"Move aside! Don't block the way! Where are the medical ninjas?"

"Suzaku, hang in there!"

"You said you would become the strongest Uchiha and become Hokage! Your dream hasn't come true yet, so how can you die so easily? Don't lie to me, or I'll never forgive you, you bastard!"

"Still, if people don't have dreams, what's the difference between them and salted fish?"

It condensed into a strange black, mist-like flame.

When Suzaku focused his thoughts on the black flame, countless profound pieces of information surged into his mind.

"[Chaos Flame]."

The Third Kazekage had gone missing, leaving Sunagakure
