"Guards!!!"
Ronglin waved a hand and said with a cold sneer:
"Take them away. Hand them over to the Interrogation Department and interrogate them thoroughly about why they attacked me. Also, send men to surround the Temple of Fire. If anyone dares resist, kill them without mercy!!!!"
"Yes!!!"
Kazuma's mouth was sealed, leaving him unable even to defend himself.
By now, his guts were practically green with regret, and he was cursing Ronglin furiously in his heart. Not only had he inexplicably been saddled with the charge of attacking the Hokage, but he would also implicate the others.
One could imagine that a charge of rebellion would be an utterly devastating blow to the Temple of Fire.
From beginning to end, Kazuma could not understand why a little disrespect on his part had led to such a chain of events.
Could it be that the Hokage had wanted to make a move against the Temple of Fire from the start?
But why would the Hokage target the Temple of Fire?
After all, Konoha and the Temple of Fire had never had any grudges between them. The Temple of Fire was also a relatively influential force. Though it leaned somewhat closer to the Daimyo, that could not possibly be enough reason for the Hokage to want to uproot it, could it?
Perhaps...
"Mmph mmph~~~"
Suddenly, the dizzy-headed Kazuma thought of a possibility so shocking that even he was frightened by it: Hokage Uchiha Ronglin's ultimate target was not the Temple of Fire, but the Daimyo of the Land of Fire!!!
If that was the case, then even if he had behaved himself perfectly today, Ronglin would still deliberately find an excuse to use him as a scapegoat and wipe out the entire Temple of Fire!!!
The thought made Kazuma cry out
