Kirigakure
Headquarters building of Great Tycoon Limited Company.
Mei Terumi, Fugaku, Shisui, Zabuza, and the members of the Gold Medal Squad gathered in the lobby on the first floor.
Besides the company executives, Orochimaru's team, who had just arrived in Kirigakure, were also quietly waiting to the side.
The terrifying aura emanating from the rooftop continued to emanate, but it was noticeably weaker than before.
Before Haruma went into seclusion, he had given instructions to Mei Terumi. And today was the day to go to the top floor to wake him up.
Mei Terumi and Ao exchanged a glance for a moment, then Mei frowned slightly and walked up the stairs.
The dark rooftop corridor resembled a gaping maw of an abyss, ready to devour anyone who might enter.
It was completely quiet, with only the faint, continuous sound of breathing remaining.
The pale gold door led directly to the source of the breathing sounds.
The oppressive atmosphere here is undoubtedly much heavier than on the first floor.
Mei Terumi forcibly suppressed the unease in her heart and solemnly knocked on the door!
The silent world inside the door.
Sensing her secretary approaching, Haruma, who was sitting cross-legged in the center, slowly opened her eyes.
Deep black pupils, an appearance no different from before.
Instead of rushing out of the pass, Haruma first opened her long-unused personal system panel.

[Overall Combat Strength: Six Paths (High-Rank)]
Addendum: Devouring planets! A terrifying clan that transcends death! The Shinobi World is merely the beginning of their domination of the stars!
Advancement beyond the Six Paths is truly expensive!
He poured all his savings into it, and his strength only increased by two minor levels; he's still quite a distance from his peak!
Looking at the two or three digits in her online store balance, Haruma, who had once again become penniless, smacked her lips in annoyance.
"Knock knock!"
A knock sounded on the door.
Haruma, yawning as she came to her senses, got up and stretched.
Without noticing, on Haruma, I clenched my fist a little too tightly!
The ferocious aura honed over seven days in the spiritual realm slightly overflowed as Haruma clenched his fist!
"Click, click!"
Haruma paused, her lips twitching as she silently gazed out the window.
The crisp sound of shattering glass echoed from the thirty-third floor all the way down to the first floor!
The building's exterior is also covered by a lightning bolt-shaped crack that runs half a meter wide from the top floor!
The damage to the items was secondary; what mattered to the crowd waiting on the first floor was a sharp crack.
The oppressive force, which was initially manageable, suddenly amplified by more than ten times!
Let alone the already disintegrated Water Suigetsu,
Even Kimimaro of the squad, was unable to stand under this oppressive force and could only kneel on one knee!
In Orochimaru's team, there was a boy named Jūgo.
While waiting on the first floor, the oppressive aura emanating from the figure faintly hinted at a transformation by Cursed Seal!
But this sudden change caused Jūgo, who was bound by iron chains, to fall to the ground with a "snap!"
Sasuke, Karin, and the other kids are in a similar state.
In the blink of an eye, the lobby on the first floor was also a mess of potholes and debris.
Only Fugaku, Shisui, Orochimaru, Zabuza managed to perform reasonably well.
Although she could still control her body, in that brief moment...
Cold sweat poured down their foreheads, and their clothes were soaked.
Fortunately, this terrifying aura came and went quickly.
Sorry, I couldn't control myself for a moment.
Haruma, holding the unconscious Mei Terumi in her arms, floated down from the rooftop to the ground.
The others below had only embarrassed themselves.
But it Mei Terumi, who was standing in front of the main gate on the rooftop, who truly suffered.
Even before she could stabilize her Kage Level strength, she was closest to that terrifying pressure...
She fainted on the spot.
Although in the spiritual world, they have already become familiar with and able to control the surging power.
But after being influenced by Might Guy's passion for seven days, Haruma still lost control for a moment!
Seeing his remaining balance in the store, he unexpectedly let out a tiny bit of fighting spirit!
"Mmm~"
Mei Terumi, who had been healed by Yang Release Chakra, quickly woke up.
Noticing the strangeness in her body and gaze, Mei Terumi blushed and jumped out of Haruma's arms.
Wood Release, Earth Release...
The severely damaged 100-meter-tall building was completely renovated in less than a minute.
At least that's how it appears.
On the empty rooftop, Haruma and the others seemed to be waiting for something.
Mei Terumi stood at the front of the line, her face slightly flushed, making someone feel awkward.
"Thump, thump, thump!"
Company employees dressed Anbu escorted in four ordinary-looking waiters dressed in bar uniforms.
Why are you arresting us?!
"My lords, we are law-abiding citizens!"
"Yes, yes, I've been working at Ichifan Izakaya for several years now, and I've never done anything wrong!"
Looking at the group of people clamoring and protesting their innocence, the members of Kirigakure felt that they looked somewhat familiar.
Unlike spies from other countries, he was indeed an ordinary person who had worked in the Kirigakure for several years.
"Shut your mouths, you're making a racket."
Haruma was picking at her ears, completely ignoring the others.
Back when White Zetsu Clone infiltrated the village, Haruma had already secretly registered several people.
They would inquire about everything in the village, and those who didn't work would be killed.
Those who work as laborers or waiters can live longer.
The condition is that you can't resign, otherwise your death is imminent.
White Zetsu's clones are indeed powerful; even the Byakugan cannot distinguish them.
But in the eyes of Haruma, and in the perception of the Mayfly that are almost everywhere in the thick fog.
These people were like light bulbs in the dark, flashing non-stop.
Rich Man Bridge
The bridge, about 100 meters wide, was used by ninjas from various countries, as well as merchants, in addition to those from the Hidden Kirigakure Village.
After crossing the middle of the bridge, three groups of Kirigakure Anbu over Yagura's duties and became toll collectors here.
After paying the toll, the next step forward leads to an area shrouded in thick white fog!
Nagato, keeping it a secret from Konan, plans to explore Kirigakure alone.
Disguised, he followed in a merchant's procession, his body already stepping into the white mist.
Black and White Zetsu, who were secretly following, had a complicated expression, unsure whether they should continue to follow.
In the past, once the clones officially stepped into the area shrouded in white mist, they never returned.
There's still plenty of time; if a plan fails, we can start over.
But one only has one life.
After hesitating for a long time, Black Zetsu simply conjured a clone and followed along with the bridge toll.
It's not that I'm afraid of death.
However, the key to lifting the lockdown on his mother must be accomplished by himself!
