The Master of Konoha's Legacy

Uchiha Tonan liked standing at such a high place, as if he had a feeling of looking down on all living beings, high above.

Looking at Konoha from here, the pedestrians on the streets look like ants moving around, a truly prosperous scene.

The weather was exceptionally good today. The sky was a clear blue, and a few white clouds drifted slowly in the wind like a flock of sheep on a meadow. The sunshine felt warm on my skin.

The spring breeze brings a cool, sweet scent that makes people feel refreshed.

Sunlight slanted onto the rooftop, illuminating the clusters of flowers in the corner, making them appear exceptionally vibrant against the green background.

Danzo seemed a little disliked by the place Uchiha Tonan had chosen, and frowned, saying, "It seems you really like discussing things in this place."

The sun's warm rays shone on Uchiha Tonan and Danzo.

The scene was beautiful, but both of them had their own plans.

Uchiha Tonan spread his arms wide, squinted his eyes, and enjoyed the spring sunshine, saying contentedly, "I like standing in the sunshine."

Just kidding, a wise person doesn't stand under a crumbling wall.

How could Uchiha Tonan possibly go to Root to discuss matters with Danzo?

What if we get ambushed?

Even though he had enough confidence in his own strength, Uchiha Tonan knew that one should not be arrogant.

Putting everything else aside, the sealing team of Konoha alone is enough to give them a hard time.

With sufficient preparation, even the Nine-Tails can be sealed, let alone oneself.

Danzo looked up at the rising sun, his eyes narrowing slightly as he found it a bit too bright, and said in a deep voice:

"I can't help you refuse the honorary Chunin Tournament."

Uchiha Tonan chuckled and shook his head, saying, "It's nothing, just a small matter."

Danzo shook his head upon hearing this, then glanced at Uchiha Tonan with a solemn expression and said:

"Something's wrong with the Daimyo. It happened the day after you broke up with Tsunade."

The funds that were originally agreed upon with me have suddenly disappeared.

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Tonan paused for a moment and then asked, "What do you mean?"

Danzo took a deep breath, hesitated for a moment, and whispered:

There are some things you don't know.

Since last year, the Daimyo's mansion has frequently sent ninjas to loiter outside the village, seemingly to monitor something.

Uchiha Tonan narrowed his eyes, recalling the two unmarked trash ninjas he had killed when he took leave from the village last time.

"Does Konoha not care?" Yu Yu said.

Danzo shook his head and said, "What right do you have to interfere? He's a daimyo."

Some things can only be done in secret.

But those ninjas all came openly with credentials from the Daimyo's residence.

The leaf cannot move.

"If we don't hand over the murderer, our budget for next time will be drastically cut."

Uchiha Tonan adjusted his glasses, looking slightly puzzled, and said:

Even a famous person like him didn't have this much ability before.

"What exactly did Naraku do to make Lord Danzo so wary?"

Danzo looked around and said with a serious expression, "You might not believe it, but after he took power, he killed all his relatives."

This information truly surprised Uchiha Tonan. After remaining silent for a long time, he finally uttered four words.

"Ruthless and vicious."

Danzo nodded and said, "No one in the entire ninja world dares to touch him now."

With his death, the legitimate line of the Land of Fire was severed.

In short, you need to be careful in this Chunin Tournament of Honor in the City of Fire.

The strength of Daming Prefecture is becoming increasingly unfathomable.

Not long ago, all of Konoha's spies were caught.

However, the Daming Prefecture didn't kill them; they were simply reduced to mere mouthpieces, their every move under surveillance.

A playful glint flashed across Uchiha Tunan's lips as he said leisurely, "It seems this honorary Chunin Tournament is likely a den of dragons and tigers; I can't go."

"No, you must go," Danzo said with a serious expression.

Uchiha Tonan asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why?"

Danzo sighed heavily and said:

"The list has been submitted, and the Daimyo's office has also announced the list to the ninja world through various channels."

The daimyo even made a special statement that, unless it was an accidental death, any person on the list who withdrew would have their economic ties severed with that ninja village.

Of course, for Konoha, that means cutting funding.

Prices have now risen to an alarming level.

If you go back on your word now, the villagers will condemn you as soon as they hear the news.

as a result of.......

The consequences are something no one can afford.

Uchiha Tonan chuckled softly upon hearing this, lowering his eyes to look at the bustling Konoha below, and said in a cryptic tone, "Then won't my fate be even worse than White Fang's?"

Is this really targeted?

Could it be that Hiruzen Sarutobi contacted the daimyo and revealed his secret?

Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that it's the guy next to me.

It seems that Naraku has forgotten the pain of his past wounds and misses the beatings he loved.

A cool breeze blew by, swirling up countless dandelions and scattering them downwards.

Uchiha Tonan blew a breath at the dandelion that drifted in front of him, breaking the silence:

"Yes, I definitely want to go."

I haven't seen my good apprentice for a long time either.

Danzo frowned and said in a deep voice, "Don't do anything foolish."

Without a Daimyo, the Land of Fire would collapse, and the meaning of Konoha's existence would be lost.

Apart from families with special bloodline limits, which family doesn't have a large number of commoners living and working throughout the Land of Fire?

At that time, at least half of those people below will have to leave.

Uchiha Tonan shrugged and smiled slightly, "I understand. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Danzo breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that Uchiha Tonan had made a promise, and said in a deep voice, "I can send a team of Root members to protect you then."

Uchiha Tonan waved his hand and turned to walk towards the stairs.

"No need. With my own people around, I'll feel constrained."

Suddenly, Uchiha Tonan seemed to realize something. He paused, glanced at Danzo, and said thoughtfully:

"Tell me, if a beast loses its claws and teeth, would it still dare to attack people?"

Upon hearing this, Danzo's pupils suddenly contracted, and he guessed what Uchiha Tonan was planning to do.

Uchiha Tonan smiled warmly and turned to leave.

After a long while, Danzo leaned against the railing, glanced at the village below, and murmured, "A promising future, but endless troubles ahead."

After leaving the rooftop, Uchiha Tonan headed straight for the Hatake family residence.

Sometimes it's inconvenient to do things without power. After the war, the new generation will gradually replace the old one.

Uchiha Tonan would never forget his brother Kakashi.

After all, the power structure of Konoha will be reshuffled after the three wars.

By then, the only people I'll be close to are Minato Namikaze, Kakashi, and Kushina, who are relatively strong.

Minato Namikaze and Kushina will also die due to the Nine-Tails' attack at the end of the Third Shinobi World War.

That leaves only Kakashi.

Therefore, Kakashi needs to train him properly and make him his capable assistant.

Soon, Uchiha Tonan arrived at the Hatake family's doorstep.

Through the whispers of the wind, Uchiha Tonan heard Xiaoyan Bu's happy laughter coming from the courtyard.

[Chapter 202. The Extra Large Dosage of the Flagwood Upon Arrival]

Uchiha Tonan knocked on the door.

A moment later, footsteps were heard, and Kakashi opened the door.

There, Xiaoyanbo was sitting on Kakashi's shoulders, holding Kakashi's hair with both hands.

Upon seeing Uchiha Tunan arrive, Xiaoyanbu happily opened her mouth and made incoherent noises.

She was hitting Kakashi's head haphazardly, her little feet dangling in the air, flapping around happily.

Kakashian patted Xiaoyanbu gently, grabbed his foot to keep him from falling, and then said with a helpless expression, "Tunan, you've come."

After saying that, he led Uchiha Tonan toward the courtyard.

Uchiha Tonan looked at the little boy clinging to Kakashi and refusing to get off, and smiled slightly:

"It seems that little Yanbu has caused you a lot of trouble."

Kakashi said calmly, "It's alright."

The two arrived outside the main hall in the front yard, and Uchiha Tonan was slightly taken aback.

The living room was filled with toys, like a playground.
