[Konoha News, August 3rd, Konoha Time:]

  [On behalf of the Hokage Building, Konoha News issues the following statement on August 3rd, Year 51:]

  [Konoha's military operations against Kusagakure and Takigakure have been a plete success! The plots of a small group of scheming spirators have been thwarted, Konoha's dignity has been upheld, and the safety of Konoha's ninjas has been ensured...]

  [Additionally, high-ranking Kumogakure officer, Jōnin Yugito Nii, has decred her defe from Kumogakure to join Konoha, officially being a "Kumo Defector." She aims to tribute her strength to the peace of the ninja world that Konoha pursues.]

  [We promise to provide prote to "Kumo Defectito Nii." At the same time, Konoha weles all ninjas who have been persecuted in other vilges, who wish to tribute to the peace of the ninja world, and who sincerely want to join Konoha...]

  The ninja world is ever-ging; the situation is always in flux.

  Yesterday, the focus in the ninja world was on Konoha's crusade against Kusagakure and Takigakure. Today, no one pays attention to that outdated information, turning io the news of Yugito Nii's defe.

  Ninja vilges with slightly better intelligeworks all know who Yugito Nii is.

  One of Kumogakure's two Jinchūriki, a ninja known as a hero of Kumogakure, has openly decred her betrayal?

  Yugito Nii publicly appeared in front of the Hokage Building, announg to the vilgers of Konoha her departure from Kumogakure and officially joining Konoha to fight for the Will of Fire.

  The situation suddenly became subtle and ambiguous.

  Kumogakure had no response, seemingly choosing to ignore Yugito Nii, their former Jinchūriki. Among the people of Konoha, there were two pletely opposite attitudes toward Yugito Nii's arrival.

  One fa believed she y sent by Kumogakure as part of a ruse; the other believed that Konoha, being a tolerant vilge, could fully accept ninjas from other vilges who genuinely wished to reform.

  However, how could the trivial public opinion of Konoha's oners affect Lojo in the slightest?

  With a wave of his hand, he assigned Yugito Nii to his own guard unit.

  When Yugito Nii saw the masked kunoichi who had always been by Gojo Kaigetsu's side remove her mask, she was shocked!

  "You are... Pakura of Sunagakure?!"

  Pakura nodded with a plex expression. "It's me."

  Well then, now the once-heroioichi from various vilges had gathered around Gojo Kaigetsu. The st bit of unease in Yugito Nii's heart dissipated upon seeing this.

  See!

  She wasn't the only one; even Pakura had do!

  "Why even you..." Yugito Nii uzzled. She had left Kumogakure fher ideals and her own ninja way, but what about Pakura? Was it for the same reason?

  Within Kumogakure's internal intelligence, Pakura had always been highly regarded.

  The elder patriarch had even publicly decred that Kumogakure ninjas should emute Pakura, and the training dire for the Anbu's "loyalty" should align with hers.

  Some time ago, Pakura's sudden disappearance had drawention of various intelligence departments. Ultimately, Kumogakure's Anbu cluded that Pakura had probably been killed by Konoha ninjas...

  But now, such a kunoichi, stamped with a stereotype of unwavering loyalty in the ninja world, had appeared before her in such a fantastical way.

  Moreover, from some subtle expressions and as... Pakura and Gojo Kaigetsu seemed to have an inexplicable ambiguity.

  Could it be... because of love?

  "Pakura's situation isn't much different from yours~" Gojo Kaigetsu casually expined. "She was used by her vilge as a pawn to elimired between Konoha and Sunagakure, sent to Konoha to die voluntarily. However, Pakura did so willingly."

  "I saw her resolve to sacrifice herself for peace... Peace shouldn't e at the cost of a hero's bones, so I took her in this way."

  "pared to Pakura, Yugito Nii, you're fortu least you're still an active, living person in the ninja world, not a ghost wandering in Konoha."

  So, she was also a pitiable person abandoned by her vilge.

  As a ninja, such loyalty was beyond reproach.

  "What a twisted ninja world..."

  "Fighting for their vilge all their lives, only to be ruthlessly abandoned when necessary... The more of a hero one is to a vilge, the more tragic their abando."

  Yugito Nii couldn't help but ch her fists, her gaze toakura filled with sympathy and respect.

  Her eyes reddened slightly.

  Last night, Yugito Nii had thought she could be sidered great, but she hadn't expected that there were eveer individuals beside Gojo Kaigetsu!

  On this path to lighting up the ninja world, she was not alone!

  The tragedies they faced in their respective vilges could no longer be ged, but how they walked their future path was in their own hands; the road ahead y beh their feet! By dedig themselves to Konoha and uhe illumination of the Will of Fire...

  Even now, the war decration of Gojo Kaigetsu still echoed in Yugito Nii's ears, surrounding her in a three-dimensional, all-enpassing sound that almost drowned her, stantly reshaping her ninja way.

  Though the weather was mild, a warm current tinuously surged into her heart: "Is this the Will of Fire..."

  "Since you'll be colleagues from now on, you should address each other as sisters."

  "?"

  "Ahem, enough idle talk. Put on your uniforms and masks. From now on, you'll be my persoe guards."

  "Let's go. There's still a lot of important matters to haoday."

  And so, one man and two wome out.

  Followed by two tall kunoichi in special uniforms as bodyguards, Gojo Kaigetsu's walking posture became more swaggering, his body swaying bad forth, exuding an air of "The world is big, but Konoha is the biggest."

  Last night, he had only roughly handled some issues.

  Today, there were still signifit tasks awaiting—rebuilding the Uzumaki , researg Hidan, and dealing with the disloyal Danzojo Kaigetsu led the two to a safe house oskirts of Konoha.

  "This pce is...?"

  "This is Konoha's Forbidden Research Lab. Once you pass through this door, fet everything inside."

  "Uood!"

  Yugito Nii and Pakura responded in unison.

  "Gojo Kaigetsu didn't lie to me; Konoha has truly accepted me."

  Another warm current flowed into Yugito Nii's heart. This was the Will of Fire; this was... the feeling of being trusted.

  Even though it was only her first day defeg, there were no expected loyalty tests; instead, Gojo Kaigetsu directly brought her to Konoha's research b. If she harbored any ill iions, the research could be destroyed or leaked...

  Yugito Nii resolved to offer her heart to such a Gojo Kaigetsu and Konoha until peace was achieved in the ninja world!

  Leading the two women to the final dojo Kaigetsu instructed, "It might be a bit messy inside, so I won't bring you in."

  "However, your permissions have beeered. If any emergencies occur, e in directly to find me."

  After the instrus, Gojo Kaigetsu pushed open the door aered.

  Oh, inside were all familiar faces.

  Obito Uchiha, Hidan, and Orochimaru dressed in a professional researcher's uniform.

  Gojo Kaigetsu casually greeted, "Orochimaru-senpai, how do you feel about w in the research b?"

  Upon hearing Gojo Kaigetsu's voice, Orochimaru didn't even lift his head.

  Wielding a scalpel, his eyes filled with a thirst for knowledge, sing Hidan like he was gazing at a treasure trove. Behind him was Obito Uchiha, entirely bound like a mummy, his head drooping as he had clearly fallen unscious.

  Poor child; who knows what Orochimaru had doo him.

  Even with Hashirama cells and White Zetsu cells, he had fainted.

  "Ah, it's... absolutely wonderful." Orochimaru licked his lips like a child who had found a oy.

  Orochimaru used to be an atheist... but after experieng the Six Paths Sage granting him nine Holy Grails, Gojo Kaigetsu brought him to the underground b, and sihen, his ninja way had been shaken!

  The experimental projects he had been painstakingly pursuing already had living examples in the ninja world.

  This... was the guidance given to him by the Six Paths Sage and Hashirama Senju!

  He was on an incredibly correct path!

  Look at Obito Uchiha! He's practically a miracle of ninja sce!

  The feasibility of Wood Release human experimentation, the miraculous White Zetsu cells, the chakra of the Mangekyō Sharingan... Everything made Orochimaru ecstatic.

  For the first time, Orochimaru felt that even if his arms were sealed and he could no longer be a ninja, it didn't matter.

  To explore the pinnacle of ninja sce acc to the guidance of the Six Paths Sage was such a beautiful thing!

  And before he could fully enjoy it for two days, Gojo Kaigetsu brought him an even bigger surprise—the immortal Hidan.

  Yes, someone who couldn't be killed!

  Even if his heart was destroyed and his annoying head was severed, he was still lively, pletely overturning Orochimaru's uanding of a ninja's vitality. The only drawback was that he cked an auto-recovery fun, requiriernal help to reattach his body parts.

  But that was already enough; it opehe door to a new world for Orochimaru.

  The Wood Release human experiments that had yielded nress and the path to immortality that seemed endless now showed a dire within a few days.

  "Ah~ Praise the Six Paths Sage!"

  "How is the research progressing?" Gojo Kaigetsu approached the gagged Hidan and inquired.

  "This guy... has a very peculiar chakra in his body. Acc to him, it's a gift from the 'Evil God.'"

  "But if there is a god in this world, it would only be the Six Paths Sage. The so-called Evil God is probably a variant of Senjutsu chakra simir to that from Ryūchi Cave."

  "Orochimaru, do you even listen to yourself?" Gojo Kaigetsu thought wryly. Indeed, when areme ninja's path ges, they go to another extreme entirely.

  In such a short time, he'd bee a devout follower of the Six Paths Sage.

  "Senjutsu chakra?"

  Orochimaru nodded. "Just as bining elemental nature transformations produce Kekkei Genkai and Kekkei Tōta, the strange chakra in Hidan's body is likely a variant of Senjutsu chakra."

  "Plus, he underwereme bodily modifications by the 'Cult of Jashin,' which led to his immortal body."

  "But regarding this so-called Cult of Jashin, Konoha has no records, and even local ats in Takigakure are just oral legends."

  "It's hard to say whether this anization is a delusion of the madman Hidan."

  "Through repeated experiments, wheracted the Jashin chakra from Hidan and ied it into mice, I couldn't achieve the effemortality."

  "However, when I inflicted damage on Hidan, the injuries were synized onto the mice."

  Orochimaru poio a small white b mouse nearby. It was somewhat regrettable that Gojo Kaigetsu had forbidden him from using Konoha people for human experiments; mice were barely acceptable but might yield differes pared to humans.

  "It be said that even if a variant of Senjutsu chakra grant a ninja the possibility of immortality, enduring such bodily modifications... Hidan himself is one in a million."

  At this point, Orochimaru's tone carried sret.

  If it were easy to use this mutant chakra by iing it into ninjas to achieve immortality and create an army of immortal ninjas...

  Even if only temporarily effective, relying on sheer numbers, they could level the ninja world in half a month.

  No matter how powerful the Lightning Chakra Mode is, it would be useless against immortal ninjas; oheir chakra is exhausted, they could be easily finished off with a kunai.

  Unfortunately, the ditiooent.

  Orochimaru tested a hundred b mi succession, and without exception, they all died instantly.

  After listening, Gojo Kaigetsu aowledged the findings. Perhaps this expined why Hidan could exge his life for another's—the Jashin chakra binds both parties, and if one side 't withstand the chakra's invasion, it leads to death...

  Very stifi the ninja sense.

  "Now, I only try to study this Jashin chakra to explore the secrets of immortality," Orochimaru said somewhat regretfully.

  The Six Paths Sage spared his life, guiding him to live on and duct research for Konoha to atone for his past sins.

  Otherwise... with his mad stist nature, he might have directly extracted the chakra from Hidan's body and ied it into himself.

  Gojo Kaigetsu looked oddly at Hidan, who had been shaved bald and had his mouth sewn shut. His expression grew increasingly peculiar... This look was somewhat remi of the protagonist i movie he watched before crossing over, "Deadpool."

  "Ahem!"

  Gojo Kaigetsu, always oo turn imagination into reality, immediately shared his idea with Orochimaru:

  "Orochimaru-senpai, is there a possibility..."

  "What is it?"

  "Instead of transferring his immortal ability to others, we trahers' abilities to him?"

  Gojo Kaigetsu poi Hidan. "He adapt to even Jashin chakra; perhaps he also withstand other Kekkei Genkai?"

  "As long as he 't die, we modify him to death~"

  "Even if there's a risk of losing trol after successful modification, we solve it with the Sharingan's genjutsu..."

  Hiss—

  Orochimaru gasped, as if a new world had opened up to him.

  His thinking had been too servative.

  In terms of ninja sce, Kekkei Genkai are essentially cellur mutations.

  Why is the success rate of Hashirama cell experiments so low? It's because Hashirama's vitality is to; even after death, his cells remain active, assimiting and transf other cells.

  This expins why Madara Uchiha developed such a rge fa his chest.

  Everything has a reason.

  Looking at Hidan again, Orochimaru's gaze ged.

  Then... what if we transpnt Hashirama cells into Hidan's body? And the Sharingan, White Zetsu cells, other Kekkei Genkai ninja cells—could we mix them all into Hidan like a hodgepodge?

  Their versation wasn't cealed at all; every word fell into Hidan's ears.

  This young man who feared nothing and had a foul mouth seemed to feel fear for the first time. With his mouth sealed, he let out muffled cries and struggled desperately.

  An immortal body.

  It's both a blessing and a curse; he might not die, but he still feel pain...

  But as an experimental subject, Hidan clearly had no human rights. Soon, Orochimaru, brimming with enthusiasm, held a rge syringe and plu into Hidan's arm.

  Hashirama cells, activate—!

  Air was expelled from the syringe, and Hidan's eyes rolled back, revealiy whites. His body vulsed wildly like someone beirocuted.

  Gojo Kaigetsu watched Hidan ily, hoping for a miracle.

  From a ninja's perspective, Hidan's strength wasn't overwhelmingly powerful; it was as if Kishimoto couldn't hahe plot and gave him too many inexplicable abilities.

  Even if his body was blown to bits by hundreds of explosive tags and buried under rocks, he wouldn't die.

  What is the "Evil God"? There's still no answer...

  For someone so foul-mouthed and morally ambiguous, a pure embodiment of chaos, Gojo Kaigetsu sidered him an experimental material.

  Using a bug to break the game bahing he liked more.

  After a while, Hidan's body stopped vulsing.

  They saw that the wounds deliberately made on his body for trol experiments were healing at a visible rate. However, ne face of Hashirama appeared on his chest, nor were there signs of awakening Wood Release.

  "Did it fail?" Orochimaru murmured subsciously.

  However, Gojo Kaigetsu remained silent.

  Through his brilliant Six Eyes, he had already seen the emergence of Wood Release chakra within Hidan's body. Although extremely weak, it indeed existed.

  His anxious heart finally settled, and a smile couldn't help but form at the er of his mouth.

  A monster belonging to Konoha had beeed by his own hands.

  Just as pnned—!

  Gojo Kaigetsu turned around and waved his hand:

  "For the remaining experiments, Orochimaru-senpai, you hahem as you see fit. Follow the established pn to tap into Hidan's potential."

  "Also, pay attention to Obito Uchiha's physical dition. In a few days, I'll bring his other eye."

  "Konoha he presence of a third Mangekyō Sharingan."

  "Uood."

  After Gojo Kaigetsu left, Orochimaru stared ily at the data from the experimental instruments ected to Hidan's body. Suddenly, his expression became somewhat astonished, his pupils diting.

  Incredulously, he excimed:

  "It actually... succeeded?!"

  "Although the traces of Wood Release chakra are extremely ossibly even less potent than regur elemental jutsu, it has indeed appeared within Hidan."

  "The Hashirama cells are eroding Hidan's body, but the Jashin chakra within him is stantly repairing it... The two forces are in a stalemate."

  A miracle!

  This was a miracle in ninja sce!

  Orochimaru's frenzied ughter echoed in the underground b as he looked up at the white lights above.

  "It must be the Six Paths Sage! It's the will of the Six Paths Sage~ It's He who is guiding my path forward! Such a monster has actually beeed!"

  Having or not having, strong or weak—these are entirely different levels.

  Although the Wood Release chakra within Hidan was extremely weak and minimal, he indeed possessed Wood Release chakra and had some characteristics of Wood Release.

  His body's regeive abilities were enhanced, his total chakra was increasing... How many ninjas spent their entire lives uo break through such limitations?

  Moreover, if he could master Wood Release, then other elemental chakras should also be possible!

  "The Sharingan... What if it's the Sharingan? Or perhaps, adding a Byakugan." Orochimaru boldly hypothesized: "A modified Hidan could bee a war tool rivaling the Kage level."

  Examples of transpnting the Sharingan into non-Uchiha are rare; for this, Orochimaru had been quietly Kakashi.

  The reje phenomenon of the Sharingan is obvious; non-Uchiha users e several times more chakra, which is why Kakashi rarely activates the tomoe.

  But... if Hidan, with a body enhanced by Wood Release, were to have the Sharingan transpnted, he could handle suption.

  "Moreover, as Gojo Kaigetsu mentioned... the retionship between Wood Release and the Sharingan isn't as simple as one plus one equals two. Obito Uchiha is a living example."

  "Apart from being used as a killing mae... he could also serve as a cultivation vessel. I just don't know his limits."

  Orochimaru's gaze toward Hidan was filled with greed.

  The reformed Orochimaru wasn't craving Hidan's body for immortality anymore; purely from Konoha's standpoint, such a Hidan could provide a steady supply of powerful Sharingan~

  "Have Gojo Kaigetsu bring more Kekkei Genkai from outside."

  "Ice Release, Crystal Release, Lava Release, Boil Release, Scorch Release, Storm Release..."

  Orochimaru's voice, like someoing a menu, echoed in the underground b for a long time.

  ????

  Shimura Danzo was still on his way back, riding his ninja horse.

  Given his physical ability, a day and a half was enough for him to return to the vilge from Kirigakure.

  But the natives of Kirigakure were eyeing the isnds under Konoha's trol. To maintain Konoha's overseas is, Danzo had arranged everything, leaving most of Root's forces at the Kirigakure base.

  He himself led his ten most trusted Root jōnin back to the vilge.

  Not stopping for a moment.

  During this time, news of Konoha's victory over Kusagakure and Takigakure, Fugaku Uchiha awakening Susanoo and successfully bringing back a survivor of the Uzumaki , and other suformation reached his ears.

  Shimura Danzo uood that the tide had turned.

  He and the Uchiha were like two sides of the same in Konoha Vilge. When one side appeared in the ninja world, the other was bound to be hidden away until swept into the trash bin of the ninja world and pletely fotten.

  When he was in power, he stirred up the ninja world with one hand, earning the title "The Darkness of the Shinobi." He became a nightmare in the hearts of tless ninjas, pressing Fugaku Uchiha into being a low-key police force chief in Konoha Vilge.

  Now, he had lost his influence.

  Fugaku Uchiha awakehe legendary Susanoo, syed the Two-Tails, became famous in the ninja world, and his achievements overshadowed the Sannin... In this Konoha and eveire ninja world, there would no longer be a pce for him, "The Darkness of the Shinobi."

  Moreover, in one day, he received four Hokage decrees from Minato Namikaze...

  Gazing at the flickering campfire before him, Shimura Danzo's eyes were deep and profound.

  This was a one-way road with n back. As the leader of Root, everything he did was unspeakable. This was an unspoken uanding in Konoha, perhaps also the reason why Hiruzen and the Fourth Hokage dared to use him all along.

  After all, if the Hokage really wao iigate, he could grasp evidence against him at any time, and with such evidence, he could strip him of power whenever he wanted.

  He was Konoha's solitary Root!

  Being sently summoned back—even if he didn't die, he would be stripped of all political power in Konoha, imprisoned for life in the Police Force's jail.

  He could roughly guess the thoughts of Gojo Kaigetsu and Minato Namikaze. sidering their as in resg the Uzumaki survivor at all costs, Konoha's F2 wao use his life, Danzo's, to demonstrate a political stao the ninja world...

  "In the branches of the new era, there's no pe, Shimura Danzo."

  "The Fourth Hokage wants to use me as a sacrificial banner."

  Danzo could easily run away. With his prestige, many outside vilges wao kill him, but many also wao employ him.

  After all, he was a ninja who had survived the chaotic times.

  But he would never choose to defect; he had selfish desires, wao bee Hokage, wao imbue the Will of Fire with new era characteristics, but his loyalty to Konoha was absolute.

  "Then... should I obediently go back to face judgment, have my ninja abilities stripped, and be locked up like a wretched worm in the jail of my aremy, the Uchiha's Police Force?"

  Given the merits he had earned for Konoha and his retionship with Hiruzen, Danzo felt he probably wouldn't die—at most, life impriso.

  But thinking that the Police Force was inally established by their teacher to leash the Uchiha, and now he would be imprisohere... Danzo felt utterly disgusted.

  "I will die as a ninja in battle."

  "Hiruzen, should I kill you?"

  This was the point Danzo pondered before the campfire.

  He would rather die in battle with his gradually aging body than be locked up in the Uchiha's cage. Then the final choice was—"Operation Purge the Kage."

  Leadirusted Root ninjas, he would un operation named "Purge the Kage."

  Let his close friend Hiruzen Sarutobi e to stop him. In the end, the remnants of the old era would both die in battle, being nourishment for Konoha, allowing the new leaves to grow strong.

  It wouldn't impact Konoha at all, yet both would die for their ninja way... This was the best ending.

  "Hiruzen... Stripped of all power, you must also be waiting for an opportunity to die in battle, right?"

  "If it's you, you wouldn't want to watch your body age until death; you also crave a ce to defend the honor of the 'Professor of Shinobi,' right?"

  "I uand; I uand all your thoughts, Hiruzen."

  "After fighting for half a lifetime, let me send you off with one final glory!"

  "Hiruzen, you are both my gift and my camity..."

  The flickering firelight cast Danzo Shimura's old fato an increasingly frenzied expression.

  Until—

  "Who's there?!"

  Thud!

  A Root ninja guarding Danzo suddenly colpsed silently to the ground.

  Danzo's eyes narrowed as he slowly stood up, speaking in a deep voice, "Who's there!"

  Could it be someo by the Fourth Hokage to assassinate him halfway? No... Probably not. If he returo the vilge tomorrow, they could rightfully judge him; there was o take such a risk, vioting Konoha's ws to assassinate him halfway.

  Why bear sufamy? For what?

  Then... who could it be?

  They were already within the borders of the Land of Fire. Which fa could infiltrate here and precisely execute a mission to assassinate him, Shimura Danzo?

  Was it the brutes from Kumogakure?

  Because of their defeat on the front lines, were they so eager tain face by targeting a Konoha elder?

  "If that's the case, they've really uimated me~ It's ughable that after not taking a for so long, people think they use me as a tool tain face..."

  "No matter who you are, you've choseh of death!"

  "Heh... o be so tense, Lord Danzo of Konoha." From the shadows, a being ed in twe leaves slowly emerged, hands raised in front of his chest to show he meant no harm.

  "I'm a good persoo deliver information. It's just that the information is too fidential and not suitable for a third person to hear, so I killed the unnecessary person."

  A good person? Information? And that straire...

  Danzo gripped his shuriken tighter, not letting his guard down in the slightest.

  "I'm here to warn you that if you return to the vilge now, you might be killed~ Even your former colborator, Orochimaru, has disappeared without a trace; everythied to you is being quietly erased by Konoha."

  "But if you don't return, you'll be beled a traitor by Konoha and huhroughout the ninja world. I think you must be troubled by this. Don't worry; I help you."

  Bck Zetsu extended his hand toward Danzo: "So, are you ied in joining anization? We help you tio accumute power until you're strong enough to return to Konoha and stir things up."

  "Retaliating against the vilge that betrayed you—that's thrilling just to think about, isn't it?"

  Bck Zetsu was internally frustrated!

  First, Orochimaru disappeared; then he went to the Land of Rice Fields and back to Konoha, and Orochimaru was gone~

  Oer another, as if they were the most arrogant beings, deg victory and refusing Bck Zetsu's help. And then?

  They turned around and vanished without a trace... It's really infuriating!

  An angry Bck Zetsu decided not to hold baymiving up on these unreliable losers. He activated all his es to search the world for suitable power... In just three days, the harvest was signifit.

  Although Fugaku Uchiha awakehe Mangekyō Sharingan and could use the third form of Susanoo, which wasn't bad.

  But Bck Zetsu believed that pared to his own gains, Susanoo was still slightly inferior.

  First, intercepting Danzo Shimura halfway.

  This guy, ordered back by Konoha, if told that returni death, should surely submit to the anization and bee a force to capture Tailed Beasts, right?

  If Danzo joined, his effectiveness wouldn't be worse than that useless Orochimaru!

  However—

  "You're dreaming!" Danzo sneered, f a seal with his hands, his face mog: "Who do you think I am? The Root of the ninja world, the Root of Konoha! A man who has guarded Konoha from the shadows all his life, and you wao bee a traitor?"

  "I don't even have the io infiltrate yanization as a spy."

  ", I'll break your limbs, seal your chakra, take you back to Konoha, araformation from you bit by bit."

  "I want to see which fa is secretly targeting Konoha."
