Looking at the passage, Danzo's entire body went numb.
Isn't this Orochimaru's secret research base?
"Go in and investigate!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi took the lead, walking in first.
Danzo could only brace himself and follow.
As Orochimaru's collaborator, Danzo knew very well that this explosion had nothing to do with Orochimaru.
But the problem was, the secret laboratory had been exposed.
As the two powerful figures entered the passage, ninjas from several other clans followed.
After passing through the long passage, the group stopped in front of a stone door.
Bang!
The stone door exploded, revealing a large cave.
"What is this?"
"Uchiha ninja corpses?"
"And infants?"
"There are even members of the Senju clan..."
Everyone was stunned.
Inside the cave were more than a dozen corpses, including those of Uchiha and Senju clan ninjas.
Stomp!
Fugaku Uchiha stepped forward and rushed to the corpse of his clan.
"It's Uchiha Aki!"
"He's been missing for a long time, and he was killed by someone from the village? And his eyes were gouged out..."
Muttering in anger, Fugaku Uchiha noticed a notebook on a pedestal.
Whoosh!
Almost at the same time, he and an Anbu member reached for the notebook.
"Get lost!"
Fugaku Uchiha roared, his eyes manifesting the Sharingan.
"Fugaku, don't be rash," Hiruzen Sarutobi warned.
"You dare use an Illusion Technique on an Anbu member?" Danzo shouted angrily.
Unfortunately.
They spoke too late.
The Anbu member's body stiffened, and he froze in place.
Ignoring everyone else, Fugaku Uchiha opened the notebook and saw the familiar handwriting.
"Orochimaru!!!"
Chapter 39: Orochimaru Escaped! A Glorious Undercover Mission!
In the courtyard.
Han Guang lay on a wooden chair, rolling over.
Then, he saw Obito and Kakashi squatting in front of him, staring intently at him.
"Holy crap!"
Startled, Han Guang almost slapped them.
"Are you two ghosts?"
He sat up irritably and yawned.
"You could still sleep?" Obito clicked his tongue in amazement.
"There was an earthquake just now, didn't you feel it?" Kakashi was also speechless.
Such a strong white light emanated from the back of the mountain, and the ground shook, yet Han Guang was still asleep?
"If you have something to say, say it quickly. If not, get out of my sight!"
Didn't he see that the sky was already darkening?
"There was a white light from the back of the mountain just now, like the sun. We went to take a look," Obito said, rubbing his hands.
"And there was a violent explosion," Kakashi added.
"That's it?"
Han Guang pouted and lay back down.
"Hey! Why are you lying down again?"
"As the captain of Team 9, I approve of you going," Han Guang waved his hand.
He wants me to go? No way.
Have you ever heard of a criminal returning to the scene of the crime and not getting caught?
Seeing Han Guang unmoved, Kakashi and Obito left, slipping away to the back mountain to check the situation.
The next day.
Under the scorching sun, Han Guang stretched.
He had slept all the way until noon.
Spirit: 640 (320 * 2) [Ultimate Immunity]
Glancing at his doubled stats for the day, Han Guang remained unfazed.
"From beginner immunity, to intermediate, advanced, super, and now ultimate!"
Honestly, he didn't know how high his Illusion Technique resistance was anymore.
After all, he hadn't tested it.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, Minato Namikaze appeared in the courtyard, his expression grave.
"Go to Training Ground 9 immediately."
With that, Minato Namikaze vanished.
Training Ground 9.
Chewing on a rice ball, Han Guang was, as expected, late again.
Minato Namikaze didn't say anything, but instead tossed him a scroll.
"Another mission?"
Han Guang, looking dejected, opened the scroll.
Kakashi and the others quietly gathered around to watch.
"Holy crap!"
That was Obito's voice.
"No way?" Kakashi couldn't believe it.
"How could this happen?" Rin covered her mouth in surprise.
"He defected? We lost our guard?" Han Guang was dumbfounded.
The scroll contained the news of Orochimaru's defection that morning. More importantly, upon hearing this, the Sand Ninja front-line forces had crossed the border and breached Konoha's defenses.
"Wait a minute, this news is from this morning, how did you know so quickly, Sensei?" Han Guang was a bit confused.
This news came too fast, didn't it?
"This isn't news I received; it was sent back by a Summoning Beast from the Forest of Death used by a front-line ninja," Minato Namikaze explained.
A Summoning Beast from the Forest of Death?
"So that's how it is!"
After all, once the Summoning Technique was released, the Summoning Beast would return directly to the Forest of Death.
This was equivalent to crossing space and returning to Konoha.
"Sensei, wasn't Orochimaru the commander-in-chief on the front lines? How could he have defected?" Han Guang asked again.
Hearing this question, Minato Namikaze shook his head, his expression filled with emotion.
"This has something to do with the back mountain."
