Naruto: Uchiha Madara's Cousin

Ding!

"Detected that the host has reached the age of thirty. The system is about to activate. Do you confirm activation...?"

...

"No, no, no, no!!!"

"Detected strong rejection from the host. The system will enter cooldown. Complete tasks to unlock. During the cooldown period, the host will be penalized by maintaining the age of thirty..."

"????"

In the second year of Konoha, just as Uchiha Madara was about to leave the village, he was stopped by a curly-haired man.

Madara's expression softened.

"Cousin, you don’t need to try and stop me. My mind is made up."

"Cousin, it's important to be well-prepared when traveling. I don’t have much to offer, but take this. Don’t let yourself suffer while you’re out there."

Uchiha Gin handed Madara a storage scroll, tearfully bidding him farewell.

A few years later, after capturing the Nine-Tails, Madara, while resting, accidentally opened the scroll his cousin had given him.

Seeing the piles of gold bricks and several unfamiliar ninja tools inside, he fell into deep thought.
