Chapter 30: New Anomaly: The Red Sea Object

After the containment operation concluded, the light screens before everyone dimmed.

For some time afterward, discussions about the recently appeared Possession Mask remained the top headline across the ninja world.

"It must be said that the danger posed by this Possession Mask is truly immense."

"Indeed, a terrifying entity capable of using every ninjutsu technique; if left unchecked, it would likely destroy the entire ninja world."

"Tell me, why was no one from the Anomaly Containment Facility tempted when facing the Possession Mask?"

"That's obviously because they are formidable; what other reason could there be?"

While common folk debated, factions throughout the ninja world intensified their efforts to locate the Anomaly Containment Facility.

Their goal was not to eliminate the facility, but solely to establish cooperation with them.

Of course, they lacked the power to destroy the containment facility.

Meanwhile, another momentous event unfolded within the ninja world.

The Third Hokage of Konoha was killed by Orochimaru, and Tsunade succeeded him as Hokage of Konoha.
