Chapter 357 Fulfillment
Time flies, the years are like a shuttle.

In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.

It was the beginning of July.

This afternoon.

Somewhere in the woods.

There was a sound of fighting.

Looking in the direction of the sound, I saw two figures intertwined together, one of them was Qingming and the other was Uchiha Tiehuo.

Qingming held a long sword in his hand and looked like a ghost, appearing in front, behind, and around Uchiha Tiehuo from time to time.

Uchiha Tetsuka pushed the three-magatama Sharingan to its limit, following Qingming's every move with all his strength, and constantly swinging the kunai in his hand to block.

Ding Ding Dang Dang~
The long sword and kunai collided, making a series of crisp sounds of metal clashing.

However, if you defend for too long, you will lose. Uchiha Tiehuo's passive defense did not last long.

When the battle lasted about five minutes, Qing Ming seized the opportunity, used the 'Instant Sword Technique' to adjust the direction, and used the 'Illusion Sword Technique' to affect the senses.

Then, he stabbed a knife into his throat.

Feeling the sharp breath coming from the tip of the knife, Uchiha Tiehuo quickly stopped and froze in place, not daring to move.

Seeing this, Qingming turned his wrist and retracted the long sword.

In front, Uchiha Tiehuo finally moved. He put down the kunai in his hand, sighed softly, and said: "Hey! Qingming, how did you train? I haven't slacked off during this period of time. Why do I feel that the gap between us is getting bigger and bigger?"

Qing Ming heard this and smiled without saying anything. What could he say? Could he say: Brother, don’t make things difficult for yourself, I’m cheating!
Although this is true, he can't say it.

What's more, he did not gain it for nothing. Every increase in proficiency on the panel was the result of his hard work.

In this case, how can it be said to be cheating?

The panel plays a tiny role at most.

Of course, he didn't need to explain anything. After dealing with the other party for such a long time, Qingming knew that he was just complaining and was not really trying to spy on his secrets.

Otherwise, he would have sent the other person to the Pure Land long ago.

For him, the panel is the second most important secret after time travel, and he will not let go of anyone who dares to spy on it.

Just as he was thinking this, Uchiha Tiehuo seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly came closer and said mysteriously: "Qingming, have you heard something?"

"what's up?"

Qing Ming replied calmly.

"It's about what happened some time ago, when Kakashi, the disciple of Minato Jonin, transplanted the Sharingan from our clan." Uchiha Tetsuka said.

That's right, things developed just as he expected, or just like in his previous life.

As expected, the Iwagakure Village bypassed Konoha's base in the Rain Country and sent out an elite force to raid the border of the Fire Country.

The defense forces of Konoha stationed there were almost wiped out. In the end, it was Minato Namikaze who arrived in time and defeated the invading Iwagakure.

But this only slowed down the pace of the Iwagakure Village's attack and could not prevent them from continuing to break through this gap.

In order to buy time to mobilize troops, Konoha formulated a plan to destroy the Kamubi Bridge, an important material transportation channel for the Iwagakure Village.

A week ago, under the cover of several teams, Minato's squad successfully sneaked into the rear of the Iwagakure occupied area and arrived near the Kannabi Bridge.

Qingming was unclear about the battle process in between, he only knew that the result was the same as in the previous life, Uchiha Obito "sacrificed", Nohara Rin followed his will and transplanted one of his eyes to Kakashi, so that Kakashi got a Sharingan.

It seems to be to boost morale and to build momentum for Minato Namikaze.

In short, the story of the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, in which two Sharingan heroes were born at once, spread quickly, and even he, who was far away, had heard about it.

"But, is there any problem with this matter?"

Qingming was puzzled, so he looked at Uchiha Tiehuo and said, "I have heard of this matter. What's the matter?"

Hearing this, Uchiha Tiehuo looked around and confirmed that there was no one around before he said, "I heard that some people in the clan are dissatisfied with Kakashi's transplant of the Sharingan, and seem to be seeking to get the eye back." Hearing his words, Qingming suddenly understood.

Yes, think about it, the Hyuga clan did everything they could to ensure that the Byakugan would not leak out. As the Sharingan is as famous as it is, how could the Uchiha clan be willing to let an outsider get it?

Even if Kakashi said that this was a gift from Uchiha Obito, it would not work.

Therefore, it is normal for such voices to arise within the tribe.

However, Qingming knew that this would not be possible.

Not to mention the memories of his previous life, more than ten years later, Kakashi was still using this eye. The existence of Minato Namikaze alone was enough to protect Kakashi.

As long as they understand that this eye was given to them by Uchiha Obito as his last wish, and that the village needs a hero, it will be impossible for the Uchiha clan to take back the Sharingan unless they are willing to bear the infamy of bullying a war hero.

Obviously, the Uchiha clan would never want such a reputation.

What's more, although Hatake Sakuei is dead, the network of contacts he left behind as the famous Konoha White Fang still exists.

Due to various reasons, these people might not say anything openly, but they will definitely help Kakashi in secret.

In this way, it would be even more impossible for the Uchiha clan to get the eye back.

Uchiha Tiehuo didn't know what Qingming was thinking, and he was still talking: "If you ask me, those people in the clan are really stupid. It's just an eye. Since Obito has already been given to the other party, what else do you want?"

"Besides, without the blood of the Uchiha clan, Kakashi would not be able to fully utilize the effect of that eye. There is really no need to offend others because of it."

Hearing what Uchiha Tiehuo said, Qingming looked at him with surprise.

He originally thought that the other party would stand on the side of the radicals when faced with such a thing, but he never expected that he could see so clearly.

Indeed, a mere Sharingan cannot exert its full power in the hands of someone who does not have the blood of the Uchiha clan.

In this case, it is really unwise to insist on taking it back.

This can certainly maintain the reputation of the Uchiha clan as a powerful family in Konoha, and at the same time warn other people with ulterior motives who covet the Uchiha clan's Sharingan.

But at the same time, this move will also arouse the disgust of a large number of people.

After all, the person who obtained the Sharingan was not from another village, but a war hero from this village. The Uchiha clan's actions could not make them unite against a common enemy.

On the contrary, giving up on trying to retrieve the eye might potentially earn the Uchiha clan a good reputation.

In this way, by comparing the two, it is clear which one to choose.

It is estimated that in his previous life, Uchiha Fugaku took these things into consideration, which is why he suppressed other voices within the clan and gave up on retrieving the eye.

'I'm afraid it's similar in this life.'

Qingming thought so in his heart.

In front, Uchiha Tiehuo was a little scared by his gaze and asked quickly: "Why, Qingming, do you have a different opinion?"

"No."

Qing Ming shook his head and said, "You are quite right."

"Then do you think the clan leader will agree to those people's proposal and take back the Sharingan?" Uchiha Tiehuo asked again.

"will not!"

Qing Ming said in a decisive tone.

"why?"

Uchiha Tetsuka asked.

"Because if you can figure it out, the clan leader can definitely figure it out too."

Qing Ming replied.

After saying that, he no longer paid attention to the other party, but raised his hands, formed the '壬' character seal, and performed the ninjutsu - Shadow Clone Technique!
