Hiruzen Sarutobi, who shared the same heart as Ren, understood everything after watching for only a few seconds.
Their target isn't just me, but also the Sarutobi Clan!
Even the subsequent developments were roughly predicted by Hiruzen Sarutobi: no matter which side won, the Sarutobi Clan would be the losers, it was just a matter of how much they would lose.
Hiruzen Sarutobi stared at Ren with a murderous gaze, but Ren remained oblivious, his face beaming with a smile.
"Advisor Hiruzen Sarutobi has a deep misunderstanding of me. Everything I've done is for Konoha! Guided by the Will of Fire!"
Since you didn't die, don't act like you're about to.
Want to die?
No way!
As for the look in Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes, Ren wasn't flustered at all. He wasn't Hiashi; this was just Hiruzen Sarutobi, a guy who didn't even have colored contact lenses. Who was he trying to scare with his glare?
After Hiruzen Sarutobi viewed it, the ninja turned off the device.
"What exactly do you want? And what will it take for you to tell me the result?"
Knowing his own limitations, Hiruzen Sarutobi did not want to fight and invite humiliation, but instead chose a more mature approach: communication.
Ren answered calmly.
"The first question is about Asuma, Jonin. He is one of the few ninjas who inherited the Will of Fire, so I fully respect his choice. My purpose is also very simple: I am just fulfilling my duty as Hokage to protect Konoha!"
In a moment of desperation, Hiruzen Sarutobi asked such a foolish question, but Ren patiently explained, speaking quite slowly.
Ren then spoke again, and Hiruzen Sarutobi was also paying close attention, was more concerned about the second question.
"As for the second question..."
Ren drew out the last syllable, then slowly walked to the square-shaped device and spoke with a tone full of pride.
"Let me first introduce this instrument. It's a newly developed device in our laboratory with wireless transmission capabilities. This is another great invention from Konoha!"
After speaking, Ren looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was still anxious and impatient. Ren knew that the other party had not understood, so he continued.
"It's complicated to explain in detail, but just know that this device can transmit data in real time, which means what you just saw wasn't a recording, but a live broadcast."
Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression changed drastically, but Ren did not stop speaking.
"So, I'm sorry, Advisor Hiruzen Sarutobi, I can't answer your second question because I don't know either!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi had no time to listen to Ren's rambling. He shoved Utatane Koharu and tried to leave.
However, Ren quickly blocked Hiruzen Sarutobi's path and asked with a smile.
"Advisor Hiruzen Sarutobi, you haven't been given permission to leave. Where do you think you're going?"
"You..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi unleashed all his power in an instant. With a surge of Chakra, a gust of wind rose in the courtyard, even blowing a few leaves off the trees.
Ren was equally unwilling to be outdone. Although he felt there was a problem with the Chakra, there was nothing he could do. With four templates, even without much serious training, Ren 'Chakra reserves were far superior to Hiruzen Sarutobi's.
With the burst of Ren 'Chakra's previous Hiruzen Sarutobi were like a gentle breeze, this time it was like a raging storm.
One leaf, two leaves, but this leaf is not that leaf.
Even the robes of Utatane Koharu next to her, were being blown around by the wind.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's aura vanished instantly. He had no idea how strong Ren was; he only knew that Tomoki was much stronger than him!
"Uchiha Yushu, what do you want from me to let me out?"
Although Hiruzen Sarutobi was old, he was short in stature. At this moment, Ren looked down at Hiruzen Sarutobi and said.
"Advisor Hiruzen Sarutobi, you still refuse to admit that I am the Hokage?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi had absolutely no intention of getting involved with Ren at this moment; he just wanted to get to the clan's territory as quickly as possible.
Circumstances dictate the course of events, and forcing a breakthrough is futile. No matter how unwilling he was, Hiruzen Sarutobi had no choice but to follow Ren's lead.
Rare.
Hiruzen Sarutobi his hands in a fist salute and bowed his head as he spoke.
"Lord Hokage, please allow me to leave the Advisory Council now and head to the Sarutobi Clan's territory, no matter what..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi hesitated, unsure what promise to make to win Ren's heart. Without God perspective, and still unaware of the full picture Hiruzen Sarutobi remained unsure of Ren's true intentions, hence his hesitation.
However, unexpectedly...
Ren nodded and then said.
"I agree!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly raised his head, as if to confirm whether what he had just seen was an illusion.
All I could see was Ren's radiant smile.
"Go, Advisor Hiruzen Sarutobi, I agree."
Hiruzen Sarutobi's surprise and doubt did not escape Ren's eyes, and Ren reiterated his statement with certainty.
Surprise?
In just a moment, after receiving confirmation again, Hiruzen Sarutobi had no time to think and vanished from the spot.
A short figure rushed out of the Advisory Council and sped towards the Sarutobi Clan Grounds.
A trail of blood was left behind!
