This silver-haired figure nodded heavily when he heard the leader's words, and responded Responded with those obviously childish words, "Yes, I understand!"
"Well, as long as you understand, this is an order personally issued by Lord Danzo. As long as you can complete it smoothly, Lord Danzo can truly recognize all your previous achievements, and your request can be realized!"
The leading Root member looked straight at the silver-haired short figure through the exposed pupils of the mask. When these words that seemed to be extremely tempting fell, it was obvious that the silver-haired figure could not help but tremble slightly.
Even through the mask, this seemed to be a hint of surprise that could be sensed.
"Yes! Tiger understands!"
The response this time was more sonorous and powerful than the previous sentence.
This silver-haired man is none other than Shōji, who admires Shōji very much. Under Orochimaru's most trusted confidant in Original Work, Yakushi Kabuto, who has outstanding talent and talent, is just like Original Work whom Shōji knows. The plot of is average. Yakushi Kabuto, who has been arranged by Danzo to perform espionage missions around the world, has suffered a lot in these years, but even if his heart occasionally wavers, he will grit his teeth and persevere in the end, not for anything else, just because Yakushi Kabuto still has light and warmth in his heart!
This light and warmth is exactly what the orphanage headed by Yakushi Nonō places its trust in. It is for this that Yakushi Kabuto has been forcing himself to persevere, and now it is finally possible to usher in the real dawn!
Yakushi Kabuto naturally couldn't hide the excitement in his heart.
It's just that Yakushi Kabuto, who is only 12 years old at this moment, doesn't realize that this is not Danzo's kindness, but another dark move by Danzo!
At this time, Yakushi Kabuto was still imagining the future where he could finally return to his companions in the orphanage and live with the director who was as close as mother and son again, which strengthened his heart.
'This mission must not fail! '
Yakushi Kabuto Clenched his hands slightly hard!
He has been persevering and working hard for several years, and he must complete this last mission with the most perfect attitude!
'Although I don't know who you are, for the sake of the dean, for Urushi and the others, I'm sorry, I must kill you! '
Looking at Yakushi Kabuto like this, one can clearly sense a hint of determination.
The pupil hidden under the mask of the leading Root member also revealed a different kind of light. As one of Danzo's most trusted subordinates, he naturally knew what his master Danzo's intention was, but this was not the first time he had seen such a scene, since he joined Root ten years ago.
His heart has long been dark and dirty just like Root, but he is also very firm in his belief. All this is for Lord Danzo, and everything is for the future of Konoha!
'So this is your only result, Yakushi Nonō, Yakushi Kabuto! '
The leader glanced coldly at Yakushi Kabuto in front of him with extremely cryptic eyes, and then seemed to inadvertently move to the other subordinates standing aside.
Those Root people also nodded slightly.
"Then, come out!"
"Yes!"
After all, we have already entered the inner hinterland of Land of Earth. Every action needs to be handled with the most caution. Not to mention that there are dozens or even hundreds of Iwagakure Ninja chasing behind Yakushi Nonō. Just alone Iwagakure The reconnaissance strongholds set up in various areas of Land of Earth are areas that the imperial ninjas who sneak in must avoid first. Not to mention that these strongholds are at least two to three Chunin-level teams stationed!
Even if they can be eliminated, it is easy to expose the location coordinates of their group. This is the most stupid behavior. Once they are surrounded by a large number of Iwagakure Ninja, they will not only be unable to complete the task, but will also lose their lives.
Therefore, they must avoid these strongholds one by one. If possible, the leader of Root even hopes not to face the Iwagakure Ninja pursuing troops. In this way, he can further ensure that Yakushi Kabuto will kill Yakushi Nonō 100% with his own hands. This is the situation that his master Danzo wants to see most.
The death of Nonō alone can only be regarded as the minimum goal.
As the leader of the Root team was marching, he was secretly thinking about how he should guide the situation perfectly after meeting Nonō later, so that Nonō could enter Yakushi Kabuto's ambush without any warning. In the killing position, as long as the two of them started fighting, the mission objective would be initially completed. After all, Yakushi Kabuto was dressed as Kumo Ninja at the moment. He only needed to create an opportunity to prevent Yakushi Kabuto from noticing Nonō's identity.
All this can go on as a matter of course!
The only thing you need to worry about is that the pursuers on Iwagakure Ninja's side are likely to do bad things.
However, at this point, the team leader had to admit that Yakushi Nonō was worthy of being the high-level spy valued by his master Danzo. The choice of path and some inducement arrangements were perfect.
'If everything goes as expected, the current Iwagakure Ninja pursuers should still be at a certain distance from Nonō. In this case, the time difference should be enough! '
This Root leader looked through the holes in the mask, and at this moment, a gleam of grimness appeared in the depths of his dark eyes.
You must complete Lord Danzo's orders 100%!
This is the consensus of almost all members of Root!
Regardless of whether these people are willing to do this or are forced to do so, the reality is before them. These Root people will not and cannot refuse or have the ability to change this situation. It can be said that their fate has been decided from the moment they enter Root!
'Yes, here it is! '
The most important first step is to separate Yakushi Kabuto first. He needs to meet Nonō in advance so that a time difference can be created.
After advancing a certain distance and further confirming the converging information.
The leader of the team, Root, showed a hint of joy.
"Tiger, go to the west with Yu and others. Iwagakure Ninja's pursuit force has appeared here. Let's intercept it. You must keep your mission in mind. Yu will create opportunities for you. Remember, you will kill with one strike! Do you understand?"
The Root team leader looked at Yakushi Kabuto and said very coldly.
"Yes, Tiger understands!"
Yakushi Kabuto responded Responded with the same serious expression.
The team leader nodded with satisfaction, and then his eyes turned to the Root member codenamed 'Resentment'.
"Qian, that side is left to you. Everything will be executed according to the established plan! We must execute that guy smoothly!"
These are profound words.
This person in this team, whose strength is second only to that of the leader, is also a Root member with ordinary Jōnin standards. He also nodded heavily and responded Responded: "Yes, I understand!"
This not only refers to creating a situation where Yakushi Kabuto must kill Nonō, but also specifically explains the order to deal with the two of them together at the necessary moment. Nonō Needless to say, they know this former very well The personal strength of Root's teammates is only at the Elite Chūnin level, but he still prefers Medical Ninja. Yakushi Kabuto does have great potential, but at only 12 years old, his personal strength is at the Chunin level.
One person is enough to take care of Yakushi Kabuto and Yakushi Nonō!
"Then! Dismiss!"
Under the command of this leader.
The group of nine people was also divided into two parts and rushed towards two different directions.
It's just that these nine people, including the leader Root who was obviously stronger than the average Jōnin, didn't notice that there was a bright eye staring at the nine of them in the shadow somewhere above.
The owner of this pair of bright pupils is Uchiha Shōji.
After reaching an agreement with Nonō, the two of them planned how to guide the people of Root to enter the designated position. This was a bit troublesome, but the actual operation was also very simple. In short, it was to make the opponent feel that everything was still under their control, and there was no need to be too vigilant.
In fact, these Root people were indeed very cautious. They not only repeatedly confirmed whether the information left by Nonō was correct, but also further searched the surrounding intelligence in order to prevent a worse situation from happening.
It can be said that these Root members are indeed elites. If the pursuit force led by Ogata is indeed nearby, it will be really difficult to hide from these Root people. Perception and exploration, but unfortunately Ogata and other Iwagakure Ninjas, under the orders of Shōji, took on an umbrella-shaped posture, surrounding the farther outer edge geographical location.
Such a distance and angle can ensure that while rushing to rescue in the shortest time, it can also avoid problems discovered by these Root elites. Of course, there is a premise here that there must be someone who can sneak into the core area and command from the center, so that there will be no chaos. Shōji is such an existence.
To put it bluntly, if Shōji can be easily detected by these Root people, then they can really be killed with a piece of tofu!
'Sure enough, Yakushi Kabuto is still here. In this case, the script can continue to be performed according to the original model, but this time the director has to change the final result! '
Although it is not 100% certain, in such a timeline and special location, a short, silver-haired man who is obviously only eleven or twelve years old appears in Root's response team, and his identity can almost be locked!
And as long as Yakushi Kabuto can be present.
Shōji can be 100% sure that Danzo's intention is still the same as that in Original Work. It can be said that this is the development that Shōji likes to see the most, because only if Danzo is as stupid as Original Work, he has the possibility to intervene.
'This time I want to thank you, Shimura Danzō, these accounts won't take long, I will definitely settle them with you! '
The abominable face of Shimura Danzō flashed in the depths of Shōji's brain. After a cold smile, he also straightened up and submerged into the dark shadow again.
They didn't even know that all of them were being monitored by others, and that they were a powerful enemy that could easily destroy them with just one finger. Everyone in this group of Root still followed the established plan and started taking action. Yu and two other Root elites took Kabuto to an area on the left to find a suitable ambush location.
The Root leader of this trip took the remaining four Root elites along the traces left by Nonō. It only took more than ten minutes to arrive at a relatively open area.
A graceful figure comes into view here.
The leader's eyes were also focused, and his muscles all over his body were subconsciously tense, and the four Root members behind him were also on alert.
After further sensing and exploration, it was confirmed that there were indeed no other figures or traces around, and then these people stepped forward and came to Nonō with an indifferent expression.
"Miko, how is the situation?"
First, he asked the four subordinates to spread out and be on guard, and then he moved forward alone, walked up to Nonō, shouted the code name of Nonō, and said in a slightly cold tone.
"Everything is going well. The pursuers are still nearly an hour away from here, and I have also set up corresponding obstacles. As long as we move faster, they will not be able to catch up. I have also brought back all the necessary information and can go back to the village directly! But I did not expect that Lord Danzo would actually send you to pick me up, Jiu!"
Nonō responded to Responded with the same cold words as before.
Although only Danzo has the right to know the identities of all the members of Root, some people have been partners with each other for a little longer and it is easy to know each other's identities. Even though the team leader has covered up almost all his facial features, this familiar voice is enough for Nonō to identify the person's identity. They are originally teammates who have performed many missions together in Root!
The familiarity with some small details is far beyond ordinary people.
Nonō was naturally able to recognize the identity of the team leader immediately, and the more so, the more nervous Nonō felt, because she was more knowledgeable than anyone else. It must be understood that this Root person code-named "Jiu" is one of Danzo's most trusted subordinates and one of the most powerful people in Root!
Although it is said that the stronger the person sent to take care of her, the happier she should be, but the words Shōji said before had obviously touched Nonō's heart, making her have to think about some very dangerous contents at this moment!
However, the leader of Root on the opposite side, Jiu, had no idea. From his perspective, Nonō had successfully completed the mission, and now he was "alone" meeting them here!
This is Jiu's full confidence in his own strength!
Although he is not the most orthodox ninja with strong perception ability, he does have a special ability that can detect the surrounding situation in detail for him. Jiu is very confident that few people above Shinobi World can avoid his detection!
He really didn't believe it, there would be those people here!
Therefore, at this moment, Jiu felt a little more relaxed. As long as he could be sure that Iwagakure Ninja's pursuers were not close, his plan could be carried out smoothly. The worst situation would be that Yakushi Kabuto and Yakushi Nonō would recognize each other, and that would mean Jiu would command his subordinates to kill them directly!
Even if this is not the result that Mr. Danzo wants to see the most, it can be regarded as fulfilling the bottom line requirement!
No matter how strong Yakushi Kabuto and Yakushi Nonō are, it is impossible to escape from the encirclement and suppression of these people!
"This is how much Master Danzo values you. Now that the mission is completed, let's go back directly. Don't drag your feet here. Wearing this set of clothes and masks, the pursuers may not be able to catch up, but there is Iwagakure Ninja's stronghold ahead. When necessary, you can confuse your sight and let us cover your retreat!"
Although Yakushi Nonō had been deceived by Danzo in advance, and there was a high probability that he would not be able to recognize the grown-up Yakushi Kabuto, let alone the Yakushi Kabuto who followed him still dressed as Kumo Ninja, the problem was that Yakushi Kabuto could not be recognized as Nonō.
Only in this way can we successfully complete the task required by Lord Danzo to let Yakushi Kabuto kill Nonō!
However, Jiu's move once again aroused the vigilance deep in Nonō's heart. This seemingly reasonable arrangement actually revealed a hint of unreasonable and even dangerous atmosphere.
But at this moment, Nonō was still tightening her heartstrings. She was unwilling to give up her previous belief until the last moment!
To put it bluntly, even if Danzo really wants to kill her here, as long as Yakushi Kabuto and other children in the orphanage can grow up smoothly and healthily, Nonō will be willing to do so, but she also knows very well that if Danzo is really so cruel, she will not be able to believe that result.
It sounds contradictory, but that's actually the case.
'I hope it doesn't end badly like that! pocket! '
Nonō While taking the set of clothes from Jiu and putting them on, the face of the child he was most worried about flashed through his mind.
"Very good! Let's set off then! We will further induce the pursuers from behind, Black Silver, you will be the one to protect the witch and evacuate first!"
It was obviously a very reasonable arrangement, but there was also a faint sense of ominousness.
Nonō As he took a deep breath, his peripheral vision seemed to glance at a shadowed position on the left, and there was a ray of coldness revealed under the mask he was wearing.
"Yes!"
After synchronous response.
"Whoosh"
"Whoosh!"
Those were the two people who refracted away in advance.
Jiu looked at the departing figure of Nonō with deep eyes, then turned to the remaining three subordinates and said, "Expand the scope of the investigation, pay attention, and be sure to completely block the pursuit of Iwagakure Ninja, do you understand!?"
An hour's journey is enough to do a lot of things, but you can't relax because of it. This time difference can be easily made up. This is within the territory of Land of Earth, which is less than ten hours away from Iwagakure!
Jiu doesn't want any accidents to happen!
Not to mention that the manpower arranged on that side is enough to easily handle Nonō and Kabuto. If there is any accident, he can rush there in the shortest time. Eliminating the influence of other external factors as much as possible is the most important point at the moment.
"Yes!"
The three Root members also bowed their heads in response, and then left the place in a flash. Jiu also swerved and left here, and as he was hiding, tiny black spots that almost 99% of ninjas could not detect also flew out from his body and quickly scattered in the forest!
'Is it originally from this clan? That does seem to be a source of confidence, but it's just that! '
Shōji in the shadow could clearly see those 'little black dots'. It was also at this moment that Shōji was able to determine the identity of the leader Root, codenamed Jiu. Who is his identity? There is no doubt that this is the Jōnin of Konohagakure who is only under the Aburame Clan and Uchiha and Hyūga!
The surging fluctuations of Chakra!
There are also these Parasitic Worms, which are only at the nanometer level, which can be said to be the nightmare of most ninjas. These are the two major insect control Ninja Clan along with the Kamizuru Clan in Iwagakure. Nowadays, the upper-class water clan is gradually declining., Aburame Clan is getting stronger and stronger. There are many clansmen with outstanding strength in the clan. It is really embarrassing to talk about Kage Level, but the top ones can be regarded as the level between Elite Jōnin to Quasi-Kage!
Shōji When facing these people, you need to pay attention to something. It is impossible to overturn the car, but if you are not cautious enough, you may still be injured!
'I just don't know which Aburame among Original Work is this guy? Or maybe it never appeared in Original Work at all? Well, forget it, these are not important, let's deal with that side first. This old man Aburame Clan will take care of you later! '
A faint cold light flashed out of Shōji's bright pupils, and he straightened up and followed Nonō towards the position where he left. If it were slower and allowed Nonō and Kabuto to fuck directly, that would be a big problem!
Three-way meeting.
This is a special exchange.
When Shōji was just following Nonō, there was another person named Root who walked through the forest and entered a trough.
"Huh? Ambushing here? I thought the location would be further away!"
Different from Nonō.
Shōji These are the other three auras that can be clearly detected, and a strong evil aura is also revealed between the eyebrows!
Look at the location below.
"Whoosh"
"Whoosh"
"Whoosh!"
Three figures appear from the front.
The positions are deliberately branched and intertwined.
"I haven't moved my body recently, and I'm a little rusty. Let me operate on you first!"
Shōji's eyes revealed a hint of cold murderous intent.
"Boom!"
It was also an extremely terrifying Chakra wave that burst out!
Then there were varying degrees of shock among the people below who had just fought.
At this moment!
Come out with fierce pressure!!
