"My name is Uchiha Fuyu, a dead last of the Uchiha Clan."
Uchiha Fuyu turned his head to look at Uzumaki Kushina, smiling with narrowed eyes.
"Uchiha Fuyu?"
"A dead last of the Uchiha Clan?"
Uzumaki Kushina was slightly startled. How could such a powerful person be a dead last?
These people, have they perhaps, misinterpreted what a dead last is?
"I, I Uzumaki Kushina, am very happy to meet you."
Uzumaki Kushina looked at Uchiha Fuyu and shouted loudly.
"Ding! Detecting that the girl's favorability towards the host has reached ninety points. The Family Revitalization System is activating...!"
"Ding! Binding successful. Congratulations, host, on becoming the first owner of the Family Revitalization System. It's a pleasure to serve you."
"Ding! Congratulations, host, on receiving a Newbie big gift package. It has been stored in the system inventory. Please claim it yourself."
Just then, the system's voice appeared in Uchiha Fuyu's mind.
"What???"
"Family Revitalization System?"
Uchiha Fuyu was inwardly horrified, his entire body froze, stunned on the spot.
"Sixteen years, System, do you know how I've lived through it?"
"Why the hell didn't you appear sooner?"
After recovering, Uchiha Fuyu silently cursed.
"Ding! The host did not activate the trigger condition, so the system could not be bound. The system's trigger requires special conditions. Who told the host not to find a girlfriend for sixteen years?"
"Uchiha Itachi, on the other hand, has been the center of attention since he was a child, loved by everyone, blooming wherever he goes. Even wearing cat ears makes girls nosebleed. The host, on the other hand, has a perpetually stern face, keeping everyone at a distance, so naturally, the awakening was slow."
The system's voice replied.
"...!"
"How was I supposed to know your awakening conditions? You never said anything!"
Uchiha Fuyu was a bit speechless. You didn't say anything, how was I supposed to know?
"But, Uzumaki Kushina's favorability towards me reached ninety points?"
"It seems she truly is an unloved woman, bullied since childhood. It's already impressive that she hasn't lost herself amidst countless people's dislike."
"Later, it was because Minato saved her and complimented her hair that she fell in love with Minato."
"Now it's become me...!"
Uchiha Fuyu couldn't help but think to himself, shaking his head.
"Kushina, a very beautiful name."
"It's a pleasure to meet you."
"In the future, you should speak out loudly and be confident in yourself."
"I need to go train. See you next time."
Uchiha Fuyu chuckled softly at Uzumaki Kushina, then turned and left. He still had to train and strengthen his abilities.
He also wanted to see what the Newbie big gift package from the system contained. He had no time to flirt here.
Since the favorability was up, he would just run.
"If I became Naruto's father, I wonder what kind of scene that would be?"
"Uchiha Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, two cousins."
"That would indeed be quite interesting."
Uchiha Fuyu chuckled softly, unable to help but think to himself.
"Can I, can I train with you?"
Uzumaki Kushina mustered her courage and ran forward, asking Uchiha Fuyu.
It was the first time someone didn't dislike her hair, and she couldn't help but want to get closer to him.
After all, everyone else mocked her, seemingly not wanting to see her. Only by Uchiha Fuyu's side could she feel a glimmer of comfort.
"Don't you have school?"
Uchiha Fuyu was slightly startled.
"School is out today."
"I had nothing to do, so I came here to enjoy the scenery."
Uzumaki Kushina smiled with narrowed eyes.
"Alright then."
"Your speed is too slow."
"Follow me!"
Uchiha Fuyu nodded, glanced at Minato Namikaze in a tree branch, then, with a deep frown at the other three locations, he directly picked up Uzumaki Kushina and vanished from the spot.
"Did he leave?"
Minato Namikaze felt a little lost. He had some affection for Uzumaki Kushina, but he wouldn't easily approach her. Seeing her taken away by Uchiha Fuyu, he felt somewhat disappointed.
"Let's go back for now!"
Minato Namikaze shook his head. Fortunately, it was just puppy love, not the kind of love that drives one to desperation.
"Someone from the Uchiha Clan took the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. What should we do?"
"Hokage-sama said that no one should know she has the Nine-Tailed inside her."
"We'll just follow secretly. Uchiha Fuyu is nothing more than an elite Chunin."
Three Anbu members constantly guarded Uzumaki Kushina, but unless there was a life-threatening danger, they wouldn't intervene. They merely followed from a distance... "Fuyu-elder brother, do you not mind that I'm an outsider?"
"I'm not from Konoha Village. I was brought back from outside."
Uzumaki Kushina looked at Uchiha Fuyu, her pupils trembling slightly.
"An outsider?"
"What does that matter?"
"We're not enemies, are we?"
"And you're in Konoha now, and I'm in Konoha, so we're our own people."
"Since that's the case, then we're comrades."
Uchiha Fuyu smiled faintly, his eyes full of tenderness.
Uchiha Fuyu wasn't without thoughts about Uzumaki Kushina. When angry, she was very volatile, but often, she was very gentle.
Besides, Uzumaki Kushina was a great beauty. Who doesn't like beautiful women?
"Fuyu-elder brother, thank you."
Uzumaki Kushina's face was flushed, appearing a little shy.
"We've arrived."
After an unknown amount of time, Uchiha Fuyu, holding Uzumaki Kushina, arrived at a dense forest and landed on the ground.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Uchiha Fuyu felt the scene shift, and he found himself in a sewer, where a giant spherical object appeared before him, with a massive Nine-Tailed Fox bound by Chakra chains.
The Nine-Tailed Fox was impaled with wooden stakes, appearing to be in great pain.
"Roar...!"
The Nine-Tailed Fox roared at Uchiha Fuyu as he entered.
"This? How did I get here?"
"This is the Nine-Tailed?"
"Such terrifying power?"
"In front of it, my pitiful Chakra is practically no different from having none at all?"
Uchiha Fuyu was inwardly horrified. He hadn't expected to suddenly appear within the seal, and he felt a sense of shock.
"Kid, let me out, and I'll give you endless power."
The Nine-Tailed Fox looked at Uchiha Fuyu, its mouth curving upwards, and a stream of red Chakra flowed out, surging into Uchiha Fuyu's body.
"dead last."
"dead last."
"Disappear, you dead last."
"No one will acknowledge you, no one will acknowledge you...!"
Suddenly, a powerful force of hatred surged into Uchiha Fuyu's mind, making him face countless taunts and insults.
"All of you, shut up."
"Ah...!"
Uchiha Fuyu roared, his sixteen years of suppressed anger erupting in a skyward shout.
"Buzz...!"
Suddenly, Uchiha Fuyu felt an extremely cold Chakra appear in his mind, filling his entire brain. A tomoe phantom appeared in his pupils, spinning wildly.
Eventually, the phantom solidified, revealing one tomoe. The spinning didn't stop, then two tomoe, then three tomoe.
Guided by the Nine-Tailed Fox's power of hatred, Uchiha Fuyu's inner fury intensified, drawing out his even greater rage and hatred, which ultimately transformed into his power, awakening his Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
"Sharingan?"
"Damn Sharingan."
"Roar...!"
The Nine-Tailed Fox looked at Uchiha Fuyu's Sharingan, its pupils contracting, recalling the fear of being controlled by Uchiha Madara, and roared.
"Is this the Sharingan?"
"I never thought, Nine-Tailed, that you wanted me to help you open the seal, but instead, you accidentally awakened my Three-Tomoe Sharingan?"
"Is this the power of the Sharingan?"
"Three tomoe are enough to block your Chakra's erosion."
"Hehe...!"
"Nine-Tailed, it seems, you're not that strong after all?"
Uchiha Fuyu directly devoured the Nine-Tailed Fox's Chakra, opening his crimson eyes and staring at the Nine-Tailed Fox before him, his eyes full of mockery.
"Roar...!"
The Nine-Tailed Fox was incredibly furious, never imagining that one day it would be mocked by a weak little brat, but its body couldn't move at all, only able to roar in futility.
It was currently bound hand and foot, not as comfortable as when it was inside Naruto.
"Nine-Tailed, do you want to get out?"
Uchiha Fuyu looked at the Nine-Tailed Fox, a slight smile on his face.
"You can still let me out?"
The Nine-Tailed Fox frowned, speaking coldly, its face full of distrust towards Uchiha Fuyu.
"If you want others to let you out, you have to try to trust others."
"And make good friends with humans."
"If you treat others as friends, only then can others treat you as friends."
"Friendships are mutual, just like when the Six Paths Sage created you."
"Why didn't he divide you into a hundred parts, a thousand parts, but only nine?"
"Because he worried that if your power was too weak, you would be captured by others, and if you were too strong, you would destroy the world."
"So he gave you enough power, believing that one day, humans and you Tailed Beasts could live in peace."
Uchiha Fuyu smiled faintly and walked forward.
At first, there was still some fear of this enormous Chakra.
But after awakening his Three-Tomoe Sharingan, he no longer feared the Nine-Tailed Fox's aura.
Not to mention, the current Nine-Tailed Fox was just a Nine-Tailed Fox bound hand and foot, completely powerless to resist.
If the Nine-Tailed Fox had truly appeared before Uchiha Fuyu, he wouldn't have had time to run.
He didn't have the Mangekyo Sharingan, so he couldn't control the Nine-Tailed Fox. He couldn't defeat it, nor could he control it. Not running would be seeking death!
"How do you know the Six Paths Sage?"
The Nine-Tailed Fox frowned, surprised that Uchiha Fuyu actually knew the Six Paths Sage.
"Our Uchiha Clan has some records within our clan."
"However, if you truly want to get out, if you want freedom, you must make friends with humans."
"Because your power is immense, it brings fear to humans, and humans can only seal you."
"But I believe that one day, you will find your friends."
"You can also try to be friends with Kushina. She is a kind girl."
"After all, only when the Nine-Tailed Fox and the Jinchuriki are in sync can they achieve perfect Tailed Beast Mode."
Uchiha Fuyu smiled faintly, explaining to the Nine-Tailed Fox.
