Chapter 756: Life Ninjutsu

Although the Uchiha family moved to the edge of the village due to the Nine-Tails Rebellion, it was much quieter here.

"...Don't tell others about being the clan leader."

After a little hesitation, Uchiha Itachi reminded him.

It's okay to say that he wants to be the Hokage. After all, many ninjas aim to be the Hokage, but saying that he wants to be the Uchiha clan leader in front of him, the son of the Uchiha clan leader...isn't this really a rebellion?

"What else?"

Looking up at him, the girl looked puzzled.

"I'm not an idiot. I can only say this in front of friends. You can't spread what I said everywhere, right?"

"Of course not...but you shouldn't say this."

Slightly uncomfortable, Uchiha Itachi looked away.

"Don't forget, my father..."

"I know your father is the clan leader, but so what?"

Blinking, the girl looked up at him.

"A ninja who doesn't want to be a Hokage is not a good ninja. Similarly, an Uchiha who doesn't want to be the clan leader is not a good Uchiha. Do you think I'm right?"

Uchiha Itachi: "..."

... He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put it into words.

"Okay, okay, you continue training, I'll lie down for a while... You are really a bit rigid."

Rolling her eyes, Mu Qingzhi lay down on the lawn again.

"Remember to wake me up when it's almost noon."

The reason why she kept her will clear when she trained to the limit alone before was mainly because it was easy to encounter unknown dangers when she fell asleep alone in the forest. Now that Uchiha Itachi was by her side, she naturally didn't need to endure it.

Through the past few days of getting along, Mu Qingzhi found that Uchiha Itachi was quite polite when he was young, but the mental problems still existed. But as long as the cause was found, she was sure to cure him.

- In a sense, she is an expert in mental health.

Because she was already very tired, Mu Qingzhi fell asleep on the lawn not long after relaxing, so she didn't notice that after she fell asleep, Uchiha Itachi looked at her for a long time.

"Are you sure it's okay?"

Looking at the girl in front of him standing in the river with her trouser legs rolled up and her sleeves rolled up, Uchiha Itachi had a subtle look on his face.

"I think if you want to catch fish, you should still..."

"Shh! Keep your voice down."

Before he finished speaking, the girl looked up and made a silencing gesture towards him with some dissatisfaction.

"If you scare my lunch away, I'll never let you go!!"

Uchiha Itachi: "………"

Considering the other party's financial problems, he actually deliberately prepared a little more food for his lunch box, so that his mother thought that his appetite had increased recently and planned to change him to a larger lunch box.

But he didn't expect that except for the first time, the other party just ate those dry and cold rice balls for the next few days. Today, he originally planned to directly tell the two of them about exchanging lunches, but who would have thought that the other party would take him to the river to catch fish as soon as he woke up...

Since he could remember, he had been doing various training day after day under the guidance of his father, and he had no free time to play. In his opinion, running to the river to catch fish was definitely not doing his job properly. Once his father knew about it, he would be locked up for a few days at least.

In fact, the most rational thing for him to do now should be to leave here and return to the training ground, but he didn't know why he couldn't take his eyes off the girl standing in the middle of the river.

And just as he was stunned, a half-meter-long fish was suddenly thrown in front of him, and water splashed on his face.

"Okay, stop looking so serious. If you really have nothing to do, hurry up and help."

When he came to his senses, the girl who came back from the river was standing in front of him with her hands on her hips.

"I'm going to collect firewood now. You build a grill here and take care of the fish... By the way, can you kill fish?"

Looking at the big fish that was still jumping on the ground, after a short silence, Uchiha Itachi silently took out a polished kunai from his ninja tool bag.

Although he is only six years old now, he has already been on the battlefield, and his hands are even stained with blood. It's just a fish, so it's reasonable to think...

"...Is this the fish you killed?"

After staring at the big fish that was cut into pieces and died inhumanely on the ground in front of him for a while, Mu Qingzhi looked up at Uchiha Itachi in front of him.

It was just killing a fish, but the other party was in a mess, and his clothes were stained with blood. But the big fish to be processed was dead, but its internal organs and scales were still intact... She seriously suspected that the other party did it on purpose.

"... Well, the fish is definitely dead."

Uchiha Itachi nodded, looking away with a guilty conscience.

Mu Qingzhi: "..."

"Forget it, I wouldn't have counted on you, a young master..."

She sighed helplessly, covering her forehead. After finding a dry place by the river to put the collected firewood, Mu Qingzhi rolled up her trouser legs and sleeves and walked into the river.

Although this place is close to the edge of the village, this large area belongs to the Uchiha family. Those Uchiha people will not be idle and go to the wild position, so the fish here is still quite abundant.

In a few minutes, Mu Qingzhi fished out two big fish from the river again. After using kunai to simply deal with the two big fish by the river, she returned to Uchiha Itachi with a fish in each hand.

After skillfully stringing and tying the two fish with a wooden stick, Mu Qingzhi built a fire with the wood she had just picked up, and then casually snapped her fingers to light the fire.

But just when she was about to sit down and grill the fish, Uchiha Itachi's shocked voice came from the side.

"That flame just now... what kind of ninjutsu was that?"

As a genius of the Uchiha family, Uchiha Itachi asked himself that he had seen too many ninjutsu, but he had never seen any ninjutsu like the one just now.

"Uh... Fire Style Great Fireball Technique, can't you see it?"

Looking up at the other party, Mu Qingzhi looked innocent.

Uchiha Itachi: "..."

...He suddenly felt that his IQ was despised.

"Okay, okay, that's a little improvement I made to the 'Great Fireball Technique'. It's not very lethal, but it's simple."

Under the silent gaze of Uchiha Itachi, Mu Qingzhi raised his hands helplessly in surrender.

"That's my own life ninjutsu, the Fire Style Lighter Technique. What, do you want to learn it?"

The other party is fine in other aspects, but this one is not so good. He always likes to get stuck in a dead end. He can go to that point later, most of which is due to this kind of paranoia.

"Life... Ninjutsu?"

"Yes, in daily life, every move is practice."

While putting the cleaned big fish on the fire, Mu Qingzhi raised a finger in front of him seriously.

"Also, why do you think I was able to catch the fish so quickly just now? Because that is also a daily ninjutsu. I named it the Water Style Fish Catching Technique. It is very convenient to use."

Uchiha Itachi: "…"
