Shimura Compound.
"Renya-san, something terrible has happened!"
Boruto rushed into the courtyard with an anxious expression.
At this moment, Renya and Danzō were enjoying the desserts brought by Izuna.
Uchiha Izuna rarely argued with Senju Tobirama today, and instead brought desserts bought with his older brother to share with Renya.
"Renya-kun, who is this kid?"
He had been in the village for several years, and this was the first time he had seen Boruto.
In his impression, aside from being with Danzō, Renya-kun didn't seem to have any other acquaintances.
Especially not a child.
"Minato's grandson," Renya explained, then looked at Boruto. "What happened?"
Uchiha Izuna: "???"
Minato, Namikaze Minato's grandson?!
That little blond kid already has a grandson?!
Isn't he just at the age of graduating from the ninja academy?
He vaguely remembered that kid—it seemed he was Renya-kun's grand-disciple.
"Sasuke-san found Ōtsutsuki Urashiki and asked me to come find you for help!"
Boruto quickly explained the whole situation.
"What?" Renya showed a surprised expression. "Sasuke actually found Urashiki?!"
He had only intended to send Sasuke away, but never expected him to really find Urashiki.
The ninja world was so vast—how easy could it be to find someone?
Originally, he just wanted him to waste a few days outside, buying time until Fugaku returned to the village.
But now Urashiki had actually been found.
If he had known Urashiki was that easy to find, he would have taken Madara-sama along.
Forget it, now he could only go personally.
"Danzō, Izuna, stay at home. I'll be back soon."
After greeting the two, Renya hurried away with Boruto.
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki's abilities were special. That useless middle-aged Sasuke might really not be able to handle him.
If he didn't hurry, something dangerous might happen!
Just as the two reached the village entrance, they saw Fugaku and his team returning.
The two Uchiha members lowered their heads when they saw Renya, pretending not to notice him.
They couldn't afford to offend this guy...
Only Uchiha Fugaku, due to his father, nodded slightly at Renya as a greeting.
They were just about to enter the village when Renya called out to them.
"Wait, leave the person you're carrying."
The three stopped and looked at Renya in confusion.
"He's my friend. I was just about to bring him back."
Renya explained to the three.
Boruto quickly added, "He's my uncle, Uchiha Sasuke. He fought the enemy earlier and asked me to come to the village to find Renya-san for help."
"Uchiha… Sasuke."
The three exchanged glances and remained silent.
After a moment, as the team leader, Uchiha Fugaku spoke first,
"Since he is Renya-sama's friend, we'll leave him in your care."
With the leader's order, the Uchiha carrying Sasuke handed him over to Renya.
"Let's go."
Just as the three were about to leave, Renya called out again.
"Fugaku, Retsufū has returned. He's waiting for you at home."
Uchiha Fugaku: "!!!"
He suddenly turned around, his face full of excitement.
"Renya-sama, is what you said true?!"
His father, who had suddenly disappeared three years ago, had really come back?
Anyone else might have thought he died outside.
Fugaku had even suspected that his father's disappearance was related to Uchiha Kagami.
The reason was simple—after Uchiha Kagami became clan leader, it would be natural to eliminate the previous leader's descendants.
To prevent Retsufū from launching a coup to seize the position.
Though it sounded absurd, after losing his father, Fugaku really had such thoughts.
If it wasn't Uchiha Kagami, then it must be the Fourth Hokage, or Danzō and Renya!
Anyway, it couldn't be that he just disappeared without leaving a single word.
All these years, he had trained desperately, waiting until he was strong enough to uncover the truth behind his father's disappearance!
But now, his missing father had returned!
"Captain, it's great that your father is back!"
"Hurry and go take a look!"
The two Uchiha members smiled sincerely.
They were genuinely happy for Fugaku.
Ever since Retsufū disappeared, he had become silent and withdrawn, always wearing a stern face, suspecting everyone of being his father's killer.
They feared that if this continued, Fugaku would develop serious psychological issues.
Now that Uchiha Retsufū had returned, their worries were gone.
"Fugaku, come visit me when you have time."
Renya suddenly said to him.
He still hoped Fugaku would come over to help keep things in check.
Otherwise, Uchiha Sasuke would definitely come looking for trouble…
Although he was confident in defeating that useless middle-aged Sasuke, he was already tired of fighting and didn't like trouble.
With that time, wouldn't it be better to lie in the courtyard, bask in the sun, and eat delicious desserts?
Uchiha Fugaku clearly didn't expect Renya to say that and thought it was just polite words because of his father.
"I'll bring my father to visit you when I have time."
With that, he hurried back to the clan grounds, while the two team members went to the Hokage's office to report the mission.
"Bringing Retsufū along works too."
Renya muttered softly as he looked at the unconscious Sasuke.
"You wouldn't attack me in front of your father and grandfather, right?"
Boruto: "…"
Now he finally understood why, even after so many years, Sasuke-san still couldn't forget about him.
Such dirty tricks could actually be used.
He couldn't imagine what Sasuke-san had gone through back then.
"What are you standing there for? Take him to the hospital. Use my name—it's free."
Renya tossed the unconscious Sasuke to Boruto.
How could he have time to go to the hospital and take care of the injured?
There were still desserts Izuna brought that he hadn't finished.
Who knows if those two left any for him?
Thinking this, he walked back on his own.
Leaving Boruto standing there in the wind, carrying the unconscious Sasuke in confusion.
"Konoha is so big—how am I supposed to find the hospital?!"
Just as he was getting anxious, he saw someone cursing as they walked out of a casino.
Boruto's eyes lit up when he saw her.
"Damn it, my luck was terrible today. I lost all my money again."
"Looks like I'll have to go ask Grandpa and Renya-san for some living expenses."
She believed she only lost because of bad luck—once she had capital, she could definitely win it back!
"Tsunade-san!"
Tsunade saw a blond kid carrying an unconscious person approaching her.
Although she was unhappy with how Boruto addressed her, she still patiently asked,
"Kid, what do you want?"
"Can you help treat Sasuke-san?"
"My fee is very expensive!"
"How much?"
"At least one hundred thousand ryō!"
"That expensive… forget it, I'll just listen to Renya-san and go to the hospital…"
"Wait, you know Renya-san?!"
"Yeah, he told me to take him to the hospital and said using his name makes it free."
"Why go to the hospital? I'll treat him! Go back and tell Renya-san my fee is three million!"
Boruto: "???"
Without giving Boruto a chance to refuse, Tsunade directly used medical ninjutsu to heal him.
Wasn't it supposed to be one hundred thousand ryō?
How did it become three million…
