17 Meeting Uchiha Meinai

Uchiha Tunan practiced his blade technique for the entire day at the Hatake Clan's residence and walked back home, exhausted.

Just as he reached the outside of the Uchiha Clan's territory, he saw Naoto Umino standing on the road that he had to pass through. He was looking forward to it.

"Tunan." Naoto Umino waved his hand at Uchiha Tunan.

Uchiha Tunan adjusted his glasses and came up to Naoto Umino. He bowed respectfully and said,

"Teacher Umino, are you waiting for me here?"

Naoto Umino stuffed a thick envelope into Uchiha Tunan's hand.

This is the compensation for the death of your parents and the reward for killing the enemy village spies.

During this period of time, the Hokage is busy, and he sent me to pass it to you.

Uchiha Tunan took the envelope and did not look at it. He bowed to Naoto Umino and said, "I asked you to make a special trip for me. Sorry to trouble you, Mr. Umino."

Naoto Umino scratched his head and revealed a gentle smile, "It's a small matter. It's not a problem."

On the other hand, you were able to kill a Chuunin spy by yourself, how amazing.

"Not worth mentioning." Uchiha Tunan shook his head with a faint smile.

The more Naoto Umino looked at Uchiha Tunan, the more pleasing he became. He said with concern,

"Look at your tired face. Did you just come back from cultivation?"

Uchiha Tunan nodded and said, "Yes, I was lucky enough to get some guidance from Sakumo-san."

Konoha's White Fang, it seems that Tunan's talent is higher than I thought, and he can piqued the interest of White Fang.

Thinking of this, Naoto Umino said with concern,

"You can work hard, but you have to pay attention to rest. I won't delay your rest time."

See you at school tomorrow.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Umino. Goodbye."

Naoto Umino turned around and left. After walking for half a street, he looked back and saw that Uchiha Tunan was still standing there and watching him.

He could not help but feel a little touched.

I didn't expect that I could teach a student who is so outstanding in both talent and character.

"Go back." Naoto Umino shouted from afar.

Uchiha Tunan didn't reply and only responded with a gentle smile.

After Naoto Umino's figure disappeared, he turned around and walked into the clan grounds.

The Uchiha guards patrolling around the clan grounds saw Uchiha Tunan and nodded in goodwill.

Uchiha Tunan replied with a gentle smile.

No matter which world it was, it was always like this.

Just as he returned home, Uchiha Tunan saw the Great Elder standing at the entrance of his courtyard.

It was obvious that he had been waiting for a long time.

"Tunan, you are back." First Elder greeted Uchiha Tunan first.

Uchiha Tunan put his hands on his knees and bowed. He said calmly, "Greetings, First Elder."

The Great Elder smiled and waved his hand. He stuffed the thick envelope into Uchiha Tunan's hand and said,

"We are a family. There is no need to be so polite."

"This time, I came here specifically to give you the pension for your parents' deaths and your living expenses for this month. "

Uchiha Tunan secretly pinched the envelope with his fingers.

This thickness was much more generous than the Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Then with a puzzled expression, he asked, "Didn't the Hokage-sama already give out pension?"

The Great Elder looked at Uchiha Tunan and said,

"Hokage Sama represents the village, and our Uchiha clan naturally treats people of the same clan as him."

"Now that you have become an orphan, you can receive the corresponding living expenses every month."

If you have any difficulties, feel free to come to me, or find the chief.

"We will do our best to help you."

After he finished speaking, he patted Uchiha Tunan on the shoulder, and without any extra explanation or movements, he directly turned around and left.

The Great Elder's move was truly brilliant.

It was fine to deal with others, but to deal with Uchiha Tunan who was well-versed in the ways of the world, he was a bit too inexperienced.

This was where the technique of giving gifts was.

The goodwill has already been delivered, and it will take some time to ferment.

If you stay here and talk about something, others will definitely think that you have other plans.

Uchiha Tunan returned home, took out the money from the two envelopes and put it in the storage cabinet.

It seemed that he had already become a popular person.

The pension that Sarutobi had given him had already exceeded the standard by too much.

Two Chuunin would not even have this much.

The Great Elder was even more willing to pay the capital, directly twice as much as Sarutobi had given him.

Uchiha Tunan guessed that the Great Elder had not planned to give so much before.

It should have been known by the Great Elder when Naoto Umino was outside the Uchiha clan.

Through the thickness of the envelope in Naoto Umino's hand, the Great Elder guessed the general amount of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

So he temporarily added twice.

This was a good thing for Uchiha Tunan.

The Chuunin parents died in battle, and the compensation they received was the same as the death of the two Jounin parents.

With money, I could nurture more White Pigeon Ninja Beasts.

Until the third battle began, he did not have to worry about not having enough money.

The next day, Uchiha Tunan went out as usual and went to the Ninja School.

Before he left the clan grounds, he met his classmate.

Uchiha Meinai.

Uchiha Meinai's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise. She greeted Uchiha Tunan, "Tunan, I didn't expect such a coincidence."

"Yeah, what a coincidence." A gentle smile appeared on Uchiha Tunan's face.

The two of them walked shoulder to shoulder towards the school.

Uchiha Tunan naturally knew that this was not a coincidence.

She had long seen Uchiha Meinai sneaking around at this intersection.

Uchiha Tunan had no intention to expose her.

After all, Uchiha Meinai had a very high chance of becoming his food.

Naturally, he had to be more considerate towards his food.

Speaking of rations, Uchiha Tunan remembered that Uchiha Meinai was not the only one in his class.

If he could not get the approval of Sakumo, he would be in danger.

These rations might play a key role.

Especially Uchiha Meinai.

In his previous life, he had never even heard of this name, so it was basically certain death.

Moreover, it was the Uchiha clan.

If he wanted to think of a way to increase her strength, then...

If he operated it well and was lucky, then perhaps she could awaken the three magatama Sharingan.

To contribute a little to his Mangekyou.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Tunan's eyes lit up and he turned to look at Uchiha Meinai.

Uchiha Meinai looked straight ahead, but in fact, she had been secretly paying attention to Uchiha Tunan.

When she saw Uchiha Tunan looking at her, her little heart could not help but beat wildly.

"Tunan, is there a problem?"

As soon as Uchiha Meinai asked this question, she immediately wanted to give herself a slap in her heart.

How could she ask this? Would Tunan feel embarrassed?

If Tunan had a good impression of me just now and was asked by me like this, would he not like me?

"I feel that you are different from the other clansmen." Uchiha Tunan, this kind of old coin, was much more thick-skinned than ordinary people. Of course, he would not feel embarrassed.

"Really? How is it different?" Uchiha Meinai felt sweet in her heart, and her face had a hint of shyness.

"Other than Obito, most of the people I have seen are a little... too proud..."

But you are different, Meinai. I usually think you are lively. I didn't expect you to have such a cute side in private.

Uchiha Tunan said with a gentle smile, as if he was stating a fact, without a trace of flattery.

The two chatted while walking.

They were very much like a young couple in the previous life.
