Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 268 Office

"Who goes there!"

Three shuriken sliced ​​through the leaves and swiftly embedded themselves in the ground, blocking the stranger's path.

A four-man squad of the security team appeared and stopped those who wanted to approach Konoha through the forest.

Upon seeing the ninja uniform and Kirigakure headband worn by the newcomer, Yamashiro Teru of the security team frowned and immediately asked, "A Kirigakure ninja? What are you doing in Konoha?"

"I'm looking for the Fifth Hokage. I'm Mei Terumi from Kirigakure. Please pass on my message."

"Kirigakure's Terumi Mei?"

Yamashiro Teru glanced at his teammates, but the other three shook their heads. How could they possibly remember all the Kirigakure ninjas? Besides, Kirigakure had the least information among the other four ninja villages.

"What do you need the Hokage for?"

Mei Terumi's expression changed slightly, and she shook her head, gritting her teeth, and said, "Please let me see the Hokage first."

Upon hearing this, Yamashiro Teru hesitated for a moment, but he still prepared to report according to regulations, so he said, "Wait here for a moment, I will report to my superiors. As for whether the Hokage will see you, I don't know."

Mei Terumi nodded after hearing this, and then breathed a slight sigh of relief.

They're already near Konoha; the Hidden Mist's pursuit force and bounty hunters shouldn't show up again.

After leaving Kirigakure, the Fourth Mizukage may have resented her for escaping from Kirigakure, so he directly declared her a rogue ninja. Although Mei Terumi was prepared, in order to take over the responsibility, she had Genji and the Mizukage discuss releasing her companions.

However, Mei Terumi was subsequently subjected to relentless pursuit, not only by the Hidden Mist Anbu but also by bounty hunters from the underground gold exchange. If she hadn't been somewhat capable, she might have been killed long ago.

Things had only gotten a little better recently, with the Hidden Mist Village's Anbu ceasing their pursuit, giving Mei Terumi a chance to escape to the Land of Fire.

Mei Terumi is now filled with anger towards the Fourth Mizukage. She should have been a hero of Kirigakure, and without her, the Fourth Mizukage would still be under the control of the Akatsuki.

As a result, with her help, the Fourth Mizukage broke free from the genjutsu control, but immediately blamed her for it.

This made Mei Terumi increasingly angry, and she had a lot of resentment in her heart that she couldn't vent. She even harbored some resentment towards Uchiha Yoichi, but she had witnessed Uchiha Yoichi's strength and dared not show it.

A while later, Teruyama received a message from the security headquarters, instructing him to release Mei Terumi.

"You can go now. When you arrive at the gates of Konoha, someone will meet you and take you to see the Hokage."

Mei Terumi nodded, and then walked in along the path that Teruyama Akira had cleared for her. When she arrived at the entrance to Konoha Village, she saw many people walking in, but unlike her, the others were entering Konoha through the normal roads.

Konoha now has a considerable daily capacity, but Uchiha Yoichi has redesigned the village's terrain, concentrating ninja institutions in one area while separating the commercial district, residential area, and ninja clan areas into several separate locations.

Tourists can only pass through a few places, such as the commercial area and the ninja park. Other places are patrolled by security teams, which greatly reduces the possibility of espionage.

"Mei Terumi, come with me."

A member of the security team approached Terumi Mei, confirmed her identity, and then led her into the village.

Upon arriving at the Hokage Building in the very center of the village, the security team member continued, "Go inside, someone will take you to see the Hokage."

Mei Terumi nodded. After she entered the building, someone came up to ask her name and then led her upstairs.

Upon arriving at the Hokage's office, Mei Terumi knocked on the door, and a young and beautiful female ninja opened it. After glancing at the Mist Ninja headband on her forehead, the ninja stepped aside and said, "Please come in."

Upon entering the house, Mei Terumi finally saw Yoichi Uchiha, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It had been quite an ordeal to get here from the front door.

"Mei Terumi? I remember you became a rogue ninja of Kirigakure. What brings you here?"

Uchiha Yoichi asked directly, and as he spoke, Kurenai Yuhi brought over a cup of tea and placed it in front of Mei Terumi, saying, "Sit down, please have some tea."

"Okay, thank you."

After thanking Kurenai Yuhi, Mei Terumi turned to Yoichi Uchiha and said, "Hokage-sama, you played a part in my becoming a rogue ninja."

There was a lot of resentment in her tone, which even Kurenai Yuhi could hear. Then, a hint of anger appeared in her captivating red eyes. Where did this rogue ninja from Kirigakure get the courage to come to Konoha and complain about her teacher?

Uchiha Yangyi waved his hand dismissively and said, "I've already said it, your Mizukage is incompetent. No need for further words; I don't have that much time. Just tell me why you've come to see me. If you keep beating around the bush, leave Konoha!"

"I want to form an alliance with Konoha."

Upon hearing Uchiha Yoichi's words, Mei Terumi immediately straightened her posture and said, "I still have many comrades in the village, and there are still many who are dissatisfied with the Fourth Mizukage. With the Hokage's help, I can overthrow Yagura and become the Fifth Mizukage."

"Haha, you really know how to pick your timing."

Uchiha Yoichi laughed before even hearing Mei Terumi finish speaking.

Seeing this, Mei Terumi felt a surge of anger, but she suppressed it and asked with a slight twitch of her lips, "Hokage-sama, why are you laughing?"

"At present, Konoha only accepts one form of cooperation, which is cooperation with Sunagakure. If you are willing, you might as well go and take a look at the current 'Sunagakure'."

Upon hearing Uchiha Yoichi's words, Terumi Mei immediately remembered who Pakura was: "Pakura, is she the Scorching Release user from Sunagakure? The Hokage even collaborated with her."

"That's right. If you're really interested, then go and see the Land of Wind. It'll be too late if you wait any longer. Or you can rest in Konoha for a day, and I'll send someone to take you there. Apart from that, Konoha does not accept any other form of cooperation."

"No need to rest, Hokage-sama."

Mei Terumi replied decisively, "I can leave right now."

"Alright, I'll arrange for someone to take you there. Anyway, there are still quite a few Konoha ninjas in the Land of Wind."

After Uchiha Yang finished speaking, he took out a blank scroll, wrote an order on it, and said to Yuhi Kurenai, "Kurenai, go and tell Masato to have the security team send two people to escort Terumi Mei to see Yekura."

"Yes, Lord Hokage."

Upon hearing this, Kurenai nodded and said that in front of outsiders, she addressed Uchiha Yoichi in a very serious and formal manner; however, when it was just her and Uchiha Yoichi in the office, Kurenai would sweetly address Yoichi-sensei.

This outsider also includes Hinata Satomi. Kurenai Yuhi now grits her teeth whenever she sees Satomi, having already ruined her plans several times.

Please come with me.

Kurenai Yuhi said to Mei, and then led her outside. However, just as they stepped out of the Hokage's office, they bumped into Rin Nohara, who was walking towards them.

"Rin, are you here to see the Hokage?"

"Yes, I've refined a few new pills. I'll have the Hokage take a look."

Nohara Rin smiled and said that since the Akatsuki organization was almost wiped out and Uchiha Madara was resurrected, Nohara Rin has returned to her original appearance and name.

Moreover, many people in the village knew that she had been resurrected. However, Nohara Rin told the outside world that she had never died, but had recuperated for two years after being seriously injured. In order to lull the enemy in the dark, she claimed to have died.

This explanation was also corroborated by Kakashi, who said it during a dinner gathering with his fellow ninja academy students. As the son of the Hokage, his words naturally carried weight, and Kakashi was also a Jonin in the village, making his status as the son of the Hokage far more prestigious than Asuma's.

Furthermore, the news that Nohara Rin was a student of the Fifth Hokage spread, and everyone else envied Nohara Rin.

The Fifth Hokage seems to have had quite a few students. I heard that the weakest one is Kazuhiko Chishima, but he is also a well-known taijutsu master and ninja tool master in the village. In terms of ninja tool manipulation, he is probably no worse than the ninjas of the Uchiha clan.

Whenever Chishima Kazuhiko talks to outsiders, he would humbly scratch his head and say that he was the worst of all the students; but even the worst Chishima Kazuhiko had the strength of a Jonin, and many people envied Nohara Rin and the others, hoping that they could also become the Hokage's disciple.

However, Uchiha Yoichi no longer had the idea of ​​training students. His position was now secure and his strength was steadily improving.

Unifying the ninja world is just a game to him; the only thing that can pique his interest is enjoyment.

dong dong!

After knocking twice, Nohara Rin pushed the door open and peeked in. Finding that Hinata Satomi wasn't there, Nohara Rin walked in with a smile.

"Teacher Yangyi, I have successfully refined the grade three pill you instructed me to make. I've come to ask for your guidance."

pat.

After saying that, Nohara Rin locked the door to the Hokage's office so that no one would disturb her.

"A grade three pill? Lin, your talent is truly remarkable; it hasn't even been that long."

Uchiha Yoichi was also somewhat surprised upon hearing this. Although there were various auxiliary devices to help regulate the fire temperature, the fact that Nohara Rin was able to refine a third-grade pill was enough to demonstrate her talent.

It hasn't even been two years, and he's already become a third-grade alchemist?

"It's all thanks to Teacher Yangyi's guidance, but he hasn't come to see me lately~"

Nohara Rin leaned closer, placed the pills on the table, and spoke to Uchiha Yoichi in a slightly coquettish tone.

"Sorry, Lin, I've been quite busy lately."

While Uchiha Yoichi was speaking, Nohara Rin boldly sat on Uchiha Yoichi's lap, then leaned against Uchiha Yoichi's chest, her soft, delicate buttocks swaying slightly.

She wasn't afraid of being seen by outsiders. This was the Hokage's office, and no one dared to use sensory ninjutsu to investigate it. If caught, they would be imprisoned in Konoha Prison.

Moreover, the glass behind them was specially made so that people inside could see out, but people outside couldn't see in; so Rin Nohara felt very safe sitting on Yoichi Uchiha's lap and kept making little movements.

"Let me take a look at the pills you've refined."

Sensing Nohara Rin's actions, Uchiha Yoichi suppressed his anger and then opened the pill to check it.

Based on Uchiha Yoichi's experience in alchemy, he could tell the effect of a pill just by smelling it.

The pill's energy is slightly disordered, but its efficacy is fine; it's just difficult to preserve. However, for ninjas, as long as it's sealed in a scroll, the preservation effect is better than putting it in a jade bottle, so this pill is perfectly fine.

"Lin, well done. This pill is fine. Your talent is truly remarkable."

After thinking for a moment, Uchiha Yoichi decided to pass on the method of mental cultivation to Nohara Rin, so that she could cultivate her mental power. Alchemists value the soul the most, and mental power and the soul have the same origin. Perhaps after Nohara Rin's mental power becomes strong, she will be able to directly control flames.

Now Uchiha Yoichi can directly control flames without needing other alchemy equipment. However, he hardly refines high-level pills anymore, not only because he lacks raw materials, but also because it is very troublesome to improve them.

"Lin, I've decided to teach you a method for cultivating spiritual power, as a reward for your successful alchemy."

"Thank you, Professor Yang, but compared to this reward..."

Nohara Rin smiled sweetly and continued, "Yoichi-sensei, I'd like another reward."

After saying that, Nohara Rin stretched out her arms and hugged Uchiha Yoichi's neck, then offered her slightly rosy lips to him.

"Lin"

After a while, Nohara Rin, her face flushed and slightly out of breath, opened her mouth.

However, her heart is beating very fast now, and she has a lot of courage, the courage to do anything.

At the same time, when Hinata Rimi returned to the Hokage's office with the engineering team control order she had obtained from the Uchiha Chamber of Commerce, she habitually prepared to use her Byakugan to check the situation inside.

Hinata Satomi forms a hand seal with one hand, causing the veins on both sides of her cheeks to bulge out.

White eyes.

Upon seeing the scene inside, Hinata Satomi was startled, and her face instantly turned red.

"How...how could this be? How could Nohara Rin and Yoichi-sensei do this in such a...how could it be?"

After looking at it for a few seconds, Hinata Satomi felt her mouth go dry. Then, a strange courage suddenly arose in her heart, and she reached out and pressed the doorknob.

"Coming right away."

Uchiha Yoichi's voice came from inside, and then a clone opened the door.

Hinata Satomi tried to keep her expression calm as she walked in. She placed the construction team control order on the desk and said, "Yoichi-sensei, this is the construction team control order from the Uchiha or the other council. I need your review and signature. Oh, Yoichi-sensei, the sun is shining brightly today. Would you like me to open the window for you?"

"No need, Rimi, this is fine."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Yoichi coughed lightly, then took the control order and immediately signed his name. He then said to Hyuga Satomi, "Satomi, I'd like to trouble you to make another trip. This matter is extremely important and must be resolved today."

"."

After receiving the adjustment order, Hinata Satomi felt a slight pang of sadness and said, "I understand, Yoichi-sensei. I'll hand it in right away."

Please vote for me!
