Training Must Not Be Slackened, Brother Cares for Sister

Uchiha Kō, having led a group from a nearby mountain, had witnessed the entire battle and couldn't help but marvel at the countless heroes in the world, realizing that one should never underestimate anyone.

All the Kage are motivated by shame and strive to improve, forcibly evolving their Ninjutsu once again. If we were to judge them with the same perspective as ten years ago, we would surely suffer a great loss.

Just like today, Karatachi Yagura's Multiple Water Mirror Technique can copy everyone on the battlefield. In addition to making enemies fight each other, it can also copy its own people to attack the enemies present at the same time.

The match changed from a 1v1 to a 3v1, which was a huge change. If it weren't for Ōnoki's instantaneous Dust Release too overpowered and Deidara's breakthrough at the last minute, they would have had enough to deal with just fighting against Karatachi Yagura!

Lin's ability to extract Human Puppet has increased more than double in both agility and penetrating damage. As Kage Level, he has touched the threshold of Super Kage after controlling the Human Puppet. If this is the case, the Fourth Shinobi World War may bring many variables.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Kō shook his head. So what? Everyone is improving, and so is he. He, Uchiha Kō, has been in this world for over ten years, protecting Konoha as solid as a rock. Even if the Fourth Shinobi World War causes turmoil, no matter how much it stirs up, it won't affect him, a Six Paths level figure.

At this moment, Ōnoki looked at the Mizukage Karatachi Yagura. His initial concern had turned into composure, though he remained cautious in his heart despite his outward smile.

Seeing that the situation was irreversible, Karatachi Yagura sighed after much deliberation, "The Lord Tsuchikage quite shrewd; he scared away an entire force with just a few words."

"You jest. Lord Mizukage is quite impressive. The power of the Multiple Water Mirror Technique is truly awe-inspiring. I'm afraid you're destined to solidify your title as the strongest Mizukage!" Ōnoki chuckled.

Both men were cunning old foxes. At this moment, Lin's departure made Karatachi Yagura realize that he had no chance to keep Ōnoki here. If he forced it, it would probably backfire. Even if he seriously injured Ōnoki, at least half of his side would be killed or wounded, which would not be worth the losses.

Each of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist possesses strength ranging from Jonin to Kage Level. With a little more growth, Kirigakure will one day have eight Kage Level ninjas. Ultimately, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist are less a tool of the Mizukage and more the future pillars of Kirigakure.

Sacrificing four pillars of the village in exchange for the future of Kirigakure is not a worthwhile trade.

Since that's the case, it's better to say something polite and leave as soon as possible. When Ōnoki heard Karatachi Yagura speak, he understood what he meant and naturally went along with it. Who would want to leave unharmed and covered in wounds?

After a brief exchange of compliments between the Tsuchikage Ōnoki and the Mizukage Karatachi Yagura, Karatachi Yagura smiled and said, "Then I shall take my leave."

"Take care, and don't bother seeing me off." Tsuchikage Ōnoki smiled.

Mizukage Karatachi Yagura Kirigakure them. One must always be wary; what if Ōnoki attacked from behind with a Dust Release technique? They would be in serious trouble.

Seeing this, Tsuchikage Ōnoki sighed and turned to leave. He knew the Mizukage's thoughts; although he had no intention of taking action, this showed just how cautious the Mizukage, Karatachi Yagura, was.

With such a Mizukage in Kirigakure, the village is sure to have a bright future. When weak, it humbles itself and waits for the right time. Whenever an opportunity arises, it seizes it, and when it does act, it is swift and decisive.

If it weren't for Lin's concerns, he would probably have died here today. Ōnoki sighed inwardly. If it had been Uchiha Kō came today, he and the others probably wouldn't have even had a chance to resist.

After the two left, Uchiha Kō rushed out and led the rest of the group towards the battlefield. "This is the cruelty of war. Strength is in the hands of a few. Ōnoki and Karatachi Yagura are the most typical examples."

Then, looking at the ninjas who had died without any remains, he said, "Ordinary ninjas, even Jonin, are easily sacrificed on the battlefield. Only by becoming Kage Level ninja can you have a chance to protect yourself, but even that's not absolute; it just increases your chances of survival."

"Ordinary battles won't affect your lives. Some of you are my brothers, some are my disciples and grand-disciples. I hope you remember that strength is the most important thing in the Ninja World, so you must always remember not to be careless in your training."

"Sweat more in peacetime, bleed less in wartime." Uchiha Kō's words struck everyone's hearts like a heavy hammer.

The crowd replied, "Yes!"

Uchiha Kō glanced in the direction of Iwagakure one last time, and then headed towards Konoha.

Konoha remained as bustling as ever. At that moment, Tsunade was buying food with Uchiha Rou on the street Uchiha Rou suddenly asked, "Mommy, where did Daddy go? What happened to him so many days ago?"

Actually, it hadn't been long, less than five days. Tsunade suddenly paused, and said softly, "Rou Rou misses her father?"

"Mmm!" Uchiha Rou nodded. In her eyes, her father was kind, compassionate, and patient, possessing all the qualities of an excellent man. Sometimes she envied her mother for finding such a good partner.

Tsunade smiled and said, "Judging by the time, it should be soon. Today is a day off, so how about we go buy Dad a present?"

Uchiha Rou, "Yes!"

After saying that, Uchiha Rou took Tsunade's hand, and the two walked down the street. Their beautiful appearances attracted a lot of attention. Although most people did not recognize Uchiha Rou, they recognized Tsunade. By observing their ages, they could also deduce Uchiha Rou's identity.

These two women could be considered the most esteemed women in Konoha, or rather, in the entire Ninja World.

Soon

As they passed the bubble tea shop, they smelled the sweet aroma wafting from inside and simultaneously asked, "Mommy/ Rou Rou, would you like some bubble tea?" The two exchanged a glance, then smiled and walked towards the bubble tea shop together.

Whether it was fate or not, Uchiha Itachi was wearing an apron and cat ear hair clips, making milk tea at the counter. His expression was meticulous. If it weren't for his cute attire and super high looks, he might have scared away the customers who came to buy milk tea.

The appearance of Tsunade and Uchiha Rou caught his eye. He was originally here to help a friend with his work, otherwise he wouldn't have come to work here. His friend was short of money, so he worked here. Uchiha Itachi had once offered to lend him money, but he had a very high sense of pride.

If it weren't for his friend's high fever, which led him to ask Uchiha Itachi to cover for him, Uchiha Itachi wouldn't have done this kind of effeminate job. But since he had promised, he had to keep his word.

Only now, upon seeing Tsunade and Uchiha Rou, did he finally smile. It seems this place has pretty good feng shui!

He made two cups of milk tea. Tsunade's was a large, premium-sized cup, while Uchiha Rou's was a more aesthetically pleasing, delicately packaged cup. He then said to the girl beside him, "Izumi, could you please take care of this for a while?" With that, Uchiha Itachi took the two cups of milk tea and left.

"Huh? Itachi-kun." Uchiha Izumi was taken aback, but Uchiha Itachi didn't turn around. Instead, he walked towards the two beauties.

Uchiha Rou's long black hair cascaded down her shoulders. The 30-degree Celsius weather outside made her feel a bit uncomfortable. Seeing that there were still more than twenty people in line ahead of her, her face fell. Why were there so many people? She remembered that this bubble tea shop wasn't crowded before!

Actually, the blame for the crowded bubble tea shop today should be placed on Uchiha Itachi. Whether it was intentional or not, the owner was unusually enthusiastic when Uchiha Itachi arrived, and even brought out a banner that had been prepared in advance.

"Uchiha Clan, the number one genius of the Uchiha Itachi clan, personally made milk tea! Hurry and grab yours!"

So, the news spread like wildfire, and many people lined up to drink it – it was milk tea made by Itachi! You couldn't usually get your hands on it.

Tsunade smiled. "Perhaps it's because the milk tea is delicious? Plus, it's so hot Tenten?"

Uchiha Rou had no choice but to nod. Just then, Uchiha Itachi suddenly appeared, making Uchiha Rou's eyes light up.

At that moment, Uchiha Itachi approached the two of them, carrying two cups of milk tea, one large and one exquisite. Uchiha Rou smiled and said, "Mom, look, isn't that Itachi-nii?"

Uchiha Rou cheered excitedly. Hearing this, Tsunade looked in the direction Uchiha Rou pointing and said with a smile, "Yeah! What's that kid doing here? Working? No, wait a minute! This kid isn't short of money. Could it be that he's experiencing life?"

Uchiha Rou didn't hear Tsunade's nagging, but instead waved to Uchiha Itachi. Uchiha Itachi couldn't help but smile when he saw the little girl's gesture, but with Tsunade beside him, he could only pretend to remain aloof.

"Grandma, Rou Rou, this is milk tea I'm treating you to. I remember your tastes," Uchiha Itachi said calmly.

Tsunade took the large tub of milk tea and immediately smiled. "Thank you, Itachi. By the way, what brings you here to work today?"

Uchiha Itachi smiled. "A friend of mine is sick and asked me to cover his shifts. Otherwise, he'll be very upset if he doesn't get full attendance..." Uchiha Itachi explained the situation to Tsunade patted him on the shoulder after listening. "Itachi did the right thing! He's loyal! And he even respected his friend's dignity!"

Uchiha Itachi scratched his head. "It's all thanks to my master's excellent upbringing when I was little." This round of flattery included Tsunade.

Then Tsunade had Uchiha Rou thank Uchiha Itachi. Uchiha Rou nodded, "Itachi-nii, thank you for treating us to milk tea!"

"Hehe, it's alright, consider it a reward for Xiaorou's hard work at school!" Uchiha Itachi affectionately patted Uchiha Rou's head.

Uchiha Rou blushed, while Tsunade smiled and said, "It's just that your brother cares about you. It's alright, it's alright!"
