Create a swarm technology tree in Konoha

After a big battle, Sunagakure Village temporarily retreated, but Konoha Village was undecided whether to launch an attack, so the battlefield situation eased.

Hatake Sakumo did not stay in the Kingdom of Rain when the war was suspended. He was transferred from the battlefield of the Kingdom of Wind as a fire captain, and soon went to the battlefield of the Kingdom of Water.

In order to boost morale, the top management of Konoha did not hide the whereabouts of Konoha White Fang, but the specific time when they left and which route they took were absolute secrets.

Although Hatake Sakumo killed 4 Sunagakure jounin in this battle and raised his jounin kill record to 39, this was achieved with support and cover. It would still be very dangerous if his whereabouts were leaked and blocked by four or five jounin.

After all, today's Sunagakure Village issued an order to take down White Fang's head at all costs against this formidable enemy who had killed thirty of their own jounin, instead of "retreat immediately upon seeing White Fang" a few years later.

A great ninja village must be killed to such an extent that it would issue such a desperate and unfulfilled order.

Anyway, the Sandaime Hokage was not able to gain such a reputation until his death, and every now and then there would be some rubbish combinations like the Kirigakure Seven Ninja Swords who would claim to kill him, so they really didn't take him seriously.

Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't complain. After he ascended to the position of Hokage, he never fought seriously on the battlefield again.

The Sandaime doesn't have the title of "The Strongest Hokage of All Time" on his head. A rubbish title like "Doctor of Ninjutsu" is really not a deterrent. He hasn't set a new record in ten years.

For Konoha ninjas like Aburame Tetsumaru, the biggest impact after Hatake Sakumo's departure was that the Sunagakure ninjas came back, and the good days of returning to the Land of Fire to bask in the sun were over.

Uchiha Kei was very happy because he received a heavy reward from his family for being promoted to the Ryomatama. Not only did he get money, but he also mastered several ninjutsu, especially the thunder escape ninjutsu that was suitable for the Land of Rain. He was very happy to show it. Two.

But this guy is really an outlier among the outliers in the Uchiha family. Aburame Tetsumaru found that he had been pretending to be proud, but in fact he was extremely cautious and cautious, without the slightest bit of rebelliousness.

But Uchiha Keiya is not an Uchiha with boundless love. He is not kind at all. Ordinary people are very active in hiding their whereabouts and silencing them.

Obviously an illusion can be done and it is more reliable, but he is more willing to kill people, then burn them to ashes, and then bury the ashes deep or simply spread them.

There is always something about this behavior that makes people want to laugh and feel embarrassed, and it feels very familiar.

Aburame Tetsuwan savored it carefully: Well~~~, the taste of the protagonist.

…

"There is a new mission."

Aburame Tetsumaru took the task letter, a thin piece of paper, folded it in half three times, and sealed the edges with wax.

In front of the messenger ninja, Aburame Tetsumaru confirmed the integrity of the wax seal, and then opened the mission book. After remembering the mission content firmly, he summoned a swarm of insects to eat the mission book.

After signing the document proving acceptance of the mission, handing it to the messenger ninja and sending him away, Aburame Tetsumaru scratched his head. It turned out to be a mission to clear out the traitorous ninja.

As we all know, Konoha Village is the most tolerant of rebellious ninjas. It rarely takes the initiative to issue missions to hunt down rebellious ninjas, causing a lot of Konoha rebellious ninjas to cause trouble in the ninja world. At the peak of the Four Wars, It was basically the Konoha rebel Ninja group beating the five major Ninja villages.

So if a rare mission to hunt down traitorous ninjas is released, it will be very troublesome, super troublesome.

For example, in the pursuit of Orochimaru more than ten years later, Konoha Village was indeed pretending, but for the ninja who was hit by the mission, it would inevitably add a failure record, which was tiring and without money.

What's even worse is that you're pretending to be a good person but are unlucky enough to bump into the real one. That's the end of the world. Anyone who rebels must have something wrong in his heart, and he might kill you if he doesn't.

Fortunately, the target of this mission was a chuunin, not a jounin, let alone a genin. Tetsumaru felt a lot more relieved, at least he didn't worry that he would be killed by a traitorous ninja.

After packing up the bugs and equipment, summoning his two subordinates, Aburame Tetsumaru's team embarked on the pursuit.

According to the information in the mission book, this rebellious ninja is called Jiu Yuan. He is thirty-three years old and belongs to the ninja stationed in Konoha Village. He set off from Konoha Village on a mission six days ago. During the period, he killed two teammates and defected.

The last time he was seen was two days ago. At that time, Jiuyuan's defection had not yet been exposed. He received an important piece of information from an intelligence station.

This intelligence station is an intelligence center set up for the Kingdom of Earth. It is very close to the camp of the Kingdom of Rain army, so the pursuit mission is assigned to the frontline ninja army.

While on the road, Aburame Tetsumaru informed the two subordinates of the intelligence and mission content.

Uchiha Kei didn't say a word, but his murderous aura became stronger. He wanted to kill someone.

What surprised Aburame Tetsumaru was Kurama Cloud. After hearing the information, the little girl rolled her eyes and her temperament suddenly changed.

She is obviously still the skinny little girl with no breasts and no butt, but she becomes more charming when she walks and jumps, and a lazy and charming atmosphere permeates her.

Even his speaking voice changed, and he muttered in a slightly hoarse cigarette voice: "At the root, this is troublesome."

"!!"

Damn it, another monster.

Aburame Tetsumaru continued to move forward calmly, but in her heart, ten thousand divine beasts rushed past. Yes, the intelligence in the mission is vague on the key intelligence.

The traitor Jiu Yuan accepted a piece of "important" information and defected. It was normal not to disclose the specific content of the information, but it was not right to not say what kind of information it was, nor to demand that the information be recovered or destroyed.

The logical mission should be to kill the traitorous ninja, recover and confirm the intelligence, but there was none.

There is a high probability that there is something in this information that is not suitable for him to know, and someone else is responsible for executing the information.

This is annoying.

The ones who do such dirty work in the Leaf Village are the roots.

If you look at the composition of Aburame's Tetsumaru team, there is one Uchiha, one Kurama, and one Aburame. They are either the target of being persecuted by the root, or they are talents coveted by the root.

Of course, Aburame Tetsumaru would wonder if there was something fishy about assigning this mission to his team. For example, a man who was not yet blind wanted to hunt rabbits, kill the traitorous ninja and regain the information, and kill a thorn in his side at the same time, so that the two wanted to Talents "volunteer" to join ANBU.

These things were complicated, and even though Aburame Tetsumaru II was a person and knew a lot of plot information, it still took him a while to figure it out.

And Kurama Yun figured it out as soon as he rolled his eyes. Isn't this a monster? The most important thing is that this little girl's voice and temperament have changed. Could it be that she is possessed by an old ghost? Or is it a split personality, with a separate personality with an IQ of 300?

It feels like looking directly at the protagonist.

[I hope I’m overthinking]

The three people came to Konoha's intelligence station, which was hidden under a remote grocery store in the town. There were very few businesses in the town and there were very few customers. It was very suitable as a cover for covert activities.

Sneaking past the drowsy clerk, Aburame Tetsumaru entered the secret passage behind the store and met the Konoha intelligence ninja stationed there.

Capturing traitorous ninjas in the ninja world is different from catching fugitives in Blue Star. In most cases, traitorous ninjas are premeditated and fully prepared to defect during the mission time. When they find out that at least one day has passed, the subsequent pursuit and competition will be fierce. It’s tracking and counter-tracking.

For example, Beilihu of Konoha Village and Xie of Sunagakure Village are typical rebellious ninjas, and they were dealt with as missing before reappearing.

The later defection of Orochimaru and Erzhu was actually a huge failure. They were discovered before they even left the house and were beaten out. Isn't this nonsense?

It's not that the background of these two people is too deep, the whole village went crazy together, and everyone had to die at the gate of the village.

According to the latest newly obtained information, Jiuyuan is most likely a spy rather than a traitor. He killed two teammates during the mission and then disappeared.

At the same time, a piece of information about Iwagakure Village carried by the three ninjas also disappeared.

The reason why it was judged that the chuunin Jiugen defected was because the two dead ninjas were killed by close-range sneak attacks and ate poisonous food before they died. This was an obvious attack by an acquaintance.

Two of the three people died at the hands of acquaintances, and the remaining one was missing. Moreover, the information held by the three people was also missing. Everyone could conclude that Jiuyuan defected.

After receiving Jiuyuan's information, Aburame Tetsumaru set off with the team without any delay. Two and a half days had passed, and tracking was quite difficult.

First, they came to the place where the two sacrificed ninjas were found. All traces became very blurry, and the three of them were unable to analyze any information. In the end, the parasitic bug barely managed to capture a faint aura belonging to Jiuyuan, and finally the mission could continue.

However, the parasites captured the scent of many people, including the scent of ninja dogs.

Aburame Tetsumaru immediately thought of his classmate Inuzuka Takeshi. His ninja and ninja dog combination was the most suitable for tracking tasks, but the Aburame family's parasitic bug was still a little worse.

There is no doubt that this mission is still a nasty competition mission, and there is another team of ninjas who are also performing this mission.

"It's annoying now. There are people from the Inuzuka family competing with us. It's not easy to deal with." Uchiha Kei frowned and said that he had no confidence in defeating the Inuzuka in this kind of task.

Aburame Tetsumaru interrupted him and said: "Perform the mission at our own pace, and don't feel like we will lose until the result is determined."

"Follow me."

Aburame Tetsumaru gave the order, and then Ichima started to move toward the northeast.

Before dark, the Aburame team arrived close to the border of the Land of Fire. After walking a few dozen miles, they would enter the Land of Fields, but the scent of the target became stronger here, and seemed to linger many times.

In addition to the smell of Jiuyuan, there are also the smells of the ninja dog, its owner, and more people. Are they hiding and seeking here?

Aburame Tetsumaru was a little strange, but that didn't stop him from leading his men to follow the freshest smell. He just had to chase the latest smell. This was the Land of Fire after all, and there weren't that many surprises.

[You can't bump into the Jinchuuriki again. 】

"Bah, bah, bah"

Planting flags on the battlefield, isn't this asking for death?

Gradually, the smell became stronger and stronger, and obvious traces of movement could be seen, so Uchiha Kai walked at the front of the team.

After more than half an hour, the three people tracked to a hillside. Aburame Tetsumaru suddenly stopped. Here he discovered a new situation.

The very obvious smell and movement traces went over the hillside towards a village below. Standing on the hillside, you can even see the movement tracks in the rice fields outside the village.

Uchiha Kei was a little anxious. The guy with excellent eyes saw the traces in the rice fields. At least a dozen ninjas ran along this road. The three of them were obviously lagging behind.

As a result, Aburame Tetsumaru stopped at the top of the uphill slope. He looked left and right, but he had no intention of going down.

Kai finally couldn't help but said: "Captain, if we don't hurry up, it will be too late."

Aburame Tetsumaru turned her head and stared at Uchiha Kei indifferently without saying a word, then suddenly reached out and grabbed Uchiha Kei's face.

This lightning-like explosion made Uchiha Kai completely unable to react, especially since the one-hand spread of the 1.7-meter Aburame Tetsumaru was much larger than the entire head of the 1.5-meter Uchiha Kai. It was as if a college student had caught a volleyball.

Not only was Uchiha Kei's head tightly grasped, but surging chakra also came from Aburame Tetsumaru's big hand, impacting his whole body like a tsunami, washing away all the chakra in his body.

This is a completely violent imitation of the Hyuga Family Juju Boxing Technique, which uses a massive amount of chakra to overwhelm the enemy's chakra, leaving people in a predicament where their whole bodies are weak.

After confirming that Uchiha Kei's whole body was soft, Aburame Tetsumaru lifted him up with force, and then shook him from side to side, causing Kei's whole body to be tossed around like noodles.

"Pfft, goose goose goose goose~"

Kurama Yun saw the always-tough, cold and gloomy Uchiha Kei being tossed around like a rag doll, and he couldn't hold back and was frightened, and then he laughed like a big white goose.

"..."

"..."

The two male ninjas looked at the girl together, but she still kept laughing. Now, there was no serious atmosphere.

As long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.

This classic famous sentence came to Aburame Tetsumaru's mind. Now he was really embarrassed, so he threw Uchiha Kei on the ground without saying a word and continued to observe the surrounding situation and traces.

By the time Uchiha Kai's body returned to normal and he got up from the ground, Aburame Tetsumaru had checked the entire surrounding environment and confirmed the problem.

The problem is that the rebel Jiu Yuan is not alone. On both sides of the route he passed, there are traces of three entire teams of ninjas lurking. Aburame Tetsumaru was even able to determine that these lurkers were standing where he stood for a while after a dozen ninjas chased Jiu Yuan, and then calmly retreated after cleaning up the traces.

[Thankfully I was a step late, otherwise I wouldn’t have discovered these lurkers. 】

Aburame Tetsumaru narrowed his eyes. These ninjas were all top-notch, and their stealth skills were very good, with no flaws.

If they hadn't slightly destroyed the traces traced by the Konoha ninjas when they cleaned up the traces before retreating, Tetsumaru wouldn't have been able to find anyone lurking on both sides.

The mission has been upgraded.
