I unleashed a Hundred Demons Parade in the Ninja World

It made breathing and panting extremely difficult.

Following this line of thought,

It seems that the wrong one is not that clan.

Rather, it is the one who commands that race to do what it wants, forcing that race to constantly retreat.

However, Fugaku Uchiha's forbearance, compromise, and suppression of the clan did not make others truly feel this.

However, the current chieftain of the Wilderness Clan has abandoned all patience and put his clansmen first!

Therefore,

Therefore, under this terrifying pressure and the oppressive force, he was able to reflect and seek the root cause of the problem.

"I will report your wishes to the Third Hokage."

After a long silence, the elephant finally spoke.

This time, however, the sharpness and coldness in his gaze toward the two people in front of him had faded considerably, and even the tone of his voice had become somewhat gentler.

Upon receiving such a reply and sensing the sudden change in attitude of their former captain, Tong Yue and Li, who had decided to leave the department, felt a sense of relief.

A complex emotion flickered in those eyes that had been filled with discontent: relief, gratitude, reluctance, and guilt.

Whatever the reason they made this decision

But in the end,

This is retreat, this is escape, this is betraying the oath made when entering the Dark Division.

"Thank you, I'm sorry to have troubled you, Captain [Elephant]."

Tong Yue's voice gradually softened, and a sense of gratitude welled up as he thanked her.

"However, you shall stay here obediently until I have informed the Third Hokage and reassigned your identities and missions."

"I think you haven't forgotten the rules of the Dark Division."

[Image] The chaotic mind is quickly calmed down.

The slightly softer voice was replaced by indifference.

He was the head of the secret service.

In the end, I put aside any inappropriate thoughts and ideas and chose to believe that the Hokage must have had his own profound reasons for doing this.

It's just that he and the other ANBU ninjas were too short-sighted and hadn't been able to truly see through that person's intentions.

Ultimately,

The current Third Hokage is hailed as the strongest fire-wielding being in history. He is also the powerful leader of Konoha who, despite being surrounded by the four major forces of Sunagakure, Iwagakure, Kumogakure, and Kirigakure, still possesses a burning will of fire and remains at the pinnacle of the Hidden Leaf Village!

Trust, support, and obedience.

This is what he wants to do.

As for those with differing wills, they can no longer be called companions.

"Since you've decided to leave, then remove your equipment and return your codenames and masks."

The will of the elephant grows ever stronger, and its words return to their coldness.

"Yes,"

“We understand,”

"I will definitely not cause any more trouble for the captain."

Tong Yue answered on behalf of Li, a genuine sense of melancholy and loneliness evident in his voice.

The arm that had been hanging down at the knees slowly rose at this moment, and the fingers that had been holding the edge of the mask paused for a long time before finally removing the highly symbolic mask.

"Watch them."

After glancing once more at the two familiar yet unfamiliar faces before him, [Elephant] gave the order and passed through the doorway of the Dark Division's rest room.

At the same time,

In the brightly lit Hokage's office.

"Tonight is quite lively. Could this be the kind of 'Shadow' technique you were talking about?"

The oppressive atmosphere was broken by a playful rhetorical question.

Without a doubt, that's the voice of Shimura Danzo. He would never let go of any opportunity to strike at his old friend!

Of course, there was nothing wrong with what he said.

The loss of two ANBU ninjas is a painful loss no matter which ninja village it is.

After all, they are the elites, one in a hundred!

They are 'martyrs' whom the village has painstakingly trained, capable of sacrificing their lives for the greater good and for the village.

However, now, because of a ridiculous farce, two people have been directly lost, and he has also been labeled as a spy. Such a thing can be easily fooled by ordinary Konoha ninjas.

However, it was impossible to hide it from the old fox, Danzo Shimura!

Because his roots are also monitoring every move of the entire Leaf Village.

He saw the farce that was unfolding tonight very clearly.

Hearing this,

Hiruzen Sarutobi did not respond.

At this moment, the old man looked very unwell. His wrinkles, gray hair, and the marks of time made him look quite old and frail.

but,

This was definitely not due to Danzo Shimura's sarcastic or mocking remarks.

Rather, it is a genuine feeling of pain and powerlessness caused by the events of tonight.

Broken portals can be rebuilt.

Lost face can be regained.

but,

How can the elite members of the Dark Guard, unwilling to die, be revived?

How can we regain that lost longing in our hearts?

He sensed it.

I sensed a sense of confusion and sorrow among those elite members of the secret service who should have unconditionally supported, trusted, and followed my will as they retreated and dispersed.

This situation has never occurred before!

In contrast to this low mood and low morale,

It was that group of young men and women who followed Uchiha Ara.

The crimson three-tomoe gem blooming in the dark night, the powerful bloodline limit symbolizing an infinite future, the surging will that intertwines fanaticism, trust, and faith!

Hiruzen Sarutobi dared not even think about how far that clan would climb from the bottomless abyss if another five years passed!

but,

There is still a chance.

if only,

Eradicate him!

Everything will return to normal, and the will and faith that the race had just formed will vanish completely!

"You are still too kind, Hiruzen."

"You should have listened to my advice and used his clan as a threat while that kid was away from the ninja village!"

The one-eyed old man, leaning on his cane, tapped the ground lightly, his voice carrying an added air of force, and each dull thud was an expression of his dissatisfaction.

"no!"

However, before such advice could even be uttered, it was met with a fierce and direct rebuttal from Hiruzen Sarutobi!

This rebuttal caused Danzo Shimura to pause slightly in surprise.

He seemed to have never seen this old fox display such turbulent emotions in a long time.

This crazy behavior is starting to seem less and less like something out of Naruto.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi made no attempt to conceal his loss of composure or offer any explanation for the astonishment on the face of the person in his sight. Instead, he uttered his command, word by word:

"No one is allowed to lay a hand on the Uchiha clan without my order."

"including you!"

"understand?"

Upon hearing these words, Danzo Shimura's expression darkened and turned cold.

Ah,

I remembered,

He remembered,

Why did this old man suddenly seem like a completely different person, suddenly erupting with such a huge emotional outburst?

Because his precious grandson was used as a bargaining chip in front of everyone, and witnessed by countless ninjas!

【Oh,】

[A decaying old thing, a selfish old fellow.]

For the sake of Konoha's prosperity and long-term peace, you're unwilling to even abandon a mischievous little brat?
