Fortunately, Sasuke was relatively flexible in the air. He tried his best to avoid the more powerful ninjutsu and focused on running away.

In addition, Sakai doesn't have a lot of chakra, so he couldn't draw more than twenty big birds and chase Sasuke for an hour.

However, the ground pursuit troops still followed closely, and they were not far behind.

As long as Sasuke stopped, they would catch up quickly.

Because he had been avoiding ninjutsu before, he had consumed a lot of wind-enhanced stone chakra, and now he couldn't fly for half an hour.

So Sasuke began to take these ground pursuit troops and run into the mountains to let them run more distance and thereby create more distance.After all, in times of crisis like this, even the smallest details can save lives.

Sasuke is still alive and trying to escape.

Tsunade continued: "An unknown person just assassinated the Third Hokage. The whereabouts of the Third Hokage are now unknown, which is very dangerous. After all, there are many traces of fierce battles left at the scene."

Hinata pretended not to know and asked: "Who is actually so bold? This is too arrogant. But by the way, isn't the Third Hokage unable to move? How can he still fight?"

Hinata thought in her heart: What did this Sasuke do? She had seen the state of the Third Hokage before. He was basically a man with no fighting ability, but he actually fought fiercely.

Master Tsunade said: "This is also one of the strange things for me. Another strange thing is that the opponent has both thunder and fire attributes, which is completely different from Orochimaru."

After hearing this, Hinata excused Sasuke: "Don't Orochimaru often change bodies? Maybe he changed his body this time?"

Tsunade said clearly: "No, Jiraiya told me before that Orochimaru will not be able to change his body until this time next year. Jiraiya's ability to collect intelligence is the strongest in Konoha, so I believe him. In other words, the person who came today is not Orochimaru at all."

Hinata felt a little guilty after hearing Master Tsunade's analysis. Orochimaru couldn't carry this pot.

Tsunade continued: "To be honest, I have never seen a shadow-level strongman with dual attributes of thunder and fire in the ninja world. Of course, except for you Hinata, and you happen to be not in the village, I guess Danzo will look for you. trouble."

Hinata was speechless at this time, thinking, I won't be the one to take the blame, right? Is there a day when I, Hinata, will become a scapegoat? Danzo, that guy, had better not come to me asking for trouble, otherwise Let him know what regret means

Hinata said innocently: "But aren't you still chasing that guy? And I am here now, so it should have nothing to do with me."

Master Tsunade continued: "I think so too, but you know Danzo too, just a mortal, but I will help you with this matter."

Hinata took this opportunity to throw herself into Tsunade's broad chest and said, "Thank you, Master."

Tsunade said with disgust: "You are taller than me and you still like to act coquettishly. This is not my style. I have to change it in the future."

Hinata thought to herself that it's not a rule that beauties don't act coquettishly.

Seeing that Hinata didn't respond to it, Tsunade knew that Hinata didn't intend to change. She shook her head helplessly and said, "Why don't you join in the pursuit? You're bored anyway."

After Tsunade finished speaking, there was a hurried report from the ANBU: "Report to the Hokage-sama, the person we were following was rescued by a mysterious man. The man was wearing a black red cloud robe and looked very much like the figure from the Akatsuki organization you mentioned before."

When Tsunade heard that the person ran away, she smashed the table with an angry palm.

The people who made the report were a little panicked and stood there dumbly while being scolded.

Reporting can sometimes be a chore, especially when the war in ancient times comes back with bad news, and you may have to be dragged out and executed.It's a part-time job as a punching bag.

Although he was shouting desperately in his heart, this is none of my business, they let me go.

Master Tsunade was still cursing: "With hundreds of you, you can't catch up, right? It's said that raising an army takes a thousand days and using it only for a while. But now you're out of control. What's the use of you? Tell me what happened."

Under attack from both sides by the flying troops and the ground troops, the man estimated that he had very little chakra left and started running and jumping on the ground. After a big battle, when we thought he would not be able to hold on for long, we would catch him. People from the Akatsuki organization suddenly appeared. They suspected that they had used space-time ninjutsu and took the people away directly. Our people also returned without success.

After hearing what happened, Tsunade scolded: "It seems that the people from the Akatsuki organization did something right. They can actually use time and space ninjutsu. Those people are really scary and difficult opponents."

"How about it, have the ANBU who originally protected the Third Hokage investigated?"

The reporter said: "It has been investigated. Although their memories have been altered, they still cannot be hidden from the eyes of Haiyi. What they actually saw has been presented. The person who came to assassinate has the Sharingan, The suspect is Uchiha Itachi"

Tsunade said to herself: "If it is Uchiha Itachi, everything makes sense. He is able to enter Konoha without anyone noticing, and he has Kage-level strength. It turns out that he is eyeing Konoha." There are so many people, first Orochimaru came to assassinate the Third Hokage, and then Uchiha Itachi. What did the old man do to be so hated?"

Because Sasuke wore a battle suit and he had grown taller in the past two years, his body shape was almost right.

So Haiichi came to the conclusion that the person who invaded Konoha this time was Itachi Uchiha.

Danzo was also a little panicked when he received the news. If the person who came was really Uchiha Itachi, then he was also a bit dangerous.

He knew the reason why the third generation was assassinated.

So he went to Tsunade overnight to modify the patrol methods of Konoha Anbu and the layout of the barriers.Although the third generation was assassinated when he was about to die, who knows if such a crazy person will come again. He still has things he wants to do, but he doesn't want to die like this.

So Danzo directly found six masters for personal protection, and then he said very imposingly: "If Uchiha Itachi dares to come, I will let him go and never come back."

The other two high-level officials also went to Tsunade to ask for protection. The reason was that the protection of Konoha was not done properly and they were worried.

Master Tsunade had been so frustrated these past two days that even the daimyo came to join in and scolded Tsunade.

Although Tsunade ordered the news to be blocked, and it was reported that the Third Hokage died of natural causes, how could such a big movement be blocked, so all countries were laughing at Tsunade and the Land of Fire.

Tsunade had no choice but to release some of Akatsuki's information, and directly put the blame on Itachi.

The Akatsuki organization originally wanted to keep a low profile, but after the news broke out, the Akatsuki organization could no longer keep a low profile and was overwhelmed with all kinds of assassination business.

Payne held an organizational meeting and said: "Itachi, what are you doing? Our plan will take another year to be implemented. You have made such a big noise. The five major countries have already paid attention to us. You assassinated Hokage and actually escaped successfully. , I still have to praise you a few words."

Itachi said speechlessly: "I didn't do this. Just let others take the blame. Don't try to pin this on me. My brother Uchiha Sasuke did this. "

Sasuke and Itachi had an exchange before, and Sasuke said that if he was exposed, he would join the Akatsuki organization together, and then become spies together with Itachi.

But now that he had Kisame by his side, even if he wanted to help Sasuke take the blame, he couldn't, so he said it directly.

At this time, Hidan also came out to talk. He knew that Sasuke was the guy who made him feel embarrassed before.

So he mocked: "You Uchiha clan are really rebellious. Your elder brother killed the whole clan, and your younger brother went to assassinate the Hokage. I really don't understand you, but I still like your character. It suits the evil god-sama's taste."

Kisame also stood up and said: "Yes, we were still there when the Third Hokage was killed. The Country of Strangeness is far away from the Country of Fire. According to the information found in Konoha, it should be Uchiha Sasuke. "

Payne then said: "Then your brother is also a good talent. How about pulling him over and putting you brothers into two teams?"

Itachi decisively refused, because Sasuke had not yet been exposed in Konoha, so there was no need for him to join the Akatsuki organization.

"He and I are not at all on good terms. If you want to win over someone, find someone else to persuade him."

Xie said at this time: "I have information about Uchiha Sasuke. He has been staying with our traitor Orochimaru for the past two years."

Payne said: "The traitor Orochimaru seems to be very active recently. He used to keep a low profile and conduct some messy experiments behind his back. Now I heard that he has also engaged in diplomacy, and he is still working with Uchiha. Sasuke's done it. This traitor can't be left alone."

"Rest, I'll leave it to your team to solve Orochimaru's matter. By the way, I'll persuade Uchiha Sasuke. If you don't agree, let's solve it together. What about Itachi? You should be okay with it."

Itachi said expressionlessly: "No problem."

Xie also happily accepted the task.

Deidara also said excitedly: "I'm actually fighting against the Uchiha clan. I finally waited until today. It's really great. I don't know how long that Sasuke can last under my art. Brother Xie, I’ll leave Orochimaru to you, Uchiha Sasuke is mine.”

Xie said speechlessly: "What are you thinking about? Sasuke can't do anything until Sasuke disagrees. Don't mess with me."

They were still in the meeting, and Deidara didn't dare to be too presumptuous in front of the leader, so he had to agree superficially.Anyway, I will be treated differently later.

Payne continued: "The number of tasks has increased recently, but it is better not to accept the list of assassinating important figures from the five major countries. We should let them think that we are still afraid of them, but they can accept other tasks they have arranged, and use this to make them think that we are still afraid of them." It’s an opportunity to enter the five major countries to collect information about the tailed beasts. Okay, let’s end this meeting like this.”

Responses from villages

Gaara had already become the Kazekage at this time, and he personally wrote a letter to express his condolences to the allies when faced with Konoha's incident.

The Raikage of the Kingdom of Thunder is an old rival of Konoha. He is a restless person who likes to cause trouble. However, the Raikage still has some friendship with Tsunade, and he has not done anything to disgust Tsunade in a national celebration.

He discussed this matter with his secretary in private, laughed at the incompetence of the Fire Country, and said that this kind of thing would never happen in the Thunder Country.

Tsuchikage is also an old stubborn, and he felt happy for several days when he heard about Konoha's birth.

However, the culprit of this incident was the Uchiha clan, which reminded him of the shadow that Uchiha Madara had brought to him, and he couldn't help but cursed: "Konoha is such a fool, thinking of accepting a dangerous clan like the Uchiha clan. , engage in such betrayal every day. It is simply unreasonable for them not to be exterminated."

As for the Kingdom of Water, which is still in chaos and has no time to care about other things, the Clay Bodhisattva cannot save himself when crossing the river.

Sasuke didn't know that he went to Hinata in the middle of the night that day, and Hinata gave him a Flying Thunder God mark.

As for Akatsuki's clothes, she had prepared them a long time ago, thinking that one day she would impersonate the Akatsuki organization and do something special.

So Hinata was like a divine weapon descending from the sky, and took Sasuke away in an instant. The pursuers saw Hinata's clothes, and many people even didn't even notice Hinata's figure.

Sasuke, who was rescued by Hinata, asked with a confused face: "You are a time and space ninjutsu, and you have learned this ninjutsu. You still think you are not a human being. I originally thought that our strength would be somewhat involved." The distance is gone.”

Hinata said proudly: "Of course, you are still far away. Let's go to Orochimaru's place. I also want a battle suit."

Huh, as long as the Immortal of Six Paths doesn't help you cheat, you can't catch up with me.

Sasuke said speechlessly: "You are not in the village. Aren't you afraid of being suspected when you are running around? I don't care. Don't you still have family in Konoha? It will be very miserable if you have a home and can't go back."

Hinata smiled proudly: "I didn't expect you to worry about me. Don't worry, I'm in Konoha now, and they can't see it. By the way, how do you feel about taking revenge?"

Sasuke said coldly: "I don't have any feelings. I just feel that the path I have chosen is the right one. I have three more targets for revenge."

Since Hinata said it was fine, he didn't bother to ask. Hinata must have learned some weird ninjutsu. Asking might make him appear ignorant, so he didn't ask.

In this way, Hinata followed Sasuke back to Orochimaru's secret base.

Orochimaru is still as cautious as before, changing bases from time to time, and there is no specific pattern, he can go wherever he wants.He was as cunning as a loach. If Orochimaru and Sasuke hadn't told him where he was going, he really couldn't find Orochimaru and had to wait for him to contact him.

By the way, the one who went out with Sasuke was the main body, and the one who stayed in Konoha was the split body.

In addition to looking forward to her battle uniform, Hinata also wanted to know how well Orochimaru was preparing for their revolution. He, the hands-off leader, had to go visit and express condolences to his hard-working subordinates.

In the past two years, Hinata has not taken care of Orochimaru, and Orochimaru has shown no signs of contacting her. If she doesn't go and see her, she may go solo again, and Hinata will have one less tool.
