Chapter 182 Ambush
After several days of preparation, Sarutobi Hiruzen finally took care of the matter that should be dealt with, and also reported the matter to the fire country daimyo through Anbu.

Xia Yan also cooperated well with Sarutobi Hiruza for this, and he asked Xueying Qianshouyang to set off in person, and he also got relevant information.

"Only me and Hiruzaru Sarutobi set off, and the road we walked was not a big road. It seems that this old man is really low-key and careful."

Xia Yan looked at the information in his hands and couldn't help but nodded slightly. This is considered a good thing, and sometimes it is not so good to be too high-profile.

Although what he did afterwards would definitely not be high-profile, but before the matter broke out completely, it was necessary to keep a low profile.

Because in this way, we can avoid agitating others, and you must know that the daimyo always wants to re-dominate the country of fire, not just the money bag of Konoha Village alone!

The existence of the Guardian Ninja Twelve is to some extent a preparation for getting rid of Konoha's control.

Even though Hokage's attitude towards Daimyo is very respectful now, in essence, he secretly doesn't take him seriously at all, and Daimyo knows it well.

"Could it be that the collection of Nine-Tails Chakra actually involved the daimyo behind him?"

Xia Yan mentally guessed, but he just thought about it, because he didn't care what kind of answer it would be!
The daimyo is indeed the nominal commander of the Land of Fire, but it is a pity that he cannot control the huge army of Konoha Village at all.

After all, the ninja world is still the world of ninjas. You cannot control the huge army of ninjas. Even if you have an army composed of many ordinary people, it is actually useless.

Therefore, they got rid of the shackles of being controlled by Konoha, and then began to restrict the development of Konoha's economy, or control the economic lifeline of Konoha Village.

In the end, when everything is actually mature, it is definitely not impossible to go this way after negotiating and getting back the control of Muye Village.

Just imagine, when your basic necessities of life are all controlled by one person, even your job is the same, so will it be too late for you to be controlled?
But it is a pity that the people in the original book and Ma broke up because of a split within them.

And the daimyo has always been just a money bag, and this has not changed for the better.

"Since there is no change, it is not a big deal for me to destroy you in advance."

Thinking in this way, Xia Yan has already arrived in the living room, and Qianshou Lianhua is putting away breakfast in the living room.

Every day at this time, she would prepare all the things that needed to be prepared in the morning, but waited for Xia Yan to come down for dinner and go to work.

She looks like a little wife, but she is more like a housekeeper.

"Morning." Xia Yan nodded lightly in greeting, then walked over and sat down.

"Morning, Xia Yanjun." Qianshou Lianhua's voice was still so cold and ethereal, but she didn't call Xia Yan 'Master' anymore.

"Auntie went shopping again?" Xia Yan couldn't help asking amusedly after taking a sip of the appetizing millet porridge.

"To be precise, she went out to hide from you." Qianshou Lianhua directly exposed the truth: "After all, Xia Yanjun's identity has changed. Even if Xia Yanjun's attitude has not changed, the people around him have to change."

Xia Yan smiled and nodded lightly, but he didn't make any answer to such a question.

He can indeed feel that the attitudes of many people who know his true identity have changed. They could joke a little before, but now they are all respectful.

It is extremely cold at the heights, Xia Yan can be regarded as getting a little bit of experience with this sentence.

But he didn't care that much, because there were still a small number of people who knew his identity, and it was enough for his classmates to at least treat him normally.

Even if his previous character design was fake, it did not bring him any less benefits.

"I won't be home for a while."

Xia Yan put down the bowl in his hand, and then said casually.

"You will take care of the house. I have notified Anbu that he will come and guard here. You can live normally."

"It seems that the task of dispatching all the ministers of Anbu will not be a simple matter."

Qianshou Lianhua slightly raised her head and glanced at Xia Yan, then she lowered her head.

"I see, I won't let there be problems at home."

Qianshou Lianhua is very smart, even if she doesn't know what Xia Yan's mission is, but she knows what she shouldn't ask and she doesn't ask.

As for Xia Yan, who is already the head of Anbu, but is still so careful, this is not a strange thing.

Xia Yan's minister was obtained entirely by strong means, which would inevitably involve the interests of many others.

Since there are interests involved, there will naturally be people who choose to take risks because the interests are too great.

This kind of person is very dangerous and terrifying. If you don't take precautions against them, it is unimaginable what they will cause.

When Xia Yan was around, they might be worried about Xia Yan's strength and the failure of the operation to succeed at all.

But if Xia Yan is not in Konoha, then if he acts fast enough and decisively, then maybe he can succeed in revenge.

Even though Xia Yan is still the Minister of Anbu, his whereabouts are one of the most closely guarded, but there is no impenetrable wall in the world.

"That's good. I hope this operation goes well, and at the same time, I can make more money for Anbu." Xia Yan finished all the breakfast on the table, and then stood up.

"Are you making money for Anbu? Xia Yanjun is going to see the daimyo?" Qianju Lianhua immediately understood what Xia Yan said: "Is Master Hokage going to see the daimyo?"

"Oh?" Xia Yan raised his eyebrows, and then said with a smile: "Isn't that right, I just said that I was going to get some money, but you actually guessed that I was going to meet the third generation of my name, amazing."

"Actually, it's not difficult to understand. I was thinking about what kind of mission it would be, and the Minister of Anbu would also be dispatched."

Qianshou Lianhua pulled back her temple hair before continuing to speak.

"It wasn't until Xia Yanjun reminded me that the only person who could dispatch Minister Anbu and get money at the same time seemed to be only a daimyo.

And to see the daimyo needs a reasonable reason, so it must be the third Hokage who is going to see the daimyo, and Xia Yanjun will go with him.

It's just that the Third Hokage and Xia Yanjun are not the same people, I'm afraid Xia Yanjun also paid some price, right?

However, such a price is probably nothing to Xia Yanjun, and it may even be thrown out by you on your own initiative. "

Xia Yan stood on the spot and looked at the Qianshou Lianhua whose eyes were shining slightly, Xia Yan couldn't help feeling once again in his heart, this woman is really smart!

He had already had such emotions a few months ago, but after he helped the woman solve her "worries about the future", the wisdom displayed by this woman became more and more obvious.

But this time, Xia Yan was really amazed. He had guessed so much for her with just one sentence, and it could even be said that it was almost the same.

It can only be said that this kind of thinking ability is really terrifying enough. If it were Xia Yan himself, he might have to think carefully for a long time before he could think of these things.

"Putting you at home, I really feel wronged." Xia Yan sighed slightly: "Have you ever thought about finding a place where you can give full play to your talents?"

"I will only listen to Master Xia Yan." Qianshou Lianhua lowered her head slightly, and this time her address was changed: "If Master Xia Yan thinks it is necessary, then it is necessary; if Master Xia Yan thinks it is not necessary, then There is no need."

"Is that so?" Xia Yan smiled and nodded: "I understand, let's talk about it when I come back."

After saying this, the Chakra on Xia Yan's body rippled slightly.

Qianshou Lianhua's words have been made very clear, so Xia Yan doesn't mind giving it a try.

After all, such an ability keeps her at home, if she is really used as a vase, it would be a pity
Hiruzaru Sarutobi had set off for a while, and he was walking silently on the path to the capital of the Land of Fire.

Since Qianshou Xia Yan had promised to only take him to the capital of the Land of Fire, he would not miss the appointment.

However, he also maintained a certain degree of vigilance along the way. After all, Xia Yan's strength is really terrifying.

Therefore, he left a shadow clone in the residence of the Sarutobi clan, and told an elder in the family about this operation.

If Xia Yan really did something unforgivable, then he can also use the disappearance of the shadow clone to send a message.

When the main body dies, the shadow clone will disappear, so that the elder can immediately reveal what Xia Yan did, without taking any countermeasures for the brat.

From the time he set off until now, Hiruzaru Sarutobi always felt that he was being watched by someone, and this feeling was inexplicable.

But he didn't find anyone, which made him wonder if it was Xia Yan who came over, but didn't show up?

Thinking of this, Hiruzaru Sarutobi didn't bother to care about those peeping eyes anymore, as long as he kept enough vigilance.

"Hopefully nothing bad happens."

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought silently, and then he began to speed up and continue walking forward.

There was no accident along the way, and Ruoyou Ruowu's eyes seemed to be just looking at him without any other plans, which made him more sure that this was probably Xia Yan, or someone from Xia Yan.

It's just that he was very curious, why this kid Xia Yan hasn't come out yet, could it be possible that he can still rely on Flying Thunder God to teleport him after he arrives at the capital of the Land of Fire?

"Walk carefully, Hokage-sama."

At this moment, a voice suddenly rang in Hiruzaru Sarutobi's ears, which made Hiruzaru Sarutobi's pupils involuntarily dilate slightly.

But soon, he forced himself to calm down his thoughts again, he turned his head slightly to look, and then a strange look appeared on his face.

"Xia Yan?" Hiruzaru Sarutobi asked strangely: "Why is your mask Kakashi's?"

Anbu cannot change his own mask, especially this mask will follow a person for a lifetime!

But the current Xia Yan almost publicly violated this rule, and he directly appeared in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen wearing Kakashi's mask.

The most terrible thing is that wearing a mask and wearing Anbu costumes, he really feels a little indistinguishable from Kakashi.

These two people were originally white-haired, and Xia Yan himself was also good at using swordsmanship. Except for the lack of the Sharingan and the iconic Thunder Dun, basically they couldn't tell the difference when they were wearing a mask.

"Nightingale's reputation is too great. In order to avoid trouble, I don't think it's better not to use the identity of Nightingale."

Xia Yan spread his hands and then explained something. He seemed a little helpless, but Sarutobi's eyebrows twitched when he heard it.

"The last time I was in Tang Country, Yun Yin's Anbu saw me and turned around and ran away, which made me almost unable to complete the task."

"It seems that Xia Yanjun has grown to such an extent that everyone in the world sighs in this short period of one year."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi replied angrily, but he himself seemed a little silent after saying this.

Because this sentence is really correct, Xia Yan has indeed grown to a level that amazes everyone in the world.

Who would have imagined that Xia Yan was just an excellent Anbu nearly a year ago, and he had already become the team leader at a young age.

But that's all. Although it is excellent, it doesn't make the world feel scared.

But now, not only has his strength reached a terrifying height, but his status has also taken an unprecedented leap, and he has directly become the head of Anbu!
At the age of 14, he became the minister, and he was also the minister of Anbu. This can only be said to be unprecedented in the ninja world.

Unless someone can become a shadow at this age, or become the head of Anbu at a younger age, I am afraid that he can surpass him.

But when he thought of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help shaking his head, because whether he became the head of Anbu at the age of 13 or became a shadow at the age of 14, it was not realistic.

Such a magical thing really happened, so only one or two conclusions can be used to evaluate this matter.

The first is that this village is dying. If such a young person is required to come to the fore, is there really any hope for such a village?
After all, for a person like Xia Yan who has such a strong heart, Hiruza Sarutobi feels that there should be no second one in the ninja world.

As for the second conclusion, it is naturally a compromise of interests. Letting this young man step forward is good for the village, so why not let him do it?
But in this case, that young man is indeed a bit pitiful, because I am afraid that he can only be a puppet honestly, without any autonomy at all.

"Forget it, let's not talk about these things, then White Fang, the rest is up to you."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi seemed to think of something, he immediately shook his head, and instead of continuing his previous thinking, he spoke directly.

"Of course, Hokage-sama." Xia Yan chuckled, bowed slightly and said softly, "So, shall we go?"

After saying this, Xia Yan walked straight forward, and Sarutobi Hiruzen set off behind Xia Yan.

It's just that after Xia Yan set off, he couldn't help but glance around, and a smile appeared on his face under the mask.

"It's really careful enough. Could it be that I killed him? Or..."

"Are you looking for a chance to kill me? If so, then it's really worth looking forward to."

"Just now. Was that the Flying Thunder God technique?"

Among the treetops some distance away from Xia Yan and Sarutobi Hiruzen, a root ninja stared into the distance, with a little cold sweat appearing on his forehead.

He still knows how terrifying the Flying Thunder God Technique is. After all, the current minister of Anbu used the Flying Thunder God Technique to kill many of them!

But what puzzled him was that the mask worn by the person who came just now was not the mask of the Minister Anbu.

Konoha Nightingale, this name is well-known in the entire ninja world, and his mask is remembered by everyone.

In Konoha, he has a special status. As a root member, it is impossible to mistake this mask anyway.

"That mask is White Fang's, which is Hatake Kakashi, but why does this guy know how to perform the Thunder God Technique?"

This root ninja is a little confused, but he doesn't want to think more about it.

He had followed Sarutobi Hiruzen for a while, but before that he had never seen Anbu's protectors, which made him have great doubts in his heart.

But now he has seen the people from Anbu, and he has confirmed the people from Anbu and the course of action of these two people.

Therefore, he also has to complete the report and start preparing for the next step of the mission.

Thinking of this, he quickly formed a mudra with one hand, and then his whole body changed into a puff of smoke and disappeared in place.

And in the farther place, this Anbu suddenly felt something, he immediately closed his eyes and felt it for a moment, and then he opened it quickly.

"It's been confirmed. There is only one person to protect, and it is White Fang." The root ninja said quickly: "There is no problem with the route. If there is no accident, they will arrive here in 10 minutes."

"Only one person?" Another root ninja asked suspiciously: "Are you sure you didn't make a mistake? I remember that Bai Fang is currently busy rebuilding the second brigade. Is it really him?"

"There is no problem with the mask, and there is no problem with the appearance, but there is one big problem." This root thought for a while, and then said seriously: "That is, this guy Bai Fang seems to have mastered the art of flying thunder."

"The Art of Flying Thunder God?" Hearing this sentence, all the ninjas who came to ambush Genbu showed puzzled expressions.

The Art of Flying Thunder God is definitely not a simple art, otherwise, throughout Konoha's history, there are only three people who have learned it—the Second Hokage, the Fourth Hokage, and the current Anbu Minister Nightingale.

Could it be that, as a disciple of the fourth generation of Hokage, and also a classmate and friend of Konoha Nightingale, Bai Ya has learned the art of flying thunder god under the guidance of these two?

Or is it not White Fang at all, but Nightingale, Minister of the Anbu Department?

If it was Nightingale, then this matter would be in serious trouble. The performance of this guy in Nine-Tails Night already explained everything.

And his attitude towards Root is also very bad, it can be said that he is definitely not someone that Root is willing to provoke!
"Okay, don't think too much about it."

At this moment, one of the shorter roots suddenly opened its mouth.

"Konoha Nightingale is now the head of Anbu, and she won't be dispatched easily without special circumstances.

What's more, even if he is dispatched, we must complete Danzo-sama's mission! "

"That's right, Nightingale is now the head of the Anbe, and it is said that he has a bad relationship with the third Hokage."

This is, a root ninja thought for a while before speaking.

"In fact, both Wumen and Anbu know this more or less, so it is more important for us to complete our own tasks."

The root ninja's words immediately quieted all the other ninjas. Indeed, the relationship between Anbu and Hokage is really not good now.

This matter is known even to ninjas like them who have almost no emotion at all and only know how to complete the task.

The reason why they reacted like this is mainly because the tasks they received were really unexpected, and the enemies they had to face were also somewhat beyond their imagination.

Qianshou Xiayan is really not an ordinary enemy, his strength is powerful and his methods are also frightening.

They all still remember the heads that were sent back one by one, and the unrepentant appearance really had a huge impact on them.

They are indeed like machines, their feelings and fears are completely suppressed, but the reason why they have become like this is largely because they believe in the so-called 'protecting leaves'.

But Xia Yan killed them so openly, and didn't forget to humiliate them like this, but this guy didn't receive any punishment.

In addition, what they are doing now has also shaken their hearts a little bit, otherwise they would never have such a 'discussion' situation.

But now they have come to their senses. Now that they have accepted such a task, they must complete it well.

They shouldn't have any doubts about Danzo-sama, they have to trust Danzo-sama's judgment, everything they do is for Konoha!
Thinking of this, they immediately dispersed and slowly adjusted their state. What they have to do now is the final preparation, which is also preparation for battle.

"Huh? People are missing?"

Xia Yan and Sarutobi Hiruzen walked forward all the way, their speed is not fast, maybe it is not urgent for them.

So it's not a big deal to slow down a little bit, even if you want to speed up, it's not impossible to speed up, so Xia Yan can think about it carefully, what to do next.

But what surprised Xia Yan was that those who protected Sarutobi Hiruzen disappeared?

This made Xia Yan feel a little strange. Could it be that Hiruza Sarutobi felt it was unnecessary, or did he believe that he would not do anything to him?
Xia Yan couldn't figure it out, he didn't use his perception to explore those guys all the time, so he didn't know what was going on with those guys.

However, Xia Yan felt that those guys were a little strange. There was nothing wrong with their chakra, but they didn't seem like a complete person in detail.

Shaking his head, Xia Yan didn't bother to think so much anymore, he would rather see what the third Hokage planned to do.

But what Xia Yan didn't know was that Hiruzaru Sarutobi's thoughts were similar to his now!
"The feeling of being watched disappeared, and it seems that they are really Anbu people."

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought about it silently, but he didn't have any thoughts to make it public. In his opinion, that feeling disappeared after Xia Yan came out.

Then this probably shows that he was indeed targeted by people, and those people were from Anbu!

It's just that now it seems that those Anbu people are here to provide the coordinates of Flying Thunder God, not to trouble him, so such a discovery seems a bit interesting.

"It seems that I really misunderstood this kid, but thinking about it carefully, it seems normal that he doesn't intend to do anything to me."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi thought silently, after all, I am afraid that this kid guessed that he would take precautions, so he didn't plan to do anything, right?
No matter which one it was, Hiruzaru Sarutobi breathed a sigh of relief, he was still quite worried after all, after all they said they were facing Natsuhiko Senju.

"Lord Hokage."

Just when the two of them were absolutely convinced that each other had problems, but finally gave up their bad plans, Xia Yan took the initiative to speak.

"Should we speed up, after all, both of us have a lot of things to do."

"It's a very good choice." Hiruzaru Sarutobi smiled and nodded when he came back to his senses: "Then, let's speed up, but Captain Xia Yan still needs to give way to me, after all, I am old."

Having said that, the two chakra moved slightly at the same time, and the next moment they accelerated and rushed forward at the same time.

Xia Yan didn't explode at full speed, because he knew that Sarutobi Hiruzen's speed couldn't keep up with him at all.

The old man was right about one thing, that is, he was indeed old.

Although Xia Yan is still young and his body has not fully reached its peak, but he eats a lot of basic fruits, coupled with deliberate exercise, his speed is also very scary.

Just running, Xia Yan suddenly felt something was wrong, because he felt the fluctuation of Chakra.

Similarly, Hiruzaru Sarutobi also sensed a strange chakra aura brewing. After all, it was Kage and had participated in so many battles, he would have died long ago if he was not sensitive!

And this kind of discovery couldn't help but make them both look at each other, but as if they had confirmed their eyes, they suddenly thought of being together in Fuling's heart.

"This damn guy, actually wants to do something?"

There was no time to think about it, the next moment several earth dragons rose from the ground, roaring and slammed into Xia Yan and Sarutobi Hiruzen fiercely!

However, this kind of ninjutsu is really not practical for the two of them. After all, neither of them is an ordinary ninja.

Both Xia Yan and Sarutobi Hiruzen just paused for a moment, and then the blinking technique was activated in an instant, and the two of them avoided these terrifying earth dragons so lightly.

It's just that when they landed on the ground, the gazes they stared at each other seemed extraordinarily weird.

Although it is not a look full of betrayal, injury, and unbelievable anger, it is enough to feel surprised.

"I really didn't expect that the Minister would be so murderous towards me."

"I never expected that Hokage-sama would be so cruel."

The two of them spoke almost at the same time, but they were both stunned for a moment after they finished speaking, and then they asked in unison with a tacit understanding.

"Not the person you arranged?"

After asking this sentence, the two fell silent again.

And with such silence, they also quickly dodged the attack of another Tudun, and they also noticed who was attacking them.

These guys are all wearing Anbu's costumes, but the cold and numb breath has already explained their identities.

"The people at the root?" Xia Yan glanced at him, and then he looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi: "Master Hokage, don't you plan to explain?"

"If you ask me to explain, who can give me an explanation?"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi's face was extremely ugly, he never dreamed that the person who attacked them would be the root!
Is this damn guy Danzo crazy?
Why would he do such a stupid, irrational thing?
Did he want to do something to Xia Yan, or did he want to do something to himself?
Such thoughts kept spinning in Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind, but the people at the root had no intention of stopping at all.

They rushed up again, and their main target was Sarutobi Hiruzen!

Seeing this scene, Hiruzaru Sarutobi's face turned livid, but a smile appeared on Xia Yan's face hidden under the mask.

Obviously, these guys at the root were beheaded by Hiru Sarutobi, and Xia Yan even recalled the scene in the original book.

In the original book, Danzo chose to assassinate Hiruzen Sarutobi because he was dissatisfied with Hiruzen Sarutobi's regaining the power of Hokage.

It's just that the behavior of this guy in the original book was sold by Kakashi, so he directly declared failure.

Xia Yan really didn't expect that this guy Danzo dared to do such a thing when he disrupted the situation and forced him to this point?

"Or, I pushed him too hard, which made him have to find a chance to resist?"

Xia Yan couldn't figure out why, and he didn't bother to guess about this kind of thing. His eyes were now locked on a little brat with long brown hair.

He knew that the kid who had no accidents was probably Yamato, and his current identity in Genbu was Jia.

Because he has already sensed a chakra power similar to his own in this kid, and this power is the power of Mu Dun!

This kid is Danzo's trump card against Hiruzaru Sarutobi, but the identity of this kid can never be exposed.

"I didn't expect it to be delivered to me. Danzo, you really deserve to be a good person. I'm afraid Hiruzaru Sarutobi's face will be even more exciting when he finds out?"

Thinking of this, Xia Yan rushed in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen with a teleportation technique. He didn't pull out the ninja sword, but simply flicked his hand forward.

The two figures intertwined, and the root ninja in front suddenly flew out, and his body had been pierced by wooden thorns!
The bright red blood rained down and splashed on Xia Yan's white mask, which looked extraordinarily strange at this moment.

"You" Hiruzaru Sarutobi was ready to make a move, he didn't react when he saw Xia Yan who made a sudden move.

"Although I think going to the theater seems to be a good choice, but..."

Xia Yan gently shook the blood in his hand, his voice sounded so gentle.

"I found something interesting, very interesting, and I think Hokage-sama will find it interesting too"
