I unleashed a Hundred Demons Parade in the Ninja World

Among the high-ranking officials of Suoqian Village, an elderly man who appeared to be highly respected stepped forward and spoke.

Faced with the choice between the complete demise of the village and its continued existence, he chose the latter.

At the same time, taking into account the current power structure, they strived to maximize the interests of the village of Sukumae, merging into it as a ninja clan while retaining their own homeland. All of this was to prevent them from being gradually assimilated and absorbed by the demon village after joining, and ultimately ending up extinct.

"can."

"However, I also have a request."

"I will decide who will be the leader of the Locked-up Clan."

The voice of Huang is beyond question.

Chapter 642 If you wanted to see him again, how would you approach him?

"We agree."

"Then let me introduce myself first..."

The leaders of Suoqian Village present nodded slightly and agreed as they looked at each other.

Because they all held a preconceived notion.

They believed that the young adult in their field of vision simply wanted to find a suitable proxy among them as a daily communication partner, which was why he wanted to make the selection himself.

Moreover, given that their former leader has most likely perished in the Hidden Cloud Village, the remaining individuals are of similar qualifications and abilities. Allowing them to choose is more decisive and less discordant than having them fight amongst themselves.

Based on the above two points, they have no objections.

But just as the old man who had made the request was about to speak, Huang calmly interrupted this natural action.

"No need, I already have a suitable candidate."

"She and Chino will handle the subsequent demarcation of clan territory, integration with the Demon Hidden Village system, and other matters. As for other internal matters of the Kasugai clan, including their own secret techniques, I will not interfere as long as they do not disrupt the harmony and stability of the Demon Hidden Village."

Such a promise naturally put the minds of the senior officials in Suoqian Village at ease.

The ability to safeguard their family's secret techniques is the foundation upon which their lineage can survive and thrive in any place and under any power!

However, at this moment, a great question naturally arose in the minds of these people:

Although one might guess that the young adult in front of them had some information about their respective identities, abilities, and personalities, it was still surprising that he so decisively said that he had found a suitable candidate. So, who exactly did he choose?

"Thank you for your promise, Lord Demon Shadow. May I ask which of us you have chosen?"

"Next, we can pass on this message to the clansmen below, and assign positions according to their wishes, as well as recall clansmen."

They ultimately couldn't suppress their doubts and raised them again before the former could speak up.

However, the response they received caused these villagers from Suoqian Village and Gao Village to experience some uncontrollable emotions.

"Oh, the one I chose is not among you."

The casually uttered words made every ninja from the Lock Village present doubt their ears, or whether their young leader was playing a joke on them.

After all, the other party had promised that the leader of the village would be chosen from among the ninjas within the village.

If not among them, where else could they be?

However, the leaders of Suoqian Village could not find any hint of a joke on the former's face.

Could it be that this first-generation demon shadow has been toying with our side from beginning to end, in order to settle old scores?

For a moment, every member of the Suoqian Village leadership present had this radical idea in their minds.

However, they still restrained themselves and did not immediately vent their anger and confusion with sharp words.

There's no reason why someone who could lead their clan out of Konoha and create a great ninja village like Yokai Village would have such a wicked hobby!

Huang naturally noticed the doubts lingering in the hearts of the village's leaders, and without further piquing their curiosity, he simply called out towards the entrance:

"come in."

This pointed call not only caused the ninjas of the present village to subconsciously shift their gaze, but also brought their anger and indignation to a fever pitch, because this young leader had actually been preparing to parachute a commander down to their side all along!

The fundamental reason why these emotions are still building up and being restrained, and have not yet reached a complete breaking point, is:

They wanted to see what methods this First Hokage, the Demon Lord, intended to use to bypass the prerequisite that the leader of the Kusamae Village lineage must be a ninja from Kusamae Village!

"Tap, tap, tap..."

at the same time,

As Huang finished speaking, a series of footsteps approached from afar in the corridor outside the reception room.

This is not to say that the person who came was heavy or approached quickly, but simply because the environment in the conference room was too quiet at the moment!

It has reached the point where you can hear a pin drop, and only the breathing of the crowd can be heard!

Even the village elders, whose faces were already showing anger, clenched their teeth, barely able to contain their dissatisfaction.

This is the calm before the storm!

However, when the owner of the footsteps entered the reception room with trepidation, confusion, and unease—no, only until they reached the doorway where their face could be seen—they were still in a state of shock.

A strangely husky exclamation suddenly emanated from two of the high-ranking officials of Suoqian Village, simultaneously:

"Ali!"

This call to roll was filled with so much astonishment, bitterness, and complex emotions, and the speaker's own momentum deflated rapidly like a punctured balloon.

"Yes, Ali greets the two seniors."

The woman who was directly called out immediately bowed to the two seniors who had called her.

However, when he looked up again, a resolute look suddenly appeared in his eyes, as if he had made some kind of decision in this extreme time.

"Oh?"

"It seems you two know each other."

"Then I'll skip the introduction."

Huang lightly tapped the table, his face showing relief at having been spared a task.

Of course, even if the higher-ups in Suoqian Village don't recognize Ali, who was sent away from the village at a young age, he still has other ways to prove the latter's identity.

This method is not limited to special secret techniques such as publicly demonstrating hand seals with the pupils.

"why?"

"Why!"

"Why... sigh."

Upon recognizing Ali's identity, the village elders of Suoqian Village repeatedly asked "why," indicating that they genuinely had many questions to ask the woman who had suddenly appeared in their field of vision.

But all the questions ultimately ended with a sigh.

Because it's all useless now.

No wonder the young leader so readily agreed to the regulations that were so biased towards Suoqian Village.

It turns out they had already found an agent long ago.

Now, it's not impossible for them to use the argument that Ali's qualifications are insufficient to convince the masses and lead the entire Suoqian Village to refute the proposal.

Moreover, if this is done forcibly, it will only anger the other party and bring unpredictable consequences to Suoqian Village!

The other members of the Suoqian Village leadership also learned of Ali's identity through the explanation of another companion who knew Ali, and their expressions were incredibly varied.

Of course, the reason these guys had such an unacceptable attitude wasn't because they really disliked A-Li, but because as an ordinary ninja who had never been involved in management, being suddenly named as the person in charge by the leader of this force made them somewhat worried about the future of their lineage, fearing that the woman was merely a puppet.

"Ah Li, I suppose you heard what happened outside."

"But are you truly determined to lead, continue, and develop our lineage?"

However, the brief stalemate was quickly broken by a high-ranking official from Suoqian Village.

He withdrew from his reunion with the others and, ignoring the First Generation Demon Lord to one side, directly threw the question to the younger generation in his line of sight.

He knew very well—no, they all knew very well—that due to previous promises and their current identities, they could no longer refute the young leader's orders with conviction. Therefore, the only remaining point of entry was this junior named Ali.

As long as the other party does not accept the appointment and voluntarily gives up becoming the leader of the Kusama lineage, then it will not be considered as disobeying the will of the first generation.

Therefore, he deliberately made the responsibility sound very heavy.

Ali had never seen such a scene before.

Having lived outside the village since childhood, relying on her longing and yearning for it to survive, she is now being watched by many elders in the village, waiting for a crucial answer.

The momentum it created made his already firm will falter and become uncertain again.

Am I truly capable of settling my companions in?

Is one's own stubbornness truly more important than the village?

These are the two questions that caused him to appear confused.

"Hey, are you questioning my judgment?"

At the crucial moment, Huang spoke up at just the right time.

He tapped the table lightly, his calm voice revealing no emotion.

Upon hearing this voice, the leaders of Suoqian Village couldn't help but tremble and turn their gazes back.

They naturally knew that forcing Ali to back down was a poor strategy and would likely provoke the displeasure of the First Generation Demon Shadow.

But in order to ensure the village's continued existence, they had no choice but to take a gamble!

But ultimately, before receiving a reply from the younger generation, the intervention of that adult was drawn.

Even so, the village elder who had spoken up to Ali still straightened his back, intending to respond to the young leader's dissatisfaction with a dignified and unyielding attitude.

After all, having decided to join the Demon Hidden Village, they were already prepared to be subject to others' control, and they would not object to the other party choosing any one of them as the leader of the Lock Front lineage.

Ali was the only option outside of this.

The younger generation, who have been away from the village for a long time, cannot be sure how much they still care about the village, or whether they will prioritize the family's interests when making important decisions.

But just as he was preparing his response, the First Generation leader, who was in the main seat, spoke again:

"It's okay, I'll give you this chance."

"If Ali doesn't think he has the courage or determination to take on this position, then forget it. The next leader of the Suoqian lineage will be chosen from among you."
