Bang.
When Third was 30 years old, the pipe his wife Biwako gave him was broken after all...
"Resign... resign?" Third had not yet reacted, and he ignored the pipe and asked cautiously:
"Little Ruohuo, grandpa didn't hear clearly, you just said..."
Ruohuo Take a deep breath.
"I--want--to resign--!"
Ruohuo shouted loudly, and his voice could be heard clearly from three streets away!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The Anbus who were already nervous rushed in after hearing the roar, but they were immediately shocked by the unparalleled momentum of Orochimaru!
"Get out!"
This may be the first time Orochimaru has lost his temper in front of a teacher since he planned to run for the fourth generation!
But obviously this temper is not directed at Ruohuo...
Of course, it is impossible to target Third.
See the essence through the phenomenon, Orochimaru just doesn't want to be disturbed when thinking quickly!
'Resign? Take Four-Tails and Five-Tails to find Will of Fire again?'
'What about Grandmother's promise? This kid is not going to challenge Fugaku?'
'No... this child was not even afraid of Third Tsuchikage and so many Iwagakure Ninjas in order not to disappoint Grandmother!'
Orochimaru's brain enters overclocking mode, and he must figure out what he has missed!
'Ruohuo will definitely fulfill his promise to Grandmother, he will definitely challenge Fugaku, right... that's right, even if there is no Jonin Will of Fire, this child will... huh?'
'Will of Fire?'
'...Grandmother?'
Orochimaru suddenly lighted up.
The information in the brain was automatically arranged and combined to form a Gate of Answers, Orochimaru tried hard to push open the door, and found that standing behind the door was Ruohuo's Grandmother!
"..." Third glanced at his student, his eyes somewhat resentful.
So... this is what you told me, try your best to comply with this child's request?
"Um... ahem!" Third cleared his throat and called for support to his students.
At the same time, he seemed to be avoiding it and wanted to reach down and pick up the pipe, but found that the pipe was broken...
"..." Third hesitated for a moment, picked it up, put it on the table first, then took out a new pipe and tobacco box from the drawer, and slowly placed the tobacco leaves.
After many years of political career, Third knows that at times like this, he must remain calm and calm in the face of danger.
After stuffing the tobacco into the pipe, Third was about to light it, but he felt Ruohuo's burning eyes and couldn't help but look over.
"!!"
The moment I saw Three Tomoe in Ruohuo's eyes!
Third's first reaction was that an extremely familiar face appeared...
So similar...
This look... is exactly the same as that of Danzo that night!
"... Grandpa doesn't smoke anymore, I'm sorry." Third decisively gave up on lighting the fire and put the new pipe on the table.
"Then let's talk about returning the rent."
Ruohuo said coldly, "In the past month, I have thoroughly understood Konoha's rules for evaluating wartime military exploits, and calculated my military exploits by substituting my performance according to the rules."
Ruohuo took out a small note from his pocket and slapped it heavily on the desk.
There are many "war achievements" and due rewards clearly listed above.
"With the help of my partners and sister Kushina, I defeated the Iwagakure troops twice, causing at least 5,000 casualties."
"Defeating 100 Iwagakure Ninja can be regarded as an S-level mission. I request a reward of 50 S-level missions, which is not much."
"I also defeated Third Tsuchikage and caused immeasurable damage to Iwagakure."
"The number of prisoners I brought back alone is 859. Even if we calculate it according to Genin and calculate it as 100,000 taels per person, there should be a reward of at least 90 million taels."
Ruohuo took out another small note and after spreading it out, it was a copy of "War Merit Transfer Agreement".
"Sister Kushina has agreed to transfer her share of the war merit bounty to me as my birthday gift. It also has her fingerprints on it. You can verify it."
With that said, Ruohuo took out a third small piece of paper.
"This is the confession of the craftsmen who were responsible for repairing the building after I destroyed Hokage Office Building that day. Hokage Office Building obviously only paid them 200,000 taels in repair costs, but you deducted a full 1 million taels from me."
"And I also learned that even if we renovate the Hokage Office Building, or even build a new Hokage Office Building, even including the most exquisite decoration costs, it will only cost 30 million taels at most."
"This is their confession, and it is also signed."
Three pieces of paper were slapped in front of Third. Both of them were signed and stamped. Third's expression immediately darkened...
At this time, Ruohuo took out the fourth small note...
"This is the result of the land rent survey I have solicited from all families within Konoha, including Nara Clan, Akimichi Clan and Hatake Clan, who own no less than Home of the Tailed Beasts territory."
"Among them, the rent of most families' territories is only 10 million taels a year, and some are even less than 5 million taels. They can also apply for subsidies from Konoha."
"And Master Hatake Clan, Uncle White Fang don't even need to pay rent, and they claim that they can rent it to me for free..."
Ruohuo crossed his arms and said, "Third, I am notifying you now as a creditor."
"In view of your private deduction of my military exploits, your extortion for house repairs, and your unfair judgment on the conflict between me and the Hyuga rat."
"I, Uchiha Ruohuo, unilaterally propose to you to terminate the territory lease agreement of Home of the Tailed Beasts, and submit my resignation to you."
"From today on, I voluntarily give up my identity as Konoha Ninja and ask you to immediately return my combat reward, which totals 490.8 million taels after deducting normal expenses!"
Hiss--
Huh--
Third still couldn't help but smoke...
The four pieces of paper were placed in front of him, which together amounted to a bounty of nearly 500 million taels.
Third looked at Orochimaru seriously.
So, kid, please tell me seriously.
How should I agree to this bounty of nearly 500 million taels?
What promise can I make?
Orochimaru did not look at the teacher.
Compared with Third's melancholy and helplessness, Orochimaru's face has returned to elegance and calmness, with a bit of enlightenment...
"Reasonable price, Mr. Ruohuo."
Orochimaru smiled and said, "But I think the main purpose of your coming here today is not to ask for payment, right?"
"You are a kind child..."
"You won't embarrass Grandpa Hokage and ask him to spend such a large sum of money during this special period, right?"
Orochimaru is very calm.
Third was surprised.
He turned to look at Ruohuo, only to see Ruohuo nodding his head upright.
"Indeed, I have other purposes besides resigning today."
Ruohuo looked at Third with a serious look on his face and said, "I want to inherit Lord Danzo's will and take the purest Will of Fire into the darkness, just to clear out the rats hiding in the darkness."
Ruohuo took out the fifth small note.
"This is a statement by Uncle White Fang voluntarily giving up the heir to Root, and it is signed by him."
"Third, I will use my military exploits, totaling 490,800,000 taels, to buy the entire Root Organization from you."
"You can think of this as a commissioned mission."
"I, Uchiha Ruohuo, want to become the leader of Root Organization!"
