Senju Tobirama shook his head, "I have no clue!"
Ke Yan looked at his hesitant expression and suddenly became interested and said with a smile.
"Tell me in detail!"
Senju Tobirama took a deep breath, sorted out his thoughts for a while, then gestured with his hands to show the general direction of the patrol route, and said.
"I checked the border patrol records and found that the patrol routes of the border ninjas who participated in the battle in the days before the battle were different from usual."
"They seemed to be deliberately avoiding areas where we suspected enemies might be infiltrating."
"But I can't figure out why!"
Faced with Senju Tobirama's doubts, Yan's fingers tapped lightly on the table, making a rhythmic "dong dong" sound, and his eyes became deep.
There is a reason for his doubt.
Nowadays, a large part of Konoha's overall economy is leaning towards working ninjas.
This also resulted in Konoha Ninja's life being very comfortable, many times better than other ninja villages.
In the past few years, many spies from other Ninja Villages have even given up their own Ninja Villages and chosen to join Konoha because of Konoha's generous treatment.
When Yan thought of this, he raised his head, looked at Senju Tobirama, and asked.
"Is it possible that they discovered something unusual but didn't want to alert the enemy, so they changed the patrol route?"
But Senju Tobirama shook his head firmly, with a hint of determination in his eyes, "This possibility is very small."
"If they discover an abnormality, they should report it to their superiors in time instead of changing the patrol route without authorization."
"Furthermore, judging from their performance in the battle, their cooperation is a bit rusty and they don't look like strictly trained border guards."
Yan's eyes narrowed, "So you suspect that they have been replaced?"
Senju Tobirama nodded and paced back and forth in the office.
"That's right!"
"But if that's the case, how did they pass the identity verification?"
"There are no people with exactly the same chakra fluctuations in the world, let alone so many!"
The sunlight shines on the ground through the windows, forming patches of light.
Yan sat behind his desk, frowning slightly.
He did think of a possibility.
White Zetsu.
But can White Zetsu really do something like simulating chakra fluctuations?
But if it's really them, then things really can't be too casual.
Yan was thinking deeply with his eyes as he tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and the "dong-dong" sound was particularly clear in the quiet office.
After a long time, he slowly stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the Konoha street.
The sun shone on him, outlining his resolute outline. Then he took a deep breath and turned to face Senju Tobirama.
"Second generation, this matter must be investigated as soon as possible."
"To strengthen border monitoring, we must not only increase the number of patrols, but also increase the frequency of patrols."
"At the same time, conduct a comprehensive and rigorous review of all Border Ninjas, including their backgrounds, recent activities, and interactions with others."
"And send the village ninjas to the border, replace some of the border ninjas, and let them return to the village."
"..."
Senju Tobirama listened carefully to Yan's instructions, and then bowed slightly.
"Okay, I will immediately arrange for Anbu to perform these tasks and ensure that no suspicious details are missed."
Yan nodded and continued, "During the review process, if any ninja's behavior or speech is found to be abnormal, he will be immediately isolated and conducted an in-depth investigation."
"In addition, notify all ninjas in Konoha to be more vigilant and pay attention to whether there are suspicious people or signs around you."
Senju Tobirama nodded again, "Understood."
Yan returned to his desk and sat down, picked up a file on the desk, took a look at it, put it down, and continued to talk to Senju Tobirama.
"Also, some projects at the research institute must also be accelerated."
"I am going to conduct a comprehensive inspection and upgrade of Konoha's defense system."
Senju Tobirama replied, "Don't worry, Orochimaru and I are watching over there at the institute. Uchiha Itachi and Yakushi Kabuto are now also excellent researchers."
"The progress of many projects is already accelerating!"
Yan nodded with satisfaction and waved to Senju Tobirama.
"Then go and don't forget to take away the things Might Guy and Fugaku brought back with them!"
Senju Tobirama nodded, packed up the items on the table, quickly turned around and left the Hokage's office, and quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor.
The sunlight at dusk is like a golden thread, passing through the gaps between the dense leaves of Konoha and shining in every corner of the village, bringing the vitality of a new day to the village.
The streets are filled with fresh air, mixed with the aroma of flowers and plants and the smell of breakfast fireworks.
After Might Guy and Rock Lee left the Hokage's office, they did not immediately return to their respective residences. Instead, they walked toward Training Ground outside the village in tacit agreement.
Arriving at Training Ground, Might Guy looked at Rock Lee, with seriousness and expectation in their eyes.
"Rock Lee, although we did not bring back complete clues about Crystal Ball this time, we cannot slack off. We must continue to train and improve our strength."
Rock Lee nodded vigorously, his eyes full of firm determination.
"Yes, teacher!"
Might Guy The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, revealing his iconic big white teeth.
"Today we are going to do a handstand and run around Konoha 20 times. This is a test of your physical fitness and willpower."
It's not that he doesn't want to run around Konoha a hundred or two hundred times like he did before.
It's just that the current Konoha is really too big, and it's still expanding. It really wants to be like before.
He couldn't finish running while standing on his head for three days, and he still had a mission to leave the village tomorrow.
Faced with Might Guy's training requirements, Rock Lee immediately stood on his head with both hands on the ground without any hesitation.
In the past few years that Ninja World has been traveling, they have maintained high-intensity training.
No matter where you are, no matter what difficulties and challenges you face, you have never given up on improving your own strength.
In response, Might Guy quickly made the same move, his body as solid as steel.
"Let's go!" Might Guy shouted and took the lead in running upside down around Konoha.
Rock Lee followed closely behind, trying to keep up with the teacher's pace.
Their figures formed a unique scenery under the afterglow of the setting sun, attracting the attention of many villagers and ninjas.
Some children cheered them excitedly on the roadside.
As the number of laps increased, Rock Lee's arms began to feel sore, and sweat continued to fall from his forehead and drip on the ground.
But there was no hint of shrinking in his eyes, instead he became more determined.
As Might Guy ran, he observed the condition of Rock Lee. He was secretly pleased and encouraged Rock Lee at the same time.
"Rock Lee, hold on! This is the sweat of youth, this is the price of our growth!"
