Assassin replied matter-of-factly, "Of course it's Father. Otherwise, why would Father be the clan head and Kawasaki-senpai be the vice-clan head?"
Fugaku was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, which carried far and wide.
Naruto, who had been busy with housework all night, finally fell asleep at the crack of dawn.
In a daze, he had a dream.
In his dream, he had his father and mother, as well as his senior Kawasaki, but they all turned into big bowls of Ichiraku Ramen.
Naruto reached out and grabbed him.
"Ouch!"
Naruto tumbled head over heels off the bed.
Naruto rubbed his sleepy eyes and prepared to get up and wash.
With my eyes half-open and half-closed, I could see a figure standing in the house.
Wow!
Naruto was startled and shouted.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the Third Hokage.
"Grandpa Third Hokage, what brings you here?"
"Naruto, I've come to see you. I heard you made a new friend yesterday?"
The Third Hokage said with a smile.
"Hehe, I guess so. You're talking about Kawasaki-senpai, right, Grandpa 3?"
"He's Sasuke's family, and he hopes I can spend more time with Sasuke."
"He was just as nice as the Third Hokage. He took me to eat at Ichiraku Ramen and even had Sasuke buy me lots of clothes."
Naruto couldn't wait to share his joy with his beloved Third Hokage, who listened patiently.
The Third Hokage smiled kindly and said, "So what did your Kawasaki-senpai say to you?"
"Oh! Kawasaki-senpai told me to get along well with Sasuke and not to be naughty or cause trouble."
Naruto slapped his forehead: "Third Hokage, look at this."
As he spoke, he took out the clothes that Sasuke had helped him choose yesterday.
He was gesturing in front of himself.
"How's it going? Does it look good?"
"Yes, it looks good."
After confirming that Kawasaki hadn't instilled anything in Naruto, the Third Hokage was relieved and then chatted with Naruto for a while.
Then, the Third Hokage gave Naruto five thousand ryo.
"Naruto, you've grown up quite a bit. You'll be going to school tomorrow. Remember to listen to your teachers at school. Keep this five thousand taels for your daily use."
Naruto, somewhat bewildered, held the money and asked, "Third Hokage, why are you giving me so much money?"
The Third Hokage smiled gently and said, "Going to the Ninja Academy requires buying all sorts of ninja tools, which all cost money. Don't waste your money."
Naruto was deeply moved: "Thank you, Third Hokage! When I grow up, I will definitely repay you!"
"Haha, I remember what you said. Go report for duty early tomorrow. I should go now."
"Alright! Hehe!"
Life suddenly seemed to become wonderful.
Naruto couldn't help but chuckle to himself.
In the Uchiha clan's territory.
"Offer tea to your master."
Sasuke didn't really understand the concept of becoming an apprentice, but he didn't dislike Kawasaki.
So, at Fugaku's urging, I formally became Kawasaki's apprentice today.
Fugaku wanted to invite a few friends, but Kawasaki, who disliked formalities, declined.
In Kawasaki's words, having a cup of tea is considered the formal apprenticeship ceremony.
How much Sasuke can learn depends entirely on himself.
After Kawasaki finished his tea, Fugaku left quickly.
Although they no longer need to manage the guards, the reconstruction of the Uchiha clan is a heavy task.
Fugaku spent most of his time arranging reconstruction matters.
Of course, these are all things that are out in the open.
Fugaku was secretly looking for business talent to pave the way for future plans.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for significantly altering the trajectory of Uchiha Sasuke's life.]
Congratulations, host, you have obtained: Space Teleportation ×1.
Chapter 30 Rinnegan! Guidance!
Space teleportation?
It looks like the eye technique Sasuke used in Boruto after acquiring the Rinnegan.
Use it once if you can, no matter how much Kawasaki complains, the system won't respond.
We can only wait until this phase of the task is completed to see if any new features are unlocked.
After Fugaku left, only Sasuke and Kawasaki were left staring at each other.
"Master, what do you plan to teach me today?"
Kawasaki scratched his head. He hadn't thought about how to teach Sasuke before, and he didn't have any specific plans.
However, since Sasuke will be going to school in the future, it's more appropriate for him to learn basic knowledge there.
At most, he would give Sasuke some extra help in private.
To help Sasuke grow up faster.
He also needs to change his habit of pretending.
Kawasaki cleared his throat: "Sasuke, since you've called me master, I'll officially teach you from now on."
"Yes! Master!"
Sasuke sat up straight.
Kawasaki waved his hand: "I don't like formal interactions, there's no need to be so formal. Just treat me as a friend."
"Okay, Master."
Sasuke's expression relaxed, and his posture became less formal.
Kawasaki said, "Now your master is going to test you."
Sasuke coolly replied, "Master, please test me. I'm very good."
Kawasaki led Sasuke to the empty courtyard.
"Alright, Sasuke, now attack me, use everything you know..."
"Whether it's shuriken, kunai, or fire jutsu, you must attack with the intention of killing me."
Sasuke knew there would be a test today, so he prepared his ninja tool bag in advance.
"Master, I'm here!"
Sasuke crouched down, drew his shuriken, and assumed a fighting stance.
Kawasaki waved his hand, signaling Sasuke to attack.
Sasuke threw two shuriken, with good aim.
Kawasaki stood still, and when the shuriken flew towards him, he tilted his head slightly, letting it pass by.
Seeing that the shuriken was ineffective, Sasuke rushed forward and performed a set of seemingly complex movements—well, it should be Uchiha clan taijutsu.
Kawasaki easily blocked Sasuke's attack with one hand.
The taijutsu of the Uchiha clan often exists solely for the purpose of showing off.
When combined with the Sharingan, the Uchiha clan possesses exceptional coordination.
With the aid of keen observation skills, their battles were as graceful as dancing on a knife's edge.
But Sasuke is still young and weak, and hasn't awakened his Sharingan yet.
In Kawasaki's view, it was similar to doing calisthenics, with many fancy kicks and rolls riddled with flaws.
He casually punched Sasuke in the stomach.
Sasuke froze, slowly took a few steps back, knelt down, and spat before recovering.
"You're still a long way off, Sasuke."
Kawasaki said it casually.
But this ignited Sasuke's competitive spirit, and he began to form hand seals.
Si - Wei - Shen - Hai - Wu - Yin
Fire escape, the technique of the great fireball!
Sasuke took a deep breath, and a burst of raging flames shot out.
Everything before him was ablaze with red, and Sasuke hadn't even finished exhaling.
Even his father had praised him, and Sasuke's thoughts weren't finished yet.
Kawasaki, however, had already bypassed the wall of fire and struck Sasuke in the neck with a chop to the neck.
"Cough cough cough cough..."
Sasuke was using his full Fire Release technique when this blow struck his neck, almost making him unable to breathe.
