The Master of Konoha's Legacy

The nightmarish scene from last night involuntarily flashed through my mind, and my whole body began to tremble violently. My hands, which were holding the container, tightened involuntarily.

Uchiha Tonan sat down by the bedside, reached out and ruffled the little boy's silver-gray hair, soothingly saying:

"Don't worry, your illness is due to a genetic defect that causes partial loss of skin, muscle, and joint function."

Even without a cure, the Palm Immortal Technique can nourish and restore tissue activity, thus addressing the symptoms.

It's unclear whether it was Uchiha Tonan's gentle actions or the relaxed atmosphere that had the effect.

The little boy gradually calmed down and looked around the room.

The room was clean and tidy, with snow-white walls that looked as if they had just been repainted.

Tiny, glistening water droplets still clung to the flower petals on the windowsill.

A feather lay quietly beside them, a faint fragrance filling the air.

The whole world seemed so harmonious and peaceful.

It seems that last night's hellish scene was just a nightmare.

The little boy lowered his head, staring intently at the baby in the container, and murmured, "Am I dreaming?"

Uchiha Tonan smiled slightly and said gently:

"How could it be a dream?"

No matter how terrifying a dream may be, it cannot compare to the cruelty and despair of reality.

You were busy until late last night and collapsed from exhaustion.

When I came in, you were covered in blood.

The room was filled with blood and bits of flesh.

While I'm giving you a bath...

I created several clones to tidy up the room together.

They also buried your parents behind the house.

Doesn't it look much better now?

By the way, what's your name?

"I......."

The little boy's brows furrowed, and for a moment he couldn't remember his own name.

Uchiha Tonan smiled gently, put his arm around the little boy's shoulder, pulled him into his arms, and patted his shoulder lightly, saying:

"You can't remember, can you? Your memory is incomplete."

However, thanks to my treatment, the condition did not worsen.

At least now you still remember your parents.

Upon hearing the words "parents," the little boy's eyes welled up with tears, and he murmured:

"Have I lost my memory? Why don't I feel anything?"

Uchiha Tonan patiently explained:

"People with amnesia generally do not realize that they have amnesia."

It's like how, without someone reminding you, you wouldn't even realize you've forgotten something.

The little boy quietly looked at the baby curled up in the green solution, gently stroking the container wall and said, "Thank you, you are a good person."

Uchiha Tonan raised an eyebrow upon hearing this and chuckled softly.

"I wouldn't call myself a good person, but I can say that to you, I'm one of your own."

If you really think about it, I'm way worse than those guys.

He's a complete and utter villain.

The little boy looked up in confusion, staring at Uchiha Tonan's profile, which was brightly lit by the sunlight, and said:

"You're a bad person too? You don't seem like one at all."

Uchiha Tonan shrugged and smiled:

"If the world only has two definitions, good and bad, then I can be classified as a bad person."

Uchiha Tonan had no intention of pretending in front of this future subordinate.

At first, Uchiha Tonan had a close friend, the Grand Elder, with whom he could open up and talk.

After the Grand Elder died, Uchiha Tonan became a close friend of Danzo, sharing the same ideals.

But the war will end sooner or later.

When that time comes, the two will inevitably have a conflict of interest, and their brotherly friendship will break down.

Sometimes, Uchiha Tonan also wanted someone to confide in in order to fulfill his social needs.

Social needs were not a necessity for Uchiha Tonan.

But if it were available, that would be even better.

"Why are you helping me? I remember they seem to know you. Aren't you together?"

The little boy pondered for a long time before asking the question that had been on his mind.

Uchiha Tonan pondered for a moment, then said slowly:

Good people will live in harmony with each other and help one another.

But bad people only exploit each other, and they have no use to me.

so.....

If they kill him, so be it.

In this world, nothing matters except one's own fate.

Other people's lives are worthless.

Upon hearing this, the little boy lowered his head, his eyes dimming slightly, and said, "So you wanted to use me."

Uchiha Tonan nodded and said:

"That's right, I want to use you."

I saved you and your brother.

I want you both to have the right to breathe in the sunlight.

One should have principles and learn to be grateful.

Besides, although I'm using you, I have no intention of harming you.

"You and your brother are in a good place with me, aren't you?"

The little boy didn't think for long before silently nodding and saying, "Okay."

Uchiha Tonan smiled gently and said:

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Uchiha Tonan, a Konoha ninja."

From now on, you and your younger brother will come back to live in Konoha with me.

I will add you to the Hatake family genealogy.

In this way, you will also have a noble surname.

Let's call you Dou, and as for your younger brother, let's call him Yi.

"Hatake Kabuto, Hatake Remnant, aren't they nice names?"

"Hatake Kabuto... Hatake Remnant..."

Kabuto Hatake repeated the two names several times, then looked up at Tonan Uchiha and said:

"Thanks......

"...Will he survive?"

Uchiha Tonan pondered for a moment, then stroked his chin and said:

He is not fully developed yet.

The solution in this container, after my improved formulation last night, is almost identical to the amniotic fluid environment.

As long as you add a certain amount of nutrients to the container every day, it can grow up healthily.

As for your congenital genetic defects, I can cure them at any time once I've done my research.

After saying that, Uchiha Tonan slowly got up and walked out of the bedroom.

"Come out and say goodbye to your parents."

By the time you come again, you'll probably be all grown up.

Kabuto pursed his lips upon hearing this, a resolute glint in his eyes.

He immediately got off the bed with the container in his arms and followed Uchiha Tonan out of the house.

[246. Chapter 245 The Kidnapping Successfully: The Mysterious Locked Room]

On the open space behind the house.

A new grave has been erected here.

Uchiha Tonan considered that the deceased were a married couple.

So they were buried together.

Kabuto Hatake, holding the container, stood with Tonan Uchiha in front of the grave.

He didn't cry or become hysterical; he just stood there quietly, as if lost in thought, or perhaps reminiscing.

Uchiha Tonan knew that everyone expresses their emotions differently when they are grieving.

Some will cry, some will laugh, and some will remain silent, suppressing all their grief in their hearts.

Perhaps because of his illness, Kabuto Hatake is much more mature than his peers.
