Once the dust settled, Eevee's well-prepared body was revealed.
The Gible, with its ringed eyes showing, was half-buried in the ground and had clearly lost consciousness.
"Goodness, this is the prelude to awakening the Rinnegan!"
Ibrahimovic thought to himself, with a touch of malice.
This Gible is far too weak. It only used chakra to amplify its impact skill, yet it couldn't even withstand a single attack.
Of course, it was also quite satisfied with the power of this chakra-infused version of the impact.
However, it should not be complacent. As a pseudo-legendary, with ample resources and the training of an excellent trainer like Cynthia, Gible's growth will likely be rapid.
"This"
Cynthia and Dr. Mustard were both slightly taken aback by the scene before them.
Clearly, they didn't expect the battle to end so quickly, and that it would end in a crushing defeat for Gible.
"This Eevee is truly extraordinary! It has exceeded my expectations!"
Dr. Mustard's gaze was fixed intently on Ibu.
Both its speed and the impact skill it just used are incredibly powerful.
That look, brimming with research desire, sent a chill down Ibrahimovic's spine.
"Boy!"
It barked and jumped onto Cynthia's shoulder, nuzzling her cheek to express its affection.
At the same time, it thought to itself, "Cynthia's face is so tender o(**)o"
"Buee!" It's you I choose! From now on, you'll be my trainer and my human!
Eevee instinctively communicated with Cynthia in Pokémon.
"Eh?"
Cynthia vaguely understood, and immediately picked up Eevee from her shoulder, held it in front of her, and asked in surprise, "You're willing to become my Pokémon? Even if I lose, you're still willing?"
"Ibrahimovic!" Yes! I'm rooting for you, little rich girl!
Ibrahimovic nodded repeatedly.
"That's great! Ibrahimovic, you're so kind!"
Cynthia happily held Eevee up and spun around in place, then hugged it to her chest and rubbed her cheek against it, overjoyed.
"It seems this little guy really likes you, Cynthia! You should nurture it well! Grandma can tell it has extraordinary potential, and it seems to have some little secrets! Should Grandma investigate it?"
Dr. Mustard walked over with a smile and reached out to pat Eevee's back.
"Buyi!" Are you a devil?
These words immediately infuriated Ibrahimovic.
"Booi...Booi!!!"
It escaped Dr. Mustard's clutches and hid on Cynthia's shoulder, waving its little paws and righteously denouncing Dr. Mustard's evil deeds.
"Al?"
Cynthia looked at her grandmother awkwardly and said, "It seems Eevee doesn't want to! Grandma! Eevee dislikes you!"
"a ha ha ha..."
Dr. Mustard Orchid stiffened slightly, withdrew his hand, and gave an awkward smile: "It seems so! This little guy is a bit sensitive! Then we won't study it anymore!"
Ibrahimovic was somewhat relieved after hearing this.
However, sensing some danger, it climbed directly onto Cynthia's waist, touched a blank Ultra Ball there, and was captured on its own.
Dr. Mustard:
It seems that he was truly disliked, which made Dr. Mustard Blue somewhat disappointed.
As a Pokémon Doctor who loves Pokémon, this was the first time she had encountered such a situation.
It's really just a matter of research and inspection!
As a Pokémon Professor and Cynthia's grandmother, what bad intentions could she possibly have?
"Wow! Eevee actually volunteered to become my Pokémon, Grandma!"
Cynthia was very happy. She pressed the Poké Ball again, released Eevee, and held her in her arms.
It felt like hugging a cute plush toy, it was quite comfortable.
Congratulations, Cynthia!
Dr. Mustard smiled and nodded, then gave Eevee an apologetic look, saying, "I'm sorry, Eevee! I was wrong just now! I promise you, I won't study you without your permission again! Don't be angry anymore, okay?"
"Ibrahimovic!" Okay! I'll magnanimously forgive you this time! There won't be a next time!
Ibu raised its head proudly and let out a cry.
That's basically the gist of it.
"That's great!"
Professor Mustard understood the gist of it, smiled knowingly, and then instructed Cynthia, "The little guy is a bit sensitive! Remember to take good care of him! Also, Gible is injured, are you going to continue to leave it unattended? That's not the behavior of a proper trainer, you know?"
"Oh no! This is terrible!"
Gible, are you alright?
Cynthia frantically tried to put Eevee down to check on Gible, but Eevee simply leaped up and perched on Cynthia's shoulder, watching the show unfold.
In the end, Gible was fine, and Eevee was alright! At most, it suffered a mild concussion.
Dr. Mustard has the medical equipment here, and he was cured quickly.
Goodbye, Grandma!
"Be careful on the road!"
Cynthia bid farewell to Professor Mustard, picked up Eevee, and officially set off.
Chapter 13
Naruto World,
"Uchiha Unsho! The clan leader requests your presence!"
Yunxiao had just returned to the clan's territory after having barbecue with Kurenai and Kakashi when a Jonin from the Uchiha clan found him and said something to him.
"Okay! I understand! Please lead the way!"
Uchiha Yunxiao nodded and immediately followed.
He wasn't surprised at all that Fugaku was in a hurry to find him; it would be strange if he wasn't.
Soon, Yunxiao arrived at Fugaku's house and met Uchiha Fugaku.
"Lord Patriarch!"
Yunxiao gave a slight bow.
"No need to be so polite! Please have a seat!"
Fugaku smiled kindly and gestured for Yunxiao to sit down opposite him.
Mikoto Uchiha walked over, gave each of them a cup of tea, and then stepped away.
"Have some tea!"
Fugaku gestured for him to come, then looked at the composed Yunxiao and asked curiously, "You don't seem surprised at all that I invited you? It seems the Third Hokage told you something! Would you mind telling me?"
"Also, the Third Hokage specifically asked me to go to the Hokage's office before, saying that he valued your talent and was preparing to let you join his Anbu, but I refused! What are your thoughts?"
Facing Fugaku's gaze, Yunxiao calmly picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and replied composedly, "I do know that you summoned me, Clan Chief. As for what the Hokage told me, he said..."
Yunxiao immediately repeated to Fugaku everything that the Third Hokage had told him.
The gist of it is that the third generation said he reprimanded Fugaku for mistreating Unsoo and helped Unsoo secure resources from the clan.
This was indeed the original meaning of the Third Generation, but the Third Generation wanted Yunxiao not to tell anyone else, especially Fugaku.
He never expected Yunxiao to act so unpredictably.
Orphans like him should have suffered exclusion and suppression within their clan, and should they have been holding back their resentment?
After listening, Fugaku's face darkened considerably: "He really is an old fox! His actions are meticulously planned and executed, leaving no room for error! If it weren't for Yunxiao's honesty, I would have been completely manipulated!"
Yunxiao chuckled and said, "That's why I spoke frankly to you, Clan Chief! After all, I'm first and foremost a member of the Uchiha clan, and only then a member of Konoha. The Clan Chief and the clan didn't mistreat me before. The Third Hokage's methods of sowing discord were too low-class! Of course, perhaps that wasn't his original intention?"
Yunxiao's direct statement was not without purpose!
It's only been about ten years since the Uchiha clan massacre, so he needs to prepare early.
The Third Hokage and Danzo's suppression and exclusion of Konoha was a long-term process. He couldn't wait until the very end to take action; that would be too passive and foolish!
Therefore, he wanted to test the key figure—Uchiha Fugaku.
The key to changing the Uchiha clan's situation lies with their leader, Uchiha Fugaku.
In his previous life, Yunxiao had read many Naruto fanfics and seen many stories about transmigrators with the Uchiha clan as the main characters who gradually changed the Uchiha clan's situation.
Perhaps not all of them are suitable for him or for the real Naruto world, but many of them undoubtedly have great reference value.
"No!"
Fugaku looked at Yunxiao with admiration, thought for a moment, and then shook his head firmly: "The Third Hokage did it on purpose! He does value your talent and wants to bring you to his side. Firstly, it would reduce the number of geniuses in our Uchiha clan and give him an additional one; secondly, it would weaken and suppress the Uchiha clan!"
"This is already his usual tactic!"
At this moment, Fugaku thought again of the Uchiha geniuses who had completely sided with the Third Hokage and Danzo in the past years. Compared with Yunxiao, he felt that they were just a bunch of traitors.
Of course, all such traitors are now dead.
"So, what's the reason that the Third Generation suddenly tried to win you over? Would you mind telling me?"
Fugaku then asked a question.
Yunxiao shrugged: "There's nothing I can't say! It must be because of this!"
As he spoke, he immediately activated his Sharingan.
"Sharingan? And with two tomoe?"
Fugaku looked at the two tomoe in each of Yunxiao's eyes with great surprise: "Did you awaken them recently?"
"To be precise, it was during the massacre of the mountain bandits last night!"
Yunxiao nodded and said, "My team leader reported this to the higher-ups, which is why the Third Generation values me so much! As for recruiting me into the Dark Division, it's too early to say. I guess it's mainly to test you, Clan Chief! Besides, they summoned me before and rewarded me with a Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!"
"That's not surprising! That's not surprising at all!"
Fugaku Uchiha suddenly realized, "I remember you were only 10 years old, right? You awakened the Sharingan at the age of ten, and it was already at the two-tomoe level. Your strength was already at the genius level before! Now it's only even greater! It's understandable that the Third Hokage would be tempted!"
"However, the Third Hokage wasn't very generous! He only gave you one Multiple Shadow Clone Technique?"
Fugaku, with a look of disdain, made a sarcastic remark about the Third Hokage, then promised Yunxiao, "Here's what I'll do! I'll later pass on my orders to have the clan grant you access to all ninjutsu below S-rank! You'll also be allowed to choose two S-rank ninjutsu!"
"I hope you cultivate diligently and don't disappoint me! Also, be careful not to be greedy! Remember, you can't bite off more than you can chew!"
Fugaku certainly had a lot of guts; he was willing to spend a fortune.
While Yunxiao's exceptional talent certainly played a part, in his view, Yunxiao's attitude towards the Third Hokage, the village, and the Uchiha clan was the most important factor.
This is a clever little guy.
Although he is not very old, he has a very clear understanding of things.
Unlike those Uchiha geniuses who betrayed us in the past, they've already turned their backs on the wrong side!
Fugaku himself was not a radical person. Unlike those Uchiha with the Hawk brand, he did not believe that the Uchiha were the best in the world and that the Uchiha were supreme.
He agrees with the view that the Uchiha are the Uchiha of Konoha.
But he also hoped that the village would treat the Uchiha clan fairly.
I don't expect you to treat me as one of the two great clans of the village. Just treat me the same as the other ninja clans!
But so far, the village has clearly not done so.
Instead, they suppressed the Uchiha clan in various ways.
