The Master of Konoha's Legacy

"Then you, the great hero of Konoha, will proclaim the Will of Fire for me."

As expected, Uchiha Tonan did not refuse when the children were mentioned.

After only a moment's hesitation, he nodded and said:

"I will prepare well."

Hiruzen Sarutobi knew that winning people's hearts could not be rushed; it had to be done step by step, with nine shallow steps followed by one deep one.

He immediately reached out and gently patted Uchiha Tonan's shoulder, saying:

"Then I'll go to work first and won't be able to keep you company."

Take good care of yourself; let the Will of Fire burn away all past grievances.

After Hiruzen Sarutobi left, Kabuto Hatake, who had been observing from the shadows, finally emerged from the room.

He came up behind Uchiha Tonan and pushed the wheelchair, saying:

"Sir, didn't you say that you and the Hokage have a bad relationship?"

"Why did he seem to be trying to please you both times I saw him?"

Uchiha Tonan smiled slightly and said calmly:

"The war is going badly, and the burden on my shoulders has become heavier."

We need to bring in more people to help share the burden.

Even if I don't help him, as long as I don't cause him trouble, he has achieved his goal.

If he can't hold on, it won't just be his position that collapses, but also the entire family behind him.

He was hostile to me emotionally.

But for him, profit was still paramount.

........

half a month later.

Outside the gates of the ninja academy.

Kabuto Hatake looked at the tall school building inside, a hint of envy on his face, and said:

"Is this the place where you once studied, sir?"

It looks pretty good.

Uchiha Tonan nodded and said:

"Not bad, but I didn't stay long; I graduated early after a year."

Aside from Kakashi and his friends, I don't remember much of my classmates.

Kabuto Hatake adjusted his glasses and praised, "Sir, you are truly a genius."

Uchiha Tonan smiled slightly and said:

"By the way, you should also go to the ninja academy after the war is over."

Don't miss the scenery at any stage of life.

For some, school days are truly wonderful.

A hint of joy flashed in Kabuto's eyes, and he said calmly, "Thank you, sir."

Uchiha Tonan tapped the armrest lightly with his fingers and said leisurely:

"Of course I won't mistreat my own people."

You must get along well with your classmates and make some close friends.

Kabuto's expression stiffened upon hearing this, as if he had thought of something terrible, and he said softly, "Yes..."

Uchiha Tonan turned his head, his eyes, hidden beneath bandages, fixed on Hatake Kabuto's expression, and said earnestly:

"I did not mean that."

Kabuto Hatake paused for a moment, then said in a deep voice:

"Thank you, sir."

Uchiha Tonan smiled gently, then turned his head away.

He's still just a child, so easy to fool.

That's exactly what I meant.

[Chapter 305. Reunion with an Old Friend, Student's Acceptance]

Kabuto Hatake pushed Tonan Uchiha as they entered the Ninja Academy.

Then they saw a Konoha ninja walk quickly up to the two of them.

The man stared intently at Uchiha Tonan in his wheelchair, tears welling in his eyes, and said gravely:

“Tunan.........”

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Tonan tilted his head and said uncertainly:

"Is this Mr. Shangren?"

Naoto Umino clenched his fists and said with a sad expression:

"It's me, Tu Nan, your injury..."

Uchiha Tonan waved his hand casually and said:

"It's not a big deal, it's just not as convenient as before."

"It won't stop me from continuing to contribute to Konoha."

Naoto Umino pursed his lips, bowed deeply to Tonan Uchiha, and said:

"Thank you for everything you've done for Konoha."

Uchiha Tonan said calmly, "It's nothing, it's all as it should be."

Naoto Umino tilted his head back, blinked hard, and held back the tears that were about to well up.

He forced a smile and said, "The children are gathering. Let's go to the playground and wait for them."

The three of them walked around the teaching building and arrived at the playground behind it.

At this moment, students were already walking out of the teaching building one after another on the playground, lining up in formation under the teacher's guidance.

The moment the three people peeked out, all the students turned to look at them.

They exclaimed excitedly:

"Is this Lord Tunan?"

"So this is what the legendary strongman who defeated the Kazekage and Raikage looked like."

He looks so young! I thought he'd be a grumpy old man.

"Lord Tunan is my senior. My father told me that he is a genius who graduated from the Ninja Academy in just one year."

"Hmph, this is a powerful member of our Uchiha clan."

"What's with the attitude? You're just like us, it takes you two years to graduate."

That's because this year's assessment was too easy.

If it's the Three Bodies Technique, how many of you will actually graduate?

"I heard that we'll be going to the battlefield right after graduation. Are we up to the task?"

"Don't worry, we'll just be doing logistics at most."

They help transport supplies and usually stand guard at night.

The real battle isn't yet our turn.

"That's good... I don't want to die on the battlefield."

"I also want to become a great hero like Lord Tunan."

"Damn it... why can't I even use the Three Bodies Technique right now?"

........

"Ding, Kurama Koji has been granted recognition."

"Ding, you have gained Uchiha Tomoya's approval."

"Ding, you have gained Kengo Hyuga's approval."

"Ding, you have gained Hyuga Nagai's approval."

"Ding, gaining Dahe Maoli's approval."

"Ding, Nobuno Iwa's approval has been obtained."

...........

Children are innocent and easily gain acceptance.

Uchiha Tonan merely showed his face, and it was as if some kind of switch had been activated, as he heard the system's continuous confirmation voice in his ears.

“Tunan Sang”.

Among the crowd, Uchiha Shisui, who had just enrolled in school a year ago, had a small notebook tucked under his arm.

He gazed at Uchiha Tonan in his wheelchair with reverence.

Uchiha Tonan also spotted him immediately.

This kid must be a freshman.

Graduated and became a genin so quickly.

Uchiha Tonan thought this to himself, his eyes, hidden beneath bandages, scanned the entire room.

Among the densely packed students, there were many young, innocent faces.

Clearly, due to the war, Konoha lowered the bar for becoming a genin.
