Konoha's Itachi Reappearance

Chapter 323 Difficulties
318 chapter

In Hokage's office, there were many file files on the desk in front of Minato.

His golden brows were tightly frowned, and he looked up at the middle-aged man in front of him.

This person is from the kingdom of ghosts.

The country of ghosts is an inconspicuous small country in the ninja world. There is no ninja village in the country. Except for daimyo, the most noble people are called witches.

The source of the title of witch is related to a disaster that almost destroyed the world many years ago.

At that time, a monster called sprite suddenly appeared in the world. The ninja who wanted to dominate the world used its power to create an army of immortality, almost pushing the mainland to the brink of destruction.

Until that time, Maitreya, the maiden in the kingdom of ghosts, used powerful ninjutsu to separate and seal the sprite's body and soul.

The sprite's soul was sealed in the underground palace of the ghost country, and the body was sealed in the ancestral hall of the marsh country.

The priestess of this generation of ghost country is called Shion, and she is less than ten years old this year.

And the middle-aged man who appeared in front of Minato was the servant of the Miko.

A few days ago, two unidentified mysterious people attacked the Miko's residence and took Shion away.

The purpose of these two mysterious people is obvious, it should be for the power of monsters.

The miko of the kingdom of ghosts has the ability to seal monsters.

So if she is caught, after the sprite is resurrected, there will be no way to check and balance.

But Watergate doesn't think things will be that simple.

The reason is simple, if you are afraid of Ziyuan's ability to seal the sprites, just kill her directly.

Among them, there must be some reason that he doesn't know.

In addition, Minato is also very concerned about the mysterious person who took Shion away.

With only two people, the other party easily abducted the target under the heavily guarded priestess' residence.

This is definitely not something ordinary ninjas can do.

There are not many people with this level on the most wanted list of the five major ninja countries.
Under such thinking, Itachi was immediately summoned to Hokage's office, and Minato told him what happened in the ghost country and the legend of sprites.

After hearing this, Itachi frowned deeply, and said, "You should be suspecting that it was Akatsuki who kidnapped the witches of the Ghost Country, right?"

Judging from the records in the file, the power of sprites is indeed extremely terrifying, but it is by no means unstoppable.

The ninjutsu used by the witches in the ghost country should be the sealing technique.

As far as the sealing technique is concerned, the Uzumaki clan is undoubtedly the strongest.

There is no doubt that the enemy's goal is the power of monsters, but several days have passed since Miko Shion was kidnapped, and there has been no change in the kingdom of ghosts and the country of marsh.

This shows that the other party is still waiting for something.

In today's ninja world, besides the masters of the five ninja kingdoms, the most likely person who has the ability to easily abduct the shrine maiden is Akatsuki, who has gathered a large number of S-level rebellious ninjas.

"They want to use the power of monsters to increase the power of the organization. There is only one explanation."

Itachi said in a deep voice, the battle in Urenin Village was a duel between Akatsuki and Konoha's top masters. In that battle, it could be regarded as Konoha's small victory.

So in Akatsuki's plan, the current Konoha is the biggest enemy, but that organization has almost gathered the most dangerous people from all over the world in recent years.

It is not easy to recruit other members and expand the strength of the organization.

That's why they set their sights on the sprites with great power.

However, the people in the Akatsuki organization are very smart. At present, it seems that they have no plans to use sprites to create an undead army.

Because in this way, it will not only attract Konoha's attention, but also attract the joint power of the other four kingdoms of earth, thunder, wind, and water. This is something that the masked man, Nagato and others are absolutely unwilling to face.

"We must not allow them to obtain the power of sprites smoothly."

Itachi's face was slightly dignified. The last time Konoha's investigation of Yuren Village caused the other party to lose their base camp.

He and Minato had long expected that the Dingxiao organization would make a comeback, and at that time it would inevitably retaliate against the village.

The power of sprites is undoubtedly a huge threat to the village.

"That's right, so we must immediately dispatch our forces to the Sealed Shrine of the Marsh Country and the Underground Palace of the Ghost Country"

Minato said hesitantly.

Itachi shook his head and said, "I'm afraid this is their real purpose."

"Distribute the power of the village."

This is exactly Minato's idea, and it is also where he is struggling now.

Because according to their experience of fighting Akatsuki several times, if the other party didn't deliberately release the water, it would be impossible for the retainers of the witches in the country of ghosts to come to Konoha.

The priestess who kidnapped the kingdom of ghosts was not afraid of her power at all, but just to send a signal to Konoha.

The Akatsuki organization wants to use the sprites, but Konoha Ninja must send a master out of the village if he wants to prevent them from resurrecting the sprites.

Ordinary ninjas can't deal with the group of guys organized by Akatsuki.

But in this way, the defense of the village is weak, and Akatsuki will definitely take this opportunity to attack.

Maybe Konoha can ignore it, so they can only watch Akatsuki get the power of the sprite.

Akatsuki placed a problem in front of Minato and Konoha.

"No matter what, we have to act. Passively watching the opponent accumulate strength will only make it more difficult in the end."

Itachi said, because he had noticed that besides the scrolls about the kingdom of ghosts and monsters, there were other materials on the table in Hokage's office.

In this ninja world, apart from tailed beasts, there must be existences similar to sprites.

And the sprite itself makes Itachi a bit concerned, because it comes from another world
If the Akatsuki organization obtained the power of these monsters in the world and used them to attack Konoha in the future, I don't know how passive the situation would be at that time.

Minato nodded, and that was exactly what he was thinking.

It's just that if you allocate personnel to go to the country of swamps and the country of ghosts, you need to leave enough power in the village to deal with possible attacks.

This is a huge problem.

"Actually, this is not only a problem for us, but also for Akatsuki's guys."

Itachi Road, think about it differently, the opponent must also deal with the masters from Konoha carefully, and must also have enough power to threaten the entire Konoha Village.

But there is actually a lot of guesswork in this, because when both sides have equal information, the distribution of strength is undoubtedly a psychological game.

Both sides also have ninjas who are proficient in time and space ninjutsu, and can make adjustments at any time.

Itachi suddenly said to Minato: "I guess Nagato will definitely show up in the kingdom of ghosts, the palace where the spirits of sprites are sealed."
