Uchiha Itachi: "..."
Hyuga Neji: "..."
Both of them stiffened all over. So they had poured so much effort into this, had even been ready to give their lives to protect the entire Ninja World, only to find in the end that their teacher—Big Brother Akira—had arranged everything long ago.
Then hadn't they gotten worked up for nothing?
For a moment, they did not know whether they should be glad they had survived, or regret that, in their teacher's—Big Brother Akira's—eyes, they were still children to be protected.
"That's enough."

"Make it quick. Do you understand?"
