I unleashed a Hundred Demons Parade in the Ninja World

"These are all forces that we have cooperated with and had mission exchanges with!!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi meticulously recounted the origins of each letter, his expression growing increasingly grave.

This neighboring country, with which they formed an alliance, has truly not given up its covetousness towards them!

"Is that guy Rasa trying to use Uchiha Ara and the Uchiha clan's reputation to prove himself as the genius known as 'Absolute Defense' in this Chunin Exams?"

Upon hearing this, Koharu's expression immediately became complicated and unpleasant.

However, she still tried her best to think and speculate in a positive direction.

After all, if they want a peaceful era and for Sunagakure's reputation to surpass that of Konoha, then the only way is to have their own geniuses surpass the geniuses of other countries.

However, if other participating forces only send in some mediocre talents and hide the truly renowned geniuses...

So even if you win the final victory, it won't mean much.

"If that's all there is to it, then it's actually quite good."

Hiruzen Sarutobi had certainly considered this possibility long ago, but how could this explain the large army of Sunagakure stationed on the border?

No, it's not just Sunagakure now; even the Lightning Brigade stationed in the Land of Hot Water has made similar moves.

Such a connection is far too ambiguous!

"I'm afraid the Sand Village might be trying to use this to join forces with the Uchiha clan and cause some big commotion!!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice was cold.

A sense of unease and dread permeated the entire office.

The atmosphere was so intense that both of the consultants present couldn't help but swallow.

"Then let's refuse."

"I hereby refuse to participate, citing Uchiha Ara's own unwillingness!"

Koharu Utatane was hesitant to consider the worst-case scenario. If something terrible happened to Konoha during her time as an assistant, how could she face the Second Hokage again?

"Moreover, the first round of written tests has already concluded."

"With these two reasons in response, other forces will likely have nothing more to say!"

As she spoke, the embarrassment and panic on Yu Zhi's face gradually subsided.

In her opinion, a direct refusal is the best approach.

"Then, Sunagakure can also achieve another goal: to win the final victory in this Chunin Exams and use this incident to put pressure on Konoha."

Mitokado Yan was not as optimistic as his old friend.

Instead, they poured a bucket of cold water on it.

“Even at that time, Rasa can still send people to contact Uchiha Ara.”

"Moreover, if Sunagakure were to approach that clan as the victor, the final outcome would be far more interesting than it is now."

He tapped lightly on the frame of his glasses, which had slipped down due to sweat, and continued to speculate, making the sweat on his forehead even more noticeable.

"Then why not just win this Chunin Exams?"

"Hyuga Neji of the Hyuga clan, I remember his name was on the list of those who passed the first written exam!"

"Isn't he considered a rare genius by the Hyuga clan? He's even a year older than that kid from Sunagakure!"

"Could we possibly lose?"

"In Kakashi Hatake's team, isn't there a genin named Sasuke Uchiha? As Itachi Uchiha's younger brother, it's impossible that he didn't even inherit half of its talent!!"

"Aren't these two geniuses who have emerged in Konoha in the last two years? Didn't they both graduate as the top students of their grade?"

"And what about the Aburame clan, the Yamanaka clan, and the Nara and Akimichi clans? Didn't they all have members who passed the first written test?"

"It's not like we have no one else to offer besides Uchiha Ara!"

Koharu's mood was very strange; in fact, it could be described as somewhat hysterical.

Even the way he spoke and his attitude seemed somewhat disorganized.

She would never accept placing the future of Konoha, the hope for Konoha's continued prosperity, on that person or that clan!

"But, that boy named Gaara from Sunagakure."

"It's very likely that thing!"

However, when faced with his old friend's insatiable desire to list them all, Hiruzen Sarutobi broke her frenzy with just one sentence.

"That thing?"

What is it?

After a long while, Koharu finally answered in a trembling voice.

"One-tail Jinchuriki."

A minimalist voice rang out, but it wasn't the Third Hokage who answered; it was Mitokado Homura.

In fact, the former must have guessed the person's identity, but he was just afraid and unwilling to face it directly.

"Then what do we do?"

Koharu's voice suddenly became somewhat helpless. The neighboring Sunagakure Village had already unknowingly gained control over the power of the Tailed Beasts, but her own vessel was still acting like a naughty child.

Such a gap cannot be changed by mere imagination or by shouting slogans.

"Then so be it."

"Do you really think the Uchiha clan are genuine partners you can cooperate with?"

"Ah."

With a cold snort, a strong sense of ferocity surged in Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes.

The Uchiha clan, including Shisui and Itachi, as well as Madara Uchiha in history, have proven that this clan are creatures extremely driven by emotions and cannot be easily trusted!

Cooperating with them is tantamount to dancing with wolves.

"You can leave Konoha now and go to the Daimyo's residence in the Land of Fire. Leave this place to me. Come back if everything is alright after the Chunin Exams."

"The purest will of Konoha must not be broken."

Then he spoke to the two old friends in his field of vision.

The commanding tone in their words left no room for refusal.

Chapter 467 This is the problem between me, my family, and your lineage!

"What do you mean by this, Hiruzen!"

Upon hearing the Third Hokage's order, Koharu Utatane's heart suddenly tightened.

Being caught in this situation, coupled with these words, it clearly feels like someone is entrusting their child to another!

However, it's just a joint Chunin Exam right now. Even if the Uchiha clan participates, what kind of waves can they make?

At most, it's just a way for visitors to witness the resurgence of this clan.

But this is still far from the time to panic. The power that the Uchiha clan possesses now is far less than one-tenth of what it was during Fugaku's reign.

With such a weak force, would he dare to rise up in rebellion and shake the will of Konoha in full view of everyone and with the arrival of various forces?

Even if they succeed, let alone whether they can succeed, how will they gain a foothold in the ninja world in the future?

In the past, the little snake that ran away from the village also carried the highly symbolic name of the 'Three Legendary Sannin of Konoha'.

But now?

Who knows where they're hiding in some nook or cranny!

Bearing the name of a traitorous ninja, apart from those madmen who disregard the cost and consequences, no power is willing to hire or accept them.

Because everyone is worried about being bitten back by these villains.

To wash away the name of this traitorous ninja, unless... unless...

In a brief moment of reflection, Koharu Utatane seemed to realize something, and her aged eyes, surrounded by wrinkles, revealed a deep disbelief.

unless,

A change of dynasty!

However, the power accumulated by that clan was insufficient to accomplish all of this.

Then all that's left is to find partners to work together from the inside out!

And now there is such a perfect partner!

Sunagakure, one of the Five Great Ninja Villages.

"Impossible, impossible!"

"Would the proud Uchiha clan submit to others?"

"The Sand Village, an ally of Konoha, has chosen to betray its promise?"

Xiaochun, who was switching dorm rooms, frantically denied it, unable to contain her panicked emotions.

Frantically denying it!

She was unwilling to accept this reality, because if it came true, the entire Hidden Leaf Village would be plunged into utter ruin!

"Xiaochun, you've really gotten old."

"The courage they once had is gone."

Looking at his old friend who only knew how to shout and refused to face reality, Hiruzen Sarutobi no longer felt the anger he had before; instead, he could only sigh softly.

"There are never any permanent allies in the ninja world, only interests."

“We can communicate with Onoki and unite with Iwagakure. So we should expect that the Uchiha clan will make contact with Rasa, or even form a secret alliance with Sunagakure.”

The white-haired third generation leader spoke slowly.

The sharpness and strategic brilliance of the past are no longer visible in Yu Zhi's voice; only melancholy and dejection remain.

His hand was almost empty; the last thing he could do was try to save some people connected to him.
