Kisame Lost to Might Guy

Of course, this doesn't mean that Jonin and Special Jonin are particularly awesome.

Having this identity, however, means...

He officially joined Konoha and became a member of the Konoha. That was an essential step on the path to becoming Naruto... after he became a Jonin.

He can then build his own power base.

Once some powerful figures join him online, he'll have a legitimate presence in Konoha. Of course, it has to be done that way. Right now, his reputation in Konoha isn't high enough... but after he helps Konoha overcome two crises and becomes a hero of Konoha...

Everything will then fall into place.

Even if some people have opinions, they will just keep them to themselves. And those who do speak up will not have a decisive impact.

However, it's too early to say anything about that.

The most important thing now is how to resolve this current situation.

Of course, he wasn't the one with the headache.

It was Shimura Danzo.

Even though he was already at the Kage-level, he still felt his scalp tingle when facing Kakashi, Might Guy, Kurenai Yuhi, Asuma Sarutobi, Hayate Gekko, and Shisui Mitarashi.

However, he was still one of Konoha's top figures.

He also understood that today's hurdle would likely be difficult to overcome.

So he clapped his hands.

In an instant, three figures appeared and stood behind him.

The three men were dressed in contrasting styles: one wore a black cloak and sunglasses, with a purple mark tattooed on his right cheek; another wore a protective suit that covered almost his entire body; and the third was tall with orange-yellow side-parted hair tied in a high, short ponytail, golden eyes, and a square jaw. He wore a headband with the Konoha symbol on his forehead, a brown sleeveless jacket, a short-sleeved outer garment, black gloves, and black trousers. He also carried a katana on his back.

Upon seeing these three, Moke's eyes flickered.

This is Danzō's strongest subordinate and his strongest bodyguard.

Ryūma Aburame, Torune Aburame, and Fū Yamanaka.

These three individuals came from the Aburame Clan and Yamanaka families, respectively.

Ryūma Aburame: Taciturn and prefers to act alone, he possesses his clan's secret ninjutsu, which allows him to feed "Kikaichū" with his own chakra, letting the insects live inside his body and using them for attack, defense, and reconnaissance. His hobby is collecting insects.

Torune Aburame possesses a unique ability within his clan. His body harbors highly toxic nano-sized insects, to which he has antibodies. If another person is infected with this toxin, they will die from the destruction of their cells. These insects can only exist within biological cells, reproducing by damaging cells; once the host dies, the insects also perish.

Because of Torune Aburame's special ability, these poisonous insects can only survive inside his body. That's why he wears a protective suit that almost covers his entire body. This is also why he has never participated in the Chunin Exams; it's not that he didn't want to participate, but that he wasn't allowed to.

Fū Yamanaka is from the Yamanaka Clan, which, while not as Hyūga as the Yamanaka Clan, is still a highly respected family in Konoha. Their ancestral secret technique is a mental technique that uses powerful mental energy to control the enemy's actions, making the enemy unable to control their own body. They also possess powerful sensory abilities, and members of the Yamanaka Clan have a strong talent for intelligence gathering and target tracking.

The mountains not only possess family-inherited secret techniques, but also extremely powerful swordsmanship and formidable close-combat abilities.

It must be said that these three are all very special and extremely powerful.

There's a reason why he was valued by Shimura Danzo and developed into one of his most capable subordinates.

"Interesting..."

When Kakashi, Might Guy, Kurenai Yuhi, Asuma Sarutobi, Hayate Gekko, Anko Mitarashi saw them appear, their pupils involuntarily contracting. Given their status and strength, they knew something about these three.

Therefore, how could one not be wary?

However, no matter how much they feared it, they couldn't suppress the raging fire in their hearts at this moment.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, Homura Mitokado, and Koharu Utatane also had slight changes in expression, because Shimura Danzo summoned Ryūma Aburame, Torune Aburame, and Fū Yamanaka.

This is clearly a case of wanting to fight head-on.

At any other time, they definitely wouldn't have interfered, but now...

Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but speak up, "You guys should calm down first, or..."

Unfortunately, before he could finish speaking, Moke interrupted him abruptly. He turned to Kakashi, Kurenai Yuhi, Asuma Sarutobi, Hayate Gekko, Anko Mitarashi, saying, "If you intend to make a move now, I'll hold off these three for you."

After saying that, he added, "Putting aside our positions, from an outsider's perspective, now is the best time to deal with this old scoundrel... The Third Generation and the two advisors will absolutely not lend a hand at this time."

Because if they help, there are only two outcomes. Either they will wipe out all of you second-generation leaders of Konoha, but if they do that, Konoha will face a generational gap, which is tantamount to destroying Konoha's future.

They would absolutely not do that.

Alternatively, they can stand by and watch, waiting for you to take revenge on your enemies.

Moreover, if you don't make up your minds to kill this old schemer now, given his personality, it won't be easy to kill him later. He will definitely try every means to win over some of Konoha's forces to become his allies. If you then try to take him down, Konoha will suffer a great loss.

Unless you can suppress this deep-seated hatred.

However, given that old fox's methods, even if you tolerate it, he will absolutely not let it go. He will definitely use the same methods he used on your fathers to deal with you... without any mercy."

Upon hearing Moke's words, a murderous glint flashed in the eyes of Kakashi, Kurenai Yuhi, Asuma Sarutobi, Hayate Gekko, Anko Mitarashi.

At this moment, their murderous intent erupted completely.

"Shut up!"

Shimura Danzo anxious and turned to shout at Moke.

But in Moke's eyes, this was a sign of incompetence. So, Moke scoffed and then said, "Of course, I know what you're worried about. It's just that it's the Chunin Exams now, and there are a lot of ninjas from other villages in the village. You're afraid that if you cause a disturbance, something unexpected will happen."

In particular, Orochimaru is still eyeing the situation covetously.

Actually, you can rest assured about all of this. Orochimaru is the Third Hokage's disciple; he can handle him. As for the others, I'll take care of them.

Besides, you all experienced the battle that led to the fall of the Fourth Hokage. Did you see Shimura Danzo during that battle?

Did you even see a glimpse of his subordinates?

Therefore, if Konoha is really in trouble this time, it's best to deal with him first, because this guy is a cancer in Konoha. If he's not eliminated... I'm afraid the entire Konoha will be implicated."

Hiruzen Sarutobi, Homura Mitokado, Koharu Utatane could no longer hold back:
