From Hokage to Visionary

Hearing this, Uchiha Itachi felt his heart beating wildly, his fair skin suddenly turned red, and he gasped rapidly: "I understand, Lord Sasriel, I will definitely be promoted as soon as possible!"

"Very good. As a reward, I will personally help you get promoted when you come back."

The coldness in Sasriel's indifferent eyes eased a lot, and he promised the two men a "reward", which was like a slap in the face and then a red date, using both kindness and force.

As expected, Mr. A and Uchiha Itachi both showed expressions of gratitude.

After all, ever since the three saints disappeared, the prayer ceremony has received no response at all. The two of them have no idea about the next step of the promotion ceremony, nor do they know how to mix the potion. They have been stuck at the level of Sequence 5 for a long time. Now that they have heard the angel’s personal promise that they can be promoted to Sequence , how can they not be ecstatic?

"I can't stay too long this time."

Sasriel said calmly: "If you have any questions, you can ask them now."

"Lord Sasriel, what do we need to do after we arrive in Konoha?" Mr. A bravely asked in a low voice.

Although an 'oracle' will be sent down, the problem is that they misunderstood the instructions of the 'oracle', which would then be troublesome. It would be better to ask clearly in advance.

Uchiha Itachi held the same idea and nodded his head: "Yes, Lord Sasriel, we are afraid that if the interpretation of the oracle is wrong, it will delay the Lord's layout."

"Will not."

Sasriel said calmly: "When you arrive in Konoha, you will naturally understand the content of the oracle."

Seeing this, the two did not dare to ask further questions and could only lower their heads in silence.

"Remember, get to Konoha as soon as possible."

Sasriel gave another warning, saying meaningfully: "This matter is related to the revival of the Lord. Also, be careful of the Twilight Hermits, they will also appear."

"Yes, we will be careful, Lord Sasriel!"

Mr. A and Uchiha Itachi quickly agreed.

"Very good, then I'll leave it to you."

A thick shadow emerged around Sasriel, and under his withered black wings, he slowly disappeared from the two people's sight.

The sky, which had been shrouded in the shadow of the curtain, suddenly became clear again.

The believers kneeling in the audience looked confused, as if a large part of their "memory" was missing.

Konoha

The Twilight Hermits.

Mr. A's eyes were gleaming with murderous intent. It was time to settle the accounts of all these years!

Uchiha Itachi next to him licked his lips and showed a sick smile: "Sasuke. Hehehe, I wonder how the kid is doing after so many years. And Shisui, I miss you guys so much."

The two of them had different thoughts, but they were both full of longing for the trip to Konoha.

The disappeared Sasriel was naturally Uchiha Sogetsu in disguise.

Of course, the purposeful use of the identity of the Dark Angel Sasriel was not purely to fool the Aurora Society, but to use this "identity" to create a real existence.

The extraordinary ability of the Sequence Three Weaver is to separate the identities he once had and turn them into living people.

Moreover, even if these separated personalities die, they will not affect or cause the demise of the original body.

Amidst the illusory spiritual waves, a figure separated from Uchiha Sogetsu's body. It had the appearance of the dark angel Sasriel, with dark pupils covered by shadows and thick shadows like wings behind it, all of which revealed an ominous aura of corruption.

"From now on, you are the Dark Angel, Sasriel."

Uchiha Munetsuki looked at the man and smiled, "I need you to worry about the Aurora Society."

"You and I are one, there's no need to be so polite."

The personality of the Dark Angel Sasriel was obviously a little cold. He nodded slightly and said, "I will promote Uchiha Itachi as soon as possible. The only thing missing now is 'uniqueness'."

"Don't worry about the 'uniqueness' issue."

Uchiha Munetsuki smiled and said, "Once I have incorporated the Sequence 1 characteristics of the Hanged Man's Path, uniqueness will naturally come into being."

That’s right, what He was referring to was the system mission, the side quest that was released when the Aurora Society was first established.

By simply accommodating one copy of the sequence 1 characteristics of the 'Hanged Man' pathway, one can directly obtain the 'uniqueness' of the 'Hanged Man' pathway.

"understood."

Sasriel nodded and stopped asking for the details.

Konoha, the Forest of Death.

Although night fell, the brutal fighting became more frequent.

The number of Genin from various countries participating in the Chunin Exam this time is far greater than any previous one.

Although the first written test eliminated more than half of the Genin, there were still many people left. Moreover, the rules of the Death Forest encouraged fighting among ninjas.

Therefore, in order to fight for each other's scrolls, each group engaged in an almost brutal fight in the Death Forest.

The number of eliminated people continued to increase. Although there were many people who chose to give up and save their lives after being defeated and having their scrolls taken away, there were still a considerable number of Genin who were directly eliminated.

After being hit by Naruto and Sasuke, both of them lost their fighting power.

Sakura, the only surviving member of the team, finally cheered up after experiencing a long period of inner torture.

As time went by, the conditions of Sasuke and Naruto gradually improved, at least they were no longer so terrible.

As night fell, Sakura knew that there would be many ninjas fighting in the cover of darkness, so she moved the two of them into a tree hole for concealment, and camouflaged the area around them, clearing away any remaining traces. Then, she held the kunai, tensed her nerves, and vigilantly paid attention to her surroundings.

She was very scared. What would she do if she suddenly encountered other teams at this time?

But the more you don’t want to encounter something, the more likely you are to encounter it.

Swish swish~ swish swish~

Green grass floated, and several black lights shot into the hidden cave.

It's the enemy!

Sakura's mind went blank and she paused for a brief half second, but her instinct as a ninja eventually dragged her back to reality.

He took out a kunai from his waist bag, and threw it as he had trained countless times. However, his skill in throwing shuriken was not very good, and he only knocked down a few of them. However, there were still several rapidly spinning shurikens flying towards the unconscious Naruto!

It was almost a completely instinctive reaction, causing Sakura to forget her own safety and pounce directly on Naruto.

puff!puff!

The shuriken pierced deeply into the girl's back, splashing scarlet blood.

It was Sakura. She used her body as a human shield to block the shuriken for Naruto, but fortunately she was wearing chain mail, so the shuriken did not cut deeply into her flesh.

She wanted to cry, but she knew very well that she must not show any vulnerable expression now!

Sakura pulled out the shuriken from her back, tightly grasped the kunai, and stared at the plants and trees around her, trying to find the person who attacked them.

However, the other party seemed to have no intention of hiding at all, and three figures walked out directly from the bushes.

After seeing the opponent's forehead protector, Sakura felt her scalp tingling instantly. That was the enemy who attacked them at the beginning, with the same Otogakure logo!

"Hehe, I finally found you. The ninjas of Konoha."

The somewhat arrogant boy squatted on the tree trunk, looking down at the girl, grinning and said, "Over there, lying there are Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, right?"

When Sakura heard that the other party's target was Sasuke and Naruto, she bit her lip and took a half step forward to block the other party's sight: "I will never let you hurt them!"

The man with bandages all over his body said in a deep voice: "Sack, deal with them quickly, don't waste time."

"Hmph, leave it to me. One person is enough."

The arrogant young boy Sack exerted force with his legs and immediately rushed towards Sakura.

Sakura locked her eyes on Sakura and counted down in her mind. When she saw him fall into the trap, she immediately used a kunai to cut the rope next to him.

Sack stepped on a piece of soft grass and his whole body suddenly sank. He immediately realized that he had fallen into a trap.

Below is a dug trap filled with sharpened tree stumps. If you fall directly into it, you will probably be pierced like a hedgehog!

"You think you can defeat Master Sack with just a trap?!"

Sack supported himself on both sides of the trap with his arms, stepped on the edge of the pit, and used the force to jump out of the pit.

However, just as he escaped from the pit, Sakura predicted his prediction in advance, and the kunai trap set in advance was triggered. The sharp kunai cut through the air and shot towards Sack's vitals.

"I told you, don't underestimate me!"

Sack was angry. After all, he was a genius of the Sound Ninja Team. How could he be defeated by a trap?

If the other party looks down on you, you will have to pay the price for it!

Sack opened his hands, the hollows in his palms suddenly inhaled, and then he shouted: "Zhankong Wave!"

The ultrasonic wave formed by the air pressure spurted out from the wind hole in the palm of her hand, instantly forming a violent air pressure slash that not only knocked down all the kunai in front of her, but even the violent wind that was blown away all the traps and hiding places set by Sakura.

The fierce wind attacked like a knife. Sakura reacted decisively and used her body to protect Sasuke and Naruto.

But she was cut with numerous wounds by the sharp wind like a knife.

"Is this all that Konoha's ninjas are capable of?"

Sack landed again, looking at the messy field after the raging wind pressure, and shouted: "I really don't understand why that master insisted on us killing these rubbish."

Sakura, who took the 'Zankuha' head-on, looked extremely miserable.

His clothes were tattered, and his body was covered with tiny wounds. Blood kept flowing out, making him look like a bloody man.

But even so, she remained steadfast, standing between the Sound Ninja, Naruto, and Sasuke.

"I will never let you hurt them!"

Sakura's eyes were determined and she clenched the kunai in her hand.

She knew very well that she could not stop the other party. Naruto and Sasuke always protected her behind them, making it impossible for her to retreat even a single step.

"Hey, Sack, stop playing."

Toss frowned and said loudly: "Your ninjutsu makes too much noise. Other teams will be coming soon. Deal with them quickly."

"You don't have to teach me a lesson!"

Sack smiled coldly, revealing a bloodthirsty look: "Since you insist on stopping us, then die with them!"

The air from all around rushed into the wind cave again.

"Chopping air waves!!!"

This time, he showed no mercy and used all his ninjutsu.

Boom!

The visible air pressure formed sound waves, and the violently rolling air waves rushed directly towards Sakura and others.

Sack is very confident that no one can block this move!

However, in the next second, a figure suddenly appeared and blocked the "Zhankong Wave".

boom!

The exploding air pressure swept across, plowing the ground and leaving traces of slashing.

"Do you need help?"

A light voice suddenly rang in Sakura's ears.

At this time, the three Sound Ninjas saw clearly that the one who had just stopped the "Sky Cutting Wave" was actually an extremely beautiful girl.

Looking at the absolutely beautiful girl who looked like a god descending from heaven, Sakura was stunned for half a minute.

"Need help?"

The girl spoke again, tilting her head to look at Sakura.

Sakura knew this girl. She was the friend who had chatted with Sasuke before the first written test, Uesugi Erii from Yugakure Village.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 435

The Sky-Slashing Wave was blocked?!

The pupils of the three Sound Ninjas dilated as they stared at the girl who suddenly appeared.

No, blocking the Sky-Severing Wave is nothing, but the problem is that the girl seemed to have blocked it with only one hand. Is that a bit exaggerated?

For some reason, the trio of Sound Ninjas fell into a strange silence, their minds going blank.
