Gyūki was taken aback, not expecting Uchiha Kō to be so easy to talk to. Although he had agreed to Killer B to stay in Konoha for a year for observation, his tone was indeed condescending, which made Ushioni a little unhappy.
"Hey, Gyūki, do you really think the power of the Tailed Beast can make Uchiha Kō feel fear and respect? Then you're wrong," Kurama said calmly.
"That guy was able to take on Senju Hashirama one-on-one eight years ago and defeat him. Who is Senju Hashirama? He's the one who can take on a Tailed Beast with one hand. Don't even mention you, even I, the Nine-Tails, was subdued in one move."
"And yet, someone like that was subdued by Uchiha Kō. Do you still think the power of the Tailed Beast is worth his attention?" Kurama explained at length.
Upon hearing this, Gyūki fell silent, and his displeasure lessened considerably. It seemed that Uchiha Kō's attitude was quite normal.
Uchiha Kō offered Killer B a seat, and two Anbu immediately added a seat to the table where the Jinchūriki sitting.
Uchiha Kō pointed and said, "Those are all the Jinchūriki from my village. You can go ask them."
Killer B went over and then began questioning Shimura Danzō. Shimura Danzō at Uchiha Kō and gave him a meaningful look. He smiled and said, "The Jinchūriki of our village are not only friends of the Tailed Beast, but also protectors in the eyes of the villagers."
"Thanks to the Lord Hokage, our village has revealed the secret of Jinchūriki, and the people of the village are filled with respect and love for Jinchūriki." After Shimura Danzō speaking, Killer B fell silent.
He suddenly recalled his past life; the villagers' cold stares and sarcastic remarks still echoed in his ears, and he still remembered those insulting words.
"Get out of my way, monster!"
"You bastard, every time you lose control, you destroy the village. So many people have lost their homes and families because of you! Die!"
"You are an unfortunate being; please get out of Kumogakure immediately."
"Monster, let's not play with him!"
Despite his outward indifference, Killer B uses singing, dancing, and rapping to showcase himself, acting like a fool and completely oblivious to everyone's disdain.
But doesn't a person really have any complaints? Why should I live this kind of life? Why? Why should all the losses and damages from the Eight-Tails' rampage be blamed on him?
What did he do wrong? He's just a child! Why should he bear the malice of the entire village?
Those who were actually killed by the Eight-Tails' rampage are one thing, I can accept that, but why do those who are safe and unharmed also have to get involved and kick him hard?
Killer B didn't understand, but he could only silently endure it. At that time, he was beaten by a group of people until he was curled up all over. They looked at him with strange eyes, making him feel ashamed.
Listening to Shimura Danzō's words, he felt like he was dreaming. Even though he had made peace with the Eight-Tails and stopped causing chaos, the villagers still looked at him with fear and unease, as if they were worried that he would be torn to pieces at any moment.
That look and attitude can't be faked; that fear is buried deep in one's heart.
In addition, his reputation was further tarnished by his previous involvement in helping the Ai family eliminate traitors, which resulted in the bloodshed of nearly a thousand people.
The Third Raikage publicly belittled him, angrily rebuking him for acting on his own initiative! He even slapped him, the force of which can still be felt now.
He couldn't help but touch his face, his eyes flickering. In the original story, Shimura Danzō a master of intrigue; seeing Killer B this, how could he not guess what had happened to him?
He patted him on the shoulder. "It's okay, it's all in the past. If, and I mean if, you feel like you have nothing to do, you can come to school with me tomorrow to teach. You can be my assistant and help me with the lessons."
"Can I really do it? Danzo, I'm just a ruthless killer. You want me to teach? Can I really do it well?" Killer B looked at Shimura Danzō with hopeful eyes.
Shimura Danzō smiled gently. "Of course, our Konoha Academy emphasizes individualized instruction. Many children have awakened Lightning Release Chakra, but those who have achieved mastery in this area are truly few in Konoha."
"Hatake Sakumo is the captain of the Anbu, busy with work every day without rest. Kakashi's son has also become a ninja and goes out on missions with Minato's Team."
"We really need a lightning-style ninja," Shimura Danzō said sincerely. He was telling the truth; if Killer B were willing to teach the children who Lightning Release, it would definitely help them improve their skills even further!
Killer B was being treated with such importance for the first time, and his eyes lit up. "Then, then I'll give it a try, Danzo. If I don't teach well, you can remove me anytime!"
"Take your time. No one can be a good teacher from the start. I'll guide you from the side, so don't worry!" Shimura Danzō said.
"Hmm!" Killer B's eyes lit up. He loved making friends, but in Kumogakure, all the friends he made had ulterior motives, whether it was for power or for his strength.
But it's different here, especially for the children. They haven't experienced the influence of society yet and are still in a state of innocence. At this time, they don't think about many things; they just study and play.
Compared to the backstabbing and infighting in the village, Killer B preferred making friends with children, and with that in mind, Killer B couldn't stop Kakuzu.
Behind the Scenes
After eight years of growth, Senju Nawaki has now become a young man. It is said that girls change a lot as they grow up, and Nawaki has also become handsome. Unlike Senju Hashirama's broad face, he has a standard oval face.
He had a beauty mark at the corner of his eye, short, spiky hair, and when he wasn't speaking, he gave off a cool and handsome vibe. But the moment he opened his mouth, the illusion shattered. "Hey, Yugito, what do you want to eat? It's on me." Although his voice was going through puberty, it still sounded a bit childish.
Yugito glanced at him. "Hot pot?" Yugito remembered that Senju Nawaki loved hot pot, and he used to eat a lot of it!
"Eating hot pot all the time gets boring, let's have barbecue instead!" Senju Nawaki remembered what Yugito liked to eat.
Considering each other's feelings, the two decided to have barbecue and hot pot together. Afterward, they continued to check the accounts, since they had only completed half of their work.
Speaking of Senju Nawaki, just two years ago, Senju Nawaki awakened Wood Release, which pleased Senju Hashirama. Hashirama asked him how he awakened it, and Senju Nawaki replied that Uchiha Kō injected Yang Release Chakra into his body, which is why he awakened it.
Senju Hashirama was taken aback. So that's how it is? Is this the condition for Wood Release? Actually, it's not just that. There's also the matter of Senju Hashirama's bloodline. After all, Senju Hashirama was the reincarnation of Asura.
His bloodline is quite special; only by combining his bloodline with Yang Release Chakra and Water/Earth Chakra can Wood Release be activated!
As for Uchiha Kō's Wood Release, that was purely an external cheat, but Uchiha Kō wouldn't tell anyone.
Soon, the banquet was drawing to a close.
After being informed by his subordinates, Uchiha Kō carried Uchiha Rou onto the stage. What followed was the most crucial part of the full moon celebration: the castration ceremony!
"Gentlemen, the exciting program is nearing its end, but today's main event is about to begin: castration." After Uchiha Kō finished speaking, Anbu Ninja brought in a large wooden tray with various items on it: wooden Shuriken Kunai, novels, pens, seals, kitchen utensils, and silver.
"Let's see what my daughter will choose today," Uchiha Kō smiled, then placed his daughter on a wooden tray. Uchiha Rou, slightly silly expression was projected onto the large screen, and everyone's lips curled into smiles.
Some clever people have already started preparing their speeches in their minds, so that they can be the first to offer their congratulations after Uchiha Rou makes her selection and win Uchiha Kō's favor!
As long as Uchiha Kō is happy, then promotion and wealth are not just a dream!
The little princess, Uchiha Rou, lay on the wooden board. She looked around, not particularly interested in the various utensils scattered on the ground. After a while, her eyes suddenly lit up.
She crawled forward, and everyone thought the little princess would choose the koto. But Uchiha Rou touched the koto, then pushed it aside and continued crawling forward. She picked up the silver and gold ingots, smiled, and put them into the small pocket in front of her clothes.
Everyone fell silent. Uchiha Kō laughed loudly, "Looks like my little princess likes money! Not bad, not bad. Looks like I, as her father, will have to keep working hard to make money for Konoha and for myself!"
Everyone agreed, and then they began to think of poems about money to praise the little princess, Uchiha Rou. Uchiha Kō accepted it all, then picked up the little princess and handed her to the Anbu. The Anbu were extremely careful, gently and without moving, handing her to Tsunade.
Tsunade took the child and thanked the Anbu Ninja quickly waved his hand, saying it was what he should do!
The Anbu Ninja immediately left, Tsunade looked at Uchiha Kō on the stage, her eyes gleaming.
"Today's full moon celebration has come to a successful conclusion. I, Uchiha Kō, thank everyone for their support, thank all the villages for their support, and thank the Daimyo of the Land of Fire for his support. I hope that in the future, the Ninja World can be like today, where people from every village can gather together to raise a glass, chat, and watch the performances," said Uchiha Kō.
The crowd began to applaud, and the applause was thunderous.
"Then I declare today's event over. Please go back and rest. You all have to go to work as usual tomorrow!" Uchiha Kō smiled, then stepped off the stage and left with Tsunade.
Nara Rokumei stayed behind to organize the scene and clean up.
Nara Rokumei:...
Just as he was cleaning, his phone rang, and Nara Rokumei answered it.
"Operation begins, capture the Daimyo!" came Uchiha Kō's voice from inside.
"Understood!" Nara Rokumei replied, then glanced at his phone; it was 0:00.
"The Lord Hokage really is punctual!" Nara Rokumei shook his head, then sent a text message to his son.
Daimyo of the Land of Wind
