Uchiha Rou blushed, then looked at Uchiha Itachi, her cheeks puffing out. "This is outrageous! How can he be so alluring even in his sleep!"
Hmph! Uchiha Rou turned her head away, but couldn't help looking at Uchiha Itachi's handsome face again. She looked for ten minutes, and her mind flashed back to the years she had spent with Uchiha Rou Uchiha Itachi.
Without realizing it, a smile crept onto her lips. "Goodnight!" she said, and lay back down, ready to go back to sleep. But just then, the voice of the Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hagoromo, rang out.
"Little girl, you've slept for so long, haven't you had enough sleep?" His voice was tinged with helplessness. Life is so short, how can you waste time like this?
Uchiha Rou was displeased. She thought to herself, "Sage of Six Paths, you have no idea what the joy of sleeping is!" she retorted.
Otsutsuki Hagoromo pouted. "It's not like I haven't slept before!"
"Anyway, you just don't understand. And from now on, you're not allowed to come out unless I call you! You scared me!" Uchiha Rou snorted coldly, then prepared to go to sleep.
The Sage of Six Paths grimaced inside her, but there was nothing he could do. After all, he was indebted to her because he had taken her money and eaten her food. He had just consumed a large amount of her father's chakra and regained his soul, so it would be unethical to betray him now.
If Uchiha Kō knew this, he'd probably say, "How shrewd!"
Uchiha Kō slowly stood up. He frowned and held his head with his left hand. He had used too much chakra and ocular power this time. Although he had rested, there were still huge side effects.
He couldn't help but sigh, "Indeed, there are gains and losses. To possess such great power, one must also bear the side effects of using it. But it doesn't matter, at least I saved the person!"
Uchiha Kō muttered to himself, if he knew that he was so weak not because of his resurrection, but because he was nourishing the Sage of Sage of Six Paths' soul, he would probably explode!
At that moment, Tsunade walked in dressed casually. She paused for a moment when she saw Uchiha Kō, then smiled and helped him up. She then took some honey water from the bedside table. "Have some, honey water. You've been sleeping all day and haven't eaten anything. Drink some honey water to calm yourself down."
Uchiha Kō nodded, took the honey water from Tsunade's hand, gulped it down, and then handed the cup back. Tsunade smiled and put the blanket on the bedside table.
"Rou Rou woken up yet?" After drinking some water, Uchiha Kō felt his parched throat was a little better. He then looked at his beloved wife, Tsunade, Tsunade shook her head. "Not yet, Itachi is watching over her!"
Uchiha Kō remained silent for a moment, then nodded. "Has anything major happened in the Ninja World today?" Ever since Uchiha Kō conquered the four great ninja villages, his control over the Ninja World has become increasingly strict!
"Nothing serious, but three of the four ministers have returned. Although my Second Grandfather didn't go back to Konoha, he sent my teacher back to offer his condolences," Tsunade said calmly.
"Teacher? Sarutobi Hiruzen?" Uchiha Kō finally reacted, looking at Tsunade with some confusion. "Wait, why did your Second Grandfather send him to offer condolences? Shouldn't it have been Shimura Danzō?"
Tsunade shook her head. "I heard from the teacher that Shimura Danzō went on an important mission, and I noticed that the teacher's face was gloomy when he talked about the important mission. He also said that you were awake and told me to tell him that he wanted to see you!"
Uchiha Kō frowned. Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to see him? What was going on? What did this retired Third want? And why did he look so grim?
Uchiha Kō stood up, dressed, and then said, "Wife, please inform the Third to come to the Hokage Villa now. I won't feel at ease until this matter is cleared up!"
Upon hearing this, a hint of worry flashed in Tsunade's eyes. After all, Uchiha Kō had just expended a great deal of energy and chakra to replenish her daughter's strength. Now that she had rested for a day, she wondered how well she had recovered, and yet she had to rush to do these things!
However, as a supportive wife, she still had to support her husband. So she took out her phone and called Biwako Sarutobi. After chatting for three minutes, Tsunade hung up and gave Uchiha Kō an OK sign.
Uchiha Kō nodded. He got up to boil water and make tea. After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen was the Third Hokage, his former superior. Even if he hadn't done a great job, he still had to treat him well, right?
At the very least, we need to make it look respectable so that Sarutobi Hiruzen n't go back and spread rumors, which would tarnish our reputation and cause us trouble!
Just after the water boiled, there was a knock on the villa door. Uchiha Kō making tea when Tsunade went to open the door. When she opened the door, Tsunade saw Sarutobi Hiruzen with a deep expression, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.
She smiled and said, "Teacher, please come in. My husband is making you some tea!" Tsunade swayed her alluring figure as she walked into the house.
Sarutobi Hiruzen had no interest in reading; instead, he kept his head down, preparing to tell Uchiha Kō about his teacher's decision so that Uchiha Kō could decide whether to intervene.
Because he still believed he was right. As the head of Konoha, one of the five great ninja villages, he believed that peace should be the priority and that other weaker ninja villages should be supported.
Upon reaching the sofa, Tsunade gestured for Sarutobi Hiruzen to sit down, then went upstairs herself. After all, what was about to happen was likely very important, and it wouldn't be appropriate for her to be there for the conversation between the two Hokage.
At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke up, "Tsunade, you don't need to go upstairs. You can listen here too!" His eyes held a deeper meaning as he looked into Tsunade's eyes.
Tsunade frowned. What was going on? Why did she have to get involved? But since her teacher had said so, she would listen to what was going on.
Sarutobi Hiruzen sat on the single sofa to the left of the sofa, Tsunade sat opposite him, and Uchiha Kō sat on the single sofa to his right. Both of them had their heads down and seemed to be thinking about something.
Uchiha Kō picked up the teapot, walked to the living room, placed it on the table, sat down in the middle of the sofa, crossed his legs, and looked at Tsunade.
Tsunade shook her head, indicating that she didn't know what was going on either.
Sarutobi Hiruzen kept Tsunade behind because he was afraid that if things didn't go well, he would be scolded by Uchiha Kō because of his old age. So he kept Tsunade there so that Uchiha Kō would be less likely to scold him.
"Third, may I ask what brings you here tonight?" Uchiha Kō looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen, his eyes filled with kindness and amiability.
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at Uchiha Kō, then stood up. "Fourth Hokage, I have something to tell you, please be prepared!" Sarutobi Hiruzen solemnly.
This made Uchiha Kō frown. What could possibly make this power-obsessed old man get up and tell him? Uchiha Kō frowned. "Go ahead, I'm listening."
Tsunade took a sip of tea, making a slurping sound. Sarutobi Hiruzen's lips twitched, and he glanced at his former disciple. "If your teacher weren't standing here talking, how could you so naturally take a sip of tea!"
Uchiha Kō showed no reaction, his eyes fixed on Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Sarutobi Hiruzen a deep breath. "Fourth Hokage, my teacher Tobirama has already sent troops to attack Yugakure!"
Uchiha Kō was taken aback, crossed his arms, and tapped rhythmically on his right index finger on his shoulder, as if he was pondering the matter. Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen Uchiha Kō felt that there was a chance and immediately perked up.
"Fourth Hokage, I believe that since Konoha has become the largest village in the Ninja World, we should do our best to support those smaller countries outside, so that they will be grateful for Konoha's kindness and fight for Konoha when the time comes. What do you think?"
Uchiha Kō paused, looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a strange expression, thinking to himself, "Good heavens, so it wasn't your son who was assassinated, but my daughter is in trouble, and you want me to send money to our enemies? You want me to forgive them?"
"I hesitated because I didn't personally seek justice for my daughter. Aren't you overthinking this?" Uchiha Kō frowned deeply.
Sarutobi Hiruzen hadn't yet grasped the problem; he only felt that Uchiha Kō thought his teacher had overstepped his authority, which was a good thing! It would help him plead for Yugakure.
"Owl, I know that everything you've done over the years has been for Konoha, but this incident is the fault of that one man named Hidan. I don't think the entire Yugakure should be implicated. Don't you think so?" Sarutobi Hiruzen continued to entice him.
Before Uchiha Kō could speak, Tsunade slammed her teacup to the ground with a loud thud! The next moment, members of the Anbu, led by Hatake Sakumo, appeared, each holding various weapons and staring at the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, with unfriendly expressions.
"Teacher, you've taught me so much since I was little, and I really admire you. But wouldn't you like to hear what you're saying?"
"Your granddaughter was stabbed in the street and nearly died. It's one thing if you don't speak up for her, but my Second Grandfather is avenging his great-great-granddaughter, and you're trying to stop him! Don't you care about my daughter's safety?" Tsunade stood up, her chakra surging.
The raging chakra made her clothes flutter loudly, and even the chandelier in the room began to sway!
Uchiha Kō didn't speak, but his eyes were filled with killing intent. He stared straight at Sarutobi Hiruzen, ready to hear how he would try to justify himself!
Hatake Sakumo had already pulled out half of the White Fang, his eyes filled with mockery and hatred. He hadn't forgotten that Sarutobi Hiruzen had once tried to make him offend Sunagakure!
Even if Hatake Sakumo is quite strong, what kind of leader would make the decision to offend Sunagakure and Chiyo on his own?
He's come at the perfect time! As long as Uchiha Kō gets angry, he can just use the Hatake Sword Style to behead the old man!
The Anbu Ninja present, including those from the Hyuga Clan, had their Byakugan fully activated, veins bulging on their temples, as they stared intently at Sarutobi Hiruzen. Most of them were branch family ninjas, and they knew perfectly well who had done them a favor!
This is the moment to fully support Uchiha Kō and fight against the former Hokage!
