Starting the fourth generation Hokage

A few minutes later, Namikaze Minato slowly walked out of Sarutobi Ryohei's mansion and then breathed a sigh of relief.

If nothing unexpected happens, Sarutobi Asuma will set off the next day to take up a post in the Daming Mansion. Although I didn't see him today, Asuma will still go to the Hokage Building to confirm his appointment before leaving tomorrow, and he will also have to go through some other procedures.

Until then, just give some guidance to the second son of the Third Hokage who is in his rebellious stage.

After arranging matters related to the guardian ninja, Namikaze Minato looked at the time and it seemed that the appointed time had arrived. With a thought, he immediately used the flying thunder god technique and appeared on the roof of the Hokage building.

When he arrived, there were two ANBU members waiting on the roof.

"Hokage-sama."

"Lord Hokage..."

When Hatake Kakashi and another ANBU man wearing a patterned mask noticed the appearance of Namikaze Minato, they immediately turned their heads and bowed.

In early winter, the weather is slightly cold.

There were gusts of cold wind blowing from time to time on the roof of the building, and the white Hokage robe worn by Namikaze Minato could be considered to be somewhat protective against the cold.

"Thank you for your hard work, Kakashi, Asano."

Namikaze Minato walked forward with a smile and glanced at the two of them.

Both of them belong to the first ANBU team. Kakashi is now the team leader. As for this young man named Asano, he is the squad leader of a certain class in the first team. Both of them were secretly rescued overnight by Namikaze Minato. Recall the village.

Running all the way made the two of them look a little tired.

Because of the special nature of Anbu and the current situation, as Anbu, they are accustomed to this. There is probably only one person who has the easiest time in ANBU today.

That is Qing in special circumstances...

After the ceremony, Namikaze Minato got straight to the point and said: "First of all, I would like to state that what I am going to say next and the tasks that are about to be assigned to you are all top secret."

"Regardless of the success or failure of the mission and the results, no trace of it must be leaked."

"Which... also includes the entire process of executing the mission..."

After hearing this, Kakashi and Chaoyangye didn't have any disturbance in their hearts.

After all, being in the ANBU, most of the tasks they come into contact with are like this. But when they heard Namikaze Minato's follow-up and even said that even the process of executing the mission must be kept secret, they had to be a little surprised.

This is obviously to guard against one's own people...

ANBU members usually follow the principle of stealth during missions, but this mission actually emphasizes this point.

One has to wonder what kind of mission it is that even the people around him need to be on guard against.

Probably guessing what they were thinking, Namikaze Minato continued to say seriously: "What I want to give you are two different tasks, but for safety reasons, you also need to act together."

"Kakashi's mission is to secretly investigate the identity of the person responsible for receiving and delivering intelligence at the Kumogakure border."

"As for Chaoyang Ye, I heard that you were specially transferred from the roots to the ANBU by the Third Generation Master because of your excellent intelligence gathering ability, so I want you to sneak into Yunyin Village and detect whether the Yun Ninjas are preparing for war..."

After Hatake Kakashi and Asaharano listened to what Namikaze Minato said about the mission, they both looked sluggish at the same time. Kakashi didn't feel any weird, and immediately accepted the order.

Asahi Ye seemed to be hesitant and couldn't help but asked cautiously: "Hokage-sama, isn't this kind of espionage work the responsibility of Danzo-sama, the leader of the Roots?"

"How could it happen suddenly..."

Chaoyangye felt a little uneasy inside.

When it comes to spy work, many years ago, that was his specialty.

He was trained in espionage abilities when he was six or seven years old, and worked as a spy ninja for nearly ten years. Until he became an adult, because he was tired of this kind of work, and because he had the talent to become an excellent ninja, he turned to become a spy ninja. A fighting ninja.

The reason why he was a little uneasy was naturally because he could feel the importance of the latent mission assigned to him by Namikaze Minato.

However, he has long refused to be a spy ninja, and his abilities have been lacking for many years.

Being suddenly pulled out at this time will inevitably lead to a lack of confidence. That’s why I feel uneasy and at the same time curious why this kind of work is not left to the intelligence agencies.

This question, of course, also confused Namikaze Minato.

After hesitating for a moment, he could only prevaricate: "The intelligence department is currently short of manpower. In recent days, there have been rumors that the identity of the Konoha spy responsible for lurking in the Kumo ninja has been exposed, and it is very possible that he has been incited to rebel."

"That's why Kakashi is needed to conduct a secret investigation. At the same time, for military intelligence needs, Kumogakure's internal actions at this time must be known as soon as possible."

"...So that's it." After hearing this, Chao Yangye finally realized.

However, after understanding the importance of the task entrusted to him, he immediately felt the burden and pressure on him.

Afterwards, Namikaze Minato and Kakashi Asaharano repeatedly told them some details that needed to be paid attention to during the mission, and after ensuring absolute confidentiality, they finalized their departure time, which was also on the second day.

A few minutes later, in front of Namikaze Minato, Kakashi and Asaharano used the teleportation technique and disappeared.

After they left, Namikaze Minato on the roof of the Hokage Building slowly turned his head and turned his gaze to the streets of the village in the distance.

However, he still felt a little worried and uneasy in his heart at this time.

Kakashi and Asahi Ye who were sent out were naturally trustworthy, but it was hard to say whether they could complete the mission of this trip.

Although both of them are elites in the Anbu, there is a high probability that Chaoyang Ye can be qualified for spy missions. Find out for yourself whether there are any signs that Kumogakure is ready to fight against Konoha and Iwa Ninja.

However, Kakashi's task of investigating the root information and connecting with the ninjas was indeed very difficult.

That's the root of Danzo.

With their strict discipline and methods of almost erasing personality, it is definitely not an easy task for such people to expose Danzo's secrets.

Root's extreme secrecy towards its internal members is not only reflected in the mental aspects of brainwashing.

Physical means also seem to have a layer of insurance.

Continuously recalling the information about Danzo and his root department in his memory, Namikaze Minato suddenly thought of another problem that seemed to have to be solved.

That's Danzo's Tongue-Breaking Seal. With this extreme secrecy ninjutsu, even if the person who concealed information for Danzo is caught, it seems useless if he can't break the technique...
