A few days later, Sarutobi Shinnosuke finally returned to the Fire Capital from Konoha after completing his mission. As soon as he reached, his first stop was Naruko’s residence. “Your Highness, I have delivered the letters.” Naruko nodded and said with a gentle look, “You truly have worked hard. Go and instruct the attendant to go to Nahara’s place and …

Sarutobi Shinnosuke’s mind was alerted by First Highness, Naraku’s thinly veiled threat. In fact, he did not know the best way to get into Nahara’s good books now after having spent so much time with Naraku’s personal shadow guard. Weighing the overall situation, he immediately replied, “Your Highness, you have my word. Not only will I complete this mission for …

Uchiha Tonan walked out of the small courtyard of the study hall, and when he passed the back garden, he happened to encounter the Daimyo, who had come to ‘eavesdrop’. Tonan immediately greeted, “Your Majesty.” Realizing he was found, the Daimyo said with an embarrassed look, “Seimei-dono, how is Naraku doing lately?” Tonan smiled lightly, “The First Highness is very …

That night, Uchiha Tonan led the North City Guard members to wipe out all the big and small underground organizations in the entire North City area. To get his hands on a sizeable sum of money in the shortest possible time, he could only use these means. In his rough estimate, he had harvested total assets of nearly 300 million …

Disguised as Abe Seimei, who had taken a special place of fear and hatred in Naraku’s heart, Uchiha Tonan looked to use the oldest reason to create a divide between the father and son. Naraku, however, was very doubtful of his sensei’s words that indicated his father was not considering him to be the next in line of succession. Anyone …

A few days later, at about 3:20 in the morning, the sky had just begun to brighten. Many people in the Daimyo Residence were still deep in dreamland when Uchiha Tonan broke the silence and rushed into the First Highness’ room again. He ruthlessly dragged Naraku to the study hall’s courtyard. Crack, crack, crack… Whipping sounds echoed to the farther …

Uchiha Tonan was cold-blooded and ruthless. Seeing the tortured and drenched Naraku, he said, “Why are you not going into the classroom?” A hint of resentment and fear flashed in Naraku’s eyes, but he didn’t dare to utter a word and ran into the classroom. Tonan came to the podium, and gently said to the restless Nahara, “Second Highness, if …

“Seimei-dono…” Suddenly, the Daimyo’s figure appeared not far away. Uchiha Tonan could instantly sense several pairs of eyes watching him from the shadows. When Naraku saw his father, there was hope in his eyes, and he cried out, “Father, save me.” Tonan put the candle on the ground and walked towards the Daimyo. “Your Majesty, may we speak somewhere else?” …

Early the next morning, Uchiha Tonan changed into Abe Seimei’s appearance and came to the Daimyo Residence. Looking at the magnificent surroundings, Tonan put his hands on his back and walked in slowly. “Seimei-sama, please come with me.” The guards outside the Daimyo Residence were notified about his arrival earlier and led him to the study hall. Naraku and Nahara …

After a long time, the Land of Fire Daimyo seemed to have made up his mind and said in a sincere tone, “In that case, I earnestly request Seimei-dono to teach my children. Naraku is my successor.
