Long Live The Hokage - L.L.H: Chapter 229: Kill Me Now
Early June.
All eyes inside Konoha were focused on the Senju Clan.
Masahiko didn’t know how Tsunade was so sure, but she said that Mikoto will deliver the baby on June 4th, and the news spread out.
Therefore, on June 3rd, Uchiha Kagami actually took with him the three elders of the Uchiha clan, and headed toward the Senju Clan and became neighbors with Masahiko.
Masahiko felt very speechless.
“Why did you come here? Are you afraid the Senju will abandon Mikoto after birth? Or do you think they will hide the child?” Masahiko thought to himself as he watched the Uchiha clansmen in front of him.
Uchiha Kagami smiled bitterly. He actually didn’t want to come, but…
“Mikoto’s child will definitely inherit our Dojutsu. If the Senju didn’t treat him well, don’t blame for taking him back!”
This was the great elder of the Uchiha Clan talking. He’s Mikoto’s grandfather.
Masahiko sighed, “Yes, yes, this is gonna be the story of a hero. He will be raised by the Senju Clan and enjoy life for a few years, especially with his strong Chakra. After that, he will awake his Sharingan, Mongekyou Sharingan, and the Eternal in the same month. After that, the Senju will start to hate him, as they usually do, those bastards. At that very moment, the Uchiha will feel sick of their behavior, and they will take him in and give him the love he needs. Then he will carry forward with the Uchiha’s glorious traditions, and lead the clan to prosperity!”
“Elder Masahiko, you… cough cough!” On the opposite side, the elder coughed violently.
“Oww, you feel sick? Then you should talk less.”
The great elder of the Uchiha Clan almost died of anger…
Of course, it wasn’t only him, and these four, Mito and Kenji were also here. But with Masahiko here, they didn’t feel they had to speak at all, and they were actually laughing.
After a long while, the Uchiha elder calmed down under the other three’s comfort and was ready to talk again.
But Masahiko interrupted, “What did I just say to you? Just don’t! Kagami, what do you need?”
Kagami shook his head, “Nothing. I’m just here to see the birth of the child. I don’t care about other things.”
Masahiko smiled. He estimated that Kagami wouldn’t dare thinking about such a thing.
“What’s the use of you being so anxious? When the child is born, he wouldn’t have Sharingan eyes or a special Chakra. He will just be a baby.”
In fact, you can have a general idea if you look at a newly born baby, but you won’t be able to fully evaluate his talent until he officially starts practicing Ninjutsu at the age of four or five years old.
With these words being spoken, Uchiha Kagami sighed again. Being a Patriarch of the Uchiha Clan was always a very demanding job.
The great elder of the Uchiha calmed a bit but still kept the tough standards, “Elder Masahiko, we’ve fulfilled the conditions you mentioned initially. The Senju will also have to keep their side of the deal in the future. You can’t be partial.”
Masahiko was puzzled, “What conditions did I mention?”
On the opposite side, the old man replied embarrassedly, “My granddaughter Fikoto was married to Fugaku!”
Masahiko was stunned for a long time, then he remembered that something like that really happened, and he suggested it. He never expected these people to take it seriously, even though he still feels that Fikoto is closer to Fugaku than Mikoto…
“These conditions of the Senju and yours… well, it has nothing to do with the first child. If there’s a second child, we talk about it.” Masahiko wasn’t very confident that would actually happen…
The old man on the opposite side was still dissatisfied, “This first child, if he awakens his Sharingan, then that means that half of him belong to us, the Uchiha.
Masahiko felt speechless, “Ohhhhhh, how about this? Why don’t I just cut him for you? Do you want me to put in a bag?”
The old man got so angry to the point that the other three on his side had to calm him down. He seemed very close to having a heart attack, which made Masahiko feel a bit helpless.
“This child hasn’t been born yet. Let’s not talk about this for now. How is Fugaku, though?” Masahiko somewhat became a bit concerned about him.
“Fugaku is okay,” Kagami replied, “Fikoto also got pregnant not long time ago.”
Masahiko was taken aback, then sighed, “Then I will start counting the days while hoping that this so-called world autocorrect will give him the force of life.”
(T/N: I don’t think it’s called that Masahiko xD)
At this moment, someone from the Senju Clan suddenly knocked on the door.
“The Third Hokage-Sama is here.” The clansman said.
“Heh, so even Hiruzen is concerned about this.” Masahiko smiled, sensing others who came with him.
“Elder Masahiko, Mito-Sama.” Many people came first, greeted him, and Mito then found a place to sit down.
In addition to Hiruzen, there were several other disciples at the door, as well as the Hyuga Patriarch.
“It’s quite surprising that you’re here to see the birth of Nawaki’s child,” Masahiko said with a smile.
Hiruzen smiled bitterly, “Of course, everyone in Konoha is talking about this. I had to come.”
Masahiko didn’t embarrass him. Looking at how many people he brought with him, it was clear that Hiruzen was gonna take this opportunity to talk with the Senju and the Uchiha. In short, it was estimated that wars in the Shinobi World will break again soon, and he was hoping to maintain the stability of the village.
In addition, Hiruzen has also promised that as long as the wars are over, he will personally propose the election for the next Hokage.
As a result, the Senju and the Uchiha’s clansmen looked at each other.
“Sarutobi-Sama,” Kagami said helplessly, “Who said that we would join forces with the Senju to seize the position of the Hokage?”
Hiruzen was startled; the whole village says so…
Danzo still replied, “We know that you won’t, but we are worried that someone will stir up troubles, so we’re taking precautions in advance.”
……….
Masahiko kept spacing out during all of that wrangling, ignoring them, while Mito looked full of sorrow.
After finally sending away the “Konoha Tactic Team” in the evening, the Senju and the Uchiha’s clansmen all smiled bitterly at each other with tacit understanding.
Masahiko smiled and returned to his room, waiting for the next day.
On the bed, Masahiko tossed and turned for a long time.
“It will be tomorrow, that if Tsunade is right… Ritian, or… wait, is it a boy or a girl? Will the child be okay?” He didn’t know why, but Masahiko always felt that something wrong was going to happen.
“No, behave, Neko.” He couldn’t sleep, yet the little kitten was arching above him…
It wasn’t until twelve o’clock that Masahiko gradually started to fall asleep and suddenly heard noises outside.
“Grandpa, Mikoto is about to give birth!” Kenji’s voice came from outside.
“I see!” Masahiko stood up, muttering, “Damn it, Tsunade, you’re a bit too accurate…”
The Senju station got all lively. Because Tsunade took good care of Mikoto, Mikoto didn’t have to go to the hospital.
Outside, everyone waited.
It wasn’t until half an hour later that they heard the baby’s cries emitting in the house, and these loud screams made Masahiko’s heart finally relief.
Sure enough, after a while, Tsunade came out with the baby, claiming that it was a boy, while Nawaki watched closely.
“Optimus Prime came in handy!” Masahiko sighed, but instead of looking at the baby, he pulled Nawaki aside.
“So, what’s gonna be Ritian or Tianzhu?”
Nawaki was taken aback and smiled slyly, “Sorry, Great Grandpa, Mikoto didn’t agree. She said she already has a name for him.”
Masahiko stared coldly, “This Great-Grandson’s wife…”
“So, what’s her name?”
“Itachi, Senju Itachi.”
“Ahaha… Ahahahaha!” Masahiko suddenly wanted to die.
