As soon as Uchiha Giyuu entered the main gate of the clan, he encountered a medium-sized dog wearing sunglasses and a vest.
It was originally entrenched at the entrance, lazily basking in the sun to replenish vitamin D, but the moment it sensed Yiyong, it immediately turned over, its small and cute nose wrinkled like a wolf, and opened its mouth wide to eat at Yiyong.
He barked wildly, as if he smelled something dirty on him that ordinary people couldn't detect.
Yiyong looked at it blankly and had no intention of fighting it, so he planned to take a detour.
But this dog understood the essence of King Qin's way of circumambulating the pillars, and in two or three steps he blocked Yiyong right in front of him, cursing and barking non-stop.
If you are brave enough to go to the left, it will also go to the left.
When the righteous and brave go to the right, he also goes to the right.
If he marches forward bravely, he will retreat.
In short, I just made up my mind to block the road.
The noise made by the dog attracted many Uchiha people to look in this direction, and their faces suddenly became very exciting.
"Isn't that the patriarch's son? He was actually stopped by a dog?"
"A ninja dog, that kid has never even participated in one training session, so it's normal to be scared."
"You're five years old and you haven't started training yet? Does Fugaku think Itachi is already good enough, so he relaxes the education of his two younger sons?"
"Probably only this kid named Giyu is like this. I saw the other day that the kid named Sasuke is already very proficient in the clone technique and has a very good talent..."
"Yes, Mikoto said, there is only this child named Giyu. He has not been interested in becoming a ninja since he was a child, but he likes to do housework very much. It would be great if he is a girl."
"Is it at this juncture? The conflict between the village and us Uchiha may break out at any time. People without power will only become a burden. Huh, I don't know what Fugaku thinks. It seems that I have to talk to him.
Already."
"But having said that, Mikoto's three children are all very good-looking."
"That's true. But this child... seems to have facial paralysis."
…
The voices of the tribesmen talking were not too low, but Yiyong turned a deaf ear to them.
He stared at the ninja dog in front of him, wondering whether the other person's sight hidden behind his sunglasses had seen through his "true identity".
That's right, Uchiha Giyuu is not just a simple five-year-old child.
In his own words, he was just a thief who stole this childish body.
As for the soul in the body, it comes from a world and belongs to a man named Tomioka Giyu.
In Tomioka Giyu's original world, he was a ghost hunter, with the goal of survival being to kill cannibals.
Because his dependent sister was killed by a demon, Tomioka Giyu joined a civilian armed organization called the "Demon Slayer Squad" when he was thirteen. At the age of seventeen, he became one of the nine strongest swordsmen in the organization. Because of his proficiency in
The breath of water and its supporting swordsmanship are respectfully called [Water Pillar].
At the age of twenty-one, Giyuu had to overdraw his life and activate [Spots] to increase his combat effectiveness in order to fight against the ancestor of ghosts, Muzan Mutsuji. In the end, he and other team members worked together to successfully eradicate Muzan Mutsuji.
But the Demon Slayer Corps also paid a heavy price. Not to mention almost all its members were killed or injured, and the remaining powerful swordsmen also died soon because of their markings. They could live up to twenty-five years old.
Giyu Tomioka, who regarded himself as a water column, died peacefully in the Demon Slayer Cemetery on his twenty-third birthday.
However, before his death, he finally reached the "supreme realm" of a warrior and mastered the observation skill called "Transparent World", which is something to be proud of.
Originally, Yiyong thought that after his death, he would meet his long-dead parents, sister and teammates in the underworld.
But when he opened his eyes again, he became a newborn ninja named Uchiha Giyu, and he still had the memories of his previous life.
Now five years have passed, and Yiyong still cannot accept his new identity.
He believed that he had unintentionally stolen a child's opportunity to survive in the world from scratch. He could never consider himself the "real" son of the Uchiha couple.
(Note: Here we need to consider the historical background of Yiyong’s life and his experience in dealing with ghosts. Don’t substitute the common “I’ll settle for you as you come” common among modern time travellers.)
In order to make up for the debt in his heart, and to repay the Uchiha couple for their upbringing, Giyuu took over the housework of the Uchiha Fugaku family from the age of three, taking care of and protecting their other two children, Itachi and
Sasuke regards it as his most important duty and responsibility.
At the same time, the reason why Yiyong does not participate in training is because he feels that he is just an outsider after all and is not qualified to learn other people's family skills.
On the other hand, Giyuu didn't intend to be a ninja who would take people's lives upon receiving orders, so so far he has only practiced the water breathing engraved in his soul and reached the level of Changzhong.
Maybe it's because the physical fitness of humans in this world is generally very good, and he is an Uchiha. He has been familiar with it since he was a child, and the water breathing that he can never make mistakes does not put much burden on his body.
anyway.
Just as Uchiha Giyuu was thinking about breaking off a piece of carrot to lure the dog away, a familiar voice came from the distance.
"Kakashi-senpai, keep an eye on your ninja dog. If you scare Giyuu, I won't be able to tell the clan leader."
Yiyong calmly cast his gaze over.
The speaker was a cute, tall, baby-faced ninja, with the hilt of a ninja sword exposed from the back of his neck. He seemed to be about the same age as Tanjiro, and his shallow tear trough gave him a trustworthy feeling.
.
Giyuu knew this person. He was his brother Uchiha Itachi's friend Uchiha Shisui. The 17-year-old had a 14-year-old face. He often went to his house. He loved to talk to Giyuu and would bring little books to Sasuke.
, so Yiyong has a good impression of him.
Because of the close distance between Shisui and Itachi, Giyuu once observed each other using the "Transparent World" and found that Shisui, like his father Uchiha Fugaku, had accumulated a whole group of extremely dark energy in the brain.
Much richer than ordinary tribesmen.
The feeling that that power gives Giyuu, although not as extreme and pure evil as Kibutsuji Muzai, is very ominous and I wonder if it will become a hidden danger.
When the nearby Uchiha people saw Shisui, their expressions were different.
The older people stared at him angrily, as if they were angry, while the young people looked at him with a lot of admiration in their eyes.
Of course, in the eyes of Yiyong, who is not good at distinguishing emotions, the difference is not big.
"Ah. Sorry, sorry."
Walking side by side with Shisui was a masked man covering his left eye with a forehead protector, holding a cardboard box in his hand.
His expression was very similar to that of the yellow-haired team member next to Tanjiro when he was on a mission. He looked dazed, as if he was about to fall asleep. Moreover, the tone of his apology was insincere and extremely perfunctory.
to be honest
Yiyong's first impression of him...
Pretty average.
"Aquino, don't bully the children."
Following Kakashi's call, the dog wearing sunglasses ran up to Kakashi and let out a series of unexplained growls, seemingly speaking ill of Giyuu.
After hearing this, Kakashi turned his right eye thoughtfully around Giyuu, then freed up his right hand and patted the dog's head: "You like to meddle in other people's business. If you do this again next time, don't go out and do anything.
Already."
Aquino immediately wrinkled his nose, opened his mouth wide and lunged at Kakashi's wrist.
Kakashi rolled his eyes and formed a seal, and the ninja dog immediately turned into a ball of white smoke and disappeared.
【Psychicism?】
Giyuu had seen Itachi and Shisui use this technique, and they had summoned cats and crows respectively.
[It turns out that this is not Uchiha's family ninjutsu. Maybe I can learn it later and let the animals go shopping to save time...]
Giyuu stared at Kakashi for a while, ignored everyone, and walked in the direction of his home, as if these two adults were not worth his attention.
Shisui was already very familiar with his style, so he took a step forward to stop him and looked down at the two bulging plastic bags.
"Two huge salmons."
There was a trace of surprise on Zhisui's face.
"Would you like to make a salmon feast today? It's really rich and luxurious. You are so capable, Jiyong."
He noticed that the plastic bag had the mark of the Akimichi family, which meant that the fish should have been raised by the Akimichi family using secret methods. It was more nutritious than wild salmon, but of course the price was also ridiculously expensive.
Such a fish at BBQ Q will probably cost tens of thousands of taels just for the materials (one tael corresponds to 10 yen, equivalent to 6 cents of RMB), not to mention the labor costs of deboning, dethorning and cutting.
The reward for a C-level mission should not be enough.
"Today is Sasuke's birthday."
Yi Yong replied succinctly and concisely, "I want to eat better."
Shisui's smile solidified on his face.
[Last time for Patriarch Fugaku’s birthday, didn’t you just make a bowl of soba noodles? 】
[You and Itachi just spoil that brat. Oops, I really envy Itachi. He has delicious food after get off work every day...]
"Oh, don't forget about your birthday if you don't tell me." Shisui patted his head, "But Giyuu, you are twins, and today is also your birthday."
"Sasuke and I are different."
Yiyong shook his head and emphasized solemnly.
"I know, I know, you know how to do housework. You are already an adult, so you don't bother to celebrate a child's birthday."
Zhisui was perfunctory and reached out to rummage around on his body for a while, "Oops, except for the detonating talisman, I don't have anything valuable as a gift for you. I have a mission tonight, and it will be too late to give you a gift when I get back."
After saying that, he looked at Kakashi holding the cardboard box and seemed to have an idea in his mind.
"Senior, let me introduce you to him. This cute little brother is named Yiyong, and he is the son of the Fugaku clan leader."
After saying that, he turned back to introduce Giyong: "This is Hatake Kakashi, my senior at work. Yesterday, an old man from the clan passed away due to illness in Konoha Hospital. As for that grandma, she used to be very
I'm taking care of one of Kakashi-senpai's teammates, so I brought him to the clan to pack up the belongings she left behind."
Hearing this, Yiyong looked slightly stunned.
Death, he was already very familiar with it.
But, where will the people who die in this world go?
Will he go to the next world with his memories like him? So where did everyone who once fought side by side with him go?
When he thinks of this incident, he will feel complicated.
Shisui noticed the subtle changes in Giyu's expression and was slightly surprised.
He knew that this child could neither laugh nor cry since he was born, but this was the first time he had seen such a sad expression.
[Itachi, your brother’s first time, I accept it without mercy.]
"Now that you have met, Kakashi-senpai..."
Zhisui smiled slyly, revealing his true intention, "Today happens to be Giyuu's birthday. Do you have any gifts for him?"
Kakashi rolled his eyes for the second time.
【You forgot to give a gift, do you want me to make up for it?】
He reluctantly reached for his pocket.
"It doesn't matter what book Jiraiya-sama wrote, Giyuu may not be able to understand such profound things."
Zhisui waved his hands quickly and said.
[If you give me something like that, Aunt Mikoto will kill me.]
"That's a collector's edition. You think so."
The corners of Kakashi's mouth twitched under his mask, and he turned his attention to Giyuu again, focusing mainly on the ingredients in his hands.
"Since you like cooking..."
He took out a stack of yellowed cards bound by steel rings from the cardboard box. They looked old.
"How about the recipe?"
"Hey Hey hey--"
Shisui blinked his eyes wildly.
[Kakashi-senpai, why do you give other people’s relics as gifts?]
Yiyong put down the bag and took the card with both hands, not caring that it belonged to a deceased person.
"Minato-sensei's Secret Recipe".
There was a line of crooked words written on the top of the stack of cards, in which "recipe" was crossed out and rewritten twice, but in the end it was still written wrong, which seemed to imply that the owner of this thing was not very smart.
Yiyong flipped through it quickly. There were thirty cards in total, and each card had a specific recipe for one or two dishes.
Of course, the handwriting is still crooked and different in size, but it can be seen that the person who copied this thing is very serious and can read the back of the paper.
Yiyong turned to the last page, and there was a signature on it, and a pattern similar to goggles was drawn next to it.
"Uchiha Obito."
Yiyong read it out and shook his head, "Who is it?"
He had never seen a tribesman with a similar name come to his father.
Hearing this name, Kakashi's body trembled slightly.
"Yeah, it turns out it's a relic of Obito-senpai, so this recipe is a very precious thing."
Shisui scratched his head and said to Giyuu: "Uchiha Obito is Kakashi-senpai's former teammate. However, he died in the last ninja war and is a hero in the village. This recipe book
,Yiyong, you have to put it away."
"The hero of the village."
Uchiha Giyuu was quite familiar with these words. After all, he had been listening to his father talk about these things to his clan members all day long.
"In the village?"
[Isn’t he a hero of “Uchiha”? 】
"You are very sensitive. However, at that time, the relationship between our Uchiha clan and the village was not as tense as it is now."
Shisui seemed not to want to dwell on this issue, "Well, you like cooking so much, this gift should be suitable for you.
"Judging from the name of the card, this should be the Fourth Hokage's private recipe. Obito-senpai is his student. I remember Aunt Mikoto has a very good relationship with the Fourth Hokage's family. You follow the process above.
, she should be very surprised."
"so."
[Then let’s try Amaterasu instead.]
Giyuu arranged the cards and put them into his pocket, then looked at Kakashi, "I will return the gift."
"Thanks is enough, kid."
Kakashi winked, "But I think you don't seem satisfied yet."
"I'm not dissatisfied."
Yiyong replied coldly and walked away without even looking back.
"The kid now has such a personality. That expression definitely shows dissatisfaction."
Kakashi felt a little regretful about giving that thing to this child whom he had only met once.
But if you keep it in your own home, it will only stir up emotion. Since he promised the Third Generation to cheer up, it would be a better choice to give it away, and it would also allow Minato-sensei's recipes to be carried forward.
"Yiyong is actually a very gentle child, but he's just not good at expressing himself."
Shisui has long been accustomed to Giyu's weird temper, "He's not interested in becoming a ninja, so he must like your gift very much. Come on, Kakashi-senpai, as a thank you, I'll treat you to a meal
How about ramen?”
"Isn't there another child who also has a birthday? What to do with his gift?"
"As for Sasuke, if you receive a gift from someone, you will be happy. You can make up for it tomorrow."
"That's it."
Kakashi followed Shisui calmly and left the Uchiha clan, but he was thinking about what the ninja dog Aquino told him.
"That kid is super dangerous."
[You are not interested in becoming a ninja, but can you lift two half-meter-long salmon with one hand? (about 15 kilograms)]
[But considering that he is an Uchiha, maybe it’s not surprising. It’s that look in his eyes that makes people unable to ignore it...]
Well, why bother with so many other things? Just think about how to fish at work! Kakashi!
