The Uchiha Clan's Sun

If you don't know, then it's the same as not knowing!

Therefore, the name Runtu is still acceptable!

Without further ado, Obito Uchiha swiftly stored the sealed Black Zetsu into the Kamui dimension.

In a sense, this can be considered a seal for Black Zetsu, who has no spatial abilities!

Uchiha Jin waved his hand, and the flames that were still burning fiercely around him began to extinguish at a visible speed.

"Brother Jin! You..."

Yahiko, who had been waiting outside the wall of fire, was overjoyed to see this and immediately ran over with Konan, who was still unconscious, to check if Uchiha Jin was alright.

However, upon seeing Obito Uchiha standing next to King Uchiha, Yahiko's words abruptly stopped, and he paused in his tracks.

"Don't be nervous, he's no longer an enemy!"

Seeing this, Uchiha Jin also spoke up to explain.

"Private Masai, I was rude just now! I am Uchiha Obito. I just couldn't help but want to see your thoughts and determination because you look somewhat like my younger self!"

Obito Uchiha, who no longer went to extremes, was actually a good person in terms of personality. He didn't have the usual arrogance of a typical Uchiha. He bowed directly to Yahiko, trying to win Yahiko's forgiveness.

Fortunately, Obito Uchiha didn't do anything unforgivable to Yahiko at this time, and Yahiko actually felt a little embarrassed by what Obito did.

"No need for that. Since Xiao Nan is alright, it's not a big deal!"

That's just Yahiko's personality; as long as you don't cross his bottom line, everything is still possible.

On the contrary, Naruto Uzumaki, who shouted "You are not allowed to insult Obito" after learning that Obito Uchiha was the culprit who caused the death of his parents and the unhappiness of his childhood, was simply righteous to the point of being evil!

Even Uchiha Jin didn't know if Naruto Uzumaki in that state could still be considered human!

“Alright, what’s past is past,” Uchiha Jin said. “Time is of the essence, and I have many things to tell you!”

Both Obito Uchiha and Yahiko were taken aback and looked at Jin Uchiha with a puzzled expression.

Uchiha Jin looked at the two of them and explained, "I can't stay here any longer, so I plan to use Hanzo of the Salamander to slowly transfer the power in his hands to you!"

"The future of the Rain Kingdom depends on you!"

"Let Nagato prepare to stand in the sunlight!"

Chapter 63 Personal Disciple!

after one day.

The rain was falling softly.

Hanzo, the salamander, was wrapped in bandages and leaned against the bed, staring blankly at the rain outside the window.

The rain in Amegakure seems to never stop.

"Lord Hanzo, the three leaders of Akatsuki and their subordinates have arrived, and the heads and key members of various departments in Amegakure are also ready."

Tianyu appeared in the room, kneeling on one knee, her eyes filled with worry as she looked at Hanzo the Salamander.

A day earlier, Hanzo of the Salamander returned to Amegakure with his severely injured body, startling all the ninjas in Amegakure!

In the Land of Rain, in Amegakure, Hanzo the Salamander is their god!

If something were to happen to Hanzo the Salamander, it would be as if the sky had fallen over the Land of Rain!

Both Tianyu and Kanzang were extremely anxious and asked Hanzo the Salamander what had happened.

Hanzo of the Salamander simply said that both sides would be severely injured and did not explain further. He only asked Kanzo to invite Yahiko and the other two members of Akatsuki, and at the same time asked Tenyu to summon all the powerful figures in Amegakure, saying that there was an important announcement to make.

Although Tianyu and Kanzang were worried, they dared not disobey Hanzō's orders and had no choice but to do as he said.

"Let's go! It's time for the Land of Rain to move towards a bright future!"

Sansho Hanzo got up, casually put on a coat, and was the first to walk out of the room.

Tianyu felt a slight stirring in her heart, but said nothing and simply followed behind Hanzo the Salamander.

Before long, Hanzo the Salamander and Tengo arrived outside the main meeting room of Amegakure.

The conference room was already full of people.

Most of these people were powerful figures in various departments within Amegakure, while a small number were core members of the Akatsuki organization, led by Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan.

The ninjas of Amegakure were all curiously observing Yahiko and the others, whispering amongst themselves.

Most of them had heard of the Akatsuki organization to some extent, and some of them had even dealt with Yahiko and his group.

Their opinions on Yahiko, his two companions, and the Akatsuki organization varied widely, ranging from skepticism to optimism, disdain to admiration.

However, they were all very puzzled as to why these Akatsuki members would appear at their Amegakure internal meeting!

"Da da da......"

Hanzo the Salamander pushed open the door and walked into the large conference room, and the soft murmurs in the room instantly stopped!

Everyone showed Hanzo the Salamander the utmost respect and awe!

"Lord Hanzo, you're injured?!"

Just then, a Rain Ninja saw the bandages wrapped around Hanzo's body and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

The other Rain Ninjas also witnessed this scene, and the conference room immediately erupted in chaos!

"Lord Hanzo, who did this? I'll go and kill him!"

"I heard a few days ago that Lord Hanzo had been assassinated. I thought it was just a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true!"

"Even with Hanzo's strength, he was injured! Was it Konoha or Iwagakure who attacked him?"

......

The conference room was bustling with noise. Some wanted to avenge Hanzo the Salamander, some were asking what had happened, and others were trying to calm everyone down.

Without exception, everyone was outraged about Hanzo the Salamander being injured!

"quiet!"

Tian Yu shouted loudly, and the meeting room immediately fell silent again.

Hanzo the Salamander didn't explain anything and went straight to sit in the main seat. Tenyu, on the other hand, sat down in the first seat on the right below.

"Kanzang, come out and sit down too."

Hanzo the Salamander tapped the table and spoke.

"Yes!"

Kanzo, who had been hiding in the shadows protecting Hanzo the Salamander, revealed himself and sat down in the first seat on the left below.

Tenyu and Kanzang were always Hanzo's right-hand men, assisting him in managing Amegakure. They were similar to Hokage advisors and Konoha elders in Amegakure.

Given their status in Amegakure, no one would say anything if they each sat in the first position on the left or right.

Once everything was ready, facing everyone's gaze, Hanzo of the Salamander spoke up: "As you all know, the situation in the Land of Rain has suddenly become much more serious recently. The conflict between Konoha and Iwagakure has intensified, and there is even a tendency for our Amegakure to be dragged into the fray as well."

"According to my investigation, there is a force secretly stirring things up, trying to escalate our conflict!"

"However, I have already resolved this matter. These injuries were sustained during the battle with the mastermind behind it all!"

These words caused another uproar at the scene!

"I knew it! Why did the conflict between Konoha and Iwagakure suddenly escalate for no reason!"

"Several of our Amegakure squads were also attacked. The person behind that is truly a wolf in sheep's clothing!"

"To be able to do something like this, the other party must be incredibly powerful! Lord Hanzo, who exactly is behind this?"

The Rain Ninjas in the arena started talking amongst themselves, all curious about who was behind this mess.

Hanzo the Salamander shook his head slightly and said, "That person's identity is too complicated to disclose. I'm only saying this to let everyone know that this matter ends here, so please don't worry!"

Although Shimura Danzo acted in secret this time, he was, after all, an elder of Konoha, and every move he made represented the face of Konoha!

This time, Danzo Shimura suffered a setback in the Land of Rain. If no one mentions it, he might get away with it, but if word gets out, Konoha will definitely do something to get revenge, even if it's just to save face!

Furthermore, this matter had already ended, and bringing up Shimura Danzo now would only exacerbate the conflict between Amegakure and Konoha, which would be very detrimental to the future development of Amegakure!

Therefore, in order to avoid any complications, Hanzo the Salamander did not intend to reveal Danzo Shimura's identity.

The people sitting in this conference room are all elites from Amegakure. After hearing what Hanzo of the Salamander said, they all understood that the mastermind behind it must be a high-ranking member of one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages. Since this matter could not be revealed, they did not ask any further questions.

"Then what brings Lord Hanzo here today?"

Another Rain Ninja spoke up and asked.

Since Hanzo the Salamander said that the matter of the mastermind behind the scenes should not be investigated too deeply, then Hanzo the Salamander's solemn gathering of them this time must have something else going on.

"I called you here today to introduce you to three people," Hanzo the Salamander said, beckoning to Yahiko and the other two. "Yahiko, Nagato, Konan, you three come over here."

Under the curious gazes of everyone, Yahiko and his two companions stood up without flinching and walked to Hanzo the Salamander's side.

Hanzo of the Salamander then continued, "Everyone, these three are Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan from the Akatsuki organization. I'm sure you've all heard of them."

"From this day forward, the three of them will be my personal disciples, Hanzo the Salamander!"

Chapter 64 The Heir to the Land of Rain!

"Whoosh~~~~"

As Hanzo the Salamander spoke, the conference room erupted in chaos once again!

This sudden news shocked everyone!

That's Hanzo the salamander!

Hanzo the Salamander, leader of Amegakure and known as a demigod in the ninja world!

As the leader of Amegakure, Hanzo the Salamander is very concerned about the cultivation of talent within the village, and many of those present have received guidance from him.

Even so, Hanzo the Salamander never actually took on any disciples!

This is the first time for Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan!

No wonder everyone was surprised!

Before the people in the conference room could even recover, Hanzo the Salamander announced something else that shocked them!

Hanzo the Salamander continued, "I will groom these three to be the next leaders of Amegakure! In other words, these three will be the new leaders and elders of Amegakure in the future!"

Upon hearing this, the entire meeting room fell silent!

All the Rain Ninja and even the core members of the Akatsuki looked at Hanzo the Salamander in disbelief!

This news is even more shocking than the last one!

No, you can’t say that.

The fact that Hanzo the Salamander, who had never taken on any disciples before, suddenly accepted three personal disciples suggests that he intended to cultivate successors.

But to say it so openly is quite surprising.

However, Amegakure and the Land of Rain were originally Hanzo's personal fiefdom, so even if someone had some complaints, they didn't dare to refute him.

Hanzo the Salamander's gaze swept across the faces of everyone present, and he said, "I know that many of you don't understand why I made this decision!"

"But I am old, how many more years can I protect Amegakure?"

"If I don't cultivate someone who can lead Amegakure and the Land of Rain to continue on this path while I can still contribute, I will not die in peace!"

The Rain Ninja in the conference room were all moved by Hanzo's earnest words!

It was only then that they realized that Hanzo the Salamander, the man who had protected the Land of Rain for so many years, had really aged a lot!

Hanzo the Salamander continued, "In fact, I have been searching for a suitable successor for a long time, but I have not found one yet!"

"And the most outstanding among you are Tianyu and Kanzang."

"However, although they are all very capable in areas such as government affairs, they are still slightly inferior in terms of overall strength!"

"Our Rain Kingdom exists in the gap between the three great kingdoms of Fire, Earth, and Wind, making it a strategically vital location!"

"If the leader is too weak, he will not be able to lead the Rain Kingdom to survive in such an environment!"

Hanzo the Salamander spoke very directly, but Tengo and Kanzo, sitting below him, showed no dissatisfaction; instead, they both looked guilty.

It's their own incompetence that's causing Hanzo the Salamander so much trouble!
