Naruto: Starting with the Ten Kage Techniques, Sukuna Jinchuriki

Chapter 13: Rope Tree: I Will Take Action

Hearing the discussion in the classroom, Kushina's expression changed slightly, and Tuotu also froze instantly.

Both the human and the rabbit turned to look at the direction from which the commotion had come.

Those being stared at by Kushina probably sensed a hint of tension and immediately shut up.

The students in the entire classroom fell silent without prior arrangement.

Kushina glanced toward the place where the commotion was loudest, her brows furrowed.

"Where did you hear these things?!"

"Xiao La... We heard it from the class next door, the whole school is talking about it."

The people being stared at by Kushina trembled, fearing that Kushina's fist would strike at any moment.

Ever since Kushina and Fushiko Kuroko started "colluding," she has been playing with those two dogs every day.

Anyone who dares to mock her will be doubly beaten.

This has led the entire class to perceive Kushina as an absolutely untouchable, blood-red hot pepper.

"Damn it, who is it?" Kushina said, somewhat annoyed.

She knew how hard Fukuyo usually trained, and Kushina wouldn't allow anyone to dismiss his efforts with just a few words.

Moreover, these adorable shikigami could never possibly be from the Uchiha clan.

"Besides me, the only person who knows that Yao's mother is from the Uchiha clan is that blondie. Could it be...?"

Minato, who had been subjected to Kushina's death stare, immediately stood up and explained, drenched in sweat:

"Kushina, You, you know me, I'm not that kind of person."

"Calm down, Kushina."

Fukuyo gently comforted Kushina, not taking the matter to heart.

It's no secret that his mother came from the Uchiha clan.

With patience and investigation, you can even find out from your neighbors.

However, Fu Heiyao did not believe that this was just a coincidence, nor could it be explained by a child spreading rumors.

The scale and speed of this spread are beyond the capabilities of the Konoha scoundrels.

Fu Heiyao pondered for a moment and decided to apply the formula.

When you travel to Konoha and rumors suddenly start circulating around you, don't doubt it—it must be Danzo's doing.

"They probably spread the rumor because they knew I had Uchiha blood and had been in contact with Kushina."

Having roughly guessed the ins and outs of the matter, Fu Heiyao was not angry at all; instead, he smiled.

If Danzo had sent Root members directly to contact him, he would have thought more highly of him.

Fu Heiyao glanced at the figure peeking at him through the glass in the corridor and smiled contemptuously.

That's it?

It seems Danzo doesn't even have the ability to warn himself; he can only resort to petty tricks to disgust himself.

"It's just a clown, but flies can be annoying sometimes. I'll kill them when I have the chance later."

Fu Heiyao gazed out the window, as if looking into the distance at the roots, which were nowhere in sight.

The atmosphere in the classroom remained unchanged until Okawa Shuichi arrived, leaving him somewhat puzzled.

However, he was still very gratified because the students understood his difficulties.

The story that Fukuko was from the Uchiha clan did not fade away with time but instead spread further and further, with all sorts of rumors circulating.

This made Fukuko even more certain that Danzo was pulling the strings behind the scenes.

At first, he didn't care, but he noticed that some people in the class were always looking at him strangely.

He didn't care about the stares from the corridor outside the window, since he usually focused most of his energy on studying and cultivating anyway.

Fukuyo only started to get a little annoyed when Uchiha from other classes came looking for him.

As members of a prestigious bloodline family, the Uchiha were naturally smarter than their peers and had relatively little free time at school.

Upon hearing the rumors about the Uchiha clan, they immediately perked up.

"Fukuko, I never expected that we would share the same blood. I've always thought you looked a lot like us Uchiha."

"This face and hairstyle really look like ours."

Many Uchiha stood outside the corridor pointing and whispering, and some even liked to "educate" him by getting close to his face.

This undoubtedly touched a nerve with Obsidian.

Unable to stand the group, Fu Heiyao ordered his jade hound to chase and bite them. When that proved ineffective, he launched a swift and decisive attack during the lunch break.

Fukuyo spent some time figuring out the locations of the classes that the Uchiha were in.

He then stormed into their classroom and attacked any Uchiha who had ever appeared in front of him.

They beat up almost every Uchiha in the entire school.

Kushina stood by and helped Fushiko block the door, giving a good beating to those who tried to escape.

The afternoon was indeed much more relaxed, and those foolish stares finally disappeared.

After all, even the toughest Uchiha are soft when it comes to fighting.

This put Fu Heiya in a good mood.

However, something seemed off when school ended the next day.

Are you going to practice again today?

Kushina took small bites of the popsicle that Fushiko had specially broken for her, and felt that not only was the popsicle sweet, but her heart was even sweeter. She asked as she licked it.

"Go ahead, but there might be a lot of people coming today."

Fu Heiyao glanced behind him and continued walking.

Kushina was a little confused, but she still obediently nodded.

When the two reached the open area where they usually trained, a group of children with the Uchiha clan crest on their backs surrounded them.

Judging from their height, there were both upperclassmen and lowerclassmen, and even a few Uchiha wearing Konoha headbands.

Judging from their height, they are all recent graduates who are new genin.

"Fu Heiyao, you traitor!"

Several Uchiha, their faces bruised and swollen, said smugly.

"You think you're so tough? What good is that? If you're so capable, why don't you take on the whole group by yourself!"

"That's right, you have Uchiha blood in your veins, how could you treat your own clansmen so cruelly?"

"A mixed-race person is a mixed-race person; they have absolutely no Uchiha manners!"

The older Uchiha who had been beaten up chimed in.

They were upperclassmen, yet they were being pinned down and beaten by a lowerclassman, utterly humiliated.

Given the pride of the Uchiha clan, this already constitutes social death for him.

"Kid, we're not unreasonable people either." The Uchiha, wearing a headband, crossed his arms.

He looked at Fukuyo, whose appearance and hairstyle perfectly matched those of an Uchiha, his eyes narrowed slightly, but he still looked down at him and said:

"You went too far."

However, considering you have Uchiha blood flowing through your veins, as long as you apologize to them, this matter will be over.

The other Uchiha members wearing headbands also tacitly agreed, though they were actually quite reluctant to come over.

Isn't this blatant bullying of the weak and a disgrace to the Uchiha clan?

However, since their younger brothers kept arguing, the Uchiha clan members, who were all brother-obsessed, had no choice but to go along.

Upon hearing these words, Fu Heiyao picked at his ear.

"What are you babbling about? If you've got the guts, let's fight."

Fu Heiya didn't want to argue with these Uchiha about right and wrong or reason; all he knew was that he had to start a massacre.

Did they think calling for backup would change the outcome of getting beaten up?

Fu Heiyao will tell them that no matter how many incompetent people there are, they are nothing more than a rabble.

Just as he was about to activate his Lightning Release Armor and summon Orochi to aid him in battle, two figures suddenly sprang out of the bushes.

Brown-haired and yellow-haired, one tall and one short, stood side by side in front of Fu Heiyao.

"Are we too late?"

Minato and Nawaki then stood in front of Fushiko.

"Don't worry, Kushina, I'll take care of it."

Nawaki glanced at Kushina and the "little boyfriend" who had recently caught his attention, looking like a master.

"Rope Tree Bro, Little Yellow Hair."

Seeing the aggressive Uchiha group, including a ninja, even the usually violent Kushina was a little afraid. However, she was no longer afraid when she saw the two people who suddenly appeared.

Even if she and Yao can't win, they can use Rope Tree Brother and Little Yellow Hair as shields to cover their escape.

The moment the rope tree appeared, many Uchiha were in an uproar.

"It's a rope tree!"

"The Senju family's grandson of the First Hokage!"

"It's a bit tricky, but not a big problem."

"We will win!"

"Don't interfere, I'll handle them!"

Just as Nawaki and Minato were about to help, Fushiko took a step forward and shielded them behind him.

Don't be reckless.

Seeing Fushiko's "impulsive" actions, Nawaki reached out to grab him, but Kushina stopped him.

Kushina grabbed Nawaki's arm and shook her head at him.

"Yao is very strong!"

Kushina's eyes seemed to be shining, and her voice was strong and confident.

"Bullshit, that's an Uchiha clan, and a genin too. Even I couldn't beat them in a one-on-one fight." Nawaki curled his lip.

He refused to believe that a first-year student could be stronger than him, the future Hokage.

Kushina seemed not to hear what Nawaki said; her eyes were fixed on the figure of Fushiko.

"Hmph, a woman in love."

Rope Tree muttered to himself.

He suddenly felt a little sad. Why couldn't there be a girl who trusted him so unconditionally?

That little devil with black hair is truly enviable.

"I also believe in Yo-kun. He's the kind of person who's inexplicably strong." Minato agreed with Kushina's statement.

"What? Then he's even better than me?"

Rope Tree looked doubtful.

He met Minato because of this group of Uchiha followers, Kokuyo and Kushina.

A short time cannot determine the depth of friendship; Nawaki has already unilaterally regarded Minato as a friend.

He knew that Minato and Fushiko had a good relationship, but he couldn't ignore the difference in their strength.

Minato smiled without saying a word, simply gesturing for Nawaki to continue watching.

Then Nawaki witnessed what true power was.

Fu Heiyao's aura gradually darkened.

Wisps of lightning gradually emanated from his body, eventually forming a phantom armor of lightning.
