Chapter 56 - 56 (2/2)

”Sakumo san, regardless of his plans, we should 1st dispose of the Gold Dust we have around the camp.”

Sakumo nodded, and called the Hyuga clan Ninjas. He gave them the order to locate and then melt all the Gold Dust that's around the camp.

”The Sand will be moving soon. Ryo, there are no problems with the medical team, Right?” Sakumo asked.

”I am in charge of the medical team, so you don't have to worry Sakumo san.”

It was already late in the night when Ryo left Sakumo's tent. The Hyuga's who were inspecting the place found the gold. To follow Sakumo's order, they went out to find all the Ninjas in the camp who excelled with fire release, including the Uchiha's.

In the village, the Hyuga and the Uchiha clan usually don't get along that well. However, once in war, the two families were actually good at coordinating with each other.

Well, even in war, they would still compete against each other, but that rarely leads to any conflicts.

While Ryo was watching the gold being melted from a distance, one of the Uchiha's suddenly looked his way.

He looked shocked after seeing Ryo's face. The latter felt with his great senses that someone was approaching him from behind; he looked back, and saw Fugaku Uchiha who looked absolutely stunned.

Of course, Ryo knew pretty well who Fugaku Uchiha was. The father of Itachi and Sasuken and the next head of the Uchiha clan had also opened his sharingan when looking back at the manga, but he wasn't shown using it.

Ryo did not like Fugaku Uchiha, nor did he hate him. He is now just another Jonin, and Ryo wasn't in touch with him.

Seeing how Ryo turned away, Fugaku immediately chased him and stood is his way.

”What's wrong?” Ryo stopped and asked Fugaku. However, the latter did not answer, and just opened his Sharingan. Ryo was impatient and turned around and left.

”What!” Seeing how Ryo was going away, Fugaku blocked his path.

”What the matter? I'm really busy. Can't you just say whatever it is you want to say quickly?”

”Do you know who your father is?”

Ryo's eyes were startled looking at Fugaku. He had thought of many reasons why he would stop him, but he didn't think of this.

”You look so much like one of my clan members. You look very similar to him, especially in the eyes. Houyi Uchiha, do you know him?”

”What does that person have to do with you?” Ryo wanted to leave, but he was afraid that Fugaku would speak out. He didn't want to disturb his mother's life.

”He is my cousin. His father and my father are brothers. Do you know him?” Fugaku asked again.

”I don't know him. this world is so vast, and many people look similar to each other. I am a Yamanaka, Ryo Yamanaka!”

”Yamanaka's have blond hair, why is yours black?”

”Because my father is a Nara.” Ryo has always used this argument to cover up the reason why his hair was black.

Fugaku Uchiha stared at Ryo for a long time. He didn't look like he was lying. So He could only walk away with the doubts remaining in his heart.
