Konoha's Legacy Master
Chapter 191: Confession of Secrets and Complicity
After a while, the ninjas present were evacuated by ANBU and left one after another.
Namikaze Minato and others still have a lot to say to Uchiha Tunan.
Danzo glanced at Namikaze Minato and others who were still beside Uchiha Tunan, and said in a deep voice:
"If you don't leave, why are you still here?
I also want to talk to Tunan on behalf of Konoha about funding for the reconstruction of the orphanage.
Do you think I will embarrass the heroes of Konoha?"
Namikaze Minato and others looked at Danzo and then at Uchiha Tunan, with worries still in their eyes.
Uchiha Tunan smiled at everyone and said, "You go back first, I'll be fine."
Minato Namikaze reached out and patted Uchiha Tunan's shoulder, and said solemnly: "Tuna, if you need anything, remember to come to us. Don't bear the burden alone."
Late at night.
The crescent moon is like a lone boat sailing in the sea of clouds. From time to time, it sheds a faint silver glow through the gaps in the clouds.
On the rooftop above Hokage Rock.
The cold wind howled, and dead grass and fallen leaves were flying all over the sky.
Uchiha Tunan and Danzo stood on the edge of the platform, staring at Konoha, which was lit up with thousands of lights below.
The previous fighting did not affect the enthusiasm of most villagers to welcome the New Year.
Danzo squinted at the scenery in Konoha Village, and said leisurely: "I am very curious about one thing, why there was a sudden break between you and Hiruzen."
Uchiha Tunan reached out and grabbed a fallen leaf that was flying towards his eyes, and said calmly: "Because I killed Shinnosuke and Asuma."
Danzo was slightly startled when he heard this, and looked sideways at Uchiha Tunan.
A possibility came to mind, but he quickly dismissed the possibility and said with a puzzled look: "I don't quite understand."
Uchiha Tunan chuckled and loosened the fallen leaves.
Just quietly watching the swirling fallen leaves slowly drifting downwards.
After the fallen leaves disappeared, Uchiha Tunan turned his head and said softly: "I am... Abe Seimei."
During the words, Uchiha Tunan's expression did not change at all, but such a major secret was revealed as if it were a common conversation.
A look of horror flashed across Danzo's face, and he took a deep breath and stared at Uchiha Tunan in silence for a long time. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
Since the incident in the City of Fire, all parties have been secretly trying to find out the true identity of Abe Keimei.
But I never thought that this person was actually Uchiha Tunan in front of me.
Danzo gradually frowned, wondering what the meaning of Uchiha Tunan's move was, and said in a deep voice:
"Then why did you tell me so easily?
Aren't you afraid that I will leak the secret?"
Uchiha Tunan stretched out his hand to help his eyes, chuckled and shook his head: "The fewer people know about a secret, the higher its value."
Immediately afterwards, Uchiha Tunan stretched out his hand and pointed to Konoha below, looked at Danzo and said:
"Lord Danzo, if those people below knew my secret, what do you think they would do.
They will have one more thing to talk about after dinner, that’s all.”
The reason why Uchiha Tunan told this secret was just to gain the first move.
Since Sarutobi Hiruzen already knows this secret, and Sarutobi Hiruzen is still in a state of break with himself.
Then it is destined that this secret will not be kept secret for long.
As long as one person knows about a secret, it is no longer a secret.
Taking the initiative to tell Danzo before he knew the secret would make Danzo less wary of him and more trustful of him.
It can be regarded as giving full play to the final value of this secret.
After all, I estimate that I will have to join Danzo in the future for some time.
If Danzo suddenly knew the secret at that time, there might be a gap between the two.
Danzo's eyes narrowed, he thought to himself, and said in a deep voice:
"Since you and Hiruzen broke up over this matter, I don't understand why Hiruzen didn't summon the Konoha ninja to kill you."
Uchiha Tunan raised his head and glanced at the crescent moon in the sky, and said calmly:
"You should know that I had a fight with Sarutobi-sensei not long ago.
Fighting alone, he can't do anything to me.
What's more, I killed Orochimaru and almost killed Tsunade today.
I have killed one and a half of the Konoha Sannin who are the most powerful in the ninja world.
Once we break up and start a fight in Konoha, I don’t need to win.
As long as I can keep it up for half an hour.
Do you think the Uchiha clan will get involved?"
"What exactly do you want to do?"
Obviously, Danzo's eyes seemed to become much sharper when he mentioned the Uchiha clan.
Uchiha Tunan glanced at Danzo without any fear, shook his head and said:
"Actually, at first I thought Sarutobi-sensei was the kind of person who was selfless for the sake of the village.
His will of fire can be said to be the enlightenment for the awakening of my will.
It was not until later that I gradually discovered some clues.
I discovered that Mr. Sarutobi is not as loving and selfless as he appears.
His selfishness is heavier than anyone else's, and his desires are never satisfied.
Especially the Fire Capital group almost made my faith collapse."
Danzo raised his eyebrows and said, "What happened that time in the Fire Capital?"
Uchiha Tunan narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a reminiscing look:
"I serve as the temporary city guard captain in the City of Fire. I have always adhered to my duties and punished rape and evil for the residents in the area.
Killed batch after batch of criminals and rescued hundreds of orphans from human trafficking organizations.
In order not to delay the growth of those orphans, I disguised myself as Abe Keimei and taught these orphans knowledge.
Somehow, I actually attracted the attention of the daimyo and was invited to teach the two highnesses.
After entering Daming Mansion, I discovered Shinnosuke's true face."
Danzo became interested now and said in a deep voice: "Isn't it true that Shinnosuke is not only the guardian of the Twelve Ninjas? He is also secretly performing some secret mission."
Uchiha Tunan nodded solemnly and said:
"When I was teaching the two His Highnesses, I accidentally learned that Shinnosuke often taught the then Highness the power of Konoha ninja.
He is trying to get His Highness to abolish the other eleven ninjas and replace them all with Konoha ninjas after he succeeds to the throne.
I think you should know the consequences of doing this, Danzo-sama."
Danzo was silent when he heard this. The consequences of this situation are obvious.
The life and death of the daimyo are in the hands of the Hokage, and the so-called one-village-one-country system is in vain.
Thousands of years of thought have already taken root in the hearts of people in the ninja world.
No one would dare to do something like this, even during the most chaotic Warring States period.
Danzo has been planning to be the Hokage for so long, but he never dared to get his name.
I didn't expect that Hiruzen, your ambition is so big.
Uchiha Tunan continued:
"Your Highness was not familiar with world affairs at that time and did not know the stakes involved.
Although I am a Konoha ninja, I also know that the hand of the Ninja Village cannot reach the Daming Palace.
To do so would be treason.
Obviously, Sarutobi-sensei is no longer satisfied with controlling the Ninja Village, he wants to control the entire Fire Country.
Under my secret persuasion, His Highness seemed to have sternly rejected Shinnosuke's proposal, and became even more wary of Konoha.
Shinnosuke became angry and assassinated the daimyo, and tried to frame the fault on his highness.
Fortunately, his framing method was full of loopholes and was exposed by the other eleven Guardian Ninjas.
Then they had a big battle in the City of Fire, almost destroying a third of the capital.
I hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to kill this unstable factor in the ninja world with my own hands.
As a result, the murderer died and Mr. Sarutobi's plan failed.
Damingfu and Konoha will not be at odds with each other."
After Danzo listened, he nodded subconsciously, then thought of something and asked:
"No, if that's what you said, then why did you kill Asuma?"
Uchiha Tunan raised his head, looked into the distance, sighed and said:
"Stop Sarutobi-sensei's selfishness so that he can govern Konoha wholeheartedly.
Of course, I know this is unfair to Sarutobi-sensei, but I can find a way to make it up to him.
I am even willing to replace Shinnosuke and Asuma and honor him as a son.
Everything, for Konoha and peace."
A strange look flashed in Danzo's eyes.
I feel that the brain circuit of the kid in front of me is really different from ordinary people.
However, such a paranoid and powerful person may be the most suitable for cooperation.
Immediately he coughed lightly and said, "What kind of person do you think I am?"
Uchiha Tunan glanced at Danzo and said bluntly:
"Vicious and vicious, doing things by any means.
He sent his subordinates time and time again to cause trouble for me."
As soon as these words came out, Danzo clenched his fists slightly, thinking that Uchiha Tunan was about to fall out with him.
But then, Uchiha Tunan's words dispelled his worries.
"However, once a general succeeds, all bones will be withered, and he who achieves great things will not stick to trivial matters.
If it were before, I would have thought that you, Danzo-sama, are an out-and-out villain.
But after returning from the City of Fire, I secretly observed you several times.
Especially when I was treated unfairly today, Danzo-sama, are you willing to stand up and stand on the side of justice?
I suddenly realized that my previous views on you were a little biased.
If my prediction is correct, Danzo-sama, you are interested in becoming the Hokage, so you have used various means to cut off Sarutobi-sensei's wings.
For example, Lord White Fang, and for example...me."
Danzo immediately admitted frankly: "Yes, I did all those things.
Konoha has long been in decay under Hiruzen's leadership.
Only I can lead Konoha back to life.
Tunan, if you support me to become Hokage.
I can guarantee that Konoha will be a thousand times better than it is now."
Uchiha Tunan immediately stared at Danzo with a solemn expression and said:
"This matter is of great importance. Can I hear your ruling thoughts, Danzo-sama?"
Danzo knew that the critical moment had come.
As long as you convince Uchiha Tunan, you can get a follower comparable to the Sannin for nothing.
He immediately took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "As soon as I come on stage, the first thing I do is..."
As Danzo narrated, Uchiha Tunan's expression sometimes frowned in thought, and sometimes he suddenly admired.
By the end, Uchiha Tunan looked at Danzo with deep admiration.
"I really didn't expect that Danzo-sama has such a profound understanding of the will of fire.
Many of my ideas even coincide with mine.
When the war is over, I will do my best to support you in becoming Hokage."
"War?" Danzo frowned upon hearing this.
Uchiha Tunan nodded and said:
"I feel that war will break out soon.
During this period, I don’t want Konoha to experience too much civil strife.”
As the leader of Konoha, Danzo receives news from various countries every day.
The war mentioned by Uchiha Tunan is not too surprising.
After all, from all aspects, there is a possibility of war, but the specific time is not certain.
"I hope you remember what you said today.
Hiruzen probably won't give you the funds for the welfare home.
But it doesn’t matter, I can allocate funds to you.”
A happy look appeared on Uchiha Tunan's face, he put his hands on his knees and bowed deeply towards Danzo: "Then thank you, Danzo-sama."
Danzo looked at Uchiha Tunan's behavior and nodded with satisfaction.
Talents like Uchiha Tunan will definitely provide a powerful boost for him to compete for Hokage in the future.
Don’t be too hasty in recruiting talents. Today is just foreplay.
He immediately reached out and patted Uchiha Tunan on the shoulder, then turned and left.
After taking a few steps, Danzo seemed to have thought of something. He paused and looked sideways slightly:
"By the way, Hiruzen Sarutobi demoted you from jounin to chuunin a few days ago.
The reason is that the workload is insufficient.
In addition, you have been replaced as a participant in the Honor Chunin Tournament.
I can't change this matter, you just have to be careful."
After Danzo left, Uchiha Tunan straightened up, narrowed his eyes slightly, and murmured:
"It seems that you want me to die in the Fire City."
Then, Uchiha Tunan turned around and moved his gaze to the brightly lit Konoha Hospital.
After what happened this time, the old woman Tsunade should not cause trouble for herself in a short time.
In this case, it seems that I have no legitimate reason to kill her.
Uchiha Tunan pondered for a while, and the corners of his mouth gradually became clear.
If you don’t have a reason, why not create one yourself?
This reason must not only appear to be ignored by Tsunade, but also sufficiently stimulate her.
As the saying goes, a man who refuses to retaliate is not a gentleman.
Uchiha Tunan is a gentleman who will retaliate for his anger.
A leaf fluttered and fell towards Uchiha Tunan's head.
The moment he was about to touch Uchiha Tunan, Uchiha Tunan's figure had disappeared from the rooftop.
At this time, Konoha Hospital.
Tsunade is still lying on the bed unconscious.
It's not that her injuries are really serious.
It’s just that the sequelae of hemophobia are so great that she has been unable to wake up.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, Jiraiya, and Shizune were all guarding the ward.
Tsunade's identity is too important, in case some masters such as Uchiha Tunan sneak in and kill her in a sneak attack.
That’s a big deal.
In the ward, Hiruzen Sarutobi was addicted to smoking.
He immediately took out the cigarette rod, came to the window, put his head out, lit the cigarette, and started smoking it one puff at a time.
"Jiraiya, when Tsunade wakes up, you must hold her back and don't let her cause trouble to Tunan."
Jiraiya nodded and said, "I know, I'm not an ignorant person."
Sarutobi Hiruzen smoked a cigarette, his eyes narrowed slightly, and scenes of him and Uchiha Tunan getting along appeared in his mind.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt something was wrong, but I couldn't quite pinpoint what was wrong, so I had to say:
"You should all be careful with Tunan in the future. He may not be as simple as you think."
Jiraiya in the ward heard this, picked up the fruit on Tsunade's bedside, took a bite and said, "Old man, can you speak more clearly?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen puffed out a puff of smoke, slowly shook his head and said:
"There are some things I can't tell you now. You just need to remember to keep your distance from him.
In addition, he is a member of the Uchiha clan and has a good reputation among the villagers.
If Tsunade is allowed to trouble him again, it will be difficult for me to deal with it."
Jiraiya shrugged indifferently and said, "Well, since you don't want to say it, forget it.
Shizune, please go back and rest first. The old man and I are here to guard you.
If Tsunade doesn't wake up tomorrow, it will be up to you to continue treating her.
You have to maintain enough energy."
Hearing this, Shizune glanced at the unconscious Tsunade, nodded and said: "Okay, then I'll bother you, Hokage-sama and Jiraiya-sama."
