The Master of Konoha's Legacy

But you've really had a tough time these past few days.

Nonou smiled kindly and shook her head, then looked at the children around her with loving eyes and said:

"It's not hard work. I've always enjoyed taking care of children."

Seeing them grow up healthy makes me happy.

These children seemed to be able to sense Nono's love for them.

A pure and happy smile appeared on each of their faces.

The scene looked so warm and harmonious.

Uchiha Tonan, who was resting his hand on the armrest, gently raised his index finger and tapped it repeatedly.

These orphans are all promising talents. Although they are all descendants of small families or commoner ninjas, their talents far surpass those of ordinary people.

A few breaths later, Uchiha Tonan said to Nonou in a concerned tone:

"Now that I'm back, you can go back and rest for a while."

Consider it a day off for you.

Nono quickly waved her hand and said, "No need, I'm not tired."

"Nai Sang, you're tired, let me massage your shoulders."

"I'll massage Naisang's legs."

"I want one too! Give me one of your legs!"

........

Listening to the innocent words of these children.

Uchiha Tonan's smile deepened, but his voice became much lower.

"Be good, I'll give you a day off."

Nono has been engaged in espionage activities for many years.

He instantly understood the warning in Uchiha Tonan's words.

He was immediately taken aback, looking at Uchiha Tonan's gentle smiling face, a sense of crisis inexplicably rose in his heart.

She had no idea what she had done to offend Uchiha Tonan.

She had been taking care of these children wholeheartedly while he was away.

Treat the child as if they were your own.

However, Uchiha Tonan's strength and status were far beyond his own, not to mention that Uchiha Tonan was the one in charge of this orphanage.

Nonou pursed her lips, glanced reluctantly at the children, and whispered, "Yes..."

After saying that, he started walking towards the outside of the welfare home.

"Nai Sang, don't go, I want Nai Sang."

"Nai-sang is on vacation and went to have fun by herself."

"But...but I want to play with Nai-san."

"We must be sensible and not cause trouble for Naisang."

"All right......."

After Nono walked out of the orphanage gate.

Uchiha Tonan's smile faded slightly. He pushed his wheelchair into the crowd and clapped his hands, saying:

"Come on, kids, let's have a ninja tournament."

Children are fickle, and when they heard that Uchiha Tonan wanted to play with them, they cheered with joy.

"Great!"

"The ninja tournament has begun."

"I want to become a Jonin!"

"I want to become Hokage!"

........

"Please introduce yourselves first, including your names and positions."

Outside the orphanage gate, Pharmacist Nono leaned against the wall.

Hearing the children's cheers coming from the courtyard, I felt a mix of confusion and reluctance.

From Uchiha Tonan's words, she sensed that Uchiha Tonan seemed somewhat averse to her contact with these children.

Furthermore, Uchiha Tonan did not give her a specific time off.

This made Nono feel that she might have been kicked out.

Could it be that he discovered the information we had gathered about him before?

That's possible.

It seems that things will change in the future...

I may only be able to come to the orphanage when I have time and observe these children from afar.

Nonou's lifelong dream has been to take care of more orphans and raise them to grow up healthy.

This dream has now been shattered.

Nono wiped away the tears from the corner of her eye, and out of the corner of her eye she suddenly noticed the figure of a child standing at the door.

Kabuto Hatake stood at the doorway, holding a baby, adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, and said leisurely:

"Nonou-senpai, the master is very caring, so you don't need to worry."

Upon hearing this, Nonou took a deep breath and nodded dejectedly, saying:

"Excuse me..."

Having said that, he walked towards the end of the street, watched by Kabuto Hatake.

After a long while, Kabuto Hatake shook his head and closed the orphanage gate completely.

Having been by Uchiha Tonan's side for so long, Kabuto Hatake has a certain understanding of him.

Whenever Uchiha Tonan taps his fingers, it means he is thinking.

When Uchiha Tonan's smile exceeds a certain level, it means someone is about to die.

Combining the two, Kabuto Hatake deduced that Uchiha Tonan, after some consideration, had decided to kill Nono.

Although Kabuto Hatake didn't understand what Yakushi Nonou had done to offend Uchiha Tonan... (To be continued)

[Chapter 296: The New Base's Probing]

late at night......

All sounds are silent.

In the desolate sky, the moon, set against the backdrop of floating clouds, shone brightly.

Uchiha clan.

The Uchiha Tonan residence has been uninhabited for a long time.

Thick dust covered everything, and white cobwebs formed in the corners of furniture and between beams.

Originally, when Uchiha Tonan left, he asked Uchiha Mikoto to help him post a long-term cleaning task.

However, as the war progressed, Konoha became increasingly short-handed, and any genin who could throw shuriken were sent to the battlefield.

These cleaning tasks were naturally put on hold.

A spider is surveying its kingdom.

Suddenly, the spider seemed startled and quickly climbed upwards.

A tall, thin figure suddenly appeared in the center of the room, seemingly scanning back and forth.

A few breaths later, the figure moved through the courtyard and walked towards the house in the backyard.

On the veranda, the pale moonlight illuminated the face of the visitor.

The owner of this house was Uchiha Tonan.

At this moment, Uchiha Tonan was wearing a loose white bathrobe, with a calm expression on his face, showing no signs of injury.

Of course, before leaving the orphanage, Uchiha Tonan still left behind a clone of himself to prevent anyone from unexpectedly visiting at night.

I came back this time to retrieve the supplies that I had placed in the underground storage room before going to the battlefield.

For example: money, medicinal herbs, and various rare materials.

Even though Uchiha Tonan has returned to Konoha, he cannot give up any possibility of becoming stronger.

Based on the timeline, the Nine-Tailed Fox's rampage will only last for a little over a year.

In other words, there are still eighteen years until the fourth war in the original work.

Eighteen years is but a blink of an eye for the whole world.

However, in the last few days, the combat power of this world was forcibly raised from the Kage level to the Six Paths level.

The difference between the Six Paths and the Shadow Rank is qualitative.

No matter how much chakra one has, even more than a tailed beast, it's still nothing compared to the Six Paths.

What Uchiha Tonan needs to do now is...

First, try to increase the number of methods as much as possible, such as the kaleidoscope eye techniques and various bloodline limits.

This requires Uchiha Tonan to focus his training on children with high talent.

Secondly, we need to study the essence of Yin-Yang Escape. Only by understanding Yin-Yang Escape can we have enough time to study how to break it.

Therefore, live animal experiments need to continue.

Thirdly, of course, is Naruto and Sasuke.
