I unleashed a Hundred Demons Parade in the Ninja World

For example, the place where the flames were engulfed was marked with a neatly written character for "fire" in an ancient script.

This is!

If someone with an exceptional understanding of Konoha's terrain, power distribution, and clan influence were here at this moment, he would surely be astonished!

Because everything painted on the canvas is a one-to-one replica of the current state of Konoha Village, isn't it?

The surging heat and the ceaseless sounds of wind and fire here are like a clear signal, from the very beginning of this small place.

The unusual appearance on the rooftop did not attract much attention.

The Uchiha clan members, who were not far away, remained in a devout kneeling posture, without the slightest distraction.

The reason is that the place where the minor incident occurred is a forbidden zone personally designated by their clan chief. Unless there is an emergency or urgent message, no one will disturb the girl living there.

The only one who truly cares about all of this is probably Huang.

However, his mind was immediately overwhelmed by the fervent vow made the next moment.

"Yes!"

"I am willing to offer my will, my soul, and this still-beating heart to the clan chief."

【Good】：The Uchiha clan's hope for 【change】.

【Good】：The loyalty of the Uchiha clan, the faith of the Uchiha clan.

"Well,"

"Let me see what you're capable of."

"Each of you choose your favorite ninjutsu, and wait for me here a month from now."

"If by then you haven't even mastered a decent forbidden technique or a coherent combination of ninjutsu, then there's no point in coming here."

Huang compromised.

A scroll of ninjutsu techniques then slipped into his palm.

This document contains records of sealing ninjutsu, excluding highly dangerous or morally questionable techniques such as the Reaper Death Seal and the Impure World Reincarnation, as well as combination ninjutsu developed by the Konoha Anbu.

Such things are meant to be left behind for those who do not wish to leave on the day of departure.

But now it seems that it is no longer needed.

Faith and Loyalty

These two weighty words are enough to explain everything.

of course,

Such a response does not necessarily represent a complete compromise.

Aside from a month-long training and testing period, going on missions is impossible.

As long as he remains the patriarch of this clan,

As long as he remains here, he will not allow any of his clansmen to die outside, to perish under the machinations of those old foxes!

This is also the most fundamental difference between him and his predecessor, Uchiha Fugaku.

That bastard, for the sake of continuing the lives of his two children, was willing to abandon his entire family and the lives of himself and his wife.

But desolation is not an option.

Protect this family before you leave.

This is not only his promise to Uchiha Naki, Shingan, and Rinka, but also the promise he made to Shisui in front of the Naga Falls!

Even if it means death,

These guys will die right before my eyes, die by my own hands!

Instead of being manipulated by those old foxes and dissected into cold experimental subjects by those ambitious individuals!

Therefore,

【Secret Realm: Lord of Tears Mountain】 is the trial that Huang prepared for them.

of course,

That person who swore to curse gods, Buddhas, and the world, yet fell from grace as a demon despite being an absolute human genius, becoming the master of Tears-Eye Mountain—Meiwaru.

It is its own prey.

His swordsmanship has not improved for a long time.

And Umewakamaru, who became famous for his swordsmanship at the age of ten—oh, now that guy should be called a monster, Ushioni—is the best whetstone for Ara at this moment.

"Yes!"

Ears

Reflecting on the firm response.

The unwavering conviction and fervor contained within seemed capable of dispelling the heavy gloom that had long oppressed this race.

"Let's go."

After tossing the scroll to Uchiha Naki, who was catching it with both hands, he uttered his final words and vanished from the spot, leaving only a chorus of echoes in the surrounding area.

.........

Looking at the figure standing in sight,

A subtle, meaningful smile quietly appeared at the corner of Kurama Yakumo's eyes.

Just a moment ago he was standing before his people.

Now, it has inexplicably appeared at the entrance to the clan's territory.

In the end, you're just worried about me, aren't you?

The answer to her fleeting thoughts came in an instant.

As the little princess of the Kurama clan, she naturally possesses a keen eye and insight that are no less than those of others.

However, even though a complex and meaningful sigh rose in his heart, he did not show any dissatisfaction or other emotions on his face.

She still greeted everyone with a smile.

after all,

Her surname is Kurama, not Uchiha.

Famous sayings like "Those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts" are perfectly clear to people from large ninja villages and ancient clans.

During these days, he saw far too many things that shouldn't have happened in this slowly recovering family, things that could even be described as death-inducing.

especially,

The boy, who is about the same age as her, holds a tremendous secret!

"Eh."

"Chief Huang, did you come to remind me of something?"

As her thoughts settled, the girl slowly raised her slender hand and tucked the strands of hair that had fallen over her shoulder behind her ear, instantly revealing her soft, fair, and delicate face.

"Yes, these are the pills for this month."

Huang responded softly, and Yu Zhi produced a transparent glass bottle containing dozens of pills of different colors, with red ones making up half of the bottle.

As he spoke, he casually tossed the object toward the girl with whom he had made a contract.

Hearing this,

Kurama Yakumo's expression changed slightly, and he subconsciously raised his hands to catch the glass vessel steadily.

He had assumed that at such a sensitive moment, the other party would begin with a request, an agreement, or a warning.

But to his surprise, the young man's opening remarks were based on the promise he had once made.

This scene involuntarily reminded him of the past, of their first meeting at the Konoha Hospital.

At that time, she was just an innocent little girl, full of curiosity about the world.

Despite recklessly exposing the other party's hidden secret and despite the vast disparity in power, the other party still chose to take the initiative to make a deal with him.

Whether it's to improve his inherently weak physique or to erase the [Idu] that grew deep within his spiritual world due to his obsession.

So it is, so it is!

These were wishes she had longed for for years but had not been fulfilled. The only agreement she made was to keep the secret that she had revealed out of curiosity.

However, there is one thing to know...

For a ninja, no, for anyone, there is only one best way to silence someone who has discovered their secrets:

That is to turn the other person into a corpse that can never speak!

but,

He didn't.

[Idiot, that's fouling.]

[It will affect my judgment.]

A different kind of emotion flickered in her gentle eyes, but Yakumo Kurama still accepted the special pill as instructed.

Because such things are extremely important to her now, and to the chaotic future that is about to unfold.

Even after four years, when the body has developed a certain tolerance to the drug, the improvement brought by a single pill is far less than that at the beginning.

But even so,

It is that subtle improvement, the very thing that Yakumo Kurama had longed for day and night!

It is because of the prayers and expectations of the past that he now cherishes every bit of strength.

This was also what she promised Idu, the dark self that had emerged during countless nights of despair.

Become stronger

Then, in response to the hopes of his people,

To protect and revitalize the long-dormant saddle horse clan.
