The streets and alleys are no longer bustling and prosperous as they used to be; instead, people's faces are filled with worry and unease.

Many people still feel lingering fear when they recall yesterday's battle.

It was like a catastrophe, and although there were no reports of casualties, its destructive power was enough to instill fear in anyone.

Especially the nobles, they might not be worried that the ninjas would attack them, but the fear of being affected made them flee Konoha overnight.

The names of the five great powers have long since disappeared.

The Chunin Exam venue was completely empty at that moment.

The venue, which was packed yesterday, is deserted today.

The four actors stood alone in the stands, as if waiting for something.

Yosuke Senju entered the examination room, just about to announce that the exam would continue.

Ohnoki suddenly spoke up:

"Hokage, your contestants don't need to participate."

His voice was calm, or rather, too calm.

Mito Uzumaki frowned upon hearing this and glanced at him with some surprise.

She didn't understand why Onoki would suddenly make such a request.

After all, the strength that Uchiha Seiryu displayed yesterday was undeniable.

This ability to sweep across the world, can it not make them wary?

Fortunately, Raikage spoke up and answered her question.

"Konoha's first place this time is something that several countries unanimously agree on."

His voice revealed a sense of helplessness.

It turns out that they weren't unafraid of Uchiha Seiryu's strength, but rather made a compromise after careful consideration.

This decision was undoubtedly a huge concession for them.

But they knew in their hearts that the power of the Uchiha Seiryu had exceeded their imagination, and even made them feel desperate.

Especially Onoki, who witnessed Uchiha Seiryu slaying Uchiha Madara with a single strike yesterday.

At that moment, his eyes nearly bulged out, his heart filled with shock and fear.

He understood that this power was simply beyond their ability to resist.

Therefore, after discussing with the other Kage, they made a difficult decision—to give the first place to Konoha.

This decision was undoubtedly a huge blow to them.

But they also understand that this is reality, an unchangeable fact.

Mito Uzumaki realized at this moment that they weren't fearless; they had simply given in.

This is good news for Konoha.

But just as Mito Uzumaki was relaxing and preparing to continue watching the Chunin Exams, a ninja in an Anbu uniform suddenly appeared in her line of sight.

He glanced around, his gaze lingering briefly on the other figures, appearing somewhat hesitant.

When Mito Uzumaki saw him, her expression changed slightly, as if she had sensed something.

She recognized the ANBU member; he was a ninja she had specially arranged to handle intelligence about the Land of Whirlpools.

Without hesitation, she stood up and led the member of the secret service to a relatively quiet place for a more in-depth conversation.

The other three figures merely glanced at it briefly before refocusing their attention on the examination hall.

They knew they couldn't and wouldn't interfere with what happened in Konoha, so instead of speculating and worrying, they decided to just continue watching the match.

On the other side, the ANBU immediately spoke as soon as they reached a quiet place:

"Lord Hokage, an urgent distress call has been sent from the Land of Whirlpools."

"It's Kirigakure attacking them, and the Third Mizukage led Kirigakure's reinforcements to join the battle today!"

Mito Uzumaki listened, somewhat dazed.

What does it mean that the Third Mizukage joined the battle?

Wasn't he controlled by Madara Uchiha before attacking Konoha?

Why did they suddenly decide to attack the Land of Whirlpools again?

Could it be that the Third Mizukage has been controlled by Madara Uchiha again?

A whole host of questions flooded her mind instantly, making her feel uneasy.

After all, she had kindly let the Third Mizukage go yesterday, and even helped him break free from the genjutsu.

Today, the Third Mizukage is leading his people to attack his hometown.

This scene was somewhat difficult for even this strong woman from the Warring States period to accept.

However, she quickly calmed down.

She had actually made preparations for the Land of Whirlpools long ago.

Although I didn't expect Madara Uchiha to still be alive, as long as it wasn't him who attacked the Land of Whirlpools.

The previous preparations were sufficient to handle the situation; there was no need to trouble Uchiha Seiryu.

But Madara Uchiha is still a threat, so she decided to listen to Hoshiryu's opinion.

So she went home and found Uchiha Seiryu still sleeping.

Chapter 105 The Future Changes of Konoha

Mito Uzumaki stared silently at the sleeping Uchiha Seiryu before her, speechless for a moment.

But now is not the time to worry about that.

She gently patted Xingliu's shoulder, trying to wake him up.

Sensing someone calling him, Xingliu opened his eyes groggily, his gaze still slightly dazed.

However, when he saw Mito Uzumaki's slightly anxious expression, his sleepiness vanished instantly, replaced by vigilance and doubt.

"What happened?"

Xingliu's voice was slightly hoarse.

Mito Uzumaki nodded, and said solemnly:

"That's right. The Anbu sent a letter saying that the Land of Whirlpools was attacked by the Hidden Mist Village, and even the Mizukage was involved."

Her tone revealed anger and dissatisfaction, clearly indicating that she was very unhappy with the Third Mizukage's actions.

Xingliu frowned, a flash of surprise and doubt crossing his eyes.

He also found it somewhat difficult to understand why the Third Mizukage had become involved in the crisis in the Land of Whirlpools.

After a moment of contemplation, he spoke:

"There might be some inside information about this that we don't know, so I'll go, just in case."

Mito Uzumaki nodded slightly upon hearing this, indicating her agreement with his view.

However, a hint of worry appeared on her face as she spoke:

“I originally wanted you to go, Xingliu, but Madara Uchiha might have his eye on you. If you go now, not only will you be in danger, but Tsunade and the others might also be in danger.”

Hearing this, Uchiha Seiryu smiled calmly, shook his head, and said:

“It’s alright. Yesterday, Madara Uchiha didn’t even dare to fight before running away. He must have something much more important than me that makes him have to protect his own safety.”

Xingliu knew perfectly well that the reason why Uchiha Madara had come forward to plan this operation was entirely because he had displayed overwhelming strength when he eliminated White Zetsu.

This made Madara Uchiha worry that someone might sabotage his meticulously planned Eye of the Moon scheme.

Judging from his kidnapping of Tsunade and others, it is clear that he wanted Xingliu to replace Obito as his agent and carry out the Eye of the Moon Plan.

However, Uchiha Seiryu had full confidence in his own strength.

His mastery of space-time techniques, in particular, gave him ample confidence when facing Madara Uchiha.

He knew that Madara Uchiha would never dare to act rashly before he could break through Madara's abilities.

Uchiha Seiryu's thoughts surged like flowing water, and suddenly, he seemed to see through everything.

The Third Mizukage's actions may not have been controlled by Madara Uchiha, but rather stemmed from his own will in attacking the Land of Whirlpools.

After all, this incident was undoubtedly a huge disgrace for the Land of Water.

The Third Mizukage himself was controlled by genjutsu, causing the Land of Water to lose face.

Moreover, he also lost the Three-Tails, which was undoubtedly a huge blow to him.

If he were to return like this, he would not only lose his position as Mizukage, but might even become a sinner of the Mizukage Village, forever despised by the world.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Seiryu's eyes narrowed slightly, a dangerous glint flashing in them.

He suddenly realized that he had to handle the affairs of the Land of Whirlpools himself.

Because in this world, it wasn't just Kirigakure that lost its tailed beasts; Kumogakure and Iwagakure also lost one.

Although his strength would make these villages wary, it was not enough to make them completely awe.

He knew perfectly well why Madara Uchiha was more terrifying than Hashirama Senju.

That's because Hashirama Senju had a mild personality and wouldn't do anything outrageous.

Madara Uchiha, on the other hand, was a man of his word, and his domineering nature was enough to instill fear in everyone.

This is the difference between people. The strong may not inspire awe, but the ruthless certainly do.

During the Chunin Exams, he displayed his strength, shocking everyone.

But now, what he needs to demonstrate is his attitude towards the outside world.

He wanted everyone to know that he, Uchiha Seiryu, was not only powerful, but also a ruthless character not to be underestimated.

Mito Uzumaki was momentarily stunned as she looked at Seiryu Uchiha, who had suddenly become murderous.

She couldn't help but ask:
