Ch 32: Uchiha clan leader bewitching

After leaving Hyuga Himeji, Tatsumi returned to his own home alone.

For him, comforting Hyuga Himeji was just a small favor he did casually.

As for what kind of fruit it will bear in the future, it is beyond his control.

Perhaps Hyuga Himeji can really become Hokage and change the Hyuga clan.

Tatsumi returned along the same route. He was no longer interested in taking a walk. His previously relaxed mood became somewhat heavy again.

Time is always high above; it overlooks our lives, manipulating the stories of everyone's birth, death, and separation.

It makes the most lively people silent, makes the most tenacious waiting tasteless, and makes the most sensitive souls dull.

And we are powerless to resist.

Tatsumi walked toward his house.

"Who?" Tatsumi narrowed his eyes, revealing a vigilant look.

Just now, a faint aura locked onto him.

Swish.

A figure appeared in front of Tatsumi. "So fast!"

Tatsumi looked up.

In front of him was a man in his thirties, wearing the Uchiha clan's unique trench coat, looking at Tatsumi with a stern expression.

Tatsumi's pupils shrank. It seemed that the aura just now was deliberately revealed by the other party.

"Vice-Captain of the Police Force, is there anything you need from me?" Tatsumi's tone revealed an appropriate amount of respect.

That's right, the person in front of him was the vice-captain of the police force managed by the Uchiha clan—Uchiha Han.

As the right-hand man of the Uchiha clan leader, he had been active in the clan for many years.

"Where did you go so late?"

Uchiha Han spoke to Tatsumi in an inscrutable tone.

Tatsumi couldn't feel the other man's attitude.

"I just went out for a walk alone." Tatsumi touched his hair, deliberately showing a somewhat awkward smile in front of an important figure.

"Well, don't be nervous. It's good to go out for a walk after a tiring day of training." Uchiha Han showed a smile of concern for the younger generation.

"The clan leader has something to ask you. Come with me."

Huh?

What's going on tonight? Everyone has something to ask me?

When did I become such an important figure?

Tatsumi had no choice but to follow silently. There were some people that an orphan like him could not resist.

Don't be fooled by his gentle attitude now. As the vice-captain, he had countless lives on his hands.

Uchiha Han deliberately slowed down his speed, obviously afraid that Tatsumi would not be able to keep up with him.

Tatsumi's house was quite far from the clan leader's house.

The clan leader, Uchiha San, lived in the center of the Uchiha clan's territory.

And Tatsumi only lived in the peripheral area.

However, this was Tatsumi's first time going to the clan leader's house. Only here could one clearly feel the foundation of Konoha's number one clan.

This was the life of the rich.

After passing through a long courtyard, a teenager in a practice suit was fighting against a Jonin.

—Uchiha Fugaku.

Tatsumi was very interested in Uchiha Fugaku.

After all, as a man who awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, his talent went without saying. Moreover, he was the father of Uchiha Itachi and Sasuke.

It was just that Tatsumi didn't know whether Itachi and Sasuke would be born in the future.

After all, there was a kind of green called Fugaku green, a boy with the Hulunbuir prairie on his head.

Under the guidance of Uchiha Han, Tatsumi entered a room.

The room was filled with scrolls. Only Uchiha San was sitting there, processing official business.

Uchiha San was almost forty years old. He appeared full of momentum.

Uchiha San was a formidable figure.

This was a man who survived the late Warring States period and the First Shinobi World War.

The experience of the Warring States period had made him develop a sharper style than ordinary ninjas, like a steel knife.

Uchiha San waved his hand, and Uchiha Han immediately retreated.

"Clan Leader." Tatsumi said with his head down.

There was no way around it; he was under someone else's roof. As Tatsumi said, weakness was the original sin.

Even if Tatsumi was a genius now, he was just a student at the Ninja Academy.

"You've come." Uchiha San stopped writing. He raised his head, his eyes scanning Tatsumi.

Tatsumi felt a little breathless under this momentum.

Fortunately, the other party immediately restrained his aura.

"Alright, sit down, child." Uchiha San showed a hearty smile.

"Not bad, not bad. As expected of the Uchiha clan's genius who has been in the limelight recently."

"I can hear rumors about you in the clan. You're really bringing honor to our Uchiha clan." Uchiha San had an expression of caring for the younger generation.

"Back then, I and your father, Uchiha Kagami, were good friends. I was both his teacher and his friend. I didn't expect him to die young." Uchiha San had an expression of sighing.

What a load of crap.

Uchiha Kagami was the disciple of the Second Hokage, so how could he have a good relationship with these conservatives?

Moreover, Tatsumi had been ostracized in the clan all these years, and he had never seen them stand up for him.

If Tatsumi hadn't transmigrated, he might have really been moved.

After all, that sincere old face shed sad tears.

The other party was definitely a powerhouse, and his acting skills were above Tatsumi.

However, Tatsumi still showed a surprised expression on his face.

"You knew my father?"

"Of course, I was your father's best friend back then. He was the number one expert in our Uchiha clan back then, but alas—" Uchiha San dragged out his voice, revealing a sad expression.

Tatsumi cursed inwardly, Old fox.

"Unfortunately what, Clan Leader?"

"Unfortunately, your father was killed." Uchiha San looked angry.

"Impossible! Didn't the Hokage say that my father sacrificed himself during a mission?"

Uchiha San showed an expression of grief and indignation.

"That's right, that's what I thought at first. But later, I felt something was wrong and have been secretly investigating all these years."

"Later, I finally discovered the secret. It turned out that when your father Uchiha Kagami was performing a mission, his information was leaked. So he was ambushed and sacrificed by the enemy."

"Who did it?" Tatsumi asked appropriately.

"It was the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, and the leader of Root, Shimura Danzo."

"After the Second Hokage died in battle, Sarutobi Hiruzen temporarily inherited the position of Third Hokage. But he was too young, and his position was unstable. At that time, your father Uchiha Kagami did his best to help Sarutobi Hiruzen secure his position."

"So Sarutobi Hiruzen was very afraid of the influence of the Uchiha clan. He was afraid that your father would seize power in the future and he would become a puppet. So during one of your father's missions, he joined forces with the current leader of Root, Shimura Danzo, and killed your father."

Uchiha San couldn't help but stand up when he got excited.

"I lost my composure, I lost my composure. Child, we are all of Uchiha blood. Do you think I would lie to you?"

"And look, our Uchiha clan is clearly one of the two founding clans of Konoha Village. The Senju clan has already had two generations of Hokage, but our Uchiha clan is still excluded from the center of power."

"Are you willing to accept this, child? Don't you want to inherit your father's wish and become Hokage?" Uchiha San tempted.

Tatsumi frantically complained in his heart. He had just tempted Hyuga Himeji to become Hokage, and now someone else was tempting him.

This was really…

"So child, if you want to take revenge, your current strength is not enough. You need the help of the clan." Uchiha San's voice came.

"Then what do you need me to do, Clan Leader?" Tatsumi asked with his head down.

Uchiha San pondered for a moment and asked, "You won the top three places today and can choose one of the three Jonin."

"So I hope you can choose Orochimaru."
