Your Cheat Has Arrived

Chapter 31: Your Cheat Has Arrived [Seeking Recommendation Tickets]

Dragging his exhausted body back to his room.

He looked at the neatly arranged books and scrolls on the table.

In two weeks, Toneri had memorized all the contents within them.

No

"All right!"

Talking to himself felt quite strange.

Since it was his first time using it, the Chakra was split evenly between Toneri and the Shadow Clone.

The Shadow Clone wouldn't disappear until the Chakra was depleted.

Exhausted and startled from the day's events, Toneri immediately collapsed onto his bed.

With the Shadow Clone Technique, he was once again filled with confidence about his future strength!

"Big Beauty, here I come--"

Meanwhile, in the Hokage Office.

After finishing his paperwork, Hiruzen Sarutobi was about to take out his crystal ball to relax and lift his spirits.

Several Anbu Ninja suddenly appeared before him.

Upon closer inspection, it could be seen that these were the Anbu Ninja responsible for monitoring Toneri.

After Toneri returned to the Nara Clan's compound, two of them were left to keep watch outside, while the rest were supposed to return to the Anbu base, shed their disguises, and resume their normal lives.

Then, a report on Toneri would be delivered to Hiruzen Sarutobi's desk the next morning.

However, today, they had no choice but to appear here.

Sensing their arrival, Hiruzen Sarutobi calmly put his crystal ball back.

Soon, the Anbu captain briefly recounted the evening's events to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

The mysterious Ninja they had clashed with that evening had disappeared after only a brief encounter.

But the opponent's strength was formidable, no less than their own, and they seemed very familiar with their combat style.

Since their mission was focused on the Jinchūriki, they didn't pursue further. Fortunately, Toneri was unharmed.

However, the situation was peculiar, and after confirming Toneri had safely returned to the Nara compound, they immediately came to report to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

The pipe, which had been extinguished, began to glow intermittently again.

"I understand. You may leave. Proceed as usual tomorrow," Hiruzen Sarutobi said to them calmly.

Receiving the order, the Anbu Ninja vanished instantly.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was left alone at his desk.

He slowly stood up, one hand holding his pipe, the other clenched into a fist behind his back.

He walked to the window, taking in almost the entire view of Konoha.

"Danzo, there were some things you did that crossed the line. I knew you did them for Konoha, so I turned a blind eye.

But now, you haven't just crossed the line, you've overstepped your bounds!!" Hiruzen Sarutobi murmured, looking at Konoha bathed in the sunset's afterglow.

His current strength was like this setting sun; although it was on the decline, it didn't mean it lacked warmth!

Danzo was like the moon, which only shone by relying on the sun. He should know that without the sun, where would his light come from!

"Investigate what Root has been doing recently! Give them an appropriate warning!" Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice was still full of vigor.

An Anbu Ninja emerged from the shadows in the corner, knelt on one knee in salute, and then disappeared.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, meanwhile, gazed into the distance, lost in thought as he looked at Konoha.
