Chapter 184: Angry Minato Namikaze

Bang bang bang!

The rain hit the windows with a heavy sound, and lead-colored dark clouds rolled up the sky above Konoha.

The occasional flash of thunder and lightning made people subconsciously stop breathing, and they only breathed a sigh of relief when the muffled thunder rumbled afterward.

Uchiha Shinji stood at the door of the Konoha Ninja School building, looking at the Konoha flag trembling wildly in the wind at the training ground in the distance.

Three students gathered around the flagpole and bent down to avoid the rain and lowered the flag. However, when a boy grabbed the flag that was blown violently by the wind, the flag flew him backwards.

Another boy subconsciously jumped up to hug him, but the weight was not enough and he was blown away with him. He fell into the muddy lawn and became an embarrassed drowned rat.

In the end, the boy pointed at the funny looks of the two and laughed loudly. The two boys who fell into the muddy water looked at each other and saw each other clearly. They were still angry at first and pointed at each other and laughed.

On the other side, students were scurrying around in raincoats after school, looking for their parents to pick them up like headless flies. All kinds of shouts and screams were broken by the heavy rain and disappeared into the mud. It felt like a group of people in the mud. There is no mother tadpole in the water.

Under the eaves at the entrance of the Ninja School, Uchiha Shinji looked at this scene with an expressionless face, exuding an aura of indifference, as if everything in front of him had nothing to do with him, and he was completely separated from the emotional peers around him.

Until most of the students were almost gone, Uchiha Shinji politely and indifferently refused the teacher's suggestion to take him home, standing there quietly as if waiting for something.

"This is the first time in my life that I know that Konoha can have such heavy rain. I wonder how it compares to the Land of Rain written in the textbooks."

Just as he was staring at the rain curtain, a gentle voice came from behind, disrupting the thoughts in his mind.

Uchiha Shinji glanced behind him out of the corner of his eye and saw a blond boy walking up to him.

Uchiha Shinji found that he had some impression of this boy.

Minato Namikaze was in a different class than him at the same time, but their teacher often asked them to learn from Minato Namikaze in the next class during class, praising him as a model among civilian ninjas, with great talent and hard work.

In addition, this good and obedient student has done some unexpected things recently.

Uchiha Shinji's previous impression of him was limited to rumors, but now it seems that he can add another label to him.

——Self-cooked.

"Are you waiting for someone? Still can't go home?"

Namikaze Minato walked to him and squatted down, hiding with him under the eaves of the teaching building, looking at the mirage of rain rising and falling in front of him and asked with a smile.

Uchiha Shinji was sure that he had never met him before, but now he was squatting next to him naturally and talking to him.

This made Shinji, who didn't have any friends in school, feel a little awkward. They were like a dove and a crow standing under the same roof. Although they were both taking shelter from the rain, they were completely different species.

"...Waiting for someone."

Although he didn't want to pay attention to him, Shinji knew very well that if he didn't say anything, this guy would default to thinking that he was an unpicked child, and he would keep pestering him to go home with him.

Therefore, Shinji said two words in an indifferent tone, as if he was rejecting people thousands of miles away.

"Oh, that's it."

Namikaze Minato was also a little surprised by his indifference, but he obviously didn't mind. The bright smile on his face did not change at all: "I remember, your name is Shinji?"

Hearing his name, Shinji looked down at him and frowned.

He didn't understand how this guy recognized him and called him by his name when he had never met him before.

"I saw your practical class score sheet when I was helping the teacher organize things."

Seeing Shinji's confusion, Minato blinked and said with a smile, "Your kunai and shuriken throwing scores are as A+ as mine."

"...I remember you too."

Shinji was silent for a moment, then said in an indifferent tone: "Last week you beat a few students into the infirmary, and then beat away the genin brother they called."

Having said this, he paused, looked up and asked, "Why?"

"Why?" Minato stretched out his hand to catch the rainwater and asked knowingly without raising his head.

"You should be the type of good boy." Shinji frowned, "Aren't you afraid of being scolded by the teacher and given a demerit for doing this?"

"Well, I'm still scared. It's the first time after all." Minato smiled and looked up at him, "But the words they said were too unpleasant, so I couldn't hold it back."

"What are you talking about?" Shenji asked subconsciously.

Minato clapped his wet hands, tilted his head and said with a helpless smile: "Probably similar to monsters, monsters, ugly monsters, go to hell or something like that?"

It sounds a bit harsh, but in Shinji's opinion, these words can only go so far.

After all, some people have used these words to scold him before, and they may still use them now, but he no longer cares.

Moreover, based on Shinji's understanding of the blond boy in front of him, when he heard someone insulting others with these words, his first reaction should be to tell the teacher, and he would not beat the student directly into the infirmary just because of this.

Because they are still children.

With just this reason, any mistakes can be forgiven.

unless……

"Are they scolding someone you know?" Shinji asked.

Minato smiled reluctantly. Although he didn't answer his question, it was obviously certain.

Not just "knowing", that person is also "important".

This slightly changed Shinji's impression of this "little sun".

In his opinion, if a person is very gentle, likes everyone, and is gentle to everyone, it means that he is indifferent to everyone.

It is difficult for gentle and correct people to survive in this world, because this world is neither gentle nor correct.

But now it seems that this "little sun" is not so "correct" and "gentle".

"Phew! It's time to go."

Minato stood up with his thighs supported, looked at Shinji and smiled gently: "Since you are picked up, I won't go with you. See you next time."

Seeing Shinji nod expressionlessly, Minato rushed out with his schoolbag on his head, his figure gradually blurring in his sight.

And on the tree in the distance, a white figure swayed boredly under the cover of the branches and leaves, looked down at the grass under the tree and asked: "Hey, Fei, that human brat can really satisfy Madara-sama." ?"

In the grass, A Fei ignored Bai Jue. Instead, he was squatting on the ground drawing something while holding a branch, while muttering something in his mouth.

"Hey, Fei, what are you doing?" The Bai Jue curiously stretched his head out of the tree trunk and asked.

"Don't disturb me, idiot!" A Fei muttered with some dissatisfaction, "After my observation, the shape and color of human poop are actually slightly different. I am trying to distinguish various kinds of poop. Maybe I can find a way to poop."

As he spoke, he scratched on the ground without raising his head, as if he thought this was some extremely important topic that could shock the ninja world.

"..." Bai Jue scratched his head and said in an envious tone, "It's great, Fei, you can still find something meaningful to do."

Most White Zetsu are at the ordinary level, and their will has been dominated by others since they were born.

It seems that the greatest meaning of birth is that it has no meaning of existence.

But even for Bai Jue, their individual abilities are actually very different.

A special individual Bai Zetsu like A Fei occupies a very small number of special beings among the overall Bai Zetsu.

Therefore, A Fei, an "ideal" Bai Jue, is actually very enviable by many Bai Jue.

Although Master Madara always calls Fei an idiot, it's really good.

"I don't know what Madara-sama is doing now." Bai Jue murmured unsteadily.

"Madara-sama must be pretending to be serious in a dark base alone." A Fei complained, "Human beings are really complicated. They are either plotting one thing or another. As a result, the errands are all done by Bai Zetsu like us who have no complaints. "

The words fell, but there was no echo from his companions. Instead, a cold voice came.

"Oh? Fei, it seems you are very dissatisfied with me."

This familiar voice made A Fei's body freeze immediately, and he raised his head to look at the tree like a machine.

I saw an old-looking Madara Uchiha appearing on the tree. If it weren't for the inability to wick away sweat, A Fei and the White Zetsu would have been covered in cold sweat by now.

"Ahaha, Madara-sama."

A Fei was about to explain something, but Uchiha Madara had no intention of listening to his explanation. He looked at Uchiha Shinji in the distance and said indifferently: "Is he the person you are talking about?"

At this moment, under the watchful eye of Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Shinji, who originally told Minato that he was picked up, saw that no one was around, and walked out of the school in the rain.

Although it is only evening now and it is time to take a rest and go shopping, it is obvious that not many people are willing to go out in today's weather. The heavy rain and the gray and dark sky have cast a layer of gray on everything. The usual flow of people on the street They were all cut off by the dagger-like rain.

The rain splashed on Uchiha Shinji's body and water splashed, and he walked silently to a quiet and deserted dense forest.

After turning his head and looking around to make sure there was no one around, he looked up at the sky, twin magatama appeared in his eyes.

As if he had discovered something, his pupils froze and he formed seals unskillfully.

"Thunder Escape: Lightning Strike Technique!"

boom! !

A burst of white light crashed down from the sky accompanied by thunder. The turbulent white light spread out surrounded by lightning, instantly illuminating half of the surrounding dark rain curtain. Even the heavy rain was shaken away by the impact, forming a regular circular space. There is no water inside.

A crack was left on the ground in front of him, and the pool of rainwater was filled with electric wires, rising into white mist under the high temperature.

Under the cover of the rainy weather, no one noticed the movement here.

Looking at the ninjutsu he finally successfully released, Uchiha Shinji's eyes flashed with joy, and he subconsciously raised his hand to touch his eye sockets.

The only thunder escape ninjutsu left by his father, although he had long felt that he had learned it, this was the first time he had successfully released it.

In the distance, A Fei who was following him immediately became excited when he saw this. He looked up at Madara and said with a smile: "Madara-sama, that's him, Uchiha Shinji. His father is a jounin of the Uchiha clan, and his mother is just a civilian ninja. Both his parents died in the war, but despite his young age, he has already developed double magatama."

Both parents died, and at the age of seven or eight, you got double magatama?

The ninjutsu he used just now also looks familiar.

It must be a lightning-inducing technique created by a certain tribe?

With the powerful insight of the Sharingan, he observed the pattern of lightning on rainy days and used very little chakra to connect with thunder.

There are actually many ninjutsu that use the celestial phenomena and terrain, and they can generally exert power far beyond their own strength.

Uchiha Madara seemed to have thought of something, and a trace of reminiscence flashed in his eyes, but his tone was still cold: "Just this is far from enough."

As the former patriarch of the Uchiha clan, he has seen too many children who opened their Sharingan at the age of five or six because of war and fear from the Warring States period.

In the peak period of the Warring States period, the Uchiha clan had three-digit members with three magatama, each of whom was above the level of Jonin, and most of them could be said to be elites among Jonin.

But it was not enough, far from enough.

He didn't need the three-magatama Sharingan.

He needed a child with the potential to open the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Only the Mangekyō Sharingan could carry his name and walk in the ninja world on his behalf.

Among hundreds of Uchiha clan members who opened the three-magatama Sharingan, only a few of them awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan in the end.

Uchiha Madara knew very well that talent was indeed important to open the Mangekyō Sharingan, but that was only the most basic thing.

Without a father or mother, without relatives, this alone meant that Uchiha Shinji could not become his "agent".

"This is the person who can be found at present and best meets your requirements, Madara-sama." A Fei spread his hands helplessly, but soon laughed and said, "Don't worry, Madara-sama, just continue to watch, I'm sure you will be satisfied."

At the same time, Uchiha Shinji, who was sure that he had learned the "Lightning Release·Lightning Strike Technique", was worried that someone would find out, so he didn't stay any longer.

He returned to the neighborhood, crossed several streets, walked to a dilapidated old house on the second floor, walked up the stairs to the second floor and opened the door.

Click.

Shinsi pushed the door open and entered the room. After a pause, he said softly, "...I'm back."

"Welcome back."

After the words fell, the woman wearing round-framed glasses poked her head out of the kitchen. She was wearing pajamas and a kitchen apron, with pink cotton slippers on her feet and a spatula in her hand.

Feeling the warmth coming towards him, the coldness on Shinsi's face gradually melted away.

On a tree in the distance, seeing this scene, the lazy Uchiha Madara sat up straight.

"Interesting."

Looking at the two people in the room, he squinted his eyes and finally became interested.
