Fire Demon and Lei Jian

Lei Jian is White Zetsu, a ninja created using the Hozuki Clan and Balance Scale Clan, combined with the Eight-Tails 'Chakra. He possesses immense power in his Lightning Style and also has the same water-transformation ability as the Hozuki Clan. However, in Lei Jian's hands, this water-transformation is lightning transformation; his entire body becomes lightning, making him arguably the king of lightning!

The two made outstanding contributions during World War II. They were known in the Shinobi World as the Fire Prison and the Lightning Prison.

Fire Demon and Lei Jian can be considered heroes of Konoha. They are also among the few remaining top-tier experts in Konoha.

At that moment, Uchiha Itachi looked at the two of them. Finally, he looked at Kakashi and said, "Captain Kakashi, can you tell me why you wanted to assassinate these two? Besides, with our strength, we are no match for them at all!"

Kakashi remained silent.

However, before Kakashi could speak, a voice rang out.

"Hehe, Kakashi, since you won't say it, then I will." A voice rang out.

At that moment, Uchiha Itachi instantly activated his Mangekyō Sharingan and looked around.

Then, countless flames transformed into a person— the Fire Demon.

The Fire Demon looked at Uchiha Itachi and couldn't help but say, "Uchiha Clan, and Kakashi kid. I never thought that the people who came to assassinate me and Lei Jian would be you two brats."

At that moment, a bolt of lightning appeared, transforming into a person. This person laughed and said, "Fire Demon, you still enjoy teasing little devils!"

The newcomer was Lei Jian!

At that moment, Kakashi immediately said, "Fire Demon Uncle, Lei Jian Uncle!"

These words startled Uchiha Itachi.

The Fire Demon's expression turned cold as he said, "Kakashi, although your father and I are very good friends, I won't let you, a mere brat, run rampant. Tell me, what is it that sent those two pieces of trash from Konoha to their deaths?"

At that moment, Uchiha Itachi was stunned.

Lei Jian smiled slightly and said, "I didn't expect this brat from the Uchiha Clan to know nothing at all. Interesting."

The Fire Demon scoffed, "I wonder if those two pieces of trash from Konoha are trying to play the game of using someone else to do their dirty work again?"

At that moment, Kakashi knelt on the ground and said, "Uncle Fire Demon, Uncle Lei Jian, I'm sorry, I was ordered by the Third Hokage to assassinate you two uncles!"

At that moment, the Fire Demon burst into laughter, then said disdainfully, "Idiot, Kakashi, you really are an idiot. Back when the Fourth Hokage was being chosen, both Lei Jian and I withdrew. That was because we had already seen through Hokage Position would die. Because Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo, and those old men would absolutely not allow anyone who obeyed them to become Hokage."

However, the Fourth Hokage was different. The Fourth Hokage had the support of Jiraiya and, more importantly, Tsunade. Tsunade, in turn, had that person behind her.

Therefore, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo, and those old fogies dared not obstruct him, and the Fourth Hokage successfully ascended to the throne. However, with Tsunade's departure, the Fourth Hokage died. Anyone could see through the trickery involved!

Lei Jian and I had given up on Konoha, so we left directly. What we wanted to protect was Konoha Konoha, a place where children could grow up healthily, not a place filled with rotten garbage!
