Chapter 85

Let's Go Together

"You can't just question it because you want to."

"Then I also question whether Jiraiya deliberately let Orochimaru go and didn't seriously pursue him all these years... and whether Tsunade, dissatisfied with the late Fourth Hokage, deliberately left Konoha, gambled everywhere, and ruined Konoha's reputation."

Elder Xiongji said slowly.

He knew the truth about the investiture; Junichi had analyzed the daimyo's psychology with him.

This edict was entirely the will of the daimyo.

Unfortunately, Jiraiya and Tsunade couldn't see clearly.

"Shut up, you old man!" Tsunade's expression changed drastically upon hearing this.

"Elder Yukichi, please don't slander us like this. Tsunade and I are absolutely thinking of the village!" Jiraiya's expression also changed slightly.

Elder Xiongji immediately laughed and sneered, "You can question others, but others can't question you?"

"Is this the Will of Fire that Hiruzen monkey always touted?"

"That's hilarious."

Tsunade and Jiraiya's faces turned ashen.

The surrounding Jonin also had strange expressions.

"Alright, alright." Zhun said, drawing everyone's attention to himself, and said with a faint smile, "I understand your doubts."

He looked at Tsunade and Jiraiya.

Upon hearing this, the two were somewhat surprised and uncertain.

"However, you two should think about the consequences." Junichi said casually, "If your verification fails, it means you are questioning the Daimyo and me, the Fifth Hokage."

"At that time, the two of you will no longer be respected seniors."

"Instead, they are sinners, traitors, rebels, schemers..."

Zhunyi pronounced each title.

Tsunade and Jiraiya's expressions darkened further.

"In short, you can decide for yourselves." Jun waved his hand dismissively, "but you'll have to bear the consequences yourself."

Tsunade and Jiraiya fell silent.

They looked around at the other Jonin.

Everyone avoided eye contact.

They were scared.

Since Junichi Uchiha made his debut, he has never been defeated; on the contrary, all his enemies have perished.

Even the Fifth Hokage election plan was thwarted by Junichi using the Daimyo's edict.

They developed a deep fear of Junichi.

I dare not do anything more.

"you……"

Tsunade laughed angrily, shook her head in disappointment, and no longer had any expectations of these people.

She turned to look at Nara Shikaku in the crowd.

"Shikaku, bring your men and come with me!" Tsunade ordered.

Nara Shikaku looked bitter.

He bet too much, so he had no choice but to follow suit.

But what would be the Uchiha clan's reaction if they did this?

"Go ahead, Shikaku." Junichi's nonchalant voice came through, and he laughed, "Ino, Shika, and Cho are all going. Bring your kids along too, so they can see the world beforehand."

"With prolonged peace, many children no longer understand the suffering of their ancestors."

"I should really study this properly."

These words made Nara Shikaku turn pale and tremble all over.

Should they bring their children?

The Uchiha clan is determined to wipe them out completely!

"Come with me, Shikaku." Tsunade stared intently at Shikaku, clenching her fist. "With Jiraiya and me here, we will absolutely not let certain people harm you!"

"Trust me, Shikaku, I will set off with Tsunade," Jiraiya said solemnly.

Nara Shikaku glanced at Jiraiya and Tsunade, then at Junichi, who seemed unconcerned.

My heart is filled with bitterness, but I cannot express it.

Tsunade and Jiraiya might be able to protect him, but what about the other members of the Ino-Shika-Cho trio?

Besides, he didn't believe that Junichi Uchiha was completely unprepared with the Daimyo.

"……yes."

But Nara Shikaku agreed anyway.

He's already on the ship; there's no way out, he has no choice but to go with him.

"Does anyone else have any objections?" Junichi smiled and looked at the other Jonin, saying gently, "You can go with Jiraiya and Tsunade."

"I will absolutely not stop them."

Tsunade and Jiraiya also looked at the others.

However, the ninjas on the field trembled and dared not raise their heads at all.

They'd be crazy to follow that.

It seems they really are going to "set off"!

"snort!"

Seeing that no one supported her, Tsunade snorted coldly, turned around, and strode out of the auditorium.

Jiraiya, the Senju clan, and the Ino-Shika-Cho trio all followed suit.

The other Jonin quickly made way for them, watching them leave, just as they had watched Hiruzen Sarutobi lead the Sarutobi clan away.

At this moment, it's as if the scene is being replayed.

Oh……

Junichi sneered inwardly, watching their retreating figures with a slightly cold look in his eyes.

Even traveling at full speed from Konoha to Kyoto would take a month.

One month.

That was enough for him to completely destroy Shisui's will.

"When you return, you won't be Tsunade and Jiraiya anymore, but two of my pawns," Junichi thought to himself.

He withdrew his gaze, looked at the remaining Jonin in the arena, and said calmly:

"The meeting continues."

……

……

After Tsunade and Jiraiya left Konoha with a group of people.

A major reshuffle began within Konoha.

For the first time, the Uchiha clan broke free from the constraints of the Guard Department, joined other departments, and held important positions.

Medical Department.

logistics department.

Administration Department.

Security Department.

Interrogation Department.

Ministry of Education.

All six departments were under the control of Zhunyi.

The dark side was also reorganized and replaced with new personnel.

Meanwhile, the ninja clans and commoners within the village also sent letters of invitation, surrendering themselves to Junichi.

It's as if everyone has forgotten about Tsunade and Jiraiya.

In this context.

The pig-deer-butterfly reacted even more intensely.

They sent a large number of human heads as a token of their visit.

……

Preparing to be a family.

In the tea room.

"Ino-Shika-Cho, they only sent a child to see me?" Junichi sipped his fragrant tea, looking at the boy in front of him with a half-smile.

Her signature pineapple-shaped hairstyle, long black hair, and narrow eyes.

It was none other than Nara Shikamaru, who was only 8 years old!

"Please forgive me, Hokage."

Although Nara Shikamaru was young, he answered clearly and methodically, saying, "The adults of the Ino-Shika-Cho families have done something wrong, and they have no face to see you, sir."

"I am a member of the new generation and have not yet participated in family affairs."

"We beg you, Hokage, to give us children a chance to choose the right path."

Boom!

After saying that, he kowtowed heavily, his forehead slamming into the floor and cracking.

Boom!Boom!

Beside them, Yamanaka Ino and Akimichi Choji, both eight years old, also kowtowed heavily to the ground.

These two were not as composed as Nara Shikamaru, and their faces showed barely concealed fear.

I dared not look directly at him.

As they spoke, their bodies trembled slightly, showing extreme fear.

"A chance to choose again?"

Zhunyi slowly savored the food, glancing at the box in front of the three of them.

In a box, 21 heads were being pickled.

The heads of 21 Sarutobi clan ninjas!

Not only that.

The other three boxes contained the heads of the three Jonin from the Nara, Yamanaka, and Akimichi clans, all of whom were key members who followed Hiruzen Sarutobi.

At this moment, they all died.

The Ino-Shika-Cho trio actually turned the tables and killed the Sarutobi clan, wiping out all the remaining members except for Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Furthermore, all the Jonin within the clan who had been promoted by Hiruzen Sarutobi committed suicide.

All for the sake of giving these three families a chance to survive!

"Quite decisive."

Junichi exclaimed in admiration.

The family is more important than the individual; for the survival of the family, any cost can be paid.

This kind of ruthlessness is uncommon, but it does exist.

However, very few people are willing to make the difficult decision to cut off their own arm.
