Konoha: The Absolute Justice of the Uchiha

Chapter 122 Xiao's Attention! In the eyes of absolute justice, no one is superior! (Long chapter of 10,000 words)
A bloody piece of flesh slid off Mitarashi Anko's face and fell to the ground with a "thud." She wiped her slightly damp face in a daze, but ended up wiping her hand with blood.

Looking around, three pools of blood were spilled on the ground, and a large amount of indescribable stuff assaulted the eyes.

Uchiha Ikezumi's words echoed slowly in her ears.

Hongdou seemed to realize that she might have gotten into trouble.

Breathing in the stench of blood that filled the air, she turned back to look at Uchiha Ikezumi behind her, as if facing death without flinching.

Although she noticed that Uchiha Ikezumi's expression didn't change much, she still felt guilty and apologized: "If I hadn't attacked him... maybe you could have been spared?"

She felt that Orochimaru must have left some strange curse mark on these three ninjas.

The conditions for activating the curse mark are to kill them or to put them into a near-death state.

Perhaps it was because of the venom of his own "Multiple Hidden Shadow Snake Hands".

That's how the curse mark on the last survivor was activated.

“It doesn’t matter,” said Uchiha Izumi. “Given Orochimaru’s style, even if that person hadn’t been injured, the curse mark Orochimaru had placed on him would have been activated.”

Mitarashi Anko was taken aback: "You... seem to know Orochimaru quite well?"

Uchiha Ikezumi said, "He was an 'evil' that I had wanted to eliminate for many years, but unfortunately, the 'Absolute Justice' was still weak at the time. The only perfect opportunity was the day he defected, but in the end, I still failed to kill him."

Mitarashi Anko probably realized why Orochimaru was paying so much attention to Uchiha Ikezumi.

They were being closely watched by this "melting beast".

Perhaps Orochimaru at that time also felt like he was being constantly threatened?

Just as a storm of thoughts was raging in Hongdou's mind.

She suddenly realized that Uchiha Ikezumi had left, as if the three ninjas sent by Orochimaru could not stir up much emotion in him.

Hongdou could only shake off her thoughts and hurriedly followed.

She didn't forget that she was now a "prisoner" with only temporary access to certain activities.

The three corpses, now reduced to pieces, and the several villains killed by Uchiha Ikezumi along the way, served as a constant warning to her that she must never disobey Uchiha Ikezumi's "absolute justice"!
otherwise……

She might be the next corpse!

……

"Heh heh... So all the curse seals were activated? They died so quickly! I bet those three didn't even have the strength to resist before that brat killed them instantly, right?"

Somewhere in Konoha.

Orochimaru, who was in the underground research base, narrowed his eyes slightly.

He clearly had a vague feeling about something, which is why he said that.

"Looks like he rejected the olive branch he offered!" Orochimaru licked his lips with a slippery, wet tongue.

A sinister smile hung on his pale, somewhat frightening face.

"They really do see me as their enemy, just like always!"

"Unfortunately, your resistance to me will not only fail to make me give up my lust for your body, but will actually make me even more interested in you."

"Because you've grown much faster than I expected! This body... is perfect as my vessel."

"Heh heh! Don't die before I meet you!"

Just as Orochimaru was grinning sinisterly and talking to himself...

He suddenly seemed to sense something, and the smile on his face slowly faded. A hint of displeasure flashed in his golden vertical pupils, along with a fleeting killing intent, but he quickly concealed it.

Orochimaru said to the air, "Heh heh, always showing up uninvited like this is really annoying. Couldn't you have contacted me in another way? Did you really have to come knocking on my door?"

"The Legendary Sannin of Konoha are truly perceptive!" A black and white figure slowly emerged from the wall behind Orochimaru.

Orochimaru turned around, narrowed his eyes, and uttered a code name: "Xuan... Heh, you know my name, but I don't know your background. Isn't that a little unfair?"

Jue remained expressionless and said, "There's no need to vent your anger and dissatisfaction on me. I was just sent by the 'leader'."

“He sent me here to give you a warning—wherever you are hiding… Xiao will find you very soon. Don’t join Xiao and do nothing. You can’t enjoy the benefits of joining Xiao without doing anything for Xiao. There’s no such thing as a free lunch.”

"As you can see, I'm just a gofer."

Orochimaru's eyes were already narrowed to slits, and the killing intent deep in his pupils was no longer concealed. He asked in an icy tone, "So... is there a mission you want to assign me?"

Zetsu said calmly, "Uchiha Ikezumi... you should have heard of this Konoha dual-bloodline ninja, right? After all, before you defected, you were one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha."

A hint of surprise, barely perceptible to ordinary people, flashed in Orochimaru's eyes.

A smile suddenly appeared on her lips: "Xiao, have you already noticed him?"

'To be precise—Obito has been so fixated on that kid who, for some reason, seems to know everything, that it's almost become an obsession.'

'That guy even suspected I had leaked the information to Uchiha Ikezumi... forcing me to prove myself to him.'

After silently grumbling to himself, Jue remained outwardly calm and said, "All you need to do is share the information you have and do as the leader says."

Obviously.

Obito wanted to use Akatsuki's power to investigate Uchiha Ikezumi.

Someone who knows so much about him...

That's too much of a threat to Obito!

Just as Orochimaru was about to say something, he suddenly pondered for a moment, smiled sinisterly, and turned to ask Zetsu, "Was it really the leader's order?"

Jue said, "What do you think?"

"Ho ho..."

Orochimaru smiled noncommittally.

……

Half a day later.

evening.

The capital of the Fire Nation.

Mitarashi Anko initially thought that Uchiha Ikezumi was simply passing through the Fire Country capital on a mission. However, she was surprised when Uchiha Ikezumi suddenly stopped.

"arrive."

These two simple words made Hongdou realize that the other party's goal was to come to the capital of the Land of Fire!
Tachibana Jiro meowed and spoke in human language: "Although I was born and raised in the Land of Fire, this is my first time here! If I remember correctly, Izumi-sama has never been to the capital of the Land of Fire before, meow?"

"Ah."

Uchiha Ikezumi replied with a short syllable, his gaze calmly sweeping over the bustling scene before him.

What outsiders see as bustling prosperity, he sees as a hidden evil.

With just a glance, Uchiha Ikezumi saw two red-named villains and more than a dozen white-named people ahead of him.

Even in the most prosperous and central areas, the breeding of evil cannot be stopped. Or rather... the more prosperous and central an area is, the more it becomes a breeding ground for evil.

These words made Tachibana Jiro, who was standing to the side, vaguely realize something.

But Mitarashi Anko next door was a little confused.

Before the entire Hidden Leaf Village learned that Uchiha Ikezumi possessed eyes that could see through the evil of the past and the evil of the future, she had already left the village with two ninja companions to carry out a ninja mission.

Hearing Uchiha Ikezumi's words, she carefully examined everyone who passed by in front of her or beside her.

However, nothing seemed amiss.

Just as Mitarashi Anko was feeling a bit puzzled but didn't know how to ask, she suddenly noticed that Uchiha Ikezumi beside her was slowly drawing the ninja sword from her waist!

The bright silver blade was even stained with some bloodstains that hadn't been wiped off.

Red Bean could more keenly see that the blade was getting dull, and wondered how many people this ninja sword had cut down during this time.
but……

More importantly, shouldn't such a dangerous weapon be drawn in public?
Even ninjas shouldn't be so "high-profile," right?

Won't this definitely cause some unnecessary trouble?

as predicted.

In less than three seconds, Mitarashi Anko saw two men dressed like samurai rushing over, carrying swords. One of them shouted, "Hey ninja, what are you doing? Put your sword away! This is the capital of the Land of Fire, not some backwater like Konoha! Don't let these sharp blades clash with the adults in the capital!"

Konoha...

countryside……

Can these two words be used together?

Red Bean's lips twitched imperceptibly. Truly worthy of being a "capital city dweller" of the Land of Fire!

"Hey! I was just calling you! Didn't you hear me?" Two men dressed as samurai blocked Uchiha Ikezumi's path.

"Just right."

Uchiha Ikezumi's gaze lingered slightly above the tops of their heads, and he said in a low voice, "That saves me the trouble of walking over there."

This statement left the two samurai bewildered but impressed.

They just instinctively felt that something was off about the guy in front of them, which made them nervously grip the hilt of their knives.

The pedestrians on the road, suddenly witnessing this tense scene, couldn't help but stop and stop out of curiosity.

Red Bean's pupils constricted, and she thought to herself, "This is bad." She hurriedly tried to whisper a reminder: "Chiquan, these sword-wielding samurai are police officers from the capital of the Land of Fire. You can think of them as the Uchiha police force..."

But before she could finish speaking, Uchiha Ikezumi interrupted her, cutting her off completely.

"Adachi Tsuguhito. Ten years ago, during law enforcement, he mistakenly killed a man. When a male relative of the victim sought an explanation, you broke both of his legs; his female relative was dragged into your home and, together with your colleague 'Sakigawa Keiji,' violated and humiliated her, causing the female relative of the victim to hang herself due to unbearable humiliation."

Uchiha Ikezumi then shifted his gaze to another samurai beside him. Under the other's horrified gaze, in front of everyone, he continued coldly, making a shocking statement: "Sakigawa Keiji... ten years ago, he and his police colleague 'Ashichi Tsuguhito' violated a woman, causing her to hang herself."

"As a member of the police force of the capital of the Land of Fire, he knowingly broke the law and committed extremely heinous crimes. He has not voluntarily surrendered himself for ten years, which shows that he has no remorse for the evil he committed back then."

"You country bumpkin ninja, what are you talking about! Don't think that just because you're a ninja you can spout nonsense! This is the capital of the Land of Fire, not your Konoha Village!" The samurai named "Sakigawa Keiji" was the first to lose his temper.

The anxious yet angry expression on his face betrayed his true feelings.

He shouted at Uchiha Ikezumi, "You say I've broken the law and committed evil deeds? You say I've abused a woman? Then I ask you, what evidence do you have? You Konoha ninja!"

"To speak nonsense without evidence is an affront to the laws of the Land of Fire. You are suspected of insulting my personal dignity and spreading rumors in public!"

"And... and..."

But the moment his eyes met Uchiha Izumi's eyes.

For some reason, a sudden fear arose from within me.

That prevented him from saying the rest of his words.

Uchiha Ikezumi said expressionlessly, "The evidence will be available soon."

"Then why don't you take it..."

The next second, with a "plop" sound, Anko watched as Uchiha Ikezumi, without any fancy moves, slashed at the throat of the samurai standing on the left!

An elite Konoha Jonin attacks an ordinary samurai...

That would be as easy as crushing an ant.

The next second, Uchiha Ikezumi placed his ninja sword against Sakigawa Keiji's collarbone, the cold blade sending chills down one's spine.

The blood splattered from the headless corpse next to him splattered half of Sakigawa Keiji's face, and the rather warm blood made his gaze involuntarily shift to one side.

The headless corpse was reflected in his pupils.

"Murder...murder!!!" The terrified shouts of the onlookers, their scattered cries like birds and beasts, and the constant screams of alarm... continued to stimulate Keiji Sakigawa's nerves.

He also felt a warm sensation in his groin.

The urine dribbled together with the blood flowing on the ground.

"Ten years ago, did you defile an innocent woman, causing her to suffer humiliation and choose to hang herself?" Uchiha Izumi's voice fell into his ears, sounding like the whisper of a demon.

He never imagined that the other party's so-called "evidence" was obtained in this way!

he……

My legs went weak!
"Yes...yes..." Keiji Sakigawa's voice trembled violently. He felt like he had encountered a madman today! No wonder ninjas didn't have a good reputation in the Land of Fire; none of these ninjas were normal!

As the fear of death looms...

He admitted it.

Uchiha Ikezumi said, "See, I told you there would be evidence soon."

Poof——

In less than half a minute... two people died in the capital of the Land of Fire!

And he was killed in full view of everyone!

"..." Mitarashi Anko, who witnessed the whole thing, was at a loss for words. She knew that Uchiha Ikezumi was extreme, judging from his actions of even killing ninjas from his own village. But... before, Uchiha Ikezumi had killed people when there were hardly any people around.

This time.

He was killing openly and honestly! And this isn't Konoha Village; the name of the Uchiha Police Force doesn't count here, because this is the capital of the Land of Fire!

If I remember correctly, the Uchiha police force ninjas had absolutely no law enforcement authority in the capital of the Land of Fire, right?
hiss!
Could it be that Chi Quan doesn't know?
After all, that ninja cat said it was his first time visiting the capital of the Land of Fire!
Hongdou felt a chill run down her spine. She didn't know why she, a "prisoner," should worry about a cold-blooded law enforcer.
……

"Tch, where did this madman come from..." In the extremely panicked and chaotic crowd caused by the deaths of two samurai in broad daylight, a man who was well hidden frowned slightly.

He peered through the gaps in the crowd and landed his gaze on Uchiha Ikezumi, muttering to himself, "This outfit... it reminds me a bit of the Uchiha police force in Konoha!"

It wasn't uncommon for ordinary Uchiha clan ninjas to carry out ninja missions outside Konoha; however, this was the first time he had ever seen Uchiha ninjas from the police force outside Konoha.

"It should have nothing to do with me... I've been quietly away from Konoha for fifteen years now, and maybe no one even remembers me anymore."

Just as he was about to turn and leave, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Uchiha Ikezumi's gaze directed in his direction!

The man's mind felt as if it were experiencing a magnitude 10 earthquake!

How can it be? !
Could it be that the Uchiha police force ninjas' appearance in the Land of Fire's capital was really because of me?!

Do not!
It could just be a coincidence!
possible……

As his thoughts flashed through his mind, he suddenly saw a flash of blood-red light in the eyes of the Uchiha ninja.

In the final moment before he was caught in the Sharingan genjutsu, only one thought remained in his mind—it seems like they really were coming for me!

pity.

late.

The Sharingan genjutsu with three tomoe had already been implanted into his mind in an instant, even through the crowd, leaving the man's face blank.

His arms involuntarily pressed tightly against his waist, his legs were also tightly pressed together, and his facial expression was extremely distorted, as if he was being tightly bound by something invisible, and he could not break free no matter how hard he struggled.

It was as if he had been thrown into the deep sea. He took a deep breath and then held it in his mouth tightly.

His face turned ashen and pale, and the veins in his neck trembled violently.

The people standing next to him seemed to notice that something was wrong with him.

When she reached out to pat him, she saw the man lie down stiffly. His eyes were wide open, blood vessels running through the whites of his eyes, and his face was ashen.

He was suffocated to death by the Sharingan genjutsu!

“The third one.” Uchiha Ikezumi’s eyes returned to normal, and a notification flashed before his eyes indicating that he had killed a red-named villain.

But the opponent was just a Konoha genin or a rogue ninja.

Nothing substantial was revealed.

Mitarashi Anko stared in astonishment at the man who had collapsed in the crowd, his face turning ashen. Overwhelmed with shock and curiosity, she couldn't help but ask, "Was that person... also a criminal?"

She doesn't understand.

Uchiha Izumi killed a fellow villager perhaps because he knew him well and knew that the other party had committed a crime.

But logically speaking, Uchiha Izumi wouldn't even know those two samurai or the man in the crowd, right? There's absolutely no possibility that the two sides would cross paths.

Eh?
and many more!

Hongdou seems to have discovered a key point—if there's no possibility of them intersecting, then why is Chiquan able to accurately state the names of the two samurai and the crimes they committed?

Hongdou was dumbfounded.

For a moment, she felt her mind wasn't working properly. "Lord Chiquan's eyes can see through a person's past misdeeds and what misdeeds they will commit in the future."

Tachibana Jiro's voice reached Anko's ears: "Don't doubt Izumi-sama's correctness so easily, young lady!"

Young...girl...

If someone calls her that, Hongdou thinks she might be happy; but if a cat calls her that, she always feels like she's being looked down upon.

However, considering that she was a prisoner and that her "human rights" might indeed be worse than a cat's, Hongdou chose not to argue.

wrong!

The key point should be Uchiha Izumi's eyes, which can see through the sins of others in the past and the sins of the future!
He actually possesses such an ability?!

Red Bean was shocked.

……

at the same time.

"Phew... We've caught up." Jiraiya gazed at a group of children, aged between five and fourteen, not far ahead. He could even see a striking figure at the very front.

"Tsunade……"

A complex look flashed in Jiraiya's eyes. Since he left the village and began searching for Orochimaru all over the ninja world, he hadn't seen Tsunade for a long time.

Unexpectedly, this encounter was caused by a commotion by a brat named Uchiha Izumi.

"Isn't it a bit inappropriate to hide in the back and sneak around?"

Tsunade's loud voice reached Jiraiya's ears.

Tsunade, who was in front of them, had stopped at some point.

She glanced behind her with a hostile expression, her hands rubbing together nervously, as if she was about to make her move if the stalker didn't come out soon.

"Wait! Wait a minute!"

Jiraiya, who felt a slight pain in his ribs, suddenly shuddered. He hadn't forgotten the miserable fate he suffered years ago when he recklessly spied on Tsunade and was severely injured.

Jiraiya quickly jumped down from the tree.

Raising both hands indicates that one is harmless.

"It's me!"

Jiraiya's appearance startled the group of children. After all, a creepy old man with long white hair and a spiky hairstyle always seemed like a bad person.

Although Uchiha Izumi's three-tomoe Sharingan had once plunged these children into a beautiful genjutsu dream, allowing them to temporarily forget their miserable situation in the underground secret room of the Tanabata Street dance hall.

However, the deepest fear of such people cannot be erased by the Sharingan genjutsu.

Dozens of children rushed to Tsunade's back—because of the few days they had spent together, they had come to realize that Tsunade was a very powerful person who could shatter a large rock with a single punch.

This big-breasted older sister is the one who can protect them!

"It's alright." Tsunade reached out and gently stroked a child's head, trying to calm him down.

She looked at Jiraiya in front of her with a complicated expression.

Obviously, he didn't expect that his old friend, whom he hadn't seen for many years, would meet him in such an abrupt way.

"What are you doing here? And you're here to follow me, aren't you?"

Tsunade's sudden two questions made Jiraiya scratch his head.

Jiraiya honestly explained why he had been following him.

Tsunade raised an eyebrow: "You noticed I didn't stop that brat Uchiha Izumi from killing hundreds of people, and you're worried something happened to me?"

"Cough!" Jiraiya nodded and said, "Anyway, I was worried about that, so I impulsively chased after them."

"Tch, why should I stop that brat?"

Tsunade waved her hand and said, "Besides, nothing happened to me. Instead of wasting your time, you should hurry up and bring Orochimaru back. It's been so long since we've seen him since he defected from Konoha. Before you catch him, remember to give him a good beating to bring him to his senses."

Jiraiya didn't leave, but stood there, curiously asking, "Tsunade, are those children behind you one of the reasons you didn't stop Uchiha Ikezumi?"

A shadow crossed Tsunade's eyes.

"Jiraiya, how bad do you think a person can be?" Tsunade didn't answer, but instead posed this question.

Jiraiya paused, then stroked his chin and replied, "Human evil thoughts become endless as desires expand, though they must also have limits. The most wicked person I've ever met..."

Jiraiya paused, then exhaled, his expression complex, and said, "It might be our old friend Orochimaru. He too was driven by his desires, which led to an extreme expansion of his evil thoughts."

“Then you still underestimate the evil in the ninja world.” Tsunade murmured, “Orochimaru’s evil is a selfish, self-serving, and stubborn evil. His evil will make people feel disgusted, disliked, and angry. It will make people feel that he is not on the same side as themselves.”

"but……"

Tsunade met Jiraiya's gaze from afar, and said in a deep voice, "The evil that Uchiha Izumi showed me was infuriating, it made me unable to control my killing intent, and it even made me feel a sense of world-weariness and despair towards this ninja world."

"It makes me feel... that this ninja world shouldn't be like this. It also makes me unable to remain indifferent to the evil I see before me, and it makes me unable to ignore everything that is happening in front of me."

Jiraiya was momentarily stunned.

Tsunade made a shocking statement: "Uchiha Izumi did kill several hundred people that night. I didn't stop him because I followed him and killed nineteen people as well."

“These children are all pitiful. I can’t find a better orphanage to take them in right now, so I can only bring them to Konoha and see if the old man can take them in.”

“I can tell you what happened, but I can’t tell them in front of them. They’ve finally managed to forget all about it.”

Tsunade paused, then continued, "It was Uchiha Izumi who used the power of her Sharingan to make them forget. That brat almost exhausted his own Sharingan power to the point of collapsing while doing that."

Jiraiya: "!!!"

For some reason, Jiraiya seemed to hear a description of Uchiha Ikezumi from Tsunade that was somewhat different from his preconceived notions.

It seems that Uchiha Izumi influenced Tsunade in just one day.

……

Fire Nation.

capital.

The news that a Konoha ninja had killed three people in broad daylight caused quite a stir in the capital of the Land of Fire. In particular, the fact that two of them were samurai from the capital's police force alarmed many nobles in the Land of Fire, as well as the daimyo of the Land of Fire.

"Konoha ninja?"

"Murder in the street?"

The daimyo of the Land of Fire frowned. He hadn't expected to encounter a ninja murderer instead of Asuma and the other twelve guardian ninja. This made him anxious once again.

Because of the protection of the Twelve Guardian Ninjas, he was able to sit comfortably in the position of Daimyo of the Land of Fire, without fear of assassination or other powerful figures trying to overthrow him.

Without the protection of the Twelve Guardian Ninja, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire felt like a rich kid in a bustling city.

His intense inner unease made him irritable and restless.

The lingering sense of foreboding made him pace back and forth.

Suddenly, a thought struck the Fire Country Daimyo. He took a deep breath to maintain his composure and immediately ordered the retainer who had run to report the news, "Issue a bounty on the ninja! Offer a reward of eight million ryo... no! Ten million ryo for the ninja who committed the murder in the city! Make sure that every ninja in the Fire Country capital knows about this bounty!"

As a daimyo, he may not have much else, but he definitely has the most money.

He spent a lot of money to eliminate an uncertain factor that made him uneasy.

It was worth it for him.

after all……

Who can guarantee that a madman who dares to kill people in the streets of the Fire Country's capital won't suddenly storm into the daimyo's mansion?
Throughout the long history of the ninja world, there are records of daimyo being assassinated by ninjas.

"Yes, Lord Daimyo!" The retainer nodded hurriedly and retreated to carry out the orders of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.

But before the daimyo of the Land of Fire could even calm down a little...

Another retainer rushed in.

"Lord Daimyo!"

He cried out anxiously, "Something terrible has happened! The ninja villain who killed someone in the streets of the Fire Country's capital has broken into the 'Yuki Clan's' clan compound! When... when that ninja villain came out, he was covered in blood!"

"When the samurai from the police force rushed into the Yuuki clan's territory to check the situation, they found that of the more than fifty members of the Yuuki clan, only eleven remained!"

"All the ninja bodyguards they hired were killed! And the head of the Yuuki clan was even beheaded!"

"Most of the eleven survivors were maids and gardeners they had hired! They were all terrified!"

The shocking news almost made the Fire Country Daimyo catch his breath.

The Yuki clan is a powerful family that has been established in the Land of Fire for hundreds of years, and they were already a strong clan even before the founding of Konoha.

Furthermore, it has numerous industries within the Land of Fire, permeating all aspects of people's lives in the Land of Fire.

When the Hokage of Konoha met the head of the Yuki clan, he wasn't exactly overly polite, but he at least had to give him some face. After all, the man was one of Konoha's major benefactors.

however……

This renowned and powerful family of the Land of Fire was wiped out in an instant by a ninja villain!

There were only eleven survivors, most of whom were maids and gardeners. Even if one or two members of the Yuki clan were still barely clinging to life, it was practically the same as the extermination of the clan.
A chilling coldness suddenly shot from my spine straight to the top of my head.

Asma...

Kazuma...

Land...

And the other members of the Twelve Guardian Ninja...

When are you finally coming back?

I don't feel safe at all!

The slight trembling of the Fire Country Daimyo's hand proved that his heart was definitely not at peace at this moment.

"You!" He quickly said to the retainer in front of him, "Catch up with that person who just left and tell him—increase the bounty on the ninja villain from ten million taels to three million... no! Increase it directly to fifty million taels! The Daimyo's Mansion will pay for it!"

"Huh?!" The retainer who rushed over to report the emergency was momentarily stunned.

"What do you mean 'huh'? Hurry up and go!"

Enraged, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire gritted his teeth and kicked the other man in the butt, sending him flying out the door.

As a result, the retainer he kicked out of the door almost bumped into his eldest son who happened to be passing by.

The eldest son of the daimyo of the Land of Fire hurriedly avoided his disheveled retainers and went back into the house, looking at the furious daimyo in astonishment.

"Father, I heard that a ninja killed three people in the marketplace." The daimyo's eldest son hesitated before asking, "Father, is it because of this that you are angry?"

"He killed more than three people!"

The daimyo of the Land of Fire took a deep breath and said to his eldest son, "That unknown ninja villain... almost wiped out the entire Yuuki clan of the Land of Fire! Just now!"

The eldest son of the daimyo: "!!!"

……

the other side.

Mitarashi Anko has become numb to it all.

Because she discovered that Uchiha Ikezumi truly disregarded all external factors when carrying out his justice. Whether it was the samurai of the Fire Country's capital police force or the powerful families of the Fire Country's capital, in his eyes they were all villains who deserved to be eradicated!
When she watched helplessly as Uchiha Ikezumi slaughtered more than fifty members of the powerful Yuki clan, leaving only about ten survivors.

She realized that she had no chance of persuading Chi Quan.

She didn't even dare to imagine how many people Uchiha Ikezumi would have to kill today to satisfy his "need" of [executing absolute justice].
and……

What puzzled Hongdou was... looking across the entire capital of the Fire Kingdom, why didn't anyone step forward to stop his behavior?
Isn't it said that the Daimyo has twelve guardian ninja by his side?
If I remember correctly, the Hokage's second son, Sarutobi Asuma, was one of the Twelve Guardian Ninja, right?
How did they disappear without a trace?

Just as Aoko was deep in thought, Tachibana Jiro's sudden remark almost made her brain shut down: "Lord Ikezumi, shouldn't we ask someone where the daimyo's residence is?"

Mitarashi Anko: "???"

Wait……

and many more!

A famous name?

Could this ninja cat be referring to the daimyo of the Land of Fire?
"No rush," Uchiha Ikezumi said indifferently. "We've come all this way to the capital of the Land of Fire, how could we possibly leave after killing just one daimyo? The evil here... isn't limited to just the daimyo. Looking around, it's a veritable breeding ground for evil in the ninja world."

"Especially those so-called high-ranking nobles. They are born with the belief that they are superior to others and that the laws and morals of the Land of Fire cannot restrain them."

“Even the law is biased towards them in some ways, which has led them to regard committing violence and evil as a normal occurrence. They also regard ordinary people as ‘creatures’ that are different from them and inferior to them.”

Uchiha Ikezumi said quietly, "How can we govern the entire ninja world without completely eradicating the evil we see before us?"

Uchiha Ikezumi's voice wasn't loud, but when it reached Mitarashi Anko's ears, it exploded like a series of exploding tags.

The explosion instantly threw her thoughts into chaos.

The words "kill a daimyo of the Land of Fire" echoed wildly in her mind.

Hongdou realized she was already drenched in sweat.

At this moment, she finally realized what Uchiha Ikezumi had said she wanted to do.
He's going to assassinate the daimyo of the Land of Fire!!!
No... Judging from Uchiha Izumi's open and aboveboard actions today, this can no longer be considered an assassination, right?

This is a perfectly legitimate killing!

It seems that he has no concept of "famous name" at all!
"Meow, as a former classmate of Lord Ikezumi at the Ninja Academy, don't you know that in Lord Ikezumi's eyes of 'absolute justice,' there is no concept of 'superior people'?"

A sentence from Tachibana Jiro struck Anko's mind like lightning, causing the bewildered Mitarashi Anko to pause for a moment.

"Absolute justice sees no superiors..."

Hongdou repeated the sentence in a low voice.

……

at the same time.

The most prosperous area in the capital of the Land of Fire.

Several samurai hurriedly pushed through the crowd, ignoring the rising and falling clamor of discontent. They squeezed to a government notice board, quickly tore down the notices, and then posted the papers they were holding.

Then they hurriedly pushed through the crowd, panting, and ran towards another location. Judging from the large stack of papers in their hands, they probably wouldn't finish their task in less than a day and a night.

Some people couldn't help but cast their curious glances at the notice board.

"Ninja... wanted poster?"

"Hiss! It's signed by the lord?!"

They soon discovered that this was not a government order, but an arrest warrant!
The reward amount above is stimulating everyone's nerves.

"Fifty million taels?!"

A series of incredulous gasps rose and fell among the crowd.

This shocked not only the common people of the Land of Fire's capital, but even some of the ninjas in the crowd widened their eyes.

"Fifty million ryo, that's probably the bounty level for some small ninja villages' Kage, right?" A ninja wearing a Konoha headband rubbed his chin, staring at the extremely simple information on the bounty poster.

"Name unknown, age unknown, gender male..."
