Kurenai Yuhi's ruby-like eyes were wide, her small mouth slightly open. Her astonished expression was practically written all over her face.
To be honest, this was the first time Kurenai Yuhi had seen her usually laid-back superior speak with such... arrogance!
Yes, arrogance!
In Kurenai Yuhi's impression, members of the Hyuga Clan were generally rather humble and adhered to certain noble etiquettes.
Those qualities were usually reflected in her superior as well.
But this was absolutely the first time she had seen such an arrogant side of him!
"Don't worry. Since Lord Hokage sent me to handle this matter, I'll definitely resolve everything perfectly."
Seeing Kurenai Yuhi's expression, Soji felt like laughing, but he held it in.
"Whew. It's good that you're confident, Minister."
Letting out a soft breath, Kurenai Yuhi thought that, just as the minister had said, since Lord Hokage had sent him here, he clearly trusted him to handle this matter.
After that, another person joined the group following behind Soji.
Soji did not immediately send Kurenai Yuhi out of the illusion.
Although he had not expected her to be here today, knowing the relationship between her and Kurama Yakumo, Soji believed she had the right to be involved in this matter.
And ever since Soji had defeated Kurama Yakumo and Ido's combined efforts in the struggle for control of this genjutsu space, they had encountered no further obstacles on their way.
Upon reaching the end of the corridor, Soji pushed open the door without hesitation.
"Creak."
The sound of the door opening rang out.
At first, Kurenai Yuhi remained on guard against a possible sudden attack.
However, seeing that nothing unusual happened, she quietly relaxed some of her vigilance.
Led by Soji, the group entered the room.
Bang.
The instant they entered, the door closed again.
