Konoha's Free Life

On a ruined house, Uchiha dust stepped on the dust and floated in the sky, looking at the Third Hokage below him with a smile.

"What do you want to do now?"

The Third Hokage looked up at Uchiha Chen and said in a deep voice.

"There's no rush. I said this is a matter between the two of us. Let the rest of the people around us leave first."

Uchiha Chen jumped down, held Gui Chen in the air and said slowly in front of the Third Hokage.

"Letter, month."

"exist."

As soon as the Third Hokage finished speaking, two Anbu jumped out from the surroundings and knelt on one knee in front of the Third Hokage.

"You take Orochimaru and Jiraiya and retreat first."

"Can..."

The two ANBU carefully picked up the two unknown people on the ground and looked at the Third Hokage in embarrassment.

"obey orders."

The Third Hokage took out his pipe and threw it into Orochimaru's arms to scare away the two Anbu.

During this period, Uchiha Chen did not take any action and just watched quietly as all the Anbu around him exited.

"Why not Jiraiya? In terms of becoming Hokage, Jiraiya is more in line with your selection criteria."

Uchiha Chen put Guichen back into the scabbard, picked a big rock, sat on it, and turned around to ask.

"This has nothing to do with what's going on between us."

The Third Hokage also sat down slowly, holding on to the broken wall behind him like an ordinary old man.

"Too."

Uchiha nodded incredulously.

"You gave Danzo the corpse ban, right?"

Uchiha Chen was the first to speak.

"Yes."

"If I could suppress Danzo, wouldn't this end now?"

The Third Hokage spoke slowly as if asking himself.

"Who knows."

Uchiha looked at the blue sky and answered the third Hokage's words.

"Duanzo is also doing it for the good of the village, but his methods are a little extreme."

"You have to admit that sometimes you have to sacrifice something for the greater good."

The Third Hokage looked at the handsome young man in front of him and said calmly.

"You can say sacrifice so easily just because you can decide who will sacrifice."

"Sacrificing others sounds nice to you. If I say now that you killed Sarutobi Asuma with your own hands, I will stop. Can you say sacrifice so easily?"

Uchiha glanced at the Third Hokage who was struggling.

"Of course I would."

After a while, the Third Hokage gritted his teeth and said his answer.

"It doesn't matter anymore, is it anger, sadness, regret? If you have these emotions, you are not worthy of talking about sacrifice."

Uchiha Chen's words broke through the defense of the Third Hokage.

"Because I am an inherently evil Uchiha, no matter what Danzo does to me, it is appropriate."

"There cannot be unrest in the village, so Hatake Sakumo deserves to die in your heart."

"Are these things you acquiesce in the sacrifices you speak of?"

Uchiha looked at the Third Hokage whose expression was slowly returning to calm and said slowly with a smile.

"I have one last question."

The Third Hokage asked Uchiha Chen instead without answering.

"Tell me the last one."

Uchiha nodded and sat up cross-legged, holding his chin and looking at the Third Hokage.

"It is impossible to miss the ban on corpses. Who are you standing in front of me now?"

The Third Hokage leaned against the wall and stared at Uchiha Chen sharply.

"Om~"

At this moment, a white field enveloped the entire Konoha.

"Pa~" A sound of snapping fingers brought the Third Hokage's thoughts back.

The Third Hokage looked at the gray space around him, and then at Uchiha Chen who was sitting cross-legged and looking at him.

"You can choose to let me explain this, or you can choose to let me continue to answer the question you just asked."

In the new realm opened by Uchiha Chen, he knocked on the stone next to him and restored the stone to its original dark color and said with a smile.

"No, I was hoping you could answer the question I asked earlier."

"Ah."

After hearing the Third Hokage's answer, Uchiha Chen chuckled and slowly stood up.

"You could argue that the ghoul ban took away most of my goodwill."

"What stands before you now is an Uchiha dust who has recalled his original goal."

As he spoke, Uchiha slowly walked up to the Third Hokage.

"Kind?"

"Yes, kindness, is that clear?"

"do not really understand."

"That has nothing to do with me. It's time for you to repay your debt."

Uchiha Chen squatted on the ground and showed a bright smile.

"what do you want."

The Third Hokage looked at Uchiha Chen in front of him complicatedly and asked.

"The Book of Sealing and the Art of Sealing and a Mask."

The Third Hokage frowned when he heard Uchiha Chen's words, and the gray-white field around him was gradually fading away.

"Don't worry, you will give it to me."

Before the Third Hokage could speak to retort, Uchiha Chen grabbed the Third Hokage's hair and raised his head.

"Eye Technique—Real Life."

. . . . . .

When the Third Hokage came to his senses again, he was already sitting on the chair in his office.

It took him a long time to come back to his senses. The scene in his memory only lasted until Uchiha Chen sent the old man Miike out of Konoha. After that, the memory was missing, as if it had been erased.

"Three generations of adults."

Just as the Third Hokage was trying to recall the lack of memory, an ANBU appeared in front of him.

"What's wrong."

The Third Hokage pinched his eyebrows and asked.

"All ANBU teams surrounding the orphanage were killed."

"Have you checked?"

The Third Hokage looked at the ANBU in shock. Even if his memory was lost, he was sure that this was not done by Uchiha dust.

"After investigation, everyone was killed in an instant. Some died from water release ninjutsu and some died from a very powerful illusion."

The ANBU lowered his head and reported.

"I see."

The Third Hokage frowned and asked the ANBU to step back. He stood up and went to the location of the seal scroll to start forming seals.

After an extremely complicated seal, the restriction was opened.

"Whoo~"

Looking at the intact seal scroll, the Third Hokage breathed a sigh of relief, at least it's not the worst situation yet.

As for what happened in the orphanage, it could only be the backhand left by Uchiha Chen.

Turning back and looking through the window at the mess outside the Leaf Village, the Third Hokage gritted his teeth, took off his Hokage robe, revealing the armor he had been wearing under him, and pushed out the door.

Next, he must end the war as quickly as possible, otherwise Konoha will definitely perish.

At this moment, Uchiha Chen, who had gone to meet the old man Miike outside the village, also turned his head and glanced at Konoha Village, then turned around and walked away with the old man Miike without any nostalgia.
