After some discussion, the list of twelve was finalized.

The twelve consisted of one Kage-level ninja and eleven Elite Jonin, including ninja from ninja clans as well as civilian ninja.

One Kage-level ninja plus eleven Elite Jonin—this lineup could be called the most luxurious ninja squad in history.

In addition, the intelligence networks of the Anbu and Root would be fully mobilized to search for the Wood Style Kekkei Genkai Ninja.

The moment they discovered any trace of the Wood Style Kekkei Genkai Ninja, the twelve would immediately head there.

Walking out of the Hokage Building, Uchiha Fugaku's anger over Uchiha Shisui infiltrating the secret chamber had eased somewhat.

"Finally, Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Obito will face each other!"

Originally, he had intended to assassinate people hostile to the Uchiha Clan, such as Aburame Shibi and Shimura Daisuke, forcing the Third Hokage to agree to form a twelve-man Elite Jonin extermination squad.

Unexpectedly, the theft of the Scroll of Seals had brought this about instead, and Uchiha Shisui had even been placed in this squad, where the casualty rate was bound to be extremely high.

His goal had been fully achieved. He just did not know what the outcome would be once the two sides clashed.

"I'll have to hold off on dealing with Aburame Shibi for now!"

Although his goal had been achieved, he had no intention of letting off Aburame Shibi, who was hostile to the Uchiha Clan.

It was merely that the timing of his move had to be postponed.

Konoha was currently searching for Uchiha Obito. If he acted now, he might very well be mistaken for Uchiha Obito and "surrounded and exterminated" by that twelve-man Elite Jonin squad.

"This period will be perfect for practicing the Forbidden Jutsu in the Scroll of Seals."
