Chapter 92 [092] Or lighter than a feather

"thump."

The root ninja, codenamed Leopard, fell to the ground, his round head rolling off, splattering blood all over the ground.

When the other ninjas present saw this scene, they all had a cold expression, and the numb expression under the mask did not even change at all.

Naturally, Big Tit would not hesitate at all.

He lifted the head and directed the other root ninjas to lead everyone in the fifth team into the interrogation room.

While he was busy, he suddenly noticed that the sealing technique on his wrist was slightly hot.

——That was the message from Mr. Jianghui.

"Take them for a good review."

"Find out why the people weren't cleaned up."

Big Tit ordered the interrogation department personnel in a cold voice, then quickly walked aside with his head in hand.

"yes."

No one had any doubts about his behavior.

At the root, the orders from superiors to subordinates are absolute.

After walking a little further, Big Tit started his psychic technique in a hidden corner.

[Root, male, thin-edged petrel pattern mask, thin figure. 】

[If this person is still alive, command him or his team to go to the designated location. 】

On the letter, there was no mention at all of what Aida Masaki needed this person to do.

Big Tit knows that this matter is risky, but Master Jianghui's order is absolute.

He recalled this feature, and then ordered to a person behind him:

"Wren."

"exist."

A root ninja who was arresting members of the fifth team walked out quickly and half-knelt on the ground.

Big Tit simply ordered: "Take your people and go to this address to receive information."

"yes."

After just such a simple process, the man codenamed Wren led a three-person team out of the queue.

There's nothing special about this squad.

If there was anything special about them, it would probably be that - Wren was the one who issued the mission to Tachibana Sakuta and was responsible for handling all related matters.

At the same time, he is also one of the insiders of the entire Tachibana Sakuta incident.

Soon, the group arrived at the designated spot on the edge of the forest outside the village.

However, they did not find the corresponding street personnel.

Under the night, there were only a few sporadic flames dimming.

Smoke billows under the trees.

"really."

"Asking that adult for help is the right choice."

Tachibana Sakuta was half-crouched under the root of a tree, with half a cigarette butt in his mouth and his voice was hoarse.

As early as when he learned that his information was leaked, he suspected that Aida Masaki had planted a nail in the root.

And now, this has only been confirmed.

Hearing that faint voice, all the members of the root team immediately tensed up, their eyes as sharp as knives.

"Is it a trap?"

"Ahem. Don't worry."

Tachibana Sakuta, who had smoked an entire pack for the first time, coughed slightly and straightened up while holding his knees:

"You can't escape anyway."

With that calm tone, Tachibana Sakuta unfolded the ninja belt on his back - on it were inserted four brand-new sealing scrolls obtained from unknown sources.

Tachibana Sakuta unfolded one of the scrolls, pressed it on the ground, and quickly formed seals.

Suddenly, the barrier activated.

Lock them all in together.

Tachibana Sakuta straightened up and twitched the corner of his mouth.

He looked at the root ninjas opposite and showed a relieved smile.

No one noticed that a shadow clone was sitting on the treetop not far away, watching this scene quietly like an audience.

Hokage's office.

Sarutobi Hiruzen had a dissatisfied look on his face, with the pipe in his mouth, smoking one after another.

He hurried over from home after receiving Danzo's signal. At this time, he didn't even put on the Hokage hat he usually used in the past. His short hair on the temples was gray to the naked eye, and the whites of his eyes were slightly bloodshot.

When he strode into the office, he saw Danzo Shimura pacing back and forth in the room with a gloomy expression, his face darkened.

"What happened again?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sat on the guest chair, rubbing his temples and pouring himself a cup of strong tea - although in his spare time at work, he often found time to use his telescope to peek at the women's bathhouse, and occasionally read

It’s an unhealthy adult book to read, but in fact Naruto’s work is still very busy.

At least, for a person of his age, it already seems very unfriendly.

If you can't keep up with sleep at night, you can imagine the mental stress.

Seeing his unhurried look, Shimura Danzo glared and tried his best to suppress his anger and took a deep breath: "Hiruzhan, you clearly knew that Aida Masaki and the others had problems, why didn't you solve them in advance?

?”

"Solve what?!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen got angry when he heard this, and asked with a sneer: "They haven't even arrived at the village yet, and everyone in Konoha knows that an entire squadron of elite ninjas were wiped out in Yuno Country - Farewell

Tell me you don't know who did it."

"Now, the whole village is staring at the follow-up investigation results of this matter. It's enough of a headache for me to solve the follow-up problems for your root, but you also want to 'deal' with the remaining young people?"

Listening to his confident tone, Shimura Danzo felt the anger rising to the top of his head. He slapped the table hard and shouted: "Why do you think I have to go to all the trouble to do this? It's not because of you.

Don’t lose those old guys from the ninja clan!”

"What could you have accomplished if I wasn't here?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice began to rise uncontrollably, and veins bulged on his forehead: "Then what did you do for the village? Did you kill twenty promising young ninjas with your own hands? Or did you bring shame to the village?

?”

"Not only this time, but also you in the Land of Earth during World War II."

"Those are necessary sacrifices!"

"What is necessary? Have you ever seen any child in the village who is more talented than Minato? He is also on this mission!"

"It's because of your weakness that he joined this mission! If I were Hokage, I would..."

Whether it is Sarutobi Hiruzen or Shimura Danzo, they both know each other very well.

During the twenty years they had governed together, the two people, who were both companions and close friends, had accumulated countless conflicts, which suddenly broke out because of this incident.

As old scores continue to be cleared up, the rhetoric becomes sharper.

They really know each other too well.

However, no matter how thickly they cover up their relationship on weekdays, it cannot change the differences in political philosophy between the two.

"Wait. Minato?"

During the argument, as if he suddenly realized something, Shimura Danzo suddenly frowned and asked, "Minato. Did you come back with that boy Aida Masaki?"

Seeing that his voice stopped, Sarutobi Hiruzen also subconsciously stopped talking and said in confusion:

"nature."

"Although his talent is outstanding, that kid Minato is not yet strong enough to handle a jinchūriki on his own."

Shimura Danzo's voice became more urgent: "Has he ever mentioned to you about the mole?"

"What's the meaning?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen also frowned.

Shimura Danzo said gloomily: "I buried a nail in the team of that boy Aida Masaki - to kill him."

"According to the report of the people I sent out to harvest, that nail once walked with Minato for a while."

"Did they say nothing to you?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent at first.

Gradually, his face began to look a little embarrassed.

Minato, in terms of seniority, should be his disciple.

It was supposed to be a direct lineage of the natural Hokage.

but

Did he betray his trust this time?

"Um."

Sarutobi Hiruzen replied with a heavy voice, then sat down slumped and picked up the cold tea beside the coffee table.

In the pipe, mist drifted away.

In the silence between the two of them, the bright skylight outside the window was reflected.

It's dawn.

As the sky dawned, there were many more people in the streets and alleys of Konoha.

Drinkers, showmen, gamblers, breakfast carts.

All kinds of hawking and shouting filled the silent dawn, making the village that woke up from the silence of the night a little more popular.

The Ninja Village mission posters who came from all over the country and stayed in the hotel for one night also hurried towards the Hokage Building, hoping to find a mission team that suits their wishes at a slightly cheaper price today.

.

Soon, the streets that were empty just now were filled with traffic again.

It seems to be like this every day.

However, today's Konoha Avenue has a bright color added to the popularity and noise.

"Click, click."

A man covered in bruises and almost soaked in blood, dragging a heavy body that was burnt to black with most of his body in his hand, making people doubt whether it was dead, walked straight towards the Hokage Building amidst sticky and bloody footsteps.

direction.

Everyone around him smelled the pungent smell and subconsciously stepped aside, looking at him in horror.

However, when he saw the Konoha forehead protector on his forehead, he showed a slightly puzzled look.

The ANBU ninjas who started working surrounded them one after another, but after taking a few steps closer, they subconsciously began to retreat.

On this man's body is a special garment made entirely of detonating talismans, like a vest.

These ANBU are not afraid of death, but the crowd around them is too dense.

The man seemed not to notice the ninjas around him, and his physical strength seemed to be exhausted to the limit.

The broken body was crawling forward almost entirely by willpower.

Until, it stopped at the entrance of the Hokage Building.

Tachibana Sakuta threw the body in his hand to the ground and straightened his back with difficulty.

The noise of the dense flow of people in front of the building seemed to have been pressed on the pause button in an instant.

He used the seal scroll in his hand as a crutch and punched it on the ground.

Complex sealing techniques spread out in all directions along the new scroll, immobilizing every customer within a radius of 500 meters.

Everyone looked at him in horror, not knowing why.

Tachibana Sakuta's difficult smile was full of sincerity:

"terribly sorry."

"I'm going to waste everyone's time."
