"Cee?!"

Stabbed through the heart from behind, Kuraki, who had intended to persist in the fight, turned around in disbelief, only to be met with a face he knew all too well.

"Captain Kuraki!"

"I don't know why... I just couldn't control my body..."

Confronted by the lifeless gaze of Kuraki before him, the Cloud Ninja named Cee appeared both panicked and pained.

Originally planning to collaborate with his captain Kuraki in the attack, Cee found his body acting uncontrollably, thrusting a sword through Kuraki's body.

"What a touching drama..."

"Since it's come to this... I'll give you a quick and painless end."

At that moment, gazing at the two completely shattered Cloud Ninja before him, Yu's smirk curled up like that of a mischievous demon.

With a flick of his left thumb and pinkie finger, Cee's sword in hand completely crushed Kuraki's heart.

After countless life-and-death struggles on the battlefield, honing his skills, Yu could effortlessly use Parasitic Threads Manipulation with his current strength against a Chunin like Cee.

"Captain Kuraki!"

"You wretched scoundrel, I'll slaughter you!"

Controlled by Yu, Kuraki was killed by his own hands. Cloud Ninja Cee, driven into a frenzy, resembled a mad beast.

A dazzling lightning burst forth from his body, and in his rage, he temporarily broke free from the constraints of Parasitic Threads, transforming into a bolt of lightning charging toward Yu.

"Did he go berserk under emotional turmoil?"

Seeing Cee, a mere Chunin, break free from his control in anger, Yu's eyes revealed a hint of surprise.

"Then kill him, Toshogun."

However, Yu didn't consider a rampaging Chunin to pose any threat. Without even sparing a glance at the raging Cee charging towards him, he muttered lowly. Toshogun, who had already frozen the entire battlefield, promptly appeared at his side.

Ice Time!!

Without needing any powerful moves, Toshogun, now completely Elementalized into the demonic form of ice, easily blocked Cee's attacks. The terrifying Freezing Air emanating from Toshogun froze Cee into an ice sculpture.

This guy...

Due to killing so many enemies, even his originally white hair had been dyed crimson by fresh blood. Cee's body was instantly frozen, his consciousness gradually fading. His final gaze was fixed firmly on Yu standing on the icy ground. Looking at the faint crimson blood on Yu's hair as white as the moon, Cee's heart suddenly gained a strange enlightenment.

So that's it...

That's what his name means...

"Lord Yu!"

"Lord Yu!"

At this moment, several voices approached from afar, and a group of Konoha Ninja arrived at the frozen battlefield.

"Hiss..."

"We're late. It seems Lord Yu has taken care of all the enemies."

Hurriedly arriving, a group of Konoha Ninja couldn't help but inhale sharply as they looked at the battlefield frozen for miles and all the Ninja turned into ice sculptures.

"This kid is simply a monster..."

"In such a short time, he has already made a name for himself on the battlefield."

"Indeed, some people are just extraordinary..."

Also arriving was Akimichi Doto. Watching the white-haired youth, who was putting away his demonic puppets and approaching them, Akimichi Doto couldn't help but smile wryly.

You see, he and Inuzuka Gaku had been in the ninja world for so long without making a name for themselves. Meanwhile, in less than a year since participating in the Third Ninja World War, Yu had already become famous in the ninja world.

"Alright, don't sigh here, Senior Akimichi."

Approaching Akimichi Doto, who was sighing on the side, Yu's lips revealed a hint of a smile. "I heard that Minato has already repelled the Cloud's A and B brothers combination. We can't fall too far behind."

"Minato, huh..."

Upon hearing Yu mention Minato Namikaze, one of Yellow Flash's teammates, Akimichi Doto, couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion on his face. "That guy is no ordinary person. Although he's a ninja of the same generation, he has always been ahead of us."

"If we talk about surpassing... maybe only you, kid, can pull it off in this world."

Saying this, Akimichi Doto deeply looked at Yu in front of him.

In this era, Yellow Flash, whose talent almost dominated the ninja world, undoubtedly shone as the most dazzling star in the Third Ninja World War.

If someone had told Akimichi Doto before this that there was a ninja whose talent could surpass Minato Namikaze, he would have scoffed at it as a joke.

However, after experiencing this half-year of war with Yu, witnessing the youth's incredible methods and strength, Akimichi Doto's conviction had finally been deeply shaken.

Surpassing the Yellow Flash...

Perhaps...

Feeling Akimichi Doto's inexplicable hopeful gaze, Yu remained noncommittal, his eyes gazing at the distant sky hanging low over the battlefield, his thoughts drifting farther and farther away.

If I'm not mistaken about the timing...

It's about time for Minato Namikaze to become the Fourth Hokage of Konoha, isn't it?

...

Land of Fire, Daimyo's residence.

While all Konoha ninjas guarded the front lines of the battlefield, an important meeting was taking place here.

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire and all ministers, Konoha's Lord Third Hokage, and the higher-ups were gathered here today.

"What a pity..."

"Lord Third did quite well..."

Using an elegant folding fan to cover his mouth, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, whose face bore a soft expression, spoke.

"There's no other choice..."

"I'm stepping down from the position of Hokage of Konoha, it's the best consolation for all the ninjas sacrificed in this war."

Facing all the lords and ministers of the Land of Fire and the high-ranking officials of Konoha, Lord Third spoke solemnly.

If we trace it back, it's because Lord Third's ideals were too naive that the village was pushed to such a state.

"At present, what we need in a Hokage is someone who can lead the village through transformation and uphold the ninja code. We need such a talent," Lord Third said.

Hearing Lord Third's words, Danzo seized the opportunity to speak. "Oh? Do you have a suitable candidate?"

Seeing Danzo, one of the strongest high-ranking elders of Konoha, step forward to speak, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire looked at him with interest. "I recommend Orochimaru, known as one of the Legendary Three Ninjas."

"Orochimaru, one of the Legendary Three Ninjas... That is indeed a good candidate," said the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.

Upon hearing Danzo's proposal, the ministers of the Land of Fire in the room began to murmur quietly.

"Danzo proposes Orochimaru, so what is your opinion, Lord Third?"

Seeing the mysterious and uncertain atmosphere at the large meeting table, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire turned his gaze to Lord Third, who remained silent.

Everyone present was well aware that, even though he was about to step down, Lord Third's opinions and views still played a decisive role in the election of the Fourth Hokage of Konoha.
