In Konoha, they wiped out the Sarutobi clan at the start.

Chapter 112 Erzhuzi is still Erzhuzi

Shino continued, "When I first entered the Ninja Academy, I heard that some upperclassmen had graduated early, so I took a look out of curiosity."

"Perhaps it's because this person is rather special. I always feel that he is out of place with everything around him, as if he is looking at everything around him with the eyes of another world. I unconsciously pay a little more attention to him."

"In the following year, I often saw Fujiwara Chiya picking up a girl from the Uchiha clan after school, and I also saw Fujiwara Chiya and Kurenai-sensei going on missions outside the village together."

"Until news spread throughout the village that Fujiwara Chiya had been promoted to Jonin, he seemed to vanish without a trace."

"It wasn't until I became a ninja and obtained this manual of rogue ninjas that I discovered he had already become a rogue ninja."

Kakashi took the ninja manual from Kiba, flipped through it, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Your observation and analytical skills are quite remarkable. It seems you're a very meticulous person in life."

"Being able to notice things that ordinary people don't notice... if I had noticed that something was wrong with Chiya back then, then... perhaps many tragedies could have been avoided."

In the end, Kakashi recalled the scene of him, Obito, and Rin fighting over the bell.

Back then, because of his father's death, he had absolutely no sense of teamwork.

They didn't even care about their companions' lives.

If Minato Namikaze, as Obito's teacher, had seen this and awakened him earlier, then perhaps things wouldn't have turned out this way.

Thinking of this, Kakashi smiled wryly behind his mask, stood up, and said, "Team 8 is the best team among our squads at tracking and reconnaissance. Kurenai, it seems you've indeed taken on a good student. Well then, let's talk again sometime."

After saying that, Kakashi placed the rogue ninja manual on the table, picked up the food he had bought earlier, and disappeared from the dumpling shop.

Kurenai Yuhi remained silent throughout, only gently touching the pure gold ring on her chest, lost in memories of her past with Chiya.

"Teacher Kurenai, is this Fujiwara Chiya really that powerful? We can accept Uchiha Itachi, since he's from that clan, but Fujiwara Chiya..."

Ya picked up the manual from the table, still unwilling to believe that he had actually lost to a commoner who had no bloodline limit or secret techniques.

"He is indeed very capable," Kurenai Yuhi replied calmly, her face showing no apparent emotional fluctuation.

Only Hinata truly understood, for she saw the same look in Kurenai's eyes as she herself. She murmured to herself, "Kurenai-sensei, you surely don't believe Chiya-nii is a bad person either."

Just then, Naruto, who had just finished walking the dog, saw Kiba and the others rushing over. "Kiba, Hinata, Shino, what are you looking at?"

Erzhuzi and Xiaoying followed leisurely behind.

However, they did not have the idea of ​​greeting Team 8 like Naruto did.

Because he had recently been on a mission in the Land of Waves and had just suffered a brutal beating from society, almost losing his life, Erzhuzi was eager to improve himself.

Sakura, being a fangirl, desperately wanted to be alone with Sasuke and couldn't wait for Naruto, that eyesore, to leave.

"What we're looking at is none of your business, you loser!"

He clicked his tongue slightly.

His eyes darted around, and then he seemed to have thought of something.

With his arms crossed and a smug look on his face, he said, "The Rogue Ninja Handbook, huh? It lists all the powerful S-rank rogue ninjas in the ninja world, including one who was a former member of Team 8, our Kurenai-sensei's disciple. Pretty impressive, right?"

"That's really impressive, but no matter how impressive it is, it's definitely not as good as my Chiya-nii-san." Naruto nodded and, taking advantage of Kiba's inattention, snatched the ninja manual.

"Hey, you! Give it back to me!" Kiba and Naruto started fighting over it.

During the struggle, the manual was knocked away by Ya and landed on Erzhuzi, who happened to be passing by.

"Sasuke, be careful!" Sakura's eyes lit up, wanting to stage a "beauty saves the hero" scene.

But who is Sasuke? He is one of the Four Laughing Prodigies of the Uchiha clan and one of the most arrogant figures in Naruto. Before Sakura could make a move, Sasuke smiled, didn't even look at the manual, and casually caught it.

"Sasuke, so cool!" Sakura's eyes lit up again, this time with two undisguised red hearts popping out.

Everyone in the audience, including Class 8, was speechless, their foreheads creased with exasperation.

Sasuke remained aloof as always, ignoring Sakura and casually flipping through the rogue ninja handbook.

When he saw the wanted posters for Chiya and Itachi Uchiha, his expression grew even colder, and a faint chill emanated from his entire body, making Sakura, who was standing near his mouth, shudder.

Just then, Kiba walked over. "Sasuke, speaking of which, there's also an Uchiha clansman here. Do you know him?"

"He is my brother," Sasuke replied coldly.

Sakura, who was standing to the side, was clearly unaware of the seriousness of the matter. With the intention of pleasing Sasuke, she exclaimed, "Sasuke's brother is really amazing. He actually got to be written about in a book."

"Stop talking nonsense. I'll kill him one day." Sasuke glared at Sakura, ignoring the annoying girl, and walked straight to Kurenai Yuhi. He pointed to Chiya in the ninja manual and said coldly, "This guy was once your student?"

"So what if it is?" Kurenai asked instead of answering, her voice somewhat cold. She didn't feel the need to continue talking to this brat and got up to leave.

"Wait." Sasuke wanted to chase after her, but Kurenai quickly formed hand seals and used genjutsu to trap him with her back to him.

In Sasuke's eyes, he was trapped inside a large tree, with only his head sticking out, unable to move.

"What's the use of asking these questions now? Do you want to be like those bounty hunters and go after him?" Kurenai Yuhi turned around, releasing a chilling killing intent that was imperceptible to ordinary people, and sneered.

"No, I just want to know just how strong this guy is? How does he compare to Itachi Uchiha?" Meeting Kurenai Yuhi's gaze, Sasuke broke out in a cold sweat, his voice involuntarily softening and adopting a questioning tone.

In his view.

Qianye and his brother were both the instigators of the extermination of their clan.

Although the families that were wiped out were different.

But the fact that the two chose to make their move on the same day suggests there must be some connection between them.

Qianye must know something too.

If he can't even defeat Chiya, how will he challenge Itachi Uchiha in the future?

"I've never fought Uchiha Itachi, so I can't give a direct answer as to who is stronger between them. But I can tell you that Chiya is very strong. Back when he was a genin, he learned all my ninjutsu and genjutsu and surpassed me, his teacher."

Upon hearing that Sasuke didn't intend to kill Senya, Kurenai's expression softened slightly, and she dispelled the genjutsu.
