Naruto, the strongest Uchiha from signing in.

One by one, nine-faced beasts emerged from the magma. The scrolls bitten by Suzaku and Xuanwu were silently put into the ninja tool bag by Huayue, but her eyes were looking towards the direction of the Wind Kingdom.

"Really? The Wind Country can't even keep a hostage... Never mind. It has nothing to do with me."

With a flicker of his figure, the white mist dissipated, and the Nine-Faced Beast disappeared on the spot. Only the red magma was quietly flowing in the Platycodon Mountain.

On the other side, the overt or covert scrutiny and whispers also left Uchiha Fugaku speechless.

Let's just say he doesn't know them. He's the captain of the Konoha Police Force and the head of the Uchiha clan, but he doesn't even recognize his own people. Who would believe him if he told others about it?

But what if I said something wrong, wouldn’t it be even more embarrassing when that guy comes back?

Fortunately, Fugaku Higashi's embarrassing situation did not last too long. The undisguised sound of footsteps appeared, followed by the pitch-black kunai and figure, which made Yuhi Shinku overjoyed.

"Hong! Are you okay? Hong..."

"It's just that the leg was slightly touched by the aftermath of the Tailed Beast Ball. I'll let the medical ninja from the medical team treat it later."

"Also, it's really rude to say you don't know me, Minato-sensei. We met once before at the Third Hokage's pre-war mobilization. Really."

When the mask was taken off, all the famous families of Konoha, including the clan leaders and family heads, were slightly stunned. Wasn't this the Uchiha Kagetsu who had openly done indecent things in front of the Third Hokage and had just graduated from the Ninja School?

What's going on? How did he suddenly become so strong? Who taught him the Flying Thunder God Technique?

"Hanazuki? So it's you. Did the Third-sama send you for support?"

"No, it was Orochimaru-sensei who asked me to take over the commission from the Third Hokage, and I am only responsible for the battlefield with the Sand Ninja. I will come over to take a look after the battle over there is over."

His smile was bright and there was no falsehood in his tone. His sincere words made everyone silent and immersed in numbness for a long time.

"Hanazuki, could it be that you have suppressed Chiyo, the Kazekage advisor of the Kingdom of Wind?"

Facing Minato's doubts, Kagetsu admitted it frankly.

"That's right. Among my summoned beasts, there is one that specifically restrains puppet ninjas, so the battle went unexpectedly smoothly."

"Counselor Fengying! Is that kind of existence real or fake? Are you kidding me?"

The continuous shocks made Yuhi Kurenai subconsciously look around, trying to seek answers from these Chunin and Jonin, as well as her own father.

"Are you here already?"

He tilted his head slightly, and a group of Konoha Medical Squad members quickly approached. The petite woman in the lead was none other than the current squad leader of Konoha Medical Squad, the 'walking shrine maiden' Yakushi Nono.

"Where are the injured? You, give priority to treating the seriously injured. After the remaining injured are given emergency bandages, come to help immediately. The priority levels are allocated according to red, yellow, and green."

"Sister Nono, the injured here is a special case. I'm leaving her in your care."

There was a hint of surprise in his eyes behind the toad-shaped glasses, as if he had let go of a heavy worry. Nono nodded heavily and checked Yuhi Kurenai's injuries.

"Thank you very much. If it weren't for you, I really don't know how to explain to the child's mother."

The Konoha jonin who also had black hair and red eyes and looked somewhat similar to Yuhi Kurenai, bowed slightly, with worry lingering in her eyes.

"It's okay. Hong and I are friends. I just injured my leg. I will be fine after some rest."

With a peaceful smile, Nono nodded, indicating that the injury was not serious. Only then did Yuhi Shinku feel relieved and turned to look at Huayue.

"Are you familiar with Hong? You should be a student who just graduated this year. You are two years younger than Hong, so the age difference is not too big."

He frowned when he heard this and said, "Father, you seem to be thinking about something dangerous."

"I'm sorry to interrupt your conversation, but I'm just going to borrow this child for a while. Really red."

A calm and capable voice sounded behind the two of them. Uchiha Kagetsu turned around, and the first thing that came into his sight was the logo of the Konoha Police Force.

"Fugaku-sama...I understand."

Yuhi Shinku walked up to Yuhi Kurenai and asked something in a low voice.

Lying flat on the ground, Xihi Hong barely turned her head and looked at the flaming fan behind the black cloak. She felt hot all over and felt weak as if she had a bad cold.

"What is it, Lord Fugaku?"

"Uchiha Kagetsu, your strength and qualifications are qualified to join the Konoha Police Force and officially participate in the clan meeting..."

Before Fugaku could continue, Kagetsu raised her hand to stop him, her tone calm.

"I refuse. I will be training with Master Orochimaru next. I have no plans to serve in the Konoha Police Force for the time being. As for the clan meeting, let's talk about it after I finish my training."

With his brows slightly furrowed, Uchiha Fugaku was silent for a moment and nodded slightly.

"Master Orochimaru? Congratulations on being accepted as a disciple by Orochimaru, one of the Three Ninjas. With a little more experience, you may become a ninja that is no less powerful than him."

During the conversation, Fugaku looked at Habin Minato, met his gaze, and nodded slightly, with expectation in his eyes.

"The Uchiha clan needs a bond with the village. Your talent and circumstances are destined to make you a key figure in the connection between the village and the clan in the future."

"Whatever you need, you can ask the clan for it, but you must remember that you are a member of the Uchiha clan. You have... no, you are destined to be an Uchiha clan member who can open the Sharingan."

Uchiha Fugaku, who was talking to himself and glancing at the young man beside him from time to time, did not notice the indifference and disdain in Huayue's eyes.

"Master Nono, Master Nono! Please take a look at this child. It seems that his brain has been hit by some kind of shock and he has lost his memory."

The faint voice did not escape Huayue's ears. Slightly in the distance, the white-haired boy, led by the medical ninja, appeared in front of Nono.

"Hanazuki, I want to ask you something about Kikyo Mountain..."

Namikaze Minato and Nara Shikaku walked up to Huayue together, wanting to ask about the specific details on Mount Kikyo. Uchiha Fugaku also stood there, wanting to know the current situation on Mount Kikyo.

"Mt. Kikyo? There is no Mt. Kikyo anymore. As expected of the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki's Tailed Beast Ball, that move flattened the entire mountain and blew out a huge crater. If you were hit head-on by that move, you would be doomed."

The tone was one of amazement, and it didn't sound fake at all. A huge pot was put on Kirabi's head.

"What about the Fourth Raikage? How are the Sand Ninja's Rasa and the Scorch Release Ninja?"

"We retreated. I turned the Tailed Beast Ball around when it was fired. It must have hurt a lot to be hit by our own attack. So pitiful, hehe..."

His brain froze for a moment, and Nara Shikamaru, whose CPU was running frantically, was silent for a long time and sighed in a low voice.

"So, did we win?"
