Chapter 40 Sarutobi: I'm The Hokage. Danzo: You Will Regret This

"Monkey, what are you hesitating about? The ninja of Uchiha dare to leave the village without permission just to fight with ninjas from other villages. They clearly do not take the village seriously, nor do they face you, the Hokage, with respect!"

"Danzo, you are going too far. I arranged for Anbu's people to keep an eye on the Uchiha clan. No Uchiha were reported leaving the village without authorization. Those outside may not necessarily be Konoha's ninja."

Seeing that his old friend was actually speaking for the inherently evil Uchiha, Danzo's expression turned gloomy.

"Monkey, what do you imply? That's the evil Uchiha. Who knows if they used some method to circumvent your surveillance."

"It's not as dire as you claim, Uchiha is also part of the village."

"You regard them as part of the village. But do they themselves recognize this? From my perspective, the battle happening outside this time must be the Uchiha clan fighting against other villages in Konoha's name.

They are sowing the seeds of conflict, provoking other villages to attack Konoha, allowing the to stage a rebellion.We must suppress and punish the Uchiha to prevent such a thing from happening."

"Danzo, you're delusional."

"Monkey, have you forgotten what the teacher said? Uchiha are a naturally evil people."

"Danzo, have you forgotten Kagami? He died to save you!"

When Danzo mentioned Uchiha Kagami, he felt a sting in his right eye.

"Hiruzen, if you don't suppress the Uchiha clan today, you will regret it in the future!"

"That's enough Danzo, I'm the Hokage!"

"Bang~!"

With a loud noise, Danzo slammed the door and left.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was left alone sitting in the Hokage office.

The sad-looking Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but light up his pipe again and smoked.

Suppressing the Uchiha clan is the policy set by their teacher Senju Tobirama. He also wished to implement the policy, but the current situation is too special, there are wolves lurking in front and a tiger stalking behind. The Uchiha clan is restless, plus there is Uchiha Izuna outside the village just waiting to wreck havoc to the village .

The teacher asked himself to be cautious not to push Uchiha too far, but his friend Danzo did not want to waste any opportunity to suppress the Uchiha clan.

"Huh~!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly exhaled a puff of smoke. Although he was still in his prime, stress slowly but surely accelerated his aging.

"Uchiha Izuna, you are a dead person, the dead should not bother the living."

In the Hokage office, Sarutobi Hiruzen's hair was almost turning gray, Tetsuya on the other hand returned to his own residence in Konoha leisurely.

His old residence had already been dealt with long ago, and when his business picked up, he had already bought himself a single-family house in Konoha.

I am a wealthy businessman , so I can't let myself suffer.

"Teacher, I heard that you are back and we came to see you."

There was a knock on the door, and a familiar call came from outside the door.

"Coming, coming!"

At the moment when the Gate of Opening was opened, Ichisama was stunned for a moment when he looked at the still young Tetsuya in front of him.

"teacher?"

Ichisama looked at Tetsuya in front of him with some doubts.

"Are you the teacher's child?"

He couldn't help but wonder, the person in front of me looks way too similar to the teacher in his memories, almost identical. This can't be the teacher, teacher is obviously one year older than me.

Seeing the uncle-looking figure in front of him, Tetsuya was also stunned for a moment.

I didn't realise that in the blink of an eye, so much time has passed ? The old man who was a little shy and apprenticed to make ramen under to him has turned into an uncle who is forty-six-seven and is about to reach fifty.

Due to the the evil god's immortal body, Tetsuya, like Scorpion who transformed himself into a human puppet, will always stay in his prime, locking his appearance around his teens or early twenties, .

Thinking of this, Tetsuya smiled and said.

"You surprised me, senior Ichisama. I heard my father mentioned you. My name is Chiba Ryo. Senior brother, please come in."

"Chiba Ryo?! You are really the teacher's child. You look exactly like the teacher when he was young."

Ichisama also burst out laughing.

He patted the eleven or twelve-year-old child next to him on the shoulder.

"Ichiraku, quick, call him Uncle Master."

The young man Ichiraku 's eyes widened, he looked at the man in front of him and respectfully called him uncle.

Although Ichisama is only one year younger than Tetsuya, one should never forget the grace of teaching. Even if Tetsuya treated Ichisama as brothers, Ichisama is still Tetsuya's disciple, naturally he is regarded as the same generation as Chiba Ryo. And his son Ichiraku naturally called him "Uncle" when he saw 'Ryo'.

Tetsuya smiled and patted Ichiraku's head.

"Okay, don't stand outside, come in."

"Then, hope we're not intruding."

Inviting the two people in, Tetsuya poured tea to greet them.

Ichisama eyes was full of emotion. He never expected that his teacher's children were so old, much older than his own children.

recalling the past, teacher has developed so well in the capital, he must have been married long ago. When Ichiraku was born, Tetsuya claimed that he was not married yet, this was obviously a lie.

Time flies when chatting and luch time soon arrive. Feeling nostalgic, Tetsuya personally cooked a few dishes to entertain Ichisama and his son.

Ichisama lamented that 'Ryo' had learned the teacher's true essence in cooking and asked about the situation regarding the teacher and his wife.

'Ryo' could only gloss over and say that they were living a good life in the capital. He was getting older and didn't like to go back and forth, so he allowed himself to come to Konoha alone to see the place where he grew up.

Ichisama also fully agrees with Tetsuya's words. After all, he is getting older now and fully relates to his words.

The two chatted a lot while eating, mostly about Ichiraku ramen shop. Ichisama lamented that time sure flies and people grew old without realizing it.

Tetsuya also felt quite emotional.

After sending away his son and his father, Tetsuya could no longer sit still. So he opted for a walk alone on the streets of Konoha.

When he was in the capital, he was either fishing in the mountains and forests outside the capital or making money.

At that moment, he didn't have any passing thoughts about time.

But when he returned to Konoha, he realized belatedly that so much time had indeed passed.

The streets of Konoha have changed. The original low-rise houses have been demolished and rebuilt into taller and larger houses. The streets have become wider and cleaner.

Looking at Konoha, it seems that the village managed by Hiruzen Sarutobi in his prime was pretty good.

"Hey~! Tetsuya!"

"Um?"

Hearing a familiar call, Tetsuya turned around and saw a ninja with white hair and vicissitudes of life marred on his face.

"Huh? Tetsuya, why are you still so young?"

Sakuya walked forward quickly and looked at Tetsuya curiously.

Looking at the man in front of him, Tetsuya had mixed feelings in his heart. Haha, the high-spirited Hatake Sakuya has now become an uncle with a face full of vicissitudes of life.

Although he wanted to laugh and say, Hey Sakuya, why are you so old? He knew he shouldn't expose himself, so he just smiled politely.

"Hello, uncle, my name is Chiba Ryo. Do you know my father?"
