Master, please become the Hokage

Otherwise, who knows which medical ninja will come to rescue him.

"Godfather?" Hearing this title, Minato Namikaze and Kushina looked at each other and saw confusion in their eyes.

"Yes, Minato, Uzumaki Kushina, I have already adopted Itachi as my adopted son..."

Sarutobi Ryo also stood up and spoke to the two of them.

"Perhaps... that's why, feeling that she had fulfilled her mission, Lady Mikoto chose to follow Mr. Fugaku..."

Sarutobi Ryo said that he had no choice but to do his duty.

Let Mrs. Mikoto feel that she has fulfilled her mission and can follow her late husband...

"I don't blame you for that."

Kushina's surprise turned to joy when she learned that her best friend's child had been settled.

After all, it's a good thing that the child has someone to look after.

It's just... a little sudden.

"Well, I just decided it this afternoon..." Sarutobi Ryo said that it happened just as the matter was decided.

"I see."

Kushina said, looking towards Lin.

Asked if I could go in and investigate?

Nohara Lin shook her head and said that although she was out of danger for the time being, she would still need a second course of treatment in a while to continue expelling the toxins.

You will probably have to stay in the hospital for treatment until you fully recover.

"Then I'll trouble you, Lin."

Kushina nodded, thankful for that.

She stood outside the ward, chatted with Itachi for a while, and then chose to leave with Minato Namikaze.

She said she would come to visit again tomorrow.

Sarutobi Ryo sent away Minato Namikaze and Kushina, then looked at Itachi: "Itachi, it's getting late, you should go back and rest first..."

By this time, it was already dark.

As a child, Itachi can easily fall asleep when he is naturally tired due to physiological reasons.

So Sarutobi Ryo said that he would help look after the baby here and let Itachi go back first.

The sensible Itachi stood up and said goodbye to his adoptive father respectfully.

Watching his receding back, Sarutobi Ryo just stayed outside the ward.

Until... late at night.

Sarutobi stood up and slowly opened the door of the ward...

Chapter 105. Infusing Mikoto with the Will of Fire

White light illuminated the ward.

Uchiha Mikoto lay quietly on the hospital bed.

Her brows were slightly furrowed and her face was pale.

But this did not affect her voice or appearance, instead she looked sickly.

As the wife of Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Mikoto followed her deceased husband, which seemed to be no big deal.

In fact, the problem is huge.

Itachi was still young, and she was going to abandon the child and leave alone.

Just like in the original novel, she let go and followed her husband to the underworld, leaving her two children to suffer in the world.

For Uchiha Mikoto, her husband comes first.

From a man's point of view, having a wife like this...what more could a man ask for?

However, she is not only Uchiha Fugaku's wife, but also Itachi's mother.

It is really wrong to want to escape without fulfilling your responsibilities as a mother.

Sarutobi Ryo just stared at the sleeping Uchiha Mikoto.

The heartbeat signal displayed on the hospital instrument was weak... but steady.

Just then, Nohara Lin pushed the door open and walked in.

"Master Liang..."

Seeing Ryo Sarutobi visiting her in the hospital room, she thought it was normal.

After all, Sarutobi Ryo rushed over as soon as he heard the news.

Nohara Lin was a little surprised when she suddenly heard that Master Liang was going to be Itachi's adoptive father.

Thinking of the political issues among the top leaders, she couldn't help but feel relieved.

So, Itachi's adoptive father is concerned about Itachi's biological mother, so there's absolutely no problem with that, right?

"Master Liang, I'm on duty tonight, don't worry."

Nohara Lin is wearing a nurse's uniform, which highlights her budding figure.

Sarutobi Ryo glanced at her, looking her up and down.

The appearance of the angel in white is very attractive... and heart-warming.

Such a pure appearance will appear more attractive when dyed with certain colors.

Sarutobi Ryo couldn't help but recall what happened that day.

Nohara Rin stood at the door, being looked at by Sarutobi Ryo.

Soon, her expression became unnatural, perhaps she had thought of something.

"Lin, I have something to teach you..."

Sarutobi Ryo suddenly said.

The Yin Sealing technique was taught to Nohara Rin, which is the so-called teaching in accordance with the aptitude of the student.

She has the talent.

And...the Yin Seal also has the ability to preserve eternal youth, allowing her to maintain this petite and lovely appearance.

Learning the Yin Seal can also prevent subsequent problems.

If you get stabbed, you can regenerate and heal quickly.

In this way, Obito won't go crazy.

Sarutobi Ryo has been studying with Tsunade for some time and has successfully condensed the Yin Seal.

The location that each person can choose is different.

Sarutobi Ryo chose to place the Yin Seal on the heart.

Because the Eight Gates Ninjutsu actually puts the greatest strain on the heart.

So to a certain extent, this can alleviate the burden that the eight gates bring to the internal organs.

"Okay, okay..."

Nohara Rin closed the door and locked it at Sarutobi Ryo's signal.

She walked over slowly and Sarutobi put his hand on her shoulder.

At first, Nohara Lin was a little confused, but soon, she slowly knelt down.

Of course, one must be respectful when learning knowledge.

Accompanied by the rustling sound of robes.

After tidying up his appearance, Sarutobi Ryo began to teach Nohara Rin using the Sarutobi clan's summoning weapon as a medium.

Nohara Lin: “Woo~!”

I saw Sarutobi Ryo explaining and teaching with great effort.

It took a while before the knowledge of the Yin Seal was imparted.

"Cough cough cough..."

After finishing her lesson, Nohara Lin covered her mouth and coughed a few times.

Her face flushed with excitement after learning new knowledge.

"Alright, Lin, go and practice Yin Seal, and leave this to me..."

Sarutobi Ryo said that he would take care of Uchiha Mikoto tonight.

Nohara Lin nodded in agreement, and her eyes unconsciously glanced at Sarutobi Ryo a few times before turning and leaving.

Click.

Wait until the door is closed behind you.

Sarutobi Ryo turned his head and looked at Uchiha Mikoto lying on the hospital bed.

......

The night is getting darker.

The hospital went from being bustling with people to being deserted.

After dinner and visiting the patients, most of the residents and ninjas left the hospital.

Even the nurses and medical ninjas were off duty.

The huge Konoha Hospital became empty.

Sarutobi Ryo sat on the bench in the corridor outside the door, his face as gloomy as water.

The staff on duty who occasionally passed by just thought that Sarutobi Ryo was on guard.

The fact that Itachi became Sarutobi Ryo's adopted son will not be announced until tomorrow.

So... the nurses and medical ninjas on duty couldn't help but have some guesses.

But tomorrow, everything will be known.

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

The clock on the wall keeps running.

Finally, it was 9 o'clock in the evening.

It is also a time when everything is silent.

There were almost no pedestrians on the street outside.

The curfew for most ethnic groups and civilians is at this time.

Sarutobi Ryo still sat quietly in the corridor, not saying a word.

However, in reality, the Sarutobi Ryo sitting in the corridor was just a shadow clone.

Sarutobi Ryo's real body was guarding inside the ward at this time.

In the ward.

Slowly, Sarutobi got up, walked towards the entrance, and flipped the switch.

The light clicked off.
