In chaotic times, rumors always spread easily.

Especially when two major clans deliberately spread them.

Rumors and hearsay about the Anbu began to multiply in Konoha.

"Have you heard? Some Anbu members were attacked by ninja from the Land of Earth near our village."

Two people who had been waiting in a desolate village stood out conspicuously. Although the Anbu's cat mask was eye-catching, the middle-aged man beside him was even harder to look away from.

No one would have expected Danzo,
