Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
Amid a series of cutting winds, more and more figures landed around the Ninja Academy.
Among them were ordinary Konoha Ninja passing nearby, groups of ANBU, and members of the noble clans who had come after hearing the news.

So this challenge, initiated by Sasuke himself, was a godsend.
And she was confident that her student Yakumo could force Sasuke to reveal his true
