Konoha's Legacy Master

Just as the four of them stepped out of the conference room, they found a person standing by the window in the corridor.

The man was wearing a white trench coat, and his slender figure looked even more elegant.

Putting his hands on his back, he looked at the scenery outside the window, as if he was observing something. The broken snow outside the window was swaying, giving it a more ethereal artistic conception.

It is the Uchiha Tunan that everyone was just talking about.

Danzo glanced at Uchiha Tunan and said calmly:

"Little guy, it's a coincidence that you came here."

But in my heart, I thought it was Sarutobi Hiruzen who secretly summoned Uchiha Tunan.

Uchiha Tunan seemed to have just reacted, turned around, stretched out his hand to adjust his glasses, and said with a smile: "Danzo-sama, advisor, Orochimaru-sama."

Uchiha Tunan behaved very politely, and both Mito Kaden and Koharu nodded in kindness and thought this child was very good.

Although they sided with Danzo this time, most of the reasons were not because they deliberately wanted to oppose Sarutobi Hiruzen.

On the one hand, it is because Uchiha Tunan is indeed the best candidate and they are not hostile to the daimyo.

On the other hand, Danzo gave them a promise that no one could bear to refuse.

Danzo walked past Uchiha Tunan, stretched out his hand and patted Uchiha Tunan on the shoulder, half-smiling but not smiling:

"Half a year later, I still need you to win glory for Konoha, come on."

Orochimaru glanced at Uchiha Tunan with his snake eyes, a look of interest flashed in his eyes.

Uchiha Tunan did not respond, just smiled at the corner of his mouth, watching the four people leave, the smile in his eyes gradually became weird.

After the four people left, Uchiha Tunan stepped into the conference room.

What catches the eye is Hiruzen Sarutobi, who is leaning on a chair with his eyes closed to relax.

Uchiha Tunan quietly came behind Sarutobi Hiruzen and stretched out his hands.

Use your thumb to gently rub Sarutobi Hiruzen's temples, which also specially transfers some chakra, making the massage more relaxing for Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Then he said softly:

"Teacher, what's upsetting me?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep breath, and then exhaled heavily.

"Hoo~"

There were a lot of things going on recently, which gave him a headache. He enjoyed the massage from Uchiha Tunan, and the boredom in his heart seemed to disappear.

"What's the matter with you coming to see me?"

During this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen only felt mentally and physically exhausted.

Since Shinnosuke and Asuma died, the people Sarutobi Hiruzen valued the most were Uchiha Tunan and Orochimaru.

Orochimaru has been with him for so many years, and he has watched him grow from an ignorant boy to one of the Sannin of Konoha who shocked the ninja world.

It has always been my pride.

But he didn't expect that his most valued disciple would betray him at a critical moment.

According to the relationship, Uchiha Tunan is Orochimaru's junior brother.

But he still pushed his junior brother into the fire pit of the Fire City with his own hands.

Uchiha Tunan controlled the strength of his hands and whispered harmoniously:

"I thought of some regulations for the welfare home, so I wanted to ask the teacher to help publish them."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, waved his hands and said:

"Let's put the orphanage matter aside for now.

The senior management just held a brief meeting.

The daimyo calls for you to participate in the Honorary Chunin Tournament to be held in the City of Fire in half a year.

After high-level voting, the matter has been decided."

Uchiha Tunan nodded slightly and said: "I have no problem. It is my honor to bring glory to the village."

Sarutobi Hiruzen opened his eyes, held Uchiha Tunan's hand, patted the back of his hand, and said sincerely:

"Tunan, you are still too naive, some things are not that simple.

Maybe I’m really old, I really didn’t expect them to be together now.”

He said and squinted his eyes.

When Uchiha Tunan heard this, he paused and said, "Is it about politics?"

A wry smile flashed across Sarutobi Hiruzen's lips and he said, "Why, do you still understand this?"

Uchiha Tunan narrowed his eyes and smiled:

"I'm not stupid. I actually see many things, but I'm not interested in paying attention to them.

In my heart, as long as the village is good and the teacher is in good health, everything will be satisfied."

They were the only two people in the entire office, and the cigarette rod on the table was still emitting white smoke.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Uchiha Tunan and compared it with Orochimaru in his mind.

Suddenly I found that there is no comparison between the two.

Although Orochimaru is also smart and has high understanding, he pays too much attention to personal interests, is unstable, and is not loyal enough.

The young disciple in front of me is perfect in every aspect.

It's almost like he was carved out of the same mold as himself.

You can also share your worries, please yourself, and have a sense of justice.

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt a lot relieved when he thought this, and sighed softly:

"Hey~ The only thing I'm angry about is that Orochimaru, as my disciple, actually helped Danzo speak for him."

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere fell into silence.

The soft, light snowflakes outside the window are densely packed and flying one after another, as if they are millions of jade scales falling from the sky, or like velvet butterfly wings flying all over the sky.

Sarutobi Hiruzen kept his head lowered, with an expression of regret and heartache on his face.

After a long time, Uchiha Tunan suddenly said:

"Teacher."

"Huh?"

I saw Uchiha Tunan looking into Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes and saying firmly:

"I will always stand by your side. If someone wants to harm you, I will do whatever it takes to get rid of him.

Even if it means using the dirty methods I hate most."

Uchiha Tunan's eyes were shining with fierceness, and he looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen firmly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't expect that Uchiha Tunan, who was always polite in dealing with others, would actually have this side.

He immediately looked stunned and said: "Tunan...what do you mean."

Uchiha Tunan looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with burning eyes and said warmly:

"Mr. Yu, you have dedicated so much to Konoha over the years, and you can even swallow your anger and consider the overall situation without going against the Daimyo.

And your ideas are so advanced, I have always believed that you can lead Konoha to glory.

Anyone who goes against you is going against the village and my beliefs.

In private, I am your disciple, I will help you but not your relatives.

In fact, I am not that great. Everything I love comes from you.

For you, I will not hesitate to fall into darkness.

Even if the whole world betrays you, I will always be your disciple."

Uchiha Tunan's tone was sonorous and powerful, and he even became more and more excited as he spoke. The light in his eyes flickered, and he looked directly at Sarutobi Hiruzen with eyes full of admiration.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was already disappointed because of Orochimaru's betrayal today, after hearing Uchiha Toonan's words that sounded like a confession.

The whole person's defense was completely broken.

"Ding, get approval from Sarutobi Hiruzen."

I saw tears flashing faintly in Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes, and he said with an moved face:

"Good boy, it's good that you have this intention. The matter hasn't reached that point yet, I will handle it well."

Uchiha Tunan shook his head and said softly: "Teacher, I will go to the competition, and I will get first place.

I want everyone to know that I am the disciple of the strongest Naruto.

I want to be your pride.

Please don’t embarrass me anymore, I have this confidence."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was shocked when he heard this. He nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, if you need any help, just tell me."

Uchiha Tunan narrowed his eyes, took his hand out of Sarutobi Hiruzen's palm, and then held Sarutobi Hiruzen's hand behind his back with both hands.

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt the temperature of Uchiha Tunan's palm, and the heat slowly entered his heart.

"Teacher, thank you for taking care of me before. Please don't treat me like a child in the future.

Sooner or later, I will grow into a towering tree, which can provide wood leaves and shelter you from wind and rain."

After saying that, Uchiha Tunan stood up and walked out of the conference room.

When he reached the door, Uchiha Tunan paused, turned around and said:

"Teacher, give me some time, I will definitely be able to help you."

After saying this, Uchiha Tunan strode away.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the empty door, gently rubbed his eyes with his hands, and murmured:

"This child..."

Then he took a deep breath, his eyes glowed again, he narrowed his eyes and murmured:

"Old friend, I'm sorry.

Konoha cannot be destroyed in your hands."

"Here comes someone."

"Lord Hokage."

"Go ahead, ANBU Team 1 and Team 2 will start investigating Koharu and Mito Kaden respectively.

Important figures in their family also need to be investigated one by one.

Anyone who comes into contact with them will do so privately.

In all cases, whether there is definite evidence or conjecture.

Give it all to me in three days."

"Yes."
