The Master of Konoha's Legacy

When asked to swear a solemn oath, he didn't mention himself at all, but instead swore an oath on the entire country.

Uchiha Tonan admitted that he couldn't do that.

Half an hour later, Naraku was as if he had been pulled out of the water. After realizing that he was not dead, he showed an expression of relief.

Uchiha Tonan leaned forward slightly and said softly:

"Seeing how obedient you are, I really can't bear to kill you."

But to prevent you from being disobedient in the future, your teacher has put a little gadget in your head.

You won't mind, will you?

Naraku's pupils contracted instinctively, then he smiled ingratiatingly and said, "I don't mind at all, Master. Everything you do is for my own good."

Uchiha Tonan nodded, glanced back at the crowd lying on the ground, and said:

“I suddenly remembered, you seem to have guessed my true identity.”

This is my biggest secret; I'm the only one in the entire ninja world who knows it.

You are my disciple, so it's fine if you know.

But they.......”

Upon hearing this, Naraku took a deep breath, lowered his head sharply, and gritted his teeth, saying, "This disciple understands."

He then formed hand seals one after another, his movements slightly slow.

After completing the last hand seal, Naraku called out in a hoarse voice:

"Immortal magic...Stone Realm...Descends."

Rumble~

The earth trembled violently, as if it had accumulated immense energy that was about to be released.

puff puff~

A series of sounds piercing flesh and blood rang out.

Throughout the entire Chifu Mountain region, stone spears rose from the ground, piercing through Naraku's men.

Countless corpses were hung on the stone spears.

Their eyes were wide open, as if they had died with their eyes still open.

This move reminded Uchiha Tonan of Kimimaro's Early Fern Dance.

Uchiha Tonan nodded in satisfaction at Naraku's performance and slowly stood up.

He turned and walked towards the City of Fire, saying leisurely, "Let's go, let's find a more private place. I have a task for you to do."

"Yes......."

Naraku stood up, glanced at Uchiha Tonan's back, quickly wiped his eyes with the back of his hand, put on a fawning smile, and followed after him with small, quick steps.

Uchiha Tonan suddenly stopped and turned to look at Naraku.

Naraku subconsciously swallowed, and said humbly, "Is there anything that Master needs me to do?"

Uchiha Tonan said with concern, "Your teacher forced you to kill your trusted subordinate. I hope you won't take it to heart."

Naraku bowed slightly, nodding and scraping as he said:

"How could that be? I am a renowned disciple. Killing a few dogs is nothing to me."

Besides, they saw the disciple's appearance just now.

They have lost their reverence for their disciples.

Disciples also need to keep it a secret.

Otherwise, how will I be able to manage my subordinates in the future?

Uchiha Tonan nodded in satisfaction and said, "Very good..."

However, I still like your rebellious side.

Upon hearing this, Naraku immediately straightened up, his smile fading.

Upon seeing this, Uchiha Tonan's lips curled slightly. He glanced discreetly into the distance before turning and walking towards the City of Fire.

[Chapter 222. The Great Sage and Holy Teacher: The Divine Mandate of Heaven]

The City of Fire, Daimyo Prefecture.

Uchiha Tonan sat in Naraku's seat.

Naraku knelt to the side and obediently began doing the tea-making work that a maid should be doing.

In the ninja world, before the Six Paths of Hell appeared, Uchiha Tonan and Naraku were both considered to be at the pinnacle of strength.

From now until the start of the Fourth Shinobi World War, what Uchiha Tonan needs to do is retreat behind the scenes, lay out his plans, and finally seize the fruits of victory.

In addition, Konoha is just a ninja village after all, and it has no shortage of things like bloodstains and ninjutsu.

However, a person's strength is multifaceted and does not depend solely on chakra, power, speed, etc.

More importantly, one must have sufficient knowledge and experience.

This is also one of the reasons why Uchiha Tonan left Naraku behind.

Another reason is that a person's energy is limited, and only by controlling power can one seize more things.

Just like Naraku, he used short-sighted methods to quickly grow from an ordinary person into a Kage-level powerhouse.

"Teacher, please have some tea."

Naraku respectfully filled the teacup and presented it with both hands.

Uchiha Tonan nodded slightly, took the teacup, and took a small sip, saying:

"Tell me your plans for the future, and I can give you my feedback."

Naraku smiled憨憨地 and said:

"Teacher is joking. I don't mind my humble trick."

"Teacher, I will do exactly as you instruct me."

Uchiha Tunan narrowed his eyes slightly and said leisurely, "Do you know why your master didn't kill you even though this is the case?"

Naraku immediately bowed and said, "Teacher is merciful."

Uchiha Tunan chuckled and shook his head, saying, "Alright, stop acting. It's not like I can't see through you."

Naraku's face showed anxiety, as if he had suffered a great injustice, and he said:

"Teacher, you have truly misunderstood me. I am so determined to prove my innocence that I would rather die than betray my principles..."

Uchiha Tonan impatiently gestured for him to shut up and said indifferently, "Do you still remember the fortune I gave you back then?"

Naraku frowned upon hearing this and began to ponder it carefully.

After a long while, seeing that Naraku still couldn't remember, Uchiha Tonan picked up his cup, leisurely took a sip of tea, and said earnestly:

"I have a unique skill in observing qi; all things in heaven and earth possess qi."

And you, there is a hint of crape myrtle between your brows.

The Purple Star is the most central star in the sky, surrounded by a host of other stars, and can be considered an imperial star.

Without extraordinary external forces interfering, you will surely be able to sweep across the eight wastelands, unify the six directions, and reign supreme over the world.

Naraku suddenly remembered that Uchiha Tonan had said these words to him before.

However, ever since he realized Uchiha Tonan's true colors.

Naraku took it as a trick by Uchiha Tonan to deceive him and had long forgotten about it.

Now that Uchiha Tonan brought it up again, Naraku felt that the other party was trying to deceive him again, and for a moment he did not know how to answer.

"this......."

Uchiha Tonan gave a displeased snort and slammed the teacup down on the table.

"Do you think you were worthy of being lied to by a dignified Asura of the ninja world back then?"

Naraku immediately smiled obsequiously:

"Teacher is joking. This disciple has no interest in power or anything like that now. I only want to stay by your side and serve you well."

Uchiha Tonan gently twirled the teacup with his fingers and said leisurely, "Do you know what my goal is?"

"Konoha?"

Or is it the ninja world?

With Naraku's limited knowledge, that was all he could think of.

Uchiha Tonan shook his head dismissively, then stared intently into Naraku's eyes and said in a deep voice:

"To surpass the Sage of Six Paths and become a true god."

Naraku was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, but he did not take Uchiha Tonan's words seriously.

He just felt that Uchiha Tonan was bragging in front of him.

However, this old guy's boasting was a bit too much.

Now that his life is in someone else's hands, no matter how outrageous the boast is, Naraku can only pretend to believe it and nod repeatedly.

He subtly displayed an expression of amazement on his face to satisfy the old man's vanity.

Uchiha Tonan tapped his fingers lightly on the table and continued:

"But gods cannot interfere in human affairs, as this would be detrimental to the development of the ninja world."

Therefore, as a teacher, I need someone to take charge of this world for me.

"It's perfect timing; I've met you."

Naraku's expression of astonishment turned into one of delight, and his body trembled slightly.

Anyway, this old guy can't stay in the City of Fire forever.

As long as we keep this old guy comfortable now.
