Ultimately, the remaining Sarutobi Clan Ninja who had gradually gathered did not choose to leave, nor did they choose to break through. Instead, they quietly stood in confrontation with the Military Police Force Ninja.
It wasn't that they were so afraid of the Military Police Force; it was because they couldn't defeat them.
Moreover, no one took the initiative to lead them. They were waiting for the arrival of the clan's elites and their Young Master Asuma.
By then, even the Military Police Force would have to give them an explanation.
However, they were destined not to wait for the people they desired.
Asuma was being escorted out of the clan territory. As he walked through a relatively flat section of road with no buildings nearby,
Asuma, who was at the very front, secretly formed hand signs and then quickly turned around.
"Fire Release: Ash Pile Burning!"
This surprise attack did not achieve the results Asuma had hoped for.
Only a few Sarutobi Clan Ninja died; the rest immediately scattered and fled.
Indeed, all harmony was merely on the surface.
After Asuma's reassurance, everyone seemed to trust each other, but in their hearts, they were still constantly wary of their fellow clan members.
Although no one suspected Asuma, those who were constantly on guard against those around them still reacted the moment Asuma attacked, scattering and fleeing.
People escaped, suffered no significant injuries, personnel losses were minimal, and the traitors were identified.
One could say it was a cause for celebration.
However, at this moment, none of these Sarutobi Clan Ninja felt any joy.
They felt as if their worldview had been shattered, as if they had fallen under a Genjutsu.
Several Sarutobi Clan Ninja even formed hand signs to release Genjutsu, but it was futile.
Why couldn't the Genjutsu be broken?
No!
There was no Genjutsu!
Young Master Asuma had truly betrayed them, betrayed the clan that raised him!
The Sarutobi Clan Ninja scattered around could not believe any of this.
Why?
Soon, a Sarutobi Clan Ninja thought of a possibility and shouted,
"Quick, sense if there's any unusual Chakra within Asuma!"
Those planning a coup would naturally be prepared. The sole individual with sensory talent reacted, quickly forming hand signs.
Three seconds later, this Ninja said bitterly,
"None!"
The Ninja who had previously spoken looked at Asuma again and asked,
"Asuma, were you threatened? Is it because of your girlfriend from an outside clan?"
The other Sarutobi Clan Ninja also fixed their gaze on Asuma, many with anticipation in their eyes.
Asuma looked at these clan members, who were still gazing at him with expectant eyes, and felt immense pain in his heart.
Many of them were his childhood playmates; he could call all the names of the others, even those he wasn't very familiar with.
Under the gaze of these clan members, Asuma's resolve wavered again, and he began to doubt whether his choice was correct.
Asuma, who had a happy childhood and was always well-protected, was ultimately not Uchiha Itachi from the original story; he could not be so ruthless and unfeeling.
However, Asuma, having found his goal, had also completely matured. Their paths were different, and they were destined not to conspire together!
With a slight wavering in his heart, Asuma had already given up his original idea. He was tired; he wanted to give up.
But before giving up, he still had to finish what needed to be done.
A beautiful figure appeared in his mind again, and Asuma whispered in his heart,
Yuhi, I'm sorry, there will be no future.
Asuma tightened the knuckle dusters on his hands, his eyes red and moist, and slowly said,
"I was not threatened!"
He then closed his mouth and attacked the person closest to him.
The Ninja closest to Asuma was momentarily stunned by this unexpected answer, but ultimately reacted, pulling out a Kunai to try and block.
However, the moment Asuma threw his punch, Chakra surged from the knuckle dusters in his hand, followed by a thin membrane of Chakra.
Wind Release Chakra!
Unlike Yuuki, who used all of his Wind Release for showing off, Asuma's Wind Release Chakra was simple and effective.
Sharpness!
This was the characteristic of Asuma's Wind Release Chakra. That Ninja's Kunai was completely useless; the Wind Release Chakra sliced through his body, and he died instantly.
Before dying, this Ninja still stared intently at Asuma, his eyes full of confusion.
Perhaps he was confused as to why his Kunai suddenly broke.
Perhaps he was confused as to why Asuma would kill him, why he would betray his clan members.
Asuma clearly saw the confusion in his eyes, and immediately, his already moist eyes could no longer hold back tears.
Two lines of tears flowed down Asuma's cheeks, but this did not stop Asuma's actions.
Number of people dealt with + 1.
He then attacked another person!
