Meeting the Daimyo Outside the Village-This Time We Won't Run into the Akatsuki, Right?

After several days of rain, Konoha finally saw sunshine again.

To others, this was God's mercy on the wise and valiant Lord Third.

But for Uchiha Yu, the heavy rain was actually washing away the sins of Konoha.

Walking through the deserted Uchiha Clan Compound, Uchiha Yu and Sasuke had grim expressions on their faces.

It's hard to imagine that not long ago, this place had a bustling commercial street, children playing and laughing, and elderly women washing clothes by the river.

Now, nothing is left.

It's empty.

Sasuke rubbed his nose. "They said they want us to move out, that this whole place is going to be demolished and turned into a street."

"We're not moving." Uchiha Yu. "They think they can just take what our ancestors left us? As long as the two of us are here, the Uchiha Clan's territory can't be confiscated! Why should we move?"

Uchiha Yu clearly remembered Sasuke's ordeal. After the Kaguya Otsutsuki crisis, Sasuke, as the savior, had to buy a new house when he returned to Konoha.

The key issue is that Sasuke it yet.

Even though Yamato could build a house with a simple clap of his hands on an empty lot, he insisted on charging Sakura a 60-year mortgage.

This is ridiculous; the village and the Land of Fire are completely inhuman.

Uchiha Yu looked at the empty street ahead. "You are the first in line to inherit the throne, and I am your guardian. The village will not be allowed to take back the Uchiha Clan Compound! From now on, we'll sit on this Gold Mountain and rent out shops and houses at even lower prices, and we'll even give away air conditioning for free!"

Sasuke in bewilderment, "Where did you get so many air conditioners?"

"Hey! Which house here hasn't had two or three people die in it? They're all haunting us, it's so cool here!"

Sasuke swallowed hard, his body trembling slightly. "Can I... can I stay at your place tonight? It's a bit lonely back at the manor."

"What are you afraid of? Don't be afraid. Once you're asleep, Clan Head Fugaku and Madam Mikoto will be watching you from the headboard! How heartwarming!"

"Aaaaaah!" Sasuke screamed as he ran forward.

The two Uchiha, one big and one small, quickly arrived at the makeshift office in the village.

Mitokado Homura, Utatane Koharu, and Kakashi in a wheelchair were discussing something when Kakashi saw the two Uchiha approaching and immediately waved.

"Over here, over here."

Approaching Kakashi, Uchiha Yu naturally went behind Kakashi and pushed him into the shade. "Teacher Kakashi, how did the talks go?"

Kakashi sighed, "The Daimyo said the Uchiha clan is almost wiped out, and such a large clan territory is just sitting empty."

Uchiha Yu was immediately enraged and asked, "What crime is it to kill Daimyo?"

"Shh!" Kakashi quickly covered Uchiha Yu's mouth. "You'd better wait until later and not say that in front of the Daimyo's messenger! Otherwise, you'll be in big trouble!"

Uchiha Yu was completely unconvinced.

That's why Konoha is so sick. Even though Konoha holds the military power, they often have to listen to the Daimyo's opinions.

"If I become Hokage, I'll treat the Daimyo like a mascot, make sure he has three meals a day, and if he utters a single word of anything else, I'll slap him across the face!"

"Cough cough cough!" Kakashi coughed a few times in an attempt to cover up Uchiha Yu's treasonous words, but it was to no avail. The two Senior Konoha Advisor in the distance still heard them.

Utatane Koharu approached, first glancing at Sasuke, then facing Uchiha Yu: "Whether your charges are valid depends on the Daimyo's decision. This afternoon, Konoha will send a small team to both consult the Daimyo for recommendations on Daimyo next Hokage Candidate and search for Jiraiya's whereabouts."

Uchiha Yu asked in confusion, "Oh, and then?"

"You must follow this group out of the village, pay your respects to the Daimyo, and await his judgment."

Uchiha Yu scratched his itchy back, and Kakashi, seeing that he couldn't reach it, offered to help him.

"What if I am convicted?"

Without hesitation, Utatane Koharu, said, "It could be jail or Labor Reform."

"Hey!" Uchiha Yu laughed. "The Daimyo didn't see what happened that night. He was so far away, what he says doesn't count for anything."

"Well, so you'd better prepare your explanation, pack your bags, and meet at the village entrance in three hours."

"Wait a minute, can I take him with me out of the village?" Uchiha Yu asked, pointing at Sasuke.

After a moment of silence Utatane Koharu, said, "It's best not to."

At the Konoha Gate, two Gatekeepers stood upright, receiving the inspection of a Daimyo messenger with thinning hair.

At Tea Stall in the distance, Uchiha Yu personally poured a cup of tea for Kurenai Yuhi.

When they were about to pour some more for Yamato, Yamato quickly shook his head. "I won't drink it, it'll make me pee too much."

Uchiha Yu then poured some water for Sasuke, saying, "Go ahead and pee. It's in the forest, you can pee anywhere."

The Yamato were as still as water; "they'll be followed."

Uchiha Yu's lips twitched. "So, doing missions with you means I have to hold my pee and poop, huh?"

Yamato shook his head. "I'll use Wood Release to pack up your excrement."

"Pfft!" Mitarashi Anko, who was drinking tea, sprayed tea leaves Yamato's face. After realizing what had happened, she quickly waved her hands, "No, sorry!"

Yamato wiped his face clean expressionlessly. "The area around the village has been rather unsettled lately, especially considering that every time Uchiha Yu goes out of the village on a mission, he always encounters Akatsuki members. Although the route we're taking is within the Land of Fire, we're still missing one Combat Power. I wonder who the village will send. Let's wait a little longer."

After a short wait, a purple-haired ninja wearing an Anbu mask appeared in the distance.

Upon seeing this person, Yamato nodded. "Everyone's here."

"Is it all here?" Uchiha Yu looked at the newcomer, but couldn't come up with a solution after thinking for a long time.

He had seen one with purple hair near Fugaku.

Unfortunately, on the Massacre Night, Earth Grudge Fear plucked the eyeballs from her corpse and ate them like cherry tomatoes.

That's it.

The person stepped in front of the group, removed their mask, and said, "Hello, my name is Uzuki Yugao, nice to meet you, Captain Yamato!"

After Uzuki Yugao said her name, Uchiha Yu turned his face away guiltily.

When Orochimaru broke into Konoha, Gekko Hayate, the protagonist of Shippuden, was guarding the gate, and Orochimaru killed him in one fell swoop.

Uzuki Yugao is Gekko Hayate's girlfriend.

Yamato nodded. "Okay, we can set off now!"

"Wait a minute!" Uchiha Yu suddenly called out to Yamato, "There are so many women, are you going to pack up their excrement too?"

Kurenai Yuhi flushed red. "Yu, don't, don't say things like that."

Yamato disagreed, saying, "Of course, to avoid being tracked by the enemy, we have to pack up the excrement."

Uchiha Yu retorted helplessly, "You're really like a cat; you even bury your own poop."

The group arrived at the entrance, Daimyo's messenger had already completed his inspection. The man straightened his few remaining hairs, cleared his throat, and said, "Let's go!"

As the group exited the gate, Uchiha Sasuke glanced back at the Konoha Gate, then looked at Uchiha Yu who was having a friendly conversation with Mitarashi Anko ahead of him. Without hesitation, he quickly followed.
