The strongest support for the fourth generation

"Uchiha?"

Sarutobi sits at this end of the desk... Although he has recently begun planning to arrange the inauguration ceremony of the next Hokage, at least for now, he is still the third generation Hokage of Konoha...

"yes."

With her eyelids lowered, in front of Sarutobi, Tsurugi was completely different from her previous image... Although her beauty could not be denied, she no longer had the wild and uninhibited appearance before, instead she showed a dignified and sensible person.

The appearance... is like her answer, short and concise.

"Why haven't you returned to Konoha for so long, and why have you chosen to come back at this time?" Although he has aged a lot, for an old man like Sarutobi who only cares about the future of the village, any dangers and hidden dangers must be eliminated.

exclude.

"A lot of time has passed since the Uchiha incident."

"As you said, Sarutobi-sama."

She didn't panic at all. She took half a step back politely, and then spoke in her clear voice.

"I didn't participate in that war." She paused, then shook her head with a smile. "Thanks to this, Elder Jing sent me and some other clan members out of Konoha, and arranged manpower to disperse us.

Come and hide in various places..."

Her words were very coherent from here on out, without any trace of editing or thinking - and her eyes were looking calmly at Sarutobi.

"Considering the serious consequences if Uchiha failed, we were ordered to never go out and move around casually. After a long time, when I regained my freedom, the war had already begun..."

As she narrated, she shook her head helplessly.

"I already hate war, so I don't want to participate in this war, so I have delayed returning to Konoha until now."

After saying that, Haru didn't say a word, and just stood silently opposite Sarutobi.

...The Sandaime held his pipe in his mouth, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled the smoke...From his angle, he could have a panoramic view of Tsubasa's every move.

"I see."

Sarutobi put the pipe aside.

"If possible, I hope you can take the ninja level test."

"No problem, Sarutobi-sama..."

The old-fashioned eyes met each other for a moment, and then Sarutobi's voice sounded again.

"However, I hope you can stay at Uchiha Mansion for a while..." He tapped the edge of the table with his pipe. "According to convention, the ANBU people will conduct a certain degree of investigation and isolation on you."

"I see…"

"Pen..."

In the pouring rain, two figures appeared on the river bank almost out of thin air, and the one who spoke was a white plant "growing" from the ground... And not far in front of them, six people wearing hoods,

The figure in the fire cloud suit has been waiting in the rain for a long time.

"You are late."

One of the six people named Payne took a step forward and spoke in a lifeless, emotionless voice.

"Don't be so serious..."

The man standing behind the white plant finally took off his hood, revealing a proud and unruly face - of course, none of this can be compared with the scarlet three magatama in his eyes!

If you were an antique who lived in the previous era, you would probably be shocked when you see this face - that character who should only exist in legends should have been buried in the loess long ago...

"Everything is going according to plan, all we have to do next is wait for the right time."

"Then why do you still come here?"

Payne's voice was still cold and ruthless. It was clearly a question, but it didn't mean anything. Only the few strands of orange hair coming out from under the hood proved that he was really a living person... No, actually

Not sure.

"To give you some help."

The man didn't hesitate at all. He crossed his arms with confidence and calmness in his eyes.

"Nagato," he said in a long voice, even with a sly look in his eyes.

"Don't you want the world to grow as quickly as possible?"

…

"Grow up to the point where Yahiko's tragedy will never happen again..."

…

"Just let me know when you're ready."

The silence lasted for a moment. After that, Payne...or Yahiko, still spoke indifferently. There were only some abrupt black sticks on his face and no other expression...

ps: I know you will have endless things to complain about after reading this chapter, but please just wait quietly... I guarantee it is different from what you think...
