Chapter 13 Madara: I saw Izuna's shadow in Kiyoha.
"White Zetsu."
Madara Uchiha opened his cloudy eyes and looked at the white figure in front of him.
He sat on a huge chair made of woven wood, with many pipes inserted behind him.
Behind those pipes was a giant "Outer Path Golem".
"Let's begin."
Madara Uchiha said calmly.
Although he never leaves his house, he controls intelligence throughout the entire ninja world through the vast underground network formed by the White Zetsu.
The reason is simple: White Zetsu can not only use the "Mayfly Technique" to freely merge their bodies with the earth and vegetation, but also move at high speed to any location.
In addition, White Zetsu can communicate telepathically over long distances and possess powerful "Disguise Techniques," allowing them to infiltrate any ninja village at will.
White Zetsu emerged from the ground, half its body still buried in the soil, and began to report to its leader:
"Today, Obito walked back and forth on the street twice, picking up things that had fallen on the ground for the same White Zetsu twice."
Madara Uchiha did not speak, but simply nodded slightly.
Obito is becoming kinder and kinder.
Seeing an elderly person fall, I can't help but help them up; I care more about others than myself.
This kind of person is the most perfect, because when he loses everything, his kindness will bounce back like a broken blade, turning into hatred that can pierce the entire world.
Madara Uchiha knew very well that Obito was definitely not the kind of person who could endure indefinitely.
This kind of half-baked saintly figure is most likely to stir up the darkness and hatred in one's heart.
"Where is Qingyu?"
He asked.
Although Madara Uchiha had been paying attention to Obito for some time.
However, he was more interested in Kiyoha, who was in the same class as Obito.
Qingyu possesses the same bloodline as him, as well as the same bloodline as Hashirama, making him a very special existence.
If Hashirama had agreed with his ideals back then, the two wouldn't have parted ways.
Perhaps there are many more cases like Qingyu's in the clan.
Furthermore, Qingyu was born with the Sharingan and was very intelligent, which shows that being of mixed races does not actually cause conflict.
Most importantly, Madara Uchiha began to hallucinate from Kiyoha's handsome face.
Kiyoyu really looks like Izuna, his beloved younger brother.
Madara Uchiha closed his eyes, and Izuna's face, which had appeared repeatedly in his memory, surfaced in the darkness once again.
The death of his younger brother was also the greatest pain in Madara Uchiha's heart.
If it hadn't been for an accident, his beloved younger brother wouldn't have died at the hands of the despicable Tobirama Senju.
"His performance was outstanding, with a perfect score in ninja tool throwing and a successful Three Body Technique on the first try. However, there is still a lack of specific combat information. He has only fought Kakashi once."
Bai Jue reported information about Qing Yu.
At the same time, Madara Uchiha was also lost in memories.
Like all elderly people, Madara Uchiha enjoys reminiscing about the past as he gets older.
In the Uchiha clan, the bond between brothers surpasses everything else.
He and his younger brother also supported each other. Compared to his arrogance, his younger brother Izuna was not only a genius, but also more calm and composed.
If I had to put it in a way, he'd be like an Uchiha version of Tobirama Senju.
Even this calm younger brother, on his deathbed, wished for peace for his family and bestowed his Mangekyou Sharingan upon his brother.
Looking back, tears still flowed...
"Lord Madara, I've finished speaking."
White Zetsu glanced at Uchiha Madara.
Sometimes Madara Uchiha would have his eyes half-closed, and Madara wouldn't know if the other person was asleep or awake.
"What's his progress in ninjutsu?"
Madara Uchiha opened his eyes again; he had just been lost in his memories.
"I'm learning Water Release techniques this week."
Bai Juedao.
"Based on observation, he is practicing a D-rank water-style ninjutsu, which should be a legacy left by Tobirama Senju."
Water escape?
A mocking smile appeared on Madara Uchiha's lips.
Teaching Qingyu water escape techniques is to harm Qingyu!
In Madara Uchiha's view, Fire Release is naturally more destructive than Water Release.
That cowardly technique must have been influenced by the wicked Senju clan!
Even though Madara Uchiha possessed water-style chakra, he rarely used ninjutsu in that area.
Let's continue to observe Qingyu.
Madara Uchiha spoke.
If Obito was treated as a pawn, Madara actually had some intention of cultivating Kiyoha.
Because Kiyoyu was essentially born on this path, combining the powers of the Uchiha and Senju.
If we were to transplant "Hashira cells" into Qingyu again, to what extent would the compatibility be?
If the "Infinite Tsukuyomi" is completed, he might be able to give Kiyoha, who looks just like his younger brother Izuna, an eternally beautiful dream as compensation.
"Yes, Madara."
White Zetsu nodded.
"What about Obito?"
"We will continue to observe."
Madara Uchiha.
Compared to the simple-minded Obito, Qingyu was much more vigilant.
He sent a White Zetsu disguised as an old woman to be helped by Qingyu, but Qingyu actually said that he was afraid of being framed and that he didn't cause the accident, so why should he help her?
If someone is truly in trouble, they will make sure there are witnesses around before they dare to help; they are very cautious in their actions.
Therefore, Madara Uchiha planned to make two preparations.
Qingyu's cautiousness in leaving room for maneuver in everything shows that he has a filter in his nature, thinking about gains and losses before being moved.
This kind of person is not easily fooled.
But this also made Madara Uchiha feel that Kiyoha was more like Izuna.
……
Soon, another half month passed.
The Ninja Academy held its first monthly exam.
The morning session consisted of a written exam, which covered basic theory, questions about the Will of Fire, and theoretical knowledge of ninja tools.
Qingyu answered all the questions very well. In the part about the Will of Fire, the key point was that the Third Hokage was as majestic as the rising sun, allowing the great tree of Konoha to grow strong. Qingyu wanted to raise his hands and shout out his loyalty.
The afternoon session was the practical part.
On the playground, Umino stood in front of the students with a roster in hand, and behind him, several sparring areas had been marked with white lines.
"We will conduct a practical sparring test this afternoon. Those whose names are called, please step forward and form pairs."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Obito Uchiha jumped out impatiently.
"Kakashi!"
Obito pointed to the conspicuous head of silver hair in the crowd.
"I challenge you, Kakashi!"
Kakashi barely lifted his eyelids, simply shaking his head.
"idiot."
Kakashi could beat Obito with his eyes closed, using only his three basic axe blows.
"What did you say?"
With Rin Nohara still watching, Obito felt a little embarrassed.
"Even if it's a challenge, it's not your turn, Obito."
Kakashi shook his head.
He glanced at Qingyu.
If possible, he would prefer to fight Qingyu.
When Kakashi looked over, Qingyu nodded slightly.
Kakashi hasn't built a strong bond with Obito yet; they're just classmates who bicker at best.
Their relationship only intensified rapidly after the start of the Fourth Shinobi World War.
He possessed the most wondrous power in the ninja world... "Bonds".
"Obito, keep order."
Umino tapped the roster in her hand, her tone serious.
"Only step forward when your name is called; any unauthorized challenges will not be counted in your score."
Obito had no choice but to reluctantly return to the ranks.
If I really get zero, I'm doomed.
Umino glanced down at the roster and read out the names of the first pair of sparring partners.
