Naruto: Starting with Tsunade-san

For this reason, he sacrificed the entire forest, and it was a significant sacrifice.

In the end, if that really happened, knowing Tsunade's nature, if she discovered his actions, she probably wouldn't kill him, but she might beat him until he was completely incapacitated and bedridden for life.

At this thought, a sad expression appeared on Tōshirō's face.

But this was something unavoidable; I'm doing this for the family...

When he realized this, he just needed to find the right way to solve the problem.

But the problem was: how could he get close to Tsunade?

Don't be fooled by the fact that they are classmates now; it's not easy to get close to Tsunade.

Who knows if there are ninjas secretly protecting Tsunade, and if they see him getting too close, they might think he has bad intentions, perhaps sent by the Uchiha clan to use his charm as a means to ensnare her.

And if the higher-ups found out about it, they might look for an opportunity to secretly eliminate him one day.

This wasn't just an exaggerated warning from Tōshirō, it was a reality.

Think about the fate of Tsunade's brother and her friend, then you know the answer.

Both died in a short period, which seems strange.

Both had ambitions to become Hokage and change the village, and with Tsunade's influence, they had a great chance of achieving that.

Following this logic, who benefits the most from this?

The answer: the Third Hokage and his family.

We can't talk about the integrity of the Third, but certainly, his family members might exploit his reputation for their interests.

Tōshirō still remembered the story about "Saratobi 3000."

The marriage between the Senju and Uchiha clans is the last thing those upper echelon groups want.

If the two clans united, who knows what kind of monster might emerge? Then, they wouldn't leave any room for the other families.

There was just a corridor between Tōshirō and Tsunade, and that's why, when Tōshirō was watching Tsunade, Tsunade quickly noticed.

When Tsunade saw Tōshirō watching her with a sad expression, she curiously asked, "Is there something on my face?"

"Nothing, Tsunade-san is wonderful!"

Tōshirō said as he touched his big conscience.

He decided that until he gained Kage-level strength, he wouldn't make any bold moves towards Tsunade, but would maintain a normal relationship as friends.

Also, because of his thoughts from his previous life, he didn't dare venture down this path.

"It seems so fake..."

"I just think that someone like you, with great ambition, deserves respect."

Tsunade thought for a moment: "I think you're from the Uchiha..."

"Tōshirō."

"You seem different from the other Uchiha."

The Senju and Uchiha clans have a long history, and Tsunade knew well about the Uchiha.

Most people see them as arrogant and unsocial.

But Tōshirō, with his indifferent personality and relaxed attitude, was completely different from the traditional image.

"Is it because of my unique beauty?"

Tōshirō smiled widely.

"In arrogance, you are definitely unique."

"I am a peaceful person, I hate fighting, and I prefer a quiet life like plants."

Tōshirō understood that standing out brings winds that might topple him.

If a person stands out too much, they seem out of sync with those around them, even if they are humble, they will always be considered to have hidden intentions.

Adding the political identity of the Uchiha clan, it's hard for him not to be targeted. Until he grows up and becomes strong, he needs to be cautious.

From the first impression, Tsunade didn't have a good opinion of Tōshirō, so she firmly said, "I think you're just lazy."

"What? I didn't think I had hidden it well and you managed to discover it."

Tōshirō said, adopting the stance that his laziness is a point that can't be used against him.

Tōshirō understood the importance of the first impression.

But due to his identity as a member of the Uchiha clan, he couldn't get close to Tsunade in this way, so he had to find another way.

As they say: "Conflict is conflict, and even indifference is a kind of conflict."

In the same way: "Chasing is chasing, and even pretending not to chase is chasing."

After that, they didn't talk much. Tōshirō had important matters to attend to, he needed sleep, as he was very tired.

Happy moments always pass quickly, and soon it was time to leave school. When the "class over" bell rang, the students quickly left the door, leaving the classroom empty.

The teacher looked at Tōshirō, who was deeply asleep, and shook his head. Young people who don't make an effort will regret it when they grow up.

The teacher didn't have positive feelings towards the Uchiha clan, but as long as Tōshirōdidn't disturb others, he ignored him. Not paying attention in class is his loss.

After the students left shortly, Tōshirō slowly woke up, realizing he had slept longer than expected. He wiped the corner of his mouth from drool and left the classroom.

As he left the school, the sky was pink, and Tōshirō walked alone.

Two men passed by him, one stopped and looked at the departing Tōshirō thoughtfully: "Isn't that Tōshirō from your family? I haven't seen him in a long time, how is he?"

The other man shook his head.

Uchiha Tōshirō, who possesses the dual Kekkei Genkai "Ice Release" and "Sharingan," was hoped to have a bright future, but an incident turned all that to ashes.

Tōshirō lost his parents at birth and was raised by his grandmother. But due to a shortage of soldiers on the front lines, his grandmother, who had returned from retirement, was called back and killed in battle.

When Tōshirō learned of the news, he completely collapsed, fell seriously ill, and after recovering, isolated himself from everyone and started living a worthless life.

To prevent this promising boy from continuing down this destructive path, his family decided to send him to the Ninja Academy, hoping he would find solace in the friendship of his peers.

Upon returning home, Tōshirō quietly closed the door, bent down, and gently lifted his mat to reveal a thin layer of white powder. If anyone stepped on this mat, they would leave a trace.

After a careful inspection, Tōshirō sighed in relief. It seemed no one had entered his room. He carefully replaced the mat and went to the window to check the thick dust, looking for any footprints.

Ninjas don't like using the front doors, so focusing on windows is essential too. To not miss any clue, Tōshirō closed his left eye, pressed his hand on the right side of his face, and gathered chakra in his eye, making his Sharingan appear clearly.

This is the inheritance of the Uchiha clan, the Sharingan, which awakened when he learned of his grandmother's death. He hadn't reported this to his family but hid his power.

He had the Sharingan since he was five years old, which is considered an early achievement.

It seemed that the higher-ups of Konoha had a pathological fear of the Sharingan, so revealing this ability might bring him unwanted troubles.

After confirming no one had entered his home, Tōshirō started training.

The reason behind Tōshirō's fatigue in the morning was that he was building a certain image, but he was indeed tired.

His lifestyle was different from others; he slept during the day and trained at night.

At the Ninja Academy, he learned very little, so Tōshirō slept during lessons as much as possible.

When he got tired from training, he rested, read his late grandmother's training notes, and then resumed training when he regained energy, and so on.

And the next day, when dawn broke...

Tōshirō had trained all night and was very exhausted. He told himself: "I'm really tired, I'll train a bit more, then take a shower and go to school..."

He gathered his thumbs pointing upward, placed his left thumb over his right thumb, and took a certain seal position, closing his eyes to focus his chakra.

Suddenly, Tōshirō felt a strange sensation in his chest, a cold and gentle feeling. He slowly opened his eyes, looked at the block of ice in his hand, and couldn't suppress the overwhelming joy that appeared in his eyes.
