"Hey, the ninjas of Kumogakure really have the same nature as our own 'Kage'—shameless. If they want to gain the respect they deserve, they should first watch their words and actions."

"But you guys aren't worthy to talk to me like that. Get lost."

After uttering his rebuke, Jiraiya angrily walked towards the interior of Konoha.

"It's really unlucky to run into this kind of person while just taking a walk."

The torrential rain did nothing to drown out his indignant complaints, and he had no reason to give a friendly look to anyone who came to cause trouble at this time.

Because this is the day when the Konoha ninja who died on the eastern border can rest in peace!

"If you have no intention of visiting, then please leave."

Izumo Kamui extended his left hand, pointing directly at the wide road in front of Konoha's gate. Of course, he couldn't be as unrestrained and direct as Jiraiya, so he still gave him some face.

"Hmph, lead the way."

In response, Atsi, his face ashen, suppressed his emotions and growled.

As the other party said, if he didn't even get to see the Hokage or personally convey the Raikage's will on this trip, then no matter what the final outcome was, it would be a failed mission.

However, it's really unlucky to run into one of the three ninjas here.

"Follow me, and please do not wander around after entering the village."

"Otherwise, it will be considered that there are other motives."

Izumo Kamitsu no longer had his initial good temper; his words were cold, but he still maintained a degree of rational restraint and did not directly use the sharpest or most direct words.

Ultimately, he did not have the same status and strength as Jiraiya.

"Hey, have you heard? The Cloud Village delegation has arrived."

"What? They've already arrived? And of all times, today? Are they trying to imply something?"

"Yes, I heard that Kumogakure made two requests, one for Hiki and the other for Uchiha Ara."

"As expected, it's that evil Ara again, the one who caused all this trouble! That guy is a jinx reincarnated. It's good that we agreed, Konoha absolutely cannot sacrifice more comrades for him alone!!"

"Let's all petition our respective clan leaders and the Hokage, so that the higher-ups can hear our will and our pleas!!"

News of the arrival of the Cloud Village delegation spread quickly, along with their arrogant demands and threatening declarations.

And such news seems to spread faster than expected.

In an instant, the name Uchiha Ara was once again pushed to the forefront of the surrounding discussions. Even the occasional comments about the Cloud Village ninja being too arrogant were quickly drowned out by the former message.

Even at the entrance to the Uchiha clan's territory, radical troublemakers gathered, their clamor essentially saying that Uchiha Ara should bear the consequences of his actions alone, and that Konoha should not be implicated further.

Some even went so far as to cite the Hyuga clan as an example, demanding that the perpetrators of this incident commit suicide to atone for their sins and appease the anger of the Hidden Cloud Village.

The Uchiha clan remained silent in the face of all this from the outside world, offering no response or rebuttal; all their emotions seemed to be suppressed.

Similarly, the higher-ups in Konoha have not released any information to the public. The only known fact is that the lights in the reception room of the Hokage Building were kept on all night.

Anger, rejection, fear, panic—all the negative emotions of the Konoha residents were condensed and sublimated to their extreme during this long night.

The calls to abandon Uchiha Ara reached their peak after that night.

After all, if war breaks out again, it will be a heavy blow to the entire Hidden Leaf Village, especially since the reason for the war is still to protect that evil family and that one person!

This,

Not worth it at all!!

The following morning, the arrival of an ANBU member shattered the Uchiha clan's deathly still territory, which had been like a quagmire.

"No outsiders allowed."

Uchiha Shingen and Lin Huo, who were guarding the entrance to the clan's territory, immediately spoke up to stop them, and their tone showed no harmony as ninjas of the same faction.

Upon hearing this, the ninja wearing a white mask stopped as instructed, but also spoke directly: "By order of the Third Hokage, I request that Clan Chief Ara be invited to discuss important matters."

"I see."

"You can leave now."

Uchiha Rinka responded coldly.

They will stay here to block all communication and prevent their clan leader from facing everything alone!

Their clan leader doesn't need to rely on Konoha; they will protect him themselves!

and,

This was not the will of either of them.

Rather, it is the will of a race!

"Humph."

Seeing that the two men made no attempt to go in and announce their arrival, the newcomer scoffed, clearly having seen through their little trick.

"You may choose not to report it, but the Uchiha clan will bear the consequences."

The cold declaration fell, and the secret service personnel who came to report also turned to leave.

But at this moment,

"So, is the Anbu prepared to bear the consequences of threatening my Uchiha clan?"

The cold words are like the biting winter wind, chilling and terrifying.

The direct threat caused the newcomer to turn around. A young man dressed in a dark blue short-sleeved shirt with bandages wrapped around his arms walked out slowly, surrounded by many members of his clan.

'This guy is Uchiha Ara.'

The thought unconsciously arose in his mind, but when he met the other party's cold gaze, even though he had carried out nearly a hundred missions, he couldn't help but tremble.

That chilling killing intent was something that even the most senior members of the Dark Guard could hardly match!

go away.

leave!

Under such intense scrutiny, only these words echoed in his heart!

"Lord Patriarch!"

At the same time, Lin Huo and Xin Yan shouted, but their anxious and frustrated gazes fell on Nai Shu and the other clansmen who were following Yu Huang.

We clearly agreed that they would keep an eye on and protect the clan leader, so how could this happen?

"Since Chief Huang is already aware of this, then I shall take my leave."

The ANBU ninja who delivered the message followed his own will, quickly said a few words, and immediately retreated, after all, the other party's fearsome reputation was too great.

Continuing to stay or argue could put themselves in danger.

After all, this is a family of madmen, and this young patriarch is no exception!

"I don't want to see this happen again in the future."

"The Uchiha clan is known for its courage and responsibility."

After the Dark Guard left, Ara walked straight between the Forest Fire and Shin'en.

"Yes, but Chieftain, please allow us to follow you..."

Uchiha Rinho responded unwillingly, but he didn't finish his sentence.

"Everyone,"

With his back to all his people, he raised his voice and called out, gathering his bewildered and worried thoughts.

The gazes that followed him also gradually hardened under such a call.

"wait me back."

He said.

"Yes, Chieftain!!"

Chapter 230 Farewell to the Gods: The Roots are Your Best Home!

Defection?

【obedience?】

Or should we argue our case based on reason?

All night long, these three options went over and over in Huang's mind.

He really hates involving other unrelated people in his affairs unless he is driven to a dead end or subjected to unjustified oppression.

Therefore, the seemingly most rational and correct choice, which was argued on reason, was the first to be rejected.

After all, the fundamental reason why Kirigakure made demands and started the war was because of Obito Uchiha's meddling. Even without my involvement, the conflict between the two sides was destined to continue.

The reason why Yunyin came to visit this time was indeed because of him.

On the eastern border, facing a terrifying lineup of the Fourth Raikage, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, and the Two-Tails Jinchuriki, and knowing that there would be little chance of further reinforcements, as well as the unstable cooperation with Kirigakure.

The only way he could think of to break the deadlock was to bewitch the Eight-Tails, Gyuki, and send him to the Land of Lightning to cause chaos among the tailed beasts, thereby distracting the Fourth Raikage.

Otherwise, with only Jiraiya remaining in the battle, Konoha's collapse was only a matter of time.

Defection?

This was something Huang had been planning ever since the night of the annihilation.

Starting from places with little attention, such as the Uzumaki Clan, the Lightning Brigade, powerful summoning beasts, and the bloodline limit users of Rich Man Island, they eventually settled in a corner and gained some fame, such as Amegakure, Hoshigakure, and the Ninja Swordsmen.

Putting aside certain limitations, the power he currently wields is enough to wage a direct war against any ninja village, and a war that would inflict significant pain on the opponent!

but,

Most of these forces have their own limiting factors:

First, Amegakure, with its strongest foundation, was held back by Akatsuki, and Pain was constantly watching the every move of its leader, Hanzo of the Salamander. If they wanted to make any significant moves, they would first have to face Akatsuki's targeting.

Undoubtedly targeting them!

Secondly, a major upheaval had just occurred within Hoshikage Village. Before the Moon Chaser could truly become the faith of this ninja village, the newly appointed Natsumi did not have the prestige to lead all the members to come and support them.

All things considered, the only combat force that Ara can currently utilize are the bloodline limiters led by Chino and the nascent ninja swordsmen.
