Konoha's Legacy Master

Two months later.

The new year is coming.

Many major events have happened in Konoha these past two months.

First, Konoha held a grand Hokage succession ceremony.

The Third Hokage officially stepped down, and Minato Namikaze succeeded him as the Fourth Hokage.

As the saying goes, once the emperor is the emperor, there are always ministers.

The top management of Konoha almost changed the blood.

The two original Hokage advisors, Koharu and Mito Monobu, have both been dismissed.

Part of the department they were originally in charge of was given to other people with outstanding military exploits, and the rest was put under Minato's control.

After all, Uchiha Tunan is now the only advisor to Hokage.

He forcefully took the ANBU, which was originally under the direct control of the Hokage, into his hands.

These departments can also be regarded as a compensation for Watergate.

Soon afterwards, Namikaze Minato held a wedding with Kushina and officially became husband and wife.

Uchiha Tunan also fulfilled his promise and accepted Uchiha Itachi as his disciple.

It is worth mentioning that when Uchiha Tunan held the apprenticeship ceremony, he was keenly aware that Uchiha Mikoto was pregnant.

It’s just that I haven’t shown my pregnancy yet.

Uchiha Tunan spent two months and basically completely mastered the four major departments and the ANBU.

The spy thorns inside and outside were picked out by Uchiha Tunan using various overt and covert means.

The remaining time is to prepare for the Nine-Tails Rebellion in about ten months.

Before Nazusa was born, Uchiha Tunan did not allow any unrest in Konoha.

At this time, in the Hokage Building.

Namikaze Minato, wearing a god robe, sat in the Hokage's exclusive seat and looked at the list on the table seriously.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sat aside, smoking continuously and quietly watching Namikaze Minato handle political affairs.

From time to time, he glanced at the silent Uchiha Tunan in the wheelchair with his peripheral vision.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's original plan was for Namikaze Minato to succeed Hokage.

And I will help from the side to ensure that the power will not be lost.

After all, in Sarutobi Hiruzen's impression, Namikaze Minato was quite obedient.

But in the month since Namikaze Minato took over, Sarutobi Hiruzen found that the development of things was very different from what he imagined.

Namikaze Minato is indeed very obedient. He has always been respectful to himself and will discuss everything with him.

In the end, I basically handled it according to my own wishes.

But the bad thing is that Uchiha Tunan has the identity of Hokage advisor.

Basically every time, Uchiha Tunan turned a deaf ear to his words.

The same order must be given by Minato Namikaze before Uchiha Tunan can carry it out.

After a long time, Minato Namikaze frowned slightly and said in a deep voice:

"Tunan, basically everyone on the list has no problems.

But Kakashi was too stimulated by the war.

I think he is not suitable to join ANBU now."

That's right, Uchiha Tunan is planning to let Kakashi join the ANBU after taking over the ANBU.

Only he knows Kakashi’s kaleidoscope now.

The Nine-Tails Rebellion still needs Obito to start, and Kakashi's Tsukuyomi is a bit too restrained to Obito.

At that time, Uchiha Tunan will need to use his power to drive Kakashi away.

Of course, during this period, we must continue to suppress and exclude Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo.

They still have a certain amount of combat power.

You have to let them feel resentful and sit back and watch when the time comes, lest they end up messing up their own situation.

It is estimated that once the Nine-Tails is released, they will be happy to watch Namikaze Minato and himself fight the Nine-Tails to the death.

Uchiha Tunan said calmly:

"He will not refuse my invitation. Anbu is a place where people are trained.

If you see some things too much, you won’t care so much.

Kakashi is not that fragile, and blindly protecting him will only slow him down in becoming a strong man."

At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen on the side blew out a puff of smoke and couldn't help but interjected:

"I think what Minato said makes sense. Kakashi has the potential to grow into a strong man.

I'm afraid that in a few years, he will even be able to surpass his father, White Fang.

The most important thing now is to let him feel the warmth of Konoha and not fall into the darkness."

Potential? Now Kakashi has opened the kaleidoscope.

If nothing else happens, I might beat you to death.

Uchiha Tunan ignored Sarutobi Hiruzen and took out a list again and handed it to Namikaze Minato:

"By the way, I am planning to merge the ANBU with the four departments under me, so that it will be more convenient for me to work.

The ANBU station is large enough to accommodate four departments, but many facilities are old and need to be replaced.

I also need you to sign, Minato-sensei, so that I can collect the money."

Namikaze Minato had just received the order and hadn't started to look at it carefully.

Next to him, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't sit still and said seriously:

"Tunan, the war is not completely over yet.

The large amount of pensions has almost exhausted the village's funds.

Our finances are tight and we really can’t afford it.

Otherwise, let’s just keep using those old things for a while.”

Uchiha Tunan slowly turned his face to Sarutobi Hiruzen and said coldly:

"Sir, you have seriously affected my work.

My duty is to inform Hokage-sama of the situation.

As for how to make a decision, it is up to Hokage-sama.

What's the use of telling me these words.

I came here today to ask for money.

If Hokage-sama has any difficulty, you can discuss it with me, the Hokage advisor."

When Sarutobi Hiruzen heard this, he felt a surge of anger welling up in his heart.

However, since he does not have a legitimate position at all, he is completely unqualified to refute Uchiha Tunan.

I can only put on a silent expression and smoke one cigarette after another.

But he knew in his heart that Uchiha Tunan was helping Namikaze Minato take power.

Nowadays, there are basically only three people at the top level of Konoha.

They are Namikaze Minato, Uchiha Tunan and Danzo.

Because Danzo failed in the election, almost all the vassal forces were gone, and he could only stay in the dark roots every day.

Looking at Uchiha Tunan's posture now, it won't be long before I'm afraid I won't even be qualified to come to the Hokage Building.

Namikaze Minato is not stupid, and he also understands that everything Uchiha Tunan does is for himself.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

But I still feel that Uchiha Tunan's words are a bit harsh.

Immediately he frowned and said:

"Tunan, you are not allowed to talk to the Third Generation Master like this.

Regarding personnel issues, as long as I am willing, I have no objection.

The ANBU consumed so much during the war that they really needed to be replenished.

It’s just a matter of funds, Konoha really can’t afford it.”

Uchiha Tunan turned his head and said leisurely:

"Since the village's funds are tight, Teacher Minato should have discussed it with me earlier.

The problem should be solved as soon as possible after the problem is discovered.

You can't delay other things."

Namikaze Minato's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said expectantly:

"Can you solve the funding issue, Tunan?"

Uchiha Tunan nodded lightly and said: "Ask the Daimyo."

Namikaze Minato originally thought Uchiha Tunan had some particularly good method, but he didn't expect it to be so... just average.

Minato Namikaze looked slightly embarrassed, and explained tactfully for Uchiha Tunan:

"Konoha's annual funding is fixed.

During the war, we made many requests to the Daimyo to increase funding.

The current funding is already the limit that Daming Palace is willing to provide."

Uchiha Tunan's expression remained unchanged, he stretched out his finger and tapped on the table:

"Sign first. I will write a letter to the daimyo later asking for additional funds."

Namikaze Minato looked puzzled and asked: "Tuna, do you have a good relationship with the daimyo?"

Uchiha Tunan gently shook his head and said:

"I'm not familiar with it, but I believe that as long as I understand it with emotion and reason.

The big name will definitely be willing to pay."

"Ahem~"

Sarutobi Hiruzen choked on the cigarette.

The corner of Namikaze Minato's mouth twitched slightly, but he felt that Uchiha Toonan was a little naive.

I saw Namikaze Minato hesitate for a moment, but in order to preserve Uchiha Tunan's beautiful innocence, he still signed the list.

After all, Tunan is his disciple, and he always thinks of himself.

As a teacher, you should also solve problems for your students and help them in certain places.

As for the funding issue, Namikaze Minato plans to squeeze some out of other departments.

You have to bear the pressure yourself, as long as Tunan can work with peace of mind.

Uchiha Tunan took the order and turned around while pushing the wheelchair.

Suddenly, he paused, took out a task sheet from his pocket, put it on the desk, and said in a deep voice:

"By the way, this task list is not your handwriting, Minato-sensei.

The ANBU will not recognize you."

After saying that, he pushed the wheelchair and left the Hokage's office.

Namikaze Minato glanced at the task list on the table, and the signature at the bottom was signed by Hiruzen Sarutobi on his behalf.

Immediately he looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen beside him with an apologetic look and said:

"Third generation sir, don't be angry with Tunan.

He's just a bit rigid in what he does, but he doesn't have any bad intentions."

Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled warmly and said:

"I'm not that stingy. He will know it in a few days.

Funding is so easy to come by."

As soon as Uchiha Tunan left the Hokage Building, two ANBU lurking in the darkness appeared behind Uchiha Tunan.

They are specifically responsible for pushing wheelchairs and delivering messages to Uchiha Tunan.

But when Uchiha Tunan handed the personnel list to one of the ANBU, he said leisurely:

"Bring everyone on the list to my office.

If there is any family that dares not to release someone, just tell me their name.

Also, please let me know, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and I won’t allow anything to go wrong in Konoha.

As long as things are done well, the department will pay year-end bonuses."

"Yes."
