At the entrance of the Hokage Building.
The two sides confronted each other. The atmosphere was tense.
"Wood Style Akira, you are going too far," an Anbu member said in a deep voice.
They were reasonably asking for the scroll. Without it, how would they know the specific mission details?
"Oh? Am I going too far?" Akira shook his head.
"It seems you are very forgetful. You just finished slandering us, and you forgot so quickly?"
"When did I slander you? I merely said I wouldn't form a team with your Squad 9," the Anbu justified.
"Bullsh*t!" Akira cursed directly, snatching the Exploding Tags from Rin's hand. Without a second thought, he threw dozens of them.
Seeing this, both sides were shocked.
"Whoa!"
"Back off!"
"You're crazy!"
The six Anbu retreated into the Hokage Building, their minds reeling.
They believed Akira was only bluffing; as long as they were inside the building, he would never dare to activate the Exploding Tags. After all, this was the Hokage's seat of power!
"Akira, don't get excited, please don't!" Rin shouted, frantic with worry. If he set off the tags, the Hokage Building would be gone.
"Go, you fool." Anko dragged Rin away, retreating with Uzuki Yūgao. Anko fully believed Akira was capable of blowing up a building.
He dared to kill the Hokage's son, why wouldn't he do this?
"Senior Akira, I'll fall back first," Yamato informed him before running away.
"You have to think about this, this is the Hokage..." Before Kakashi could finish the word 'Building,' he was dumbfounded.
He saw dozens of Exploding Tags light up in unison.
"Oh my God!" Kakashi and the others were stunned, turning around and sprinting into the distance.
"Hehe~~" Akira grinned, his shadow flickering with a reddish hue.
Next moment.
BANG~~
A violent explosion erupted, a deafening declaration of destruction. Flames soared into the sky, mixed with thick black smoke. The surrounding ground shook violently; the shockwave was intensely felt.
Beneath the black smoke, the Hokage Building lay bombed and half-collapsed.
Hokage's Office.
Sarutobi Hiruzen held his pen, his expression blank. The desk in front of him was gone, the papers were gone, and the floor was gone.
BAM! A piece of shattered roof debris fell and struck Sarutobi Hiruzen's head. His expression shifted from blank to enraged.
"Who? Who dares to blow up the Hokage Building!"
At the same time.
Squad 9 gathered nearby, the white atmosphere unusually quiet.
"Um, why don't I go home and pack my things? Should we make a run for it?" Rin broke the silence.
"I also want to clean up and take my money," Uzuki Yūgao echoed.
"What are you worrying about? Didn't you see how calm Akira was? He must have a plan," Anko pouted. Although she said this, she was still very worried. What if Akira acted impulsively?
"This time, it's a little troublesome," Kakashi also warned.
"I think Senior Akira did the right thing! Who told those Anbu to try and steal our scroll?" Yamato had a face full of admiration, admiring and yearning for what Senior Akira had done.
"Huh? You're a good kid. It seems you've truly integrated into Squad 9," Akira glanced at Yamato and praised him.
Then he said: "Let's go to the Hokage Building."
"Ah?" Several people couldn't believe it.
Going to the Hokage Building now? Wasn't that self-inflicted punishment?
"No, Akira, what are you thinking? Let us in on it," Kakashi felt dizzy. Shouldn't they have prepared an alibi first?
"Do you even need to think about it?" Akira looked surprised.
"Such a simple question, and you still need to think?" He repeated.
"Don't look at us like that; we really can't figure it out," Rin quickly waved her hand.
"Yes, tell us," Uzuki Yūgao urged.
"I admit you're smarter, so hurry up and tell us," Anko conceded to Akira's IQ.
Akira rubbed his forehead, feeling that his squadmates weren't progressing. After being on a team with me for so long, why hasn't their IQ improved?
"Oh~~ It's actually very simple! Who said we bombed the building?"
Several people: "???"
"Hey, those Anbu know," Anko reminded him.
"Except for them?" Akira countered.
"It should be just us," Kakashi said.
"That's right! They'll say we did it, and I'll say they did it!" Akira looked calm.
When he said this, several people looked thoughtful. Kakashi was the first to spot the problem.
"Akira, you know those six people retreated into the Hokage Building," Kakashi pointed out the loophole.
"So?" Akira's face remained unchanged.
"So, it's impossible for them to blow up the building. Because blowing up the building is equivalent to blowing up themselves."
Hearing this, the others agreed.
"That's right. If they bombed the building, they would have run outside," Uzuki Yūgao said firmly.
"I think so too," Rin said weakly.
"Akira, are you sure? Has your brain degraded?" Anko pouted.
"Hmm?" Akira looked at Anko in surprise, feeling that Anko's skin was itchy.
"Little Red~~ Just you wait!"
Casually threatening Anko, Akira turned to look at Yamato.
"Yamato, what do you think?"
"Ah? Me? I think those six people did it," Yamato said firmly. But immediately afterward, he added another sentence: "However, I think what the seniors said is also reasonable."
Good grief. Akira thought Yamato was a talent.
This kid seemed to have an innate knack for playing both sides.
In the field, Kakashi and the others stared at Akira. They were waiting for Akira to refute the loophole.
If he couldn't refute it, they should seriously consider running away. After all, bombing the Hokage Building could easily be escalated to the level of destroying the village.
After scanning the group, Akira cleared his throat.
"You all think that since those people ran into the building, they wouldn't blow it up! Right?"
They all nodded in unison.
"Now you've got it right!" Akira smiled.
"You think so, and everyone else thinks so! Even those six Anbu think so too!"
"Therefore, they are taking advantage of this misunderstanding! They ran into the building to blow it up and then naturally dump the blame on us!"
"So, do you understand?"
With Akira's analysis complete, Squad 9 was furious.
"That's outrageous! That's despicable!"
"Exactly! They ran into the building to blow it up and frame us!"
"We'll ask the Hokage to pass judgment!"
"Let's go!"
