The Master of Konoha's Legacy

Six elite Jonin died silently.

How could that guy be so strong? It seems my previous guesses were wrong.

Once things calm down, we need to send the latest intelligence back.

"Hey~"

The old man sighed softly.

I'm going to go back to bed and rest first, and then pass on the intelligence when the time is right.

However, the moment he turned around, he suddenly froze on the spot.

In an instant, a chilling sweat ran down my back.

In the middle of the room, a boy with bandages around his eyes, sitting in a wheelchair, smiled gently and said:

"Old man, why are you sighing when you're about to die?"

"So it's Dean, what are you doing here?"

What do you mean by "dying at the last minute"? I don't quite understand.

Are you cursing this old man?

The old man's expression shifted from astonishment to confusion, mixed with a hint of anger.

Uchiha Tonan leaned slightly to the side, propping his head up with one hand, and said with a mocking expression:

"What are you doing up so late at night?"

Do you think that you'll inevitably sleep forever after death, so you simply choose not to sleep at all?

The old man took a deep breath, his face filled with intense anger.

After a few breaths, he sighed again, looking somewhat forlorn, and said:

"Whenever the moon is full."

I can't sleep because I keep thinking about my deceased son and daughter-in-law.

As people get older, they can't help but reminisce.

Uchiha Tonan nodded in agreement and said:

"The Lantern Festival is a time for family reunion. I completely understand why you're reminiscing about loved ones when you see these objects, old man."

The old man's expression sombered, and he spoke in a weathered tone:

"Dean, have I done something to upset you?"

If you hate this old man, I'll move out tomorrow.

Uchiha Tonan chuckled and shook his head, saying:

"You're quite something, managing to keep it from me for so long."

I mean, why can't I get your approval?

So you're an old spy.

I must say, you're really dedicated; you're still acting even at a time like this.

The old man paused slightly upon hearing this, his eyes filled with confusion, and said:

"Dean, I don't understand what you're saying. You can't slander an old man like me."

Uchiha Tunan raised an eyebrow slightly, pushed the wheelchair closer to the old man with both hands, and brought his face close to the old man, seemingly examining him closely with his eyes hidden behind bandages.

The old man maintained his blank expression, looking at Uchiha Tonan who was right in front of him with a strange look.

After a long while, Uchiha Tonan's face showed surprise as he said:

"Hiss~"

There was no flow of chakra, nor any trace of sealing techniques.

So you really are just an ordinary person.

It's remarkable that an ordinary person could remain a spy for so long without being exposed.

Impressive, impressive.

The old man immediately flew into a rage and shouted, "What nonsense are you spouting? I was born in Konoha when I was a child, how could I be a spy?"

Uchiha Tonan sneered and said leisurely:

"What's the point of shouting so loudly?"

Even if you shout yourself hoarse today, no one will hear you.

Be a good girl and hand over your memories so I can see how many little rats Konoha still has.

These will all be my future achievements.

It'll be perfect for shutting up the others.

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man was horrified to find that his shadow on the ground suddenly stood up, grabbed his neck tightly, and lifted him up.

The old man realized what was happening, his mind reeling instantly. He opened his mouth and said with difficulty:

"This is... the Nara clan's... Shadow Imitation Technique..."

How could you...? Are you... a descendant of the Uchiha and Nara clans...?

"You still say you're not a spy? You're quite knowledgeable."

Uchiha Tonan controlled the old man's shadow with his other hand, which extended to the top of the old man's head and began searching his memories.

The old man felt a chilling energy pour into his brain, turning into tiny knives that were frantically churning his brain.

An unbearable, excruciating pain struck, and the old man's eyes widened as he instinctively wanted to scream.

But it seems he can't control his throat and can't make a sound.

"Well........".

After a long while, Uchiha Tonan finished gathering the information he wanted and slightly tightened the shadow hand that was gripping the old man's neck.

"Click~"

A crisp snapping sound rang out, and the old man's head drooped limply.

In the dimly lit room, Uchiha Tonan's magnetic yet gentle voice rang out.

"They actually have the contact information and accurate intelligence of most of the Cloud Village's spies."

It's true what they say, "Having an elder in the family is like having a treasure."

You are such a treasure.

He gave me such a wonderful gift before he died.

[Chapter 315: Heroes Return to Village, Igniting Ambition]

The next morning.

The sun behind the Fire Shadow Rock seemed to be carrying a heavy burden as it slowly and laboriously rose step by step.

Early in the morning, the entire Hidden Leaf Village was already bustling with activity.

Today is the day Minato Namikaze and Fugaku Uchiha return to the village.

The streets were filled with a massive flow of people, all heading towards the village entrance.

Just like the day Uchiha Tonan returned to the village.

Inside the orphanage, Uchiha Tonan pushed open the door.

Kabuto Hatake behind him said calmly:

"Sir, are you also going to greet them?"

Uchiha Tonan gently shook his head and said:

"It's just a formality. I'm not the main character today; I'd only be there as an extra."

"You stay in the orphanage. If anyone comes looking for me, tell them I went to the Uchiha clan's territory."

After saying that, he pushed the wheelchair away from the welfare home and headed towards the Uchiha clan's territory.

Outside Konoha Village.

Minato Namikaze and Fugaku Uchiha walked side by side.

Behind him followed a group of trusted Jonin.

Just after stepping into the barrier, Minato Namikaze glanced at Kakashi, who was following behind him with a numb expression, and sighed:

"Kakashi, don't dwell on your grief."

I believe Obito and Rin wouldn't want you to be like this in the other world either.

Kakashi nodded silently, without revealing that Obito was still alive.

He immediately looked up and scanned the crowd gathered at the end of the road.

But I didn't see the person I wanted to see.

He immediately said in a deep voice, "I'll go find Tu Nan first. I heard his condition is very bad."

Minato Namikaze knew Kakashi didn't particularly like these kinds of occasions, so he smiled slightly and said in a gentle tone:

"You go first, I'll come back to find you after I report back to the Hokage."

Kakashi nodded and used the Body Flicker Technique to leave.

"Watergate!"

The next moment, a fiery red figure crashed into Minato Namikaze's arms.

"You're finally back safe and sound."

Minato Namikaze beamed with happiness, gently patting Kushina's back as he said:

"It's alright, the war will be over soon."
