Uchiha Izuna's face turned pale. There was actually something in this ninja world that I do not understand. Damn it. Could it be that the ninja world has already developed to this extent.
Uchiha Madara patted his shoulder and said helplessly, "I estimate this matter is related to our grandson. Didn't that old man just say to let us read books. Let us go find a bookstore."
Madara did not like reading books. But he remembered that Izuna seemed to have liked reading all kinds of ancient books since childhood, researching ninjutsu, learning battle tactics and business methods. He was proficient in everything. Having suffered a setback in Konoha today, Madara estimated that Izuna must definitely figure out what exactly was going on.
Uchiha Izuna nodded, his face serious. He absolutely would not allow anyone to be more knowledgeable than him. If there was, then he would first learn all of that person's things. Then improve upon his foundation.
Thinking of this, Izuna pulled Madara and headed towards the bookstore. Once inside, he found the layout inside to be bright, magnificent, and imposing.
Different from the clan's library, most of the books here were some financial daily newspapers, breakthroughs in Konoha's scientific research fields, The First Half of Uchiha Ryun's Life (with a portrait of him attached).
Izuna was stunned. His grandson seemed to be very popular. Because the area where the book The First Half of Uchiha Ryun's Life was placed was crowded with people. There were people of all age groups. But, more than 70 percent were women.
"Izuna, I remember you seemed to be very popular with girls before too. But except for that one time after getting drunk, and that with a female clansmember, you never again..." Madara said with a smile.
Izuna however stopped his brother. "Brother, that was an accident. And it is all in the past now."
Madara shook his head. "That was not an accident. It was fate. If you did not leave behind a bloodline, then there would not be a son. And even more, there would not be such a grandson."
Izuna fell silent. He nodded and sighed. "Perhaps it is so. Alright, big brother, let us still take a look at the financial daily newspapers and some scientific research books."
Madara nodded. "Read here, or take away?"
Izuna rubbed his chin, then noticed there were stools in the bookstore. And on them were ninjas or villagers reading books there.
He was somewhat surprised, so he said, "Big brother, I want to go read there." After saying this, Izuna pointed to the reading area.
Madara looked over. His powerful mental energy probed the chakra levels of the people there. The result was that they were all very average. After that, he felt relieved and said, "Good, you go read there then. I will go buy some food for you."
"What do you want to eat?" Madara asked.
"Dango. Tri-color dango. And also, inari sushi. I want every flavor." After saying this, Izuna swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Madara nodded. "I know. I will come pick you up later."
After saying this, Madara gently opened the bookstore door, then gently closed it. If the door had a mouth, it would probably declare to its peers, "You are all weak. Uchiha Madara, have you heard of him. He has to handle this door with care."
"Do you understand the gold content of a bookstore door?"
Izuna first took out the financial daily newspaper. He started reading from the very first edition. His pupils lit up. He thought, 'So this is GDP. The final result of the production activities of all permanent units in a country or a village within a certain period.'
'Simply put, GDP is the core indicator that measures the economic scale and growth rate of a country or village.'
Well said. His big grandson was a genius. These things did not have such detailed explanations before.
Izuna completely immersed himself in reading. But he did not discover that the male ninja beside him had his pupils constrict. It was Uchiha Hirotomo.
He rubbed his eyes and looked at Izuna. He wanted to speak but stopped. But seeing how seriously he was reading, he felt it was not good to disturb him. So he sighed and thought, 'Perhaps, it is just that they look alike.'
The Sharingan could see through all disguises and transformation techniques. This was a passive ability. Even without activating the eye, it was a passive they possessed.
Hirotomo thought, ever since Uchiha Ryun appeared out of nowhere, he had started doing his homework. This included翻阅 Uchiha Madara's scrolls, Uchiha Izuna's scrolls.
And he had also seen their portraits. Even Uchiha Tajima's portrait, he had seen it.
And the appearance of the person in front of him was exactly the same as the legendary ninja Uchiha Izuna. He was somewhat shocked. But he also felt too embarrassed to interrupt someone reading.
He nodded. He was a steady and studious good child. If only every person of the Uchiha clan could be like this.
He thought this in his heart. After that, he picked up a book and started reading.
The Uchiha clan members who possessed the Sharingan basically all had one talent. That was photographic memory. Izuna naturally also had this basic ability.
In a short while, he had memorized all the content and comprehended it. He slowly let out a breath. He stretched. Hirotomo always felt he had seen this appearance somewhere before.
Izuna yawned. After that, he looked beside him. He found a middle-aged Uchiha sitting next to him. He had a book in his hand.
He could not help but feel somewhat curious. Other than him and Ryun, there was actually another Uchiha who liked reading.
"Um, uncle, may I ask, what book are you reading?" Izuna asked curiously.
"This book, it records the entire process of Uchiha Ryun leading Konoha Village in external campaigns." Hirotomo said with a smile.
Izuna's eyebrows raised. He was instantly interested. He tapped Hirotomo's arm. "Uncle, could you lend it to me to read."
His eyes carried a thirst for knowledge and a desire to know about the achievements of his big grandson Uchiha Ryun. What kind of person was he, to be able to make the Uchiha be completely accepted by Konoha. Even to the point of letting Ryun control Konoha's military.
Hirotomo nodded. He was happy that someone was willing to learn about the deeds of their Uchiha clan's spiritual leader.
So he handed the book The First Half of Uchiha Ryun's Life to Izuna. Izuna said thank you with a smile. After that, he carefully opened the first page.
Uchiha Ryun, male, eighteen years old, Konoha genin. At that time, he was Tsunade's confidant on the Land of Rain battlefield. Later, because his thinking was comprehensive and his fighting style was unique, he was selected as temporary commander...
This book recorded Ryun's life, experiences, his interests and hobbies, and the entire process of all major battles.
The more Izuna read, the more fascinated he became. The more he read, the more surprised he was. How did Ryun think of such tactics. He found many could be used to deal with the Senju clan.
His big grandson was really deep and unfathomable. He looked like such an unreliable person. No, with that face, he could not be called unreliable.
Ryun's face was seventy percent similar to Madara's. Therefore, he could not say Ryun was unreliable. Wasn't that equal to saying his big brother was unreliable. Not acceptable, not acceptable.
