In the distance, Aburame Shiguro saw this scene and did not hesitate to activate the tongue-eradicating seal.
However, the curse seal did not give him any feedback.
"Is he dead? Could it be Uchiha Fugaku who has such a level of fire escape?
Or maybe it's that old guy..."
A figure flashed in Aburame Shiguro's mind.
The next moment, Aburame Shiguro's figure had disappeared.
The mission failed...
The moment the pillar of fire broke out, it ignited the nearby room, and the fire spread quickly under the cold wind.
In the house, Uchiha Tunan slowly threw the money and land deeds in the cabinet into the cellar.
Then he put the diary and the "Will of Fire" signed by Sarutobi Hiruzen that he bought originally under his arm.
He casually stepped to the left, just in time to avoid a burning beam.
Turn around and walk outside.
The person who attacked this time obviously belonged to the Aburame clan.
Judging from the appearance, if it's not the dark part, it's the root part.
It seems that Danzo has evil thoughts towards me that he shouldn't have.
Danzo......Orochimaru......
Can't beat it.
Uchiha Tunan considers himself to be broad-minded and not a grudge-bearing person.
Uchiha Tunan would be happy to join them if they were willing to accept him.
At this time, the Great Elder and Uchiha Fugaku rushed outside the small courtyard first.
"This is..." Uchiha Fugaku frowned as he looked at the fire.
"Looks like we're late."
The great elder said with an ugly expression.
Suddenly, the two of them raised their eyebrows, and a hint of joy flashed in their eyes.
"Um?"
Clear footsteps sounded in the sea of fire.
"Tap, step, step..."
Uchiha Tunan's figure walked out of the sea of fire calmly. The moment he walked out of the small courtyard, the house behind him suddenly collapsed.
Rumble~
The great elder expressed concern: "Tunan, are you okay?"
At the same time, the Jonin from behind also arrived here, and a large number of Uchiha ninjas arrived one after another.
Uchiha Tunan's figure looked so thin against the raging sea of fire.
But everyone present did not dare to underestimate Uchiha Tunan.
Uchiha Tunan and the Great Elder quietly looked at each other, then adjusted their glasses with an apologetic expression, bowed deeply to everyone and said:
"I'm really sorry. There was too much noise and it disturbed everyone's rest."
Uchiha Fugaku hurriedly asked: "What happened? Is there another spy in the enemy village?"
Uchiha Tunan calmly shook his head and said: "No comment, this matter needs to be reported to the Hokage first."
As soon as these words came out, the Uchiha ninjas who came over all went crazy.
"Damn it, we came here in the middle of the night."
"Hmph, Great Elder, clan leader, let's go, don't worry about this brat."
"That's right, this guy who betrayed his tribe doesn't care what he does whether he lives or lives."
.......
The great elder had already determined in his heart that Uchiha Tunan was hiding himself, so he narrowed his eyes and said:
"Tu Nan, everyone is also worried about your safety. Don't you even trust your clan members?"
Uchiha Tunan didn't speak, just stood silently.
The great elder glanced at the pillar of fire that was already extinguishing, and then at Uchiha Tunan who was staring at him.
There was a hint of fanaticism in his eyes.
Strength, wisdom, and the ability to endure are simply gifts from God to the Uchiha clan.
The Uchiha people present looked very angry, and they were all shouting.
But without Uchiha Fugaku and the Great Elder speaking, they could only try their best to endure.
It's not a good idea to leave. If you stay, you'll feel hot on your face and cold on your butt.
Uncomfortable.
Suddenly, the great elder's expression changed slightly, a kind and gentle smile appeared on his face, and he said to Uchiha Tunan:
"Tu Nan, the clan members actually care about you very much, but they don't speak nicely. Don't take it to heart."
At this moment, a group of ANBU appeared not far away.
"Tunan, are you okay?"
The ANBU stepped aside one after another, and Sarutobi Hiruzen, dressed in casual clothes, walked out from behind with a look of deep worry and concern.
Uchiha Tunan's eyes lit up, and a warm smile appeared on his face: "Hokage-sama, I'm fine."
Sarutobi Hiruzen inadvertently glanced at the two books held by Uchiha Toonan under his arm, and said with a lingering fear:
"I just heard the news and rushed over immediately. Fortunately, you are okay. Who attacked you."
Uchiha Tunan pursed his lips, as if he had something to hide.
"Tunan, Lord Hokage is here, you can speak now.
Don’t you, as a member of your tribe, even have the right to know? "
The great elder drama queen came online and said with a gloomy look.
Uchiha Tunan glanced at the great elder, and then turned his attention to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and said:
"Say it."
Uchiha Tunan then spoke:
"The opponent is a ninja dressed as an ANBU, and his ninjutsu is all about insects.
He said he was from the root and that a man named Danzo wanted to see me.
I had never heard of Danzo, so when I refused his request, he attacked me. "
Well done!
The great elder was overjoyed, thinking that Uchiha Tunan was deliberately trying to sow discord among the higher-ups in Konoha.
Faking anger at Sarutobi Hiruzen, he said:
"Lord Hokage, should we Uchiha give us an explanation?
What is the motive behind the people from the Roots sneaking up on the genius of the Uchiha clan late at night? "
Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, but he never thought that the roots would be responsible for this.
But after thinking about it carefully, there is really a 98% chance.
Originally, Sarutobi Hiruzen planned to have the ANBU use water escape to extinguish the fire and take out the enemy's corpse for inspection.
Now I am a little hesitant.
Danzo, you did a good job!
"The Anbu will investigate the specific situation. If the facts are true, I will naturally act in accordance with the rules of the village."
Sarutobi Hiruzen was extremely dissatisfied with Danzo. He reached out and touched Uchiha Tunan's hair, and said with concern:
"Tunan, now that your home has been destroyed, have you considered moving to another place to live?"
The great elder was really anxious now and quickly spoke:
"Lord Hokage, Tunan is a member of the Uchiha clan. His home is gone. The Uchiha clan can give him a house in the center of the clan.
Could it be that Lord Hokage wants to split our Uchiha clan? "
So why are you serious? You didn't see that I was just joking.
Sarutobi Hiruzen naturally knew that it was impossible to get Uchiha Tunan out of the Uchiha clan.
He said this just to deepen Uchiha Tunan's good impression of him.
At this time, Uchiha Tunan shrank slightly behind Sarutobi Hiruzen, looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a hopeful look on his face.
Sarutobi Hiruzen lowered his head and looked into Uchiha Tunan's eyes, sighed and said:
"I didn't think it through well. My child, just follow your elder's arrangements."
Uchiha Tunan pursed his lips and nodded obediently.
"If nothing is wrong, Tunan, just come with me and I will take you to your new residence."
The great elder said coldly, and then waved to Uchiha Tunan.
"Hokage-sama, I'm leaving then."
"Go ahead."
Uchiha Tunan glanced at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a nostalgic look on his face, and then walked out from behind Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Looking at Uchiha Tunan's back following the great elder towards the center of the clan, Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
This kid is so sensible and heartwarming.
