As for more specific factors such as temptation, temptation..., he didn't say anything.

If only Hui and Zen were present, he would probably explain a thing or two.

But now, there are Uchiha Rin and others beside him, so it is inconvenient for him to speak.

Especially the children of Uchiha Han who are still in ninja school, they are a little too early to get in touch with this.

Chapter 110 Three: [Leaving the Village]

In the early morning, the entrance of Muye Village was very lively. Businessmen, civilians, or ninjas, people of different professions gathered together. They were not to meet some big person or watch the excitement, but purely to make way.

Make way for... the shadow of this village!

In the middle of the street, a heavy and sturdy carriage drove slowly through the crowd.Inside, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Uchiha Itachi sat facing each other.

Around the carriage, whether it was the groom or the four guards, were all ninjas wearing Jōnin vests.

And this is just a defensive force on the surface.

"This ostentation... can only be said to be worthy of Hokage's trip?"

"Actually, it's okay. You haven't seen those nobles travel. There are at least a hundred guards and maids accompanying them. The carriages they sit in are all made of precious wood, let alone the decorations on the carriages..."

"However, will this be too ostentatious? I heard that the situation in the ninja world is not safe recently."

……

People in the village were all talking about the carriage that drove slowly through the street, left the village in the eyes of everyone, and drove out of the village.

Even among the Uchiha, some people who came to see him off were unconsciously a little surprised.

They don't know why Sarutobi Hiruzen, who used to be low-key and steady, is so high-profile at this time point. Could it be that... the border between the two countries, the battle report about the country of Thunder's faint movement is fake?

But soon, they knew the reason.

"However, I heard that the relationship between Hokage-sama and Uchiha is not very good. Why do you want to travel with Uchiha Itachi this time?"

"Actually, the one who had the conflict with Uchiha at the beginning was only the department called "root". "

"So, it's not that Naruto-sama has a bad relationship with Uchiha, but that there are other people who have a bad relationship with Uchiha, and the three generations are just caught in the middle by them?"

……

From that day on, after the Uchiha Aomen called out the "roots" in public, this department is no longer just hidden in the dark.

At least, it has faintly appeared in the eyes of some people in Konoha.

According to some "clues", subtle voices of discussion sounded from the mouths of the villagers and ninjas, who were discussing and guessing about these things.

But even if they cover their ears and steal the bell, they lower their voices.But the eyes that drifted towards Uchiha from time to time at that time had already exposed their hearts and words.

"Hmph... as timid as a mouse."

Among the crowd, Uchiha Fugaku withdrew his gaze and led the clansmen away, "This old guy, I really thought that one move could lead to so many paths."

His voice was heard in the ear of his wife next to him in an extremely obscure manner.

"Some conflicts are provoked, and it is not so easy to calm down."

Uchiha Mikoto also had a cold face, changing from her usual gentleness, "But that's okay, I'm afraid that he will affect Itachi if he really left the village so blatantly."

Which mother can face the enemy with peace of mind while watching her child being plotted against?

Even... this old guy used to have a good relationship with them!

But that was a long time ago!

The face was turned so fast and so hard that she didn't believe the old man's amiable face at all. She just thought it was acting, and she just felt disgusted!

At this time, on the other side of the entrance of the village, a young figure wearing a bamboo hat was closely following the thin old man who was also wearing a bamboo hat in front, slowly passing through the barrier in the edge area.

During the process, the warning and defensive barriers around Konoha didn't mean to block them at all, but because of the chakra relationship between these two people, they slightly caused fluctuations like pebbles falling into the water.

But soon, when the two left the outer area of ​​Muye Village and entered the dense forest.

Several figures wearing animal masks appeared at the place where they had just passed through the barrier.

"The footsteps match, the time matches, the chakra attributes of the enchantment induction match..."

These figures were like locusts in the crop field. They did not let go of the traces left by the old and the young who left just now, confirming the identities of the two of them bit by bit.

"The First Minister of the Ming Dynasty"

From the traces of footsteps left on the soil, from the time point, from the attributes of Chakra, the amount of Chakra...

They carried out the confirmation work accurately and meticulously, until at the end, one of them spoke slowly and announced the result, "Confirm the target to leave Konoha, Xin, please inform Danzo-sama as soon as possible."

"The rest, follow me first."

"Remember, our mission this time is only for tracking, not for assassination."

"Yes!"

A unanimous response sounded from under each mask. Although the voice lines were different, there were men and women, high and low, but the tone was exactly the same.

It's all like that, icy cold gestures.

Then, the commander led the others through the barrier and left Konoha.

When they left, the barrier around the Konoha also did not give any warning or obstruction, only the slight ripples produced when the chakra in their bodies echoed the chakra on the barrier.

In the same place, another person rushed to the outer area of ​​Konoha from a different direction.

It is not difficult to see that the goal of this group of people is Sarutobi Hiruzen.

And its main messenger is the "root" that has conflicts and disputes with Uchiha!

At the same time, as the carriage of the third Hokage left Konoha, the blocked road near the entrance of Konoha Village was gradually released, merchants from outside the village, civilians, and ninjas who went out...

They all passed the village entrance in a hurry, and the ninjas who left ripples on the enchantment needed to register in detail at the village entrance guard.

And those passers-by who carry goods and are defined as "ordinary people" only need to give a simple description of the purpose of leaving and entering the village.

"Itachi, do you think that little old man like me is afraid of death?"

And among the crowd from the village, there was also an old man and a young man, the very ordinary-looking grandpa and grandson slowly walked past Konoha's village entrance and passed through Konoha's barrier.

And the two of them did not cause the ripples of the Konoha Barrier, and were defined as "ordinary people" without chakra!

Even, the ninjas in the garrison can find the records of their grandfather and father's entry into the village from the record book!

"Three generations of adults have a high position and authority, so it is always right to be cautious."

Itachi calmly replied, at this moment, all the chakras in his body were sealed.

Even the features on the face have become different under the exquisite makeup technique, they are ordinary, just like a cowherd boy in the farmland.

And standing beside him, the old Sarutobi Hiruzen also set the same sealing technique for himself.

Moreover, he also painted himself a very heavy makeup, which showed an old face, darker and thinner, like an old farmer who has been working in the farmland all year round, it is completely impossible to see that this is a powerful Ninjao of the wind and cloud.

And the reason they did this was naturally to leave Konoha quietly.

"Ugh……"

To Itachi's response, Hiruzaru Sarutobi seemed very decadent, "Itachi, what kind of person do you think your Uncle Minato is?"

"Fourth Hokage is a very sunny and convincing person."

Itachi continued to reply calmly, bluntly expressing his thoughts.

"Yes, anyone who has seen him should have this impression."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi walked slowly, with his hands behind his back and his back hunched, "Actually, I've been thinking, that night, if I could die for your Uncle Minato, that would be great."

"I, an old and useless person, can also make a perfect ending at the last moment of my life."

"But unfortunately... oh..."

As he said that, he sighed again, in a distressed and painful tone, "Itachi, do you think it's better for me to be alive, or for Minato to be alive?"

Chapter 110 Four: [Ask for advice]

Who is better off alive?

Itachi calmly stopped, staring at Hiruzen Sarutobi, "I personally think that Konoha's situation was more stable during Mr. Namikaze's reign."

The words are euphemistic, but the meaning is clear.

As for Itachi's blunt statement that "I hope that the living person is Namikaze Minato", Sarutobi Hiruzawa was obviously taken aback. He originally thought that this child would think for a long time.

Such a resolute opening is based on the pure and thoughtless words under the child's words, or is it that Uchiha Fugaku had expected it a long time ago and taught Itachi to speak like this in advance?

"It's a little sad. I'm an old man, and I'm really disgusted."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi also stopped in his tracks, expressing his disappointment with extremely poor acting skills, "Compared to me, it would be more gratifying if Minato survived."

Obviously, he should have better acting skills, but he performed it in such a clumsy way.

"The flame of fallen leaves when they burn will illuminate the sprouting of new leaves."

Itachi didn't think too much about it, and said bluntly again, "I don't know the specific situation that night, but I think that those who can say such words should be able to sacrifice themselves for the new generation."

In his speech, he did not hide his maturity, pretending to be a simple child, trying to deceive Hiruzaru Sarutobi.

Lies will always be exposed.

Rather than lying and leaving all kinds of loopholes, it is better to tell the truth.

As long as it is true, there will be no loopholes.

And how to tell the truth without arousing Sarutobi Hiruzen's resentment, so as to generate killing intent towards himself, requires certain skills.

"Looks like I let you down."

Sarutobi Hirzen's face, which was still performing clumsily, darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye, "Actually, when I arrived, Minato had already started to burn his life."

His tone seemed to be retorting, but his demeanor seemed to be irritated with embarrassment.

"Hearing these words, I have a deeper admiration for the Fourth Hokage. He has carried out this belief."

Itachi's face darkened towards him, and his face didn't fluctuate too much. Instead, he looked at him calmly, "Perhaps...he can also consider what kind of burden his sacrifice will bring to Konoha."

"He also knows that if he waits a few minutes longer, most of the ninjas in the village will arrive, and he doesn't necessarily need to sacrifice himself."

"But for the sake of the new leaves, he was willing to burn himself, just not to delay those few minutes and cause greater casualties. This is admirable. So as the rescued party, I hope he can survive."

He paused at this point, "If the third generation of adults died that night, I will also say the same words to the fourth generation of Hokage, and I hope you can survive."

This is a fact.

If it was Sandai Hokage who was sacrificed that night, perhaps the relationship between Konoha and Uchiha would not have declined so quickly.

I should have the opportunity to regret and regret the end of this generation of ninja.

Anyone who implements his beliefs and implements them to the end is worthy of admiration.

As for Itachi's words, Hiruzaru Sarutobi stopped silent for a long time.

"It sounds like Itachi adores Minato."

He said something with emotion, and the expression on his face was like changing his face, "Let's go, let's stop talking here, and I will help you unlock the seal of Chakra."

"The time limit for the famous post I sent out before is not much longer."

"Being on time is a good quality and can leave a good impression on people. Next, we have to travel a long way every day."

Saying that, Hiruzaru Sarutobi formed seals with both hands, and released the seal technique on himself and the seal technique on Itachi's body.

A second ago, he was still indifferent, gloomy, and angry from embarrassment.But in the next second, he seemed to return to that amiable old man and elder.

"Quickly move."

With the release of the Chakra seal, Hiruzen Sarutobi's slow movements became smoother, and his thin figure was like a nimble little monkey, scurrying in the mountains and forests, crossing various difficult and complicated terrains with ease .

And Itachi also followed closely behind his figure, almost inseparable.

In this regard, Hiruzaru Sarutobi, who was secretly observing him, narrowed his eyes slightly, paying attention to his chakra flow trajectory very complicatedly.

"Is it really good to expose your strength so directly? He is watching you."

In the world invisible to Sarutobi Hiruzen, Artoria followed closely, "Aren't you afraid that he will kill you because of your high talent?"
