Naruto: The Uchiha remnants of the Senju clan!

Why is there no mention of "Uchiha Madara cells" in Chapter 31?

He has lived for so many years and has seen countless so-called "geniuses".

A genius like Kakashi is a genius in the eyes of others.

Gifted and quick to learn, she is the envy of many and the source of much jealousy.

But he had seen plenty of geniuses like that.

It's just that she has a slightly better learning ability than others.

But Qingyu is different.

This child, at the age of six, had already broken free from conventional constraints.

What he pursued was simply to live.

The pursuit of living is essentially the pursuit of infinite knowledge.

This is fundamentally different from those who are like frogs at the bottom of a well.

"Kiyoyu-kun is really a strange person."

Orochimaru stuck out his long tongue and slowly licked his lips.

This is a small gesture he only makes when he feels extremely happy.

"However, I am also a strange person."

[Collectible trait detected: Viper's Gaze]

[D-Tier Trait: Viper's Gaze]

[Effect: You possess an extraordinary level of caution, enabling you to quickly deduce the most advantageous choice for yourself even in chaotic situations.]

Qingyu looked at the prompt text that appeared in front of her and felt a slight joy in her heart.

This trait is very useful.

It's essentially a passive skill that forces you to stay calm.

When people face danger, anything can happen.

Even the bravest person in normal times may freeze and go blank in the face of death due to the instinct of fear.

That's instinct, a physiological reaction that can't be forcibly suppressed by willpower.

But with this trait, he can maintain a calm mind in any situation and make the best judgment quickly.

For ninjas, a calm mind is sometimes more important than powerful ninjutsu.

"Since Kiyohime-kun is so interested in ninjutsu, I'll teach you one more."

Orochimaru was clearly in a good mood and offered to add extra lessons.

He began to form hand seals, and Qingyu also activated his Sharingan.

Although it is also a Fire Release opening stance, Orochimaru's subsequent chakra mobilization method is completely different from "Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique".

"Fire Release: Snake Bullet."

Orochimaru opened his mouth, and a burst of flame shot out from it.

Unlike ordinary fire-style fire-style fire, which spreads in a fan shape, the flame automatically condensed in the air into a winding, snake-like shape.

The fire serpent, formed from flames, bared its fangs and charged straight at the wooden target.

boom.

The serpentine flame hit the bullseye, leaving a charred mark.

"A D-rank ninjutsu, characterized by the ability to slightly control the trajectory of the flames."

Orochimaru turned around and gestured for Kiyoyu to give it a try.

He wanted to know if Qingyu had subtle differences in his talent in each chakra nature, as this was important data for his research.

Qingyu closed his eyes, recalling the chakra pathways he had just seen with his Sharingan, then opened his eyes and formed several hand seals similar to Orochimaru's.

Then Qingyu opened his mouth and spat out a flame.

The flame twisted in the air, vaguely resembling a snake, but it didn't fly very far, leaving only a few sparks drifting in the air.

Orochimaru nodded slightly.

To achieve this level on the first attempt has far exceeded his expectations.

I estimate I'll be able to master this skill in a day or two.

This child's talent is even greater than he had anticipated.

Then, isn't this the perfect subject of observation?

After a long period of research, Orochimaru vaguely sensed that the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan seemed to have some kind of connection.

The two are sometimes extremely incompatible, and sometimes they can be integrated.

However, "Hashirama cells" are very special, completely overwhelming the cells of other Senju clan members and Uchiha clan members.

Why is it that no one in the Uchiha clan possesses a unique characteristic like "Hashirama cells"?

Or is it possible that the legendary Madara Uchiha also possessed such a special ability?

Why are there "intercolumnar cells" but no "pigmental cells"?

The two were sworn enemies, fighting evenly for their entire lives.

Orochimaru estimated that Madara Uchiha also had some special qualities, otherwise he wouldn't be about the same strength as Hashirama Senju.

After a while, Orochimaru looked at Kiyoha, who was continuing to form hand seals and practice.

He couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle softly.

Orochimaru only vaguely felt that there might be a deeper connection between the two, but this was just his own conjecture.

After all, Madara Uchiha was killed by Hashirama Senju decades ago, and his body was apparently secretly collected by the Second Hokage and possibly destroyed. Even he couldn't find the body, so it's something that can't be verified.

……

It was already dark when I left the research institute.

Qingyu was walking home.

Having learned three new ninjutsu in one day, coupled with the special ability dropped from Orochimaru, the gains were quite substantial.

I pushed open the door and saw that the living room lights were on.

Tsunade, unusually, didn't go out today. She was sitting on the sofa, holding a sheathed katana in her hand, looking at it over and over.

Hearing the door open, she looked up and placed the knife on the coffee table.

"You're back?"

"For you."

Qingyu changed her shoes, walked over, and picked up the samurai sword.

The scabbard is dark brown and looks very new.

Qingyu gripped the hilt and slowly drew the blade from its sheath.

A cold light flashed under the living room lights.

The length of the blade was a bit long for his current size, but not too exaggerated.

"Use this as a transition before Thor's sword comes down."

Tsunade leaned back on the sofa and crossed her legs.

"Thank you, Tsunade-nee."

Qingyu suddenly realized that sometimes the other party was actually quite kind-hearted.

……

Before we knew it, it was final day of the semester.

Today is also the day of final exams.

The atmosphere in the exam room was much more tense than usual. Even the most boisterous students were sitting quietly in their seats, flipping through their notes for a final cram session.

Qingyu walked over and sat down next to Kakashi, casually asking:

"How are the preparations going this time?"

"I specifically sought out my father for a few days of special training."

Kakashi spoke up.

"This time, I'll either be first or second."

The implication is that he is determined to win the first place.

"Don't be so confident, Kakashi."

Qingyu shook her head.

During this period, he has been running with Matt Kay every morning, and both of them are increasing their training volume.

As a result, because of his special qualities, he became more and more energetic as he ran, and Matt Kay was also stimulated to become more and more self-disciplined, with his training volume increasing exponentially.

If we're only testing the release of ninjutsu and genjutsu, Might Guy's level is indeed very poor.

But in real combat, that's a different story.

After all, not many people have mastered ninjutsu yet, so in a real fight, taijutsu is what they use the most.

"Yes, Kakashi, my nemesis, don't underestimate me!"

Matt Kai leaned over from the side, clenched his fist, and revealed arms that were thicker than those of people his age.

Beneath that green bodysuit were already well-defined muscle lines.

Kakashi's eyelids twitched as he looked at Might Guy's muscular physique.

He didn't know how Matt Kay trained, but the guy's muscles just bulged out like an inflating balloon.
