What Uchiha Yato had imagined was that after he left, Hiruzen Sarutobi would bring his two old friends and seize power directly.
Then, once Uchiha Yato returned, it would be the perfect moment for a Dragon King Returns scene.
No matter who it was, they would have to bow beneath his draconic might.

But what he had not expected was that when he returned, the scene remained exactly as it had been yesterday.
Other than a few higher-ups temporarily leaving to handle other battle preparations, nothing had changed.
Everyone was intently watching the footage on the projector Uchiha Yato had left behind.
Uchiha Yato quickly stepped forward to examine what was on it.
The sight immediately piqued his interest.
Originally, Minato Namikaze and A's battle should have been evenly matched.
Neither of them could defeat the other easily, but killing the other was equally impossible.
Yet the current situation differed from what he had seen before.

Kumogakure's dark-skinned brother duo against the master-and-student duo of Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya.
At this moment, Nara Shikaku noticed Uchiha Yato's return and began telling him what had happened while he was gone.
The general sequence was simple. At first, after Minato Namikaze managed to gain a slight advantage, he had intended to kill A.
Then Killer B appeared, directly putting an end to Minato Namikaze's plan.
Afterward, the two brothers had beaten Minato Namikaze around, leaving him no choice but to flee using the Flying Thunder God.
Seeing his beloved disciple being brutalized like that, Jiraiya could not stand it any longer. His choice was simple.
He summoned Gamabunta and rushed straight to the battlefield on his back.
That was how the current situation had come about.
