The Master of Konoha's Legacy

Go and have a servant inform Nabari and ask him to come to me.

I should keep my promise to you.

Upon hearing this, Shinnosuke was overjoyed. "Thank you, Your Highness."

Before long, the Second Prince arrived at the First Prince's residence with a confident stride.

His recent experiences have been so fantastical that many people come to his residence every day to flatter him.

Moreover, his father has been treating him very well these days, indulging him in everything.

Therefore, the Second Prince himself felt that his father was preparing to hand over the position of Daimyo to him.

Before I remembered, His Highness always displayed his intelligence and wisdom.

He pretended to be diligent and studious all day long, and many people sided with him, making them live in his shadow.

Therefore, he has never had a good impression of his older brother, who has always been superior to him.

Now that the situation has reversed, it's only natural to vent one's anger properly.

The Second Prince entered the room and sat down arrogantly, saying in a displeased tone, "Naraku, what do you want with me?"

Upon hearing this, the Crown Prince's anger flared up instantly.

When did my good-for-nothing younger brother become so superior to me, daring to call me by my given name?

If he were to become a daimyo, wouldn't the first thing he do upon taking power be to eliminate me?

Even the Crown Prince himself didn't realize that his way of thinking was now very different from before.

Despite his anger, the Crown Prince knew he couldn't show it.

The Crown Prince took a deep breath and quickly calmed himself down.

With an almost humble smile on his face, he said:

"Nahara, here's what happened."

Shinnosuke has protected me for so long, I know him well too.

He is an upright and outstanding ninja, well-suited to be the next Hokage.

The Second Prince raised an eyebrow and asked in confusion, "Why are you telling me all this? I don't know him at all."

He really is a good-for-nothing who knows nothing.

The First Prince slightly rose and personally poured tea for the Second Prince while saying:

"I've been slow-witted since I was little, unlike you who are so smart."

From now on, this prestigious position will probably be yours.

I have a good relationship with Shinnosuke, and I would like to ask you to write a guarantee.

I promise to support him during the Hokage election after I become a Daimyo.

This is the first time I've ever asked you for a favor as your older brother.

After saying that, he stretched out both hands and pushed the teacup in front of the Second Prince.

The First Prince's humble posture immediately made the Second Prince feel extremely comfortable.

Even his hostility towards the Crown Prince lessened considerably; he picked up his teacup, blew on it, and said:

"Alright, it's just a village chief position, I agree."

After saying that, he took a sip of tea, only to burn his mouth.

At this moment, the First Prince got up and took paper, pen and inkpad from the study, and placed them in front of the Second Prince.

"Nahara, as the future daimyo, I believe you will definitely keep your word."

But having a written agreement will allow Shinnosuke to pledge his loyalty to you without worry.

I'm sure you won't mind this little tedious thing.

The First Prince has already figured out the Second Prince's temperament.

As long as others flatter him and praise him, he will take the opportunity to climb up the social ladder.

Upon hearing these words, the Second Prince was secretly delighted and nodded in agreement.

He coughed lightly, straightened his collar, picked up a pen, and began to write a guarantee.

After finishing writing, the First Prince subtly pushed the inkpad towards the Second Prince's face.

The Second Prince didn't think too much about it and simply pressed his fingerprint on the guarantee.

His Highness quickly put away the guarantee as if it were a precious treasure.

Seeing the First Prince's attitude, the Second Prince suddenly felt a little bored.

The opponent I'd always considered surrendered without even a chance to fight.

It was a waste that I always thought of him as a capable person.

He immediately stood up and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll be going now. Father is waiting for me to have dinner together."

The eldest prince hurriedly followed behind the second prince, fawningly saying, "Naihara, let me see you off."

"Ah."

After the Second Prince left, the First Prince stared intently at his retreating figure, his smile growing increasingly stiff.

He felt an intense loathing for it.

He hates!

Why is this useless person able to be reused, while he is left to be abandoned here?

As soon as the Second Prince left the courtyard, Shinnosuke immediately emerged from the shadows and stood before the First Prince, his eyes fixed on the guarantee in the First Prince's hand.

His eyes were full of longing.

The prince noticed his expression, smiled slightly, and handed the guarantee to Shinnosuke.

Shinnosuke took the guarantee and immediately held it in his arms like a treasure, feeling a little touched by the prince.

"Your Highness... thank you."

The prince shook his head nonchalantly and said, "It's nothing, I just kept my promise."

This guarantee is very important; you'd better not carry it with you.

Put it in a secluded spot in the mansion, so it doesn't get lost.

Shinnosuke nodded emphatically.

After Shinnosuke left, the prince locked himself in his study alone.

While practicing the hand seals on the scroll, he murmured:

"The emperor...is also lonely and widowed..."

As expected, the teacher was right.

When it comes to personal gain, no one can be trusted.

Time passed day by day.

Uchiha Tonan has already taught these orphans how to refine chakra.

They only taught the Three Body Techniques and a few simple C-rank ninjutsu.

Of course, these orphans are definitely not as talented as the children from Konoha School.

But their strength lies in their diligence and their appreciation for the hard-won life they have now.

They couldn't unleash any ninjutsu, but they firmly remembered the hand seals and theoretical knowledge.

Late at night, Uchiha Tonan was reading in his study.

Yoshihara Ao stood quietly beside Uchiha Tonan, serving him tea and water, barely daring to breathe throughout the entire process.

Suddenly, Uchiha Tonan's eyes lit up, and he stood up abruptly.

The next moment, he flashed into the courtyard and looked towards the direction of Daming Prefecture.

A colorful firework burst into bloom in the sky above Daming Prefecture.

Has it started...?

Immediately, Uchiha Tonan closed his eyes and immediately increased the range of his Wind Whisper's perception, recklessly enveloping the entire Daimyo Prefecture within it.

A moment later, Uchiha Tonan opened his eyes, a slight smile playing on his lips.

He instructed Yoshihara Aoi, who had trotted out of the study:

"Cang, summon all the servants in the manor."

"Yes, my lord."

Soon, all the servants in the manor gathered together, awaiting Uchiha Tonan's orders.

Uchiha Tonan sat in a chair in the study, placing the sheathed chakra dagger on the table to his right, and said in a cold voice:

“You’ve helped me with a lot of things during this time.”

But through clandestine channels, I discovered that someone had leaked my information.

As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Tonan opened his Sharingan and captured the facial expressions of the servants.

The servants all knelt down, their faces filled with fear.

"My lord, you are wise and discerning. I am completely loyal to you and have absolutely not revealed anything."

"Yes, sir, if I were to tell anyone, I would be struck by lightning and die a horrible death."

........

Having worked in the manor for so long, they knew Uchiha Tonan's personality well.

Traitors will die a terrible death.

For a moment, these servants were all trying their best to prove their innocence, fearing for their lives.

Uchiha Tonan glanced at their expressions and saw nothing suspicious except for their fear of death.
