Chapter 376
Haruto Saito was the most talked-about ninja in the entire shinobi world!
Ever since news of his departure from Konoha spread, he had been the center of attention! He was worth billions in ryo, and the sheer amount of cash he controlled was enough to influence—perhaps even change—the course of the ongoing Shinobi War if it were to be used on the battlefield.
Many people wanted him dead!
Some were old enemies, while others were mercenary ninjas willing to kill for money.
This time, the rumor that Haruto Saito had slain Hattori Ryuya sent shockwaves through the entire ninja world! Every major power in the shinobi world turned their focus on Haruto Saito once again, elevating their level of concern regarding his existence to an entirely new level!
Even the villages that had no grudges against him—Sand, Stone, and Cloud—began to pay much closer attention to him and even made special arrangements in response to his actions.
However, there was no concrete evidence confirming that Hattori Ryuya had indeed died at Haruto Saito's hands!
When Haruto Saito killed Hattori Ryuya, no one else was present!
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist could only testify that Hattori Ryuya had been lured away by Haruto Saito before disappearing. Meanwhile, Kirigakure could confirm that Hattori Ryuya was dead, but... did he really die by Haruto Saito's hand?
How could Haruto Saito possibly have that kind of strength?!
Even if he had mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, it was a teleportation jutsu, not a direct combat technique!
