"There he is again, that unlucky thing."
"Heh, even though he has Uchiha blood, isn't he just an abandoned dog!"
"Shh, do you want to die? If they hear you, you might get thrown in jail."
"The offspring of a rogue ninja will definitely be a traitor in the future. The Hokage is too kind to let him into the village."
...
With his head slightly lowered and a gloomy expression, Yasu walked along the streets of Konoha.
Yasu had been in this world for nine years, and had spent five years in Konoha.
In those nine years, he went from initial excitement to present resentment.
Just like the villagers who sneered at him said, Yasu had the blood of the Uchiha clan flowing in his veins.
However, he was not acknowledged by the Uchiha clan.
This was because, in order to protect the integrity of their bloodline, the Uchiha clan practiced inbreeding.
But his parents were not like that.
Yasu's mother was from the Uchiha clan, while his father was a member of the Senju clan, possessing the Senju bloodline.
If his father had been an ordinary person, his life might not have been so miserable, and the Uchiha clan might have acknowledged him.
But unfortunately, his father was from the Senju clan, the Uchiha clan's mortal enemy.
Back then, when his mother became pregnant with him, the Uchiha clan's leader and elders immediately confined her and even wanted her to abort him.
After his father found out, he secretly sneaked into the Uchiha clan's territory, took Yasu's mother away, and left Konoha.
Of course, the Uchiha clan couldn't allow the Uchiha bloodline to be wandering outside, so they immediately reported it to the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately declared his parents as rogue ninjas and dispatched the Anbu to hunt them down.
His parents still managed to escape successfully and lived in seclusion in a village without ninjas. After he was born, they lived happily together for four years.
And…Those were the happiest four years of his life.
But then, an accident occurred.
A group of bandits broke into the village. Without ninjas, no one could resist them.
His mother used her Sharingan, and together with his father, they repelled the bandits.
However, this also sowed the seeds of disaster.
The ninjas, like hyenas smelling prey, all came after Chi his mother, wanting to seize her Sharingan.
In the fierce battle, his father sacrificed himself to protect him and his mother.
His mother was also seriously injured, but she mustered her strength and sent him to Konoha, begging for Konoha to take him in.
Hiruzen Sarutobi agreed to Yasu's mother's request. Although his parents were rogue ninjas, they had not done anything harmful to Konoha. Moreover, Yasu had both Uchiha and Senju bloodlines, and might awaken a Kekkei Genkai related to them in the future, so he couldn't be left outside Konoha Village.
And so, Yasu stayed in Konoha.
Hiruzen Sarutobi sent someone to take him to the Uchiha clan's territory, asking if they were willing to take him in and acknowledge Yasu's Uchiha identity.
However, the Uchiha clan did not acknowledge his Uchiha identity.
So, after Konoha arranged a dilapidated house for him, no one cared about him anymore.
And Yasu didn't really care about this.
He clearly understood the conflict between the Uchiha and Senju clans. It was normal for the Uchiha clan not to acknowledge him, since he had the Senju bloodline.
But back then, Yasu, who didn't know that his parents were Konoha's rogue ninjas, thought that everything would get better after coming to Konoha.
He naively believed that as long as it didn't get involved with a Jinchuriki, the villagers of Konoha should still be quite friendly.
Yasu, who wanted to start a new life, was completely disillusioned later.
Because almost all the villagers hated him.
Later, Yasu finally understood why the people of Konoha Village hated him.
One reason was that his parents were rogue ninjas.
The second reason was the Uchiha clan, or more precisely, the Konoha Police Force controlled by the Uchiha clan.
At this time, the Uchiha clan's reputation and power in Konoha had reached their peak because of the Konoha Police Force.
The main job of the Konoha Police Force was to maintain the internal security and stability of Konoha Ninja Village, responsible for formulating village regulations, strengthening and maintaining the order and security of Konoha Hidden Village, and arresting people and ninjas with criminal tendencies.
The arrogant Uchiha clan would directly arrest anyone who said anything bad about the Uchiha clan on the charge of having criminal tendencies.
This made the villagers of Konoha Village extremely resentful of the Uchiha clan.
However, the Uchiha clan was a large and powerful clan, the largest ninja clan in Konoha, and no one dared to provoke them.
And this resentment was transferred to him, Yasu, a child with half Uchiha blood and no surname.
Yasu was not Naruto; he didn't have Naruto's extreme kindness or the influence of asura's chakra.
Living in this environment for five years would break even the most optimistic person.
Yasu really couldn't understand how Naruto, who grew up in this environment, could choose to forgive in the end.
Not to mention those villagers, even Hiruzen Sarutobi was not as kind, tolerant, and friendly as Yasu remembered.
In the five years that he had been in Konoha, Hiruzen Sarutobi had seen him being bullied by the villagers more than once, but Hiruzen only glanced at him and ignored him, turning a blind eye.
Gradually, Yasu was very sure that Hiruzen's kind appearance was just a fake mask he puts when needed.
Now, Konoha was like a prison for Yasu.
But Yasu couldn't leave this prison, because Konoha would not let him leave, and even if he could leave Konoha, he would not have the power to protect himself.
Although Konoha was not a good place in Yasu's eyes, it had to be said that Konoha was the safest place for him currently.
And he was very confident that he would be able to change this situation in the future.
His confidence did not come from his own Uchiha or Senju bloodline.
With only half of the bloodline, Yasu might not be able to awaken the Sharingan or Wood Release Kekkei Genkai in his lifetime.
Yasu's reliance was a system called 'Witness'.
As long as he witnessed events, he could obtain Witness Points.
However, the prerequisite for activating the system was 100 Witness Points.
In the past five years, he had only accumulated 50 Witness Points.
This was thanks to Yasu enrolling in the Ninja Academy three years ago and witnessing Minato Namikaze's enrollment, which gave him 50 Witness Points.
He couldn't obtain the other 50 Witness Points no matter what.
This was all because of his awkward status in Konoha, which made it impossible for him to come into contact with other events.
Moreover, now was a time of peace, and the Third Shinobi World War was still far away, and there were no events that could allow Yasu to obtain Witness Points.
However, now there was an opportunity right in front of him, which was that Kushina Uzumaki was about to enter Konoha and transfer to the Ninja Academy.
As long as he witnessed Kushina Uzumaki's enrollment, he should be able to obtain 50 Witness Points and activate the Witness System.
