Chapter 98 Takigakure Village

Along with the bodies of the fallen ninjas, news of the missing Sakin was also sent back.

Hiruzen immediately sent someone to deliver the body to the Intelligence Department and handed it over to the current head of the Intelligence Department, Yamanaka Koichi.

The Yamanaka Clan can not only extract intelligence from the brains of living people, but also from the brains of corpses.

Outside the torture chamber, Danzo and Mito Kado En sat on chairs in the corridor, quietly waiting for news from inside.

After moving his right arm, Danzo subconsciously looked at the needle hole on his hand.

Orochimaru came to the office early in the morning and said that he wanted to make some preparations for Danzo to be vaccinated with Hashirama's cells.

Then he pulled himself into the laboratory and got an IV without saying a word.

According to him, this is cell fluid made from the Uzumaki clan's and Tobirama's cells.

Used to improve Danzo's physical condition in order to reach the standard that can be inoculated with Hashirama's cells.

I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect, but after finishing one bottle, the amount of chakra seems to have actually increased.

I just feel a dull pain in my meridians all over my body, and I don't know if it's a side effect.

The two waited for a long time until they saw through the glass window that Yamanaka Koichi took his hand off the head of the corpse.

Then he stood up.

As the two stood up, the door on the side slowly opened.

A ninja from the Intelligence Department appeared and respectfully invited Danzo and the others to come in.

"How is it? Koichi."

Mito Kabuto was the first to speak.

Danzo looked at Mito Kado En, who was walking in front of him even with a cane, and curled his lips, not caring.

He walked to the side slowly without changing his pace.

Seeing Danzo approaching, Koichi pretended not to notice Mito Kado En's ugly expression and then spoke.

"The body was already somewhat decomposed, so I didn't get much information. However, I did see the figure of one of the attackers..."

After saying this, Yamanaka Gongyi hesitated for a moment before continuing.

"The attacker was wearing the forehead protector of Takigakure Village."

......

After getting the portrait of the attacker, Danzo and the other man immediately informed Hiruzen of the incident.

"It's Takinin?"

After learning the identity of the attacker, Hiruzen's first reaction was that it was impossible.

The ninjas of Takigakure have always been peaceful and have always stayed in their own little corner of the country. They did not participate in the two Ninja World Wars.

They maintain good relations with all the villages, so how could they send people to attack their own transport team?

And where did they get the news?

Danzo also rarely shouted.

He thought the same as Hiruzen, this was not like the style of Takigakure Village.

"No matter what, we must send someone with the portrait to Takigakure to hold them accountable."

Mizutomon En gave a pertinent suggestion.

"Whether it is a ninja from their village, their village chief will know it clearly."

After hearing Mitomon En's suggestion, Hiruzen pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

This is indeed the most appropriate solution at the moment.

Danzo also agreed in his heart.

The Takigakure Village is different from the Kusagakure Village. The Seven-Tails is sealed in their village. If it is not handled properly, it will lead to extremely serious consequences.

Even if it is confirmed that the perpetrators are indeed this group of Taki ninjas, we still have to make a detailed plan.

We cannot crush them with strength like we did with the Kusagakure Village.

It would be nice if Kushina was the perfect Jinchūriki.

This thought suddenly popped into Danzo's mind.

Ever since Kushina became the Jinchūriki, not only has her area of ​​activity been restricted to the barrier.

He is accompanied by two Anbu ninjas who are skilled in sealing techniques all day long.

Hiruzen specifically pulled out two sealing squads and had them take turns following the other side.

Even so, Kushina lost control twice.

Fortunately, the action was taken in time and no major losses were caused.

Finally, after discussion among the three, they decided to send Hatake Sakumo, who had just returned to the village, to lead a team to Takigakure Village for questioning.

Danzo also dispatched the Root's intelligence team to infiltrate Taki no Kuni to investigate the incident.

......

Inside the Root base, at the friendly invitation of Danzo, Hatake Sakumo is teaching Ringo Ayuri.

This matter was something Danzo had thought about carefully.

Looking throughout the entire Konoha Village, the only one who is qualified to teach this Lightning Release genius is Hatake Sakumo.

In addition, Sakumo himself is also proficient in swordsmanship, so the two of them can be said to complement each other.

The result was just as Danzo had expected, under Sakumo's guidance.

Ringo Ayuri's growth rate is astonishingly fast. Even without relying on the Thunder Sword, her strength can reach the level of a Chunin.

Danzo looked at the two people who were practicing swordsmanship on the training ground with satisfaction.

Noticing Danzo's arrival, Sakumo asked Ringo Ayuri to continue training while he came in front of Danzo.

"Thank you for your hard work, Sakumo."

Seeing Sakumo approaching, Danzo smiled.

"Nothing, Master Danzo, I also want to thank you for finding me such an excellent disciple."

Smiling and shaking his head, Shuomao liked this little guy very much. In terms of talent and understanding, he was no worse than his own son.

"I have to thank you too. Without Yuyuri, Kakashi would have been so proud of himself."

Sakumo knew that Kakashi was not only extremely talented, but also extremely harsh on him.

But there has always been a sense of pride in his heart.

It's a good opportunity to use Yuyuri to temper Kakashi's temper.

The result was exactly as Sakumo had expected, after several sparring matches with Yu Yuri with no clear winner.

Kakashi practiced even harder than usual, and every day he dragged Obito with him to climb mountains with one arm.

Obito is almost bald from all the training.

Obito: Thank you.

"Hokage-sama has a mission for you."

The two exchanged a few brief greetings before Danzo got down to business.

"You should be aware of the attack on the transport team some time ago."

Sakumo nodded to show that he understood.

When this happened, he had just returned from Kusagakure Village.

"We have already obtained information from Koichi. The attacker is most likely Taki-nin."

"Taki-nin?"

Unlike others, Sakumo did not show much emotion after hearing that the culprit was most likely Takinin.

Danzo was very pleased with this reaction.

"Huruzen has decided to send you to lead a team to Takigakure Village. The first thing to do is to determine if the attacker is a Taki-nin."

"Report to the village immediately after confirmation. I also have a special mission for you."

"Please tell me."

As the Hokage's advisor, Danzo is indeed qualified to give tasks to Sakumo.

"Find out where Nanao is now."
