Konoha: Rebuild the glory of the Uchiha!

Hiruzen Sarutobi vowed in his heart that he would teach the Uchiha a lesson in the future.

Mito Uzumaki frowned, utterly disappointed in Hiruzen Sarutobi. Could he not even withstand this little bit of difficulty?

The Uchiha haven't even used their full power yet!

"I, the head of the Uchiha clan, have always considered it my duty to protect Konoha, and I believe I am more suited to be the Third Hokage!"

"However, since Tobirama appointed you as the Third Hokage of Konoha, Hiruzen Sarutobi must have some extraordinary abilities!"

"I can give you a chance. If you defeat me, I can represent the Uchiha clan and acknowledge you as the Third Hokage!"

Uchiha Nan stood up, directly revealing his ambition.

The laughter in the meeting room stopped abruptly. The main character had finally appeared, and the grand drama of vying for the Third Hokage had begun.

Hiruzen Sarutobi turned to look at Mito Uzumaki, hoping she would come to his rescue. Mito had personally said she would take care of dealing with the Uchiha.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi was destined to be disappointed; in Mito Uzumaki's mind, he was now just a pawn to test Nanami Uchiha's strength.

Mito Uzumaki didn't even look at Hiruzen Sarutobi, and coldly said:

"Hiruzen, agree to his request!"

"To become Hokage, you must have the corresponding strength!"

Please vote for me! !

Chapter 31 Heaven truly favors the Uchiha!

"Mito-sama?"

"you!!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's flushed face turned ashen; he never expected Mito Uzumaki to betray him at this crucial moment.

You said you were here to deal with the Uchiha clan.

Even if I defeat Uchiha Nan, I'm afraid Uzumaki Mito won't stand on my side; she'll only stand on the Senju clan's side!

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked around, his eyes bloodshot. Among all these officials, not a single one was a loyal subject of Konoha, and not a single one obeyed the Hokage's dying wish!

Uchiha Nan grinned. Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed to have been rendered helpless and was just waiting to be slaughtered.

"Hiruzen Sarutobi, if you're too scared, then get down here right now and stop wasting everyone's time!"

Uchiha Nan looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi with icy eyes, urging him to make a decision. Uchiha Nan really didn't want Hiruzen Sarutobi to give up.

Hiruzen Sarutobi still has to bear some of the blood debts owed to the Uchiha clan in another world.

"Alright, let's have a showdown then!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi would never back down at this moment. Even if he had to die, he would die on the path to becoming Hokage. Otherwise, how could he face his teacher Tobirama Senju after his death?

"very good!"

"Let me make it clear beforehand: in a ninja duel, swords have no eyes. If you die, it's because you were outmatched. Everyone here can be a witness!"

Uchiha Nan activated his three-tomoe Sharingan and stared at Hiruzen Sarutobi as if he were looking at prey, waiting for Hiruzen Sarutobi's response.

Everyone present gasped. Uchiha Nan was determined to kill, but no one spoke up to stop him, spouting nonsense about stopping short of a fight.

What's the difference between vying for the Hokage position and the princes of the Land of Fire vying for the Daimyo position?

Brothers fighting and fratricide are commonplace; this is a life-or-death struggle, not a dinner party.

Hiruzen Sarutobi naturally agreed; having come this far, there was no reason to back down.

The scene shifts to the dueling arena, where Uchiha Nan and Sarutobi Hiruzen stand facing each other.

Hiruzen Sarutobi propelled himself forward with incredible speed, his body shooting out like an arrow. As if by magic, several shuriken appeared in his hand and shot towards Uchiha Nan.

"Do whatever you want!"

Uchiha Nan scoffed, moving nimbly and not taking the rapidly flying shuriken seriously at all.

Under the dynamic vision of the Uchiha Sharingan with its three tomoe, Hiruzen Sarutobi's hand movements appeared as if in slow motion.

"good chance!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled smugly. As Kagami Uchiha's teammate, the two of them had sparred dozens of times and were extremely familiar with the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan.

Uchiha Nan's casual dodge gave Sarutobi Hiruzen an opportunity!

"Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi gave Uchiha Nan no chance to dodge, and a shuriken that was magnified dozens of times instantly turned into more than a dozen.

Uchiha Nan's space to move in all directions had been completely blocked by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"it's over!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi wore a smug smile, enjoying the joy of impending victory, which suddenly reminded him of his teacher Tobirama Senju's teachings.

Arrogance is a common flaw of the Uchiha clan!

Tobirama Senju mentioned more than once how he single-handedly killed Madara Uchiha's younger brother, Izuna Uchiha.

By feigning weakness, the Uchiha clan, possessing the Sharingan, displayed extreme arrogance towards kunai and shuriken attacks. By exploiting their arrogance, a single, unexpected strike could deliver a fatal blow. Tobirama Senju spoke with pride, his solo kill of Izuna Uchiha a masterpiece, something he could boast about for a lifetime!

"Lava Release: Scorching River Rock Technique!"

Uchiha Nan spat out a magma ball, melting all of the dozen or so giant shuriken that flew towards him.

Lava Release possesses high temperatures and corrosive properties that Fire Release lacks, easily corroding iron completely!

what?

Hiruzen Sarutobi's smile vanished abruptly. Was the ninjutsu Uchiha Nan that he had just used Lava Release?

He traveled all over the country with Tobirama Senju and witnessed most of the bloodline limits in the ninja world. Naturally, he had experienced the power of Lava Release. The high temperature, accompanied by the strong corrosiveness of magma, made it impossible to get involved. If you touched it, your flesh would melt.

Without the help of a medical ninja, the wound would only become inflamed, fester, and rot, ultimately leading to a painful death.

How could Uchiha Nan know Lava Release?

Isn't the Uchiha's bloodline limit the Sharingan?

The onlookers also stared wide-eyed. What kind of luck did the Uchiha have? They had already inherited the top bloodline limit in the ninja world, and now they had awakened Lava Release.

Wouldn't that mean the Uchiha clan in the future would have the opportunity to possess two powerful bloodline limits?

Are the Uchiha clan the biological sons of the Sage of Six Paths?

Is it necessary to show such favoritism towards the Uchiha?

The Sage of Six Paths is unfair!

"How do you know Lava Release?!"

"This isn't fair!!!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi roared at Uchiha Nan, whose two bloodline limits made Hiruzen Sarutobi green with envy.

Hiruzen Sarutobi knew all too well how difficult it was for a ninja without a bloodline limit to become a strong one, while Uchiha Nan had two bloodline limits. He could soar to great heights with either one!

"Molten Release: Lava Condensation Technique"

Uchiha Nan didn't have time to answer Hiruzen Sarutobi's question; he just wanted to cut Hiruzen Sarutobi in half right now.

Uchiha Nan spewed out yellowish-brown liquefied magma from his mouth, which solidified instantly upon contact with the ground. Any enemy who touched it would be pinned to the ground.

"Damn it!"

"Damn!!!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was being chased by Uchiha Nan's Lava Release ninjutsu, and dared not relax for a moment. If he slowed down even slightly, the battle would be over.

"What kind of skill is it to use Bloodline Limit? If you're so capable, let's fight in hand-to-hand combat!"

As Hiruzen Sarutobi ran, he became increasingly furious. This was practically cheating!

He had never heard of a person having two bloodline boundaries.

Idiot!

The same thought popped into the minds of the onlookers: what else could be used to demarcate the boundary if not bloodstains?

That was a gift from heaven to the ninjas!

Want to test your physical skills?

Why would someone who can be dealt with using ninjutsu need to foolishly engage in a taijutsu battle with you? Are they crazy?

Was the mental fortitude of the Third Hokage candidate chosen by Tobirama Senju really that poor?

Although they admired Uchiha Nan, that didn't stop them from looking down on Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was panting heavily, his pace slowing down, but he was still persevering.

Uchiha Nan revealed a cruel smile, feeling that the time was almost right. What would be the point of using ninjutsu to freeze Hiruzen Sarutobi in place and kill him?

He prefers the feeling of waiting until his prey is almost exhausted, but still has the strength to escape.

Just like how Manji teases a mouse, enjoying the fear of its prey fleeing from the brink of death, it will always play with the mouse until it is exhausted before eating it piece by piece.

As Uchiha Nan spent more time with Banji, she would occasionally learn from Banji's methods and use them to relieve her inner unhappiness.

But not now!

This is all a show, a performance for the entire village of ninjas!

Chapter 32 Together We Go to the Underworld!

Uchiha Nan revealed a cruel smile, raised the ninja sword in his hand, and charged towards Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Hiruzen Sarutobi had exhausted his old power and had not yet generated new power. He was extremely anxious as he watched Uchiha Nan relentlessly approach him.

He desperately wanted to speed up his dodge, but Uchiha Nan moved behind Sarutobi Hiruzen in the blink of an eye.

"Tear!"

Blood splatters!

Hiruzen Sarutobi had a cut on his back, but it wasn't fatal. Uchiha Nan deliberately held back his strength; it would have been a shame to kill Hiruzen Sarutobi in one strike.
