Konoha-Uchiha Academy
Inside an imposing classroom, the blackboard read: "Seventh academy competition review meeting."
Seated at the head was Fugaku's trusted general, Uchiha Yao.
Shunji and Yashiro, who had managed the academy, had gone to the front lines. For both the academy and Fugaku, it was a double blessing!
