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

The cold wind whipped up withered leaves that danced in the air. Orochimaru, carrying the unconscious Mitarashi Anko on his back, walked into the underground laboratory without a trace of joy or sorrow. Time was running out.

"Hokage-sama! Orochimaru knocked Mitarashi Anko unconscious and took her away. The Anbu members responsible for monitoring her have also been affected by genjutsu!"

As the door was kicked open, an urgent message came from the Anbu. Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was playing with his pipe, sighed deeply and looked at the combat suit that had been packed up beside him.

"Gather your men and follow me to capture Orochimaru. At the same time, temporarily imprison all of Orochimaru's former subordinates in the Anbu prison. Koharu, you are in charge of this matter."

"Men Yan, you are temporarily in charge of maintaining order in the village. Anyone who dares to cause trouble will be severely punished!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had already changed into his battle suit, looked at the Anbu gathered outside the window, a resolute look flashing in his eyes. He decided to leave Orochimaru to himself.

The next second, several figures set off from the Hokage Building and headed towards the distant forest, and this large-scale event made many ninja clans uneasy.

However, they soon discovered that the Uchiha clan of the police department was arresting people everywhere. They were filled with resentment and were inevitably a bit rough when they took action.

These former Orochimaru subordinates were naturally extraordinary individuals. Although they couldn't physically attack, they could still manipulate the emotions of those around them with their words.

Therefore, the Uchiha clan unwittingly took the blame for this offensive act, while Koharu and the others behind the scenes remained completely unscathed.

"Let me go! What are you Uchiha doing? Let go! Are you rebelling?!"

A struggling Konoha researcher was roughly thrown to the ground, his glasses on his nose broken, and he was cursing loudly.

Then he was punched unconscious and dragged away. The same scene played out around them, with similar process and result.

First he cried out that he was innocent, then they accused him, and finally the Uchiha used force to drag him away.

"To outsiders who don't know the cause and effect, this is evidence of the Uchiha's domineering behavior," Chiyu said, standing in the corner, eating takoyaki and watching the scene.

Moreover, in Chiyu's view, the real key figures should have been secretly arrested long ago. Most of these people are innocent; they only fought for the village under Orochimaru's guidance.

These people will likely be acquitted in the end, and may even be appeased. In that case, the Uchiha will ultimately be caught in the middle.

"There's nothing I can do. I don't know why my people can't be a little gentler in their actions. They're always so tough when it comes to handling things, big or small."

As she took the takoyaki, a look of worry flashed in Uchiha Tsuki's eyes. Only then did she realize why Chiba insisted on bringing her out, and why she wasn't wearing clothes with the clan crest.

Today's large-scale operation has left the Uchiha clan short-handed. Many clan members who were not in the police force have been transferred to other posts. If Chiba hadn't contacted him, Uchiha Tsuki would probably have participated as well.

"When you have nothing to do, you can take Quan to the Senju ancestral home to train with me." In the past, Senyu could only watch many things happen, but now he has a little more say.

If he only needs to protect Yue and her sister in the future, Chiba is confident that even the Third Hokage will not be able to ignore him by then.

As for the remaining Uchiha, that's up to fate. Anyway, the Sharingan is a well-known and popular accessory; if it doesn't work out, we can try to collect some more later.

Hearing the whispers around her, Chiyu precisely tossed the skewer in her hand into a nearby trash can. "Izumi's playing with Karin at the ancestral home. Let's go find Iruka to train."

Uchiha Tsuki naturally had no objection to Chiyu's suggestion. After taking one last look at the clansmen patrolling around and the hostile gazes of the people around her, she could only turn around and leave helplessly.

At another location, Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the gate standing brightly beneath the giant tree without any spells or incantations. He took a deep breath and led his team inside.

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi entered the underground laboratory, a flicker of emotion flashed in Orochimaru's eyes, who was deeper inside. After glancing at Anko lying on the operating table, he turned and left.

At this moment, Mitarashi Anko has a stitched-up wound on her abdomen and mysterious spells on her limbs. Anyone who sees this knows that Orochimaru is using his student for evil experiments.

A moment later, upon seeing Anko, Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned, and the Anbu members beside him stepped forward to check on her condition.

"Lord Hokage, Mitarashi Anko's condition is very bad. A cold chakra is corroding her body, and she has lost too much blood and is on the verge of death."

Upon hearing the report from his subordinates in the Anbu, Hiruzen Sarutobi, his face turning ashen, ordered that the other woman be sent for treatment. At the same time, he instructed that she be kept under strict guard and that no one else be allowed to approach Mitarashi Anko.

He then led the Anbu deeper into the area, where traps and mechanisms were everywhere, greatly delaying Hiruzen Sarutobi's progress.

Finally, when Hiruzen Sarutobi kicked open the sturdy door, Orochimaru, who had already prepared everything, was quietly waiting for him.

"Teacher, you've finally arrived. I had to see you one last time before I left, didn't I?"

Looking at Orochimaru, who wore a smile but seemed completely unfamiliar to him, Hiruzen Sarutobi finally asked the question that had been bothering him.

"Orochimaru, do you know that the person lying on the operating table is a Konoha ninja, just like you?"

"Of course I know."

Orochimaru's answer extinguished the last glimmer of hope in Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart. A huge plume of white smoke rose, and as his right hand clenched and extended, the fierce-looking Enma appeared beside him.

"Teacher and student turning against each other, Hiruzen, your opponent has now become your own student?"

"This is troublesome for the Ape Demon!"

"boom!"

Deep within Konoha's unique Death Forest, a tremendous crash resounded. Looking at the rogue ninja lying on the ground, Uchiha Shisui slowly withdrew his genjutsu.

Not far away, Kakashi Hatake and Yamato, who were also wearing masks, had bound their opponents. Because of their young age, the three of them were assigned to this place to intercept the people who were meeting Orochimaru.

"Tenzo, after you've bound them, remember to cut off their chakra to prevent any further accidents."

"Yes, sir!"

When he hadn't fully adapted to performing the task yet, his companion would give him this guidance, Yamato replied in a somewhat dry tone.

Just then, a strange sound came from the woods behind them, as if some huge creature was rapidly approaching, which made them alert.

Just as the three of them assumed a defensive stance, a giant snake head emerged from the dark forest. Then, the snake opened its mouth, and a wet, viscous figure was gradually expelled from it.

Although it was unknown how Orochimaru escaped from the Hokage, Uchiha Shisui and the other two quickly formed hand seals, unleashing a massive surge of wind and fire energy that created a huge commotion in the forest.
