Chapter 148: Chapter 149 Dark Konoha Sarutobi Asuma's Death



Hinata Hyuga heard her father's call and looked up, her shy smile like a lily about to bloom.

"Father…you are here too."

She lowered her eyelids, her long eyelashes casting two shadows.

Before leaving Konoha, she hesitated whether to tell her father.

Now, facing her father's concerned eyes, her heart couldn't help but be a little flustered.

Hinata Hiashi looked at his daughter, a hint of complexity flashed in his eyes.

He originally thought that Hinata was coerced, but now it seems…

"Hinata, why are you with him? Could it be…"

He paused and asked tentatively:

"Did he coerce you?"

He hoped to hear a negative answer, hoping that all this was just a misunderstanding.

Hinata shook her head, her voice as light as a mosquito:

"No, father. I… I volunteered. I like Brother Baiye."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Baiye, her cheeks flushed.

Seeing this, Baiye contentedly embraced Hinata in his arms and kissed her pink cheek.

"Hinata is so good."

Hinata Hyuga almost fainted with shame, but still snuggled in Baiye's arms without any resistance.

Hinata Hiashi looked at the scene in front of him, and felt as if his chest was blocked by a ball of cotton, and he couldn't breathe.

His most beloved daughter was easily abducted by someone like this.

However, before he could make any move, Bai Ye said loudly:

"Everyone, I came here today for only one purpose, that is to support Tsunade as the fifth Hokage!"

"I have finished speaking. I am in favor. Who is against?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a person walked out of the Hokage building. They were Koharu Utatane and Mitomon En.

"How dare you be so arrogant!"

Koharu Utatane scolded.

However, before she could finish, Bai Ye snapped his fingers lightly.

The next moment, a shocking scene happened – Koharu Utatane's body suddenly exploded, and blood splattered everywhere.

Mitomon En was unable to dodge and was also splashed all over.

"Who else is against?"

Bai Ye looked around at everyone, with a sneer on his face.

"Now, you can think it over."

The air was filled with a bloody smell, and everyone was silent, no one dared to speak again.

Seeing that no one spoke, Bai Ye raised the corner of his mouth.

"Since no one is talking, I will say something more explosive next."

"I also killed Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo."

Bai Ye's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting everyone's heart hard.

Asuma's face turned red in an instant, and his veins popped out. He stared at Bai Ye and roared:

"You…you devil! I want to avenge my father!"

As he said that, he pounced on Bai Ye like an angry lion.

Bai Ye just smiled contemptuously, waved his hand casually, and an invisible gust of wind blew Asma away.

Asma fell heavily to the ground, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

He struggled to get up, but found that his body was firmly suppressed by an invisible force.

"You want revenge?"

Bai Ye's voice was as cold as ice. He slowly walked towards Asma and looked down at him.

Asma raised his head, his eyes full of despair and unwillingness.

He roared:

"Why… why do you do this to my father!"

"Why?"

Bai Ye's eyes were like two cold gems, flashing a chilling light.

He looked down at Asuma with a sneer on his face:

"Do you think your father, the Hokage of Konoha, is really so upright?"

"He is in a high position, but he secretly manipulates countless dirty deals. Those innocent lives have become stepping stones for him to consolidate his power."

Asuma's heart seemed to be torn into pieces. He couldn't believe that the father he had always respected would do such a cruel thing.

He shook his head desperately, his voice hoarse:

"No! Impossible! My father is not such a person, you are lying!"

Kakashi looked at Bai Ye with a serious expression, "Bai Ye, do you have any evidence for what you said?"

He knew Bai Ye's power and madness, but these revelations were too shocking. If true, they would have a huge impact on Konoha Village.

Bai Ye smiled calmly and tapped his chin with his finger, "Evidence? Of course there is."

"As long as you go to the Root with me, you will understand."

Bai Ye's words made everyone look at each other in surprise. The Root has always been the organization that Konoha ninjas least want to mention.

There are many unknown secrets hidden there.

Although they are full of doubts and uneasiness.

But at Kakashi's signal, some Konoha ninjas decided to follow Bai Ye to the Root to find out.

Asuma also went with the help of everyone, suppressing his inner grief.

The underground base of the Root was shrouded in a gloomy and terrifying atmosphere.

Under the dim light, the dampness and bloody smell that permeated the walls were nauseating.

Bai Ye led everyone through the intricate passages, and the air was filled with suffocating depression.

Finally, they stopped in front of a heavy metal door.

With Bai Ye's order, the door opened with a bang, and a shocking scene appeared in front of everyone.

The walls of the secret room were covered with densely packed documents and photos, each of which recorded the unknown dark past of Konoha Village.

Asuma suppressed his inner grief and trembled as he picked up a document.

It recorded in detail the secret operation against Konoha White Fang, and the decision maker of the operation was surprisingly his father.

In order to consolidate his position, he did not hesitate to force a Kage-level strongman to death.

Asuma's pupils suddenly dilated, as if struck by lightning.

His once beloved father, the high and mighty Hokage, would actually do such a cruel thing?

Kakashi looked at these ironclad evidences, and a storm was set off in his heart.

He flipped through every document, trying to find a reasonable explanation.

But in the end, he had to admit that the darkness of Konoha Village was much deeper than he had imagined.

"This… How could this be…"

Asuma muttered to himself, his voice hoarse and weak.

Once, he thought Konoha was the most beautiful place in the ninja world,

But now, he found that he seemed to be wrong.

Tsunade's eyes inadvertently swept across a document, and when she saw the contents on it clearly, her face turned pale instantly.

This mission document records in detail the experience of her brother, Senju Naoki.

In the document, every step clearly records how to force Naoki into a desperate situation step by step until the end of his life.

Not only that, the document also involves the tragic fate of other Senju people.

What is even more unbelievable to Tsunade is that behind this conspiracy, there are actually Shimura Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"These two old guys!"

Tsunade was furious. She could no longer control her emotions. She grabbed the document and tore it into pieces.

Bai Ye looked at Tsunade's livid face, his eyes as calm as a pool of stagnant water.

He said calmly:

"They deserve it, don't they?"

"The Konoha high-level officials sacrificed countless lives for their own selfish desires. Shouldn't they pay the price for it?"

Asuma clenched his fists, anger burning in his eyes.

Although his heart was shaken by the ironclad facts, he still stiffened his neck and refuted:

"What qualifications do you have to decide their life and death?"

"Even if they are wrong, it should be Konoha who judges them, not you who kill innocent people! You are just a murderer!"

Bai Ye sneered, his disdain was evident in his words: "Trial? Konoha's trial has long been manipulated by them and is rotten.

I just want to make the truth clear and make those crimes hidden in the dark have nowhere to hide."

Asuma struggled to get up, but was pressed to the ground by an invisible force again.

He glared at Bai Ye angrily and roared:

"Do you think you can change Konoha like this? You only bring chaos and killing!"

Bai Ye narrowed his eyes, and a dangerous light flashed in his eyes:

"Chaos is only temporary. Only by eliminating these tumors can Konoha be reborn from the ashes."

"Will you choose to continue to maintain this false peace, or join me to create a new future for Konoha?"

The surrounding ninjas fell silent.

HeThey looked at everything in front of them with mixed feelings.

Bai Ye's methods made them feel fear and anger, but the dark truths revealed made them deeply suspicious of Konoha.

They didn't know how to choose.

Yamanaka Inoichi and Akimichi Choji looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion and struggle.

They all looked at Nara Shikaku, hoping that this resourceful old friend could point them in the right direction.

Nara Shikaku frowned, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

He looked around at everyone, and his eyes finally fell on the wall covered with bloodstains and evidence of crimes.

Konoha's past was like a bloody scroll, constantly rolling in his mind.

He hated the dark truth, but he had to admit that Bai Ye's extreme methods tore off Konoha's rotten fig leaf.

After a moment of silence, Nara Shikaku slowly spoke, his voice steady and powerful:

"`~We have always protected Konoha and regarded it as our home."

"But now the truth is out, we can no longer deceive ourselves."

"Although Bai Ye's methods are cruel, he may be the powerful medicine that Konoha urgently needs when it is terminally ill."

"I choose to follow him, not to approve of his killing, but to hope to find a new way for Konoha in the ninja world."

Nara Shikaku's words were like thunder, exploding in everyone's hearts.

Some people were shocked, some were lost in thought, and Asuma shouted in disbelief:

"Shikaku, are you crazy? He is the murderer of the Hokage!"

Nara Shikaku looked at Asuma, his eyes full of grief:

"Asuma, I know this is hard to accept."

"But the Konoha we are protecting is already terminally ill, and we can no longer escape."

"Perhaps by cooperating with Bai Ye, only then can the problem be solved from the root and Konoha can be revitalized."

Bai Ye's mouth curled up with a sneer, as if he had already expected Nara Shikaku's decision:

"A wise choice, Shikaku."

"Next, we should plan carefully how to clean up the mess of Konoha thoroughly."

Kakashi looked at everything in front of him, with mixed feelings in his heart.

He understood that once this decision was made, it meant a complete farewell to the past Konoha.

Sarutobi Asuma's face was red, veins were bulging, and his eyes were as red as blood.

He could not accept Nara Shikaku's decision. The anger and pain in his heart erupted like a volcano, almost swallowing him.

He stared at Bai Ye, clenched his fists, his knuckles turned white, and his body trembled like leaves in the wind.

Yuhi Kurenai looked at Sarutobi Asuma's almost collapsed appearance, and she was a little worried.

After all, the other party and she have been friends for so many years.

She stepped forward lightly, stretched out her hand to hold him, and wanted to persuade him to give up his unrealistic ideas.

"Asuma, calm down, we…"

However, Sarutobi AsumaBut he suddenly shook her hand away and roared:

"Calm down? How can you ask me to calm down! You actually betrayed my father too?!"

Yuhi Kurenai's brows knitted instantly, and she said coldly: "Asuma, you…"

Before she finished her words, she was interrupted by Asuma.

Sarutobi Asuma turned his head and cast his hateful eyes at Bai Ye again, roaring:

"I don't care! I must kill him today!"

After that, he rushed towards Bai Ye regardless of everything.

Chakra surged in his body like waves, his hands quickly formed seals, and he performed the strongest ninjutsu, trying to die with Bai Ye.

However, Bai Ye just shook his head lightly, with a flash of disdain in his eyes, as if he was looking at an ant who didn't know his own strength.

When Asuma Sarutobi's attack was about to hit, Bai Ye didn't even move, just lightly snapped his fingers.

The next second, Asuma Sarutobi's body exploded directly, just like what happened to Koharu Utatane before.

Yuhi Kurenai looked at this scene, feeling mixed emotions.

She felt sad for Asuma's defeat, but also helpless for his persistence.

Perhaps, death is really a relief for him.

Then, Bai Ye led everyone back to the Hokage Building.

Sitting in the Hokage's seat, holding Tsunade in his arms, and standing beside him were Uchiha Mikoto and others, Bai Ye looked like a winner.

"Now that the matter has been resolved, let's prepare for the Hokage succession ceremony next."

Bai Ye's voice was calm with a hint of unquestionable majesty.
