Konoha's Legacy Master

Chapter 352: Mourning Ceremony: Show in front of others

Chapter 353 Mourning Ceremony Show in front of others

The next morning.

Konoha Village, Memorial Monument Square.

The severe cold of early winter seemed to come overnight.

The temperature across Konoha dropped sharply.

The dark clouds on the cloudy day formed into a single piece, like a thick piece of iron, weighing heavily in the low sky.

Snow, as light as smoke and as white as silver, flutters and falls from the sky.

A heavy mourning ceremony is being held in front of the memorial monument on the ground.

Under the arrangement of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

A large number of civilians and ninjas lined up in several lines, came to the memorial monument in an orderly manner, and presented their own bouquets of flowers.

Compared to ninjas who are used to death.

The civilian family members were crying hysterically.

You must know that many civilians tried their best and spent a lot of money to move their families to Konoha.

One aspect is Konoha's safety.

But this Nine-Tails Rebellion caused a large number of civilian casualties.

After everyone has finished presenting flowers, the next step is the speech session.

This should have been the responsibility of the Hokage, but now that Minato Namikaze is dead, it is natural that Uchiha Tunan, who has the highest reputation and strength, should give the speech.

After all, Hiruzen Sarutobi will be announced as temporary Hokage later.

It is only fitting that these words were announced by Uchiha Tunan himself.

I saw Uchiha Tunan changing into a white windbreaker today, walking to the commemorative monument filled with bouquets, and facing everyone.

First he took a deep breath, as if to calm down the deep sadness in his heart, and then he sighed and said:

"The night before yesterday, Konoha experienced an unprecedented turmoil.

The Nine-Tails seal was broken, and both the fourth generation master and his wife died.

Countless Konoha ninjas and villagers died in this turmoil.

Here, I would like to say something to all those who participated in the Nine-Tails Rebellion.

Thank you for your hard work!"

Speaking of this, I saw Uchiha Tunan putting his hands on his knees and bowing deeply to everyone.

Everyone lowered their heads, each one sad and silent.

Half a minute later, Uchiha Tunan straightened up and said sadly:

"The evening of October 10th.

A mysterious man wearing a tiger skin mask sneaked into Konoha.

Released the Nine-Tails from the jinchuriki who had just given birth.

He even frantically channeled the Nine-Tails into the village, causing a large number of casualties and property losses."

Immediately afterwards, Uchiha Tunan's tone gradually became sonorous and powerful, and he said with full emotion:

"Facing a sudden and huge disaster.

All the ninjas who participated in the battle risked their lives, dared to fight and fought bravely, and launched a life-and-death struggle with the Nine-Tails.

He made important contributions to saving the lives and property of Konoha compatriots.

Some ninjas sacrificed their young and precious lives.

Use hot blood! Burn the will of fire in your heart.

Use action! Practice your original intention that you have never forgotten.

In this incident, your heroic feats have been fully recognized by Konoha seniors.

It was highly praised by the villagers of Konoha.

I believe that when this incident spreads throughout the ninja world.

It will definitely arouse a strong response.

Konoha, thank you for having you.

The younger generations of Konoha will be proud of you.

I am here to express my most sincere condolences and the highest respect to you on behalf of the heads of the various ninja clans and department leaders in Konoha."

But Uchiha Tunan once again put his hands on his knees and bowed deeply to everyone.

No one in this world has ever heard of such official speech.

A speech like this is shocking when you first hear it, nauseating when you listen to it again, and drowsy when you listen to it again.

I saw that the eyes of the Konoha ninjas who had been immersed in the pain of their companions' deaths began to regain their fighting spirit.

All of them clenched their fists, blushed, and were excited.

Danzo in front of the crowd narrowed his eyes slightly and whispered to Sarutobi Hiruzen beside him:

"This guy is much better than you."

When Sarutobi Hiruzen heard this, he nodded unequivocally and said in a low voice:

"I watched him grow up.

When he was a child, he liked reading very much. It is normal for him to be more educated than me.

But... when it comes to the will of fire, I still need to be better at it."

Uchiha Tunan continued to preach:

"As soon as the Kyuubi turmoil broke out, it aroused great concern from senior officials in various departments in Konoha.

They all care very much about the Konoha heroes who are fighting on the front line.

Especially the Third Generation and Danzo-sama, despite their advanced age, they still organized and mobilized manpower from various departments as soon as possible.

Even in times of crisis, he fought side by side with everyone and was at the forefront of protecting Konoha.

Let Konoha's counterattack force be united in one place, and it can truly be calm, organized and disciplined in times of crisis.

Here, I would like to say thank you to the Third Generation and Danzo-sama."

Uchiha Tunan immediately turned around and bowed deeply to Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo who were standing in front of the crowd.

Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo both nodded slightly with expressionless faces.

But I was shouting in my heart: This guy is really sensible.

After Uchiha Tunan bowed, he moved to the side, slowly placed his right hand on his heart, looked at the memorial tablet, and said in a deep voice:

"The person who made the most contribution to this Nine-Tails Rebellion is naturally the Fourth Generation.

What a pity, God is jealous of talented people.

The couple of four generations of adults both died at the hands of a mysterious man.

The shadow of the most dignified ninja village in the ninja world was actually killed in the village.

This is a great shame!

We must avenge ourselves.

But not now.

Currently, the ninja world is in turmoil.

After Konoha experienced the Third Ninja War and suffered such a disaster, it can no longer withstand the hardship."

But seeing Uchiha Tunan's expression of beating his chest, he raised his hands and said loudly:

"Here, I hope that everyone will take the kind concern of senior Konoha senior officials as motivation and turn the grief of the sacrifice of their companions into strength.

Continuously develop the will of fire that is especially capable of fighting, especially able to endure hardship, and especially capable of dedication.

Keep your trust in mind, fulfill your mission, and rest in a down-to-earth manner.

This is to comfort the spirits of the deceased.

Live up to the expectations of the villagers."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the Konoha ninjas shouted like they were drunk:

"Live up to the expectations of the villagers."

.........

After the shouting stopped, Uchiha Tunan stretched out his hand and waved to the side.

A gray-haired old woman came to the memorial monument with the help of ANBU ninja.

As soon as the old lady walked to the memorial monument, she couldn't help but burst out emotionally. She kept stomping on the crutches in her hands and cried bitterly:

"Yandu, my dear grandson..."

When everyone saw this, they were all filled with sadness and burst into tears.

Uchiha Tunan raised his head, and the bandages on his eyes were soaked.

Then he walked forward, took the old lady’s arm, and comforted her:

"Grandma, don't cry.

From now on, all the descendants of Konoha will be your grandchildren.

You must take care of yourself."

After that, I simply hugged the old lady, patted her back, and kept comforting her.

Let the old woman's tears wet Uchiha Tunan's mind.

At this moment, everyone present saw Uchiha Tunan's approachable and soft side.

After all, most people have only heard of various legends about Uchiha Tunan.

And a small number of them have only seen Uchiha Tunan fighting from a distance.

Although the recognition coverage in Konoha Village is enough, Uchiha Tunan still needs to polish his character.

To avoid becoming Madara Uchiha, approach Senju Hashirama.

When Uchiha Tunan felt that the show was almost done, he gently lifted the old woman upright and handed her to the ANBU who was standing by.

Then he let out a long sigh, turned around and faced everyone and said:

"In fact, a large part of those who came here today are like grandma and belong to the family members of the heroes and martyrs.

Money is something external to the body. Once you lose it, you can make it again.

But if the person is gone, he will never be seen again.

We can see that many names have been added to the memorial tablet.

Whose father, whose husband and son are they?

One more name means one more family's pain.

Here, I want to say something to the families of the heroes and martyrs.

Konoha is a ninja village.

The development, progress, achievements and honors of Ninja Village.

The care, understanding and support of you ninja families are inseparable.

Not only do you have to silently bear the mental pain of losing a loved one or being disabled.

In the future, we will have to overcome difficulties and pressures in life that ordinary people cannot imagine.

Here, the top management of various departments in Konoha have discussed and, in addition to pensions, will also provide you with a certain degree of preferential treatment.

Konoha will never forget the outstanding achievements of any hero, let alone the selfless dedication of the family members of the heroes."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard bursts of whimpering from the crowd.

"Woooo..."

"I just slipped out of the house, and suddenly the house collapsed and he left..."

"Meiya, don't be sad. If the house collapses, it will collapse. From now on, my house will be your home."

"They said that my father was burned to death by that mysterious man..."

"My wife was trampled to death by the abominable Kyuubi when she was escaping."

.......

After a long time, the sad sound gradually became quieter.

Uchiha Tunan took out a tissue from his pocket, pulled up the bandage to a crack, turned his back and wiped it.

Then he took a deep breath, adjusted his expression, turned around and said loudly:

"Please also express your condolences, get over the sadness as soon as possible, and look forward to everything.

Here today, I have one more thing to announce."

Having said this, Uchiha Tunan paused.

The ninja clan chiefs and Konoha senior officials below all stared at Uchiha Tunan with serious expressions.

Everyone naturally guessed what Uchiha Tunan was about to announce.

For these people, no matter how many people die, they cannot stir up their emotions.

Only matters related to interests are worthy of their concern.

But Uchiha Tunan looked solemn and said:

"The Fourth Master was killed in battle, and the position of Hokage is vacant.

A village cannot be without shadow for a day.

But after all, the Fourth Hokage has only been in office for a year, so it is not suitable for him to elect the Fifth Hokage.

Therefore, after high-level discussions, we unanimously decided to temporarily replace the Hokage with the experienced Third Generation.

Next, I would like to invite the third generation of adults to speak to you."

After saying that, he saw Uchiha Tunan retreating to the side.

Sarutobi Hiruzen walked out of the crowd and came to the memorial monument.

When the clan leaders of various clans saw Sarutobi Hiruzen become Hokage again, they had different expressions.

Especially Uchiha Fugaku, his eyes were fixed on Uchiha Tunan, with a look of confusion on his face.

You must know that from the outbreak of the Nine-Tails Rebellion until now, the entire Uchiha clan has been under house arrest.

Even in this mourning ceremony, only Uchiha Fugaku, the clan leader, participated.

There have been no discordant voices within the Uchiha clan because this time Uchiha Tunan's prestige is too great.

Everyone thought that Uchiha Tunan would succeed the fifth Hokage.

But now it is Sarutobi Hiruzen who has returned to serve as Hokage.

Uchiha Fugaku was keenly aware that something seemed a little wrong.

"Ahem..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed twice, took a deep breath, and spoke loudly:

"Where the leaves are flying, the fire is endless.

........."

As expected, although the content of Sarutobi Hiruzen's speech was carefully prepared, it still changed the soup without changing the medicine.

Fortunately, Konoha ninjas are generally not very educated, and they still follow the same tactics as Sarutobi Hiruzen.

By the time Sarutobi Hiruzen finished his speech, it was already approaching noon.

"The mourning ceremony begins here.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, we will hold a ninja clan meeting.

Please come to the Hokage Building, head of each ninja clan."

The mourning ceremony ended and everyone left the memorial monument one after another.

Uchiha Tunan had just walked out of the Memorial Monument Square when he was caught by Uchiha Fugaku by the arm.

But when Uchiha Tunan turned his head, he said with a puzzled face: "Lord Fugaku, what's the matter?"

Uchiha Fugaku looked around, then said solemnly:

"Tunan, why is the Hokage the Third Generation?

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

Now that your legs have recovered, and with your status as a perfect Jinchuuriki, you are fully qualified to succeed the Fifth Hokage.

Is there something wrong here?"

Uchiha Tunan gently shook his head and said:

"Didn't I just tell you the specific reasons?

The Fourth Hokage has only been in office for a year, and the Fifth Hokage will soon appear in Konoha.

Spread the word whether it's good or bad.

We have to think about Konoha's reputation."

However, Uchiha Fugaku is so easy to fool.

The arm holding Uchiha Tunan tightened slightly and said solemnly: "This is not a reason."

What to do if a lie fails to deceive anyone?

Then add the appropriate demeanor and tone and make up a lie.

But seeing Uchiha Tunan's expression change slightly, he pondered for a long time before sighing helplessly, and slowly said:

"This matter is very complicated.

First, the masked man that night can be concluded to be a member of the Uchiha tribe.

Second, Naruto handles too many things every day.

I am blind. If I want to correct documents, I need to use sensory ninjutsu at all times.

Although I was lucky enough to survive, the chakra belongs to Kyuubi after all, not my own.

I can’t tell you the specific situation.

I hope you won’t think too much and don’t tell anyone.”

Uchiha Fugaku was confused when he heard this, but he just heard that Uchiha Tunan could not succeed as the fifth Hokage because he was implicated by that mysterious clan member.

And Uchiha Tunan seems to have some physical problems.

"This...is this..."

That's right, after all, Tunan was really dead at that time.

There will definitely be some flaws in the resurrection of the dead.

But...who is that mysterious man?

Uchiha Fugaku frowned, and he wanted to ask Uchiha Tunan for answers.

But since the other party has already said it, it’s hard to elaborate, so it’s hard to continue asking.

I can only guess slowly when I go home.

Uchiha Tunanjian stabilized Uchiha Fugaku and whispered with a serious face:

"While you are free now, go and inform the clan members.

A whole clan meeting will be held at Nanga Shrine in the evening."

Uchiha Fugaku was still confused at this time, but seeing Uchiha Tunan's serious expression, there must be something big going on.
