Start with the Mangekyō and leave Konoha with Madara.

From the 23rd year to the 25th year of Konoha, the position of the patriarch of the Uchiha clan changed constantly, and every year, countless talented people fell.

Unexpectedly, the village has remained on the sidelines regarding this matter.

The Third Hokage once stated that the upper echelons should not interfere in the affairs of the Uchiha clan. If they intervene rashly, it is very likely to backfire and cause the isolation and alienation of the Uchiha clan. Therefore, this problem can only be left to the Uchiha themselves to solve.

At this moment, in the Uchiha clan, the newly appointed clan leader stared at Uchiha Zhili sinisterly. His heterochromatic eyes, one red and one white, contained deep darkness, as if they wanted to devour the person in his eyes.

He has just taken office. If we were to ask who in the tribe is qualified to challenge him, this 16-year-old girl is the most likely candidate!

She has shown great talent since she was a child, and she already had the strength of a jonin right after graduation. It is said that her Sharingan has been developed to the three-magatama stage, and with her four years of work experience in the guard team, she has both strength and prestige.

And because of her outstanding abilities, she was promoted to the position of captain of the guard by Konoha this month, and even he, the clan leader, began to covet her.

This "Hell Valley Mission" was a trap set up to target her. If they could take the opportunity to weaken her power and exclude her from the competition, that would be great. At the very least, they could get her away and buy time to consolidate their power.

Therefore, in the face of Zhili's "reasonable argument", he showed a completely arbitrary and autocratic attitude and was absolutely unwilling to take back his order.

Zhili looked into the patriarch's eyes for a long time, and a deep disappointment flashed in his eyes.

Soon, the scene that the clan leader had been looking forward to most appeared. In order to prevent Kirito from being killed, Chiri decisively resigned from the position of captain of the Konoha Guard and accompanied Kirito to Hell Valley.

"Sister Zhili, is this really okay?"

Kirito asked hesitantly, he felt frustrated because he was the one who got his sister into trouble.

"You are my only brother. Compared to you, it doesn't matter what I lose." Zhili rubbed his brother's head, his beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a doting smile.

Orochimaru and Uchiha Nen looked at each other, confirmed each other's eyes, and stood up together.

"Let's go too!"

"Ah? Are you kidding me?" Kirito raised his eyebrows and immediately refused: "I feel guilty for getting my sister into trouble. If I get you into trouble again... what kind of friends are we?"

"By the same token, if I watched you fall into the quagmire and did nothing, I would not be considered a friend." Orochimaru spread his hands.

Uchiha Nen put his hands behind his back, looking like a little adult, "That makes sense. Besides, if you don't believe in our strength, don't you believe in Sister Zhili's strength?"

"This……"

Orochimaru patted Kirito's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, it's just an exploratory mission. More people means more care."

"Sister, please help me persuade them!" Kirito said anxiously.

Zhili looked at Orochimaru silently, thought for a moment, and said softly: "Since this is the decision of your close friends, in order to respond to their awareness, you should not refuse."

"But……"

"Don't worry, sister will protect you all." Zhili smiled gently.

With the insistence of several people, Kirito finally succumbed to them, and the four of them finally formed a team. In order to avoid intervention from the clan leader, Zhili submitted the mission application to the Hokage Building in advance and successfully passed the Hokage's certification.

On the day of departure, the matter took an unexpected turn.

"Jiraiya? Tsunade?" Orochimaru frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"

The four of them looked at Jiraiya and Tsunade who had been waiting at the village entrance, and they were all confused.

"The teacher is very concerned about the Blood Pond Clan in Hell Valley, and he is worried that you can't do it alone, so he sent the two of us to assist."

Jiraiya held a transfer order between his fingertips and waved it coolly.

"The coordination among the three of us in Team 7 needs to be improved. We need some practical experience. This is a good opportunity. Besides, Zhili is a very trustworthy ninja. I feel relieved to have her as the team leader."

Tsunade shook her hair, "The above are Sarutobi-sensei's original words."

Zhili took the transfer order, read it carefully, and then raised a slightly charming smile at the corner of his lips.

As smart as she is, she has already figured out the reasons for the right and wrong.

What is Orochimaru's identity? Putting aside the fact that he is Kirito's best friend, he is the direct disciple of the third Hokage.

Not only did the Hokage reject her resignation letter, he even approved her proposal to leave the village and sent two other disciples to accompany her. This shows that the village is not completely ignoring the current situation of the Uchiha.

The existence of the three ninjas in Team 7 is like an insurance policy for Zhili, which is already a subtle intervention.

The incident happened suddenly. The Uchiha clan leader suddenly issued an overseas mission. His intention was known to everyone. It was clearly a trap targeting Uchiha Zhili.

Even so, the Third Hokage still sent his own disciples out to accompany Chiri and others, just to prevent the Uchiha from killing them. No matter how crazy they were, they dared not rashly attack the Hokage's lineage.

This move is to warn the other party not to go too far. No matter how you fight in the village, do not involve people outside the village.

Zhili could even think that, to some extent, the Hokage had chosen to bet on it.

Thinking of this, she smiled slightly and nodded, "Welcome, both of you. Let me formally introduce myself. My name is Uchiha Chisori, and I am still the captain of the Konoha Guard. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation."

Jiraiya smoothed his hair, grinned, and extended his hand to Zhili, "Nice to meet you. My name is Jiraiya. Give me the love letter later."

Before Jiri could shake his hand, Orochimaru silently grabbed Jiraiya by the collar and pulled him towards him.

"Tsk." Jiraiya was a little dissatisfied. He turned his head and saw a row of warning eyes, coming from Orochimaru, Kirito, and Uchiha Nen on the far right.

The gaze was icy cold, as if it wanted to cut him into pieces.

He shrank his neck in dismay, thinking of some bad memories.

"Nice to meet you. My name is Tsunade. My favorite food is tender chicken and shochu. I hate sweets. Don't underestimate me because I'm a girl. I'm a medical ninja!"

"Hello, little Tsunade, I've heard of you for a long time." Zhili held Tsunade and smiled gently.

"Well! This sister didn't call me 'Princess' like the others!" Tsunade was a little surprised and hugged Zhili's slender waist enthusiastically, "I like this sister."

Zhili touched Tsunade's head and buried her little face in her chest, "Ah, sister likes you too. You know, you and Kirito actually have the same birthday..."

At this point, a reconnaissance team led by the Jonin Uchiha Jisato, the Genin Uchiha Kirito, the young Sannin, and an Uchiha Nen of unknown strength, set out on the road to Hell Valley.
