Just when everyone thought the matter was over, the Konoha barrier was suddenly triggered again, and the figures of Minazuki Yuzuru and Arashi reappeared, neither of them in good condition at the moment.
Minazuki Yuzuru's clothes were somewhat torn, and his breathing became noticeably rapid. As for Mr. Arashi, his body was trembling, and his hands were shaking uncontrollably.
"It seems your Storm Release isn't as effective as my Ice Release."
Yuzuru's acting skills exploded at this moment.
He played two roles, so it would be a shame not to give him a Best Actor award.
"Your strength is truly terrifying, especially considering your young age. However, you've made a mistake; I didn't come alone."
Arashi looked at Minazuki Yuzuru and said.
Just then, a figure appeared not far away, with his hands placed in front of his chest, and white light gathering between them.
" Dust Release: Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!"
Faced with the sudden beam of light, Yuzuru immediately jumped away, and Lan followed up with a Storm Release, successfully "injuring" Minazuki Yuzuru.
"Next time, I'll kill you first."
After he finished speaking, a huge ice ball appeared in the sky above Konoha, larger than the entire Konoha.
"This is a gift for you, no need to thank me."
After saying that, Yuzuru disappeared from the scene.
Lan didn't chase after it. Instead, he used his Storm Release to separate the ice ball. Then, together with the person next to him, the two of them revealed the Scientific Ninja Tool on their arms.
" Scorch Release: Flame Tornado!"
Two enormous fire tornadoes were unleashed, directly confronting the massive ice sphere.
In an instant, the entire Konoha was shrouded in water vapor, just like the Kirigakure of the past.
Taking advantage of this time, some people started to have ulterior motives.
After all, in this situation, anything can be covered up. In addition, the Yamanaka Clan has disappeared, and the Uchiha Clan is gone too. Konoha's interrogation capabilities are no longer as formidable.
And so, this scene unfolded.
The two in the sky were doing their best to deal with the ice ball, while the Konoha villagers on the ground and the outsiders who came to Konoha during the Chunin Exams began to do some shady things.
Konoha's Anbu and ninjas also began to get busy.
But the most terrifying thing is not these outsiders, but some troublemakers among the local residents of Konoha.
Ninjas have always been judged solely on strength, neglecting moral character; their conduct and ethics are appallingly low.
In situations with extremely low visibility, what happens is self-evident: revenge is taken, everyone becomes a thief, and everything is for money.
Yuzuru, watching from the sky, was observing this scene with great interest.
To be honest, these troublemakers from Konoha were truly a source of amusement.
That being said, Yuzuru would also eliminate anyone who approached the Senju Clan's territory without hesitation.
Everything else is fine, but not the Senju base. There are many valuable documents and historical records there, and it would also be a way to give Tsunade an explanation. When she finds out, she might get excited and agree to Yuzuru's long-standing request.
The thought of being attacked from both sides by Tsunade made Yuzuru groan softly.
After a busy day, the ice hockey puck finally disappeared, giving Mr. Lan and another guardian from the nearby Academy a chance to catch their breath.
"Gentlemen, please come to Konoha and rest. We are very grateful to you two this time; otherwise, Konoha might have suffered a catastrophic disaster."
Suddenly, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu stepped forward and said.
"No need, we just received a message and came to deal with Minazuki Yuzuru."
"Helping you was just a small favor. If you really want to thank someone, thank Yuki Haku. He was an outstanding graduate of the Academy last year. He contacted us using the communicator, which is why we were able to arrive in time."
" Yuki Haku, that genius ninja from Kirigakure?"
"That's right."
"Alright, we'll be leaving now. You have a lot to do in Konoha, so we won't disturb you any longer."
After saying that, the two left Konoha and used Space-Time Ninjutsu to leave the area.
" The Sea Region Academy is truly grateful to them."
Mitokado Homura watched the two leave and sighed.
"Yes, who would have thought that Minazuki Yuzuru would be that strong? Even the Dead Demon Seal couldn't defeat him."
Koharu, who Utatane Koharu, chimed in.
"What do we do next? Hiruzen is definitely not going to make it. Although he escaped Shinigami, he was already old, and now I'm afraid..."
"How about Danzo?"
"Utatane Koharu tentatively asked.
"That's absolutely unacceptable. Don't forget, Danzo didn't do anything this time either, and besides, everyone in the village heard what Yuzuru said. There's no way he could possibly do that."
Mitokado Homura's words immediately dispelled that idea.
"Now, there's really hardly anyone left."
Utatane Koharu, also sighed.
"Actually, there's one more."
Mitokado Homura looked into the distance.
"Who? Wait, who are you talking to?"
"Yes, it can only be him, Jiraiya."
Two days later, Konoha had not yet recovered from the suffering brought by Minazuki Yuzuru. The streets were filled with broken houses, and many people could only set up temporary tents.
In Konoha Hospital, Hiruzen Sarutobi slowly woke up.
Mitokado Homura and the others who were standing guard nearby immediately surrounded them.
" Hiruzen, you're awake."
"Don't push yourself. Your body is in a state of extreme depletion. Although Shinigami didn't take your life, it has severely damaged your vitality."
Upon hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi remained silent, but slowly sat up, leaned against the pillow at the head of the bed, and turned to look out the window.
At this time, Konoha was desolate.
What happened after I fainted?
He stared for a long time before slowly speaking.
Mitokado Homura told him everything that happened afterward, including what Minazuki Yuzuru had said.
"I see."
Looking at the Hokage Rock, which was so rotten that it was unrecognizable, Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes were filled with heartache.
He closed his eyes and remained silent for a while, calming his grief. Then he opened his eyes and looked at Mitokado Homura.
"Where Danzo? Summon him here immediately!"
"This... Hiruzen, isn't it inappropriate to call him that now?"
Mitokado Homura couldn't help but say.
"The village is in this state, and he's still hiding. How long is he going to hide?"
"Make him release his Wood Release ninja immediately to help rebuild the village, or don't blame me for showing no mercy!"
Upon hearing this, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu were utterly shocked.
"What did you say? Wood Release ninja? In Danzo's hands?"
" Hiruzen, why didn't you tell us about this sooner?"
"What's the point of saying anything? Will Danzo admit it? Will he willingly release them?"
"Tell him to get over here right now. If he dares to refuse again, don't blame me for being heartless. At this point, he's still eyeing the Hokage Position. Does he even deserve it?"
Hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's unprecedented tone, for a moment, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu seemed to see the former Shinobi Hero.
"Okay, I'll go right away!"
