<><><><><><>

For someone like Anrokuzan, Asahi had no desire to intervene. 

Although beating weak opponents was fun, what importance did it hold compared to studying the Dragon Vein and enhancing one's strength?

Moreover, Minato was there to observe Naruto's battle with Anrokuzan; what business was it of his to interfere? 

However, Asahi didn't want to deal with Anrokuzan, but Anrokuzan had different plans.

Amidst the ongoing battle where Naruto and his team are chased by Anrokuzan straight for the altar. 

Someone else arrived faster than Anrokuzan and they are all the surviving Roran residents gathered outside the altar.

Led by Queen Sara of Roran, the Roran citizens who first fled the battlefield arrived at the only safe place – the altar. Unfortunately, the switch outside the altar was damaged.

Looking at the nearby safe zone, Sara felt incredibly anxious. 

They were just one step away, yet they couldn't do anything about it. As Anrokuzan approached, Sara knew they had no hope left.

When Anrokuzan arrived, how many people here would still be alive? 

Sara, somewhat venting her frustration, used the chakra blade in her hand to chip away at the altar switch, futilely depleting her own stamina.

Asahi inside the altar observed all this. In such a situation, he couldn't focus on his training anymore. 

Asahi, with a correct set of principles, couldn't just stand by and watch people die.

Although Sara and the others wouldn't be in danger, their current emotional state was indeed pitiable. Opening his eyes, Asahi sighed deeply at the stone gate.

"Well, since you need hope, I'll give it to you. Consider it a little return for utilizing your Dragon Vein for my training!"

Sighing inwardly, Asahi stood up directly. Extending one hand, he lightly tapped the stone gate. 

A surge of chakra shot out from his fingertips. As this chakra entered the stone gate, the dormant gate slowly trembled. 

Meanwhile, Sara, who was venting her frustration outside the gate, also felt the gate shaking.

Her expression brightened as Sara, frequently visiting this place, naturally knew it was the situation before the stone gate opened. 

Could it be that she accidentally made the mechanism work properly just now?

Sara's thought flashed by, but her attention was quickly drawn to the opening gate. Unlike before, this time, Sara's eyes were filled with hope.

The opening of the stone gate represented the determination of a queen, symbolizing hope for the people of Roran. 

As the stone gate slowly opened, the figures of Asahi and his group also entered Sara's sight.

Asahi and his team, she had seen before. Although they hadn't communicated, Sara knew they were allies, part of Naruto's team.

At the same time, Sara also understood that what happened just now wasn't her accidentally triggering the switch. 

It was these people in front of her intentionally helping them.

Hastily ushering everyone into the interior of the altar, Sara rushed to Asahi's side and deeply bowed. "Thank you very much for helping us. I am truly grateful."

Sara said sincerely, not knowing how to express her gratitude for this life-saving favor. Any words seemed somewhat powerless. 

Unable to figure out what to say, Sara kept expressing her thanks.

However, Asahi didn't accept her bow. Because he knew Sara and the others weren't in danger. 

He merely offered them a hope to survive. So, he couldn't bear the gratitude Sara expressed.

Initially, Asahi could have stopped Sara's bow, but he knew that if he did, it would make Sara even more burdened. 

"Hurry and get up; I've just provided you with some comfort." Asahi lifted Sara and explained to her. Asahi actually had a good impression of Sara.

After all, in Asahi's eyes, Sara was just a naive girl. 

Despite being the queen of Roran and bearing heavy responsibilities, she had lived in a false, perfect world due to her mother's affection in her childhood and Anrokuzan deception in her youth.

Although reality wasn't beautiful, in the false world painted by Anrokuzan, she had always been a successful queen. 

This greatly preserved her innocence.

However, in such a short time, such a person could make such a significant change. 

This wasn't only because of the responsibilities she carried, but her inherent qualities were also indispensable.

"Regardless, I sincerely thank you!" Although Asahi explained, Sara wasn't ready to believe it. 

Saying this, Sara was preparing to bow in gratitude, but this time, Asahi stopped her.

Expressions of gratitude become tiresome after a while. If Sara kept thanking them endlessly, Asahi feared it might never end.

"Alright, think whatever you want." Asahi, feeling helpless, rubbed his forehead. 

This matter was truly inexplicable. If explained, it might damage Naruto's image.

During the conversation between Asahi and Sara, all the residents of Roran had already entered the altar. 

Of course, the quick entrance was also related to the guidance of Asahi, Yugito, Shisui and Sakumo.

At this moment, the residents of Roran were secretly sizing up Asahi. 

Although Sara had seen Asahi and knew he was with Naruto's team, these ordinary residents didn't know.

They were curious about this man who made their queen so grateful. 

They had heard Asahi and Sara's conversation just now, and they understood that this man was their lifesaver. 

Therefore, their eyes on Asahi were filled with gratitude.

Simultaneously, as the residents of Roran secretly observed Asahi, Asahi had already stored information about these Roran residents in his mind. 

Looking at these curious residents, Asahi couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Even though Roran was just a small country in the ninja world, its population couldn't be lower than ten thousand. 

But now, only less than 500 residents of Roran were survive. 

One could imagine how many people Roran had lost. 

As Asahi predicted, the harsh reality was completely concealed beneath the veneer of a beautiful ending.
