These words made the pharmacist tremble with fear.

Regret surged uncontrollably from the depths of his heart like a tidal wave.

【if,】

If only I had been more patient back then, if only I could have overcome my resentment and despair and responded to that person's question.

So, will things change?

But time flows like water, rolling ever forward.

He can never go back to that day, that time.

Orochimaru, who had been listening to the whole thing, gradually darkened his gaze, a sense of unease welling up inside him, and his previously composed demeanor vanished.

[That Ryoma Aburame guy, it turns out he also fell for this guy!]

What else does he know?

Who exactly is this guy?!

Why is the Uchiha clan, usually so reckless and driven by emotions, so calm in the face of adversity?

This is the biggest question in his mind at this moment!

Even the Konoha ninjas who were about to surround him, even those decaying old men, could not make him panic at this moment, as none of them could make him panic over the kid in his sight.

"Oh, right."

“I also saw the one you now follow and serve in the memory of Aburame Ryoma.”

"In other words, he also knew about the mission that Yakushi Nonou was ordered to go to Iwagakure to eliminate Konoha spies."

"However, this guy didn't say or do anything."

Trampling on one's own family

Coveting their own people,

After brazenly coming to cause trouble, they expect to get away unscathed without paying any price?!

As he stared at Orochimaru, whose face was gradually darkening, Ara's gaze became increasingly provocative and sarcastic.

His response was to use their own methods against them.

If you attempt to harm those around you, then you must also be prepared for your most trusted and trusted subordinates to be alienated.

"The title 'Walking Shrine Maiden' seems to have been unheard of in the ninja world for a long time."

Huang continued to add.

These words struck like a heavy hammer, creating sparks in Kabuto's heart.

I haven't heard anything about the other party's reputation...

That's because that person is already dead!

[By my own hand.]

He slowly raised his trembling hands, his eyes filled with despair and regret.

They completely ignored the Konoha ninjas who were already approaching.

At this moment, only one thought remained in Yu Zhi's mind:

Lord Orochimaru could have stopped all of this.

But it didn't happen.

"Uchiha clan, what are you doing?!"

"Can't you tell that guy is Orochimaru, the S-rank rogue ninja wanted by the village?"

"Hurry up and capture him!"

"........."

The sounds of Konoha ninjas rushing towards them rang in their ears once more.

However, Huang remained completely still, as if he hadn't heard a thing, and continued speaking to the genius in his field of vision:

"Hey, what if one day you can't find any reason to continue existing by Orochimaru's side?"

"Then come find me."

These words made Yakushi Kabuto, who was deep in thought, suddenly look up.

A sense of confusion and helplessness welled up in his eyes.

He didn't know why the former said such a thing, after all, he had lost his usual ability to think calmly at this moment.

At the same time, a long, deep purple tongue shot through the air like a bolt of lightning and instantly wrapped around Yakushi Kabuto's waist.

Orochimaru took the initiative and forcibly took this guy away.

Huang did not interfere, but instead filled in his own words.

"I'm confident that with your abilities, you'll be able to find me."

"At that time,"

"I will give you a new meaning to your existence."

As the boy uttered his last word, Kabuto Yakushi was also swept away by that deep purple tongue.

Those dozens of kunai that were the first to break through the air and arrive, intending to sever this special ribbon, thus missed their target.

【Uchiha Arakawa!!】

Orochimaru's final glance was not directed at the Third Hokage, whom he had hoped to eliminate, but rather landed squarely on Ara.

How dare you do this!

So, let's see who has the last laugh!

Chapter 496 details the crimes committed, highlighting the growing rift between the Uchiha clan and Konoha.

Orochimaru eventually managed to escape.

This was thanks to the fact that during his collaboration with Shimura Danzo, he used his position within the Root organization to leave behind 'secret doors' in many places in the village for himself to enter and exit.

Furthermore, the 'secret code' of Konoha's barrier has never changed over the years, which has allowed that slippery, smelly snake to move freely as if it were in an empty field, with no one in the entire village able to stop it.

All they could do was watch him walk away gracefully, and in vain, they dispatched several tracking ninjas in the hope of following his trail and bringing him to justice.

However, Orochimaru was not captured on the spot.

However, given the severity of this egregious incident and the uncertainty surrounding its aftermath, someone must be held accountable!

This criticism naturally fell on the Uchiha clan.

Because this was a family that had made contact with the other party in full view of everyone, and if the other party had really tried their best to stop them, Orochimaru would probably have been killed by now!

"Uchiha Ara, what exactly do you want to do?"

"Earlier, he allowed his clansmen to indiscriminately kill elite members of the Anbu, and now he is colluding with S-rank rogue ninjas who have already fled the village."

"So, they also want to rebel against Konoha?!"

Against the backdrop of hundreds of Konoha ninjas pressing into the Uchiha clan's territory, Sarutobi Shinga stepped forward, his eyes wide with anger, and questioned the person in his field of vision in a rough voice.

Moreover, this extreme wording clearly shows a complete lack of consideration for the other party.

The Third Hokage did not reprimand the boy for his attitude, but stood quietly in the crowd watching the boy who had caused him endless trouble.

It's a pity that the morning's plan didn't work out.

But now, perhaps there is still a chance.

The envoy from Sunagakure was also absent.

Thinking of this, Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes grew increasingly dark, and his tightly pursed lips seemed to be practicing a silent meditation.

Sarutobi Shinga's words immediately caused a huge uproar throughout the entire area.

After all, the Konoha ninjas who arrived had indeed witnessed firsthand the Uchiha clan's inaction regarding Orochimaru's escape.

If this clan really joins forces with that dangerous S-rank rogue ninja here, then things will be very serious, and we must take precautions!

Furthermore, this entire clan must be imprisoned, and it is even necessary to eliminate the clan's leader!

Suddenly, the atmosphere of the entire situation plummeted to freezing point, and the Uchiha clan was once again pushed to the opposite side of the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

Moreover, this time, even more Konoha ninjas have gathered.

Compared to the 44th Training Grounds, which are completely far from Konoha City, the Uchiha clan's territory is relatively close.

The noises, especially those made in the dead of night, are even more clearly identifiable.

"How dare you insult my clan patriarch!"

"you wanna die!!"

An undisguised hostility emanated from the entire Uchiha clan, and pairs of captivating crimson eyes were revealed.

This scene not only made Sarutobi Shinga feel a sudden chill, but also most of the people present!

This scene reminded them of the Uchiha clan of the past, taking them back to a time before the clan's decline!

At this moment, what shocked them was not only the intimidation and power brought by the Sharingan.

I was deeply moved by the will shown by this tribe and their support for their chieftain!

Five years,

Only five years have passed since that catastrophic event.

It's truly hard to imagine what this clan will look like when the next five years arrive, when these young people, whose faces still retain a touch of naivety, have fully grown up!

"How dare you act like this in front of the Third Hokage!"

"As expected, they have ulterior motives!"

Paying attention to everything in his field of vision and suppressing the palpitations in his heart as he felt stared at by dozens of Sharingan eyes, Sarutobi Shinga raised his voice by another decibel.

That indignant voice once again severed the last remaining, shallow bond between the Uchiha and Konoha.
