze and skipped over this somewhat sensitive topic. "I see that you have been in a bad mood since you came back? Do you think that the Otsutsuki are not easy to deal with? Don't worry, I will help."

"Although I'm not really happy, it's not about this..." Ling's smile faded a little, "I just thought I had gotten used to it, and I was mentally prepared before coming back, but in the end, there was still a gap - maybe I'm a little greedy."

Xuanwo Yi paused, then tilted his head to look at Ling again, "Humans are inherently greedy, and it is precisely this greed that drives them to improve their abilities regardless of whether it is good or bad, so I don't think Ling needs to review himself in this regard, and constantly remind himself in a biased way - people who are too sober and rational will sooner or later be crushed by the pressure they put on themselves."

"Haha... Don't worry, just like you said, I am Yaksha, Yaksha plus Rakshasa, an evil ghost with many changes." Ling smiled easily, "Have you heard of the term scourge for thousands of years?"

"That's good. After all, I still haven't given up on you. If you die suddenly, I will have a headache."

"Really? How come I'm the one complaining, but you're the one who's listless?" Ling couldn't help but chuckle. "Tell me, what do you want me to do to help you?"

"Aren't you very favored by the dragon vein? Please offer yourself a little later!"

After a brief silence, Ling leaned slightly away from Xuwo Yi, "...from your tone, it's hard for me not to think that you are planning to let me be sacrificed alive."

"There's nothing wrong with you thinking that way! Let's do it later!"

"No way! This is a very serious problem! Could you please not suddenly go off topic in the middle of a serious conversation?"

"But this will definitely scare Ling, and we'll get some very interesting reactions, hahahaha!"

Ling held his forehead weakly, "If you have any objections to me, you should just do it directly instead of trying to disgust me from these weird angles..."

"Haha, sorry, sorry. Anyway, I'll need you to help us determine the location of the dragon vein and calm it down while we perform the chakra stripping!"

"Yes, yes, I get it. Just call me when the time comes..." Ling waved his hand while holding his forehead, "You should go back to your home soon."

"Zhi will take care of the arrangements over there, let's talk about other things!"

Ling: ...It's really killing me.
