Naruto: In the name of the Senju, he made the ninja world tremble.

"Bang!"

A loud, angry slam of the door rang out, and Mitarashi Anko, her dark purple hair styled in a high ponytail, sat sulking in a chair, seething with rage.

She had naturally heard the rumors circulating in Konoha Village these past few days, especially today when she was eating glutinous rice balls and overheard someone openly spreading rumors about her teacher.

Enraged, she pinned the other person to the ground and beat them up. The commotion was so great that it even attracted the intervention of the Uchiha clan of the police department. In the end, she was taken back by her friend Kurenai.

Thinking of her friend's reminder and her comrades who had been keeping their distance recently, Hongdou felt wronged and could only bite her lip to keep her tears from falling.

Two secret agents outside were monitoring Hongdou, observing her every move to prevent any unexpected situations from occurring.

"Strange, Anko is Orochimaru-sama's personal student, yet she's so clean," the ANBU member wearing a fox mask asked, stroking his chin in confusion, while turning to look at his companion beside him.

His companion was watching him silently, without uttering a word. The fox-like operative had a bad feeling and was about to make a move when his body stiffened and he could no longer move.

"Since you are my teacher's ANBU, I will spare your lives," Orochimaru's figure emerged from the shadows behind the two. "I need to speak with my students. You can wait here for a while."

As he spoke, Orochimaru, carrying a food box, revealed a slight smile on his stiff face and knocked on Mitarashi Anko's door.

-----------------

"It's quite clear that Hiruzen is determined to protect Orochimaru, and we, as advisors, must stop him."

With his cane constantly tapping the ground, Shimura Danzo looked excitedly at Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu in front of him, hoping to gain their support.

But things seemed to be going against his expectations. The two advisors did not react immediately, but instead looked at him calmly.

Just as Danzo, his brows furrowed, was about to speak, Koharu Utatane, sitting opposite him, reached out to stop him.

"Danzo, you've gone too far this time. We already regretted what happened to Sakumo Hatake back then, and now you're using the same trick on Orochimaru."

"You've become a bit obsessed with the Hokage position lately. We think you should calm down. Didn't Hiruzen already order a ban on Root? You shouldn't be here."

Koharu Utatane's words were undoubtedly a blow to Danzo Shimura. In his view, they should be one entity, jointly restraining the Hokage's power.

"Danzo, you seem to have forgotten the reason for establishing the advisory position in the first place," Mitokado Homura said, noticing Danzo's confusion. He took off his glasses and gently wiped them, staring at him with narrowed eyes.

"Assisting the Hokage in the operation of government affairs, checking the Hokage's abuse of power, and being responsible for foreign relations, all of these can be summarized as prioritizing the prosperity and stability of Konoha."

"Everyone has selfish desires. In trivial matters, we may favor you, after all, we are not without desires."

"However, when something threatens the safety of Konoha, all of this must give way to this. Whether Orochimaru's actions are real or not, the best outcome is to handle them discreetly."

"This will minimize the impact on the village. Even if Orochimaru really escapes the village, outsiders will think that he is traveling around the ninja world like Jiraiya."

"Konoha needs stability right now, and you!" After putting his glasses back on, Mitokado Homura looked sharply at Danzo. "You've messed everything up. Now things are in such a mess, and things are going in the worst possible direction."

"Danzo, you don't actually think Orochimaru will commit suicide like Sakumo Hatake, do you? He's known as the 'Cold-Blooded One.' If something like the Nine-Tails' attack happens again, you should commit seppuku."

Mitokado Homura's words were like a knife stabbing into Danzo. He never expected that everything he had done for Konoha would be misinterpreted in this way.

"In a fit of anger, he was about to storm off when a plump figure blocked his path, causing him to exclaim in surprise, 'Qu Feng, you're here too?'"

Akimichi Torifu, who was living in seclusion at home, sighed helplessly and handed the Hokage token in his hand to Danzo. At the same time, he and two others formed a triangle around Shimura Danzo.

He removed Shimura Danzo from all his posts, including that of an advisor, and confined him to his residence, forbidding him from leaving. At the same time, he gathered all Root members under the command of the Anbu branch and removed the sealing techniques from everyone.

Looking at the words on the Hokage Order, Shimura Danzo's face turned ashen, his hands trembled uncontrollably, and his single eye was bloodshot.

"Snapped!"

Akimichi Torifu patted Shimura Danzo's shoulder with his broad hand. "Danzo, your personal guard Hiruzen has been left untouched. You should be understanding of him and not make things difficult for everyone."

"snort!"

Upon hearing Akimichi Torifu's words, Shimura Danzo snorted coldly, turned around and left, followed by the Hokage's direct ANBU who were monitoring him.

Seeing this, Akimichi Torifu shrugged and looked at Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu. All three of them had helpless expressions on their faces. These were truly troublesome times.

"You treat us to dinner and this is it?" Chiyu looked at Ichiraku Ramen in front of her, then at Uchiha Shisui sitting upright in front of her, and said speechlessly, staring at his transformed face.

You're a special Jonin-level Anbu member, after all. You're treating me to this to thank me for saving your life? If not barbecue, you should at least have a sukiyaki.

Besides, Chiyu didn't think she was that familiar with the other person.

"Um, there are some things I'd like to ask you about, Chiyu. I didn't think this through. How about we go to Akimichi's yakiniku restaurant now?"

"Actually, I was planning to treat your ninja class to barbecue tomorrow."

After being reminded by Chiyu, Uchiha Shisui realized that he had done something wrong, so he quickly changed his words.

"No, no, no, I was just joking. Please tell me what you're talking about first. I'm really worried that I won't be able to answer your questions after we finish eating the barbecue, and that would be even more embarrassing."

"He who eats another's food is bound to do so," Chiyu quickly retorted, trying to shut the other person up. "The encounter between the Uchiha and Senju is already sensitive enough; let's not say anything more sensitive."

Knowing Chiyu's concerns, Uchiha Shisui nodded, then asked solemnly, "Chiyu, I actually wanted to continue our previous topic..."

Just then, a loud eagle cry rang out in the sky. Qian Yu didn't notice anything, but Uchiha Shisui's expression changed.

"Chiba, I have a mission. I'll treat you to barbecue next time," said Uchiha Shisui, before leaping away into the distance, his figure disappearing rapidly.

It seems Orochimaru's matter has come to light. Chiba leisurely finished off the ramen, then got up and left in the opposite direction. We, with our small arms and legs, won't get involved.

Watching Chiyu leave after only eating one bowl of noodles today, Ichiraku, standing around the soup pot, stared into thought as he looked at his ramen. Had his skills deteriorated?
