Chapter 18 Fu Cheng's 'Loyalty'!
This is the real reason why Hiruzen Sarutobi keeps investigating Yuuki.
He planned to have Tsunade take Yuuki as her disciple.
Isn't that very daring?
Since we're planning to recruit Uchiha Yuuki, let's just go all the way and recruit him completely.
"Thank you for your trust, Hokage-sama." Yuuki's face flushed with excitement as he repeatedly expressed his gratitude. "I will definitely continue to work hard and research diligently for the rise of the village."
The two reached a good consensus on the 'Will of Fire'.
Yuuki went out to the hospital to continue reporting his thoughts to Tsunade.
Uchiha Tomioka, who had been waiting, seamlessly took over and decisively walked into the Hokage's office.
He had long wanted to pledge his loyalty to the Hokage.
Shadow is ultimately the highest authority in the village.
Whether the Hokage accepts loyalty or not is the result of a conversation between the two parties.
Whether he comes or not is a matter of attitude, a problem inherent to him.
As soon as Fu Cheng entered the office, he heard a pleasant surprise.
"Really? Tsunade might take Yuuki as her disciple?"
Fu Cheng's surprise was palpable.
Signal!
He believed he had received a signal from the Hokage!
This is recognition and acceptance of the Uchiha clan!
Surely no one is naive enough to think that the succession of the Kage position is entirely determined by a vote of Jonin, right?
Even the Daimyo of the Land of Fire only has negligible right to offer advice and sign documents to the successor of the Shadow.
The selection of Kage often comes from the Hokage's master, disciples, relatives, bodyguards, etc.
As one of the Hokage's disciples, Tsunade naturally carries the mark of the Hokage lineage.
This is undoubtedly telling Fu Cheng that as long as the Uchiha perform well, that position is also possible.
"Tomishiro! The ninja world is in turmoil, and the village needs the Uchiha's help at any time. I hope you can manage the clan well. I also know that since that incident, the younger generation of the Uchiha has suffered heavy losses. Such reckless incidents must never be allowed to happen again."
Hiruzen Sarutobi had given serious thought to how to deal with the Uchiha clan.
The initial strategy was to leave the Uchiha clan alone.
A chaotic Uchiha is a good Uchiha.
and so--
He prevented Danzo from interfering with the Uchiha clan, provided them with sufficient funds, and did not exert external pressure.
But the plans couldn't keep up with the changes.
The emergence of the genius Yuuki changed his perspective.
What's even more troublesome is the strange behavior of the old ghost in an instant!
Times have changed, and hawks have begun to rise, but who knows what they're up to behind the scenes.
Hiruzen Sarutobi must intervene in time, otherwise Setsuna will stage another coup, which would be disgusting.
When that incident was mentioned, Fu Cheng couldn't help but sigh.
Too many outstanding young people in the family died in the competition for the position of patriarch.
Thanks to the governing elder... my thoughts returned.
"Lord Hokage!" Fu Cheng could barely contain his excitement as he repeatedly pledged his loyalty, "Thank you for the village's trust. I am willing to lead my people to the battlefield in the Land of Rain to avenge Yanagi!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi's lips twitched as he refused, saying, "The village will handle the affairs of the Land of Rain. You must take care of your clan's internal matters and maintain the village's safety."
Whether war will break out is still uncertain.
Perhaps the Land of Rain will voluntarily hand over the ferocious beast.
If a large number of Uchiha were sent out, a fight would probably break out in no time!
Fu Cheng was slightly disappointed, but seized the opportunity to continue to express his loyalty.
"Understood, Lord Sandai."
"Under the leadership of the Hokage, the village has continued to expand and become more prosperous. There are more and more shops along the street, and the police department is sometimes unable to keep up. We hope the Hokage will understand."
No one dislikes being flattered, unless there's nothing praiseworthy about them.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had been in power for over a decade, considered his greatest achievement to be the rapid recovery of Konoha's economy.
Under his leadership, Konoha Village prospered day by day.
At the same time, I am also satisfied with Fu Cheng's sensibility.
However, this will of fire isn't intense enough...
Hiruzen Sarutobi put down his pipe and said, "Tomonari, I believe in you. I hope you will accomplish something great as soon as possible."
He was satisfied with the outcome of today's conversation.
Fu Cheng's almost open surrender sent a good signal.
At least the current clan chief is focused on easing tensions with the village, which is a good start.
I wonder if Tsunade is alright at the hospital.
...
"Greetings, Lady Tsunade. My name is Uchiha Yuuki. I am nine years old and have been studying at the Ninja Academy for two and a half years. My dream is to become an excellent medical ninja."
"This is the Hokage's order."
Tsunade sat in the chair and looked Yuuki up and down without any hesitation, then couldn't help but purse her lips.
She's quite good-looking, actually.
He truly lives up to his reputation as a member of the Uchiha clan.
Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi had predicted, Tsunade herself did not have much prejudice against the Uchiha clan.
Of course, there won't be any goodwill towards them.
Uchiha Setsuna's rebellion is a dark history that stands between the village and the Uchiha clan.
No one has tried to remove it until now, but perhaps it will happen today.
"You want to become a medical ninja? Kid, studying medicine is a very tough job."
A few days after her father's funeral, Tsunade had basically recovered.
In the ninja world where human life is as cheap as grass, ninjas who risk their lives on kunai have long been accustomed to the death of their loved ones.
“Yes.” Yuuki gave his reason: “I want to learn medicine to treat bloodstain disease. If I can’t cure it, I can help my companions.”
Yuuki's serious tone made Tsunade less suspicious.
No wonder the old man entrusted the Uchiha brat to her.
It turns out he was a brat who inherited the Will of Fire.
Tsunade waved her hand and said, "Very good, very spirited! From today onwards, you are my subordinate!"
Yuuki nodded his thanks.
He definitely had doubts about Tsunade's teaching abilities.
But he fully acknowledged the wealth of this blond man with big headlights!
"As my subordinate, the first thing is for you to do." Tsunade stood up from her chair and pulled Yuuki back to his seat. "Your grades are good. Help me solve this headache-inducing report first."
"I'm off work now. See you at eight o'clock tomorrow morning!"
Huh? Me?
Yuuki looked at the data reports on the table with disbelief on his face.
Looking up again, Tsunade had a relaxed smile on her face and strode out of the office.
Are you really entrusting me with so much official business?
However, Yushu felt relieved. He was still uneasy until the transfer to the hospital was finalized.
Once war breaks out, both ordinary ninjas and medical ninjas may have to go to the battlefield.
However, the probability of a medical ninja leaving the village is slightly lower.
More importantly, medical ninjas don't have to deal with the tasks that the village forcibly assigns them!
Yuuki unfolded all the scrolls and carefully read their contents.
No wonder Tsunade entrusted him with the task with peace of mind.
It wasn't important official business at all; it was just a certificate for disposing of discarded medical supplies.
Statistical review is already tedious, especially dealing with this group of worthless data, which makes the motivation even less effective.
At Konoha Hospital, there is no situation where discarded medical supplies are replaced with inferior ones.
This is because medical ninjas have such comprehensive chakra manipulation skills that they can judge the quality of medical supplies with just a little inspection.
Yuuki didn't care about the complicated work and seemed to be diligently checking the data.
In reality, his mind had already wandered far away.
As the saying goes, to repel external threats, one must first secure internal stability.
He has laid a solid foundation for Konoha's basic stability.
It's time for him to make his voice heard within the Uchiha clan.
