The Master of Konoha's Legacy

This is to predict Sakumo Hatake's next move.

Even so, Uchiha Tonan still couldn't break through Hatake Sakumo's defenses.

Sakumo Hatake, however, grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed.

Is this intense sense of being watched a form of sensory ninjutsu?

I didn't expect Tu Nan to have surpassed Kakashi by so much.

"Tu Nan, let me see how much strength you still have."

As soon as Hatake Sakumo finished speaking, his speed more than doubled in an instant.

However, Uchiha Tonan not only possesses the Byakugan's insightful abilities, but also has the ability to predict his movements.

Furthermore, the Sharingan with its three tomoe provides enhanced dynamic vision, allowing the user to clearly see the trajectory of attacks.

Using the Instantaneous Movement Technique without considering the cost.

He managed to narrowly block Sakumo Hatake's attacks each time.

Uchiha Tonan naturally did not believe that this was the full extent of Hatake Sakumo's strength.

After all, Sakumo Hatake never used any ninjutsu from beginning to end.

He didn't even use chakra, relying solely on taijutsu and swordsmanship to fight against himself.

Is this the strength of Konoha's White Fang?

In a so-called samurai duel with White Fang, Uchiha Tonan couldn't use other ninjutsu.

His eyes narrowed instantly, preparing to unleash the ultimate move of the Three-in-One Sword Technique.

Uchiha Tonan withdrew his two other clones, gripped his chakra dagger tightly in his right hand, and stared directly at Hatake Sakumo, saying:

"Senior White Fang, please be careful."

Upon hearing this, Hatake Sakumo knew that Uchiha Tonan was preparing to unleash a powerful attack.

They didn't stop them, just stood there quietly waiting.

Uchiha Tonan narrowed his eyes, leaped up suddenly, and raised the chakra short blade high.

Suddenly, the chakra short blade was filled with a large amount of wind-style chakra, forming a long blade of light.

"Triple Gale Slash".

As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Tonan slashed fiercely at Hatake Sakumo.

[Chapter 70. White Fang's Death: The Plan Achieved]

"Oh!"

The blade struck the ground heavily, cracking the earth along its trajectory and sending dirt flying and dust billowing everywhere.

"Tu Nan, I didn't expect your strength to have reached this level."

Sakumo Hatake emerged from the smoke and dust, his face filled with admiration.

That attack just now wasn't even aimed at Hatake Sakumo.

If Sakumo Hatake really doesn't dodge or evade, he might be cut in two by this strike.

Even if Tsunade returns to the village, she won't be able to save him.

Uchiha Tonan, without changing his expression, sheathed his sword and said:

"Thank you for your guidance over the past few days, Master White Fang."

Suddenly, Sakumo Hatake's expression shifted slightly, and he took a deep look at the figures on the rooftop.

Then he took a deep breath and said:

"Alright, Tu Nan, it's getting late."

I hope you can respect my choice.

"Make your move; this time, Hatake Ryu has lost."

Uchiha Tonan nodded upon hearing this, and his entire body erupted with chakra energy.

His figure vanished in an instant.

Ultimate Technique: Instant Clone Technique.

The next moment, three figures appeared around Sakumo Hatake.

At the same time, he unleashed the Triple Gale Slash, thrusting it at Sakumo Hatake, who stood with his hands bound and eyes closed.

Just as the three sword beams were about to pierce Hatake Sakumo's body, Uchiha Tonan deflected the sword beams.

"Pfft~"

Three short blades pierced Sakumo Hatake's abdomen, thigh, and waist, respectively, all just missing his vital points.

"Boom."

The clone dissipated, leaving only Uchiha Tonan facing forward.

Hatake Sakumo opened his eyes, coughed up a mouthful of blood, and said, "You really are too kind; you held back at the crucial moment."

Uchiha Tonan shook his head and said, "No, it was my mistake."

Sakumo Hatake smiled slightly and said, "But you won."

Uchiha Tonan said with a somber expression, "It was your permission, senior."

"Kakashi is now in your care. I hope you can take good care of him for me."

After finishing his explanation, Hatake Sakumo sighed and said:

"It seems I made a mistake in this matter."

While observing the extent of blood loss in Hatake Sakumo's body using his Byakugan, Uchiha Tonan said decisively:

No, you're not wrong.

However, regardless of whether this matter is right or wrong, there will be losses.

You not only made the right choice, but you also took responsibility with your life.

You are a true warrior.

"Yeah......"

Sakumo Hatake's eyes lit up, as if the weight that had been pressing on his heart for the past few days had lightened considerably.

Uchiha Tonan's left hand had already stealthily slipped into his ninja tool pouch, and he said in a promising tone:

"In the same situation, if Kakashi were in danger, I would also abandon the mission."

"Ding, you have gained Sakumo Hatake's approval."

Upon hearing the notification in his mind, Uchiha Tonan was overjoyed.

Sure enough, your son is still your favorite.

The inheritance will be left to your son no matter what, but I made a promise to you.

Do you consider me your son's guardian in your heart?

Without hesitation, he immediately drew out the chakra dagger.

"Pfft~"

Blood gushed out, and Sakumo Hatake collapsed heavily to the ground.

After a short while, the blood gushing from the wound gradually decreased.

Sakumo Hatake, who had lost too much blood, began to slowly close his eyelids.

Even on his deathbed, he didn't forget to thank Uchiha Tonan.

"Thank you, Tunan."

A slight smile flickered across Uchiha Tonan's lips as he said calmly, "You're welcome."

"Captain, what just happened?"

"You have fallen under White Fang's illusion."

"Why... how did White Fang die?"

"White Fang wanted to die, so he deliberately died at Tu Nan's hands."

"Then we should arrest Tunan."

"Let's go, let's report this to the Hokage. This isn't Tu Nan's fault, it's White Fang's own choice."

As soon as he finished speaking, the members of the Konoha Police Force on the roof left one after another.

"tread."

Just then, Kakashi and Minato Namikaze arrived at the backyard after hearing the news.

Minato Namikaze frowned, glanced at the Konoha Police Force members who had just left, and a knowing look flashed in his eyes.

Kakashi stared in shock at Sakumo Hatake lying on the ground and rushed over.

"Father......"

Kakashi held Sakumo Hatake's corpse and roared at the top of his lungs.

"Father!"

Uchiha Tonan stood there silently, seemingly mourning for Hatake Sakumo.

Kakashi cried for a while, then turned to look at the expressionless Uchiha Tonan.

His gaze slowly shifted downwards, staring blankly at the chakra dagger that was slowly bleeding, and he said:

"Why...why!"

A fierce glint flashed in Kakashi's eyes, and he quickly formed hand seals.

The lightning ball flickered in his palm, making Kakashi's expression at that moment look particularly terrifying.

He immediately unleashed a Lightning Blade at Uchiha Tonan.
