Inside the grand hall, Kyōsuke sat side by side with the daimyo, their seats placed on equal footing. The young princess, Anzai Eri, respectfully offered him a cup of tea with both hands.

"Sensei Kyosuke, please have some tea."

Kyōsuke smiled as he accepted the cup, then tilted his head back and drank it all in one go. With this simple gesture, he formally accepted the young princess as his disciple.

To solidify their relationship, the daimyo himself had suggested that his daughter take Kyōsuke as her teacher. Seeing no reason to refuse, Kyōsuke agreed.

Such an alliance brought benefits to both sides, and beyond that, Kyōsuke had long considered training and leading a new generation of shinobi.

It was not just him—Tobirama, Hashirama, and even Madara were all going to serve as instructors for the next generation of genin. By setting this example, they made it clear to the entire village:

If even the most powerful among them were willing to take on the responsibility of guiding young shinobi, then no one else had the right to shirk their duty. Anyone who dared refuse would be seen as disrespecting all three of them.

His son was already his disciple, and now, adding Anzai Eri to his tutelage was no trouble at all.

As a princess, she would never have to set foot on the battlefield. His only duty was to grant her the ability to protect herself.

However, Kyōsuke would never allow his disciples to be too weak. At the very least, they could not lose to that little bastard Tobirama.

The original timeline's Third Hokage, as well as Danzo, were both undeniably gifted. If they did not put in the effort now, there was a real possibility that those two brats could surpass them in the early years.

Looking at his son and the princess, both grinning excitedly, Kyōsuke's expression grew stern.

"Prepare yourselves. From this moment forward, your lives will no longer be as carefree as before."

"If you have chosen to be my disciples, then you must be ready to meet my expectations."

"My students will never be allowed to fall behind others."

"Yes, Sensei!" The two children responded in unison, then exchanged another bright, eager smile.

"..."

Kyōsuke smacked his lips. For some reason, he couldn't shake the feeling that he was an unnecessary third wheel in their little world.

Meanwhile, the daimyo sat to the side, his face full of satisfaction, clearly pleased with the scene unfolding before him.

That night, two of the most influential figures in the Land of Fire sat down for an extended discussion.

They spoke of the people's welfare.

They discussed military affairs.

And they deliberated over the best candidate for the position of the First Hokage.

"The title of Hokage can belong to no one else but you, Lord Kyōsuke," the daimyo declared with unwavering certainty, making his stance abundantly clear.

At those words, Kyōsuke no longer hid his ambitions. With calm confidence, he laid out his vision for the future.

In the coming days, the village of Konoha would rely more and more on the daimyo's financial support.

And as that dependence deepened, the daimyo's political influence would inevitably grow as well, even reaching the point where he could influence the selection of the Hokage.

When that time came, Kyōsuke would need the daimyo's full support.

"It's a deal," the daimyo agreed without hesitation. He understood his position well—before the man known as the 'God of Shinobi,' he had no room for bargaining.

Kyōsuke was a man of terrifying means, someone known for his ruthless and cunning ways.

On the surface, they appeared to be enjoying a pleasant evening, almost as if they were family.

But if the daimyo were foolish enough to shift his support to the Senju, he had no doubt that he would soon meet with an 'unexpected' accident.

And when that happened, his daughter would inherit his title—and she, in turn, would remain utterly loyal to her teacher, Kyōsuke.

The daimyo was not yet ready to die. Supporting Kyōsuke in his bid for Hokage was the only logical choice.

There were some things best left unspoken, but both men understood them clearly.

Satisfied with the outcome of their discussion, Kyōsuke returned to his quarters with a smile—only to find a messenger already waiting with new intelligence.

In Konoha, an event had been planned to ignite enthusiasm among the village's shinobi.

The Senju clan leader had proposed a friendly spar against the Hyūga clan leader.

News of the match spread like wildfire, setting the entire village abuzz with excitement. Nearly everyone wanted to witness it firsthand, and Tobirama himself oversaw the construction of a massive arena—

The very same one that would later become the venue for the Chūnin Exams.

When the day arrived, the spectators gathered in overwhelming numbers.

Under the watchful eyes of countless onlookers, Hashirama and Yayoi engaged in a performance battle.

In the end, Yayoi lost by only half a step, but from an outside perspective, she showed no signs of weakness.

No one had expected that Hyūga Yayoi's strength had already risen to a level comparable to the famed Wood Release.

A few sharp-eyed observers understood that Hashirama had deliberately held back, sacrificing a bit of his own reputation to elevate the standing of the Hyūga clan leader.

Of course, Yayoi's strength was undeniable. Once she activated the Tenseigan Chakra Mode, she instantly reached a level of power comparable to that of a super Kage-tier shinobi.

Many began speculating that her current strength might even surpass that of the legendary Hyūga Tenjin.

Only she knew whether that speculation held any truth.

With the exhibition match proving successful, a second high-level meeting was convened that very afternoon.

At that gathering, Hyūga Yayoi was officially granted the title of Konoha Elder, making her the fourth Elder alongside Kyōsuke, Madara, and Hashirama.

Her authority and prestige skyrocketed overnight, elevating her to a level where even clan leaders had to look up to her.

Given her immense strength and the power of the Hyūga clan, her appointment was not surprising.

What puzzled many, however, was that despite her clear alliance with the Senju, the Uchiha had made no moves to counter it.

Madara was not one to tolerate others stepping on his head.

It was unthinkable that he would simply let this happen without resistance.

Clearly, some form of exchange had taken place behind the scenes.

And indeed, for Yayoi to ascend to her new position, the Senju had been forced to pay a significant price.

They had made several concessions, even going so far as to promise never to interfere in matters related to the Ninja Academy.

With this agreement, the Academy would effectively become the Uchiha clan's domain.

Most graduates from future generations would inevitably develop a natural affinity for the Uchiha.

The Senju knew the dangers of this arrangement.

But to secure a loyal ally in the highest ranks, they had no choice but to accept the risks.

When the time was right, they would find a way to extend their influence over the Academy.

Promises?

Only children put their faith in such things. Adults dealt in power and advantage.

"Things are becoming more and more interesting," Kyōsuke murmured as he tossed the letter into the flames, watching it turn to ash. "Pass down the order—we depart for the village tomorrow."

"Yes, sir!"

The next morning, the Uchiha left behind their newly established 'Twelve Guardian Ninja' in the capital, then set off in full force.

Naturally, as Kyōsuke's disciple, the lively and adorable Anzai Eri accompanied them.

The daimyo had initially considered sending a group of maidservant to attend to his daughter's needs.

But worried that such an act might displease Kyōsuke, he ultimately decided against it.

"Perhaps it would be best for her to gain some life experience on her own."

As it turned out, his concerns were entirely unnecessary.

Throughout the journey, Anzai Eri remained cheerful and energetic, showing none of the fragility expected of a pampered princess.

"Sensei, look! I can already use the Transformation Jutsu!"

"Not bad."

"Haruto, look! Haven't I improved with shuriken throwing~?"

"Oh! That's really impressive!"

Not just Haruto, but many other clansmen also took great care of the adorable little princess. From time to time, they would patiently correct any mistakes she made in her training, ensuring she stayed on the right path.

With his clansmen watching over her, Kyōsuke was more than happy to relax. However, it seemed the god had other plans for him.

Before long, their grand procession was met with an unexpected visitor.

"Uchiha Kyōsuke?"

"Excellent. Your head shall be mine," the intruder declared, his voice carrying an air of chilling certainty.
