Kill

This scene stirred some curiosity within the hall! However, Kangetsu, who was walking in front, noticed the man whose arm he had just severed speaking to someone else, then pointing his remaining fingers toward him.

Kangetsu heard the words reach his ears: "My lord, it's him! He's the one who severed my arm for no reason!"

Upon hearing this, Kangetsu quickened his pace and arrived directly beside the two men.

Just as the man addressed as "my lord" by the uncle was about to open his mouth to tell Kangetsu to stop, a black flash streaked by.

A jet of blood sprayed out as the uncle's head was cleanly severed by Kangetsu.

Kangetsu's icy eyes turned toward the man who had intended to stop him, and he said coldly, "Do you want to die too?"

The words were not loud, yet they were far from weak. Everyone in the hall froze; the once-noisy room fell into a dead silence as they stared at Kangetsu—a mere child with a murderous intent that chilled the bone.

Some among them recognized Kangetsu. After all, he was the son of Uchiha Tajima, a man ranked in the top ten of the entire Uchiha clan, not to mention the formidable strength of Kangetsu's mother.

At this moment, they watched the scene with keen interest. Yet, under the weight of so many gazes, Kangetsu spoke again: "Silent? As servants of the Uchiha, you should know your place. So, you can die as well!"

As he finished, another black flash cut through the air. Another head flew, and another fountain of blood erupted. Kangetsu curled his lip in disdain: "Mere commoners without a shred of chakra, yet you dare show me that look? Under my eyes, you are nothing but ants!"

With that, he flicked his blade, scattering the blood, and slid it back into its scabbard.

He then looked straight ahead and commanded coldly, "Move!"

He strode forward, and the men behind him, eyes filled with worship, followed him out of the hall in long, purposeful strides.

The hall remained deathly silent until a voice shattered the stillness: "Back to work, all of you! If anyone else causes such a scene, there will be no need for others to act—I will kill you all myself. In this world, there are countless people who would kill to work for the Uchiha. Do not think of yourselves as anything special! Young Master Kangetsu was right; in our eyes, you are nothing but ants!"

The lingering killing intent made everyone bow their heads and tremble in fear.

Kangetsu was unaware of all this, and even if he had known, he would have remained indifferent. After all, who would care about the affairs of ants?

At this moment, Kangetsu took out a map, checking it as he walked and comparing it to his memories. This place should be the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of River from the original story.
