As night fell, the bright moon hung high in the sky.
Konoha, Hokage Tower.
Minato was in his office, sternly writing three letters addressed to Kirigakure, Sunagakure, and Otogakure.
Even though the Konoha Crush Plan is over, the matter was far from settled. It can even be said that it has just begun!
'Kirigakure, Sunagakure, and Otogakure would have to pay a heavy price for this so-called Konoha Crush plan!'
Minato's eyes glead with determination!
As for the Land of Sky, they had woven their own cocoon and had finally disappeared from the annals of history this ti!
"Hokage-sama, what should we do with the Chunin Exam's participants and their accompanying adult Shinobi?" An Anbu's mber asked as he entered, holding a few sheets of paper.
Minato took the papers and looked at them. The first na on the list was i, followed by Suigetsu, Haku, and other Kirigakure's participants, then Baki, Kankuro, and Temari from Sunagakure, and finally the Shinobi from Otogakure. Participants from other villages, of course, did not appear on these lists.
Minato carefully reviewed the nas, then slowly muttered: "Release all those confird not to be involved in the incident."
"All of them?" The Anbu's mber asked in shock.
Minato nodded firmly.
In fact, Minato knows that Kirigakure's Suigetsu and Haku, as well as Sunagakure's Kankuro and Temari, are all well-known figures of the younger generation of their respective villages. And if he killed them here, it definitely would be a significant blow to Kirigakure and Sunagakure!
And even if Minato does this, no one in the Shinobi World can accuse him even a single sentence!
However, while killing them might satisfy a thirst for vengeance, it won't be conductive to Minato's plans!
Minato looked down at the three letters he had written and said, "Send these three letters as quickly as possible."
"Yes!"
Not long after the Anbu's mber left, Anbu Commander, Eagle, Kanpū, and Ibiki arrived together.
Seeing them, Minato's eyes lit up, and he asked: "Is there any progress with Obito's interrogation?"
The head of Torture and Interrogation Force, Morino Ibiki, shook his head with a grim expression: "I'm sorry, Hokage-sama. I have used every thod available, but Uchiha Obito has not uttered a single word."
"Every thod?" Minato looked at him hesitantly.
Ibiki nodded: "Yes, including torture, temptation, Genjutsu, Mind Reading Technique, and even death threats. But none of these could shake Uchiha Obito. I'm sorry to have disappointed you, Hokage-sama."
Ibiki knelt on one knee, ready to accept punishnt.
Minato seed to recall sothing and said: "It's not your fault. Even Shisui's Kotoamatsukami couldn't influence Obito…"
When he said this, Minato frowned, 'If the reason Obito could be immune to Kotoamatsukami is because he also owns Mangekyo, now that his eye has been removed, the Kotoamatsukami should work, right?'
'Or, had Obito already broken free from Shisui's Kotoamatsukami?'
Minato pondered for a mont and then said: "Eagle, thoroughly check Obito's body. If you find anything, report it to imdiately!"
"Yes!"
After Eagle and Ibiki left, only Minato and Kanpū remained in the office.
Minato imdiately shared his previous speculations with Kanpū.
After hearing them, Kanpū was dumbfounded.
'It turns out that the real master of the Abyss is Uchiha Madara!'
'It turned out that Uchiha Madara was absorbing Kekkei Genkai Shinobi into the Abyss for the purpose of study the fusion and evolution of Kekkei Genkai to rge the Sage Body and Sage Eyes.'
'I almost believed it!'
"Kanpū, you also think this is very likely, right?" Minato looked at him with shining eyes.
At this mont, Minato felt that his wisdom had reached its peak!
After all, even Kanpū was dumbfounded by his speculation!
Kanpū instinctively nodded, "Hokage-sama, your hypothesis is truly… brilliant!"
'It's as brilliant as Bulbasaur eating Crispy Chips in Mickey's Clubhouse—brilliant to the core!'
'I wonder if Madara's coffin board is sturdy enough…' Kanpū forced a smile.
Minato seed to 'see through' Kanpū's thoughts and smiled reassuringly, "Although the leader of the Abyss is most likely Uchiha Madara, Kanpū, don't worry. Even if Uchiha Madara is still alive, he's at least a hundred years old by now. At his age, it is impossible for him to have the strength to suppress the Shinobi World. He might not even be your match."
Hehehe…
Kanpū forced a dry laugh.
'Am I afraid of Uchiha Madara?'
'Of course I… well, I'm really scared.'
'Otherwise, what else can I feel?'
The two of them then talked about matters related to the Abyss. Kanpū saw that it was not early anymore and was about to leave, when suddenly, an Anbu's mber ca in again.
"Hokage-sama, we found traces of a Biju battle two hundred kiloters away." The Anbu's mber said solemnly.
'Biju?'
Kanpu was startled, then suddenly rembered Gaara and the Biju inside him, Shukaku!
'How could I forget that guy?'
Kanpū reproached himself silently.
"What did you find?" Minato asked.
"Through trace analysis, we've confird the Biju as Shukaku, but…"
The Anbu's mber hesitated, then continued, "Based on the investigation on the scene, it was discovered that Shukaku seed to lose to the mysterious Shinobi that appeared suddenly, and was taken away by them."
"I see. Continue tracking." Minato ordered.
"Yes."
The Anbu's mber left.
Kanpū and Minato simultaneously exclaid, ""It's Akatsuki!""
They exchanged a knowing glance and shared a smirk.
"Oh right, Hokage-sama." Kanpū changed the subject and asked, "About the contestants from the three participating villages…"
After hearing the ntion of a Biju from the Anbu earlier, Kanpū suddenly rembered i, the beautiful girl.
"As long as they weren't involved in this incident, I won't trouble them."
Minato said with a smile, "Of course, if so of them don't want to leave, I can agree to let her stay."
'How embarrassing…' Kanpū let out a dry cough and said: "Hokage-sama, I'll take my leave."
Leaving Hokage Tower, Kanpū imdiately hurried to Ichigo hot spring, taking a familiar route through the back entrance straight into the courtyard where the Kirigakure's team stayed.
At this ti, the small courtyard is very quiet. Haku and the other Genins had already gone to bed obediently, even the more spirited ones like Suigetsu.
Only i, sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, was drinking at this mont.
'She said she would quit drinking before, tsk, won's mouths are deceiving.'
Kanpū comnted in his heart, and then noticed how exceptionally beautiful i looked tonight!
She wore a purple off-the-shoulder gown. Her fair shoulders and collarbones are exquisite and delicate, shining like polished jade in the moonlight. They are almost too dazzling to look at directly.
Luckily, her voluptuous figure and imposing bosom kept Kanpū from averting his gaze.
"You're here." i noticed Kanpū, her eyes glazed with intoxication, showing a myriad of charms.
"I ca to keep you company." Hanfeng said earnestly.
"Thank you." i nodded, gesturing for Kanpū to sit down and drink together.
The two didn't say much, just drinking, drinking, and more drinking…
As the night grew deeper, i was drunk without surprise, and so did Kanpū. He staggered, supporting i into her bedroom. He then closes and locked the door behind them, and collapsed on i's futon, reluctant to wake up…
