Qianyu casually added all thirty merit points she had just acquired to her pupil power.

……

At the same time, Qianyu also heard another notification sound.
Ding!
[Congratulations, host! You have accumulated over one hundred merit points!]
[Congratulations, host, you have gained a new ability... Lightning Release Ninjutsu!]
[Currently unlocked... Lightning Release: False Darkness (Beginner 50/100)!]
Qianyu's heart stirred.
"Hmm? So accumulating a certain number of merit points will unlock new abilities?"
"Lightning Release ninjutsu... is indeed a chakra nature I possess, but I haven't trained in it before."
"Lightning Release: False Darkness, I remember it as..."
In the original work, this is Kakuzu's Lightning Release ninjutsu, an S-rank rogue ninja from the Akatsuki organization.
The power... is terrifying!
It even forced Kakashi Hatake to use S-rank ninjutsu with both hands, Lightning Blade and Double Lightning Shock, to counter it!
With such powerful Lightning Release ninjutsu, Chiba became even more effective in carrying out his official duties.
A rare smile appeared on his lips.
Just then, two figures came rushing towards them from the road ahead.
Leading the group was none other than the head of the Uchiha clan...
Uchiha Fugaku.
His expression changed instantly when he saw Qianyu.
"Chiba, how are you?"
"Hiruzen Sarutobi..."
Qianyu stopped and shook her head calmly.
"fine."
Uchiha Yamakaze, who was chasing closely behind him, quickly explained what had happened.
After hearing this, Fugaku Uchiha breathed a sigh of relief for Chiba, but he couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions.
"Hiruzen Sarutobi, that old fox is indeed formidable..."
Uchiha Aoki nodded repeatedly.
"He saw through the people's hearts and acted so flawlessly that all the ninja villagers watching were grateful to him, completely forgetting that the murderer who killed the innocent villagers was executed by Captain Chiba..."
Uchiha Yamakaze also sneered, "What a cunning old fox!"
Fugaku Uchiha sighed, "If it weren't for this, how could Hiruzen Sarutobi have sat comfortably on the Hokage's throne for decades?"
"When it comes to manipulating people's hearts, no one can rival him..."
Uchiha Yamakaze cautiously probed, "Clan Chief, you were furious when Captain Chiba attacked civilians last time, and this time you directly killed the head of the Sarutobi clan, the Hokage's nephew. Why are you so calm and composed, without any intention of blaming the captain?"
Fugaku gave a wry smile.
"Would blaming him do any good?"
"Furthermore, I've thought carefully about what Chiyu said last time, and it might not be entirely unreasonable..."
"Since no matter what we do, we can't change the attitude of the Konoha leadership and the villagers towards the Uchiha clan, we might as well just go ahead and do it..."
"Qianyu, you did a great job."
"It's just a pity that much of the credit was taken by Hiruzen Sarutobi..."
Qianyu said indifferently, "I don't care about those things."
Fugaku glared at him: "Don't care my foot! Listen, you can do things without expecting anything in return, but we have no reason to let the enemy take the credit!"
Uchiha Aoki and Uchiha Yamakaze nodded repeatedly.
"The clan chief is right!"
Qianyu said, "No one can control everything forever..."
"Whether it is good or evil, black or white, will eventually become clear."
Fugaku stared at him, remaining silent for a moment.
After a long pause, he shook his head and sighed, "You, with your extreme methods, sometimes seem so naive..."
Qianyu said, "I've always been an optimist."
"I firmly believe that as long as we keep killing, one day we will wipe out all evil."
Fugaku took a deep breath.
"Maybe..."
……
In the Hokage's office.
Hiruzen Sarutobi is in a rage.
boom!
He slammed his fist down hard, shaking the entire table and sending countless documents flying in all directions.
Sarutobi Hiroshi was so frightened that he trembled all over.
"Okay, okay..."
"You two, father and son, are truly wonderful..."
"I made you the clan leader, and this is how you repay me?!"
Hiroshi Sarutobi immediately knelt down on the ground.
"Lord Hokage, I... I can't just watch Jiro go and die..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi was consumed by rage.
"Fool! Do you think I'd just stand by and watch Jiro die?!"
Did I say you couldn't save him?
"But what did you do? So many ninja villagers were watching, in broad daylight, under everyone's watchful eyes, and you openly abused your power and protected your own son! What are you trying to do?!"
"You may be shameless, but have you ever considered what about the reputation of the Sarutobi clan?"
"Where is my face, the face of the Hokage?!"
Sarutobi Hiyoshi then realized that Sarutobi Hiruzen was not angry that he had protected his son, but that he had protected his son "in public" and almost ruined his reputation and prestige.
He couldn't help but feel angry.
Is your reputation, Hiruzen Sarutobi, more important than my son's life?!
But he didn't dare to retaliate at all.
Hiruzen Sarutobi saw it all clearly.
"You're not convinced, are you?"
"Do you think I value my reputation more than your son's life?"
Sunrise Sarutobi remained silent.
"idiot!"
"Of course, things need to be done, but the key is how to do them!"
"I entrusted you with such an important task, and it turns out you don't even understand this simple principle!"
"It seems that removing you from your position as clan leader was indeed the right choice!"
At this moment, Hiroshi Sarutobi was overwhelmed with grief and had long since become completely numb.
"It doesn't matter anymore... I'm not qualified to be a clan leader anyway..."
"If you can't even protect your own son, what kind of clan leader are you?"
"Hehehe..."
He was utterly dejected, like a walking corpse, and silently retreated.
"you……"
Hiruzen Sarutobi's anger seemed to be vented into the air, finding no outlet, which only fueled his rage.
The ANBU member beside him said, "Lord Hokage, he has just lost his son and is probably not listening to your reprimand."
"Moreover, he's lost his position as clan leader, and all he probably has left in his heart is hatred for Uchiha Chiba..."
"If this continues, he might do something foolish..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded.
"Have someone keep an eye on him."
"Yes, Hokage-sama!"
Several members of the secret service immediately pushed open the door and came out. At the same time, another figure appeared in front of the door.
"Hmm? It's Shisui..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi suppressed his anger and forced himself to adopt a calm expression.
Uchiha Shisui was his most powerful and important card in dealing with the Uchiha clan.
There must be no mistakes.
"What's wrong? You look a little down..."
Uchiha Shisui knelt down on the ground.
"I'm sorry, Hokage-sama, you ordered me to enlighten Uchiha Chiba, but that man..."
"Is he completely unreasonable?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi forced a smile.
"That's just the kind of person he is; he's not so easily persuaded."
"Never mind, I was just saying it offhand."
"However, Shisui..."
"Judging from your eyes, you haven't actually been persuaded by that guy, have you?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi stared intently at Shisui Uchiha...
Suddenly, a cold glint appeared.
