————————————————————-

There are many types of illusions. Shisui likes to use them to control people’s minds, while Kazuki also enjoys manipulating the mind, causing the opponent’s body to uncontrollably squeeze their own heart.

That feeling—only those who have experienced it can understand.

Kazuki gestured to his clansmen to carry away the injured, his cold gaze sweeping over the people around him.

“The Uchiha have suffered a lot of misunderstandings, there is a significant misunderstanding between us and the village, and the villagers. But remember, not just anyone can humiliate the Uchiha. If any of you wish to step on the Uchiha, you better be prepared for my revenge. I won’t hesitate to break your legs and knock out each of your teeth.”

Terrifying.

Kazuki’s cold gaze made the people around him shudder, and those caught in his gaze quickly lowered their heads, not daring to meet his eyes.

Asuma’s companions were still lying on the ground, groaning and gasping in pain—who would dare to provoke him now?

For a moment, many people looked at Asuma and his companions with pity.

Who would be foolish enough to provoke Kazuki?

Don’t they know this guy is a ruthless one?

And a Special Jōnin at that? Bah, what kind of Special Jōnin is this strong!

“I’ll deal with you later!!!”

Tsunade was so angry that her chest nearly burst:

“Shizune, treat them. The rest of you, disperse. What are you standing around for? Want to get involved?”

If it weren’t for her hemophobia, Tsunade would’ve slapped Asuma a few times herself.

That idiot just keeps causing trouble for me.

“Captain, are we just going to let this go?”

On the way back, Jiro and the others still felt unsatisfied.

Kazuki glared at him, “What else do you want? Kill them now?”

Let it go?

Of course not. But the time to settle the score hasn’t come yet, just wait. It’s coming soon.

“Remember those guys, and when we return to the village, we’ll deal with them slowly, including their families and friends. Since they dared to humiliate and target the Uchiha, they can’t blame us for taking revenge.”

Taking responsibility for one’s actions?

Sorry, but you’ve escalated this to a family-level matter, so your families won’t be spared either.

I, Kazuki, am not a forgiving person.

If you provoke me, no one will escape.

“Shizune, why didn’t you stop him?”

Tsunade patted Shizune’s head in anger, and Shizune replied with a pitiful expression, “I didn’t dare…”

Not just Kazuki.

At that time, every Uchiha member had their Sharingan activated, and with so many Sharingan staring at her, how could Shizune dare to make a move?

Besides, she really didn’t want to stop him. Asuma, that jerk, deserved a beating.

It would stop him from acting so unruly and arrogant all the time.

“….”

Tsunade was at a loss for words.

When she thought about it, Shizune had a point.

While Shizune’s skills were decent, compared to the Uchiha clan’s ruthlessness, she stood no chance.

If she had rushed in, she might have gotten slapped too.

In other words, even passing dogs at that moment might have gotten slapped.

Forget it, no point in discussing it any further.

Tsunade sighed and patted her forehead:

“Fine, it’s not your fault. Go help treat Asuma. That kid probably can’t even recognize his own father right now.”

“I won’t!”

With that, Shizune scurried away.

“Treat him and come back quickly, I’ll… wait, did you just say no?”

Tsunade turned around, but Shizune was already gone.

“None of them are reliable.”

Tsunade sighed in exasperation.

So what now? Tsunade herself couldn’t act, Shizune didn’t want to, so what about Asuma?

If no one helps with his treatment, that brat’s face probably won’t heal for ten days to half a month.

Forget it, let the other medical ninjas take care of it.

There were a few medical ninjas in the accompanying team, though their skills were average compared to Shizune.

They should be good enough to reduce Asuma’s swelling and relieve his pain.

As for whether to report this incident, Tsunade decided to wait until they returned.

After all, Asuma brought this upon himself. Getting beaten and humiliated was his own fault.

Tsunade knew this matter would at most result in a warning for Kazuki. But judging by Kazuki’s attitude, he didn’t care at all.

Headache. Why are there so many troublesome issues?

How did the Uchiha produce such a ruthless guy?

This whole incident was caused by Asuma digging his own grave, provoking and humiliating the Uchiha.

Some Uchiha members were injured because of it, and their injuries were not light.

But Asuma didn’t come out any better. Normally, any sane person would rather be beaten up and have a few bones broken.

Rather than being humiliated and slapped into unconsciousness.

Compared to the former, the latter is much more disgraceful.

It makes it impossible to hold your head high.

Asuma attacked the Uchiha, so Kazuki slapped him. Asuma humiliated the Uchiha, so Kazuki returned the favor tenfold.

Ironically, even if this incident escalated, Asuma would end up on the losing side, because he started it. If it weren’t for his loose tongue, none of this would have happened.

Compared to Kakashi being attacked, this brawl was nothing.

Even if it escalated, Kazuki and the Uchiha wouldn’t face any serious consequences.

Asuma, on the other hand, would become a laughingstock.

Especially since Kazuki mentioned that he paid off the examiners to pass the Special Jōnin test.

An incident like this in the Daimyo’s residence wouldn’t go unnoticed, and when the news reached the palace, the Daimyo of other nations started gossiping.

“Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter! Who would’ve thought Hiruzen son would be so useless.”

“He had to pay off the examiners to pass the ninja exam? How embarrassing!”

“Did he really?”

“If you don’t believe it, then tell me—how come Asuma can’t even compare to one of Kazuki’s fingers, despite both being Special Jōnin? He can only bully the Genin and Chūnin in his village.”

“Yeah, it’s embarrassing.”

The Daimyo dared to criticize even the Third Hokage, let alone a mere Asuma.

So, after the news spread among them, it turned into a story that Asuma indeed bribed the examiners to pass the Special Jōnin test.

“Even the Hokage’s son is so arrogant and overbearing; Konoha must be really interesting.”

Naturally, the Daimyo of various nations, eager to sow discord, began using Asuma’s actions to provoke the Fire Daimyo.

What they didn’t know was that the Fire Daimyo was secretly delighted.

He had been thinking of a way to get rid of the Third Hokage.

He was fed up with the Third Hokage’s excuses and incompetence, and he was also tired of Danzo.

But the Third Hokage refused to deal with Danzo.

Fine, then let’s see whether your son or Danzo is more important to you.

Outwardly, the Daimyo displayed anger, criticizing Asuma, but secretly he had people spread the news even further, hoping it would become widely known.

Let’s see how the Third Hokage can face Konoha’s villagers after this.

“Did you hear? The Third Hokage of Konoha actually condoned his own son, letting him bribe the examiners to pass the Special Jōnin test.”

“Really? Has Konoha become this corrupt?”

“It gets worse. This Sarutobi Asuma is an arrogant and overbearing brat, accustomed to bullying people in Konoha because no one dares to stop him since his father is Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Hokage. But when he arrived at the Daimyo’s residence, he was in a bad mood and decided to provoke a fellow ninja and humiliate that person’s family.”
