Ino Yamanaka: "Hahaha~"
Ino Yamanaka: "As expected, White Zetsu is cutest in front of Naruto with his black-rimmed glasses~"
Sakura Haruno: "Mmm~"
Kurotsuchi: "Hmm...shouldn't our focus be on the Goddess of the Rabbit right now?"
Mei Terumi: "Hehehe~"
Mei Terumi: "Little Kurotsuchi, how long do you think this question will keep Naruto in his dark circles under his eyes?"
Kurotsuchi: "That makes sense~"
Kurotsuchi: "Perhaps, once Naruto with black frames witnesses the White Zetsu's betrayal firsthand, he'll take this issue seriously."
Tobirama Senju: "Yes, I didn't!"
Tobirama Senju: "Um, Madara, could you please tell me how to create White Zetsu?"
Uchiha Madara: ...
Hashirama Senju: Madara said that he could create it using my cells and his cells, through something... um... the Gedo Mazo.
Uchiha Madara: ...
Uchiha Izuna: Big brother, can't you see it?
Uchiha Izuna: Senju Hashirama was just pretending to be stupid!
Uchiha Izuna: He's lying to you!
Madara Uchiha: Alright, Izuna, stop talking.
Uchiha Izuna: Big brother?!
Madara Uchiha: I know what I'm doing, don't worry.
Pure Land World.
Madara Uchiha took a deep breath.
His mindset has indeed changed.
White Zetsu wasn't created by him?
That Black Zetsu...
Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
He would never lie to himself.
Black Zetsu is a product of his own will.
There's no reason to deceive yourself.
There must be more to the story.
Thinking it over, Madara Uchiha forcibly pulled himself back to his senses.
...
The large screen with its black border continues to display the image:
[Kamui.]
[Whoosh whoosh whoosh—]
[Obito Uchiha is carrying the corpse of a White Zetsu in one hand.]
[Activate Divine Might directly.]
A spiral-shaped spatial fluctuation appeared in front of us.
Then, carrying the White Zetsu's corpse, he entered the Kamui dimension.
Right now, it has no interest in investigating the situation in Konoha.
The White Zetsu's abnormality is serious and must be taken very seriously!
[This has absolutely nothing to do with Naruto Uzumaki.]
Why did he suddenly go crazy?
Why did they suddenly betray us?
This question has no beginning or end.
There's truly no plausible reason that could be given for Obito Uchiha.
He glanced down at the white Zetsu, who was still clutching his arm tightly even after death.
Close your eyes and take a deep breath.
"Perhaps the White Zetsu and Black Zetsu themselves know the answer."
"Hopefully, this isn't the worst-case scenario."
[...]
On the other side.
The Konoha police patrol near the arena.
Hearing the noise, I initially thought it was just those low-ranking ninjas making a commotion again.
[Then I looked up and saw...]
Thick smoke began to rise from the spot where Hiruzen Sarutobi had been sitting.
This is outrageous!
They rushed in immediately.
[Upon seeing that all the audience members in the stands had fallen asleep...]
The entire Konoha Guard was stunned.
Then, his gaze quickly swept around the room.
[Pointing at the ANBU ninjas: "You, come and help!"]
"Leave some people down below to keep watch."
"The rest of you, come with me upstairs to check on the daimyo's situation!"
The squad leader of the Konoha Guard quickly issued the order.
[Directly ordering ANBU ninjas.]
In their view.
[The entire village of Konoha belongs to the Sarutobi clan.]
[Besides, the Anbu ninjas are a direct subordinate unit of the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.]
[At this moment, he is issuing orders in an absolute superior position, with an unquestionable tone.]
However.
What they didn't expect was...
The group of ANBU ninjas simply watched them silently.
[They showed absolutely no intention of moving.]
["asshole!"]
"Didn't you hear me?!"
[The Konoha Guard squad leader was enraged.]
The remaining members of the Konoha Guard also showed angry expressions on their faces.
["yes."]
Just as the atmosphere turned eerie...
A member of the ANBU ninja suddenly responded.
[Seeing this.]
The Konoha police officers, who had been prepared to act at any moment, all breathed a sigh of relief.
These ANBU ninjas are quite skilled.
Facing them won't be easy.
The squad leader of the Konoha Guard secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Given the current unclear situation, it's best to refrain from taking action for now.
[He gave the others a look.]
The Konoha police officers nodded in agreement.
Let's set aside the previous offensive behavior for now.
We'll settle the score properly after this is over!
"You, you, and you, stay and see these spectators."
"The rest of you, follow me!"
The Konoha police squad leader randomly selected three ANBU ninja to stay behind.
He then led his men towards the high platform.
[BOOM—!!!]
Just then.
Everyone noticed.
[Above the platform.]
The four Sound Ninja disguised as Kazekage's guards made their move.
[But it looks very imposing.]
However, he was easily repelled by Hiruzen Sarutobi.
[The plane landed on the roof from four directions.]
[good. ]
Hiruzen Sarutobi was forced onto the rooftop.
[Whoosh—]
Orochimaru, having shed his disguise as the Fourth Kazekage, chuckled a few times while rubbing his forehead.
[Then, in a flash, he appeared in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi.]
It blocked its view and interrupted its thoughts.
[And those four Sound Ninja who were just repelled by Hiruzen Sarutobi.]
[His lips were slightly upturned.]
[Begin forming hand seals at the four corners of the roof.]
["not good!"]
The Konoha Guard squad leader's expression changed drastically.
[He randomly pointed to an ANBU ninja.]
"You, go protect the Daimyo and the others!"
"The rest of you, come with me to support the Hokage!"
"Be quick..."
[Pfft—]
[The Konoha Guard squad leader had barely finished speaking.]
The sound then abruptly stopped.
A strange sound entered my ears.
Immediately afterward, the Konoha Guard squad leader seemed to sense something.
[He slowly turned his head, looking at the animal mask worn on the face by the ANBU ninja.]
His expression was stiff.
[He paused.]
[Then his face was filled with disbelief and a look of rage.]
["Why?!"]
[Look down.]
[Then the ANBU ninja appeared to be holding a kunai in his hand.]
[Tick-tock—]
At that moment, blood flowed down the kunai and into the hands of the ANBU ninja.
The lines converge into a point, and a drop of blood falls to the ground.
[A drop fell on the feet of the Konoha Guard squad leader.]
The ANBU ninja did not answer him.
The captain of the Konoha Guard realized that he had been stabbed in the kidney with a kunai.
A raging fire surged within his chest.
"Damn it!"
[Splash—]
[The Konoha police squad leader was about to utter some harsh words before striking.]
I never expected this.
The ANBU ninja standing behind him showed no martial ethics whatsoever.
They wouldn't even let him speak.
A flash of light.
The kunai that had just been inserted into the waist of the Konoha Guard squad leader pierced his throat.
[Pawn! ]
