Uchiha Shisui was also very tempted, his eyes flickered, he wanted to agree. But thinking of his grandfather at ho, he shook his head. "I still need to ask my grandfather."
"Hmm, who is your grandfather?" Uchiha Ryun suddenly asked. Itachi, who was covering his butt nearby, suddenly stood up. "Fourth Elder, Shisui’s grandfather is the forr Fourth Elder of the Uchiha Dove Faction!"
Ryun’s mory instantly returned to that ti by the bonfire when he sparred with so elders. So it was him~ No wonder then, why Shisui thought about Konoha and the clan until his death.
If it’s that guy, then everything makes sense. Ryun nodded. "Okay, if he agrees, you can co find . I will be training Itachi here for this period of ti."
After speaking, Ryun turned around. Itachi blinked his big eyes, looking at Shisui. He also hoped Shisui could seize this opportunity. After all, not everyone was qualified to train with the Hokage, Uchiha Ryun.
Everyone who trained with Master Grandpa was now a pillar of Konoha.
The Fifth Hokage candidate, Konoha’s Crown Prince, Namikaze Minato.
Commander of the Border Defense Forces, Sarutobi Shinnosuke.
Deputy Head of the Intelligence Departnt, Yamanaka Inoichi.
Head of the Resource Managent Departnt, Akimichi Chōza.
Head of the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Fugaku.
Head of the Hyūga Clan, Hyūga Hiashi.
All were key figures in Konoha, wielding both power and strength.
Shisui smiled, not overly joyful nor sad. Although he also wanted to train with Ryun, he was best at controlling his emotions.
He waved at Itachi, then left the Seventh Training Ground. After he left, Itachi seed a little lost. Seeing this, Ryun bent down.
He brought his index and middle fingers together and tapped Itachi’s forehead. "Silly boy, stop thinking about it, get ready for training!"
Itachi frowned, imdiately captivated by this action from Ryun. He felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity with this gesture.
"Okay!" Itachi nodded, his eyes firm. He was determined to train hard! Even if Shisui’s grandfather ultimately didn’t agree to let Master Grandpa teach Shisui, he would still teach everything he learned from Master Grandpa to Shisui himself!
Ryun smiled at Itachi, then said, "First lesson, horse stance. Hold it for two hours first." After saying this, Ryun demonstrated the horse stance for Itachi. Itachi, being clever, learned it imdiately.
Then Ryun started slacking off. He fetched a lounge chair from the side, lay down on it, and leisurely cracked sunflower seeds.
Itachi initially thought it was quite simple. Wasn’t it just holding this one pose? However, after ten minutes, he was sweating profusely. Wh, what’s going on? Why does this feel more exhausting than running!
His legs began to tremble. Ryun said, "Tighten up! Do you know why shinobi die so easily? It’s not about the quality of chakra, but the physical body!"
"In a battle of attrition, after chakra is completely depleted, what do you rely on? Endurance! Stamina! Also, training the body well helps with chakra extraction and increases chakra reserves!"
Ryun began explaining the purpose of training the horse stance to Itachi. Itachi took a deep breath, his eyes firm. His trembling legs imdiately straightened.
Ryun nodded, good, good. Next was timing. He rembered Fugaku lasted thirty minutes back then, Minato lasted forty five minutes.
Let’s see how long this little guy can hold on!
Ryun placed a tir to the side and scrolled through his phone.
Konoha Construction Group established, dedicated to developing new residential projects, beautiful environnt, affordable prices.
Konoha’s revenue increased by 200% compared to previous years, employnt rate reached 95%.
Konoha Hokage Uchiha Ryun pointed out, we must comprehensively implent...
Ryun marveled that Orochimaru was truly a talent. He researched smartphones, and now there was electronic news!
Let’s check out the novels Konoha people are writing now.
’Urging Updates is the Greatest Encouragent for Authors’
’Powering with Love Can Bring Inspiration to Authors’
’A Novel Without Urging for Updates is Like the West Without Jerusalem’
Ryun silently gave a like. Ti passed unknowingly.
With a thud, Ryun put down his phone and picked up the tir, pressing stop.
Fifty five minutes! Ryun’s pupils constricted. Wow. He looked at Itachi, who had now fainted, drenched in sweat. His Uchiha clothes were soaked through.
He looked like he had been fished out of water. Ryun quickly picked Itachi up, used Flying Thunder God, and returned ho.
Then he exchanged for a dicinal bath with the system. The system placed the dicinal bath into the bathtub. Ryun felt the temperature, it was just right.
He took off Itachi’s clothes and placed him into the dicinal bath.
This dicinal bath could relieve physical fatigue, nourish muscles and bones, and prevent stunted growth from training too early.
After doing all this, Ryun breathed a sigh of relief, then sent a ssage to Uchiha Fugaku.
"55 minutes."
"What 55 minutes? What are you talking about, Sensei?"
"Horse stance..."
"Oh, 55 minutes is 55 minutes then."
"Wait, wait wait? 55 minutes! Damn! Sensei, do you see that? My son has the makings of a great emperor! This child takes after !"
Ryun snorted coldly. Your son lasted twice as long as you, how can you say that so shalessly? Ryun rolled his eyes.
Indeed, Itachi’s aptitude far surpassed Minato’s. Looking at Itachi in the bathtub, he smiled.
Outside, Tsunade suddenly knocked on the bathroom door.
"Husband, is that you back?" Tsunade asked curiously.
Ryun nodded. "Co in. Little Itachi is soaking in the dicinal bath. This kid’s willpower and talent are truly top notch."
Tsunade was curious. She walked in, saw little Itachi in the bathtub, and looked at Ryun.
"How did this child get so exhausted?" Tsunade asked worriedly.
"Horse stance. You know. This kid held it for 55 minutes. That’s 10 minutes longer than Minato back then. And he’s only 4, Minato was 8 at that ti," Ryun said with a smile.
"Fugaku had a good child," Tsunade smiled. "Alright, I’ll head out now. You watch over this child. I’ll order so takeout. He’ll probably be hungry after training and the dicinal bath." Tsunade thought back to the ti when the six kids were training.
Ryun nodded. "Okay, you go order first, wife. I’ll pay later."
Tsunade nodded and returned to the bedroom to order food.

At the Fourth Elder’s residence in the Uchiha Compound
Uchiha Shisui opened the door to his ho and saw the Fourth Elder sitting inside, smoking.
"You’re back," the Fourth Elder smiled. "Why so early today? Is sothing up?" His face looked sowhat kind.
Shisui nodded. "Grandfather, I t the Hokage today."
The Fourth Elder was stunned. He put his pipe aside. "You an, Uchiha Ryun?"
"Yes!" Shisui knelt and sat on the floor, nodding.
"Then, what did he say?" The Fourth Elder looked seriously at Shisui, his grandson.
"Grandfather, the Hokage said he wants to train under him!" As soon as Shisui said this, there was a clatter.
It was the sound of the pipe hitting the floor! Then the Fourth Elder quickly stood up, walked over to Shisui, and grabbed his shoulders.
Actually, ’walked’ isn’t quite right, it was more like he pounced! His movents were very swift!
"Grandson, then, did you agree?" The Fourth Elder’s eyes shone. Training under Uchiha Ryun was a trendous opportunity! How many people were qualified to train with Uchiha Ryun!
Now his grandson, Uchiha Shisui, had caught the eye of Hokage Uchiha Ryun. It brought glory to the ancestors!
Despite their early disagreents and argunts over political views, after Ryun ascended to the Hokage seat, he proved to be right!
It was precisely because of Ryun’s appearance that the Hawk and Dove factions within the clan disappeared. From then on, there was only one voice in the Uchiha clan, the voice of Hokage Uchiha Ryun!
"I, I said I would reply after consulting you, Grandfather," Shisui lowered his head.
"Foolish, you, ah!" The Fourth Elder sighed. His own son died on the battlefield, leaving only this grandson who was quite promising. Seeing the opportunity right before his eyes but not seizing it, he felt so regret.
"However, the Hokage said he’s recently teaching Itachi at the Seventh Training Ground. If I wanted to, I could go find him tomorrow," Shisui said with a smile.
The Fourth Elder was first stunned, then overjoyed. "Hahaha, grandson, did the Hokage really say that?"
The Fourth Elder held Shisui’s shoulders with both hands. Shisui nodded.
"Good! Good! Good good good good. Starting tomorrow, you must stick close to the Hokage, complete his training and tasks properly. Understand?" The Fourth Elder instructed.
"Yes, Grandson understands!" Shisui said with a smile.
The Fourth Elder’s old face smiled like a chrysanthemum. He patted his grandson’s shoulder. "You are stronger than , stronger than your father. Your talent is among the best even within the Uchiha clan."
"And now you’ve found a good teacher and friend. Your future achievents are surely bound to be limitless. Good, this way, when I die soday, I can rest assured." The Fourth Elder was old now and didn’t know how long he had left.
His only worry was his grandson, Uchiha Shisui. Although he knew he had talent and strength, he was too naive. If deceived by villains, his end would surely be miserable.
Now that Uchiha Ryun was willing to guide Shisui’s training, even if he wasn’t formally taking him as a disciple, the sentint was there. In the future, he could also look out for Shisui.
At least Shisui could live a happy life. He didn’t ask for Shisui to be extrely powerful, only that he could be safe and happy for his whole life.
