Within the Uchiha territory.
After Itachi received Kawasaki's message.
Through the reverse novel skirt (3) psychic technique, Kawasaki is summoned back from Otogakure.
Kawasaki had just returned to his clan when he heard the news that Tsunade was about to arrive.
"What a life of toil."
Kawasaki clicked his tongue in admiration, then gathered some Uchiha clan members for a brief rehearsal.
Despite being treated rather rudely by Kawasaki in the Land of Iron, Tsunade has come to serve as a medical advisor.
With so many clansmen present, we must show the appropriate respect.
Soon after, Tsunade arrived.
Led by Kawasaki, a group of Uchiha elites lined up in two rows.
When Tsunade appeared, both rows of Uchiha bowed and greeted her: "Welcome, Lady Tsunade."
Tsunade was taken aback. Although the etiquette was strange, she quickly realized what was going on.
After all, he was of noble status and had seen all kinds of situations.
She just hadn't expected Kawasaki to give her so much face.
Tsunade coughed, straightened her posture, and slowly walked towards Kawasaki.
Silent behind him also straightened up unconsciously.
Tsunade weaved through the crowd and arrived at the Uchiha gate, where Kawasaki had been waiting for some time...
Chapter 101 The Prodigal Tsunade! The Secret of the Kaleidoscope! Danzo's Hands!
"Welcome, Lady Tsunade, to the Uchiha clan. Your presence greatly enhances our clan's prestige."
Tsunade pinched the bridge of her nose: "Alright, Kawasaki, I appreciate your kindness, but there's no need for this. I'm not used to it."
Kawasaki chuckled. Although he was the one who funded it, the Uchiha clan was present, and he had to save face for Tsunade.
"Then please come in, Lady Tsunade."
"The clan has prepared a welcome feast for you."
Kawasaki had Keimyo lead the way, while he stood beside Shizune.
Tsunade noticed that the Uchiha's current territory was very simply built, without any unnecessary decorations.
All the accommodations were almost identical.
It feels somewhat novel, because the larger the ninja clan (1001), the more demanding their environmental requirements become.
Mountain views, water features, and vegetation—it has it all.
This is how you show off the grandeur of a large family.
Tsunade had visited the Uchiha's former territory, and it was built in that same style.
In the Uchiha territory today, everything seems to be kept simple, with nothing of any use.
Just as Tsunade was surveying the layout of the Uchiha territory.
Kawasaki quietly fell two steps behind and approached Mute.
"Jingyin, have you spent all the money I gave you last time?"
Shizune shook her head vigorously: "The money disappeared three days after Lord Kawasaki left."
Kawasaki's face darkened. Tsunade was indeed like that; she wouldn't stop until she had lost all her money.
How could the money for silence have vanished? It's obvious that Tsunade took it and used it.
That being said, it's not necessarily a bad thing that Tsunade loves gambling so much, after all, the Uchiha clan is quite wealthy these days.
This is a good opportunity to take advantage of.
Tsunade stepped into the reception room and saw a round table in the center.
There was also a turntable-like piece of glass embedded in the table.
Fugaku Uchiha and Mikoto Uchiha stood there, with Itachi beside them.
The arrangement was both formal and friendly. Fugaku turned to look at Tsunade when he heard the voice.
As a medical ninja, Tsunade's first reaction was to examine Fugaku's eyes.
However, Fugaku's eyes remained closed at this moment.
After leading everyone into the house, Qiming withdrew and closed the door behind him.
"Fugaku, Lady Tsunade has arrived."
Fugaku has keen senses; even though he is blind, he can roughly determine the direction.
He smiled in Tsunade's direction and said, "Welcome, Lady Tsunade, to the Uchiha clan. Please have a seat."
Tsunade didn't stand on ceremony and naturally sat down.
Having not seen Fugaku for many years, she asked with concern, "Fugaku, what happened to your eyes?"
Fugaku spoke calmly and chuckled lightly: "I'm sorry to have troubled you, Lady Tsunade. There was a traitor within the clan, and we were ambushed. He can't see us now."
Tsunade had already heard about the major events in Konoha during her return journey; the news had spread like wildfire.
Many people are still discussing Obito's bounty: 300 million, that's quite a lot.
If it weren't for the time-space ninjutsu leaving her helpless, she probably would have been tempted.
Kawasaki introduced Mikoto and Itachi, who had met Tsunade in their younger days, and they seemed quite at ease with it.
Sasuke didn't come; the matter they were about to discuss was not suitable for children to hear.
Within the Uchiha territory.
After everyone was seated, Kawasaki began to introduce the dishes on the table to Tsunade.
"Tsunade, you've come from afar. To show my hospitality, I've specially prepared all of this. I guarantee you've never tasted anything like it before."
"This is called Clear Broth Cabbage."
Tsunade looked in the direction she was being directed to and saw a white porcelain bowl filled with the most ordinary cabbage.
Tsunade was puzzled; what was so special about this that it needed to be explained?
Seeing Tsunade's puzzled expression, Kawasaki chuckled and said, "Tsunade, you'll know once you try it."
Tsunade picked up a piece of cabbage and tasted it. A rich but not greasy aroma spread in her mouth. The soup was fresh and the cabbage was tender, making it refreshing and delicious.
Tsunade's eyes lit up as she ate.
She had traveled all over the ninja world and visited all the major ninja clans, but these dishes were truly a first for her.
"Well, not bad, not bad."
As Tsunade ate, Kawasaki introduced the other dishes: "This is braised pigeon, stewed shredded tofu, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall..."
In his previous life, Kawasaki worked in culinary training, and he roughly remembered these dishes.
Several of the Uchiha clan's chefs were personally trained by him.
Although his culinary skills were mediocre in his original world, they were already quite impressive in this alien world lacking culinary traditions.
Tsunade enjoyed the meal, and the atmosphere gradually became more harmonious.
As everyone ate and chatted, Tsunade heard a lot from Kawasaki about Obito's past.
There are also the injustices suffered by the Uchiha clan over the years, the reasons behind these injustices, and those who condoned them.
Tsunade frowned as she listened.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Kawasaki changed the subject and offered Tsunade a drink.
Since that incident, Tsunade has become addicted to gambling and drinking.
Kawasaki didn't serve much alcohol when he came to the Uchiha Clan to discuss serious matters.
Everyone was just going through the motions.
Although Tsunade didn't drink to her heart's content, she was, after all, a guest.
We can't drink as freely as we usually do.
As the dinner was drawing to a close, Fugaku prepared to take his leave.
My purpose in accompanying her on this trip is to show respect for Tsunade. After all, how can we neglect someone who has been invited to serve as a medical advisor?
Besides, Tsunade holds a prestigious position, so giving her face is always the right thing to do.
"Fugaku, wait a moment, let me see your eyes."
Since Tsunade had agreed to come, she naturally wouldn't try to hide it.
Of course, since the Uchiha clan gave her so much face, she would naturally do her best to help them.
Fugaku stopped in his tracks, fully aware of the situation, but how could he refuse Tsunade's kindness?
Moreover, Kawasaki and Fugaku had already discussed and agreed on a comprehensive plan to bring Tsunade back.
For a master like Tsunade, examining the eyes requires no instruments.
She asked Fugaku to sit down and opened her eyes.
Tsunade observed for a moment, a flash of light appeared on her hand, and after several tests, she shook her head regretfully.
"Fugaku, this doesn't seem like an injury; it's more like natural aging causing vision loss."
After examining him, Tsunade discovered that Fugaku's eyes had gone blind naturally, like those of a seventy or eighty-year-old, rather than from injury.
Fugaku nodded and revealed a secret: "When the Mangekyou Sharingan power of our Uchiha clan is exhausted, they will go blind."
This time it was Tsunade's turn to be surprised. What did that mean?
So that's how you tell me the secret of the kaleidoscope?
Keep in mind that in this world, Kakashi had never even experienced the Mangekyou Sharingan before Obito took his eyes.
Therefore, the fact that using a kaleidoscope can lead to decreased eyesight remained unknown to the outside world.
