Chapter 28: The Will of Fire Fails to Spread, the Daimyo Questions Hiruzen

It would have been fine if he had just kept nagging, but what made Yan roll his eyes was that the Third Hokage actually kept talking to him about the Will of Fire.

Are you treating him as Shisui No. 2?

Listening to the Third Hokage talking about the greatness of the village and the inheritance of the will of fire, not only Yan and Feng couldn't stand it, even Izumi, who had just stepped out of the Ninja Academy and had a heart full of love for the village, couldn't stand it.

If he wasn't afraid of being scolded by Yan, Quan would even want to get goosebumps all over his body.

"Jing is my companion, my friend, and also my teacher's disciple. It's a pity that he... Alas~"

"........"

The ANBU ninjas who had been following in the dark all looked at Kakashi.

They really want to ask, since when did Lord Hokage start to reminisce about the past?

The Third Hokage kept chattering all the way until night fell, when he finally stopped.

Would the Third Hokage transfer Yan to his side for no reason and nag him for the entire afternoon?

Obviously, no.

There is a purpose for doing this, but the results are not so satisfactory.

After an afternoon of testing, the Third Hokage was certain that Yan was different from ordinary Uchiha people.

Although he cannot become Shisui No. 2 or Shisui's backup, the biggest difference between Yan and other Uchiha people is that Yan has no resistance to the village.

Even though there is currently a lot of distrust between the village and the Uchiha.

"An Uchiha is an Uchiha of the village and will always be a member of the village. I firmly believe that."

This is one of the few things Yan said that could satisfy the Third Hokage.

In addition to these, what the Third Hokage could not accept was that Yan seemed to have no feeling at all for the Will of Fire.

No matter how much he talked, Yan still didn't react much.

It is obvious that Yan is an Uchiha who recognizes the village but excludes the Will of Fire.

"Captain, next time something like this happens, don't take me with you."

While on patrol, Feng couldn't help but complain.

If he hadn't been scared by the Third Hokage's constant talking, he would never have said such words with his personality.

After all, he used to say: If I don’t want to hear it, I can ignore it.

This shows how powerful the Third Hokage's mouth is.

You think I want to?

If possible, Yan Ning would rather disgust himself, grab a pile of shit with his own hands, and stuff it into the Third Hokage's mouth so that he would shut up quickly.

"Just bear with it. I think I'll be free tomorrow."

If Yan guessed correctly, the Third Hokage's constant nonsense definitely had a purpose, maybe even to test him.

Once you have tried it, you will naturally stop talking so much nonsense.

He and others couldn't bear to listen to it. The Third Hokage was old, and his throat must be sore after talking so much. It was a typical case of killing one thousand enemies but losing eight hundred of his own.

Our ears can't take it, and your throat can't bear it. No one should expect to have an easy life.

Look, the Third Hokage doesn't want to say a word at this moment. He talked too much during the day and his throat is almost smoking.

Nothing happened that night. Yan Hefeng knew that when the Hokage traveled, he was secretly protected by Anbu ninjas, so he didn't pay much attention to the patrols and vigilance around him.

On the contrary, Izumi was concentrating on his work, fearing that a few enemies would suddenly appear from nowhere and assassinate the Third Hokage.

Just as Tong Yan guessed, the Third Hokage fell silent the next day and remained almost silent throughout the journey. The team arrived at the Daimyo Prefecture that afternoon.

The group headed straight for the palace where the damingfu lived.

In the Land of Fire, theoretically, the Daimyo and the Hokage are equals.

It’s a pity that the Third Hokage is not as strong-willed as the First and Second Hokage, so if he wants to meet the Daimyo, he needs to inform him first.

For those who need money, it is difficult to stand up straight.

Looking at the Third Hokage waiting patiently with his hands behind his back in front of the palace, it is hard to imagine that this old man is the one who has the final say in Konoha.

"Huh, are you finally willing to come?"

After receiving the notification, the daimyo shouted in dissatisfaction:

"Let him in. I want to see how Sarutobi Hiruzen explains this matter."

"Your Excellency may go in, but you cannot bring so many people with you."

The attendant looked at Yan and others around the Third Hokage. After all, they were going to meet the daimyo, so they could bring guards, but they couldn't bring all of them into the palace.

"Ah."

The Third Hokage expressed his understanding: "Yan, you come in with me."

"Yes."

Yan said to Quan and Feng:

"You two should find a place to rest first. I will come find you after we are done here."

As he spoke, he made some gestures to Feng that only they could understand. Feng nodded slightly and left the palace with Quan.

The Hokage saw that the daimyo could not bring too many guards or weapons, and no one knew who set this weird rule.

Yan feels that he is inseparable from the idiot Hashirama Senju.

He was the only one who thought that the Hokage was too powerful and would pose a serious threat to the Daimyo.

Compared to the Hokage's office building, the Daimyo's palace was truly luxurious. Even though he was mentally prepared, Yan was still amazed. It has to be said that having money means being willful.

Following is from the moment you arrive at the main hall of the palace, you can see the daimyo with a donkey face.

The daimyo seems to be in a bad mood?

With full of doubts, the Third Hokage stepped forward, nodded slightly, and spoke first: "Daimyo."

"Humph!"

The response waiting for the Third Hokage was a disapproving snort from the Daimyo.

When did the daimyo become so ill-tempered? Was this the daimyo who was so scared by Danzo's glare that he almost shrank into his chair?

What is going on here?

Yan was a little surprised.

"Sarutobi Hiruzen, you still have the nerve to come here, aren't you ashamed?"

The daimyo didn't even bother to address him as Hokage, and just called the Third Hokage by his name, then took the lead in knocking him down with a stick.

The Third Hokage was confused. What did I do? Why should I be ashamed? Why can't I come to the Daimyo's mansion?

"I don't know what the lord means by this. Did I offend the lord in some way?"

Judging from the situation, if we don’t calm the anger of the daimyo first, there will be no talk of funding this year.

"See for yourself."

The daimyo didn't even bother to explain and directly threw the scroll aside to the Third Hokage.

Didn’t you say you didn’t offend me?

Then take a good look and see what you, Konoha, have done.

I was so scared that I had to find a place to hide when I sleep these days.

When Daimyo thought of the injustices he had suffered over the years, his face became even uglier.

Could it be that the information that was released fell into the hands of the daimyo?

Yan raised his hand to take the scroll, handed it to the Third Hokage, and continued to stand there and watch the show.

Today's drama seemed very exciting. Yan himself did not expect that a piece of information that had little truth at all would make the Daimyo so angry.

As expected, the better people are at living and the more carefree they are, the more they fear death. Daming is the best example.

The Third Hokage frowned and opened the scroll. He was very eager to know why the Daimyo was so angry.
