I never realized that I was a character in a novel.
All I know is that our family is all Uchiha, and we are good at fire escape, brother control and brother control, and defection.
I have reached the full level of proficiency in the first two, but with the "example" in front and the "example" in the back, I have perfectly avoided all opportunities to light up the "Defection" skill.
Then I'd better keep my feet on the ground and be a squatting ninja in the village.
When my brother defected, I was converting to Buddhism. When my brother defected, I was going around asking for alms.
…
... I may have become a fake ninja, born in the fake Naruto world, and a fake Uchiha.
