Chapter 291: The Uchiha Clan's "Dragon and Phoenix"
Chapter 291: The Uchiha Clan's "Dragon and Phoenix"
The next day!
Dong Ping was dragged out shopping by Uzumaki Kyuhinane.
Now that she was the Hokage's Consort, she had much more freedom than before.
In the past, if she wanted to see Dong Ping, she would have to first get permission from the Third Hokage.
But now?
How dare Fuyuki Namikaze not agree?
So she took Kakashi with her early in the morning to 'crash' into Dong Ping's resting place.
The Mountain Clan members, of course, wouldn't stop her.
Aside from her status as the Hokage's Consort, her relationship with Dong Ping alone was enough for them to ignore her.
Walking on the hot streets, Dong Ping couldn't understand where the other party's energy came from, braving the scorching sun to go shopping.
Fortunately, Hyuga Cangyue and Uchiha Meika were busy and didn't follow, or he would have been flabbergasted.
After shopping for a while, they encountered a familiar face coming from the opposite direction.
"Meiqin!"
Uzumaki Kyuhinane's eyes lit up, and she quickly walked over.
Indeed, the figure walking in front was Uchiha Meiqin and Daxiaozi.
And in Daxiaozi's arms was a tiny baby.
It must be said that people's physical qualities differ, and the descendants of ninjas and ordinary people start from different points.
Ordinary children wouldn't dare to be taken out so soon after birth.
But the descendants of ninjas are tough; they're already out shopping at such a young age.
Dong Ping's gaze naturally turned to the Second Pillar first.
Don't get the wrong idea; he just wanted to witness the reincarnation of 'Indra' and obtain some of his blood.
"Kyuhinane!"
Uchiha Meiqin also approached with an excited expression.
The two of them were close friends, not the superficial type, so they often went shopping together.
"Dong Ping-kun!"
"Dong Ping-sama!"
Of course, Uchiha Meiqin and Daxiaozi also interacted with Dong Ping, while Kakashi, who was hiding in the corner, was simply ignored.
Dong Ping nodded slightly in response.
Daxiaozi was only five years old at this time, and there were already faint laugh lines on both sides of his cheeks, and his eyes were deep and steady, as if he was pondering something.
Hmm, he should be using the 'Hokage's Mentality' to think right now, right?
Dong Ping felt like screaming.
This was purely Hari's doing, hyping him up.
It must be said that Hari's claim of being the 'Strongest Hokage' was exaggerated, but when it came to his ability to persuade, he was indeed the strongest.
After the group reunited, Uchiha Meiqin and Uzumaki Kyuhinane walked in front, while Dong Ping and the others followed behind.
Itachi, who had been observing Dong Ping, couldn't hold back any longer and spoke up.
"Dong Ping-sama, what's your take on the relationship between the Uchiha Clan and the village?"
He really wanted to know why the other party was dissatisfied with the village, even though the village had treated him so well.
Dong Ping's reputation in the Leaf Village wasn't good.
There was no way; after graduating, he spent most of his time outside the village, and the Root Division never stopped spreading negative rumors about him, making it impossible for his reputation to improve.
Even his achievement of ranking first in the Chuunin Exams was suppressed to the point that no one knew about it.
So now, the villagers' impression of him was that of a rebellious, defiant, and ambitious person.
And because he carried the surname 'Uchiha,' it seemed even more reasonable.
Because in the villagers' minds, the Uchiha Clan had this kind of image.
"I'll just watch!" Dong Ping's words almost made Daxiaozi laugh, but he still offered some practical advice, "Sometimes, don't pay attention to what they say; look at what they do!"
Regarding the relationship between the village and the Uchiha Clan, he genuinely didn't want to comment.
While it was true that the village's constant vigilance and suppression were the root cause.
But setting aside the facts, didn't the Uchiha Clan have any responsibility at all?
After all, you weren't around during the time of Madara, and even though you could rival the Senju Clan, you still maintained that arrogance, on top of monopolizing too many interests. Who could tolerate that?
So, when the Second Hokage suppressed and restricted the Uchiha Clan, if they had proactively integrated into the village, like the Hyuga Clan, they might not have gained complete trust, given the danger of the Sharingan.
But they certainly wouldn't have been rejected by the village to this extent.
Dong Ping had always looked down upon the time-travelers who fawned over the Uchiha clan.
Despicable!
Are they trying to be righteous? They are just jealous of their Sharingan, and that's despicable.
So, when it was his turn, he directly 'dismantled' the Uchiha Nagahouse lineage.
Besides ensuring that clan rules did not supersede his own, he also mixed a large amount of sand into their settlement, preventing them from 'claiming their own territory.' On top of that, he held a significant amount of resources that could enhance their strength, effectively taking away the Uchiha's fighting spirit.
Thus, the Uchiha Nagahouse lineage, in the Celestial Fortress, was merely 'aloof' and not at all arrogant.
"Look at what they've done?"
Daxiaozi frowned, pondering these words, but he couldn't understand their meaning.
And Dong Ping had no intention of comforting the other person.
He had a poor impression of this 'Itachi God' who, in the name of the Flame Will, committed genocide against his clan. If you truly had the determination and ability, why didn't you find a way to take your clan out of the village?
Even if it might fail, it could still save many of your clansmen, right?
The Uchiha clan had never mistreated him, this 'Young Clan Leader,' just like Obito.
But later, he and Obito destroyed the Uchiha clan.
It can only be said that the two of them were indeed the Uchiha clan's 'Dragons and Phoenixes.'
During their stroll, Dong Ping naturally took the opportunity to check on the future Second Pillar.
With his strength, even with so many people around, he conducted a thorough examination and obtained a sample of the other's blood.
Under the effect of Medical Ninjutsu, not even a scar was left behind.
Of course, during this process, Dong Ping also checked on Kyukina and confirmed that his plan was without issue.
Twins!
Inside Kyukina's womb, there was not only the future Minato Prince but also another child.
Furthermore, he had left a special tracking powder on the child's body.
As the time of delivery approached, she might not have another chance to meet him alone, so he needed to make arrangements in advance.
Even if Hyuga Cangyue was in his hands, Konoha would surely have a way to block the Byakugan. It would be troublesome if he couldn't locate the target.
After the torture ended and the person was sent back, Dong Ping and Kakashi went to the riverbank.
"Kakashi, if you were given a chance to make up for the regret of killing Yewako Rin, what would you be willing to give?"
Dong Ping got straight to the point.
Yes, Yewako Rin!
At this time, the other party had recovered and was working at the Celestial Fortress hospital.
As for why she was willing, it was naturally because Dong Ping had analyzed the situation for her: with the Three-Tails' chakra (she didn't know it was a Tailed Beast's chakra) inside her, returning to the village would be equivalent to suicide.
Even if she was extremely loyal to the village, she hadn't been brainwashed by the Flame Will, and there was an unknown reason, so she was convinced by Dong Ping to stay at the Celestial Fortress.
"Impossible!"
Kakashi's dead fish eyes instantly lit up.
Because he was very clear that Dong Ping wouldn't joke about such a matter with him.
But he had personally brought Rin's body back to the village and watched her be buried in the memorial stone. How could she be alive?
"What are you willing to give?"
Dong Ping asked again.
Although he was a playful person, he also had the intention of 'conquering' Kakashi, this 'blade.'
Once he conquered the other person, he would have a chess piece in Konoha.
A chess piece that no one would suspect.
In the future, the Celestial Fortress would gradually distance itself from Konoha, so he needed to make arrangements in advance.
"I..." Kakashi began to ponder, but when his gaze fell on his right hand, he decisively said, "Everything!"
Killing Yewako Rin was a nightmare he could never wake up from. Because of this, he had felt countless times that his right hand was stained with blood. Now that he had a chance to make up for it, he was naturally willing to give everything.
"Our conversation from now on, I will seal it with a seal. Do you agree?"
Dong Ping asked.
He was afraid that the other's 'acting' wouldn't be good enough, and he wouldn't be able to play the role of his chess piece well. As long as today's transaction was sealed, then the other person would be acting naturally, and he wouldn't have to worry about being exposed.
"No problem!"
Kakashi didn't hesitate for half a second.
The more careful the other person was, the greater Dong Ping's expectations.
So, Dong Ping spoke of something that completely surprised him.
