Bang!
The door to the Hokage's Office was pushed open.
"Brother Hokage, you wanted me again...
Huh?"
Bieshu Feifan burst in, only to find that Hiruzen Sarutobi wasn't in the Hokage's Office.
Even the desk was gone.
There were no chairs or stools either.
The room was completely empty, as if it had been robbed.
Just as Bieshu Feifan stood there in a daze,
the ceiling of the Hokage's Office rippled, and Hiruzen Sarutobi's face emerged.
He looked down at Bieshu Feifan from above.
"Feifan, wait a moment."
With that, Hiruzen Sarutobi withdrew into the wall.
Bieshu Feifan was genuinely stunned. What was Hiruzen Sarutobi doing?
Why was he becoming more and more like Orochimaru?
"Brother, where am I supposed to sit?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi ignored him.
"Say something, brother!"
But Hiruzen Sarutobi stayed tucked inside the ceiling,
neither showing himself nor speaking.
Bieshu Feifan cursed Hiruzen Sarutobi hundreds of times in his mind.
What was this bastard playing at?
If he didn't want to see me, why summon me here?
Couldn't he just have the Anbu pass on whatever he wanted to say?
Hidden in the ceiling with Earth Release, Hiruzen Sarutobi watched the bewildered Bieshu Feifan and finally broke into a silent smile.
At last, in a head-on confrontation,
he had beaten Bieshu Feifan for once.
Bieshu Feifan thought for a long time but couldn't figure out what madness had come over Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Though he couldn't understand Hiruzen Sarutobi's thinking, that didn't matter.
There were plenty of ways to annoy Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Bieshu Feifan took a lap around the empty Hokage's Office,
then turned off the lights and climbed out the window.
He wrapped the curtain around his head and swung around with his entire body dangling outside.
At first, the people passing below the Hokage Building didn't
