Upon hearing the explanation, Aburame Kaun, though she had never seen such an operation before.
But having read some books before, he easily understood how to play.
Perhaps they had been in silence all morning, rushing around.
Therefore, he was very talkative at this time.
After figuring out what had happened, he asked his two friends, "Where do you think we'll be assigned to if we go to the Front Line?"
"I heard from my family that the South and center areas are the most boring, with almost all you do every day is patrol."
"If we go over there, do you think those people who want the bounty will be able to follow us?"
This has been the main source of their income from spoils over the past year.
Almost all of them came for Uka's bounty.
At first, the Aburame Kaun disliked this situation.
Because he has to concentrate on these people every time they are on a mission and dare not be careless in the slightest.
But as he got used to that kind of life, he noticed the money that each visitor contributed.
He suddenly took a liking to these money-giving boys!
Hearing what his friend on the right said, and knowing what he was thinking, Uka Senju really didn't know what to say to him for a moment!
How much better it would be to have peace and stability!
It's best if they don't come!
How tough last year must have been!
However, upon further reflection, he thought about his current bounty.
He then abandoned the idea that those idiots wouldn't come.
The Clan also investigated, and he himself reflected on it.
But I just can't figure out who added another hundred million when my bounty had already been increased to one hundred million!
Yes, now the head of Uka Senju, this Special Jōnin gone.
It's already worth two hundred million on the black market!
In the Shinobi World, where S-rank missions start at one million, this is quite a sum.
That's an astronomical figure!
However, aside from missing-nin and wandering Ninja, they had no intention of touching the Five Great Nations or certain Clan.
This is why he, with a net worth of 200 million, dares to travel around like this!
On the left, perhaps one can sense Uka's thoughts.
Stepping on a tree root, Inuzuka Furin, who was being thrown forward, said with a hint of helplessness, " Kaun, why do you always think about this? Isn't it a good thing that no one is following us?"
"If we look at it from this perspective alone, the due South and the center are the most advantageous locations for us."
"Security patrols—this provides a perfect spot for us to thoroughly study Secret Technique or Ninjutsu."
"Woof woof woof!" The Brown and White dog following its owner also barked in agreement with its owner's opinion.
It's a good Ninja Dog that doesn't like fighting.
Wouldn't it be great to make money while easily basking in the sun?
Fighting is such a hassle!
Hearing his friend's words and the opposing Ninja Dog.
Thinking about who would be most affected by bounties, Aburame Kaun gave a somewhat awkward smile.
Because he was with this friend, he now had a bounty on him.
Compared to his teammate's two hundred million, his is really not much.
It's only around a million!
This significant disparity led to the choices made by the attackers in each instance of a sneak attack.
If one or two of them come, they'll almost certainly beat up Uka.
Only when a large team arrives will you and Furin be included on their list.
I felt frustrated by this situation back then.
In Uka's heart... tsk tsk.
He shook his head and didn't bring up the topic again, then obediently continued on his way.
Although I was somewhat speechless at my friend's restlessness, that was my friend's first question.
Because of her status, Uka Senju had seen a lot of information within the Clan, so she knew a thing or two.
Should we inform them now?
I thought about it for a moment and glanced at the time.
After using his senses to explore his surroundings, he turned and ran to the riverbank, Teuchi a wild animal that was drinking water.
He then gestured for them to stop and said, "It's almost noon, let's have a quick meal here before continuing our journey!"
"Okay!" After patting her somewhat empty stomach, Aburame Kaun took out a Kunai and took over the dirty and tiring work of dissecting and cleaning.
Upon hearing Uka's words, Inuzuka Furin took out a Scroll from her Ninja Tool Pouch at her waist.
With both hands moving in unison, they broke the seal, took out pots and pans, and began to set up a makeshift small kitchen!
Among the things Furin took out, she picked up a bucket, and Uka Senju also ran to the upstream point of the river to fill it with water.
The three divided the work, and about half an hour later...
They were eating roasted venison made with Chiharu's special seasoning.
Uka Senju then said to her two teammates, "I do know something about what Kaun asked earlier."
"Just letting you know in advance, so be prepared for a long battle once you get there."
"If you forget anything, be sure to get more when you arrive in Ihyo Castle."
I had just taken two bites of the fragrant venison when I suddenly heard what my friend said.
Aburame Kaun's brows furrowed instantly. "A long-term battle? Against whom?"
He had initially thought that leading a Clan independently at the beginning was to send them to the Front Line to experience another kind of Genin life.
Ultimately, he will revert to his mission-oriented Ninja form.
I never expected to hear this from Uka!
Is the battle with Sarutobi about to begin?
Nodding to confirm her friend's first question, Uka Senju then answered her friend's second question, "The first time should have been with Xiong's side."
"A protracted battle refers to more than just this."
"We just happened to be in the right place at the right time; the Clan's next moves will be significant."
"In addition to conflicts with external forces, conflicts with Sarutobi's side will also begin."
"That's why I'm giving you both this heads-up now; you must be prepared to be away for an extended period."
"This time, unlike last year when I could go back once a month!"
Hearing Uka's words, neither of them had any doubts.
After all, this friend was the Head of the Branch and the nephew of the current Senju clan leader.
When both are combined, the source and reliability of the information are far superior to theirs!
So it seems that this trip is definitely not an easy task.
I noticed that my two friends looked rather serious.
Uka Senju felt that she had achieved her goal of preparing the two of them.
At this point, we should loosen it a bit more.
Then he changed the subject with a smile and said, "Don't overthink it, we'll just be away for a long time."
"We might not even be fighting as many times as we did last year when we were away from home, with so many people around!"
Upon hearing Uka's words, Inuzuka Furin, who was eating a deer leg, couldn't help but smile slightly.
She doesn't mind being away from home for extended periods.
My parents are still very young and don't need me to accompany them.
As long as I'm with Uka, then being outside doesn't matter!
She laughed at Uka's second sentence.
Because she strongly agreed with Uka's statement.
In the past, when it was just the three of them out there, the bounty hunters would send them up in waves, usually once a day.
It's fair to say that once they leave the village, they never have a peaceful day!
However, they later formed Middle Unit or Large Unit with their clansmen.
Then most bounty hunters won't rush to their deaths like before!
So, is this another advantage of coming to the South Battlefield?
I understand what Uka means, and upon reflection, what she said makes sense.
Relaxing her brow and continuing to eat, Aburame Kaun suddenly remembered what her friend had mentioned about bears.
So he quickly asked, " Uka, you mean the first bear?"
Is it the country I'm thinking of?
"Should we fight?"
To what extent?
I nodded to confirm my friend's first three questions, and then thought about the extent of the problem.
Instead of answering, Uka Senju drew a coded message on the ground that only the three of them could understand!
Upon seeing the first sign, the two of them couldn't help but widen their eyes.
They all tried to figure out what was going on and what the situation was.
But considering that Uka informed me in this way...
And see those subsequent markers!
This made them both shut up and start talking about other things while eating the deer leg.
With nothing interesting to listen to, the Ninja Dog, Brown and White, who had been sitting between Furin and Uka, began to focus on dealing with the deer leg between its paws.
After taking a couple of bites, I probably felt a bit cold or for some other reason.
It carried the deer leg in its mouth and walked towards the fire, positioning itself where all three could see it!
Then it continued to hold the deer leg with its front paws and gnaw on it greedily.
Only its tail, constantly wagging left and right, front and back, suggests that it seems to be in a pretty good mood as it eats meat by the fire.
About two minutes passed.
The three people and one dog had eaten about half of the deer leg each!
Uka Senju, who was sitting by the fire chatting and laughing with her two teammates, suddenly stomped her foot.
Wood Release: Ten Thousand Forest Spears
"Puff puff puff!"
A series of seemingly incessant sounds of breaking ground quickly rang out from the three rest points.
As Uka stomped her foot, Aburame Kaun and Inuzuka Furin immediately released their deer legs and quickly formed hand seals.
The Ninja Dog Brown and White, jumped behind Kaun.
The three people and the dog quickly formed a triangle, placing the Aburame Kaun at the center.
Beast-Man Clone
The Ninja Dog, which had just jumped up, was transformed into its master's appearance by his Ninjutsu the moment it landed!
Secret Technique: Cocoon
Because of Uka's wide-range Ninjutsu and being protected by her companions in the center.
Aburame Kaun used this auxiliary Ninjutsu with complete confidence.
Three large black cocoons immediately appeared around him, fluctuating violently as Chakra was channeled into them.
When Uka Senju's unusual movements occurred.
In the forest, a middle-aged man dressed in Ninja Combat Uniform, with a scar across his headband made of Mizukage Forehead Protector, shouted as he Hand Seals, "Hide!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his body vanished, leaving only a Wooden Stake falling from the sky!
Upon hearing that a joint hunt had been launched against the strongest individual...
A hurried, somewhat broken voice suddenly rang out.
They made contact with a sudden fluctuation of Chakra and a popping sound coming from nearby.
The other eight figures that had been hiding in the woods and were getting closer immediately formed Hand Seals and used different methods to deal with the situation.
In an instant, the once quiet forest was filled with explosions, screams, and the sounds of Ninjutsu being activated.
He unleashed this massive Ninjutsu that forced everyone out, while his comrades prepared.
Standing up, Uka Senju immediately unleashed the next Ninjutsu.
Wood Release: Violent Spear Tree
If you are in a forest, then Wood Release Ninjutsu would be the optimal solution among all Ninjutsu.
Suddenly, he pulled his right hand back and struck out.
The Wood Release creation instantly appeared in his hand, transforming into a deep green light that shot towards the chosen target.
"Bang!"
A sound like a watermelon shattering rang out.
Having achieved his goal with a single strike, he immediately freed himself from the Wood Release artifact on his right hand, clasped his hands together, and released another great gift prepared for these bastards.
Wood Release: Thorn Brute Force
The entire forest erupted in excitement at his movement.
In an instant, countless plants sprouted from the earth.
While he was carrying out these actions.
Three large black cocoons broke apart.
Aburame Kaun immediately began to manipulate the large number of hatched Mole.
Secret Technique: Spindle Technique
Secret Technique: Insect Hurricane
He kept practicing these two techniques, which he was most proficient in and could release the fastest.
They tried to take advantage of the moment when the nine attackers were forced out of sight by Uka.
Transform the massive number of Mole around you into swarms of insects or black scythes.
Come and reap the lives of these invaders!
I saw both of my teammates unleashing Ninjutsu against the enemy.
After using the Four Legs Technique, Inuzuka Furin stopped using Ninjutsu.
Instead, he and the Brown and White Ninja Dog focused intently on guarding against the attackers, one in front and one behind.
In the forest, forced to use a substitute due to the sudden Wood Release Ninjutsu.
Having just emerged from a Daiki, the middle-aged rogue missing-nin from the Mizukage witnessed the fate of his comrades.
Of the remaining eight, seven escaped the underground Ninjutsu, and one of those seven was then blown apart in mid-air.
One person was entangled and harvested by the black swarm of insects.
In an instant, the Nine team was reduced to only six.
Seeing this, the middle-aged Mizukage missing-nin his grief, shouted while Hand Seals, "Retreat! Water Release: Hidden Mist Technique!"
This team of Nine was formed after they learned that the Wood Release cost 200 million.
Although it was newly formed, two of the Nine were his subordinates who defected with him during his time in the Mizukage.
Three of them were members of the Mist Mizukage who defected from other periods!
The remaining three are from Sunagakure (the Sunagakure ) and two from smaller ninja villages.
Of the three who just died, two were from a small ninja village.
The remaining one was a subordinate with whom he had defected and with whom he had a very close relationship.
But there's no time for sadness now; he can only unleash the cold indifference of the Mizukage and prepare a strategy to counter the enemy!
Although the team was formed temporarily, fortunately, the composition of the members was relatively uniform.
So before they tracked down the Wood Release, they had conducted some joint training.
The Water Release: Hidden Mist Technique they are currently using is one of the final methods and tactics they have discussed!
Upon hearing their leader's words, the five who had barely dodged the series of Ninjutsu immediately began to move.
Four figures wearing Forehead Protector in Mizukage formed the same hand seal almost simultaneously.
And the only one wearing the Sunagakure Forehead Protector and a net-like garment was a middle-aged woman.
He quickly jumped out of range, Hand Seals, and unleashed his signature Wind Release Ninjutsu!
The five people jointly unleashed the Hidden Mist Technique.
Although the power released by each person varied in size, their combined strength completely obscured the entire forest.
When the thick fog dissipated.
The thorns that had broken through the soil had also grown to the right age.
"Pfft!"
A very faint exhalation sound was heard.
Like a signal, a series of sounds, like a volley of arrows, echoed throughout the entire forest.
In Setsuna, in the newly formed thick fog.
The dozens of Wind Blade that flew towards them, and the figure running towards them with a weapon, all stopped in their tracks.
Because it was on the outskirts, the middle-aged woman from Sunagakure was the first to notice the unusual thorns.
She immediately used Earth Release: Subterranean Voyage, hiding herself completely underground!
Meanwhile, the four missing-nin from the Mist Shadow Sect, having just finished unleashing their Hidden Mist Technique and drawn their Kunai swords, were preparing to cooperate with their leader in using Mizukage Silent Killing Technique.
After the indiscriminate attack began, they each used their own means of survival!
The one who reacted the fastest was Wu Shi, only slightly embarrassed.
Several poisonous thorns will be stuck into its body.
The two slower ones, on the other hand, were indiscriminately riddled with poisonous stingers and turned into a pile of mangled flesh.
The one who unleashed this Ninjutsu while they were dodging.
Uka Senju, standing at the center.
After releasing this indiscriminate Ninjutsu, he immediately used Wood Release: Wood Locking Wall to envelop himself and his companions.
Even when using Ninjutsu for defense.
He is also controlling the trees in the outside world through Chakra.
He planted his index and middle fingers in the ground, maximizing his senses, and carefully examined the battlefield.
When it was discovered that two people, one inside and one outside the circle, had hidden underground.
He quickly manipulated the tree roots near the two people.
Although the distance and the fact that he was maintaining two Ninjutsu meant that the strength of the tree roots he was using was only average.
But their overwhelming numbers still had the power to force the two of them out of the ground!
It hides underground at a depth of about 10 meters.
The middle-aged Sand Village woman, who possessed sensory abilities, couldn't help but pat her own large, bound body, which was covered by a net.
The scene around her made her extremely glad that she had reacted quickly!
Otherwise, those two lumps of rotten flesh would have been her fate.
But how did things get like this without even meeting them?
This Wood Release looks even more monstrous than the intelligence reports suggested!
Just as she was marveling to herself, a ripple appeared from underground.
This made her brown eyes widen even more.
Realizing she was in a dead end, she quickly Hand Seals, changed her strategy, and began to think of a way out!
Somewhat disheveled, they were forced out of the range of the Mizukage Technique by the Mizukage within it.
They hid behind a large enough Taiseki Head.
Listening to the sounds behind me.
He sensed the interior of the Mizukage Technique, which was connected to his own Chakra.
Watching his two teammates, whom he had called out to pull off a big heist and earn a living, leave the field.
The middle-aged rogue missing-nin from the Mizukage could no longer maintain the indifference that had gradually diminished since leaving the Mizukage!
His eyes reddened, and the experiences and emotions of those years instantly flooded his mind.
The joint team consisted of Nine.
He didn't care if others died.
But those two subordinates... teammates... friends who defected with him, hid with him, and even married and lived normal lives with him.
They died one after another in less than two minutes right in front of him?
This... sent a chill down his Jonin, a feeling that crept into the heart of this Jonin born in the Mizukage.
After sensing that the two allies hidden underground had been forced out, one was dead and the other wounded!
He thought of his wife and children after his defection.
And the wives and children of those two friends!
He instantly abandoned any thought of continuing and used his Chakra to flee back the way he came!
After their defection, they all recruited ordinary people who had lived ordinary lives before committing this heist.
Therefore, he felt he couldn't die here.
Because his two close friends were already dead, he feared that if he were to die as well.
Then the three families will be left without any support!
If I can escape, then I can take care of everyone!
'I will take care of your wife and children myself, so you don't need to worry.'
"The so-called Ninja of this world are really not suitable for ordinary people like us."
"Don't worry, I will take good care of your family, and I will raise the children to adulthood."
"It was just revenge, sigh, sorry brothers!"
His thoughts raced through his mind, but this did not affect his running speed at all.
He has already given it his all.
At the very least, it's not far off from the time when they defected and fled for their lives!
They used tree roots to force two Mole hiding underground to come out.
Unfortunately, it only resulted in one death and one injury!
Just as Uka Senju was about to stop her Wood Release: Thorns Burst and let her two teammates deal with the two who had escaped, she was about to stop her Wood Release: Thorns Burst.
He killed the wounded Ninja first.
However, he sensed that the two who had escaped the Ninjutsu had actually run away?
Perhaps this is the downside of not having Guard Unit!
In the past, those who tried to escape were killed by them, so information about the three of them was generally not leaked.
But now there's no Guard Unit to clean up the mess.
The Jonin focused on escaping, and the three of them, still under the influence of indiscriminate Ninjutsu, really didn't have a good solution.
Even if we stop chasing now, there's almost no hope of catching up!
Plus, I have a mission to complete...!
Thinking of this, he stopped the indiscriminate Ninjutsu from the outside world.
Looking at two people with equally excellent perception who were also aware of the situation in the outside world.
He smiled helplessly and said, "Only one was left seriously injured."
"You two, whoever isn't satisfied can go and kill them!"
Hearing this, Inuzuka Furin gave Uka, who was making a joke, a helpless shove.
The post-operative effects on himself and the Ninja Dog were removed.
She walked straight to the fire, took two pieces of pork ribs, tossed one to Brown and White, and then sat down to eat her lunch!
Although the nearby forest was now a scene of devastation and reeked of blood.
But she had experienced all sorts of situations during her year away from home.
There will be absolutely no discomfort!
Seeing the Furin ' movements, Aburame Kaun smiled and said, "You can take care of your injuries yourself!"
I'm going to eat first.
After saying that, he put the Mole back into his body and returned to the fire, where he continued eating his lunch.
Seeing his two friends' actions, he shrugged helplessly.
Uka Senju happily collected the energy and the spoils brought by the seven people!
[Energy +261]
[Energy +122]
[Energy +134]
[Energy +277]
[Energy +174]
[Energy +168]
[Energy +189]
Looking at the series of hauls, he returned to the campfire with the packed goods.
They continued enjoying their lunch!
We stopped around 12 o'clock, and it took about forty minutes to prepare lunch and fight.
The mission required them to report to Ihyo Castle before 5 PM.
Based on the current distance, everyone needs to move even faster!
at the same time
In the heart of the ruins of the Grass Kusagakure in the Land of Grass.
A newly built base is located here.
This large, publicly visible base is divided into two parts.
The fourth basement level is used for the cultivation of newly arrived consumables.
Meanwhile, the three floors above ground enjoy the sunlight.
The Command Center is located at the Root!
Although the department finally emerged from underground into the sunlight.
But the gloom at the Root was hardly dispelled by the sunlight.
The lingering stench of blood underground permeated the Root Base with a chilling atmosphere.
"Knock knock knock!"
There was a knock on the door of an office deep within the base!
A one-eyed man dressed in a black robe, who was working in his office, was interrupted by the sound.
His brows furrowed instantly. He looked up at the door and uttered a single word. "Come in!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the person outside pushed open the door and came in.
Looking at the person behind the desk, the man in Combat Uniform and a mask bowed and said, "Greetings, Danzo."
" Butterfly has arrived; Wood Release has left the village again. Observation indicates he has no Guard Unit this time."
"So he arranged for the White Insect Squad to follow and monitor them."
"Because of the unusual Wood Release technique, Butterfly reviewed all recent information regarding the Senju."
Based on the combined information, Butterfly speculates that the Wood Release Squad is heading to the South Battlefield Senju.
"Furthermore, the recent mobilization of several clans has been somewhat unusual, which seems to indicate that they are about to make some move!"
"However, due to a significant lack of information, Butterfly is currently unable to make a detailed judgment!"
Upon hearing that Wood Release Shimura Danzō's cold face softened slightly.
Although he knew all along that the Guard Unit would eventually be withdrawn, allowing Wood Release to become completely independent.
But he didn't expect this good news to arrive so quickly!
But on second thought, this also seems to indicate that the growth rate of Wood Release is actually very fast?
Just as his mind was racing, he heard his subordinates report the Butterfly's speculation.
This situation immediately made his face turn cold and his brows furrow.
Butterfly!
He had personally bestowed this code name upon that person, and he knew his subordinate's abilities best.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have entrusted the root of Konoha to Butterfly to handle.
The Butterfly's speculation, though just speculation, is given this name!
That means the various races will definitely take some action!
After thinking for a moment, Shimura Danzō looked at the masked middle-aged man opposite him with his single eye and said, "Send the messenger Butterfly to deliver a copy of the information to Sarutobi, along with a message informing Sarutobi of the emergency meeting."
"Go and arrange for Tanuki to prepare the manpower. Lead the team back to the village with me in three hours!"
He felt he had to go back.
The first is a transformation of Wood Release.
That kid's grown up fast; now he doesn't have Guard Unit anymore.
Therefore, the targeted measures should be accelerated!
Even if we can't make a move.
Then it's time for the long-awaited thunder to be unleashed.
Secondly, it's due to the abnormalities of the Senju clan.
This is crucial information, regardless of what the next few tribes intend to do.
While gathering information, he also needed to return to the village as soon as possible.
Otherwise, what if they make a move?
By the time they rush back, they might not even be able to recover a single body that's still warm!
Thirdly, I should follow up on this year's payments.
He'd only been away for six months, and the funds that were supposed to arrive in the village last month were already there.
They still haven't called?
If I don't go back and ask Sarutobi...
That monkey might actually have misappropriated the funds elsewhere!
Upon hearing the instructions from the other side, the middle-aged man in Combat Uniform and a mask bowed again and said, "Yes!"
After saying that, seeing that there were no other arrangements, [the speaker] then...
The middle-aged man quickly left the room, closing the door behind him, and began to carry out the adults' orders!
He walked down the corridor illuminated by incandescent lights to the intelligence room on the same floor.
Looking at the intelligence chief, a middle-aged man wearing a mask stepped forward and handed over a note.
After receiving the information from the other side, he turned and left the room, heading towards the operations department located on the basement level.
After passing through several checkpoints along the stairs, I arrived at an office.
"Knock knock knock!"
After knocking, there was no response from inside.
The middle-aged man wearing a mask Gate of Opening and went inside.
Upon hearing the knock and the Gate of Opening, the person busy inside immediately guessed who it was.
He quickly pulled out his tools, released the person serving him, and tossed him aside.
Upon entering, I saw the people tidying up and several naked women in the corner, their faces filled with fear and numbness.
The middle-aged man wearing a mask involuntarily furrowed his brow, which was hidden by the mask.
But then I remembered the other person's identity.
He suppressed his reprimand and said coldly, "Pass on the lord's order: select men, and return to the village with the lord in three hours!"
After saying that, he ignored the other person's reply.
He left the room and walked directly towards his original office.
In the past, when they were in the village, everyone was normal.
But ever since I arrived in the Land of Grass.
Environmental changes, changes in conditions.
Some people started to become quite unscrupulous.
But these people also possess the identity of Shimura or Shinobi Clan!
It seems... if you want someone reliable, there aren't that many problems.
We still need to wait until these underground people have fully matured!
Shimura and those who came to Root without receiving training.
They are reliable in handling matters, but some of their behaviors are inevitably unbearable!
They saw the middle-aged man leave immediately after giving the order.
Because Shimura wasn't wearing a mask while on business... Tanuki raised an eyebrow indifferently.
He knew this person disapproved of his behavior.
But in his view, all he needed to do was to complete the tasks assigned by the adults.
So, if you have the means, what's wrong with enjoying yourself?
The work we do nowadays is so dangerous.
They could lose their heads at any moment.
"You're just playing around with it yourself, Danzo didn't object, so what are you objecting to?"
He was playing with the people of the Land of Grass, the mothers and families of those underground resources.
It's not yours, why do you have so many opinions?
While cursing the Secretary in her heart, Tanuki dressed in her clothes and armor and prepared the weapons she needed for the mission.
"Take care of these guys, don't kill them, I haven't had enough fun yet!" He said to his teammates who had just fought alongside him, after tidying himself up.
Hearing this, the person who had just been pulled away and was lying on the ground nodded slightly and said, "Don't worry, I'll save it for you."
"Even if I die from playing too hard, I'll go down to the underworld and find you a few more trials where you've lost."
With so many people, are you worried about not having enough fun?
Shrugging, Tanuki smiled and put on the mask, saying, "These guys have an added advantage in terms of status!"
"Let's go, while you're having fun, don't forget to take care of your own business!"
"Don't worry." Hearing the words of advice and watching his teammate leave, the person on the ground waved his hand and said.
On the outskirts of Konoha, in an underground base.
The corridor was illuminated by the blinding light emitted by white light bulbs.
A Young Man dressed in a black Combat Uniform, gray armor, and wearing a cat-face mask moved quickly.
I ran around the corner and came to the door of an office.
After calming his breathing, he knocked on the door.
"Knock knock knock!"
The knocking on the wooden door carried far in the relatively quiet underground.
Such a commotion would naturally wake up those resting inside!
She got up, picked up the white cat-face mask with blue stripes next to her, and put it on.
A somewhat muffled voice rang out. "Enter."
"Creak!"
Pushing open the door caused the wooden hinges to turn.
A soft sound was heard, and Young Man wearing a cat-face mask entered. He quickly walked to the table, bowed, and said, "Greetings, sir."
" Danzo has replied."
After speaking, the Young Man placed the envelope he was holding on the table and took two steps back.
Upon hearing this, the white-and-blue cat-faced masked man, who had been awakened from his rest, picked up the envelope and examined it.
Looking at that short sentence, he nodded and instructed, "Go and call Short Tail, Red Bird, and White Elephant over."
"Yes!" the Young Man wearing the cat-face mask replied.
Seeing that there were no further instructions from the other side, he slowly left the room, closed the door behind him, and continued running through the underground base.
"Snap!"
The door was locked again.
Sitting in a large office chair.
Leaning back, Butterfly pondered the contents of the letter and the information she had gleaned.
"It's about to begin!"
Having reached a conclusion, he let out a long sigh.
He was appointed by Danzo as the head of the Root within Konoha.
He knows a great deal of information.
Besides his own side, he also had a plan for the situation on the Senju side!
Therefore, based on his speculation, he could imagine how horrific the future scenes would be.
Although I really don't want to, this is the only way to peace!
I waited for about two minutes.
There was another knock on the door, and three people dressed in identical clothes and wearing cat-face masks entered.
Looking at the white cat-face mask with blue patterns behind the table, they all bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Excellency."
Nodding to signal the three to stand up, Butterfly looked at them and instructed, "Take Short Tail and take the information from number 13 to see the Lord Hokage. While you're File, inform the Hokage that Lord Danzo is about to return and request a meeting."
"Yes!" A middle-aged man with black hair and wearing a mask bowed and said.
I straightened up and saw the signal from the other side.
He turned around, opened the door, and began to carry out his task.
After everyone left, Butterfly looked at the two remaining people in the room and said, " Red Bird, arrange for people to keep watch, and make sure to verify the information with White Insect promptly."
"If any problems arise, a second team will be dispatched immediately."
"No need to follow closely, just stay behind and know where the Wood Release technique is!"
"Yes!" A woman's clear and crisp voice answered from the center.
Shifting her gaze to the middle-aged man at the far end, Butterfly continued her instructions, " White Elephant, take a Middle Unit out of the village and wait outside for Danzo's arrival."
"Make sure the adults arrive safely!"
As the person in charge of Konoha, he was well aware of the suppression that the Senju Shimura Clan over the past six months.
Although the adults returned suddenly, their route was also concealed.
But what if the Thousand Senju find out?
That Senju wouldn't mind stabbing someone hard on the way!
The adults will definitely bring someone with them.
However, because they need to conceal their whereabouts, the number of people will not be too large.
And this is the time when people are most likely to let their guard down, especially when they are close to Konoha.
Leaving a backup plan is always a safe bet!
"Yes!" came a middle-aged man's voice from behind the mask.
There were no other arrangements made after the table was set up.
The two men, codenamed Red Bird and White Elephant, then turned and began to carry out their orders.
As time goes by.
The sun gradually moved westward.
Starting from Konoha, they eliminated two groups of pursuers and one group of assassins along the way.
Uka Senju, his two companions, and their dog finally arrived at the South Battlefield Command Center Ihyo Castle, just in time for the mission.
Watching the figures in Combat Uniform constantly moving in and out of the small town.
Aburame Kaun and Inuzuka Furin also noticed the unusual atmosphere here!
This is based on the information that Uka Senju told the two of them on the way.
They had also made some mental preparations for what would happen next.
After passing through two checkpoints, we proceeded along the city road paved with Stone Slab.
The three people and one dog arrived at the simple Stone House in the center of the city.
"Please inform Sawagen!" Uka Senju took the entire item from her teammate and handed it to the guard at the door.
He looked at the three people in front of him, especially the white-haired guy who handed over his ID.
After verifying the information with what the captain had given him that morning, the guard waved his hand and said, "Lord Sawagen's office is in the innermost room; you can just go there directly!"
"Go straight down this road, turn left twice and right once, and the office is there."
Hearing the words of the guard dressed in the Yuhi clan's attire, he nodded, understanding that they must have received the message.
After expressing her gratitude, Uka Senju led her teammates to find the location of the office, following the directions given by the guard.
"Knock knock knock!"
This is an office without a door, only a curtain for privacy.
He could vaguely see the target he was looking for through the curtain.
But there seemed to be a conversation inside. Listening to the intermittent words, he could only stand at the door and knock on the stone wall next to the door.
Information gathering is complete; the plan is about to commence.
Sawagen Senju, the person in charge of the South Battlefield, has been extremely busy lately.
Odd jobs are handled by subordinates.
However, the team leaders who were carrying out different tasks needed him to communicate with them separately about some details.
The plan in this Senju is to eliminate most of the enemies who jumped out earlier.
Therefore, he needed to personally oversee and confirm the coordination between the various teams and the scheduling of events!
Just as he was giving instructions to the Company Commander in front of him about the follow-up training tasks after the mission was completed,
A knock sounded at the door, and upon hearing it Sawagen Senju turned his head and said, "Come in!"
With permission, Uka Senju Gate of Opening and led her two teammates into the office.
I walked through the simple reception area and came to the desk.
Ignoring the gaze cast by the Company Commander beside her, Uka Senju and her teammates bowed and said, "Greetings, Sawagen! The Wood Release Squad is here to report for duty!"
Make sure you can see who is Gate of Opening, and wait for them to bow.
Sawagen Senju waved his hand, signaling the three of them to stand up.
Then he turned to Company Commander Hatake, who was standing to the side, and said, "You're familiar with the mission details now, remember what I said."
"Especially the second one, this one absolutely cannot go wrong!"
"Yes, Sawagen!" Upon hearing the arrangement behind the desk, the middle-aged Jonin, dressed in a uniform bearing the Hatake Clan, stood up and bowed.
He received the order and took the File handed to him from the other side.
He smiled and nodded at Uka Senju and the other two, then turned and left the office!
When I heard about the second task before...
He was still thinking that he didn't seem to have met Wood Release and the others before.
I was just about to ask Lord Sawagen for a portrait so I could recognize him.
But before he could even say it...
Did the real person then appear before him?
So he withdrew his request.
