When Aizen spoke, Saki was momentarily stunned, as if something had suddenly come to mind, and his expression immediately turned somewhat serious. Aizen didn't seem to care, and instead, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, as if he were expecting something. His eyes showed a hint of interest.

Shortly after Aizen finished speaking, the Iwa-nin, who had been dealing with the corpses of Konoha ninja, furrowed their brows slightly.

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" From between the distant tall trees, several sharp whistling sounds suddenly echoed.

"Retreat!" An Iwa-nin urgently called out in a deep voice.

Several Iwa-nin, who had been hiding in the shadows, immediately dodged to the side.

"Thud!" "Thud!" "Thud!" The crisp sound of several black kunai firmly embedding themselves in the tree trunks could be heard.

The Iwa-nin's expressions tensed as they quickly looked in the direction from which the kunai had been thrown.

"Swish!" "Swish!" "Swish!" In the distance, a few ninja wearing Konoha uniforms were rushing toward them. When they finally appeared in front of the Iwa-nin, it became apparent that they were no ordinary ninja.

On their sleeves, collars, or the back of their clothing, they bore a distinctive fan emblem.

"How did you discover us, Konoha ninja!?" one of the Iwa-nin asked in a deep voice.

Although they had been discovered, losing the chance to ambush this group of Konoha ninja, it didn't mean that they would lose to them. The Iwa-nin team leader had already decided that once they received an answer, they would immediately attack and quickly eliminate these people to avoid interfering with the orders from Lord Tsuchikage.

Upon hearing the question, the group of Konoha ninja looked at him coldly. "You must be Iwa-nin. How dare you attack Konoha again? You've been ambushing our ninja like this for a while, haven't you?"

The Iwa-nin's face darkened as he responded in a deep voice. "It seems we're speaking at cross purposes. In that case, let's settle this with our fists."

With that, he signaled for the Iwa-nin behind him to prepare for battle. Seeing their movements, the black-haired Konoha ninja smirked disdainfully. One of the younger ninja stepped forward, his expression cold as he spoke.

"Killing a few weaklings has made you so arrogant? Do you really think everyone in this village is as weak as them?"

Hearing the young ninja's words, the Iwa-nin leader's face remained grim, but he sneered and replied. "Young one, you'll soon realize you're no different from the others. In the end, you'll die by our hands."

He was about to attack, but when he took another look at the young man standing high on the tree branch, his face turned pale instantly.

"Sharingan!?" The young ninja stood tall on the branch, arms crossed, expressionless. He glanced down at the Iwa-nin with cold, downward-slanting eyes.

In his eye sockets were two crimson Sharingan with double tomoe.

"You're from the Uchiha clan!?" The Iwa-nin's face twisted, his voice hoarse.

The young ninja pressed his lips together and, with an air of disdain, coldly said:

"To compare us to those commoners is an insult to the Uchiha. You will pay for that insult with your lives!"

With that, he leaped from the tree.

The other Uchiha clan members followed closely behind.

In the dense forest under the night sky, the sounds of screams echoed continuously. The Iwa-nin stood no chance against the Uchiha, whose Sharingan were already activated.

"Drip." "Drip." "Drip. Corpses piled on top of each other in gruesome positions, blood flowing from their wounds, forming a small pool that slowly dripped from the tree roots into a hollow.

The tree roots absorbed the blood, and the branches seemed fuller, nourished by the many bodies, likely for a long time.

The young Uchiha ninja wiped the blood off his kunai. His Sharingan slowly returned to normal, and with a focused look in his eyes, he glanced into the distance and said coldly:

"Let's go. For the sake of Lord Fugaku, the Uchiha clan must achieve enough merit in this war!"

Upon hearing this, the other ninja behind him nodded solemnly. A middle-aged ninja chuckled lightly and said:

"Horo, with young talent like you, Lord Fugaku will certainly reach that position."

The young Uchiha ninja named Horo said nothing, only nodding slightly before quickly moving forward. The group followed closely behind, gradually disappearing into the dark forest.

After they left, the scene, filled with the stench of blood, rippled as a barrier slowly dissolved, revealing three figures hidden behind it.

In the center, Aizen's lips curled into a smile as he said softly:

"A promising child indeed. His movements were flawless, perfectly utilizing the Sharingan's abilities."

Hearing this, Saki replied softly:

"Yes, Lord Aizen, the taijutsu he displayed is far beyond what someone his age should be capable of mastering."

"Unfortunately... his Sharingan is only at the double tomoe level. If I recall correctly, Shino had already reached the triple tomoe by this age," Aizen said with a light chuckle.

"Sometimes, great potential isn't always a blessing. I can grant him strength and talent, but a person's nature isn't so easily controlled," Aizen continued with a smile.

"I do appreciate the cold, ruthless nature he displayed," he added.

Saki hesitated for a moment but said nothing.

Aizen noticed his expression and smiled lightly.

"Don't worry. We will meet him soon enough."

"But for now, I'm more curious about something else. If I'm not mistaken, the Fugaku he mentioned should be Shino and Sakuya's younger brother. Has he already become the head of the Uchiha clan?"

As he said this, a smile appeared in his eyes as he softly murmured:

"If that's the case, I'm very much looking forward to the fireworks that will ignite when the younger brother, showered in glory, finally meets his older brother."

Hearing this, Saki was momentarily confused and asked:

"Lord Aizen, are you saying that Shino will...?"

Aizen's eyes narrowed slightly, filled with amused anticipation as he murmured softly:

"It will be interesting, won't it?"

Meanwhile...

In the northwest corner of Konoha, Tsunade and her team hurried to the scene, but what they saw left them feeling extremely uneasy.
