"Huh?" Hyuga Akira tilted his head, full of questions. He had been farming away perfectly well here, so why were they sending him back to Konoha?
Even switching battlefields would have been fine.
"I don't need to rest and recuperate." Hyuga Akira wanted to refuse. He still had over four hundred thousand experience points to farm.
"These are Lord Hokage's orders. You are to escort the wounded unit and depart immediately."
"Can I refuse?"
"No!!"
Hyuga Akira was going a little crazy. That old bastard Hiruzen Sarutobi was definitely doing this on purpose!!!
But what else could he do? He couldn't fight those above him.
"Besides, you can take the Chunin Ninja Exams while you're back." Crow patted Hyuga Akira's shoulder. Judging by his performance on the battlefield, he should have been promoted to Special Jōnin long ago.

"Lord Danzo's orders are for you to obey Lord Hokage." Crow shrugged, indicating that there was nothing he could do.
Hyuga Akira clenched his fists hard.
