The Master of Konoha's Legacy

Thinking of this, Kakashi looked at Uchiha Tonan with a grateful expression and said in a deep voice, "Tonan, thank you."

Uchiha Tonan smiled slightly on his pale face and said, "No need to thank me. The side effects of this secret technique aren't too serious. I'll be fine in a while."

"Wow~"

Just then, Xiao Yanbu's cries rang out from the bedroom.

Uchiha Tonan quickly put down his chopsticks and wiped his hands on his apron.

She untied her apron and put it aside as she walked quickly toward the bedroom.

Soon, Xiao Yanbu's cheerful laughter filled the bedroom.

Uchiha Tonan, carrying little Yanbo, walked out of the bedroom, sat down at the dining table, and said to Kakashi:

"You need to prepare for the Chunin Exams these next few days, so I'll take care of Kotobuki."

"I'll be going out on a mission soon, and I'll be leaving Yanbu in your care then."

Kakashi nodded emphatically and said, "No problem. By the way, what mission are you going to carry out? Is it dangerous?"

After the secret technique just performed, Uchiha Tonan's face was already so pale, and his body must have suffered great injuries.

Under such circumstances, Kakashi was afraid that Uchiha Tonan would not be able to handle the task.

Uchiha Tonan smiled and shook his head, saying, "There's no danger. It's just a Chunin tournament organized by the Daimyo's Mansion."

Kakashi was immediately relieved upon hearing this.

He used his chopsticks to pick up a bite of food and put it in his mouth.

"Waaah!"

Kakashi's eyes widened instantly, and his facial expression gradually became exaggerated.

It's so delicious...

late at night.

Uchiha Tonan carried the sleeping Kotobuki away from the Hatake family and headed towards the Uchiha clan's territory.

Because the New Year had only just passed a few days ago, and the Chunin Tournament was about to begin.

The commercial street was still bustling with people and brightly lit.

Uchiha Tonan had just arrived at the commercial street.

At Ichiraku Ramen at the end of the street, Sakai Takuto, the Sand Village Jonin who had come out alone, narrowed his eyes.

He quickly ate the last bit of ramen in his bowl, then got up and left.

After leaving the ramen shop, Sakai Takuto stretched and glanced at Uchiha Tonan, who looked completely calm and collected.

So this is Uchiha Tonan, who's going to participate in the honorary Chunin Tournament? He looks pretty ordinary, just a regular kid.

Those ignorant Konoha villagers even boasted that he possessed power surpassing that of the Sannin.

Sakai Takuto recalled the information he had gleaned from the villagers earlier that day regarding Uchiha Tonan.

Kindness, courage, fearlessness in the face of power, loyalty and righteousness...

Strangely shaped eyes; capable of summoning a giant Buddha; able to chant sutras to deliver the souls of the dead...

What kind of strange information is this? Those villagers must be under an illusion.

But at this moment, Uchiha Tonan was about to approach, and Sakai Takuto no longer lingered. He turned around and slowly walked away into the distance.

This direction leads directly to the Uchiha clan's territory, which is also the accommodation that Konoha Village arranged for the Sunagakure participating teams.

Sakai Takuto walked slowly, seemingly waiting for Uchiha Tonan behind him.

The ANBU ninjas who were secretly monitoring Sakai Takuto also spotted Uchiha Tonan.

But there was no reaction.

After all, Uchiha Tonan was much stronger than them.

If this Sand Village Jonin wants to harm Uchiha Tonan, then he's just asking for trouble.

Takuto Sakai had a contented expression on his face, seemingly still savoring the delicious taste of Ichiraku Ramen.

He walked slowly with his hands in his pockets, even humming a little tune.

Gradually, Sakai Takuto reached a fork in the road.

One road leads to Sakai Takuto's residence, and the other leads to the Uchiha clan's territory.

The shops near the intersection are all breakfast shops, so they are all closed at this time, and there are no pedestrians nearby.

Instead of taking the road to his own residence, Sakai Takuto walked straight towards the Uchiha clan's territory without stopping.

Those in the shadows immediately became alert upon seeing this.

After taking a few steps, Sakai Takuto suddenly stopped, exclaiming in annoyance:

"Oh no, we've taken the wrong road."

I still need to explain the tactics to them.

After saying that, Sakai Takuto quickly turned around, pulled his hands out of his pockets, and ran towards another road.

Just as Sakai Takuto pulled his hands out, a metal necklace fell to the ground along with them.

But Sakai Takuto seemed completely unaware, hurriedly brushing past Uchiha Tonan who was coming from the opposite direction.

After Sakai Takuto ran past him, a flash of crimson light appeared in Uchiha Tonan's eyes, followed by a slight upturn at the corner of his mouth.

Holding the sleeping Xiao Yanbu, he walked up to the metal necklace and stepped on it.

"What is that?"

Uchiha Tonan feigned surprise, moved his foot away, and then bent down to pick up the necklace.

The necklace was exquisitely crafted and gleamed with a bright metallic sheen.

Uchiha Tunan gently squeezed the metal and could even feel its soft texture.

Of course, the most eye-catching part of this necklace is the sky-blue gemstone in the center, which is obviously priceless.

"Finding it is like buying it; you can even make a fortune while walking at night."

Uchiha Tonan chuckled, put the necklace into his ninja tool pouch, and continued walking towards the Uchiha clan's territory.

The ANBU members who were secretly stationed there saw that Uchiha Tonan had accepted the necklace, so they lost interest in staying any longer and quietly left.

After all, this can be considered a lost item left behind by international friends in Konoha.

If it weren't for a heavyweight like Uchiha Tonan finding it.

The Anbu will definitely hand the item over to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

At that moment, Sakai Takuto was running frantically towards his residence right under the noses of the Anbu.

But he was secretly pleased with himself.

As expected of Lord Kazekage, he actually came up with such a powerful assassination technique.

Even if this Uchiha brat really has the strength to rival the Sannin, he'll probably be bedridden in two months.

Kid, let Sunagakure teach you a lesson and show you what a ninja is all about.

[Chapter 204. Radiation Necklace: Ape Enters Tiger's Mouth]

Upon returning home, Uchiha Tonan first placed the sleeping Koyabu on the bed in the bedroom to rest.

He then went to the living room alone and brewed himself a pot of tea.

While sipping his tea, he took out the necklace from his ninja tool pouch and examined it closely.

So beautiful......

The gemstone, produced in the Land of Demons, is worth two million.

No, it should be ten million now.

This is indeed a huge temptation for an ordinary Chunin.

Uchiha Tonan muttered to himself, casually tearing off the gemstone from the necklace and tossing it aside with a look of disgust.

He immediately activated his Sharingan and observed the metal necklace.

Uchiha Tonan's Sharingan incorporates the abilities of the Byakugan, allowing him to perceive a wider range of light wavelengths.

In Uchiha Tonan's eyes, the necklace was like the sun in the sky, radiating a blazing white light.

"Has the technology in the ninja world already been able to refine metals with such strong radiation?"

This radiation seems to be very targeted.

It can even cause the cells in my body to overload and refine chakra.

"If this continues, given my physical condition, I feel like I'll be completely drained in six months."

Uchiha Tonan was no ordinary ninja who lacked knowledge.

Every so often, several civilians who once identified with the city of fire die in the city.

The commoners who can settle in the City of Fire are all elites from various industries.

This also led to Uchiha Tonan's knowledge and experience becoming increasingly extensive without him even realizing it.

Uchiha Tonan picked up his cup, leisurely took a sip of tea, and murmured:

"Because of the limited strength of cells, a Jonin can only have a maximum of one hour of effective time each day to refine chakra."

Beyond this time, the cells will instinctively rest due to their own protective mechanisms.

If this self-protective mechanism is forcibly broken using secret techniques, a person will age rapidly.

But the radiation from this necklace can actually shield a person's own protective mechanisms.

It also allows cells to continuously refine chakra on their own.

"This is really a great product."

In fact, the metal used in this necklace was refined by the Third Kazekage using Magnet Release, which took a lot of resources and time.

When the Third Kazekage first discovered that this metal could help people quickly refine chakra, he thought it was a treasure.
