Uchiha Kō rolled his eyes. Itachi really knew how to take advantage of people's misfortunes. He and Uchiha Rou weren't even married yet, and he was already calling her father-in-law.
Well, he didn't want to argue with him, so he nodded. "That's right, that's only one point. Another point is that their small group represents the will of the original inhabitants of Kirigakure."
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Itachi frowned. "Natives?"
"Their existence is inevitable. Even without the Watermelon Gang, there's the Winter Melon Gang and the Pumpkin Gang. These are just names; the most important thing is that they represent local power."
"Although the local forces are subservient to the terminal forces, they will still try every means to seize power and money for their own people and families."
"This is something that can't be prevented. Wherever there are people, there is a world of intrigue. In the end, that Suikazan Fuguki may seem powerful, but he's just a puppet put forward by those old guys from Kirigakure."
Uchiha Kō saw things very clearly; he was only telling Uchiha Itachi these things because he wanted someone to talk to.
Uchiha Itachi listened intently, his gaze fixed intently on Uchiha Kō, wanting to know how Uchiha Kō planned to deal with this predicament.
Seeing Uchiha Itachi Uchiha Kō smiled and patted Uchiha Itachi's head, "I know you want to resolve these matters and share my burdens, but right now the most important thing is..."
He pointed to the sky. Uchiha Itachi was puzzled at first, then nodded. He understood it to mean extraterrestrials, Ōtsutsuki Clan.
Uchiha Kō noticed his doubts but didn't point them out. With Uchiha Itachi's strength, he could handle the Ōtsutsuki Clan, but he was far from being able to deal with Heavenly Dao.
Uchiha Kō chuckled and patted his shoulder, "Let's go pick up your mother-in-law and Rou Rou. It's time for us to go home."
After saying that, he walked towards the Land of Rain Hotel. Uchiha Itachi agreed and followed behind him, heading towards the Land of Rain Hotel together.
After meeting Tsunade and Rou Rou, Uchiha Kō asked them to stand over, and Tsunade naturally took Uchiha Kō's left arm.
There was no reason why, it was simply because she was his wife! She could hold his arm if she wanted, but Uchiha Rou wasn't going to back down and grabbed Uchiha Kō's right hand, pouting!
Uchiha Itachi was a little embarrassed, unsure of where to touch. Uchiha Kō spoke up, "Itachi, hold my shoulder."
Uchiha Itachi breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, Uchiha Kō; otherwise, he really wouldn't know what to do.
After Uchiha Itachi touched Uchiha Kō's shoulder, Uchiha Kō circulated his Chakra and sensed the Flying Thunder God Mark he had carved inside the villa.
Once connected, his eyes flashed, and Flying Thunder God Technique to travel thousands of miles back to his and Tsunade's cozy little home.
With a flash of golden light, everyone returned to the villa. Uchiha Itachi looked at the familiar buildings around him and couldn't help but feel envious. This technique is really convenient!
Seeing his expression Uchiha Kō smiled and said, "Want to learn? I'll teach you!"
Uchiha Itachi blushed, surprised that his thoughts had been seen through so easily. No wonder he was the Hokage Uchiha Kō.
Uchiha Kō looked at the two beautiful women, one older and one younger, on his left and right and said, "We're home. Aren't you going to let go?"
Tsunade rolled her eyes at him, then glared at Uchiha Rou, released her arm, and prepared to clean up, thinking that it must be dusty after all this time.
Although Uchiha Rou usually cleans, she had been away from home for a week to attend the Land of Rain Conference, so she probably needed to clean.
To everyone's surprise, when Tsunade passed by, she found that the house had already been cleaned. She couldn't help but frown. In order to prevent Rou Rou from developing the habit of being waited on hand and foot, she and her husband had decided to dismiss the servants in the villa.
Logically, no one should be cleaning! Just then, the door clicked open, Uchiha Kō frowned, gesturing for his daughter to let go.
Uchiha Rou nodded, then walked to the door with a smile. She had made arrangements for people before she left!
The door opened, and a rebellious young man and a red-haired girl walked in.
Uchiha Kō's brow relaxed when he saw the two children.
"Sasuke, Karin, you're here! You've worked so hard these past few days!" Uchiha Rou stepped forward and gave Uzumaki Karin a big hug, then looked at Sasuke Uchiha a warm smile.
Uchiha Itachi's lips curled up as he watched Sasuke Uchiha carrying cleaning tools, secretly pleased. Better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early.
This will also earn him some goodwill from Uchiha Kō!
Upon seeing the two, Uchiha Kō said, "Rou Rou, go make some tea. They've helped us a lot; we can't let them just stand there doing nothing."
With that, Uchiha Kō walked towards the sofa and then waved to the two little ones.
Uchiha Rou pouted, "Oh~" and then went to get the tea leaves and the water heater.
Tsunade chuckled softly, then went to prepare with Uchiha Rou.
Sasuke Uchiha and Uzumaki Karin were a little nervous and dared not go forward. Although they had seen Uchiha Kō in textbooks and various sculptures, he was, after all, dead.
Now, when this powerful figure, the number one leader of Konoha, who wields immense authority and suppresses the Ninja World, appears before them, they finally feel the pressure.
Seeing that the two little ones weren't moving, Uchiha Itachi gently shook them twice before they came to their senses.
Sasuke Uchiha and glanced at his brother Uchiha Itachi, who was looking at him encouragingly.
He took a deep breath, then, with a determined look in his eyes, walked towards the sofa where Uchiha Kō sitting.
Uchiha Kō couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at the reserved Uchiha Sasuke. This little guy didn't seem as stubborn as he was in the original story.
Perhaps because Itachi still exists and has changed the plot, Sasuke Uchiha is still quite naive.
Uzumaki Karin, seeing that Sasuke had already gotten on, cheered herself up. She was going to pursue Sasuke someday! How could she back down?
Moreover, Uchiha Kō's reputation, both in Konoha and in the Ninja World, is based on benevolence and righteousness; that's how it's written in textbooks, of course.
Uzumaki Karin followed closely behind and sat to Sasuke Uchiha's left. Sasuke Uchiha frowned at first, but when he thought about how they were facing the number one Ninja World, Uchiha Kō, he understood.
Uzumaki Karin's behavior is quite normal; in fact, it could be said that anyone who dares to sit next to Uchiha Kō is quite admirable!
Uchiha Kō looked at Sasuke Uchiha and Uzumaki Karin, a smile playing on his lips, and said, "Thank you both for taking the time to clean while my whole family was away."
"What kind of reward do you two little ones want?" Uchiha Kō, his interest piqued as he looked at the two children.
It wouldn't hurt to teach them a trick. They're helping with tidying up their house out of friendship, but there's no such thing as a free lunch.
It would be even better if we could take this opportunity to repay the favor to Uchiha Rou!
Seeing Uchiha Kō's beaming face, Sasuke Uchiha looked at Uchiha Itachi, seemingly seeking his opinion. Uchiha Itachi's eyes darted left and right, indicating that he should not agree.
Upon receiving the signal, Sasuke Uchiha shook his head. "Lord Hokage, this is what we should do. As your subject and as Rou Rou's follower, we only cleaned a few rooms. We don't need any reward."
Uzumaki Karin nodded in agreement. She didn't have any particular ambitions to begin with, and as for Medical Ninjutsu, Tsunade would occasionally talk about it when she returned to her parents' home.
Furthermore, within the Uzumaki Clan, there exists a medical book compiled by Tsunade, who possessed an understanding of all Medical Ninjutsu. This book, in its original form, was kept there for the Uzumaki Clan to use.
As a ninja of the Uzumaki Clan, Uzumaki Karin was naturally qualified to read and study this material.
Uchiha Kō frowned. These two kids are interesting! They can actually resist such a great temptation. You know, any Ninjutsu Uchiha Kō is a huge opportunity!
At this moment, Uchiha Rou came out of the kitchen. She had already tied her hair up, and her snow-white neck was faintly visible, which made Uchiha Itachi a little stunned.
"The tea is ready~" Uchiha Rou said with a smile, then placed the teapot containing the tea on the table in front of the sofa.
Uchiha Kō shook his head helplessly and smiled, "Then let's all have some tea first. Perfect timing, let's try my daughter's cooking." As he said this, a hint of pride appeared on Uchiha Kō's face.
He had drunk tea brewed by Uchiha Rou before. Although it was not quite as good as the tea brewed by Tsunade, it was still considered excellent.
It's truly remarkable to possess such tea-making skills at this age!
Uchiha Kō personally picked up the teapot and poured tea for the two little ones, which startled Sasuke Uchiha and Uzumaki Karin. They quickly stood up and prepared to bow to receive the tea.
Uchiha Kō smiled and said, "Sit down!" Hearing Uchiha Kō's words, the two hesitated for a moment, but eventually sat down.
Uchiha Kō smiled with satisfaction, then poured tea for the two children before pouring one for himself.
Uchiha Rou didn't stand on ceremony. She picked up the other cups and poured one for Uchiha Itachi first, then poured one for herself.
My mouth is a bit dry after all this time!
Uchiha Kō clicked his tongue, looking at Uchiha Rou with a hint of jealousy. Uchiha Rou, completely unaware, laughed and called out, "Itachi-nii, here you go, try Rou Rou's cooking!"
Uchiha Kō rolled his eyes, ignoring the scalding hot tea, and downed it in one gulp. For his physique, this temperature was nothing!
This startled Sasuke Uchiha and Uzumaki Karin. They thought they had done something wrong to displease Uchiha Kō, which was why he drank the tea in one gulp.
Tsunade came out of the kitchen and saw the two little ones sitting restlessly. She frowned, then looked around and understood what was going on.
She coughed, pulling the jealous Uchiha Kō back to reality.
Uchiha Kō looked up in surprise, and upon seeing Tsunade's unfriendly gaze, he immediately sat up straight and said with a smile, "Wife, you're here~"
