A Hero Returns

The next day, at the entrance of Konoha.

Konoha's enchantment had the effect of perception, aura recognition, sound isolation, and so on.

However, it did not isolate one's sight, and one could see each other inside and outside.

Hatake Dou had just pushed Uchiha Tunan to the entrance of the village to tie the knot, and when he saw the scene inside, he subconsciously stopped.

Uchiha Tunan's lips trembled slightly as she said in a low voice,

You don't have enough experience. The later scenes might make you feel a little uncomfortable.

Try to talk less. If others ask you, just pretend to be afraid of strangers.

"Yes."

Dou nodded his head and remembered Uchiha Tunan's words. He braced herself and pushed the wheelchair into the barrier.

The moment he stepped into the barrier, the entire world became noisy and quiet.

On both sides of the road, on top of the houses, and on the branches, there were all ninjas and villagers who came to welcome him.

"Lord Tunan is back."

"Why is Lord Tunan sitting on the wheel chair?"

"Is there something wrong with his eyes?"

"I heard that a fierce battle broke out in the northern front. Lord Tunan used a forbidden technique to kill thousands of ninjas. Later, he used a forbidden technique that burned his life to kill Raikage."

"Such a serious injury, so it is the side effect of the forbidden technique?"

"What a pity. Lord Tunan is crippled at such a young age."

"I hope he can pull himself together. Hidden Mist is too hateful."

The villagers were all moving up and down, as if they were about to rush up.

However, they were stopped by the ninja who was standing in front of them to maintain order.

This scene was simply like gongs and drums, firecrackers were ringing together, colorful flags were fluttering, a sea of people.

With a glance, Hatake Dou saw an old man standing at the front of the road wearing a royal robe and a bamboo hat with a kind smile on his face.

On the bamboo hat was a big word of fire.

Was this Hokage of Konoha?

He was really smiling at his teacher.

Hiruzen Sarutobi stood in front of the crowd. Although he maintained a smile on his face, his heart was filled with anxiety.

This kid has returned safely. It seems that the six trusted subordinates he sent out are in danger.

I don't know if they were exposed or not. I was the one who ordered them.

If this kid knew, he wouldn't turn against me in public, would he?

Hiruzen Sarutobi's hands were covered in sweat. If Uchiha Tunan shouted later, he would say that he had sent someone to assassinate him.

Although he was prepared to wash away the suspicion, it would still cause a large number of Ninjas and villagers to suspect him.

This would cause a serious blow to his reputation.

Seeing that Uchiha Tunan was getting closer and closer, Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep breath and quickly walked towards him.

Just as he was about to give him a heart-stirring comfort so that he could buy people's hearts.

Suddenly, Uchiha Tunan, whose eyes were wrapped in bandages, raised his head and sniffed with his nose. He exclaimed,

"This smell is so familiar. Teacher! Is teacher you?"

The words of comfort that Hiruzen Sarutobi had prepared were stuck in his throat. He raised his eyebrows slightly.

This kid actually still remembers my smell.

His heart was inexplicably moved.

He immediately came to Uchiha Tunan and smiled. "Tunan, I am here. Konoha welcomes you back."

With that, he bent down and reached out to hold Uchiha Tunan's hand.

Uchiha Tunan immediately took a step forward and grabbed Hiruzen Sarutobi's hand. He clenched his teeth and said hoarsely,

"Teacher, they are dead. Six thousand brothers and sisters have died on the battlefield."

Uchiha Tunan went straight to the topic. This made Hiruzen Sarutobi's draft completely lose its capacity.

A heavy expression appeared on Hiruzen Sarutobi's face. He sighed and said,

"I am also very sad about this, but war is so cruel, so we have to cherish peace more."

Uchiha Tunan slowly shook his head and said hoarsely,

It was my fault. If I had been a little stronger.

If I had not been injured in the Western Front from the beginning, many of them would not have died.

However, the color of the snow-white bandage on Uchiha Tunan's eyes darkened a little, but it was wet with tears.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyebrows were full of sadness, and he said earnestly,

You have done very well, killing Raikage.

You have done a great job for Konoha and avenged them. Come back and rest well.

Uchiha Tunan suddenly became excited and shouted:

"No, I don't deserve any credit."

This time, I came back to plead guilty.

No matter what, as the commander-in-chief, if I did not protect them well, I would be guilty. I deserve to die!

Teacher, please order me to return to the battlefield. I can continue to fight.

Although I am blind, my legs are crippled.

However, I can still use Ninjutsu. I can use my voice to determine the enemy's position.

"Woo."

Some of the soft-hearted women in the crowd began to cover their mouths and cry.

The villagers and ninjas who were slightly stronger also lowered their heads, unable to look.

Looking at Uchiha Tunan's excited appearance, Hiruzen Sarutobi remembered the scene from when they first met.

Although the relationship between the two was very stiff because of some things, Hiruzen Sarutobi could not admit it even if he asked himself.

Everything that Uchiha Tunan did was not wrong to Konoha.

The matter between Shinnosuke and Asuma was indeed Uchiha Tunan's fault.

However, regarding Tsunade and Orochimaru, Uchiha Tunan did not have any selfish motives. He was completely from the perspective of the village.

At that time, he was not strong enough, but he dared to risk his life.

On the contrary, it was him. His actions in the open and in the dark had traces of favoritism.

Perhaps, the reason why I stood against him was because I did not love the village as much as him.

For some reason, the hatred in Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart towards Uchiha Tunan suddenly faded a lot.

He immediately held Uchiha Tunan's hand and said with slight force,

Tunan! I know the grief in your heart.

When I heard the news of their deaths, I was also the same.

But we should not be immersed in grief. We must pull ourselves together and work hard to end this cruel war.

Rest in peace in Konoha. I have already transferred Minato to the northern front.

The follow-up support is about to set off.

Uchiha Tunan choked, his face full of helplessness:

"But I don't know how to face the family of the six thousand brothers and sisters."

A distressed expression appeared on Hiruzen Sarutobi's face. He patted the back of Uchiha Tunan's hand with his other hand and comforted:

The villagers of Konoha are sensible.

I believe that they won't blame you. Don't blame yourself too much.

Uchiha Tunan nodded silently.

Suddenly, Uchiha Tunan seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly leaned forward and said excitedly,

"Teacher, I kneel down to you. I have a favor to ask of you."

Hiruzen Sarutobi was quick to react and quickly supported Uchiha Tunan. He said,

"Don't, don't, don't. Sit down. If you have anything to say, just say it."

You are the hero of Konoha. If you have any requests, feel free to ask.

Uchiha Tunan was helped to sit down and said in a pleading tone,

"Can the compensation for the six thousand brothers and sisters be doubled?"

I know that the village is in a tight financial situation, so I borrowed Konoha.

In the future, I will work for Konoha and pay back the money.

This.

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Uchiha Tunan and was dumbfounded.

The compensation of six thousand Ninjas was doubled. This was not a joke.

How many billion would that cost?

With your current state, how could the village arrange a mission for you?

I've done all the favors for you, and the money has to be paid by the village.

Moreover, if the pension on this side was doubled, then what about the others on the other side?

If not for fully doubled, then the number of people on the other side would definitely be uneven.

The family members of the ninjas would definitely make a ruckus, and this way, the hearts of the people would disperse.

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi was a little suspicious of whether Uchiha Tunan had planned this beforehand.

Throwing out this difficult problem, it was either stupid or bad.

In front of so many ninjas and villagers, Hiruzen Sarutobi had no way to refuse.

Uchiha Tunan was not afraid of Hiruzen Sarutobi refusing. This sentence had already been said, and the favor had already been obtained.

It didn't matter if he gave the money or not.

Okay, I promise you.

Konoha will pay for this, and the compensation for all the dead will be doubled.

You are a hero of Konoha, how can you pay it back? Konoha will pay it back even if it costs everything.

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded heavily, his heart bleeding.

When Uchiha Tunan heard this, he secretly sneered in his heart.

This is what you said. When I impeach you from abdicating your position.

It is a good crime to decide on a high pension and cause the finances of the village to be tight.

To be honest, Hiruzen Sarutobi's political ability was a little too weak.

If it was Uchiha Tunan who faced this situation, he would only say:

Don't worry, they are all heroes of Konoha, and Konoha won't treat them badly.

Then go back and slightly raise the pension.

It can't be raised according to the proportion, but add a fixed amount, and it also has to be crowned in the name of a heroic allowance.

If you can't give them profits, then give them more names.

Once a family member asks, do a good job for them.

Speaking of how difficult the village was, the rest of the money had to be spent on education and medical treatment, which were closely related to them.

If there were too many people who didn't buy it, then they would take out the big killing weapon and add points for the exam in the Ninja School.

He easily solved this problem.

"Long live Lord Tunan!"

"Long live Lord Tunan!"

"Thank you Lord Tunan, you are the hero of Konoha."

"To think that I was cursing you in my heart before. I really am not human."

Keiko, don't blame yourself. Although your husband is dead.

But you have double the pension now, and I am here.

I will definitely make you happy.

"Long live Lord Tunan!"

......

Ding... gain the recognition of Mizushina Emiko.

Ding... gain the recognition of Takashi Koto.

Ding! Obtain the recognition of Miyato Yuki.

"Ding! Obtain the recognition of Ishikawa Yuu."

"Ding! Obtain the recognition of Tatsume Yoko."

......

Hearing the shouts of the villagers, Hiruzen Sarutobi's face twitched slightly.

He felt as if he was making a wedding dress for someone else. It was so uncomfortable that he wanted to die.

In order to prevent Uchiha Tunan from making any more unreasonable requests.

Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly looked up at the Hatake Dou behind the wheelchair and changed the topic.

"This is the child you took in, Tunan, right? Hatake Dou, right?"

He looked like a good child, especially when he wore this pair of glasses.

It's exactly the same as you when you were a child, Tunan.

Hatake Dou felt a puff of smoke coming from his face. He shrunk his head and pretended to be afraid of strangers.

In his heart, he thought, "Sir, your judgment is too accurate. Come on, come on!" This old man sent someone to assassinate you, and then he greeted you with a smile. "

Are the people of Konoha so hypocritical?

Uchiha Tunan had also achieved his goal.

As a hero, he still needed to keep a distance from the villagers.

He could not be exposed to the public for a long time, and mystery was also one of the factors to maintain worship.

He immediately sighed to the sky and muttered in a sorrowful tone,

"Dou, take me to the memorial tablet. I miss those brothers and sisters."

Hiruzen Sarutobi was eager for Uchiha Tunan to leave quickly.

He immediately made way with a kind and kind smile and shouted to the people on the road behind him,

"Everyone, get out of the way. Don't block the road to the home of the hero."
