In truth, Seiichi's actions just now had made things perfectly clear.
Everyone else had a choice.
But the Sarutobi Clan had none!
"I've had enough of playing house with you.
I'll give you until the count of three.
Anyone who wants to follow us Uchiha can leave now and wait at home for instructions from the Uchiha.
Anyone who wants to die can stay. I'll send you off with the Sarutobi Clan so you won't be bored on the road."
"The countdown starts now!
Three!
Two!
One!"
After saying "one," Seiichi raised his right hand and formed a black energy sphere the size of a basketball.
"Infinite Hole!"
With a flick of his raised hand, Seiichi sent the black energy sphere toward the Sarutobi Clan's gathering.

Then the energy sphere exploded violently.
Yet the explosion caused no destructive damage.
Instead, it split into tiny black spheres the size of marbles, each an ordinary centimeter in diameter.
These marble-sized black spheres flew toward individual Sarutobi clansmen at speeds almost impossible for ordinary eyes to follow.
When the little black spheres touched someone, they neither exploded nor inflicted any sort of piercing wound.

The entire process was both swift and eerie.
Of everyone present, aside from the Uchiha clansmen who had awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, only Minato saw it.
But seeing it was one thing; actually
