It also nurtured boss units such as Obito Uchiha and Kabuto Yakushi for the Fourth Shinobi World War.
Yellow Flash, the AB combination, Scorch Release: Pakura, Copy Ninja Kakashi... many powerful figures also made their names in this great battle.
Ironically, the most famous Sharingan ninja in the Third Shinobi World War was actually a foreigner named Kakashi.
It seems that towards the end of the war, Shisui had also grown up, that kid...
Hopefully, his upbringing can change his overly maternal nature.
Kakashi, who had skipped class all day, leaned against the door. When he saw Uchiha Kagami walking over, he straightened up.
"Jing, my father wants to see you, please!" he said, bowing ninety degrees in greeting.
Even when Kakashi was beaten badly by Uchiha Kagami before, he had never been this humble.
The medicinal bath can be scheduled after Uchiha Kagami's training; there's enough time.
The few lamps provided little light, making the inner hall somewhat dim.
Uchiha Kagami walked in alone and saw the famous White Fang of Konoha.
His once tall and robust body now looks like a skeleton supporting flesh.
His hair was white and withered, and his eyes had almost no light.
At around thirty years old, the prime of a ninja's life, Hatake Sakumo exuded an aura of decay.
"It's Kagami-kun, isn't it? Kakashi often mentions you." His voice was hoarse, as if it was difficult for him to even finish a sentence.
"Hello, Jonin Hatake."
Uchiha Kagami didn't like to start conversations, so he waited for Hatake Sakumo to speak.
"Kakashi conveyed your words to me, Kagami-kun. Your Sharingan has more insight than any Uchiha I have ever seen."
"I really can't figure it out. Could I borrow your wisdom...?"
"Tell me... what's the right thing to do."
Uchiha Kagami frowned slightly; he wasn't cut out for psychological counseling work either.
Let's get straight to the point.
"Jonin Hatake, do you know who leaked the details of this mission?"
"...I think I guessed it."
"It should be Lord Danzo, who was assisted by the Hokage."
"Danzo did something that the Hokage didn't stop. That's the situation," Uchiha Kagami stated directly, presenting the facts.
"You wanted to commit suicide because your idealized image of the third generation was shattered, right?"
"Filter... what does that mean?"
"It means you can't see his true appearance. From your perspective, the third generation has always been a perfect and kind elder."
“Jingjun’s analogy is very apt…”
"So... why is the Third Hokage unwilling to help me..."
"How can he help you? The news is already out in the open. Is he going to tell you that your comrades are more important than the mission?"
"Then what about the missions of the daimyo and nobles? Who will still trust Konoha?"
"You're saying the mission is more important than your comrades?"
"Then what about his long-held principles of the Will of Fire and cherishing his comrades? What do the villagers think of him?"
"This is an unsolvable problem."
Sakumo Hatake remained silent.
Uchiha Kagami slowly said, "The Third Hokage was a human being, and all humans have selfish desires. He would never overturn his own principles for your sake."
"Moreover, your incident is actually a good thing for the third generation of the family. After all, someone with a tainted reputation is not qualified to compete for the fourth generation."
"I never thought about becoming the Fourth Hokage!" Sakumo Hatake's voice rose a few decibels.
"Whether you want to or not is not important; what's important is that you have the ability."
Uchiha Kagami's cold gaze shattered Hatake Sakumo's last shred of illusion.
"From their perspective, there's nothing wrong with doing this. I doubt even they could have imagined that you would have suicidal thoughts because of it."
"They just wanted a tainted knife, not an object that could become 'jade'."
"In my opinion, after this battle, they will turn you from the light to the dark and use you for some shady things."
"What...what will they think I will do..."
Uchiha Kagami pointed at himself and laughed, "Isn't it easy to think of a way? Use you to deal with the Uchiha."
“We, the Uchiha, are the biggest destabilizing factor in their eyes.”
“Mirror-kun, we’re all from the same village, why…”
"There's no reason why; as long as people gather together, there will inevitably be conflict."
"Only by subduing their fellow human beings can people experience the pleasure of being superior."
"This is the poison called power."
"...Despite being so much older than you, I still don't see things nearly as clearly as you do..."
"That's normal, you haven't received an education."
"I also spent a few years at the ninja academy..."
"We're not talking about the same thing." Uchiha Kagami waved his hand impatiently. He had said too many lines today, which didn't fit the aloof Uchiha persona.
"I won't offer any advice or comfort. If you really can't bear it, suicide is indeed a good way to escape."
"Anyway, Kakashi's mother died long ago, so it doesn't matter if his father dies too."
Of all the things Uchiha Kagami said, it was his last sentence that played a decisive role.
Can Kakashi, who isn't even a ninja yet, really adapt to life without a father...?
Sakumo Hatake is a war orphan who has been without parents since he can remember, so it is hard for him to imagine the pain of losing his parents.
If Kakashi were already a ninja, he could comfort himself and believe that Kakashi could endure it...
He had not eaten for several days. With difficulty, he moved his body and performed the dogeza (a form of prostration) in front of the seated Uchiha Kagami.
"Please tell me what I should do."
Sakumo Hatake is a knife; once you let him think for himself, he can easily end up in a dead end.
He still prefers to find someone he trusts and follow their instructions.
Uchiha Kagami's lips curled up slightly.
"It's very simple. No matter what decision you make, even if it's wrong, you have to stick to it."
"Go beat up all the guys who say you're wrong and tell them that your comrades are more important than the mission!"
"If you're not convinced, beat you until you are. You can break all your limbs. If you're still angry, you can find one or two to kill."
"At most you'll serve a few years in prison. Given your achievements, you won't be sentenced to death."
“I understand…” Hatake Sakumo pondered for a moment, then looked up at Uchiha Kagami.
“Mirror-kun, it seems you’ve already chosen which side to stand on, the Uchiha clan or the village.”
Uchiha Kagami shook his head.
"It's not about which side I choose."
"It's not about which side chooses me, but which side will be the winner."
Chapter 9, Stop, Danzo.
"A seven-year-old with three tomoe... how long are you going to let this kid get away with it?!"
Hokage's office.
The four highest-ranking figures in Konoha's power have gathered.
Led by Hiruzen Sarutobi, the group also included Danzo Shimura, the Hokage, two high-ranking advisors, Homura Mitokado, and Koharu Utatane.
“That child is studying normally at the ninja academy.” Hiruzen Sarutobi said in a deep voice, “Danzo, I told you, don’t interfere in the affairs of the ninja academy.”
"Heh." With a sinister laugh, Shimura Danzo said coldly, "Have you forgotten what this means?"
"Have you forgotten those eyes?!"
“Kaleidoscope…” Koharu Utatane murmured, turning her gaze to Hiruzen Sarutobi: “The talent that Kagami Uchiha has shown could very well awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan if he is stimulated.”
"That ability... is too uncontrollable!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep drag on his cigarette, exhaled the smoke, and said with a serious expression, "I have a plan."
"What plans do you have! You should just do as I say and hand him over to me for training."
"I am confident that he will be completely on our side!"
"Hiruzen..." Koharu and Utatane were clearly tempted.
They lived through the era of Madara Uchiha, and this was the only Kaleidoscope they knew.
Subconsciously, I raised the bar for kaleidoscopes, imagining what it would be like to have a pair of controllable kaleidoscopes...
A seven-year-old with three tomoe is even more exaggerated than the recorded Madara Uchiha. If he couldn't have the Mangekyou Sharingan, even they wouldn't believe it.
He hadn't intended to say it, but seeing that his old friends all seemed to have that kind of feeling, Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed and said:
“I’ve already called Jiraiya back. Uchiha Kagami, I’ll arrange for him to follow Jiraiya.”
“Jiraiya…” Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu exchanged a glance and nodded.
Jiraiya was the best candidate for the Fourth Hokage in their eyes, and they felt at ease entrusting the task to him.
But Danzo was not at ease!
"How can we let that guy who ignores the village rules and runs around like that bring the Uchiha clan with him!"
He glanced at him and said calmly, "He trained Minato."
The two, Mitokado and Homura, who had initially hesitated, were completely relieved upon hearing this.
Minato Namikaze was the perfect candidate for the Fifth Hokage in their eyes.
"That's because Minato Namikaze is excellent, not because your disciple taught him well!" Danzo made a last-ditch effort.
"If all else fails, I'll teach you myself. I've trained the Three Ninjas, so there shouldn't be any problem, right?"
"You're raising a tiger to your own detriment! That brat will definitely cause enormous damage to the village; I can see the intense darkness he harbors!"
"I won't regret it, Danzo," Hiruzen Sarutobi said resolutely.
"That child did nothing wrong. I will definitely train him to be an excellent ninja who loves his comrades."
"As for you... don't think I don't know what you're doing. As for Shuo Mao's affairs, you should stop now."
Even in its twilight years, a fierce tiger still retains its power.
Faced with Hiruzen Sarutobi's increasingly cold gaze, Danzo Shimura said nothing, but the door to the Hokage's office was damaged.
"Honestly, at such an old age, he still can't learn to close the door gently."
Uchiha clan.
Grandma said that someone had come to visit as soon as I came out of the medicinal bath and washed myself clean.
"Jing-kun, I apologize for disturbing you."
"Clan Chief, please come in." Uchiha Kagami gave a formulaic invitation. He was a radical and wouldn't be very respectful to Fugaku, who was a radical.
Obito and Itachi were the ones who massacred the clan, but Fugaku was the one who made things this way.
Was it due to the circumstances, not the fault of any individual?
That's true, but as the head of the Uchiha clan, failing to change anything is itself a mistake.
"No, I'm here to deliver an invitation." Fugaku's dead face rarely showed a smile as he handed over an invitation.
