With Konoha's alert level raised to its highest and villagers almost being herded into evacuation shelters, the instigator, Gensou, was in no hurry to leave.

After securing a large pile of scrolls sealed with spoils of war, he disguised himself to avoid unnecessary trouble. Walking through the chaotic streets, he purposefully made his way to the Hokage's office.

Due to the incident with the Root, the village's defense needed a lot of manpower, causing the originally heavily guarded Hokage building to lower its protection levels.

Gensou easily bypassed both the visible and hidden lines of defense around the Hokage building, entering this place that represented the highest authority in Konoha.

It was already night.

With the Hokage, the Fifth, absent, the Hokage building was pitch black inside.

Following the intel obtained from the information found in the Root, Gensou quietly approached a secret room with a sealing barrier.

Noticing the two Anbu guarding the door and the hidden sentries in the shadows, Gensou knew he had found the right place.

Moments later, there was a faint sound of bodies hitting the ground.

Holding the last conscious but powerless Anbu, Gensou locked eyes with him, swiftly using his eye technique to invade the ninja's brain and search for the relevant information.

"Oh? The memory related to this secret room has been sealed."

Gensou was a bit surprised.

But he didn't mind.

Given the vast difference in strength and the high concealment of the eye technique from Hanare when extracting memories, the relevant memories still opened up to him quickly.

After discarding the now-useless Anbu, Gensou began forming hand seals in front of the secret room's door.

Moments later, the sealing barrier on the door dissipated.

The door opened.

Before him was a room where the floor, walls, and even the ceiling were covered with intricate sealing techniques. In the center stood a lone stone platform.

Gensou's gaze fell on the large scroll placed on the stone platform.

This was his target.

The famous Scroll of Seals of Konoha.

After resolving the issues with his body, Gensou turned his attention to his soul.

This was one of the reasons he came to Konoha.

According to his plan, the Reanimation Jutsu and the Dead Demon Consuming Seal recorded

in the Scroll of Seals would greatly aid him in restoring his soul.

Thus, before leaving, he specifically came to the Hokage's office.

Just as he was about to reach for the Scroll of Seals, he paused.

"This is... a high-level sealing technique from the Uzumaki Clan."

Looking again at the densely packed sealing techniques on the walls, floor, and ceiling, Gensou, though not deeply versed in sealing techniques, could tell that these seals were all connected to the stone platform.

More precisely, to the Scroll of Seals on the stone platform.

If he were to touch the Scroll of Seals without following the proper procedure, not only would the book itself be instantly incinerated, but the room would also be set ablaze, destroying anyone inside.

"As expected, if it were that easy to take the Scroll of Seals, filled with Konoha's forbidden techniques, such techniques would have already spread across the ninja world."

The fact that Naruto, who hadn't even graduated from the ninja academy, could sneak into the Hokage building and easily take the Scroll of Seals was a special case that wasn't worth comparing.

Gensou pondered the sealing techniques in the secret room.

The guards outside didn't know the solution.

Only the Hokage knew the solution.

With Tsunade currently out of the village, Gensou couldn't ask her even if he wanted to.

"This is troublesome."

The Uzumaki Clan's sealing techniques were renowned in the ninja world for a reason; they had their unique strengths.

Gensou didn't think he could unravel them in a short time.

Just then, a familiar "ding" sound echoed in his mind.

Gensou was surprised and immediately focused.

Ding!

Side Mission: The True Graduation Test of Uzumaki Naruto

Mission Description: The only student in the class who hasn't graduated, Uzumaki Naruto, is feeling very down. The host notices Mizuki approaching Naruto and whispering something, making Naruto excited. The host realizes the plot has officially begun. This is a good opportunity. The host can seize the moment, join in, and defeat the scheming Mizuki alongside Naruto.

Mission Reward: Ten seconds to read the Scroll of Seals (The Third Hokage is watching you; ten seconds is the maximum he will allow).

"This mission is quite interesting."

Without hesitation, Gensou accepted.

"Defeating Mizuki is easy; he's likely imprisoned in Konoha's high-security prison now. But how will I get the Scroll of Seals? Will it just appear? The Third is long dead, so his watchful

gaze shouldn't matter."

Looking at the Scroll of Seals in front of him, Gensou stroked his chin, pondering.

Regardless, it was a stroke of luck that the system had once again provided a solution.

With each completed mission, although the system's progress was far from reaching his true

capabilities, it occasionally provided some surprising rewards.

"Gradually, the system is no longer the useless system it once was."

Gensou mused, feeling a mix of emotions.

Finally, he took one last look at the Sealed Book, suspecting it might be related to the

system's reward.

To be safe, he decided not to touch it and even helped close the door before leaving.

Five minutes later, noticing a lack of response on the radio, Konoha's ninjas quickly arrived at

the secret room.

"Oh no! The Scroll of Seals!"Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Seeing their fallen comrades, some rushed to help, while others opened the barrierless door,

anxiously peering inside.

To their surprise...

The Sealed Book was still there, intact.

The sealing techniques in the room remained untouched.

Relieved, the Konoha ninjas couldn't help but speculate.

"Did the intruder give up, knowing the purpose of these seals?"

"Could the person who infiltrated the Scroll of Seals room be the same one who caused the

incident with the Root?"

"Very likely! Report this immediately!"
