Zongman: Sharingan just opened, you said it was the fault of the earth

A man who can become one of the Five Kage will never really be willing to be an obedient dog.

He obeys strength, not loyalty.

Even though he has been granted "favor" and has become one of Bai Yulin's followers, there is no 100% guarantee that his "thoughts" will not quietly mutate and give rise to delusions in the dark of night.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes and looked at Rasa who was still arranging orders and restoring order in the distance, with an ambiguous smile on his lips.

However, what he didn't know was—

Bai Yulin, of course, knew what he was thinking.

Known it from the beginning.

Bai Yulin, who was standing in front, tilted his head slightly, his eyes falling on Orochimaru's back through the wind and sand, a faint smile flashed in the depths of his eyes.

He didn't mind.

because--

What he needs is someone like Orochimaru.

It is not a loyal dog, but a "poisonous snake" that can think for itself and clean up its own troubles.

As long as he knows who the true God is, who is the Giver of all things, he will always have value.

As for ambition?

It's just a toy that can be crushed at any time.

Bai Yulin turned around and his eyes fell on Ais and Lefiya who were standing quietly behind him.

"Let's go,"

Bai Yulin spoke lightly,

"Let's go back."

The next moment, golden light streaked across the air, and three figures quietly disappeared from the spot.

In the wind and sand, Orochimaru stood with his hands behind his back, looking quietly in the direction of the Sand Village ahead.

“What an exciting stage.”

He grinned, his golden snake eyes flashing with irrepressible madness and anticipation.

……

Konoha Village.

In the middle of the lobby of the Hokage Building, the body of a young boy lay quietly.

Uchiha Haruka, who was only fifteen years old, was instantly promoted from one hook to two hooks after receiving the favor.

Although his talent is not as terrifying as 907 Sasuke, he is also one of the next generation of main forces that the clan focuses on training.

Now, his chest was pierced and even his Sharingan was shattered.

The death can only be described as "tragic".

On the side, Uchiha Fugaku lowered his head, veins popping out of his forehead, and his face looked so ugly that it looked like ink was about to drip out:

“…Another one.”

"Another member of the tribe died."

"And—it's in the core area of ​​Konoha Village!"

He stared out the window, his brows almost twisted into knots.

Previously, the Akatsuki organization attacked and attempted to kidnap the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Naruto, and the Uchiha clan had already sacrificed several members.

Although Bai Yulin suppressed the two men afterwards, the incident had already sounded a warning bell in Fugaku's heart.

And now, another member of the tribe was ambushed and killed?

Uchiha, who became the core of the main god's clan with the personal support of Bai Yulin, was killed in Konoha, which was right under his feet?

Uchiha Fugaku only felt his scalp tingling:

"Damn bastard—are you resorting to such tactics just because you think Master Yu Lin is gone?"

"If... Lord Yulin returns and sees the corpses of Uchiha..."

The more he thought about it, the more cold sweat broke out on Fugaku's face.

He turned his head sharply and looked at the Anbu personnel beside him:

"Investigate! Investigate immediately! From the Anbu, the patrols, to every corner of Konoha!"

"Find me every clue, whether true or false!"

……

P.S. Asking for flowers, evaluation tickets and customization.

Chapter 168: [Please subscribe] Let’s move forward with the plan to unify the ninja world!

Hearing this, the Anbu ninja in front of him didn't say much, but just bowed and nodded.

"Yes!"

Before he finished speaking, his figure turned into a shadow and disappeared in an instant, dissipating in the shadow of the Hokage Building.

The house fell silent again.

Fugaku stood there, the muscles on his face twitching slightly, as if he was trying to hold on to something, but ultimately couldn't.

He slumped into his chair, looking as if he had suddenly aged ten years.

Raise your palm and press it firmly between your eyebrows.

——He knows very well.

The reason why he is still alive and can sit in the Hokage Building is not because he is so strong.

But because——

He is "useful".

He was once the leader of the Uchiha clan, able to stabilize the political situation and integrate the bloodline for Bai Yulin;

Now he is the nominal acting Hokage of Konoha, and can represent Bai Yulin to suppress the apparent order.

But in the final analysis, he is just a "chess piece" in Bai Yulin's hands.

In other words, it is a chess piece that is temporarily valuable.

But now——

After Orochimaru joins Konoha, he will most likely be given more authority and dominance.

Although Bai Yulin did not say it explicitly, the fact that he brought Orochimaru with him on this "expedition to the Sand Village" was a clear sign of his attitude:

"Lord Yu Lin is asking for trash..."

"but me……"

Fugaku took a deep breath.

"The village was given to me to manage, but in the end, one of the Uchiha clan members died."

"I……"

"How should I face him?"

But at this moment——

A familiar voice suddenly came from behind him:

"Facing what?"

The voice was gentle, even with a hint of a smile.

Fugaku's back stiffened and his hair stood on end!

He turned around suddenly and saw the air in front of him began to distort.

Afterwards, Bai Yulin and the other two appeared in the lobby of the Hokage Building as if by magic.

"Yu, Master Yulin——!"

Fugaku stood up in a flash, and almost as if by reflex, he bowed ninety degrees, his forehead sweating, his voice trembling:

"Konoha... Konoha is now..."

"Sit down."

Bai Yulin smiled and waved his hand.

"Don't be so nervous."

His smile was neither intimidating nor questioning, but rather like... a casual greeting between friends.

But the more this happened, the colder Fugaku felt!

Because he knew that Bai Yulin never needed anger to intimidate others.

Just a look or a word is enough to make anyone bow down in worship.

He straightened up and carefully sat back in the chair. Cold sweat had soaked his clothes on his back, and even his voice became a little softer:

"Lord Yu Lin...I have failed in my duty."

"Uchiha Haruka was ambushed and killed."

"We are investigating with all our might and will not let go of anyone or any clue."

Bai Yulin nodded, his expression normal, without any anger at all.

He walked to the main seat and sat on the chair that belonged to the "Hokage". Then he looked at Uchiha Fugaku and said:

"Ok, I know."

These three light words were like a huge hammer hitting Fugaku's chest!

He was stunned, his pupils shrank slightly, and his lips moved.

——He knows?

Fugaku's heart was pounding, his face changed suddenly, and a chill ran from his back to the top of his head.

How can it be?

Didn’t Bai Yulin just come back from the Sand Village?

He had just landed on the ground, and he already knew the whole picture?

Fugaku subconsciously looked behind Bai Yulin, his eyes sweeping over Ais and Lefiya standing on both sides.

The two of them still had the aura of space jump.

however……

Orochimaru, however, was gone.

He should have returned from the Sand Village with Bai Yulin.

Bai Yulin suddenly spoke, interrupting Uchiha Fugaku's thoughts:

"Is there any movement from the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Rock Village?"

Fugaku was stunned, his expression suddenly changed, and he stood there in a daze.

"Kumogakure...Iwagakure?"

He didn't react for a moment, his mind still stuck on the investigation of "Uchiha Haruka's death", and was about to dispatch the Anbu to search every corner of Konoha.

But the next moment, his eyes suddenly shook, and his whole body seemed to be awakened by someone hitting him with a stick!

--yes!

Why didn't I think outside of this?!

He had actually been subconsciously locking the "enemy" inside Konoha!
