Ninja World

"you say..."

"An ANBU member who participated in the mission committed suicide in Konoha Hospital?"

The room fell into silence, and no one spoke for a long time.

You can hear everyone's breathing, which is slightly heavy.

One thing after another happened one after another, like an overwhelming net covering everything.

Makes you breathless.

It's getting further and further off the rails, and it's hard to clean up.

"Yes."

The ANBU ninja who came to report the situation lowered his head slightly.

They also couldn't understand why that person suddenly changed his appearance.

He was hysterically speaking incomprehensible words, and then suddenly committed suicide in front of everyone.

It further intensified the atmosphere at the scene to the extreme.

The crowd was furious.

"and..."

He clenched his fists.

What follows is the key point.

There is an invisible black hand behind this matter that is slowly pushing the development of the matter, so much so that even the dark force members who have undergone rigorous training and have a strong heart feel a little angry.

They are trying to get Sakumo-sama...

Forced towards death.

...

"The ANBU ninja code-named 'Fast Wing' even accused him in public before committing suicide..."

"I accuse Hatake Sakumo-sama of going his own way and leading to the failure of this mission."

The ANBU ninja knelt on one knee and slowly described what happened at that time.

A comrade who was seriously injured and tortured by the enemy to the point of dying was rescued and brought to Konoha Village for treatment and regained consciousness. He went crazy and accused Hatake Sakumo in public that he should not have come to save him.

Instead, the task should be completed.

"Ninjas should put their mission first."

"This is true even if we are captured."

Because he was rescued and caused more of his comrades to die on the battlefield, he felt guilty, so he jumped from the high-rise building of Konoha Hospital and ended his life.

It happened so suddenly that even the ANBU ninjas didn't expect that he would suddenly commit suicide.

In an instant, the ANBU ninjas and the rioting people below fell into a long silence.

Just like in the laboratory right now...

Except for the body lying on the experimental table that was already stiff...

Everyone present felt cold all over.

Even the rescued companions did not speak for Hatake Sakumo.

Instead, he was accused of violating the ninja rules and insisting on his own way, which led to such tragic results.

Adding insult to injury.

Then he stabbed his body which was already riddled with holes.

Forced to a dead end.

The mastermind behind the scenes is determined not to let Hatake Sakumo go easily.

Now he has gained notoriety, has shouldered a heavy responsibility, and even incited the people to exaggerate the threat of war.

And the Kingdom of Wind is not stingy with assists either.

Diplomatic letters have been sent to Konoha Hidden Village to protest the fact that Konoha sent ninjas into the Kingdom of Wind without authorization and killed a large number of ninjas in Sunagakure Village and civilians in the Kingdom of Wind.

...

Sarutobi Hiruzen smashed the table in front of him with one punch.

The documents on the table were scattered all over the floor, and the whole person looked like a volcano about to erupt.

"Tell Danzo Shimura to come see me quickly!"

bristle.

Along with the documents slowly falling down, a pair of dark eyes were filled with murderous intent, and then he said in a cold voice.

"Inform Uchiha Fugaku to come with him."

He took over as Hokage in his youth, healed the wounds left by the war, kept Konoha stable and harmonious for more than twenty years, and single-handedly pushed the village to its peak.

He hasn't been so angry for many years, and maybe some people have forgotten the name of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"yes."

The ANBU ninja kneeling on the ground was sweating under his mask. The hero of the ninja world has not yet aged. He is only in his fifties and is far from the time when he is old and frail.

Qi and blood are slightly less than the peak, but still at the peak of the sun.

Danzo Shimura was no weaker than anyone else, but faced with such a situation, the Third Hokage had to huddle underground and wait for the opportunity.

Being angry brings great pressure.

The chakra in the body began to roll and move, surging like a river.

It made his chest feel a little tight and he could hardly breathe.

His throat rolled slightly and he swallowed a mouthful of spit.

The ANBU ninja couldn't help but feel fear.

Then give him a slight bow.

Leave instantly.

...

You can hear rumors about this incident while walking on the street.

Uchiha Tatsu's expression was a little strange, and he lowered his eyes.

He was a witness to this mission, and he didn't know why Danzo Shimura sent him to participate in this mission. He... seemed to have no role.

Just went through the motions.

Gained a lot of experience.

Compared with Sakumo Hatake, who is currently in the spotlight...

Undoubtedly very lucky.

The target of public criticism.

He had not seen his teacher Orochimaru yet after returning from this mission, because Orochimaru had been busy with his experiments.

Orochimaru didn't allow him to see the experimental data book hanging on the wall, so Uchiha Tatsumi didn't read it.

But Orochimaru didn't hide it deliberately, and seemed to be sure that the boy wouldn't look at it.

But Uchiha Tatsu still glanced at him.

‘Wood Release’

'transplant'...

This experiment seems to be closely related to Mudun.

Then he withdrew his gaze.

Orochimaru's expression did not change at all, and he seemed to be just silently thinking about the breakthrough direction of the experiment.

He doesn't care much about external affairs either.

His face became even paler and strange.

"How's the harvest?"

Orochimaru didn't take his eyes off the test record, and then asked a question without thinking.

Uchiha Tatsu was silently looking through Orochimaru's training notes. He was slightly startled, and then he answered seriously.

"fine."

"kindness."

Orochimaru nodded slightly, then put down the notebook in his hand and hung it back on the wall.

Compared to before Uchiha Tatsu left, Orochimaru looked a little more haggard.

The golden eyes were dim, but they still fell on the young man, and then he spoke straightforwardly.

"I'm conducting an experiment..."

Uchiha Tatsumi's hand holding the note stiffened slightly.

"If it succeeds, it may be of great help to you."

Silence fell in the room.

"Next time."

Orochimaru nodded calmly, and he also thought that it was not a big surprise that Uchiha Tatsumi refused.

Uchiha Tatsu was still wary of him, and the current experimental survival rate was zero, with no one surviving. He did not want the Third Hokage and the Uchiha family to cause trouble for him.

He had been warned by the Third Hokage before.

And he also promised not to take action against Uchiha Tatsumi.

He has other plans...

This matter is not very urgent, after all, it is just a bold conjecture.

At present, experiments are still in the stage of how the human body can withstand it.

The conditions of the experimental subjects are not very good, and most of them have died.

Only the last few babies are still alive in the nutrient solution.

They are all expectations now.
