The person gives off a feeling that you should stay away from them.

"Sasuke, if there's anything you need to do, go find your brother first."

“...Yes, Mother.”

Sasuke subconsciously held his breath, nodded obediently, and practically tiptoed away from the oppressive atmosphere that made him uneasy.

The sliding door closed gently behind him, and he stood under the eaves, only then letting out a quiet sigh of relief.

Now, Itachi, the older brother, has gone to carry out a mission.

"Go see what Naruto is up to."

Sasuke put his hands in his pockets.

After much thought, Sasuke was shocked to realize that, apart from Itachi, he was the only one left.

Naruto is actually my best friend?

"Hmm... never mind, let's go wait for my brother at the place where he usually trains."

Sasuke thought to himself.

He doesn't want to see Naruto right now.

Naruto is probably showing off his new summon right now.

Sasuke plans to wait until he has a summoning beast before going to see Naruto.

Otherwise, Sasuke would feel like he's being overshadowed by Naruto, and he hates that feeling.

……

Not long after Sasuke left, Mikoto, still feeling uneasy, picked up the mop again and finished cleaning.

"Mikoto."

A voice came from behind.

"Kiyoshi, you...you've come."

The familiar voice sounded behind her, causing her to pause, somewhat surprised and delighted.

She turned around, trying her best to put on her usual gentle smile:

"Kiyoshi, you...you've come."

However, when her gaze passed over Kiyoshi's shoulder and fell upon the unfamiliar, young, and slender figure behind him,

The curve of her lips subtly faded, and her voice unconsciously lowered.

Uchiha Hikaru was standing behind Kiyoshi.

She was a woman with delicate features.

Her skin was fair, her expression serene, and her jet-black hair fell smoothly over her shoulders.

She stood quietly behind Qing Si, her eyes as calm as a lake, without a trace of panic.

It gives people the feeling of... a tool.

"She is our new clansman, Uchiha Hikaru."

Kiyoshi explained.

"Hello."

Mikoto's voice was devoid of emotion; only her dark eyes revealed a hint of crimson.

"Hello."

Uchiha Hikaru responded.

"She also activated the kaleidoscope."

Kiyoshi continued speaking.

"!"

Mikoto looked at Uchiha Hikaru's face.

Her gaze fell on Uchiha Hikaru's face. Although she tried to appear calm, she couldn't help but scrutinize him.

She knew very well how difficult it was to open the kaleidoscope.

This woman has also activated the kaleidoscope?

Mikoto looked closely at Uchiha Hikaru's face; what a beautiful and youthful face she had.

The skin is firm and full of youthful vitality.

Mikoto's fingertips tightened, and a slight stinging sensation came from her palm.

She had to admit that Uchiha Hikaru was very good-looking.

At this moment, Mikoto felt a strong sense of crisis regarding her position as the primary wife.

Because she was older than Kiyoshi, Mikoto felt somewhat inferior and indebted.

Now we see a woman who is just as young as Kiyoshi and also possesses a kaleidoscope.

The alarm bells in her heart kept ringing.

"I see... Please have a seat."

As her thoughts raced, she returned to the kitchen to make tea.

The aroma of tea rose, reflecting the steam, making Mikoto's expression somewhat blurred.

Soon after, she returned with a tea tray.

The teacup landed gently on the wooden table, making a crisp sound.

She sat down next to Qing Si, subtly moving closer to him, seemingly implying her dominance.

Hikaru Uchiha was unaware of all these intricacies.

She knelt quietly opposite her, her posture somewhat stiff, as if she wasn't used to this kind of everyday interaction.

Despite her youthful appearance, she is actually a centenarian.

Having always been used as a weapon in war, her emotions were far more detached than those of ordinary people, and her psychological age was more naive, making her completely unable to understand the undercurrents beneath Mikoto's actions.

"Mikoto, I came here because I wanted you and Hikaru to have a sparring match."

Kiyoshi said.

He wanted to see how Uchiha Hikaru performed in actual combat.

I also want to see if I can replicate Misaka's eye technique, and collect some data along the way.

His gaze shifted to the space between the two.

"I?"

Mikoto's eyelashes trembled slightly.

After thinking for a moment, Mikoto said:

"I see."

She also wanted to see what this woman was capable of.

"You don't have any objections, do you, Guang?"

Kiyoshi turned to look at Uchiha Hikaru.

"No."

Uchiha Hikaru shook his head.

The Qing official has the highest authority, and one must obey him.

She decided to follow Kiyoshi and find out what she wanted to do.

"Then I'll take you there."

Kiyoshi touched Uchiha Hikaru and Mikoto with his hands.

The three figures appeared in another location.

……

Inside the Uchiha clan's private training grounds.

The area was surrounded by tall wooden stakes and targets, with traces of shuriken practice scattered on the ground.

In the arena, two women from the Uchiha clan stood facing each other.

Mikoto had changed out of her home kimono, her long black hair tied back, and put on a dark ninja outfit that allowed her to move around easily, which accentuated her mature and voluptuous figure.

Opposite her, Uchiha Hikari was still wearing her slightly old-fashioned trench coat, standing there quietly.

Her beautiful face remained expressionless, though she didn't understand why they suddenly wanted to spar.

But she only needs to execute the commands.

"let's start."

Kiyoshi spoke after seeing that the two were almost ready.

The moment the words fell, Mikoto's figure blurred, and in the next instant she was close to Uchiha Hikaru.

After gathering chakra in her palm, Mikoto delivered a karate chop to the side of Uchiha Hikaru's neck.

Uchiha Hikari's reaction was somewhat hasty; she seemed to be unskilled in close combat and instinctively raised her arm to block.

boom!

A dull thud resounded, and Uchiha Hikaru was forced to slide back half a step by the force of the impact.

A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, as if she hadn't expected Mikoto's chakra control to be so good, greatly amplifying her strength.

Then, the two women continued to change their movements and fight.

In the beginning, everyone held back.

The fighting then became increasingly intense.

Kiyoshi stood behind them, watching the battle unfold, quietly appreciating it.

Sometimes, the battles between women can be quite entertaining.

Soon, the situation on the field changed.

Uchiha Hikaru's movements were clean and efficient, without any unnecessary frills.

She crouched low to dodge, and at the same time, grabbed Mikoto's arm and struck her side with her elbow.

"drink!"

Mikoto let out a low shout, blocked the attack with her backhand, and her fingertips flowed with chakra to intercept the heavy blow.

boom!

Both of them took half a step back at the same time.

After a brief separation, Mikoto gave the other party no chance to catch her breath and reached into her ninja tool pouch with both hands.

shhhhhh!

Several shurikens shot out, their cold light flashing.

From different angles and with different rotational trajectories, it enveloped Uchiha Hikaru's vital points!

This is the "Shurikenjutsu" that the Uchiha clan is so proud of.

Chapter 424 Engraving Eye Technique, Adopting Tayuya

Uchiha Hikaru drew a kunai with a backhand.

With a slight twist of his wrist, the kunai traced a semi-circle, knocking all the shuriken down with a series of clanging sounds.

But Mikoto's attack did not end there.

Before the first wave of shuriken had even completely hit the ground, she shifted her feet, lowered her body, and threw several more shuriken from her hand.
