Chapter 82 Kakashi: Compared to becoming stronger, face is not worth mentioning
Chapter 82 Kakashi: Compared to becoming stronger, face is not worth mentioning
Through the window, Kyouhiko soon saw Danzo leaving the room in a huff.
Come with excitement and leave with disappointment.
Without even thinking, he could guess what the situation was. It was nothing more than another "you regret, I'm the Hokage" kind of drama. Fortunately, it was only him and the Third Hokage.
When leaving, Danzo glanced towards the Jonin waiting room.
The two looked at each other and then parted.
After a while, Sarutobi Hiruzen arrived.
Inside the house, Sarutobi Hiruzen took him to a small room inside the waiting room. This room was isolated from the inside and the outside and was very secretive. It was usually where important tasks were issued.
"Jingyan, there is a task that requires your cooperation to complete."
"Please tell me."
Jingyan nodded.
Since Sarutobi Hiruzen asked him to stay on standby, he guessed that it might be an important mission, so he was not too surprised.
The third generation took out the intelligence scroll.
It was opened on the table, and on it was a scroll containing some information about "Hashirama's cell research", including information about "A", his location, who was probably in charge of the base, etc.
Jingyan read it carefully.
At the same time, Sarutobi Hiruzen was also observing secretly.
If it was an ordinary child, he would never give this information to the other party, let alone let the other party participate in such a level of commission, but Jing Yan...
He wanted to see what the child was like.
After reading it, Jingyan closed the scroll.
Does the third generation want to take "A" into his own hands?
Or, he has a new solution to the problem of "A".
For example, let "A" learn and study "immortality" from an early age.
In this case, it is indeed impossible for him to continue to stay in Danzo's hands. As for why he was handed over to me...
Are you afraid that Danzo has spies in the Anbu?
Sarutobi Hiruzen put away the scroll.
"Are you interested?"
"Yes, there are, but there are so many ANBU ninjas, why let me go?"
Jingyan pretended not to know.
Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed.
"Perhaps you can't understand. Although I am the Hokage, I cannot completely control the Anbu. Danzo has many spies there. He will know immediately if the Anbu moves."
"If you want to execute something from top to bottom, you need coordination and cooperation from every link. That's the role of a team. Even if you are the Hokage, you can't accomplish anything by yourself."
Jingyan replied calmly.
His character has been established, so he no longer needs to play dumb.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, I forgot... Well, anyway, I hope this matter can be carried out by someone who is capable enough but will not attract Danzo's attention."
"Are you sure I'm not on Danzo's radar?"
Jingyan was very rude.
"I will make some arrangements. Of course, this requires the cooperation of you and Tsunade."
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked serious.
Then, he sighed, "I may have different opinions from Jiraiya, Tsunade, and you, but we are all for Konoha, and we will not cause fighting or civil strife because of this. I used to think of Danzo in this way, but now he disappoints me."
Jingyan remained silent.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's image on his side is that of a power monster.
He is definitely stronger than Danzo, but you can only believe half of what he says.
Just like Danzo.
Doesn't Sarutobi Hiruzen understand Danzo?
We have been partners for many years!
Sarutobi Hiruzen probably understands Danzo's nature better than Danzo himself.
True ignorance is stupid, false ignorance is bad.
Jingyan even believed that Sarutobi Hiruzen used Danzo as a black glove and chose to discard it when it was no longer needed.
"Are you willing to accept the mission?"
"You have too little information. You don't have any information about the specific strength, personnel composition, or internal conditions of the Root Base. It's hard for me to guarantee that I can find him, but I will try my best."
Kyouhiko replied, "Besides, Danzo, I am no match for him."
He is self-aware.
His current strength is not weak, but compared with Danzo, there is still a big gap.
If Danzo was at the base, he wouldn't stand a chance of winning.
"He will stay in Konoha today and tomorrow, so you don't have to worry. As for the intelligence issue, I will send someone to help you."
"Yes."
……
After leaving the Hokage Building, Jingyan met his "assistant" at home.
It was none other than Kakashi.
"I guessed it was you."
"Go quickly and come back soon."
Kakashi formed seals with his hands and transformed into the appearance of Kyouhiko.
Jingyan chuckled, then leaned against the wall and listened carefully to the situation around him.
after a while.
"I'm leaving now. You can pick some of the books upstairs to read. They should be useful."
"This……"
Kakashi was about to refuse.
"I read every day. If you don't read, won't it be exposed?"
"it is good."
Kakashi watched as Kyouhiko instantly left.
The so-called "exposing the truth" was just an excuse for him to accept it with a clear conscience.
but.
He hesitated for just a moment and then went upstairs.
The Second Hokage's Notes.
Even if they are just some basics, they are very valuable treasures. If they can make me stronger and play a greater role in future missions and battles, what's wrong with accepting the gift?
Like the past few days, being weak and helpless, and having no choice but to let your companions choose to compromise, is the most tragic thing.
He doesn't want to be the one being rescued again!
Walking upstairs, Kakashi glanced around and saw that there were quite a few books piled on the bookshelf on the left, while there were relatively few on the other side, and the notes on the titles were relatively new.
"Is this Jingyan's research notebook?"
Kakashi recognized the handwriting of the writing.
He glanced at the books and knew from the titles that they were probably Jingyan's ninjutsu notes.
He decided not to read the secrets involving Jingyan.
Kakashi glanced around and looked at Senju Tobirama's notes.
Under Jingyan's arrangement, the books on the bookshelf have been classified into four categories: ninjutsu, swordsmanship, illusion and taijutsu, with some miscellaneous notes at the very edge.
He reached for the "Ninjutsu" column.
……
night.
In a forest not too far from Konoha, a mountain village and temple appeared before our eyes.
Qianlin Temple.
According to Sarutobi Hiruzen's description, this wild temple is the entrance to "A"'s base, and there are many mechanisms and traps underneath.
but.
The helper that Sarutobi Hiruzen mentioned did not appear.
Jingyan waited for a while, but there was no sign of anyone showing up, so he decided not to wait any longer.
He stayed close to the ground, using chakra to enhance his hearing.
After a long while, Jingyan heard faint footsteps coming from underground.
northeast.
Underground behind the temple.
In addition, there were some footsteps above the temple.
There are a lot of people patrolling!
He bit his finger, formed seals with his hands, and contracted the chakra output.
After a while, a small toad emerged.
Kyohiko doesn't know Jiraiya's infiltration technique, but the little toad is obviously more secretive than a human, and can at least deceive some ninjas who don't know about the toads of Myoboku Mountain.
He whispered, "Help me find the underground entrance to the temple ahead."
Toad nodded.
Jingyan moved forward instantly, and in a few seconds, he was lurking above the temple and placed the little toad on the roof.
The little toad jumped all the way over.
There are dense grass and many small animals in the wild temple, but a toad is not that noticeable.
Jingyan used the transformation technique to transform and hide, listening to the rhythmic jumping sounds below.
His enhanced hearing allows him to hear even the slightest movements and sounds at relatively long distances.
After a while.
"In the main hall, there is an entrance behind the stone statue."
A few minutes later.
laugh!
A black shadow flashed above, and a patrolling ninja fell silently and was dragged into the shadow.
After a while, two people walked out of the shadows.
One is an ordinary-looking ninja.
The other one is the appearance of the Root Organization ninja just now.
Jingyan couldn't search for them one by one, so -
The best solution is to let the people below to mess around on their own and let "A" come out from inside.
This is a method of alerting the snake by stirring up trouble.
He let his clone hide, and the transformed body maintained the previous route and continued to follow the patrol.
Then, some time passed.
"what!"
A scream came from the corner.
Jingyan sprang into action and rushed into the hall, where a man holding a knife immediately appeared.
"who are you?"
"There are people invading from outside, their sword skills are very strong, we..."
As soon as Jing Yan finished speaking, there was a whistling sound of wind behind him, and a blade was already slashing towards him.
The next moment, the man who had blocked him immediately blocked with a knife.
"who are you?"
"Hand over 'A', or I'll kill you all!"
The clone's voice was deep.
Jingyan quickly ran towards the passage.
There was a loud battle in the hall.
He ran all the way inside, shouting "Oh no, someone is trying to steal Jia."
Chaos soon ensued underground.
Jingyan hid in the dark and waited quietly.
After a while, the members of the Root Organization quickly ran outside and didn't notice him hiding at all.
"The root tissue is still very immature!"
"Too……"
Jingyan listened quietly to the noise outside, carefully distinguishing every chaotic sound.
however.
There are too many movements, and it is still quite difficult to distinguish which one belongs to "A" from them.
Also, where are the helpers that the third generation mentioned?
As he was thinking, the sound of insects chirping came closer.
Ok?
wrong!
Just as Jingyan was about to draw his sword, the bugs regrouped and transformed into one person.
"it's me."
"Senior Zhiwei?"
Jingyan was surprised. In front of him was Aburame Shiwei, whom he had not seen for a while.
Oil Girl Zhiwei nodded.
"You were sent by the Hokage, right?"
He couldn't help but admire: "You can find the passage by yourself, and come up with such a method to force them to move on their own and force A out... If you are the only one, this is indeed the best way."
"Thank you, senior. I am just doing my best."
Jingyan remained polite.
Aburame Shiwei said, "I have found him, you follow me."
Then he went deeper into the base.
Jingyan quickly followed.
Not long after--
"you……"
"Don't do it! We're on our own!"
Kyohiko whispered, holding up his hands to show he had no weapon.
Upon hearing this, the other party immediately drew his knife.
The next moment, he saw the other party waving his hands and making strange seals with his other hand. His vision immediately became blurred, as if several people were rushing towards him.
not good!
It's an illusion!
He immediately lifted the illusion, but—
The other party had already grabbed his throat, suddenly increased his strength, and then stabbed him in the heart.
Aburame Zhiwei, who was standing by, was shocked.
An illusion?
A magic technique of forming a seal with one hand...
When did Konoha's Anbu produce such a master of illusion!
Who is this young man?
Aburame Shiwei racked his brains but couldn't match Jingyan with any of the Anbu. He was suspicious but didn't ask. He just led the way silently.
Then, he killed three people in a row.
"Senior Zhiwei, don't you have a better route?"
Jingyan was speechless.
"No, he is being guarded by Aburame Ryoma and Danzo's confidants. This is the only way to find him."
Aburame Shiwei said.
"Then what else is hidden?"
Jing Yan immediately walked to the front and said, "If they don't come out, you check for traps and we'll charge in together!"
"..."
The oil girl was speechless.
At this time, he raised his finger and the worm returned to his body. Then, Aburame Shiwei was very surprised and said in surprise: "Are you Jingyan?"
How can it be!
Although Jingyan has been promoted to Jonin, how could he receive a mission of this level at such a young age?
"Yes."
Jingyan nodded.
Aburame Shiwei was in disbelief, but judging from the feedback from the Yoshibaitsugu, this was Kyohiko's chakra aura.
Appearance can be changed, aura can be hidden, but chakra is very difficult to fake.
No matter how hard it was for him to believe it, he had no choice but to accept it.
No wonder this guy keeps calling me senior...
There are not many people younger than himself in the Anbu, and there are even fewer people who possess such level of illusion and swordsmanship. It seems that an external aid has arrived.
"Are you confident?"
"Believe me, if there are only Aburame Ryoma and another confidant in the base, we can just kill them, rob them and run away. Why are we hiding?!"
Jingyan is very confident.
He had fought against Aburame Ryoma last time.
That guy is good at lurking and assassination, but he is not a big threat in a head-on battle. This time he has the help of Aburame Shiwei, which is a huge advantage.
There is that hidden skill...
Those who were transferred outside are probably going to come back!
Aburame Shiwei nodded immediately.
The two no longer hide.
Soon, the parasitic worm cleared a path and destroyed the trap, and the two of them moved forward.
Afterwards, a dozen Root Organization members came over from various passages and surrounded the front in layers.
Aburame Shiwei raised her hand and was about to use the parasitic bug to clear the way.
The next moment, Jing Yan formed a seal with one hand, raised his hand, and drew his sword——
Three short moves.
Konoha Style·Ryanoo!
In the eyes of the Root Organization members, dozens of figures were rushing towards them at an extremely fast speed.
however.
In fact, the swarm overwhelmed them instantly.
Jingyan instantly killed one person.
Immediately, the blade was sheathed, and he and Aburame Shiwei continued to rush forward, invincible all the way inside.
Aburame Shiwei was inwardly amazed.
After seeing through the opponent's methods, he felt that Jing Yan's illusion was not very complicated or sophisticated, but it was abrupt.
One hand seal.
Any movement of the other hand may lead to an illusion, which is impossible to guard against.
even.
If he didn't have a parasite, he might have fallen into the illusion just now.
Where did this guy learn this?
Sunset red?
The relationship between the two is so good?
Aburame Zhiwei remained silent on the surface, but she was constantly speculating and pondering in her heart.
As they went deeper into the area, many Root members followed them but were unable to catch up with them.
When we got to the location that Aburame Shiwei mentioned—
Aburame Ryoma and his men escaped through the back door that had been disguised before, leaving behind a large area of detonating tags.
"boom!"
……
A few minutes later, on a hill.
When Aburame Ryoma heard the violent explosion, a smile appeared on his face.
Behind him, a female ninja grabbed "A", a trace of sadness flashed across her face, and then she said worriedly: "The base was bombed, our people..."
"It is their honor to devote themselves to the adults' cause."
Aburame Ryoma replied indifferently.
Then, he turned his head and glanced at the female kunoichi from the corner of his eyes.
"Let's go."
As soon as he finished speaking, his expression suddenly turned ugly.
Immediately, his figure suddenly split into pieces and turned into a swarm of insects.
The parasites spread in all directions and turned into a huge wall.
however.
In the dark night, a black fog came.
Buzz!
This is a showdown of bugs.
Aburame Ryoma looked grim: "It's you!"
"Aburame Ryoma, you actually followed Danzo!"
Aburame Zhiwei said.
"Humph."
Aburame Ryoma snorted coldly.
Then he whispered, "Let's go!"
"Yes!"
The female ninja behind him picked up "A" and ran away.
Aburame Shiwei looked unhappy.
"You want to keep making the same mistake?"
"Who says that adults are wrong? Konoha needs roots and darkness. Everyone is working for the future of Konoha. You are too narrow-minded, especially Hokage..."
Aburame Ryoma's tone became increasingly high-pitched and worshipful, "He doesn't understand that adult at all!"
As he spoke, the parasitic bug exploded and rushed towards Aburame Zhiwei.
This is a showdown between parasites.
Win!
Aburame Ryoma is determined.
He didn't think he would lose to Aburame Shiwei, especially since the opponent had consumed a lot of chakra and insects on the way here.
not to mention.
As long as the other party cannot get "A", they are successful.
The advantage is mine!
Aburame Ryoma was full of confidence, but soon his expression changed from confident to ugly, and then to livid.
Something happened back there!
……
"Don't you dare stop me!"
"For Danzo-sama!"
The female ninja's tone was firm, but after she formed seals with her hands, medical ninjutsu emerged from her hands.
Chakra scalpel!
Jing Yan glanced at it and frowned slightly.
Yakushi Nonou?
No.
She probably doesn't have this name yet.
If it's really her, then I can get some help...
Jingyan put away his murderous intent.
The moment the opponent rushed over, he slowly drew out his sword, formed a seal with one hand, and danced his arms like willow branches.
Then...
Several figures separated from Jingyan's body and rushed towards her at an extremely fast speed, reaching her almost instantly.
So fast!
The female ninja was shocked and immediately slashed around with her hands.
however.
The figure she cut was only a trace of afterimage.
Is it the art of clones?
Dance of the Three Moons?
Thinking quickly, she immediately drew out her kunai and used it to block.
but……
Still empty!
how come?
No, it's an illusion!
Pharmacist Nono immediately lifted the illusion and restored her vision, but the other party had already arrived in front of her, with his hand on her forehead.
Bang!
She was knocked to the ground by the blow and passed out.
On the other side, Jia also broke the illusion. He clasped his hands together and wood grew out from under Jingyan's feet.
but.
The blade was unsheathed and cut through all the wood in an instant.
What a quick knife!
Jia was frightened and was about to change his tactics, using Wood Release to protect himself and wait for rescue, but the opponent had already appeared in front of him in an instant and hit him on the forehead with the handle of the knife.
Before he fell into a coma, he faintly heard...
"It seems like I used too much force, but it's just a slight concussion, it's not a big problem."
There was only one thought in his mind.
The voice is so young.
Like...
Not much older than him.
A fell into a complete coma.
Jingyan created a shadow clone and asked him to look after the two of them, then went to support Aburame Shiwei.
