Chapter 378 Returning the Seven-Tails

The high profile of the Earth Country and the Iwa Ninja Village not only caused confusion in the Taki Country, but also heightened Konoha's vigilance.

With the sophisticated calculations of Sarutobi Hiruzen and others, they naturally knew the purpose of the Iwa Ninja Village. The other party came to Konoha with the intention of returning the Nanao.

"The Tsuchikage is starting to cause trouble again. One thing is certain, his goal is to force us to return the Nanao. Shikaku, do you think the Tsuchikage's purpose is for the Nanao, or to weaken our strength?"

In the high-level meeting, Tsunade was the first to ask questions.

Nara Shikaku pondered slightly and said: "With the Fourth Tsuchikage's style, he may have both ideas. But there should be a focus."

"It's just that it's about the tailed beast. I don't know much about the role of the tailed beast, so I can't judge what his motive is for going after the seven tails and how likely it is."

Nara Shikaku's answer was more conservative. He had kept a low profile since the last incident in Nara Shikakusen.

Koharu turned to bed and looked at Tsunade and said, "Tsunade, do you know the specific functions of tailed beasts?"

When Koharu went to bed, he asked Tsunade, not Sarutobi Hiruzen. Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't necessarily know as much about tailed beasts as Tsunade did. Tsunade's direct grandmother was the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki.

Tsunade shook her head and said: "Unfortunately, the three nine-tailed jinchuriki in the village are all related to the Uzumaki clan. The physique of the Uzumaki clan is far superior to ordinary people, so our jinchūriki have always been the most stable."

"But precisely because it is stable and there is no crisis, we have done the least research on tailed beasts. Neither my grandma nor Kushina have an in-depth understanding of the Kyuubi."

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded and said: "We know too little about tailed beasts, unlike the Kumo ninja. The Kumo ninja have spent the most energy on tailed beasts in the past few decades, and their research results are also the most outstanding."

Mito Kadoyan asked: "Isn't there still a Nanao in the village? Has any relevant research been conducted?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said: "The Seven-Tails was not sealed into the Jinchuuriki's body, it was just sealed in a container, and there is no way to study it."

Mito Kadoyan frowned again and asked: "In that case, does the research on tailed beasts in Iwa Ninja Village have outstanding results?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen recalled the last jinchuriki appearance in Iwa Ninja Village. It seemed that it was during the Third Ninja War, and the opponent seemed to be Jiraiya.

The performance of the five-tailed Jinchuuriki that time was mediocre. And it seems that less than seven years have passed since then. In seven years, the Iwa ninja's research on the tailed beasts should not have made much progress.

So Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Iwa Ninja did not spend much energy on the research of tailed beasts. The focus of Iwa Ninja's development in the past should be senjutsu."

Mito Kadoen said: "In this case, if the Iwa Ninja is going for the Nanao, it can only be to give the Iwa Ninja Village one more tailed beast. Do you think it is more likely that the Iwa Ninja will do this?

"

Tsunade immediately said: "Impossible, unless the Iwa-nin is ready to unify the ninja world. Otherwise, it is impossible for the Iwa-nin to publicize our conspiracy against Taki-nin's Nanao while also attacking the Nanao himself."

"But now the strength of Iwa Ninja Village is far from reaching the level of unifying the ninja world by force. Once they do this, they will be seeking death."

At this time, Danzo suddenly spoke: "In that case, let Iwa Ninja go and die."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's brows moved, and he immediately understood what his good friend was thinking, and said: "Danzo, are you going to pretend to be an Iwa-nin and attack Taki-nin?"

"Hmph, Yichen claims to be smart, but he underestimates everyone in the world. No one can see that his Iwa-nin is here for Nanao. In this case, his Iwa-nin has enough motivation to attack Nanao." Danzo said.

.

"We don't need to instigate this matter. Taki-nin's first reaction was that Yichen had attacked Nanao. You know, he has a criminal record."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was a little moved and asked: "How sure are you?"

After all, Konoha suffered a lot at the hands of Yichen.

Danzo snorted coldly and said: "Since you don't believe in the Anbu, then let the Anbu execute it."

After saying these words, Danzo slammed the door and left.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the closed door and frowned slightly. Danzo would not betray the ANBU's whereabouts again and mess things up.

Xiaoharu also had the same worries when she went to bed. She said, "Hiruzhan, why don't you go there yourself?"

From Koharu's point of view, only if Hiruzen Sarutobi personally takes action would Danzo not engage in small tricks.

Mito Kadoen smiled bitterly and interjected: "If Hiruzen wants to leave the village, he'd better take Danzo with him. Otherwise, none of us can stop Danzo from causing chaos."

Seeing that everyone else agreed with his statement, Mito Kaden continued: "Hiruzhan, I think you should go to the roots and discuss it with Danzo and let the ANBU and the roots act together. In this way, Danzo should

I won’t mess around anymore.”

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, nodded and stopped talking.

…

More than ten days later, at the border between Fire and Taki, more than a dozen Konoha Anbu and more than twenty Taki nin completed the handover of Nanao at the border.

The leader of the Taki-nin side is an elite Jonin named Kensuke. His strength is pretty good, and he is one of the top ranked ones in the Taki-nin village.

After getting the Nanao and watching all the Konoha ninjas leave, Kensuke breathed a sigh of relief. The Nanao was finally back in his hands.

As the top fighting force in the village, Kensuke can feel the changes in the village when there are tailed beasts. When the tailed beasts are not lost, Taki Ninja Village is different from other small ninja villages.

No matter where the ninjas of Taki Ninja Village go, other small ninja villages will give them three points.

But since the tailed beast was lost, other small ninja villages felt that it was inappropriate to give Taki-nin special privileges. They all changed their attitudes towards Taki-nin, and they wanted to take out all the anger they had suffered on Taki-nin.

Therefore, these days, the status of Taki Ninja Village in the ninja world has plummeted, and small Ninja Villages often take the initiative to provoke Taki Ninja.

He handed the pottery pot with the seven tails sealed in his hand to a subordinate, and then Kensuke said: "When we return to the village, everyone should be careful. No one can be careless before returning to the village. Be careful of the Iwa ninja."

"Yes." More than twenty people responded in unison, and then maintained their battle formation and headed towards Taki Ninja Village.

Kensuke also took out his weapon and remained on guard.

However, the group was ambushed not long after entering the hinterland of Takino Country.

More than thirty masked wandering ninjas launched a sneak attack, killing and injuring most of Taki's team.

Kensuke found in despair that there were at least three people in this team who were stronger than himself. There were also quite a few who were no less powerful than himself.

What kind of wandering ninja is this? This is definitely the elite of the five great ninja villages.

Kensuke looked desperate, but at this time he could only do his best.

In the end, all the Taki-nin were wiped out, and the Nanao was also snatched away.

However, shortly after the attacker left, Kensuke's body suddenly moved, and then he slowly sat up.

"Damn it." He touched the penetrating wound on his left chest and found that his heart was just a little bit punctured.

Kensuke briefly treated his wounds, then quickly went to the nearest town and delivered the news to the leader of Takinin Village.

After delivering the news, Kensuke returned to the place where he was attacked. Before he fell into coma, he vaguely remembered that the group of ninjas went north after succeeding.

He searched carefully to the north.

After a long time, he found some traces.

"Damn it. These ninjas are too cautious. These traces will disappear in a short time. If I hadn't happened to be dead and the village discovered the problem and sent ninjas to search, there would definitely be no traces by then." Kensuke

I hate it secretly in my heart.

Next, Kensuke left a signal for reinforcements in the village while seizing the time to continue tracking towards the north.

A few kilometers north of Kensuke, thirty or so Konoha elites dressed as wandering ninjas were resting.

The leader said to the person next to him: "Lao San, how is the situation going forward?"

The third child said: "Boss, that man is five kilometers away, following us, searching for the clues we left. Counting the time, the people he sent to contact Takinin Village will soon arrive at Takinin Village."

The boss nodded, and then said to the other person: "Old Seven, the next clue will be more concealed. My request is: the person behind can't be found, but his reinforcements can."

Lao Qi nodded and said, "Understood."

In this way, under the guidance of these Konoha elites, Kensuke and the leader of Taki Ninja Village who later personally reinforced them finally followed their footsteps into the Earth Kingdom with difficulty.

"The leader is really the Iwa Ninja." Kensuke looked in the direction of Earth Country with a look of despair.

The leader of Taki Ninja Village also had an ugly face. Although he had expected it, when the truth was revealed in front of him, he still felt dizzy.

"Keep chasing," the leader said.

Kensuke was startled, hesitated and said: "Chief, it's too dangerous. If Iwa Nin wants to silence me..."

The leader said: "Don't worry, we are not going deep, we are just confirming again."

Kensuke and others were helpless.

In this way, Taki Ren and his party went a short distance deeper into the Earth Kingdom.

Then they lost track of Konoha and his party.

Just when the leader was about to give up, the last scout ninja came back with a weird look on his face.

He said: "Chief, please go over and take a look."

The leader, Kensuke and others were confused, but they still went to where the man pointed.

After a while, the group of people came to a rock. There was a wooden sign on the rock. The wooden sign said: The target person is twelve kilometers away in the north. The opponent has long-range reconnaissance capabilities. It is recommended not to approach the opponent for five days.

Within kilometers.

The leader of the Taki ninja and his subordinates looked at each other.

Kensuke couldn't help but said: "Chief, is this a scam?"

The leader smiled bitterly and said: "There is a fraud, there must be a fraud. We have obviously been used as a weapon. Neither the group of ninjas in front nor this ninja who left us clues have good intentions towards us."

Kensuke hesitated and asked: "Chief, are we still pursuing him?"

The leader gritted his teeth and said, "Keep chasing, but don't chase too closely. I want to see what this man wants us to see by leading us over."
