Hearing Deidara's panicked words, Ōnoki did not answer him. Instead, he turned his face to one side, looking very angry.
Kurotsuchi naturally knew the relationship between grandpa and Deidara at this time, so after seeing grandpa's reaction, he explained to Deidara in a sad voice:
"Senior Deidara, not long ago, the legendary Asura of the Ninja World and Madara Uchiha invaded our Iwagakure. Not only did they destroy the entire village, they also kidnapped Jinchūriki in our village.
In this battle, grandpa was seriously injured in order to stop Madara Uchiha. If Konoha's Lord Hokage hadn't rescued him in time, grandpa, grandpa might have died."
After Deidara heard Kurotsuchi's words, he immediately reacted, with panic in his eyes, and hurriedly looked around.
At this time, Deidara, after careful identification, recognized that the place that looked like ruins around him was actually the place where he grew up.
"Here, this is our Iwagakure?"
Deidara's voice was trembling, as if he was in disbelief at all this.
Although the village was basically destroyed, leaving a ruin.
However, the surrounding environment was still familiar to him, so Deidara quickly confirmed that this was the place where he grew up.
At this moment, Kurotsuchi pursed his lips slightly and said in a low voice:
"Senior Deidara, can you stay? Grandpa's body has found it difficult to recover after this battle.
And my father also died while saving the village.
Now, Iwagakure really needs you."
After Deidara heard what Kurotsuchi said, he looked around blankly, and finally looked at Kurotsuchi and Ōnoki.
In the end, under Kurotsuchi's expectant eyes, Deidara nodded with great difficulty.
Ōnoki next to him also breathed a sigh of relief quietly after seeing Deidara agree, and his expression softened a little, and then he said in a serious tone:
"Deidara, although you are still my disciple, you have betrayed the village after all.
With this stain, even if you come back, it is probably impossible to inherit the position of Tsuchikage."
Speaking of this, Ōnoki's expression became a little gloomy.
After all, no matter what, Deidara is his most promising disciple.
But after hearing Ōnoki's words, Deidara raised his eyebrows in surprise, his face regained its arrogance, and he said in a somewhat impatient tone:
"Old man, did you misunderstand something?
Do you think I came back for the position of Tsuchikage?
When I defected from the village to pursue the art of explosion, I no longer cared about my position as Tsuchikage.
The reason why I stay in the village is entirely because this is the village where I grew up, do you understand?"
Having said this, Deidara looked at Kurotsuchi next to him, and then said:
"As for the position of Tsuchikage, I think Kurotsuchi is more suitable.
You know, the current Konoha, Kirigakure, and Sunagakure are all female."
After hearing Deidara's words, Ōnoki also looked at Kurotsuchi next to him. Although he didn't know what he was thinking, his eyes became brighter and brighter.
But at this moment, Shin Uchiha, who had been listening next to him, suddenly coughed, and seeing everyone looking at him, he said:
"Actually, if you want to rebuild the village, we Konoha can provide assistance."
Having said this, Shin Uchiha winked at Shizune next to him, and then said:
"Little Shizune, please tell them about our Konoha's Construction Brigade Captain Yamato, as well as the charging standards."
After hearing Shin Uchiha's prompt, Shizune next to him also brightened up his eyes, and then came to them and began to introduce them.
Seeing this, Shin Uchiha just shook his head in amusement, then came to Tsunade and said:
"Sister Tsunade, if I guessed correctly, Madara Uchiha should have gone to Kumogakure to capture Eight-Tails Jinchuriki at this time.
The final battle should not be far away. I need to make some preparations.
If you're done here, you can go back by yourself."
In Tsunade and Shizune, Shin Uchiha has long left Space Mark. As long as they actively activate it, they can return to the space.
Sister Tsunade naturally knew what Shin Uchiha wanted to do. She looked at him deeply with her beautiful pale yellow eyes and nodded in agreement.
Shin Uchiha Seeing this, he did not hesitate anymore, greeted everyone, and disappeared from the place.
However, what no one noticed was that just after Shin Uchiha disappeared, Kurotsuchi suddenly looked towards the place where he disappeared, with some inexplicable emotions in his eyes.
Uchiha Clan, the former Uchiha District
In a very dark hall, there are several burning torches stuck on the surrounding walls. When burning, they make a beep-beep-beep sound, which is the only sound in the hall.
In the middle of the hall, a thin-looking figure stood there quietly, his eyes looking sadly at the stone chair on the high platform, wondering what he was thinking.
On the wall behind the stone chair, there is a very conspicuous Gunbai logo painted on it.
But at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared on the high platform, looking at the thin figure with calm eyes.
As for the arrival of this person, the thin man was not surprised. After seeing him, he knelt down on one knee and bowed to him and said:
"Uchiha Itachi has met Lord Clan Leader!"
