After sending Iori back home, Kei Uchiha and Aya Hyuga went to a barbecue restaurant in Wood Leaf.
This is not the first time that Kei Uchiha came to this barbecue restaurant.
The last time he came to this place was when he participated in a party of the same batch.
As a result, he took advantage of that party.
Walking into the barbecue restaurant, Kei Uchiha also found some familiar figures – Red, Anko, and Asuma are here.
They were eating, but when they noticed Kei Uchiha and Aya Hyuga, they immediately greeted them.
"Kei, Senpai!" Red said with a smile: "I haven't seen you two for a long time."
"Because I'm a little busy with work, and there are a lot of things to do." Kei Uchiha showed a gentle smile: "So I don't have much time to come out."
Kei Uchiha didn't expect to meet three old acquaintances here, two of which are from the same batch as him.
Red's attitude is very friendly, this girl is full of energy.
Anko doesn't seem so active, she just looked at Kei Uchiha with a curious face.
Asuma, on the other hand, was a little more normal. Perhaps it was because of his family's influence, but his expression was neither too enthusiastic nor too unfamiliar.
However, Kei Uchiha doesn't think it matters which one it is, Asuma's performance in the original work is not very like a very shrewd person.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to be so rebellious at the age of 17 or 18, when Wood Leaf really needed talents and ran to the Land of Fire's Daimyo and became a guardian ninja.
Of course, it's not impossible to regard this matter as an arrangement by Sandaime, after all, those guardian ninjas came up with the conclusion that there are two kinds of jade.
Some necessary surveillance is still needed, Wood Leaf is not the Sand Hidden Village.
But in order to avenge his friend, this guy finally put his life on the line, which makes people speechless.
Is it to show his ability, and at the same time foreshadowing the future of Sandaime?
Or was he really bristling with anger and didn't care anymore?
However, his actions couldn't be considered very shrewd.
Apart from the fact that his conditions were the best, whether it was the fact that he had InoShikaCho as his subordinate after he was born, everything else wasn't that great.
Kei Uchiha didn't have much interaction with this guy. They could only be considered as normal classmates.
"Qi, you've changed the Department of Security so well. It's been hard on you." Hong Xiao looked at Kei Uchiha with admiration. "Do you want to join us? We've only just begun. "
"No need. Today is a team gathering." Kei Uchiha smiled and shook his head. "Kenta has been waiting for us for a long time. We won't disturb you any further."
"Is that so?" Red seemed a little regretful, but she didn't force it. "Then let me know in advance if you have time next time. We haven't had a gathering for a while."
Kei Uchiha smiled and nodded. Then, he turned around and left with Aya Hyuga.
Aya Hyuga didn't speak the whole time. She maintained the same smile as Kei Uchiha.
It wasn't that she hadn't seen Kei Uchiha's gentle smile before. It was just that every time she saw this expression, she would find it funny.
It's really hard to imagine such an extremely cold person showing a gentle smile, and it actually looks good. Is this the effect brought about by the good looks of the Uchiha Clan?
"What's with that look?" Kei Uchiha seemed to have noticed that Aya Hyuga had been looking at him. He couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Nothing. I just feel that Kai Jun's smile isn't that real." Aya Hyuga shook her head and retracted her gaze.
"Is that so?" Kei Uchiha glanced at her and then continued. "It seems that we all have to learn from Kenta Imai."
When Kenta Imai smiled, it really gave people a good feeling.
It was just that the more they interacted with him, the more they discovered how many negative things were hidden in his smile.
This guy once made Kei Uchiha mistakenly think that he had something to do with Sai.
Or perhaps it was because he received the education of the roots that he became like this.
But thinking about it carefully, the roots wouldn't be bored.
Wasn't it a waste of resources and combat power to put a good fighter into a cannon fodder team?
Fortunately, Kei Uchiha thought this way. Otherwise, Kenta Imai might really be in trouble.
The facts also proved that his guess was right. Instead, it gave him a bigger surprise.
This guy wasn't a root at all. He was an orphan of the Thousand-Hand Clan.
Putting away their smiles, the two of them silently walked toward the reserved table. Soon, they saw Kenta Imai sitting there.
Kenta Imai had already prepared the things and seemed to be waiting for the two of them.
"It seems that you came quite early." Kei Uchiha sat down. "Are you done with the handover?"
"Of course. I dare not disobey the rules set by the department head." Kenta Imai sighed. "After all, I am not Rinkun. I still need to report to the Department of Security every day."
Kenta Imai's words were very interesting. Although he was stating the truth, everyone could tell that there was a hint of sarcasm in his words.
Aya Hyuga's identity was written in the Department of Security's Third Division.
But in reality, other than spending the night at the Department of Security and sometimes going home, she was rarely seen in the Department of Security.
Of course, Kenta Imai knew what was going on. He just deliberately said that.
"Don't spout sarcasm." Kei Uchiha shook his head. "Let's talk about something practical. I don't think we came here just to eat with you."
"It seems the department head knows what I am here for." Kenta Imai was not surprised by Kei Uchiha's words.
After considering it for a moment, he nodded his head. "All right. However, before that, I need to thank the department head. If it weren't for that operation, I would not have known that such a terrible thing had happened."
As Kenta Imai said that, he could not help but turn his gaze toward Aya Hyuga.
He was uncertain how close the relationship between Kei Uchiha and this woman was.
After all, they were also conducting some experiments. Experiments that were not disclosed at all.
It was hard to say whether or not this experiment had eased the tension between them.
However, he still needed to be careful. If what he said was something that Aya Hyuga did not know …
And if Kei Uchiha didn't want this woman to know, then things would be a bit troublesome.
"No need to thank me. After all, it was the First Generation Hokage."
Kei Uchiha turned his head and looked at Aya Hyuga. Then he said indifferently. "Speaking of which, did you admit your identity?"
"What's the use of not admitting it? I'm afraid the department head has already thought of it. "Kenta Imai helplessly rubbed his eyebrows.
It seems that this woman really gained Kei Uchiha's trust. Even if it was temporary.
But soon, Kenta Imai became serious. His face was serious. He no longer showed that disgusting smile.
"Strictly speaking, I am indeed from the Senshou clan. My family has the surname Senshou. My elders also have the surname Senshou."
Kei Uchiha nodded. He looked calm. But in his heart, he couldn't help but sigh. He guessed it right.
His own guess and someone else's confirmation were two different concepts. Even if Kei Uchiha's guess was correct, if someone didn't admit it, there was nothing he could do.
On the other hand, Hyuga Aya was much more honest, although Uchiha Keiji had told her about it before coming here, she really didn't expect that the composition of her last team would be so complicated.
"Orochimaru's report made you feel worried and extremely angry, didn't you?" Kuroto asked.
Kei Uchiha put one hand on the table and leaned his head on it. "No need to thank me. You came to me, which means you're ready. Let's not talk about empty words."
"Yes." Kenta Imai nodded, then single-handedly received a seal.
Soon, some secret runes appeared around their table.
"It's just muted." After everything was done, Kenta Imai said slowly.
"I hope we can cooperate more deeply. I didn't think you could do it.
First, I didn't believe you could succeed. Second, if you succeeded, the Fourth Sama will be the Third Sama's puppet.
But since you succeeded in the first task, you'll be more prepared for the second task. I believe you can do it too. "
"So?" Kei Uchiha found it funny.
He didn't think he could do it, but the Fourth Sama seemed to have given him a lot of confidence.
"So I hope to cooperate more deeply." Kenta Imai's expression became serious.
"If Ring-Kun can do it, so can I. Although I'm not as valuable as Ring-Kun, I can still do a lot of things. But before that … "
"You want to hear my price?" Kei Uchiha didn't wait for him to finish and interrupted him.
It wasn't hard to guess what this guy was thinking. This guy must have made some preparations, right?
Kei Uchiha looked at him quietly. At the same time, he was thinking about Kenta Imai's bottom line, or the Thousand-Hand Clan's bottom line.
In fact, if he thought about it seriously, the Thousand-Hand Clan probably hated the Third Sama quite a bit.
Moreover, they probably wanted to regain their former status.
Power needs to be checked and balanced, this is something that Uchiha Ki has never denied.
But how they played, he could influence it to a large extent.
After thinking for a while, Kei Uchiha said calmly, "You want to rebuild the Thousand-Hand Clan and get your own power?"
"Although I want to say that I don't care, my family doesn't think so." Kenta Imai sighed, "Yes, that is our goal."
"If I let the Department of Security open a fourth division …" Kei Uchiha said with a smile.
But seeing that Kenta Imai immediately opened his mouth, Kei Uchiha continued, "Don't worry, wait for me to finish. In addition to the fourth division, I also want to know your experience in dealing with the Sharingan.
Also, how much influence does the Thousand-Hand Clan have left? "
"If you want to form a fourth division, I will find a way to provide a certain number of places." Kenta Imai also said calmly.
"The experience of dealing with the Sharingan was left by the Second Sama Hokage-Sama, I can write it to you.
As for influence, many small families still maintain contact with us, including those that Uchiha has won over. "
Uchiha actually won over a family that has a close relationship with the Thousand-Hand Clan?
This kind of mistake is really interesting, but who knows what the hell the current Thousand-Hand Clan is like?
Shaking his head, Kei Uchiha continued, "Very well, enough influence means enough value.
Finally, I want to drive Orochimaru out of Wood Leaf, because I need his experiment report.
Don't get me wrong, I obtained something similar to the Hashirama Cells, but it didn't come from Orochimaru, I can show you some of my trophies to prove it. "
"But, in the matter of driving Orochimaru out, how much can you do?"
