On the road back to Konoha, Kakashi suddenly brought up the trio he had fought in Daimyo City of the Land of Fire: Immovable, No Fate, and Fū.
He also mentioned how the three of them had ultimately been rescued by the Night Duke.
"Huh? Kakashi, you actually ran into opponents that formidable? And that Night Duke—is he the mysterious person who suddenly appeared during the coup in the village over half a year ago?" Asuma was extremely curious about the four people Kakashi had mentioned.
Soji, meanwhile, listened in silence without offering an opinion.
After all, they were talking about him. What could he possibly say?
Besides, Immovable, No Fate, and Fū had already been recruited by Soji.
No, rather, they had been recruited by Mizuki Ember!
That day, after the Night Duke rescued the three from Kakashi, it took them about a day to wake up one after another.
At first, when they heard that the Night Duke wanted to recruit them, the three refused.
According to them, they only wanted a place to settle down, and they only followed the strong.
As for the Night Duke, only a small number of people probably knew that name. The three of them had never even heard of it.
To put it bluntly, the Night Duke did not meet their criteria for allegiance.
But after hearing their conditions, Soji immediately thought of another one of his identities.
Didn't Mizuki Ember possess the Land of Snow and possess strength known throughout the Ninja World?
So, with that thought, Soji switched identities and prepared to have Mizuki Ember persuade them.
But who would have thought that the moment Mizuki Ember appeared before the three of them, before he even had time to speak, they voluntarily begged to join him...
