Twins

(At my operations officer's suggestion, I'm setting up a brain storage area here, QAQ.)

When I go dark, there's a chance I'll trigger a second personality whenever I run into people with no branches in their mouths ☜ It has nothing to do with the author himself.

Haters, I'm eating lemons with lemons. You Stop Cloud Flowing Water grandpas are here. Watch it if you want, and get lost if you don't. Do you really think you're that amazing?

You turn into master critics online, then look down and see your pockets are empty. Do you really think that just because I don't call you out, you can start acting all badass?

As of October 21, 2024, this book has 410,000 words. Write that much before you come barking at me.

And you say I don't have anything original? Come on, bro~ Naruto's original story was like this. What plot do you want me to write, astronauts building rockets in space?

Do you really think the protagonist is omnipotent? You're making me laugh. As for those bad reviews, sorry, but I've hung every one of you up in the group archive for future generations to admire.

To put it bluntly, you think I'm easy to bully? Who do you think you are? You can't find anywhere in real life to vent, so you come here to act like a *clown? Hilarious.)

(There shouldn't be anyone from the village here, right~)

"Holy shit~" Watching Teacher Coke's moves, Josuke ate his steamed bun with relish. The bun was his dinner ration tonight.

In order to protect the best ninja world and restore the Han Dynasty, a simple dinner meant nothing to him.

After a dazzling series of moves, Teacher Coke successfully pulled off a one-versus-three comeback. He looked confidently at the stream. "Kitty~"

The chat immediately flooded with greetings.

"√ stone."

"Shit."

"Not even as good as two words."

Teacher Coke did not care in the slightest and continued his moves. "Kana~"

As Josuke watched the stream, his vision suddenly went black, and he lost consciousness...

Land of Fire, Konoha Village

Uchiha Compound

A middle-aged man waited anxiously outside an old house. A woman's screams occasionally rang out from within. The man was Fugaku Uchiha.

Inside was his beloved wife, Mikoto Uchiha. With the help of the clan midwife, Mikoto was giving birth.

The midwife said anxiously, "Madam, push harder! The baby's head is out!"

The midwife's shout made Josuke stir. He wanted to open his eyes, but discovered that he could not open them at all. He wanted to make a sound, but what came out was something like crying.

What the hell is going on? Josuke muttered inwardly, but exhaustion washed over him, and he unconsciously closed his eyes.

Before long, the midwife shouted, "They're born! Twins! Two big, healthy boys!"

Outside, Fugaku could not hide his excitement. He rushed inside, while a small figure also ran in behind him.

The midwife wrapped up the two children. Fugaku looked at the two adorable babies, his eyes filled with fatherly love. "My children..."

He then looked up at his wife, who had borne him three children and shared life's hardships with him, and gently kissed her forehead.

"Mikoto, you've worked hard~"

Mikoto Uchiha's face was pale. The delivery had exhausted all her strength.

She said weakly, "Where are my children?"

Fugaku understood and gently placed the children beside her so she could turn her head and see them.

Fugaku said softly, "This is the older brother, Josuke." Then he pointed at the identical baby beside him. "And this is the younger brother, Sasuke."

Mikoto nodded. "Mm~ Josuke, Sasuke, you must both grow up quickly~"

(Maybe they won't be able to see it...)

Behind them, a small figure gazed tenderly at the two little bundles. "Josuke and Sasuke..."

He secretly vowed that he would protect his two younger brothers with his life...

The birth of the Uchiha clan head's sons was major news throughout Konoha Village. As the Fourth Hokage, Minato found time to visit the two babies shortly after Mikoto gave birth.

"Congratulations, Clan Head Fugaku. Two more handsome little boys have joined your family!" Minato smiled charmingly as he offered his heartfelt congratulations.

Fugaku nodded and looked at the two little ones in the crib, unable to conceal the love in his eyes.

"Minato, let me congratulate you in advance as well. Kushina should be due soon, right? Why aren't you going back to take care of her? You're still here exchanging pleasantries with me. We don't need to be so formal with each other."

Minato gave an awkward smile.

Mikoto teased him from the side.

"When is Kushina giving birth? If it's a girl, our families can arrange a marriage. If it's a boy, let the three of them become good brothers in the future~"

This made Minato even more embarrassed. He could only raise a hand to rub the blond hair at the back of his head. Kana~

He did not know whether it would be a little boy or a little girl either...

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Minato was called away by an Anbu ninja. There were urgent official matters to attend to again.

Watching Minato depart, then looking at his wife in confinement, Josuke and Sasuke in the crib, and Itachi standing nearby, Fugaku had never felt so at ease.

Thinking about it, this was not bad. Itachi would soon grow up into a young man capable of standing on his own, there were the twin babies... and his loving wife.

Naturally, Josuke had no idea what Fugaku was thinking. He had opened his eyes several days earlier.

After the confusion of Where the hell have I been sent? Is this even still my country? he finally figured it out. He had transmigrated into the world of Naruto.

And it seemed he had become part of the Uchiha family. Itachi was his older brother, and Sasuke was still his younger brother. What the hell.

Josuke was in despair. Looking at his parents, he really wanted to say, Being loving is useless. My big brother is going to slaughter you two.

Josuke could not change his parents' future. He had tried. He did not have some overpowered child-prodigy wish-fulfillment system, nor was he at Six Paths level at the age of one, nor did he have an Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan from birth. He had nothing.

Right now, he was just a child who could not even talk. He still did not know whether his big brother would slaughter him too, though probably not.

Whether because he was still a baby or for some other reason, he only remembered the general plot of Naruto at present. He had forgotten many of the details.

Josuke shook his head. Whatever. He would deal with it later, once he had some strength...

Gradually, Josuke's eyelids began to droop, and he fell into a deep sleep again.

Several major events occurred after Josuke was born.

The first was the Nine-Tails Incident.

That damn Uchiha brat Obito released the Nine-Tails while Kushina was giving birth. In the end, Minato and Kushina had no choice but to sacrifice themselves.

They sealed the Nine-Tails inside their newborn child, who would be discriminated against by the villagers from childhood. How ironic.

"I told you long ago, Hiruzen. The Uchiha cannot be allowed to remain!"

After the Fourth Hokage died, the Third once again took up the burden of leading this overwhelmed village.

Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep drag from his pipe. "Danzo, I am the Hokage!"

Danzo Shimura slammed the door as he left and roared, "Hiruzen, you'll regret this!"

Watching Danzo's departing back, Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head deeply.

The second matter was the treatment of the Uchiha clan. During the Nine-Tails Incident, the Uchiha clan's Sharingan had been discovered in the Nine-Tails' eyes.

That was an undeniable fact. Konoha's Anbu could not find the culprit who controlled the Nine-Tails, and even Root, under Danzo's command, had no leads.

But that did not matter. As long as it was the Uchiha clan, that was enough. Under the push of Danzo, the so-called fifth-and-a-half Hokage...

The culprit behind the Fourth Hokage's death and the Nine-Tails Incident unquestionably became every member of the Uchiha clan.

The villagers began to hate the Uchiha again. At the same time, due to certain unavoidable factors, Fugaku was forced to move the Uchiha Compound from inside the village to outside it.

Not only did this fail to ease suspicion, it instead became the strongest proof that the Uchiha clan had something to hide.

Fugaku could do nothing about it. Disharmonious voices also began to emerge within the clan, but Fugaku did not think too much of it.

Perhaps it was merely the clan members' normal grumbling. Once a seed fell into the ground, it would keep growing, taking root and sprouting, until it eventually became a towering tree.

(From September 23, 2024, 23:17:12

I've written 300,000 words already. I truly never expected I'd reach this day. There really were a lot of problems in the early parts.

Whether it was nonsense, immersion-breaking parentheses, or the everyday storytelling sections.

Some of that was writing style, while some of it genuinely was a problem.

But they're not major problems, and I don't want to revise them. I suggest that everyone simply skip the chapters they dislike. Thank you.

I hope everyone will continue supporting me. As for Tomato's ridiculous rating system, I don't even want to talk about it. When the ratings first came out, mine went from 5.4 to 7.0, then 6.8 and 6.9, and it has been stuck there ever since.

I don't know why. Anyone who looks at my ratings can see the reading time of the five-star reviews and the reading time of the low-score reviews.

Those who understand, don't keep saying things like, "No wonder the rating is so low~"

You think you understand so much?

Actually, you're the one who understands the least. You're the joker. You can't even figure out how Tomato's rating mechanism works, yet you still pretend to know it all.

Oh, right.

Thank you all for reading this shabby work.)
