"Uchiha Genya!"
Genya was just about to leave when Kakashi called out to him. He still had a few things he wanted to say.
"Is there sothing else? I'm tired!" Genya replied impatiently. He had already given Kakashi a hint, and he couldn't believe that after all these years, Kakashi hadn't figured it out.
Genya didn't want to talk too much with Kakashi. Maybe... the Third Hokage was watching them through the crystal ball right now.
He didn't want to reveal too much just yet.
"I don't know what you're thinking, but you can't get too close to Naruto right now. If you do, the Uchiha clan could face a great disaster!" Kakashi said seriously. He didn't want to continue testing Genya.
Actually, ever since his father passed away, Kakashi had been wondering if his father had crossed soone's path. But after Genya said those words just now, everything beca clear to Kakashi. He had seen the signs long ago but didn't want to admit it.
He had been with the Third Hokage for a long ti now, and if the Third's plans failed, Kakashi knew he would take so drastic asures. But the Third always stood for the greater good.
The reason Kakashi was warning Genya was to let him— or the Uchiha clan behind him— know to be cautious. And of course, Genya should also stay away from Naruto.
"I'll follow your advice. As long as Naruto doesn't seek out, I won't make myself visible to him," Genya replied, finally nodding seriously after observing Kakashi.
It seed Kakashi had really co to understand sothing.
"Now that we've said what needed to be said, I'll take my leave!" Genya didn't give Kakashi another chance to speak and turned to walk away.
Kakashi watched Genya's retreating figure, lost in thought.
"Luckily, this kid hasn't awakened the Sharingan... He's just an anomaly in the Uchiha clan. Otherwise, Konoha might be in for a major upheaval!" Kakashi murmured softly to himself. It was just a brief conversation, but Genya had already shown so hints of his potential.
Even Kakashi found it hard to handle. Was this really the mind of a child?
Now, Kakashi was starting to suspect that the new policies coming out of the security departnt might actually be the work of this young boy.
"Obito... have I really been wrong?"
Muttering to himself, Kakashi disappeared into the night.
Everyone says the Uchiha clan is evil, but the Uchiha people he's t have been so naïve, full of smiles, and willing to give their lives for others.
Hokage Office
"Is everything taken care of?" The Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, puffed on his pipe, his tone a bit heavy.
He had just seen through the crystal ball that Kakashi had a long conversation with Uchiha Genya, that little brat.
"Yes, it's all settled. Uchiha Genya promised not to appear in front of Naruto voluntarily!" Kakashi didn't ntion what he had talked about with Genya, instead, he simply gave the result.
After his talk with Genya, Kakashi had grown wary of Hiruzen.
"Did that brat not say anything else to you?" Hiruzen continued to inquire.
"No, he was stubborn at first, but in the end, I brought up your na. That's when he agreed to stay away from Naruto!" Kakashi painted Genya as a stubborn child who eventually gave in under pressure.
He was covering for Genya, considering Obito's favor. If the Uchiha clan's more intelligent mbers were too noticed, the Third Hokage would definitely pay more attention, which could be dangerous.
"Heh, typical of the Uchiha clan, always in a hurry!" Hiruzen sighed in relief after hearing Kakashi's explanation. However, he frowned and asked, "How did you warn him? And why did you bring into it?"
He had always tried to show rcy, but now Kakashi had used force to pressure the boy.
"I didn't say much. I just ntioned Naruto's status as the Jinchuriki and the Uchiha clan's past with the Nine-Tails. I warned him, in your na, to stay away from Naruto." Kakashi continued to explain.
"You told him about Naruto's identity?" Hiruzen inhaled deeply, slightly displeased, but quickly hid his dissatisfaction.
Naruto's identity wasn't a secret in Konoha and would eventually be known. Still, Kakashi, who had been closely watching Hiruzen's expression, noticed a brief flicker of suppressed dissatisfaction. It seed the Third Hokage had hidden his emotions.
"Forget it, let it be," Hiruzen nodded and decided to let the matter go.

The Next Day
Genya's morning training group had now grown to five people: Hayashi, Hikari, Neji, and himself.
The last one to arrive was Hyuga Neji.
"Neji, your physical abilities are weaker than Hayashi and Hikari. If you want to get stronger, you'll have to put in more effort!" Might Guy, running on his hands, caught up and looked at the sowhat immature Neji.
"Run with in a handstand! This is the only way to get stronger!"
"Yes." Neji, having trained with Genya for so ti, had beco less cold and more straightforward. He had decided to follow Might Guy's training thod to improve.
One day, he would stand at the top of the world and make the Hyuga clan regret their treatnt of him.
Right now, what he needed to do was follow Genya's lead.
Also, Genya had told him about how to make contact with the Caged Bird Curse Seal. This had renewed his hope for the future, filling him with infinite anticipation.
Genya passed his days, continuing to train.
Three months quickly passed!
In the Police Force Station.
Genya opened his eyes after a period of ditation. Over the past few months, he had grown taller, and his eyes sparkled with brilliance.
The days had passed quietly, with no significant events, and Genya had lived a peaceful and comfortable life.
In these days, his flas had consud a lot of flesh, and his chakra had slowly accumulated.
His chakra reserves were now likely greater than most Jonin-level ninjas. If you asured it by comparing it to Kakashi's total chakra, Genya's chakra reserves were three tis that of Kakashi's!
{It is widely known that Kakashi's chakra serves as a standard for asuring chakra amounts.}
And his chakra reserves were still rapidly increasing. In just a few years, it could reach a hundred tis that amount. Given enough ti, it could even grow to a thousand or ten thousand tis!
"However, relying solely on chakra to nourish cells for improvent is still a bit slow. It looks like I'll need to find so special cells to see if my own cells can absorb and fuse with them!"
Genya murmured to himself, but his eyes already had an answer.
The night of the clan massacre was approaching. He needed to strengthen his abilities to their peak before that night, to fight against Itachi, and even if he could protect the Uchiha clan from Itachi, it would still cause damage to their vitality.
At that ti,
The Uchiha clan would have a harder ti surviving within the village.
Senju cells, or Uzumaki cells?
"Genya-kun, good news!" As Genya was thinking about the future, Uchiha Shin entered with a smile, looking in high spirits.
"What good news?" Genya asked, curious. There wasn't much that could make Uchiha Shin this excited, but from his smile, it seed like sothing very good had happened.
