Tekuno and Kimura spoke in unison.

They've been here for a month and have long since figured out the essence of this mission.

"Ah."

Huang gave a soft hum, indicating that he understood.

But a look of sorrow resurfaced in Baiyun Yeshan's eyes.

"Since you've just arrived, you'll be working with me on this mission. Tekuno and Kimura will be in the same group. Tomorrow, we'll continue our advance northward, but at a slower pace."

"We're getting closer and closer to the border of the Land of Earth, so we have to be careful. Hisashi got injured because he accidentally stepped into a trap set by Iwagakure, and I don't want that to happen again."

"Of course, it's better now that I have the Sharingan, but I need to put in a lot more effort."

Most ordinary reconnaissance ninjas learn their tricks through countless trials and injuries; while those of average ability, like the Yamanaka clan, possess strong mental power and can detect the enemy's presence in advance, but they are somewhat ineffective against well-hidden traps.

This is where the power of eye techniques comes into play. The Byakugan is naturally the most powerful bloodline limit for reconnaissance; otherwise, Kirigakure and Kumogakure wouldn't have gone to such lengths to obtain it.

The Sharingan comes second.

Furthermore, unlike the Sharingan, the Byakugan can be used at will once obtained.

Only those with Uchiha blood can unleash the full power of the Sharingan, and transplanting the Sharingan into other races will face an extremely awkward predicament: it cannot be turned off!

It's like a leaky faucet, constantly draining the host's chakra.

Therefore, other factions do not desire the Sharingan as much as they desire the Byakugan.

"I see."

Huang rarely spoke more than a few words.

When it comes to the lives of his comrades, he will protect them meticulously, regardless of whether they are from the Uchiha clan or not. This is also his promise to the shikigami, Hyakki.

This answer made Baiyun Shangren raise his eyes slightly, and he felt a deeper understanding of this little guy.

Everything was normal for the first half of the month.

But as the project progressed, subtle changes began to occur in the surroundings.

The forest, which should have been filled with birdsong and insect chirps, was unusually quiet.

Such quiet is not a good thing for any seasoned ninja, just like the calm before a storm.

"Captain Baiyun."

Tekuno frowned and called out in a low voice.

He didn't say much, but everything was conveyed in the exchange of their eyes.

Immediately, Baiyun Yeshan gestured for him to stop and took out the map he had been keeping in his pocket, examining it carefully.

This map is very simple, with only a few strokes marking the areas of forest, highlands, and plains. It could easily be mistaken for a child's doodle.

"We are here now, and the nearest high point is here, which is also the best place to survey the entire area. However, if we want to get here, we need to cross this field."

As his finger slid across the map, even the usually cold-faced elite ninja couldn't help but show a troubled expression.

Although it is difficult to move through the forest and easy to fall into enemy traps, it is also more suitable for individual combat.

However, once they entered the wilderness, they would inevitably face being completely exposed, especially since there were only four of them. If they were discovered by the Iwagakure army, it would almost certainly mean certain death.

It's important to know that this ninja village is characterized by its group-based combat.

Simply put, it's about using human lives to build a mountain of drugs!

Ironically, they even righteously regard such behavior as the will of stone.

This is the point that Baiyun Yeshan finds most disdainful.

The most correct idea is to pass on the flame of life to more promising future generations!

"Captain, it's up to you."

"Tekino said in a deep voice."

In this situation, reaching a consensus is the most important thing.

Shirokumo Hayama remained silent, his gaze sweeping over Kimura Suke and Uchiha Ara, who were also silent, before finally gritting his teeth and making a firm decision: "Mission first."

"However, Tekuno, gather all the explosive tags in the squad and set a trap here. If we are attacked, this will be our only escape route."

"Yes!"

His chubby hand responded instantly, his expression serious.

Chapter 45 You didn't stop it either, did you?

"Danzo!"

"how dare you?"

An angry roar filled the entire Hokage's office.

If a soundproof barrier hadn't been set up here beforehand, the entire population of Konoha would probably have felt the Third Hokage's wrath!

"Calm down, Hiruzen."

"What kind of Hokage do you look like right now?"

Xiaochun frowned slightly as she turned to her new room.

Apart from the Uchiha clan, the area is relatively peaceful, and nothing major should happen recently.

Moreover, even if there is an attack from foreign tribes, the Shadow, as the highest leader of the village, must maintain the most basic composure!

"Ask him!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi said through gritted teeth.

The almost solidified rage nearly transformed into a fiery escape, burning the old man with his eyes closed to ashes.

"What happened...?"

“I did nothing wrong. Everything I did was for the village.”

As soon as Koharu Utatane opened her mouth to ask, Danzo Shimura immediately denied it, his voice calm and collected.

This explanation clearly did not satisfy Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Even the two advisors frowned.

Danzo's starting point was undoubtedly for Konoha; this is something they can be certain of without explanation.

However, the ultimate consequences of this event are uncertain.

It seems that Hiruzen's anger stemmed from this final outcome.

"What exactly did you do, Danzo?"

Mito Enmon couldn't help but ask.

"He secretly sent someone to contact Iwagakure, intending to send two Jonin to their deaths!"

Before the instigator could answer.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who could no longer contain his anger, roared!

Colluding with an enemy country!

Betraying your comrades!

These two keywords instantly came to mind for the two consultants.

And regardless of the specific charge, it would be an unforgivable crime deserving of death!!

Xiaochun remained silent after changing dorm rooms.

On this point, she could no longer speak up for Danzo.

Colluding with enemy countries is understandable.

Because in the ninja world, it is very common to plant spies among each other, especially in the power struggles between major nations.

Sometimes, seemingly accurate and highly profitable intelligence may just be the meat that the opponent is willing to cut at a painful cost!

Danzo was most adept at this kind of trick!

But the ones who betrayed their comrades were two powerful Jonin!

Such a loss is something that neither side can accept with a clear conscience. Furthermore, judging from Hiruzen's tone, the two ninjas belonged to the village, not the Uchiha clan.

"Can you see the Uchiha clan now?"

"Have you heard the cries of ordinary residents for the Uchiha clan?"

"Or have you also been blinded by that brief victory in the East?"

Danzo Shimura gave an irrelevant answer.

Yet every sentence hits the nail on the head regarding the crux of the problem.

That's right, the Uchiha have changed.

The Uchiha clan, who should have been grieving the loss of Shisui, reversed their previous decline because of the actions of a young boy!

With the strength of their clan, they penetrated into the heart of the Land of Water, and no one could stop them in their path, forcing the Kaguya clan to retreat.

You should know that they are a clan whose very bones have the word "war" engraved in their very being!

There has always been only one option: fight to the death. There is simply no other choice.

But when faced with the rampaging Uchiha, and those eyes that could easily plunge people into hell, they were afraid, terrified, and retreated!

Without the supreme combat power, no one can stop the Uchiha!

No.

There once was.

But that clan no longer exists.

This feat, which drove the Konoha ninjas wild with pride, also ensured that the boy's name would be etched on the border of Kirigakure.

Uchiha Arakawa!
