Naruto: The ANBU God

It was truly unbelievable!

Especially looking at Homura Mitokado, whose head had been literally blown apart.

Those present at the scene were initially incredulous, their minds went blank, and they immediately began to rub their eyes, fearing that their vision was deceiving them.

But... the fact remained: Homura was truly dead.

He had been killed without warning by the "Superhero of Konoha": Luo Lei.

And so, in this situation, the expressions of countless people at the scene were frozen.

Hiruzen, Koharu, and Danzo stood paralyzed, not knowing what to say or do.

The ninjas of the Hyuga clan, the Uchiha clan, the Nara clan, and others, widened their eyes, stunned by what they had just witnessed.

The Konoha army, as well as Tsunade, Jiraiya, Minato, Shikaku, and others, could not maintain their calm expressions, and all were completely stupefied.

No one thought this would happen.

It was a day that was supposed to be one of celebration and joy for everyone, but something like this happened without any warning!

Luo Lei didn't say a single word, nor was there any sign. He just killed Homura Mitokado just like that? What... what is he trying to do?!

.....

!

As time passed, and until Homura's headless body fell to the ground, everyone at the scene awoke from their shock, as if they had been in a dream.

"Ah... ah! Homura-sama has been killed!"

"Luo Lei-sama... why... why did he kill a member of the council?!"

"How is this possible?! Why is this happening?!"

Accompanied by an uproar, those at the scene showed expressions of horror and disbelief. The impact of the scene before them was overwhelming.

It was truly terrifying.

And the most terrifying thing of all was the person who had done it: Luo Lei.

"Homura... d-dead?!"

Hiruzen wiped off the blood that had splattered on his Hokage robes, as he began to sweat and his face filled with surprise and fear.

He knew Luo Lei was capable of reckless acts, but... he never thought he would be bold enough to do something like this, without caring who stood in his way.

Previously, Danzo had already taken the blame, but even so, Luo Lei still wanted to kill Homura.

This was no longer just about killing someone. It was a direct provocation, an absolute disregard for the members of the Konoha Council, and he did it in front of the entire village, without remorse.

But even more frustrating was that, in front of Luo Lei, they, the Konoha council, had been submissive and accommodating, yielding again and again.

The result?

All of it had been for nothing. Luo Lei had become more insolent, showed them no respect whatsoever, and simply killed Homura just like that.

"Is this... real?!"

Koharu's face was completely pale, and she realized that her entire body was drenched in sweat. She had contemplated many possibilities, but never imagined that Luo Lei would not care at all about his reputation in front of the people of Konoha.

"Damn it... damn it all!!"

Danzo, who was hiding behind Hiruzen, was also terrified, a look of horror in his eyes.

Yes, that was the feeling: being completely dominated and having no value in Luo Lei's eyes.

Seeing Luo Lei act without concern for the consequences, Danzo clearly remembered the feeling of helplessness he had experienced in the camp at Kikyoyama, when Luo Lei crushed him mercilessly.

Thinking of that, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He had been too naive and had completely underestimated Luo Lei.

"Just as expected of you, Luo Lei-kun!"

Not far away, Orochimaru showed a smile and murmured to himself with his arms crossed, "I wonder what the old man will do about this. Will he seek revenge for his dear friend and colleague, or will he just stand by and swallow his pride once again?"

'Luo Lei-sama, you are absolutely amazing!! Incredible!'

At the front of the Uchiha clan ninjas, Futian kept a calm expression, but inside, his heart was overflowing with joy.

In fact, if you looked closely, you could see that not only were some Uchiha clan ninjas happy; even members of other clans like the Hyuga, the Nara, and others were filled with a shared sense of relief after the initial shock.

For too long, the members of the Konoha Council had used their privileges to abuse their power and cause trouble for these clans.

Because of that, resentment had been building up for years, waiting for this moment of justice.

Now that Homura had been killed, some ninjas from these families felt how a long-contained rage had finally dissipated from deep within their hearts.

It was a feeling of release.

"Luo Lei-sama, isn't this perhaps too extreme?!"

The Konoha army was also stunned for a moment.

It seemed that they never imagined that even the ruthless Luo Lei they had seen on the battlefield would maintain that same cruelty after returning to the village. The image of the "Superhero" was transforming into something that terrified them.

"..."

"I knew it... I knew something would go wrong."

Jiraiya and Minato exchanged looks. Both could see the deep bitterness and helplessness in the other's eyes.

There was a shared sadness, as if the dream of a united Konoha was breaking apart before them.

During the journey back, they had felt a constant unease, as if something terrible was about to happen. And now, it all made sense. Luo Lei had killed a council member as soon as he arrived at the village, without remorse.

If it weren't for Luo Lei's overwhelming power, Jiraiya and Minato would have already tried to stop him.

"....."

Shikaku, Inoichi, and other army leaders lowered their heads cautiously. They knew that, at this moment, any intervention could be fatal. They couldn't risk provoking Luo Lei.

'So... he really killed him!'

Among all those present, perhaps the only one mentally prepared was Tsunade.

But even in her heart, there was a storm she couldn't calm. After learning what had happened to the Senju clan, it would be a lie to say she wasn't furious. Now, seeing Homura's death, a part of her felt relieved; a part of her soul felt satisfied.

Looking at Luo Lei, she found a satisfaction she didn't expect to feel.

"All right, the control is perfect..."

At that moment, Luo Lei didn't care what was happening around him. He observed Homura's lifeless body and nodded in great satisfaction, as if he had achieved an important goal.

With the current power of his heat vision, if he hadn't completely controlled the energy, he wouldn't have just destroyed Homura's head; he could have split all of Konoha in two.

That's why he controlled it, making sure the hot blood splattered on Hiruzen and the other council members, so that it would be even more impactful.

"In the name of the Hokage, I declare that Homura Mitokado not only colluded with Sunagakure to sell information about me, but he was also corrupt, accepting bribes, abusing his power, and colluding with Sunagakure, Kumogakure, Iwagakure, and Kirigakure, thereby harming the interests of the Village of Konoha!"

The next moment, Luo Lei's expression turned completely cold, and his eyes fixed on Hiruzen with an intensity that seemed to pierce through him as he spoke in a tone charged with defiance and arrogance:

"Tell me, Hokage-sama... did I do well?!"
