Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer

Chapter 540: Hatake Sakumo and Uchiha Fugaku ([monthly pass] supplement

Views:

This chapter is a supplementary update for [Monthly Pass]!

Hatake Sakumo stared at Uchiha Fugaku closely. Now he didn't know what kind of thing Uchiha Fugaku had when he came to his side at this time. He would never openly tell Uchiha Fugaku in front of him. Kill Minato.

but…

You can’t say anything for sure!

After all, Minato's talent was too strong!

As long as such a person returns to Konoha Village, there is no way he can resist it. Not to mention that Minato himself has that idea, even if he doesn't, he will be pushed to the position of Hokage by many ninjas.

"Sakumo-sama, I'm here to thank you for saving me. If it weren't for your help, I might have encountered misfortune now." Uchiha Fugaku thanked him from the bottom of his heart, but he didn't know that what he had encountered The "Hatake Sakumo" was not the Hatake Sakumo in front of him.

"oh."

Hatake Sakumo's vigilance became even stronger. Such incomprehensible words were already classified by him as being out of words.

Since I have nothing to say, I'm looking for something to say.

Then there must be some real purpose hidden behind this.

"Is there anything else?"

Hatake Sakumo's tone became very cold. When he was guarding against Uchiha Fugaku, he would look at Minato from time to time. He was a very experienced ninja, and he would not let Minato leave his sight. Anyone who comes to attract his attention may be the bait to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

Hatake Sakumo knew that Uzumaki Kushina could also enter Sage Mode, but he didn't know how strong Uzumaki Kushina was, so he didn't calculate Uzumaki Kushina's combat power and just added his own strength.

"Forehead… "

Uchiha Fugaku instantly caught the subtle changes in Hatake Sakumo's eyes. He followed Hatake Sakumo's eyes and immediately noticed Namikaze Minato behind Uzumaki Kushina.

Understood!

understood!

He got it!

At this moment, he immediately understood what Hatake Sakumo meant!

Help take care of Minato, right

no problem!

Uchiha Fugaku didn't feel that Hatake Sakumo had any doubts about his gratitude. Seeing Hatake Sakumo's noncommittal look, he thought that was the case. It was not convenient to say more here. For now, he still had to protect Minato. host.

He is familiar with Minato!

Before leaving Konoha Village, his relationship with Uchiha Mikoto had made great progress. He felt that it wouldn't be long before Uchiha Mikoto would agree to be with him.

Uzumaki Kushina is Uchiha Mikoto's best friend.

So.

Isn't Namikaze Minato his good brother

In addition, he had a good relationship with Minato before, and now he has awakened and opened the Mangekyō Sharingan, so he can definitely do his part to protect Minato.

"Sakumo-sama, leave this to me, you can rest assured to do other things." Uchiha Fugaku immediately volunteered.

"here you are?"

Hatake Sakumo's frown deepened. He was just thinking about how Uchiha Fugaku would approach Minato, but he didn't expect him to say it so directly.

"You want me to leave?"

The corners of Hatake Sakumo's mouth twitched fiercely. He took a deep look at Uchiha Fugaku, and suddenly felt that this man did not look like a good person. Let alone handing Minato over to Uchiha Fugaku, he was worried. He didn't want Uchiha Fugaku to get close to Minato.

"yes!"

Uchiha Fugaku nodded without hesitation. That's what he thought, and that's what he said. He was not as alert as Hatake Sakumo. In his opinion, the people here are all brothers who have been through life and death, and there will be no one. When going to attack Minato, the only thing to be prepared for is a possible ambush.

"Sakumo-sama, you are still needed to take charge of the overall situation here. Just leave Minato to me. I can protect his safety." Uchiha Fugaku said firmly.

"I'll do it..."

Hatake Sakumo sneered, and he thought to himself, not to mention you can protect Minato's safety, you are Minato's biggest insecurity when you are by Minato's side.

Minato is very important to Konoha now.

This is the future of Konoha Village!

He would never leave the future in the hands of others easily, especially this Uchiha Fugaku who seemed to be very wrong.

"ah?"

Uchiha Fugaku was stunned for a moment. In fact, he had no intention of taking over Minato. He only spoke so after receiving a hint from Hatake Sakumo.

But…

Why doesn't Hatake Sakumo leave yet

This actually caused a lot of question marks to pop up in his head.

but.

Hatake Sakumo wears a half-sleeved Hokage robe and is the current commander of Konoha ninja. He has the necessity and obligation to obey Hatake Sakumo's orders.

"yes!"

Uchiha Fugaku immediately stopped fighting. He felt that he might have gotten the wrong idea. Hatake Sakumo might not have meant this, but it might have been something else.

"That… "

"I won't bother you anymore!"

"I'll go and watch from behind!"

Uchiha Fugaku's visit this time actually had nothing to do with Minato. He just wanted to express his gratitude to Hatake Sakumo, but he didn't expect that it would extend to Minato.

Suddenly.

Uchiha Fugaku prepared to slow down and return to the tail of the team.

"etc!"

However, at this moment, Hatake Sakumo suddenly spoke. When he said this, he looked directly at Uchiha Fugaku with wide eyes.

"Just stay here."

Hatake Sakumo just made such a decision in an instant. After all, for him, Uchiha Fugaku is by his side, that is, under his nose, no matter what decisions and actions Uchiha Fugaku makes , he can see clearly at the first time.

But if Uchiha Fugaku is sent back...

Then it is equivalent to putting Uchiha Fugaku in the dark. He has no idea when Uchiha Fugaku will come out next time and what kind of things he will do...

At this time.

He was tired too.

He didn't want to put so much energy into Uchiha Fugaku, and was always on guard against Uchiha Fugaku who might invade.

This way.

It's better to leave Uchiha Fugaku here.

"Uh uh... ok..."

Uchiha Fugaku was stunned for a moment, and then immediately agreed. His eyes were fixed on Hatake Sakumo next to him, and now there were a lot of little question marks in his head.

What is Sakumo-sama going to do

He was a little puzzled.

But for him.

Hatake Sakumo has a life-saving grace.

He trusted Hatake Sakumo very much, so he didn't say anything and followed Hatake Sakumo quietly.

Because the two people are walking side by side.

Uchiha Fugaku was in a state of thinking again.

His eyes were staring blankly at Minato in front of him, and while looking at Minato like this along the way, he was thinking about what exactly Sakumo-sama wanted to express.

But…

Such a picture.

Falling into Hatake Sakumo's eyes.

That's another story.

In his opinion.

That was Uchiha Fugaku's attempt to distract him and approach Minato but failed. After his action plan was disrupted, he began to think of other ways.

Think of this.

He became more cautious about Uchiha Fugaku.

He decided that he could not let Uchiha Fugaku settle down and think about these things, and he also wanted to mention something about Uchiha Fugaku, so he took the initiative to speak and started a new topic.

"Fugaku."

"do you know?"

"In the moments we just experienced together."

"I see the shadow of the first Hokage in Minato."

"at that moment… "

"This is how the First Hokage, single-handedly, supported the entire Konoha Village and allowed Konoha to stand at the top of the ninja world!"

Hatake Sakumo said meaningfully. When he said these words, his eyes glanced at Uchiha Fugaku from time to time, as if he wanted to understand the latter's meaning from the change of expression on Uchiha Fugaku's face.

"I feel the same way."

Uchiha Fugaku was not too doubtful about Hatake Sakumo's words. Just after he heard Minato talking about their victory, he was as excited as anyone else.

"I haven't seen you for a while."

"Minato gives me a completely different feeling."

"He's progressing so fast!"

"He's so talented!"

"If we compare it with the first Hokage, I don't think it's too much at all. With what Minato has done, I think he can be the fourth Hokage of the village!"

Uchiha Fugaku sighed from the bottom of his heart. He had vaguely heard before that Minato had the idea of becoming Hokage, but at that time, he felt that Minato was just an outstanding ninja and was far from the level of Hokage. , so there was still a long way to go, and at that time, he felt that Hatake Sakumo was the more likely person to become Hokage.

but…

After the extraordinary courage shown by Minato in the barrier just now, Uchiha Fugaku already understood.

Minato is now a Hokage-level ninja!

This is his time!

"Um?"

Hatake Sakumo just wanted to use his words to impress Uchiha Fugaku and let the latter know how important Minato is to Konoha Village and advise him not to think about taking action against Minato.

But…

The answer he got...

It wasn't a positive one, but it was the same compliment for Minato.

only.

These compliments are ringing in my ears.

It made him feel even more uneasy.

After all, these words can show that Uchiha Fugaku really understands how important Minato is, so he is more likely to take action against Minato before Minato returns to Konoha Village.

"Why… "

Here now.

Hatake Sakumo sighed helplessly.

"The First Hokage, there used to be a strong Uchiha like you next to you. It's just a pity that their ideas were analyzed later and the strong man left. Otherwise, Konoha Village will become more powerful. ..." Hatake Sakumo said meaningfully. His words had a hidden meaning. Anyone from the Uchiha clan could understand it. However, these words might hurt the Uchiha clan. If it wasn't for Minato to speak for him, he would You would never talk like this.

"You mean Uchiha Madara?"

Uchiha Fugaku's face suddenly became gloomy. He did not regard Uchiha Madara as a hero, but suddenly thought of something strange that happened to him.

some time ago.

He asked Qingyu.

Qingyu didn't answer what he heard at that time, but he remembered clearly that the first time Qingyu said "Madara-sama".

This matter had been weighing on his mind for a long time. He had always felt that Madara Uchiha might still be alive, but he had no evidence to prove his suspicion.

Until the third ninja war.

He still doesn't know why he broke away from the ninja army and went to the territory of the Earth Kingdom. Moreover, he has awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, but he can still fall into other people's illusions.

Only the content of that illusion was not very clear to him. It seemed that there was a strange guidance that led him to move forward in that direction.

I just haven't had time to think about it.

Think about it now.

is it possible…

The person who cast the genjutsu on him was Uchiha Madara
