Konoha: Offer your heart to the Hokage!

It's too cruel to let a teacher kill his own student.

"Hokage, this is against the rules."

“Matsumoto Waka’s intentions were not bad, and she surrendered to the Anbu immediately after the incident.”

Their positions subtly reversed at that moment.

Hashirama, the creator of the village rules, defended the person who broke them, saying, "She just wanted to be a mother. If even such a small wish cannot be allowed... then my Will of Fire has no meaning."

"Forgive her this time."

Shen Er fell silent.

It was as if Hashirama's words had touched the softest spot in his heart.

After a long silence, he released his grip and sighed, "This is the first and the last time."

“Matsumoto Waka, from this day forward, you are no longer my disciple. You have embezzled public funds, and the Gospel Hospital cannot tolerate you. Your position in the Medical Research Department is no longer relevant to you.”

"Yes, teacher!"

"I am no longer your teacher."

He turned away with his hands behind his back, unwilling to look at her any longer.

"call……"

Hashirama Senju breathed a sigh of relief. Being able to stop this tragedy of master and disciple killing each other was a good deed for him.

He had never seen Shen Er so angry, and he had never seen Shen Er personally suggest "killing someone."

It's so good that they kept their vow of righteousness.

A doctor's hands should be used to save lives; as for killing, that's enough for ninjas like myself.

Hashirama looked at Matsumoto Kazuka.

He may be spared the death penalty, but he cannot escape punishment.

Although he spared her the death penalty, he would never leave behind those forbidden research materials.

"Matsumoto Waka, I will destroy all the research data here. For the next year, you will be under the surveillance of the Anbu. As for Orochimaru, he is your child; you can take him back and raise him."

"Everything that happens here will be sealed in the archives and no one is allowed to disclose it."

These last words were specifically spoken to the ANBU members beside him.

Hashirama Senju was a kind man. Since he had decided to keep the child, he wanted to give him a stable environment to grow up in.

If news of "artificial humans" and "forbidden experiments" leaks out, the child will likely be viewed differently by the villagers, and may even face ostracism. This is understandable; it's only natural...

Ultimately, the child is innocent.

This was Hashirama's most genuine thought as he first became a ruler.

As long as he poses no harm to Konoha, let's give him a normal childhood and a normal environment to grow up in.

Matsumoto Waka was quickly taken home by the Anbu.

Hashirama said, "Now that I'm about to start, do you see if there's any usable experimental equipment around?"

He then looked around and noticed that all the containers holding the blood samples had been damaged.

"That's all, you can do it now."

"it is good."

Hashirama nodded, clapped his hands, and vines burst forth from the ground, instantly devouring and disintegrating all traces of the second underground level. Once the vines had all retreated back underground, everything on the second underground level had vanished completely.

It was as if nothing had ever happened here.

Looking at the empty underground space, Hashirama comforted him, "Take it easy, Shen'er, this isn't your fault."

"No matter what, I, as a teacher, bear joint responsibility when my students make mistakes."

She sighed softly, then turned and left.

But the moment he turned around, the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up slightly.

Orochimaru was born as scheduled, that's wonderful.

The weight that had been pressing on Shinji's heart was finally lifted thanks to Matsumoto Kaori's efforts.

In return, after leaving the Gospel Hospital, Shen went to the shopping street, bought some baby supplies, and instructed the ANBU ninja guarding the door to deliver them inside.

According to regulations, this is not in compliance with the rules.

But the person who delivered the gift was Shen Er.

The ninja had long been tamed by Shen'er, and he felt only respect and trust in him. Without the slightest hesitation, he delivered the items as instructed.

Only after doing all this can the matter be considered settled.

His current image is that of a typical "tough lover" teacher. He verbally threatens to punish students who break the rules, but when it comes to actually doing it, he still softens and leaves room for them.

For a long time afterward, he wouldn't need to see Matsumoto Kaori again.

She would fill in the whole story in her mind, and eventually she would be moved to tears...

...

Matsumoto and Kaori won the bet.

Hashirama was a merciful Hokage who spared her and Orochimaru's lives; the teacher was also a soft-hearted teacher who never truly wanted to kill her, even though she violated taboos and brought shame upon him.

Matsumoto and Kaori could clearly sense all of this.

Just now at the Gospel Hospital, the teacher's angry demeanor, demanding that she atone with her death, was actually an act for the Hokage's benefit. The purpose was to make the Hokage feel compassion so that she could live.

Even the usually upright teacher revealed such a "cunning" side for her sake.

"teacher……"

Just then, the ANBU members delivered the items to Matsumoto Kaori's room and said, "These are what Lord Shinji asked me to bring to you. You... keep them safe."

When Matsumoto Kazuka saw that the delivered items were baby supplies, tears instantly streamed down her face uncontrollably.

Tick-tock...tick-tock...

Just as she had thought, the teacher, though seemingly strict, had always been concerned about her. The teacher's angry demeanor at the hospital was both to uphold the rules and to protect her.

How could she not be moved, how could she not cry, by this extreme tenderness hidden behind the strictness?

Matsumoto Waka knelt down with a "thud" and bowed deeply in the direction of the Zen-in clan:

"I'm sorry, teacher, I've brought shame upon you."

"Yeah ah!"

Inside the cradle, Orochimaru waved his little hands and babbled, as if wondering why his mother was doing this.

Matsumoto Waka slowly straightened up, walked to the cradle, stroked the baby's face, and whispered her instructions:

"Orochimaru, when you grow up, you must strive to become an excellent ninja and serve your teacher!"

Chapter 89 Human dreams never end

A month has passed since the birth of the Leaf Demon Child and the Spirit Orb.

When the Uchiha clan was on a mission to carry out the Hell Valley Clan's mission.

Within the Uchiha clan.

Uchiha Chiri's gaze swept over everyone, and he announced in a deep voice: "The Hell Valley mission in the Land of Lightning will be led by Uchiha Bin, with Uchiha Kagami as the team member..."

"Let's set off immediately."

Shen Er, who was watching from the sidelines, did not expect that Uchiha Kagami would also be included in this operation.

The team consists of seven people, all of whom are current and future elites of the Uchiha clan who participated in the Hell Valley operation.

The combat force is quite impressive: Uchiha Bin is a veteran Jonin, Uchiha Kagami is a newly promoted genius Jonin, and he is gaining experience through this mission; the rest of the members are mostly talented Chunin from the Uchiha clan.

With such strength, they would be no less capable than even a single squad of the Anbu.

In this situation, it would be inevitable to abduct Uchiha Bin and activate Susanoo.

"set off!"

At Uchiha Bin's command, the seven people vanished from their spot in an instant.

Although Uchiha ninjas are arrogant, they are known for their efficiency in carrying out missions, making them highly sought after by employers from all walks of life.

After everyone left, Shen Er smiled and bid farewell to Uchiha Chiri, then returned to the meditation room.

Immediately afterward, a message was sent to Uchiha Yan, who was far away in the Land of Fields, informing him of Uchiha Bin's departure from the village.

An ambush targeting Uchiha Bin has begun.

...

After the establishment of the one-country-one-village system, ninjas were concentrated in ninja villages.

To facilitate orders from people all over the country to Konoha, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire funded road repairs. The main roads connecting Konoha are arguably the smoothest in the ninja world.

This facilitated both the employer's entry and exit, and the ninjas' movements.

As a senior member of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Bin recounted stories of the Warring States period to the younger generation of Uchiha, a time when transportation from the clan's territory to Hell Valley was far more difficult than it is now...

Therefore, we should cherish the life we ​​have now.

Uchiha Bin, who has come to terms with reality during Izanami, is indeed different from before.

Uchiha Kagami listened attentively; this was his first time leaving the village to carry out a mission of this level.

After the group entered the Land of Lightning, the environment changed drastically.

The trees gradually thinned out, and all that could be seen were towering, continuous mountain peaks; there were practically no smooth roads.

The group expended a great deal of energy traversing mountains and valleys.

Until the dark and windy night of the following day.

A slender figure suddenly appeared at the end of the line of sight.

The man was dressed in a black uniform with auspicious clouds on it and wore a tiger skin mask. Just by standing there, he gave people a great sense of oppression.
