The Master of Konoha's Legacy

"It's good that you can see it clearly."

In this world, only families truly care for each member.

Uchiha Tonan nodded and said, "Actually, I've always known that."

Fugaku Uchiha smiled slightly and said, "The Grand Elder was right about you."

However, you can awaken a kaleidoscope because of the deaths of those strange children.

That alone is enough to show that you are too kind-hearted.

If you don't change this part of your personality, you'll suffer a great loss.

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Tonan pursed his lips and nodded silently.

Seeing this, Fugaku Uchiha felt a little helpless.

It seems that this child's personality won't change anytime soon.

At that moment, Uchiha Mikoto entered the living room carrying a six-month-old baby in one arm and a steaming teapot in the other.

"Mikoto, you've arrived."

Fugaku Uchiha took the teapot and filled the teacup for Tonan Uchiha.

Mikoto Uchiha knelt down beside Fugaku Uchiha and smiled calmly:

"I heard that Tu Nan has awakened the Kaleidoscope, so I came here specifically to see it."

“This is…” Uchiha Tonan said, looking directly at the baby in Uchiha Mikoto’s arms.

Mikoto Uchiha smiled gently and said, "This is my child, named Itachi."

Uchiha Tonan picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and said with a smile, "This child is very cute. May I hold him?"

“Of course you can.” Mikoto Uchiha handed Itachi over.

Uchiha Tonan quickly put down his teacup, carefully took Itachi from him, and held him in his arms, coaxing him gently.

Having experience with baby Boku, Uchiha Tonan quickly made the infant Itachi giggle non-stop.

Fugaku Uchiha looked at the scene with a strange look in his eyes, then smiled faintly and said, "Itachi seems to like Tu Nan very much as well."

Uchiha Tonan nodded and said, "I adopted a child named Hatake Kotobuki, who is the same age as Itachi."

Upon hearing what Uchiha Tonan said, Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Mikoto exchanged a quick glance.

Uchiha Mikoto quickly picked up the teapot, bent down to pour tea for Uchiha Tonan, and said, "Tonan-kun, if you like it, why don't you let Itachi become your disciple?"

"I'm fine."

Uchiha Tonan replied casually, seemingly unaware of the profound significance of becoming an apprentice.

A hint of joy flashed in the couple's eyes, and Mikoto said happily, "Really?"

"Then we thank you on Itachi's behalf." With these words, Fugaku essentially settled the matter.

Unless Uchiha Tonan is willing to offend him, he has no choice but to accept Itachi.

But Uchiha Tonan knew exactly what the two of them were thinking.

After all, judging from Uchiha Tonan's battle record and the awakening of his Mangekyou Sharingan, he will definitely become the strongest Uchiha in the future.

As parents, we naturally want our children to have a good teacher and a strong support system.

Uchiha Tonan made a funny face at Itachi in his arms, without even looking up, and said:

"There's nothing to thank me for. I can tell that Itachi has a lot of talent."

Uchiha Fugaku coughed lightly, took a sip of tea, and said, "When do you think it would be best to hold the apprenticeship ceremony, Tu Nan-kun, so we can make some preparations?"

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Tonan raised his head, frowned, and pondered for a moment before saying:

"I will be going out on a mission soon."

"How about this, we'll hold the apprenticeship ceremony when Itachi turns one year old."

"Okay, okay... no rush... no rush..."

Fugaku Uchiha was clearly much more polite to Tonan Uchiha than before.

"You two talk first, I won't disturb you."

Mikoto Uchiha left the living room, seemingly having forgotten about Itachi.

After a short while, seeing that Uchiha Tonan was still teasing Itachi, Fugaku Uchiha had no choice but to get down to business.

"The Grand Elder did reveal some of your previous plans to me, Tu Nan Jun."

But judging from today's situation, it seems the plans have changed.

Uchiha Tonan, holding Itachi, looked up and said with a serious expression:

"My relationship with Hiruzen Sarutobi has deteriorated, and I doubt he will be willing to pass the Hokage position to me."

Upon hearing this, Fugaku Uchiha leaned forward slightly and whispered, "So what are your plans for the future? Do you want to take the path of force?"

Uchiha Tonan pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I'm still young and don't have enough experience."

There is still a lot of room for improvement in our strength, and we can consider everything later.

After all, Lord Danzo is on my side now.

I am not in any immediate danger.

Fugaku Uchiha picked up the teapot on the table and carefully filled a cup, saying:

"Should I tell your clan about your past?"

After all, many members of your tribe still don't quite understand you.

Uchiha Tonan smiled slightly and said, "There's no need, unless it comes to the point where force is required."

It's not in my best interest to let them know too much right now.

Besides, we've had peace for so long; war could break out at any time.

"Once I accumulate enough merit in battle, the Hokage position will be a piece of cake."

Upon hearing this, Fugaku Uchiha's eyes lit up, and he picked up his teacup, saying, "That's good, that's good. It would be best if we could avoid using force and damaging the foundation of the village."

After all, Fugaku Uchiha's own ideology was against using force to seize power.

In his eyes, the Grand Elder's previous actions were quite radical.

Unexpectedly, Uchiha Tonan, whom the Grand Elder had been secretly cultivating, was just like he had thought, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

[Chapter 198. The Prophecy of the Resurrection]

Inside the temple on Mount Myoboku.

Jiraiya sat cross-legged beside Tsunade, who was lying down, his heart filled with anxiety and worry. He said:

"A whole day has passed."

He's clearly regained his breathing, so why isn't he awake yet?

"Little Jiraiya, don't worry, the Immortal Talisman is a treasure passed down from ancient times in the Toad Kingdom."

As long as the body isn't severely damaged, resurrection is possible.

Master Shima offered words of comfort from the side.

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and said, "The ancient times... could they be outdated...?"

Suddenly, Jiraiya keenly noticed Tsunade's eyelashes twitch, and immediately exclaimed with delight, "She's awake..."

"Where am I...?"

Tsunade sat up with a blank expression and rubbed her head.

To everyone's surprise, Jiraiya suddenly hugged Tsunade tightly, trembling with excitement, and said, "Thank goodness, Tsunade, you're alive again."

"Duang~"

Fukasaku and Shima saw a black shadow flash by.

"Bang~"

Jiraiya had been smashed into the wall, his entire body sprawled out and deeply embedded, impossible to pry out.

Two streams of blood flowed down her nose, and her face began to swell.

Fukasaku and Shima rushed over and laboriously pulled Jiraiya out of the wall.

Having successfully escaped, Jiraiya immediately covered his swollen face, gasped, and cried out repeatedly, "Ouch! Ouch! Ouch..."

"How dare you take advantage of me."

Tsunade had already stood up, put her hands on her hips, looked around, and said with a puzzled expression:

"but.......

This is where?

"It's muted."

Jiraiya immediately heard Tsunade mention Shizune.

The initial joy at Tsunade's resurrection vanished in an instant.

He immediately covered his face and walked to Tsunade's side, saying in a low voice:

"Mute is dead."

He died from a special control seal.

She must have been controlled by illusion magic to try and kill you.

After killing you, Shizune's brain was destroyed by the cursed seal.

I buried her on Mount Myōboku.

Tsunade was startled by his words, and the moment when she was killed by Shizune flashed through her mind.

Then his hands fell limply to his sides, he lowered his head deeply, and after a long silence, he whispered:

"A cursed seal that destroys the brain... it seems to be the seal that eradicates the root of tongue-related calamities..."
