Namikaze Minato took the injured Genin and the frightened kid away.

  Now, only Sora, Uzumaki Kushina, Jiraiya, and Tsunade remained.

  Uzumaki Kushina looked at Jiraiya and Tsuh caution and distrust.

  For Uzumaki Kushina, anyone hostile to Sora or perceived as a threat to him was not a good person.

  Jiraiya dismissed the tension, but Tsunade felt a headache ing on.

  Uzumaki Kushina, as a member of her grandmother Uzumaki Mito's , was now in Konoha, the only direct representative of the Uzumaki lineage left in the vilge.

  Tsunade, who also carried Uzumaki blood, saw Kushina as family.

  Moreover, Tsunade uood why Uzumaki Kushina had e to Konoha.

  Konoha was irely protective of Kushina. The Genin kid had dared to attack her earlier with a real kunai.

  Although Tsunade was furious about the Genin's as, she still had to act carefully, as the Genin was from Konoha.

  And then, there was Sora.

  Tsunade was well aware of Sora's story. The i from back then had been a major topic of discussion.

  Uzumaki Mito had even shared her frustrations with Tsunade about how Sora, with his half-Senju, half-Uchiha lineage, was her accepted by the Uchiha or weled by Konoha vilgers.

  What surprised Tsunade now was the strong boween Sora and Uzumaki Kushina.

  Sora had been willing to cripple the limbs of two kids for Uzumaki Kushina.

  How had the two of them formed such a close retionship when Kushina had only retly arrived in Konoha? Could they have known each other before?

  As Tsunade pondered, her eyes fell on the bloodstains on the ground.

  Her pupils shrank, and her body trembled slightly. Her hemophobia was triggered.

  Notig her rea, Jiraiya quickly stepped in front of her, blog her view.

  He said, "I'll take these two little brats to see the old man. Tsunade, you should go rest."

  Tsuook several deep breaths, trying to steady her accelerated heartbeat caused by her hemophobia.

  "I'm fine. I'll go with you to see the old man."

  Knowing the identities of Uzumaki Kushina and Sora, Tsunade decided to apany them to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

  If Sora hadn't pted crippling the two kids, this situation wouldn't have escated.

  But since Sora had sidered su extreme a, Sarutobi Hiruzen would likely intervene, and Sora might face punishment.

  Seeing Tsunade's resolve, Jiraiya didn't argue. He turo Sora and Kushina, saying, "e o's go see the old man."

  Sora suddenly spoke up, "This has nothing to do with Kushina. I'll go with you."

  Before Jiraiya could respond, Uzumaki Kushina anxiously said, "No, Sora, I'll go with you!"

  She grabbed Sora's hand, looked warily at Jiraiya and Tsunade, and said, "I'm afraid someone will twist the truth in front of the Hokage.

  This isn't Sora's fault, and I have to expin it clearly to the Hokage."

  Sora sighed softly.

  If Sarutobi Hiruzen wao punish him, no matter how much Uzumaki Kushina expined, it would be futile.

  However, Sora was uned about the punishment Sarutobi Hiruzen might impose.

  As long as Sora demonstrated his value, the punishment wouldn't be severe, just as it had been in the past.

  Uzumaki Kushina wao protest further, but when she looked into Sora's eyes, she was startled. "Sora, what's wrong with your eyes?!"

  "My eyes?"

  Sora picked up a broken bde from the ground and used it to examine his refle, curious about what Kushi.

  To his surprise, he saw that he had awakehe Oomoe Sharingan.

  Earlier, when Tsunade had blown away his broken bde, Sora rexed, realizing the situation was beyond his trol. He had stopped fog on his chakra a his body feel at ease.

  At that moment, his eyes had stung, and he had instinctively closed them.

  When he reopened his eyes, he noticed his vision had sharpened, and everything around him seemed to slow down slightly.

  Because of the tension caused by Jiraiya and Tsunade's sudden appearance, he hadn't paid attention to the ge at first. Now, it was clear: he had uionally activated his Sharingan.

  Jiraiya and Tsuared at Sora's eyes, their mouths slightly agape in shobsp;

  Jiraiya asked incredulously, "Kid, how old are you?"

  "Nine years old," Sora replied.

  "What?! Only nine?!"

  Both Jiraiya and Tsunade were stunned.

  Sora found their rea odd. Why were they so shocked?

  After thinking for a moment, he uood the reason.

  In the Uchiha , Uchiha Sasuke held the record for the you activation of the Sharingan at age seven after witnessing Uchiha Itachi annihite their . The powerful mental shock triggered his Oomoe Sharingan, though he hadn't realized it at the time.

  Uchiha Itachi activated his Sharingan at age eight after losing a panion to Uchiha Obito.

  Uchiha Shisui's activation had likely occurred at a simir age.

  Uchiha Obito's Sharingan awake age 12 during a fit of anger, and he immediately developed a Two Tomoe Sharingan.

  Uchiha Madara, a prodigy, had awakened his Sharingan at 15.

  Since Sasuke, Itachi, Shisui, and Obito were not yet born, Sora might be the first known member of the Uchiha to activate the Sharingan at such a young age.

  Of course, it ossible someone else had achieved this earlier but had kept it a secret.

  Still, at nine years old, Sora had likely set a remarkable pret.

  This realization relieved Sora of his s about meeting Sarutobi Hiruzen.

  Having awakehe Sharingan, his value to Konoha had increased signifitly.

  Sora took a moment to feel his Sharingan's abilities. He noticed that maintaining the Sharingan ed chakra steadily.

  Thanks to his Senju bloodline, Sora had a siderable chakra reserve for his age.

  While the system calcuted that Sora's chakra was only one-fifth of what Kakashi could sustain with his Sharingan, Kakashi was ae Jōnin, while Sora was still a pre-graduate academy student. One-fifth of Kakashi's level likely correspoo the chakra of a in.

  Moreover, as the Sharingan was Sora's ied kekkei genkai, it didn't have the same ive effects on him as it did on Kakashi. In time, Sora's chakra reserves would only grow.

  Sora deactivated his Sharingan, cutting off the chakra supply. His eyes returo their normal bck colour.

  Jiraiya and Tsuill reeling from their shock, posed themselves and said, "Let's go."

  Sora wao reassure Uzumaki Kushina, telling her she didn't o apany him. There was no danger, and he could hahe situation alone.

  However, Uzumaki Kushina grabbed his hand, her expression resolute.

  Seeing her determination, Sora sighed aed. "Alright, let's go together."
