Chapter 109: Prince Treatment, Encountering Team Nine

“How can anyone say this about themselves? Tonan, why are you so honest?” Sarutobi Hiruzen was relieved to hear where the money came from.

He asked Tonan, “Did you plan to build a welfare institution from the very beginning? I remember the day when you had come to report your Fire Capital mission, you said you had adopted many orphans.”

Tonan nodded, “The first dark organization I wiped out was the human trafficking organization. Life has been very tough for those children. No one in the Fire Capital cared about them. I had no money then either, and I feared I wouldn’t be able to support them, so I embezzled the money from that organization.”

“Later, I thought about it and simply embezzled all the money from other underground organizations. I thought the best plan was to build a welfare institution in Konoha and let all the orphans and elder people live there.”

Tonan’s face seemed to emit a light of justice as he narrated his thoughts. Hiruzen leaned on the door frame and blew out more smoke, “I can procure the land needed for the institution in the village’s name. To build the different facilities, about 200 million Ryo is enough. Keep the remaining money for yourself.”

However, Tonan looked up and said with a stubborn look, “Sensei, please use the money to buy the land. After all, this money doesn’t originate in the right way. It’s black money. Using it to do a good deed is better. Moreover, if you acquire the land in the village’s name, then I’m worried you’ll have to take care of many people. Using this money could avoid any future troubles. And it would also be a kind of guarantee for those orphans and elderly people.”

Hiruzen blew out a mouthful of smoke. He never thought Tonan was so generous. He liked him even more now. “If you truly want to spend it to buy the land, then you might not have anything left. Are you sure?”

Tonan said looking righteous, “Money is worldly possession, talent is priceless. Even if all 600 million Ryo is spent, I can earn more later.”

Hiruzen nodded with a smile, “Alright, what did you have in mind for the location and the size of the welfare institution?”

Tonan thought for a while and replied, “Any place with people bustling around is fine. If the place is too remote, I worry they’ll be isolated. As for the size, the bigger the better. If the money is not enough, I will think of a way to earn more.”

The land in the golden district would have room for appreciation. Not knowing the result was gambling, but foreseeing it was an investment. Now, he would use the black money to build a welfare institution.

Later, in the future, after he had power, he would sell the welfare institution and start another one in the village’s name. The money would then be laundered and the people would be whitewashed. The move was very comprehensive.

Hiruzen thought for a while, “Alright, I’ll start doing it tomorrow. I believe it will be done in a month at the most.”

Tonan’s eyes were full of gratitude. He bowed deeply to Hiruzen, “Thank you, sensei…”

Hiruzen waved his hand and said, “It’s a good thing, don’t worry. When the opportunity is right, I’ll increase the funding. At that time, you can allocate the budget to raise the orphans and elderly people as you please.”

Sure enough, holding on to Hiruzen made things convenient. As the quasi-prince of Konoha, as long as he was righteous, he could do whatever he pleased.

……

After training for two hours in Hiruzen’s house, Tonan was returning to the Uchiha district. While passing through the commercial street, he happened to meet Namikaze Minato and the new Team Nine. Minato was walking in the front, and Kakashi, Obito, and Rin were following behind.

Tonan’s eyes narrowed slightly. Hiruzen wanted to bring Kakashi out of the darkness, so he specially arranged for Obito and Rin to be under Minato’s tutelage. Minato was the first to greet, “Tonan, long time no see.”

Tonan bowed, “Minato-sensei, long time no see.”

At this time, Obito shouted, “Tonan, why did you kill Kakashi’s father?”

“Shut up.” Kakashi gave a stern look to Obito. He then walked towards Tonan, step by step, and said, “Hatake-style will not lose.”

Tonan took a deep breath and coldly said, “Will your empty words fight for you?”

Kakashi’s pupils shrank. Clang.

Before anyone could react, Tonan had already pulled out the White Fang Blade from Kakashi’s back and placed it on his neck. Tonan’s bloodthirsty look made Obito and Rin panic.

“Kakashi!”

“Let go of Kakashi… Minato Sensei, release me.”

“What amazing speed!” Minato sighed in his heart, grabbing Obito’s collar from the back.

Tonan moved his head in front of Kakashi, and like an evil villain, he said, “Those who have lost their rationality will train desperately and blindly. They would comfort themselves that physical exhaustion meant they were working hard. But that is nothing more than the weak’s reason to slack. The real hard effort needs the use of the brain. Reflect on your deficiencies and rectify them. This is the real effort.”

Tonan’s eyes were ruthless and cold, and they gradually became scarlet… Hell Viewing Technique!

Kakashi suddenly noticed it was already daytime and he was in the Hatake household’s backyard. He knew this was an illusion but he was slightly hesitant to break the genjutsu. After all, forcibly breaking the genjutsu would cause damage to the genjutsu caster.

Puff~ The sound of a sharp blade piercing through a body could be heard. Kakashi turned around and saw that Tonan, holding a tanto, had ruthlessly pierced through Hatake Sakumo’s heart.

“Father…” Kakashi roared angrily and rushed over. He hugged Sakumo’s corpse.

“Hatake style is just so-so,” Tonan, who held a bloody chakra tanto, indifferently looked at the wailing Kakashi and said, “Kakashi, it’s your turn to go on your way now.”

He then kicked the White Fang Blade in front of Kakashi. “The best way to overcome fear is to face it. Look at you now, you don’t even dare to pick up the sword.”

Tonan looked down at the kneeling Kakashi and taunted him. Kakashi looked over, his eyes filled with hatred. He slowly put down Sakumo’s corpse and grabbed the White Fang Blade, swinging it towards Tonan.

“Damn it… I’ll kill you.”

Ding, ding.

Puff~

A chakra tanto stabbed Kakashi’s heart with ease. Tonan shook his head and said with a wicked smile, “You are boring me, Kakashi.”

Everything in front of Kakashi went dark. When the light returned, he found himself standing in the courtyard again.

Another familiar scene!

Kakashi immediately turned his head.

Puchi~

A sharp blade pierced through Sakumo’s heart again.
