"Do you know that Konoha is about to go to war with other ninja villages?" Shimura Danzo suddenly lowered his voice and said, his two companions were shocked, and Sarutobi Hiruzen asked in a low voice: "Where did you hear that?" of?"
"I accidentally learned about this from my parents' conversation when I went home for lunch. I heard that Hokage-sama held a meeting today to call the heads of Konoha's various departments to let them secretly prepare for the battle."
"The battle is about to start!" Hiruzaru Sarutobi said longingly: "It would be great if I could also go to the battlefield. When the time comes to show my power and wipe out all the enemies, I can become Konoha's hero!"
"Stop daydreaming, it's up to you?" Shimura Danzo said with contempt, and then he couldn't help but think: "If I go to the battlefield, I must be the one who becomes the hero!"
Facing the daydreams of the two companions, Uchiha Kagami next to them directly poured cold water on them and said: "We are just freshmen who have just entered school, and we don't have any experience in performing missions. It is impossible for the village to send us to the battlefield."
After finishing speaking, Jing sighed regretfully. In fact, he really wanted to go to the battlefield to prove himself to Mr. Madara.
"Cut—it's boring." Hiruzaru Sarutobi said disappointedly, he suddenly recalled and shouted: "By the way, Madara-sensei will be our guide Jōnin in the future, right? Let's ask Madara-sensei to take us on a mission Well, now that you have the experience of performing missions, you will be able to go to the battlefield during the war."
Hiruzaru Sarutobi happily suggested that Shimura Danzo and Uchiha Kagami's eyes lit up, and they nodded together in agreement with his idea.
Mr. Asai, who was grading the students' homework, sighed helplessly. War is not a game. It is about seeing blood to death. Children nowadays really don't have a sense of urgency. Let the principal educate these ignorant children well.
After school, Madara was reviewing documents in the office, when Hiruzaru Sarutobi rushed in and shouted, "Teacher, I want to carry out the task!"
"Executing the mission?" Madara put down the document in his hand and looked at Hiruzaru Sarutobi in confusion, not knowing what he suddenly wanted to do, even if he wanted to be a ninja, he would have to stay in school for a full semester, and it's less than three days since the start of school I was too impatient to graduate.
"I heard that the village is about to start a war with other ninja villages, so I thought—" Hiruzaru Sarutobi frowned and asked before finishing speaking, "This is a secret in the village, where did you hear about it?"
Danzo Shimura, who came in with Kagami Uchiha, immediately had a guilty expression on his face. If Mr. Madara pursues it, not only will he be unlucky, but his parents may also be held accountable!
As soon as Madara saw Danzo's expression, he knew who picked the head. He didn't intend to delve into it. He sat on the chair and said, "You are just students now. The most important thing is to study. When you graduate from the ninja school, you will naturally be rejected." Assign tasks, don't worry now."
Hiruzaru Sarutobi immediately shouted eagerly: "When I graduate, the war will be over long ago. I want to perform missions to accumulate experience now, and then I can go to the battlefield to protect the village during the war later! Kagami and Danzo also have the same idea. "
Danzo Shimura and Kagami Uchiha nodded in agreement to express their thoughts. Madara looked at the three whimsical students in front of him and said a little unhappy: "If Konoha is reduced to the point where you children are required to go to the battlefield, Makoto and I You should find a piece of tofu and smash it to death. What do you brats think of war? Is it a game? With your current strength on the battlefield, you will definitely be GAME OVER, and there must be a limit to your overreaching!"
The three of them bowed their heads in shame when they heard his reprimand. Madara felt that his tone was a bit heavy, so he stood up and went to squat in front of Hirizan, Kagami, and Danzo, and then stretched out his arms to hold them in his arms. Slowing down the voice, he said: "You will all become outstanding ninjas in the future and Konoha's most precious wealth, so everyone should cherish your life, and only when you have enough strength can you go to the battlefield to protect the village. Before, it was our adults’ responsibility to protect Konoha and you growing successors of the Will of Fire, don’t worry, you will always grow up, and then take over the important task of protecting Konoha from Hashirama and me.”
"When I grow up, I must become Hokage to protect the village and everyone in the village." Hiruzaru Sarutobi shouted loudly, his eyes sparkled brightly, and he felt his blood boiling.
Not to be outdone, Shimura Danzo shouted: "Don't take my lines every time, the one who will become Hokage in the future must be me! I will protect the village even if I die!"
"I just want to take over the teacher's position as Konoha's supervisor, and then protect the village with Hirazan and Danzo." Uchiha Kagami said shyly, being hugged by the most respected and admired teacher filled his heart happiness.
"I believe you will live up to my expectations." Madara said with a smile.After a pause, he continued: "Since you want to do the task, then I'll help you apply. It can be regarded as the benefit of being my student."
The three children's eyes lit up, and then they cheered together, and they couldn't help but look forward to the bright future of performing tasks like adults.
Under the blue sky, Madara sat in the shade of a tree and looked at the documents in his hands leisurely, while his three students were cleaning up the weeds in the medicine field not far away. After two hours, they finally cleaned up the weeds in the medicine field. After pulling out the grass, Hiruzaru Sarutobi wiped the sweat off his forehead, and then called to Uchiha Madara: "Teacher, the task of weeding is completed, what is the next task?"
"The next task? Let me see." Madara took out the notepad and flipped through it, then said, "The next task is to clear the garbage in the river."
Hiruzaru Sarutobi immediately had a hash mark on his forehead, jumped up and shouted: "Teacher, why do you always apply for tasks like weeding and picking up trash? After doing it for so many days, I'm so bored! "
"What exactly is Hirizhan complaining about? You must know that you are just Konoha freshmen who have been enrolled for less than a month. If I hadn't applied to Hokage, you would not even be qualified to perform this kind of D-level task."
Madara said it as a matter of course, but Hiruzaru Sarutobi couldn't help jumping his feet and said: "We all have the level of ninja, at least perform some tasks of escorting and fighting bandits! That is the task that a ninja should perform!!! !"
"Even Shinobi did these simple tasks at the beginning. If it weren't for the fact that you are too young, I would have taken over the task of taking care of the children."
The three children were speechless for a while when they heard his words. At this moment, a masked Anbu suddenly appeared in front of Uchiha Madara and knelt on one knee and said, "Madara-sama, Hokage-sama please."
If it was a private matter, Hashirama would never invite him over so formally, so Zema knew that Hashirama had a business to look for him, so he didn't delay, so he handed a scroll of missions to Uchiha mirror and said: "You guys first Go to the mission, I'll go there later."
"Yes, teacher." Kagami took the quest scroll and said obediently, Madara patted his head lovingly, and then flew towards the Hokage Administration Building.
When he came to Hokage's office, he found a graceful young woman in a kimono with a five or six-year-old child standing in the room. She seemed to be crying to Hashirama, her face was full of tears, and she was crying pear blossoms with rain , as for Senju Hashirama, he comforted the woman softly, as if he cared about her very much, watching the ambiguous atmosphere between the two, Madara worked hard not to let himself make up the scene in front of him into the woman who was outside Hashirama. Bring the illegitimate son to him.
Hashirama seemed to be afraid of Madara's misunderstanding, and when he saw him walk in the door, he hurriedly said, "Madara, let me introduce you, these two are Mrs. Sakurai and her son Sakurai Tomokazu, and I hope you can escort them here this time." Go to the country of thunder."
Madara frowned at Hashirama's words. You must know that now is a critical period, and the four ninja villages might attack Konoha at some point. It was obvious that he came here hoping that he could accept the entrustment, and the relationship between the two was indeed extraordinary.
Although he was full of doubts about the relationship between Hashirama and Mrs. Sakurai, it is not easy to ask directly at this time, so Madara suppressed the doubts in his heart and confirmed: "Master Hokage's opinion is——"
"I hope you can accept this task." Hashirama said, with a rare pleading look in his eyes.
Now that Hashirama had made a decision, Madara didn't want to refute him in front of outsiders, so he nodded in agreement and said, "Okay, I accept this task."
He immediately said to the task entrusting person: "Mrs. Sakurai, please go back and have a good rest. Gather at the entrance of the village at [-] o'clock tomorrow morning. I will personally escort your mother and son to the Land of Thunder."
"Then I'll take care of it tomorrow." Mrs. Sakurai saluted, and then took a resentful and reluctant look at Senju Hashirama before leaving Hokage's office with her child.
As soon as there was no outsider in the room, Madara immediately sat on the desk in Senju Bashirama and asked very uncomfortable: "What's the matter with that woman?"
"Mrs. Sakurai is the main wife of the wealthy businessman Sakurai Hiroki from the land of thunder. Her relationship with her husband is not very good. After giving birth to the next heir of the Sakurai family, she brought her twin daughters to recuperate from her illness. Not long ago, Sakurai Hiroki was critically ill. Mrs. Sakurai was assassinated on the way back to the Land of Thunder with her child, and her only daughter was also killed. She and her son were lucky. After escaping from danger, she came to Konoha and asked us to send someone to escort her to the country of thunder, because Madara enjoys a reputation in the five major countries, so she specially entrusted you to protect the safety of her mother and child along the way."
Although Hashirama stated the client's identity and back in a formulaic tone, Madara still sensed the sympathy and sadness in Hashirama's heart from his subtle behavior, and he was really unusual for that woman.
Thinking of this, Madara became more and more unhappy, and looked sideways at Senju Bashirama and said in a casual tone: "It must be another assassination incident for the sake of fighting for inheritance. That Mrs. Sakurai should know who is the mastermind behind it." .”
"Ms. Sakurai has already said that the mastermind behind the scenes is Sakurai Hiroki's concubine, and she has just given birth to a son. As long as Sakurai Tomokazu, the legal heir, dies, all the inheritance will be inherited by that concubine's son. Madara, I’ve worked hard on your trip, as long as Xun arrives safely at Sakurai’s main residence, you’ll be safe.”
Hashirama inadvertently called Mrs. Sakurai's name, and Madara immediately said sourly: "Xun? It's really a nice name. Call her by her name so casually. You are very familiar with that Mrs. Sakurai."
Hashirama hurriedly explained: "She and I are just ordinary friends, don't think too much about it."
"I don't think too much. You are the one who is anxious to explain. You know my rules. Be strict with confession, and stricter with resistance. Tell me, what happened to you and that man named Xun? What? She looked at you with resentment just now."
"Don't get me wrong, Xun and I really have nothing. Seven years ago, the Thousand Hands Clan received an entrustment to protect the Patriarch of the Kamikawa family in the Land of Earth. At that time, I led the team to carry out this task. I met there Xun who is married is the only daughter of the head of the Shenchuan family. She has always been loved. For some reason, she fell in love with me and even offered to show her love. I made it clear that I already had a fiancée and rejected her. Although Xun was very sad But she still blesses me, she is a good girl with a kind heart, but the fact that she showed her love to me was known by other people for some reason, and it spread all over the city. Not long after that, she was forced to marry Hiroki Sakurai, a wealthy businessman from the Land of Thunder who had business dealings with the Kamigawa family and was old enough to be her father, and I have always felt guilty about her—”
"So you asked me to protect Konoha to go to the Land of Thunder to make up for your guilt at this critical moment about Konoha's survival." Madara said a little bluntly, and Hashirama hugged his shoulders flatteringly and said: "No So serious, according to the information sent back by the surveillance personnel, the Shinobi villages in the other four countries are still relatively calm at present, even if they really want to attack Konoha, they will not be so fast, so I will agree to Kaoru’s commission, Madara, please is you."
"Hmph, I see." Madara snorted coldly and pulled his hand away. Although it wasn't Hashirama's fault, Madara just felt very uncomfortable.
Seeing that Madara was about to leave, Senju Hashima immediately said: "There is one more thing, because Sakurai Tomokazu witnessed the death of his own sister, so he is a little autistic now, and he doesn't like to talk very much. Kaoru is very worried. I hope we Konoha can Sending a team of ninjas who are about the same age as her son will accompany her, maybe Sakurai Tomokazu will be more cheerful when he is with his peers."
"Does Mrs. Xun think that genius ninjas are everywhere like Chinese cabbage? Do you think there are five or six-year-old ninjas in our Konoha?"
Hashirama said with confidence: "You can send our students out. Hirzen and Danzo are both very qualified. It would be good to exercise properly."
Thinking of Sarutobi Hiruzen's resentful eyes that were comparable to Mrs. Xun's every time he performed a D-level task, Mottle nodded and said, "Alright, let those children exercise, by the way, you prepare three forehead guards for me. "
Leaving Hokage's office, Madara came to the three students who were performing a D-level mission and told them about it. Hizaki and the others who were picking up trash in the river immediately cheered when they heard the news, chattering around Madara Tongue to ask specific matters.
After clarifying the specifics of the task, Madara took out the three brand-new helmets he got from Hashirama and said solemnly: "Although you have not graduated yet, you must wear the Konoha logo for tomorrow's task. So I applied for the forehead protection for you, put it on, remember, you who wear the forehead protection are no longer children, but a real ninja, don’t embarrass Konoha.”
"I won't lose Konoha's face. I, Sarutobi Hirzen, will become Hokage's man in the future." Sarutobi took the forehead guard and shouted confidently, and then said very expectantly: "Mr. If we get the forehead protection, then we will be Konoha's official ninjas from now on, right?"
"Are you dreaming? At least give me a good year to stay in the ninja school before I graduate. These three quotas are only temporarily lent to you, and I will return them after the task is completed."
"You're so stingy." Hiruzaru Sarutobi said in a low voice, Madara immediately reached out to pinch his fat cheeks and pulled them to the sides while laughing dangerously, "I didn't hear what Hiruzaru was talking about."
"Ah~~ I know I was wrong."
Hiruzaru Sarutobi yelled, but Madara let go of his hands and laughed heartily, thinking that it would be quite interesting to bully the future three generations of Hokage once in a while.Uchiha Kagami and Shimura Danzo next to each other were envious of their intimate interaction. Although Madara was very kind to the three students, they both vaguely felt that Madara was different from Hizan.
After laughing, Madara led them to continue to clean up the rubbish in the river, because the high-level task was about to be performed, the three of them were very motivated, and quickly finished this D-level task, Madara looked at the fruits of everyone's labor with satisfaction , After a few words of praise, inform them to gather at the entrance of the village at eight o'clock tomorrow morning.
After finishing speaking, Madara took the task scroll and announced the disbandment. As soon as his words fell, Sarutobi Hiruzen shouted vigorously: "In order to celebrate that we are about to perform a high-level task, the teacher invites us to eat barbecue!"
Before Madara could answer, Uchiha Kagami said very sensiblely: "The teacher's salary is spent on the Uchiha children, so let me treat you. I have enough money for doing tasks these days."
Shimura Danzo next to him couldn't help stabbing his friend, "Hizun is really ignorant, knowing that the teacher is already working hard part-time to make money, but still let him treat him."
"I'm sorry." Hiruzaru Sarutobi apologized regretfully to Madara, and Madara stroked his head and smiled, "Why do you have to apologize? It's only natural for the teacher to invite lovely students to dinner. It's still affordable, let's go to the newly opened barbecue restaurant to celebrate after the next mission is over."
Hearing his considerate and gentle words, Hiruzaru Sarutobi's heart immediately warmed up. Although Madara-sensei always looks very cold in front of others, he is really gentle to them. With a happy expression on his face, it really feels like happiness to be loved by Teacher Madara.
Seeing that it was getting late, Madara told them to go home and take a good rest before handing in the quest with the quest scroll. After he left, Jingzheng was about to say goodbye to his two friends and go home, but suddenly had a headache and almost couldn't even stand steadily. Zhan hurriedly supported him and shouted in concern: "Jing, what's wrong with you?"
Danzo also said worriedly: "Jing's complexion is very bad, do you want to go to the hospital?"
At this time, Uchiha mirror didn't even have the strength to speak, he bit his lip hard and felt his head hurt as if it was about to split open. At the same time, scenes of familiar and strange scenes flashed before his eyes continuously. The picture disappeared, and his headache gradually got better, and then he said weakly: "I'm fine."
"How can you be fine like this? Do you often have headaches?" Danzo asked worriedly, and Hizaru also said worriedly: "Your headache just now is really worrying, you should tell Mr. Madara about it."
"No, you must not tell Madara-sensei." Uchiha Kagami shouted eagerly, seeing the doubtful eyes of the two, he explained with some guilt: "You can't let Madara-sensei know, he will be worried."
"But you always have such a headache that you can't even perform the mission. Once you have a headache during the mission, you don't even know how to die."
Listening to his companion's concerned words, Uchiha mirror hesitated for a while before saying: "Can you accompany me to the Uchiha clan's clan?"
"Uchiha's family land? Why go there? I heard that it has been abandoned." Hiruzaru Sarutobi asked suspiciously, and Danzo immediately figured out the key point, "Is it related to your headache?"
Uchiha mirror nodded and said: "Just now I saw a very strange image, a lively street, a wall with a round fan pattern, and a person wearing a round fan..."
"Could it be that what you saw was the abandoned Uchiha land? Why do you feel strange, haven't you seen it before?"
"My memory of the past is very vague, so I don't know whether I have been to the Uchiha tribe." Mirror said regretfully shaking his head, and then said earnestly: "Will you come with me to see it? I have a faint feeling to go there It can relieve the symptoms of headache."
"Of course it's okay to go with you, we're friends!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said enthusiastically, Danzo also agreed to go together without hesitation, and was very curious about the forbidden place located in a secluded part of the village.
The three children quickly found the Uchiha Clan in the general direction of the rumors. Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the quiet surroundings and said with emotion: "Who thought of building the Clan here? It's too remote. No wonder no one said whoops when people from this family defected en masse!"
Danzo stepped on Hirizhan's foot hard to interrupt him, Hirizhan cried out in pain and remembered that the friend around him was the orphan of the Uchiha clan, he apologized quickly, but Kagami smiled indifferently: "It's okay, teacher I once said that we don’t have to feel ashamed of the betrayal of our clansmen, all the children abandoned here by the Uchiha clan are the hope of Konoha’s future, and they can live under the sunshine of Konoha with their heads upright.”
"Sure enough, it's what Madara-sensei would say." Kagami's words made Hirizhan feel relieved, and then asked curiously, "Why did the Uchiha clan betray Konoha? Where are they now?"
"I don't know too well, Madara-sensei doesn't seem to like us asking about the Uchiha clan." Jing shook his head and said, Danzo next to him said a little braggingly: "I know, I heard that the water in Wuyin Village, the country of water, Kage is Madara-sensei's younger brother, and all the rebellious Uchihas have defected to him."
Hiruzaru Sarutobi immediately shouted in disbelief: "Really? Mizukage is as great a ninja as our Hashirama-sensei, right? How could he be Madara-sensei's younger brother? I've never heard him mention it before."
"Yeah, it's also very strange to know this. Why did Mr. Madara stay in Konoha instead of going to the country of water to be with the tribe? Most people would want to live with the tribe." Danzo said doubtfully , the other two children were also at a loss, and they couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Don't think about it, let's go in and take a look." Jing said first, and then pushed open the closed door. What was displayed in front of the three of them was a spacious street with neat houses on both sides of the street, and the imaginary deserted scene It was different, except for the fact that the leaves on the ground looked a bit bleak, the surrounding houses were very new, and there was no sense of decay.
Sarutobi Hirzen looked at the neat houses in front of him and said with emotion: "It's so big, it's even bigger than a small Ninja Village. The Uchiha clan was really prosperous in Konoha before."
"Jing, you should have lived here before, don't you remember?" Danzo looked at his friend and asked, but found that Jing's body was trembling faintly. He looked at the familiar house in front of him and said in an uncontrollable trembling voice: "I have the impression that I have been here, with my parents, the direction of my home should be—"
As he spoke, he walked towards one direction as if in a dream, Hiruzaru Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura looked at him with some concern, and then followed Kagami.
After a while, Uchiha mirror came to the home where he used to live. He opened the door and walked into the entrance. Looking at the familiar furnishings in front of him, it became more and more difficult to control his excitement. When he saw a family portrait hanging in the house, The memory sealed by Uchiha Madara suddenly broke through the seal and filled his brain, and all the past was remembered at once. He is not the orphan of the Uchiha clan, his parents are still alive, it is Uchiha Madara who migrated in the whole clan On the way to the country of water, all children under the age of four were forcibly left behind. He even clearly remembered how his parents were going crazy when he was snatched away from his parents by Uchiha Madara. However, this is not the most painful thing for Kagami The most painful thing is that the teacher he admired and respected so much did such a cruel thing, Jing felt that his world collapsed all of a sudden...

"I accidentally learned about this from my parents' conversation when I went home for lunch. I heard that Hokage-sama held a meeting today to call the heads of Konoha's various departments to let them secretly prepare for the battle."
"The battle is about to start!" Hiruzaru Sarutobi said longingly: "It would be great if I could also go to the battlefield. When the time comes to show my power and wipe out all the enemies, I can become Konoha's hero!"
"Stop daydreaming, it's up to you?" Shimura Danzo said with contempt, and then he couldn't help but think: "If I go to the battlefield, I must be the one who becomes the hero!"
Facing the daydreams of the two companions, Uchiha Kagami next to them directly poured cold water on them and said: "We are just freshmen who have just entered school, and we don't have any experience in performing missions. It is impossible for the village to send us to the battlefield."

"Cut—it's boring." Hiruzaru Sarutobi said disappointedly, he suddenly recalled and shouted: "By the way, Madara-sensei will be our guide Jōnin in the future, right?

Hiruzaru Sarutobi happily suggested that Shimura Danzo and Uchiha Kagami's eyes lit up, and they nodded together in agreement with his idea.
Mr. Asai, who was grading the students' homework, sighed helplessly. War is not a game. It is about seeing blood to death. Children nowadays really don't have a sense of urgency. Let the principal educate these ignorant children well.
After school, Madara was reviewing documents in the office, when Hiruzaru Sarutobi rushed in and shouted, "Teacher, I want to carry out the task!"

"I heard that the village is about to start a war with other ninja villages, so I thought—" Hiruzaru Sarutobi frowned and asked before finishing speaking, "This is a secret in the village, where did you hear about it?"
Danzo Shimura, who came in with Kagami Uchiha, immediately had a guilty expression on his face. If Mr. Madara pursues it, not only will he be unlucky, but his parents may also be held accountable!
As soon as Madara saw Danzo's expression, he knew who picked the head. He didn't intend to delve into it. He sat on the chair and said, "You are just students now. The most important thing is to study. When you graduate from the ninja school, you will naturally be rejected." Assign tasks, don't worry now."

"When I grow up, I must become Hokage to protect the village and everyone in the village." Hiruzaru Sarutobi shouted loudly, his eyes sparkled brightly, and he felt his blood boiling.
Not to be outdone, Shimura Danzo shouted: "Don't take my lines every time, the one who will become Hokage in the future must be me! I will protect the village even if I die!"
"I just want to take over the teacher's position as Konoha's supervisor, and then protect the village with Hirazan and Danzo." Uchiha Kagami said shyly, being hugged by the most respected and admired teacher filled his heart happiness.

Madara frowned at Hashirama's words. You must know that now is a critical period, and the four ninja villages might attack Konoha at some point. It was obvious that he came here hoping that he could accept the entrustment, and the relationship between the two was indeed extraordinary.
Although he was full of doubts about the relationship between Hashirama and Mrs. Sakurai, it is not easy to ask directly at this time, so Madara suppressed the doubts in his heart and confirmed: "Master Hokage's opinion is——"

He immediately said to the task entrusting person: "Mrs. Sakurai, please go back and have a good rest. Gather at the entrance of the village at [-] o'clock tomorrow morning. I will personally escort your mother and son to the Land of Thunder."
"Then I'll take care of it tomorrow." Mrs. Sakurai saluted, and then took a resentful and reluctant look at Senju Hashirama before leaving Hokage's office with her child.
As soon as there was no outsider in the room, Madara immediately sat on the desk in Senju Bashirama and asked very uncomfortable: "What's the matter with that woman?"
"Mrs. Sakurai is the main wife of the wealthy businessman Sakurai Hiroki from the land of thunder. Her relationship with her husband is not very good. After giving birth to the next heir of the Sakurai family, she brought her twin daughters to recuperate from her illness. Not long ago, Sakurai Hiroki was critically ill. Mrs. Sakurai was assassinated on the way back to the Land of Thunder with her child, and her only daughter was also killed. She and her son were lucky. After escaping from danger, she came to Konoha and asked us to send someone to escort her to the country of thunder, because Madara enjoys a reputation in the five major countries, so she specially entrusted you to protect the safety of her mother and child along the way."
Although Hashirama stated the client's identity and back in a formulaic tone, Madara still sensed the sympathy and sadness in Hashirama's heart from his subtle behavior, and he was really unusual for that woman.
Thinking of this, Madara became more and more unhappy, and looked sideways at Senju Bashirama and said in a casual tone: "It must be another assassination incident for the sake of fighting for inheritance. That Mrs. Sakurai should know who is the mastermind behind it." .”
"Ms. Sakurai has already said that the mastermind behind the scenes is Sakurai Hiroki's concubine, and she has just given birth to a son. As long as Sakurai Tomokazu, the legal heir, dies, all the inheritance will be inherited by that concubine's son. Madara, I’ve worked hard on your trip, as long as Xun arrives safely at Sakurai’s main residence, you’ll be safe.”
Hashirama inadvertently called Mrs. Sakurai's name, and Madara immediately said sourly: "Xun? It's really a nice name. Call her by her name so casually. You are very familiar with that Mrs. Sakurai."
Hashirama hurriedly explained: "She and I are just ordinary friends, don't think too much about it."
"I don't think too much. You are the one who is anxious to explain. You know my rules. Be strict with confession, and stricter with resistance. Tell me, what happened to you and that man named Xun? What? She looked at you with resentment just now."
"Don't get me wrong, Xun and I really have nothing. Seven years ago, the Thousand Hands Clan received an entrustment to protect the Patriarch of the Kamikawa family in the Land of Earth. At that time, I led the team to carry out this task. I met there Xun who is married is the only daughter of the head of the Shenchuan family. She has always been loved. For some reason, she fell in love with me and even offered to show her love. I made it clear that I already had a fiancée and rejected her. Although Xun was very sad But she still blesses me, she is a good girl with a kind heart, but the fact that she showed her love to me was known by other people for some reason, and it spread all over the city. Not long after that, she was forced to marry Hiroki Sakurai, a wealthy businessman from the Land of Thunder who had business dealings with the Kamigawa family and was old enough to be her father, and I have always felt guilty about her—”
"So you asked me to protect Konoha to go to the Land of Thunder to make up for your guilt at this critical moment about Konoha's survival." Madara said a little bluntly, and Hashirama hugged his shoulders flatteringly and said: "No So serious, according to the information sent back by the surveillance personnel, the Shinobi villages in the other four countries are still relatively calm at present, even if they really want to attack Konoha, they will not be so fast, so I will agree to Kaoru’s commission, Madara, please is you."
"Hmph, I see." Madara snorted coldly and pulled his hand away. Although it wasn't Hashirama's fault, Madara just felt very uncomfortable.
Seeing that Madara was about to leave, Senju Hashima immediately said: "There is one more thing, because Sakurai Tomokazu witnessed the death of his own sister, so he is a little autistic now, and he doesn't like to talk very much. Kaoru is very worried. I hope we Konoha can Sending a team of ninjas who are about the same age as her son will accompany her, maybe Sakurai Tomokazu will be more cheerful when he is with his peers."
"Does Mrs. Xun think that genius ninjas are everywhere like Chinese cabbage? Do you think there are five or six-year-old ninjas in our Konoha?"
Hashirama said with confidence: "You can send our students out. Hirzen and Danzo are both very qualified. It would be good to exercise properly."
Thinking of Sarutobi Hiruzen's resentful eyes that were comparable to Mrs. Xun's every time he performed a D-level task, Mottle nodded and said, "Alright, let those children exercise, by the way, you prepare three forehead guards for me. "
Leaving Hokage's office, Madara came to the three students who were performing a D-level mission and told them about it. Hizaki and the others who were picking up trash in the river immediately cheered when they heard the news, chattering around Madara Tongue to ask specific matters.
After clarifying the specifics of the task, Madara took out the three brand-new helmets he got from Hashirama and said solemnly: "Although you have not graduated yet, you must wear the Konoha logo for tomorrow's task. So I applied for the forehead protection for you, put it on, remember, you who wear the forehead protection are no longer children, but a real ninja, don’t embarrass Konoha.”
"I won't lose Konoha's face. I, Sarutobi Hirzen, will become Hokage's man in the future." Sarutobi took the forehead guard and shouted confidently, and then said very expectantly: "Mr. If we get the forehead protection, then we will be Konoha's official ninjas from now on, right?"
"Are you dreaming? At least give me a good year to stay in the ninja school before I graduate. These three quotas are only temporarily lent to you, and I will return them after the task is completed."
"You're so stingy." Hiruzaru Sarutobi said in a low voice, Madara immediately reached out to pinch his fat cheeks and pulled them to the sides while laughing dangerously, "I didn't hear what Hiruzaru was talking about."
"Ah~~ I know I was wrong."
Hiruzaru Sarutobi yelled, but Madara let go of his hands and laughed heartily, thinking that it would be quite interesting to bully the future three generations of Hokage once in a while.Uchiha Kagami and Shimura Danzo next to each other were envious of their intimate interaction. Although Madara was very kind to the three students, they both vaguely felt that Madara was different from Hizan.
After laughing, Madara led them to continue to clean up the rubbish in the river, because the high-level task was about to be performed, the three of them were very motivated, and quickly finished this D-level task, Madara looked at the fruits of everyone's labor with satisfaction , After a few words of praise, inform them to gather at the entrance of the village at eight o'clock tomorrow morning.
After finishing speaking, Madara took the task scroll and announced the disbandment. As soon as his words fell, Sarutobi Hiruzen shouted vigorously: "In order to celebrate that we are about to perform a high-level task, the teacher invites us to eat barbecue!"
Before Madara could answer, Uchiha Kagami said very sensiblely: "The teacher's salary is spent on the Uchiha children, so let me treat you. I have enough money for doing tasks these days."
Shimura Danzo next to him couldn't help stabbing his friend, "Hizun is really ignorant, knowing that the teacher is already working hard part-time to make money, but still let him treat him."
"I'm sorry." Hiruzaru Sarutobi apologized regretfully to Madara, and Madara stroked his head and smiled, "Why do you have to apologize? It's only natural for the teacher to invite lovely students to dinner. It's still affordable, let's go to the newly opened barbecue restaurant to celebrate after the next mission is over."
Hearing his considerate and gentle words, Hiruzaru Sarutobi's heart immediately warmed up. Although Madara-sensei always looks very cold in front of others, he is really gentle to them. With a happy expression on his face, it really feels like happiness to be loved by Teacher Madara.
Seeing that it was getting late, Madara told them to go home and take a good rest before handing in the quest with the quest scroll. After he left, Jingzheng was about to say goodbye to his two friends and go home, but suddenly had a headache and almost couldn't even stand steadily. Zhan hurriedly supported him and shouted in concern: "Jing, what's wrong with you?"
Danzo also said worriedly: "Jing's complexion is very bad, do you want to go to the hospital?"
At this time, Uchiha mirror didn't even have the strength to speak, he bit his lip hard and felt his head hurt as if it was about to split open. At the same time, scenes of familiar and strange scenes flashed before his eyes continuously. The picture disappeared, and his headache gradually got better, and then he said weakly: "I'm fine."
"How can you be fine like this? Do you often have headaches?" Danzo asked worriedly, and Hizaru also said worriedly: "Your headache just now is really worrying, you should tell Mr. Madara about it."
"No, you must not tell Madara-sensei." Uchiha Kagami shouted eagerly, seeing the doubtful eyes of the two, he explained with some guilt: "You can't let Madara-sensei know, he will be worried."
"But you always have such a headache that you can't even perform the mission. Once you have a headache during the mission, you don't even know how to die."
Listening to his companion's concerned words, Uchiha mirror hesitated for a while before saying: "Can you accompany me to the Uchiha clan's clan?"
"Uchiha's family land? Why go there? I heard that it has been abandoned." Hiruzaru Sarutobi asked suspiciously, and Danzo immediately figured out the key point, "Is it related to your headache?"
Uchiha mirror nodded and said: "Just now I saw a very strange image, a lively street, a wall with a round fan pattern, and a person wearing a round fan..."
"Could it be that what you saw was the abandoned Uchiha land? Why do you feel strange, haven't you seen it before?"
"My memory of the past is very vague, so I don't know whether I have been to the Uchiha tribe." Mirror said regretfully shaking his head, and then said earnestly: "Will you come with me to see it? I have a faint feeling to go there It can relieve the symptoms of headache."
"Of course it's okay to go with you, we're friends!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said enthusiastically, Danzo also agreed to go together without hesitation, and was very curious about the forbidden place located in a secluded part of the village.
The three children quickly found the Uchiha Clan in the general direction of the rumors. Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the quiet surroundings and said with emotion: "Who thought of building the Clan here? It's too remote. No wonder no one said whoops when people from this family defected en masse!"
Danzo stepped on Hirizhan's foot hard to interrupt him, Hirizhan cried out in pain and remembered that the friend around him was the orphan of the Uchiha clan, he apologized quickly, but Kagami smiled indifferently: "It's okay, teacher I once said that we don’t have to feel ashamed of the betrayal of our clansmen, all the children abandoned here by the Uchiha clan are the hope of Konoha’s future, and they can live under the sunshine of Konoha with their heads upright.”
"Sure enough, it's what Madara-sensei would say." Kagami's words made Hirizhan feel relieved, and then asked curiously, "Why did the Uchiha clan betray Konoha? Where are they now?"
"I don't know too well, Madara-sensei doesn't seem to like us asking about the Uchiha clan." Jing shook his head and said, Danzo next to him said a little braggingly: "I know, I heard that the water in Wuyin Village, the country of water, Kage is Madara-sensei's younger brother, and all the rebellious Uchihas have defected to him."
Hiruzaru Sarutobi immediately shouted in disbelief: "Really? Mizukage is as great a ninja as our Hashirama-sensei, right? How could he be Madara-sensei's younger brother? I've never heard him mention it before."
"Yeah, it's also very strange to know this. Why did Mr. Madara stay in Konoha instead of going to the country of water to be with the tribe? Most people would want to live with the tribe." Danzo said doubtfully , the other two children were also at a loss, and they couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Don't think about it, let's go in and take a look." Jing said first, and then pushed open the closed door. What was displayed in front of the three of them was a spacious street with neat houses on both sides of the street, and the imaginary deserted scene It was different, except for the fact that the leaves on the ground looked a bit bleak, the surrounding houses were very new, and there was no sense of decay.
Sarutobi Hirzen looked at the neat houses in front of him and said with emotion: "It's so big, it's even bigger than a small Ninja Village. The Uchiha clan was really prosperous in Konoha before."
"Jing, you should have lived here before, don't you remember?" Danzo looked at his friend and asked, but found that Jing's body was trembling faintly. He looked at the familiar house in front of him and said in an uncontrollable trembling voice: "I have the impression that I have been here, with my parents, the direction of my home should be—"
As he spoke, he walked towards one direction as if in a dream, Hiruzaru Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura looked at him with some concern, and then followed Kagami.
After a while, Uchiha mirror came to the home where he used to live. He opened the door and walked into the entrance. Looking at the familiar furnishings in front of him, it became more and more difficult to control his excitement. When he saw a family portrait hanging in the house, The memory sealed by Uchiha Madara suddenly broke through the seal and filled his brain, and all the past was remembered at once. He is not the orphan of the Uchiha clan, his parents are still alive, it is Uchiha Madara who migrated in the whole clan On the way to the country of water, all children under the age of four were forcibly left behind. He even clearly remembered how his parents were going crazy when he was snatched away from his parents by Uchiha Madara. However, this is not the most painful thing for Kagami The most painful thing is that the teacher he admired and respected so much did such a cruel thing, Jing felt that his world collapsed all of a sudden...
