Uchiha Kage was not a member of the Hyūga clan, so naturally, he didn't feel any pity for them. The Uchiha clan's problems were not any less than the Hyūga clan's. At least the Hyūga clan could survive. What about the Uchiha clan?
If no changes are made, in the future, the Uchiha clan would only have Sasuke left!
Such a future is better not to have!
Beside him, Mikoto had recovered. She took the drink from Uchiha Kage's hand and chugged it down, a satisfied expression on her face. To be honest, drinking a thirst-quenching beverage after exercising was truly a pleasure.
"Actually, you didn't have to push yourself so hard!" Uchiha Kage rubbed Uchiha Mikoto's damp hair and comforted her.
With Uchiha Mikoto's ability, passing the assessment was no problem. However, physique had never been the Uchiha clan's strong suit. This time, Uchiha Mikoto had indeed used her full strength.
"I just don't want the gap between us to be too big!" Uchiha Mikoto said with a bitter smile.
She knew Kage was strong before, but she never expected him to reach a point where she couldn't catch up no matter how she chased.
But, as expected of Kage! Even in the academy, he is number one! Even the grandson of the First Hokage can't compare!
"Alright, let's train together after we go home." Seeing Uchiha Mikoto's serious expression, Uchiha Kage said with a smile.
"Mn, mn!" Uchiha Mikoto nodded repeatedly. Then, the two of them received their acceptance letters from the examiner. Without a doubt, the two were placed in the same class, which was undoubtedly the elite class. Not only Uchiha Kage and Uchiha Mikoto, but also Ino-Shika-Chō and Nawaki were placed in this class.
Even Namikaze Minato was placed here.
Uchiha Kage had been paying attention to Namikaze Minato. He found that it seemed only natural for him to enter the elite class. In that group of candidates, Namikaze Minato had finished seventh!
That is to say, even some candidates from ninja clans ended up losing to Namikaze Minato. With such results, coupled with his commoner background, it would be strange if Namikaze Minato didn't enter the elite class.
"Uchiha Kage, want to go eat together?" Just as Kage and Uchiha Mikoto were preparing to leave for home, Nawaki walked over with the future Ino-Shika-Chō, Minato, and some other brats that Uchiha Kage didn't know.
"Sure!" Uchiha Kage looked at Nawaki in surprise, then nodded slightly.
As expected of Nawaki? With this kind of charisma, he quickly gained the support of many people.
Of course, Uchiha Kage also knew that Nawaki wasn't deliberately creating a persona, nor was it because of his special status. This guy indeed had charisma.
This guy indeed inherited some of the Senju clan's traits.
No wonder Danzō wanted to get rid of Nawaki. Such a person cannot be controlled and must be destroyed. Am I right? Danzō!
"Why don't we go for a picnic!" After some thought, Uchiha Kage spoke up. "I'll go buy some ingredients. I'll do the cooking!"
While saying this, he didn't forget to glance at Akimichi Chōza next to him.
This red packet, I'm determined to get it.
Nawaki is truly a good person! Creating such good conditions for me. Don't worry, I will definitely let you live to eighteen!
"You? Can you?" Nawaki looked at Uchiha Kage suspiciously. After all, they were a group of five or six-year-old children. Normal five or six-year-old children don't know how to cook!
"A man can't say he can't!" Uchiha Kage replied without thinking.
"Hmm, that seems okay too. I can also cook some dishes. I can help out then," at this moment, Namikaze Minato stood up, rubbing his head.
As a child born a commoner, and even an orphan, he usually cooked for himself, so this was not a problem for him.
"Is that so? Then I'll trouble you. But since we're cooking, leave the ingredients to me!" After some thought, Nawaki said with some doubt.
If the food they make is too terrible, at worst, they can find someone to help cook.
One must know, Nawaki was not only the grandson of Senju Hashirama, but the current Daimyō was his maternal grandfather!
They agreed on a small park in the village as the picnic spot, and then went to prepare various ingredients. Namikaze Minato had originally intended to help Uchiha Kage cook, but just as he was about to speak, he found that something was off with Uchiha Kage!
Why did he feel that when Uchiha Kage picked up the pots and pans, the aura around him changed drastically, as if he were going to a battlefield?
"Is there anything I can help with?" Seeing this, Namikaze Minato couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
"Just chop the vegetables!" Uchiha Kage declared that today, he would conquer Konoha with his cooking skills!
Then, the scene that followed shocked everyone. Not only could Uchiha Kage cook, but his cooking techniques were more skilled than any chef they had ever seen.
Most importantly, the smell was really fragrant
