Chapter 354: White Fang's Suicide, Rewinding for White Fang
The Land of Grass Daimyo looked grim; he didn't see his eldest son's banner.
As Hatake Sakumo and the others approached, the Daimyo saw the servants wearing makeshift mourning clothes. His gaze flared with anger before he suppressed his hatred, forcing his eyes back to a calm stare.
In front of the Hidden Leaf Village's experts, a Daimyo like him had no right to lose his temper.
He could only find a way to contact the Hidden Stone Village and ask for their protection for himself and his clan.
"Daimyo," Shimura Koko said. "The First Prince was tragically killed in the Iwa Ninja's charge. Not even Konoha's White Fang could save him."
Observing the Daimyo's suppressed anger, Shimura Koko thought, 'Clan Head Danzo's arrangement is truly flawless.'
This way, the blame for losing the Land of Grass's mission quota would fall squarely on Konoha's White Fang.
No one would pay attention to the deaths of three consecutive guardian ninja captains from the Shimura Clan.
The Daimyo said nothing, simply waving for two tribal chiefs to follow him.
