If the Hokage Won't Make Room for the Uchiha, Then We'll Blow Up the Academy

The Ninja Academy training ground, also known as the Ninja Academy exercise ground, is an open area with dozens of wooden stakes standing there.

These wooden stakes were specially made for the Ninja Academy students to practice taijutsu, ninjutsu, and Ninja Tool training, such as Shuriken throwing.

Sarutobi Hiruzen Roy's back. The old man and the young boy leaned against the lush, green Gotoh tree behind them, its branches laden with tender leaves. In the distance, they watched as one after another, Shinobu, their names called by Yoshioka Yu, stepped forward to unleash their "Fireball Technique."

Speaking of Fugaku, speaking of the Uchiha... even Roy, who was an "outsider" back then, now as the eldest son of Uchiha Fugaku and given the title of "Young Clan Head," has to admit that the stereotypes about the "Uchiha" described by Sarutobi Hiruzen, such as "rigid," "tense," and "cold," are not unfounded.

The inherent evil is the defining characteristic of the Uchiha, based on their own bloodline limit. The darker, more powerful, more extreme, and more perverse they are... This is an interpretation of "only through distortion can one become stronger."

Only through "strong stimulation" can one open their eyes... "Transplanting" the eyes of a close relative can unlock a "Mangekyō"... This is the true "Indra," the true "Yin Release."

Just as "light" and "shadow" are opposing yet contradictory yet unified, so too are "yang" and "yin".

"I don't know about other Uchiha, but for me," the Sun-Earring Boy said, offering no comment on Sarutobi Hiruzen's assessment of his father, but instead smiling at the old man, "Though I live in the shadows, my heart has always been drawn to the light."

Sarutobi Hiruzen paused, his hand gently stroking the Sun-Earring Boy's back. His eyes, hidden beneath his hat, widened slightly in surprise. Looking at the Sun-Earring Boy again, he slowly shook his head. "These aren't words someone your age should be saying. Who taught you that?"

"You are." Roy raised his chin slightly and gestured towards the "slogans" engraved on the school walls.

Sarutobi Hiruzen taken aback for a moment, then remembered that in order to guide the students toward the "Will of Fire" and increase the Shinobu ' sense of belonging to Konoha... he had personally drafted a series of "motivational" slogans, instructing the school to engrave them and repaint them every school year to prevent them from blurring and peeling off... When he came to his senses again, he immediately met a pair of narrow eyes.

"Teacher Yoshioka greatly admires the Hokage," Roy said with a smile. "He always says that the Third Hokage is the Sun-Earring Boy of all time." He paused, tilting his head innocently to look at Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Is that true?"

"Cough... cough..." Sarutobi Hiruzen, clenched his fist and coughed twice, saying, "Every Hokage has their strengths and weaknesses, it's... not easy to compare..."

Hmm... that's true... when it comes to shamelessness, you dare to say you're second to none, even Hashirama and Tobirama wouldn't dare to say they're first.

"Fire Release: Fireball Jutsu!"

"Pfft~" A fireball, not much bigger than a fist, veered off course and was extinguished by a gust of wind before it could even hit the wooden stake.

Another Shinobu glanced over furtively, then sheepishly went back down.

Yoshioka Yu shook his head and continued, "Yano!"

Shinobu named Yano stepped forward, glancing nervously at Sarutobi Hiruzen. Encouraged by Sarutobi Hiruzen's smile, the Sun-Earring Boy haltingly began forming hand seals. He made a mistake at first, but finally succeeded on the second attempt. However, his attempt was less successful than the previous Shinobu's; the fireball only condensed in his throat before extinguishing, leaving him awkwardly spitting out a plume of black smoke...

"Takuya... Kawasaki... Yuna...

One after another... As Yoshioka Yu called out names, he unleashed the "Fireball Technique." Occasionally, Shinobu would shine, condensing a fireball that struck a wooden stake, leaving a scorch mark on the spot. These were the same ninjas who had been eagerly anticipating their challenge.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Roy, an old man and a young boy, watched quietly when suddenly the old man asked, "Child, do you like Konoha?"

A gust of wind blew, causing the branches and leaves of the Gotoh behind him to sway. The sun was about to climb high in the sky, casting dappled sunlight through the leaves onto Roy. Lost in thought, the Sun-Earring Boy recalled his past: whether it was his previous life as a salaryman on Earth, or his rebirth as a Hunter, the eldest son of the Zoldyck family, growing up on Kukuroo Mountain... or awakening the [Gate of Cognition] and transmigrating to Demon Slayer Kamado Eiichiro, active in the world of Demon and Demon Slayer... and now, as a member of the Uchiha, raised by Mikoto and Fugaku, and later by his younger brother Itachi... Roy stretched out his right hand, catching a dappled patch of sunlight, feeling the warmth and vitality of the sun swirling around his fingertips...

He said gently yet firmly, "Of course."

I like any place where the sun shines.

"Hehehe..." Sarutobi Hiruzen winked at the Sun-Earring Boy: "Luckily you were born in Konoha, not the Land of Water."

The Land of Water, one of the Five Great Nations, is shrouded in perpetual fog, so thick that one cannot see their hand in front of their face, let alone witness a ray of sunlight... Just thinking about living in such a dreadful place, Roy could easily understand why Kirigakure Hidden Mist Village) implemented the "Blood Mist Policy," sealing off villages, persecuting those with special abilities, and systematically massacring Ninja clans possessing powerful [Bloodline Limits] such as "Ice Release" and "Lava Release"... Ultimately, it was the environment that shaped everything...

Living in a dark place without sunlight for a long time will inevitably breed psychological distortion and abnormality.

"I also enjoy the sunshine," Sarutobi Hiruzen mimicked Roy, stretching out his right hand to pick up a patch of sunlight, letting it dance between his fingertips, and said in a deep voice, "I've thought more than once that after I retire, I'll carry a small stool, sit by the door, bask in the sun every day, and watch you vibrant Shinobu come and go, growing up batch after batch. That wouldn't be a bad thing."

"Like fire, ever-burning?"

"Yes, like fire, it never dies."

"Bang~" Not far away, a Shinobu named "Arima" finally formed hand seals, opened his mouth and spat out a fireball the size of a human head, which hit the wooden stake and left a shallow pit the size of a bowl on it.

It was a child with a head of hair that stood straight up like a hedgehog... He clenched his right fist and excitedly shouted, "Ooh!"

Looking back, the old man's first glance was at Sarutobi Hiruzen. He nodded approvingly, then turned to the Sun-Earring Boy beside him and said, "Konoha, like fire, will surely continue forever... Jin."

Sarutobi Hiruzen right hand twitched slightly, letting the patch of light slip through his fingers. He then raised it again, placing it on Roy's shoulder, and looked at him earnestly, asking, "Are you willing to protect Konoha for this?"

Roy raised his head. His small figure barely reached Sarutobi Hiruzen's shoulder. Undeterred, he met Sarutobi Hiruzen and looked at him with equal seriousness, asking, "Does the Hokage's Konoha include the Uchiha?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen met the Sun-Earring Boy's clear, bright eyes, he hesitated for a moment.

He thought of Danzo... Every single Uchiha should be killed!

I remembered my teacher, Tobirama... "The Uchiha are a clan born evil!"

He thought of Koharu Utatane... "Hiruzen, we absolutely cannot let the Uchiha with the Sharingan get close to Kushina. If they were to control the Nine-Tails, it would be Calamity for the village."

"I'm reminded of the Mito's flames... We must be wary of the Uchiha; we absolutely cannot allow them to grow strong and threaten the Hokage's position."

Just then, Yoshioka Yu raised his voice and shouted in their direction, "Your turn, Uchiha Jin!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen snapped back to reality... the Sun-Earring Boy, wearing the trench coat bearing the Uchiha clan crest—a coat made by his mother Mikoto —brushed past him, his back not large, yet bathed in the blazing sun. His steps were light, yet resolute, and without turning back, he said, "So that's how it is..."

"The Hokage's fire is just fire; your fire isn't hot enough."

"It can't protect the Uchiha, nor can it safeguard the ninja world."

"Tap... tap..." Footsteps sounded!

The wind stirred, lifting the Sun-Earring Boy's clothes, and [he] unleashed a torrent of energy that ignited!

Once the Aura Nodes open, all the Nen Qi transforms into [True Meaning of Scorching Heat]!

"Whoosh!" Two clusters of flames enveloped Roy from below!

He walked step by step, treading on the "Lotus of Flame," leaving a trail of scorched marks along the way.

Yoshioka Yu... Yano... Takuya... Arima's expressions shifted, their faces changing simultaneously. Their eyes, filled with a variety of emotions—triumphant, disappointed, or embarrassed—reflected the Sun-Earring Boy's face, and instinctively, they moved aside to make way for him.

Then, I saw...

At that moment, Roy stopped in his tracks. From a distance of several hundred meters—twice as far as the test—he formed hand seals and casually uttered, "Fire Release: Fireball Jutsu!"

"Whoosh~" He opened his mouth and lightly exhaled...

A crimson light, like a Great Sun, burst from his throat, tearing through the darkness and heralding dawn. It burst forth suddenly, then swelled... swelled... and swelled even more!

Until it swelled to the size of a classroom, and even... with a final burst of expansion in the wind, it swelled to half the schoolyard, casting a shadow under the blazing sun, completely enveloping all the teachers and students, including Yoshioka Yu!

With a deafening roar, another strike shot towards the distant wooden stake!

In an instant... it transformed into a fire dragon and suddenly burst forth, baring its fangs and claws, devouring dozens of wooden stakes, along with the school wall behind them bearing the "motivational slogan"!

Finally, it transformed into a towering flame, adding a touch of magnificent red to the bright blue sky!

The Sarutobi Hiruzen Hokage Hat, symbolizing the highest authority in Konoha, was blown off by the aftershock, rolled off, and landed on the ground with a "thud"!

Jing is the name of today's Ninja Academy.

"Thump... thump... thump..." The terrified Ninja Academy students collapsed to the ground one after another.

"Gulp~" Yoshioka Yu swallowed hard.

As the flames subsided... a fan-shaped scorch mark leading out of the school brutally and violently came into everyone's view!

The Sun-Earring Boy let out a soft breath, then slowly turned around, glancing indifferently at the lost-in-thought -Sarutobi Hiruzen across the crowd of heads filled with shock and bewilderment...

His body exploded with a "bang"... vanishing into nothingness.

"Clone... it's just a Clone..."

Beneath the Gotoh tree, Sarutobi Hiruzen... fell silent.

He stood silently in the ravaged training ground with a group of teachers and Shinobu, whom he regarded as the future of Konoha, their faces... illuminated by the remaining firelight.

He was stunned for a long time...

"Father, you'll probably have to work overtime."

Uchiha Clan's headquarters.

It's located in the small courtyard belonging to Uchiha Fugaku, adjacent to the Konoha commercial district.

As Roy sensed his Clone's energy dwindling and dissipating into the wind, he lay side by side with Fugaku and Itachi on the corridor, turning his head to speak to the man.

Uchiha Fugaku had just stayed up all night and was planning to take advantage of the beautiful sunshine to enjoy a short rest with his son. Upon hearing this, a bad feeling arose in his heart. He opened his eyes and looked at Roy, saying, "What did you do?"

"It's nothing... I just accidentally made a hole in the school."

Uchiha Fugaku:

Itachi:

My sleepiness vanished instantly, and I got up again, and sure enough...

A figure wearing a cat-face mask, Anbu their features, suddenly appeared from the courtyard.

"Lord Fugaku, the Hokage summons you!"

The Anbu, carrying a long sword on his back and a Kunai at his waist, gave Roy a deep look.

His gaze was immediately blocked by Fugaku, who straightened up. "Go back and report to the Hokage that I... I'm going now."

"Yes." The Anbu withdrew his gaze, leaped onto the wall, and disappeared.

Fugaku glared at his son and said, "Hurry up and write down your so-called [Limb Regeneration Jutsu]!"

Roy lazily rolled over. "Itachi, I said you write it."

Fugaku glared at him. "You think you have a lot of hands? Write it yourself!"

Roy:

"All right."

Itachi, who was barely suppressing a laugh, stood up and pinched himself. He followed Fugaku to the study, and after a moment, he wrote down the [Regenerated Arms] manual and handed it to Fugaku to take away.

"Squeak~" The door opened... Uchiha Mikoto, wearing an apron, had just finished preparing lunch. She called out to Uchiha Fugaku, who was just putting on his shoes and about to leave, "Anada (husband), lunch is ready. Eat before you go."

"I'm not eating anymore, I'm too angry!" Fugaku snorted and stormed out the door without looking back... leaving only Itachi and Mikoto, who were peeking through the door, to exchange a glance and stare at each other in bewilderment.

"Itachi, what did your brother do to upset your dad again?"

"Nii-san... blow up the school!" Itachi said obediently.

Mikoto: ".

Through the half-open study door, he glared at Roy, who was lounging lazily behind his desk, and said helplessly, "Eat first."

She turned and went into the kitchen, then came out with a plate of Katsudon served with miso soup made from fresh Endive, completely forgetting about her son blowing up the school.

Of all things, eating is the most important...

Root.

Danzo has not yet been removed from his position as "Hokage Assistant" due to the future annihilation of the Uchiha clan.

He hid in the dark basement and meticulously replicated the layout of the Hokage 'Hokage office, creating a one-to-one replica.

He was sitting behind a desk that was almost identical to Sarutobi Hiruzen's enormous desk, eating a light meal.

At that moment, the One-Eye man twitched and heard three knocks on the door... knock... knock...

He said calmly, "Come in!"

"Squeak~" The door opened, and a Ninja wearing a mask and completely covered from head to toe in a black robe walked in.

He carried a thin sword wrapped in bandages on his back, and as soon as he stepped into the office, he bowed to Danzo.

"Take the root,"

"Speak, what is it?"

"Reporting to Danzo, the school... has been bombed!"

"Clang!" The chopsticks fell onto the table, then rolled onto the floor with a thud.

Danzo Shimura paused for a moment, glanced at Aburame Torune, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Who did this?!"

"Uchiha Jin, son of Uchiha Fugaku!"

Danzo: "6
