The Master of Konoha's Legacy

He would then assist from the sidelines to ensure that power was not lost.

After all, in Hiruzen Sarutobi's memory, Minato Namikaze was relatively obedient.

However, since Minato Namikaze took over a month ago, Hiruzen Sarutobi has found that things are developing very differently from what he imagined.

Minato Namikaze was indeed very obedient, always treating me with utmost respect and consulting me on everything.

In the end, it was basically handled according to my own wishes.

The problem is that Uchiha Tonan has the identity of Hokage advisor.

Basically, Uchiha Tonan always ignored what he said.

The same order would only be carried out if Minato Namikaze gave the order.

After a long silence, Minato Namikaze frowned slightly and said in a deep voice:

"Tu Nan, there are basically no problems with the people on the list."

However, Kakashi was greatly traumatized during the war.

I don't think he's suitable to join the Dark Side right now.

That's right, after taking over the Anbu, Uchiha Tonan planned to have Kakashi join the Anbu.

Kakashi's kaleidoscope is currently known only to himself.

The Nine-Tails' rampage still needs Obito to activate it; Kakashi's Tsukuyomi is too effective against Obito.

At that time, Uchiha Tonan will need to use his power to get Kakashi away.

Of course, during this period, they also had to constantly suppress and exclude Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo.

They still have some fighting force at their disposal.

We need to make them resentful so they can stand by and watch, lest they get involved and ruin our plans.

It's estimated that once the Nine-Tails is released, they will be happy to watch Minato Namikaze and himself fight the Nine-Tails to the death.

Uchiha Tonan said calmly:

"He won't refuse my invitation; the Dark Division is a place that hones one's skills."

Once you've seen something many times, you stop caring about it so much.

Kakashi isn't that fragile; constant protection will only hinder his path to becoming a strongman.

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was standing to the side, exhaled a puff of smoke and couldn't help but interject:

"I think Minato makes a lot of sense. Kakashi has the potential to grow into a strong person."

In a few years, he might even surpass his father, White Fang.

The most important thing now is to let him feel the warmth of Konoha and prevent him from falling into darkness.

Potential? Kakashi has now unlocked the Kaleidoscope.

If nothing unexpected happens, they might even kill you.

Uchiha Tonan ignored Hiruzen Sarutobi and took out another list, handing it to Namikaze Ishimon, saying:

"By the way, I plan to merge the dark side with the four departments under my command, which will make it easier for me to work."

The headquarters of the Dark Division is large enough to accommodate four departments, but many of the facilities are old and need to be replaced.

"I need your signature, Mr. Minato, so I can collect the money."

Minato Namikaze has just received the order and hasn't even started looking at it in detail yet.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was sitting beside him, could no longer sit still and said earnestly:

"Tunan, the war is not completely over yet."

The large amount of compensation has almost depleted the village's funds.

The finances are tight, and we simply cannot afford it.

Or perhaps we should just make do with those old things for a while longer.

Uchiha Tonan slowly turned his head to face Hiruzen Sarutobi, and said coldly:

"My lord, you're seriously affecting my work."

My duty is to inform the Hokage of the situation.

As for how to make a decision, that's up to the Hokage.

What's the point of telling me all this?

I'm here today to ask for people and money.

If the Hokage has any difficulties, he can consult with me, his advisor.

Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt a surge of anger rise in his heart.

However, since he did not have a legitimate official position or status, he was completely unqualified to refute Uchiha Tonan.

He could only keep a silent expression and smoke one cigarette after another.

However, he knew in his heart that Uchiha Tonan was helping Namikaze Minato seize power.

Currently, there are basically only three people at the highest level in Konoha.

They are Minato Namikaze, Tonan Uchiha, and Danzo.

Danzo lost the election, and almost all of his vassal forces fled, leaving him to stay in the dark and secluded Root organization every day.

Judging from Uchiha Tonan's current attitude, it probably won't be long before I'm not even qualified to come to the Hokage Building anymore.

Minato Namikaze wasn't stupid; he understood that Tonan Uchiha's actions were all for his own benefit.

But deep down, I still felt that Uchiha Tonan's words were a bit harsh.

He immediately frowned and said:

"Tu Nan, you are not allowed to speak to the Third Generation Lord like that."

Regarding personnel, I have no objection as long as the individual is willing.

The Dark Division suffered heavy losses during the war and definitely needed to be replenished.

However, Konoha genuinely lacks the funds to cover this issue.

Uchiha Tonan turned his head and said leisurely:

"Since the village is short of funds, Mr. Shuimen should have discussed it with me earlier."

Once a problem is discovered, it should be resolved as soon as possible.

We can't put other things off.

Minato Namikaze's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he said expectantly:

"Can you handle the funding issue, Tu Nan?"

Uchiha Tonan nodded calmly and said, "Ask the Daimyo."

Minato Namikaze originally thought that Uchiha Tonan had some particularly good method, but he didn't expect it to be so... conventional.

Minato Namikaze looked slightly embarrassed and tactfully explained on behalf of Uchiha Tonan:

"Konoha's annual budget is fixed."

During the war, we have repeatedly requested increased funding from the daimyo.

The current funding is the maximum that the Daming Prefecture is willing to provide.

Uchiha Tonan remained expressionless, tapping his finger on the table as he said:

"Sign first, and I'll write a letter to the lord later to ask for additional funding."

Minato Namikaze asked with a puzzled look, "Tunan, are you on good terms with the Daimyo?"

Uchiha Tonan gently shook his head and said:

"I'm not familiar with them, but I believe that as long as I explain things to them with reason and emotion, I can succeed."

"The powerful figure will definitely be willing to pay."

"Cough cough~"

Hiruzen Sarutobi choked on the smoke.

Minato Namikaze's lips twitched slightly, but he felt that Uchiha Tonan was somewhat naive.

Minato Namikaze hesitated for a moment, but in order to preserve the beautiful innocence of Tonan Uchiha, he still signed the form.

After all, Tu Nan was his disciple, and he always thought of him.

As a teacher, one should also help one's students solve their problems and provide assistance in certain areas.

As for the funding issue, Minato Namikaze plans to squeeze some money out of other departments.

I'll bear the pressure myself, as long as Tu Nan can focus on his work.

Uchiha Tonan took the order and turned around, pushing his wheelchair.

Suddenly, he paused, took a task sheet from his pocket, placed it on his desk, and said in a deep voice:

"By the way, this task sheet is not in Minato-sensei's handwriting."

The Dark Guard won't recognize them.

After saying that, he pushed his wheelchair away from the Hokage's office.

Minato Namikaze glanced at the mission sheet on the table; the signature at the bottom was signed on his behalf by Hiruzen Sarutobi.

He then looked apologetically at Hiruzen Sarutobi beside him and said:

"My Lord, please don't be angry with Tu Nan."

He's just a bit rigid in his approach to things, but he doesn't have bad intentions.

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled warmly and said:

"I'm not that petty. He'll find out in a few days."

Funding isn't something you can just get so easily.
