"However, it was the Uchiha clan that ultimately suppressed you; you should hate them!!"
Orui continued to roar, trying to divert his hatred and find a glimmer of hope.
but,
"Oh, I was recognized."
Yuya Shiro said with some surprise, but Yu's face still showed that nonchalant look.
"Well, now that you've given your answer, goodbye."
"Feng, let's leave our heroes in this sea area."
After saying that, he slowly turned around, his gaze coldly fixed on the increasingly distant and insignificant land, the roars in his ears being banished by the passing wind.
Only after a heavy splash echoed on the deck did a helpless muttering remark rang out.
"But I can't beat him."
Chapter 415 Leave the mission of hunting down the S-rank rogue ninja to me.
"So, the mission to the border adjacent to the Land of Hot Springs..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi, seated in the main seat, paused for a moment, his sharp gaze slowly sweeping over everyone present.
This included several family heads who had remained silent throughout, as well as Matt Kai, who had been silently lip-syncing with his hands raised high, until finally they all sat at the front of the conference table.
That position opposite Hyuga Hiashi, the head of the Hyuga clan.
"Then let's leave it to Chief Huang."
He made his conclusion and, without waiting for others to offer their opinions or thoughts, began to explain his reasons.
"After all, Chief Ara passed through the Land of Hot Springs on his way back from the Land of Snow, and stayed there for a few days to rest."
"It seems that they also had some contact with the residents of that city, and even helped them drive out some thugs and evil cults with bad behavior."
"I believe that through this incident, you should have gained some understanding of that country."
"Moreover, the establishment of the [Lightning Legion] seems to have happened shortly after the departure of the Wilderness Clan Chief. Perhaps the Wilderness Clan Chief had inadvertently encountered the mastermind behind the Land of Hot Water, and was able to remain calm and composed when dealing with the situation."
Such words are undeniably meaningful, even though they don't directly name anyone.
However, this had already made the whole scene solemn.
Even the Fire Country envoy, who didn't know much about the ninja village, suddenly became tense, and his slightly trembling eyes locked onto the seemingly indifferent young man in an instant.
【Could it be! 】
Everything in the Land of Hot Water was orchestrated by them!!
When such a thought arose in his mind, it immediately caused a cold sweat to break out on his back.
However, for the sake of Daming Prefecture's dignity, he could only try his best to straighten his back and appear composed and calm.
After all, the Third Hokage is still alive, and Konoha is still alive, so there's no need to worry too much.
This is the most powerful force right now!
【only,】
The combination of the Uchiha clan and the Salamander—what a terrifying clash this would be!
[The strongest clan that dominated an era and the strongest individual that dominated a period!!]
"Of course, based on previous discussions, this operation is not entirely in line with the campaign against Kumogakure."
"It is to demonstrate Konoha's emphasis on the border and the ninjas stationed there."
"More importantly, we need to figure out the true position of the Lightning Bolts and whether, as new neighbors, they might launch an invasion against Konoha."
"And, did the one from Amegakure actually settle in the Land of Hot Springs?"
The third generation's words carried weight.
This was also the most pressing concern in the hearts of the Konoha ninja present.
Hanzo the Salamander was truly a massive shadow that swept through an entire era!
However, such a command did not receive a response from the designated person immediately.
The young man whose clothes were embroidered with a fan pattern remained silent, seemingly having no intention of accepting the task.
"What's wrong? Does Chief Huang have any objections to this assignment?"
"Or perhaps, you have some other kind of affection for the Land of Hot Springs?"
"Turn to the next room," Xiaochun asked in a sinister tone.
As she finished speaking, a malicious glint flashed in her eyes.
It's all because of this inherently evil bastard that Konoha has been pushed into such an awkward situation!
This was the first time Koharu Utatane had used the term "clan head" as a suffix for Ara Uchiha, but there was no doubt that she used such a title only to better launch an attack.
The even more explicit language used than that used against Hiruzen Sarutobi is the best evidence of this.
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere in the entire Hokage meeting room suddenly became heavy, and everyone's gaze fell on the boy.
Because Xiaochun's words practically forced a connection between Uchiha Ara and the suddenly appearing lightning bolts.
The so-called "tearing apart of face" is just one word away from being decided.
But thinking about it, it makes sense.
Uchiha Ara, who was merely passing through the Land of Hot Water, unexpectedly helped the residents of the Land of Hot Water to purge the troublemakers and evil cults entrenched in that country.
Although it aligns with the Uchiha clan's nature, it is a long-standing rule that ninjas are not allowed to directly participate in the battles between ordinary people.
What is most controversial is that just a few days after he left, a force called the "Lightning Group" was established in the Land of Hot Water.
No matter how you look at it, this seems too much of a coincidence.
When you connect this to the purge of evildoers, it's as if it's just a prelude to the smooth entry of the former!
"Consultant Xiaochun, what you said seems a bit inappropriate, doesn't it?"
In this suddenly heavy atmosphere, before the person being questioned could speak, Yamanaka Inoichi, who was sitting next to him, spoke first.
These direct questions and somber words effectively expressed his dissatisfaction.
Indeed, this was the case; his slightly furrowed brows and his undisguised stare at the person in front of him made those around him feel a strong sense of tension.
"The reason why the conflict between Konoha and Kirigakure was resolved relatively quickly three years ago, without causing a longer and more severe tug-of-war, was largely because the clan chief Ara broke the genjutsu that had been placed on the Fourth Mizukage."
"The reason why Konoha was able to gain a certain advantage in the connection with Kumogakure over the past three years, and even brought back the remains of a comrade who had not been returned for decades, is precisely because the Ara clan's elder captured Hii, a pivotal figure in Kumogakure."
"As an advisor to Konoha, you should be well aware of [His] status in Kumogakure, right? He is the right-hand man of the Fourth Raikage."
"However, despite making such great contributions to the village, Chief Huang was ultimately punished with a punishment that balanced out his merits and demerits, or even confinement for three years."
"Is this really the kind of reward and punishment system that should belong to Konoha?"
"That's rather disheartening!"
"Or does this mean that the Uchiha clan is not included among the ninjas of Konoha?"
"Is that why they don't publicize good deeds, but are quick to blame others when things go wrong?"
By the end, an invisible flame had begun to ignite in Yamanaka Inoichi's eyes.
To target a comrade who has rendered outstanding service to the village, a young man with unlimited potential, in such a way is simply going too far!
He had considered using more extreme language and making more extreme comparisons, but ultimately gave up.
The fundamental purpose is not to escalate the conflict between the two sides, but to strive for fairness and justice for the younger generation around them.
Please stay away from me.
He could never forget the words that had reached his ears on the eastern border.
Even so, even though Yamanaka Inoichi had restrained himself, his words still caused a huge uproar in the Hokage's office.
Almost all the clan heads and elite ninjas present were reflecting on and considering this matter.
It seems they were trying to find any flaw in it, after all, the Uchiha clan's arrogance and unruliness, and their evil reputation, had long been deeply ingrained in people's minds and were difficult to erase.
However, as the thought process unfolded, many people realized that such a rebuttal seemed to be true!
Regarding the younger generation that has already grown up, all the other ninja villages are eager and openly want to let the surrounding forces know about the strength of their descendants, and use it to intimidate neighboring countries.
The prodigy of Kirigakure who was blessed by the Ninja Sword, the explosions of Iwagakure that were art, the absolute defense of Sunagakure, and so on.
However, on their side, it seemed as if they were relentlessly suppressing the dominant stance of the Uchiha clan.
What Blood Asura, what Instantaneous Water?
Rushi and Rushi were never publicized within the village; their fame was only spread among hostile forces based on their battle achievements.
This shouldn't even be brought up in the first place; so-called ninjas shouldn't be a group of people seeking fame and fortune.
But the real difference lies in:
Whether it's the current Copy Ninja Kakashi Hatake, the traditional Ino-Shika-Cho trio, the legendary Sannin who have temporarily left the village, or the deceased Sakumo Hatake, the White Fang of Konoha, and Minato Namikaze, the Yellow Flash, they were all once revered and respected in the village.
Even some of the new recruits at the Ninja Academy know about legendary figures like Lady Tsunade and Lady Jiraiya.
Even Sarutobi Asuma, one of the Twelve Warriors whose fame was limited to the Land of Fire, had a little fan among the Konoha ninja.
However, the Uchiha clan, which was by no means weak, had its powerful members almost never mentioned, let alone publicized, by their own ninjas.
Yes, it might just be a rumor that someone once suppressed a genius for an entire grade at a ninja academy.
Such deep thought caused the expressions of several high-ranking officials present to change slightly.
Sitting opposite him, Nara Shikaku looked at his old friend with a strange expression. He really didn't know why this guy always seemed to lose some of his composure and rationality whenever it came to Uchiha Ara.
This is not to say that there is anything fundamentally wrong with such a statement; any impartial and discerning person can agree with it.
However, the context was somewhat inappropriate, and the language was rather direct and intense.
This could potentially cause some unnecessary trouble, or even conflict.
"One thing at a time!"
"Or is it that only Uchiha Ara contributed to the fight against the Hidden Mist Village's invasion?"
