Konoha starts from the root

a few days later.

Iwagakure Village, Tsuchikage Building, lobby on the first floor.

"Kaneshi Jonin, this is your mission this time."

A ninja sitting behind the desk handed over a task authorization letter.

After Jinshi took it, he read it carefully, but frowned.

It's not that the task is difficult, it's that it's too easy.

According to the mission authorization letter, the mission content is to protect a wealthy businessman for seven days. During the mission, you may encounter some wandering ninjas who are at the genin and chunin level.

Generally speaking, this kind of mission will be classified as B level, and only a chuunin team will be dispatched. After all, the ninjas trained in the village are not something that those wandering ninjas can compete with.

No matter how you look at it, it shouldn't be classified as A-level and let him, a jounin, perform it.

For the sake of his own life, Jin Shi did not dare to be careless, so he asked: "Is there anything wrong with this mission? Why is it set as A level?"

The ninja behind the desk glanced at the distance and whispered: "There's no problem. We've already done preliminary verification. It's just the employer's requirement to be classified as Class A."

When Jin Shi heard this, he followed his gaze and saw a richly dressed, slightly fat middle-aged man sitting on the sofa there.

Behind him, there were two lean warriors standing.

Obviously, he is the employer.

In an instant, Jin Shi understood what he was thinking. From the look of the other party, it was obvious that he was not short of money, so he abruptly upgraded the B-level task to A-level.

Compared to money, he cares more about his own life.

And of course Iwagakure would not refuse such a good thing.

Jin Shi turned around and said, "In that case, I will take over this task."

After completing the formalities, Jin Shi walked towards the employer.

Afterwards, the two talked for a while, and after getting to know each other, they left the Tsuchikage Building together.

······

Three days later, in the Kingdom of Earth, there was a bustling small city.

Fox stood quietly in a hidden corner outside a manor, watching everything that happened in the manor.

At this time, veins popped out on both sides of his eyes, obviously his Byakugan had been turned on.

Not only that, but the faint silver soul-locking curse mark also appeared at the center of his eyebrows.

A moment later, two figures suddenly jumped from the courtyard onto the wall. They looked particularly embarrassed.

The tension and fear had been clearly displayed in the fox's eyes through the chakra fluctuations.

Just as they were about to jump off the wall, two kunai flew towards them and plunged directly into their backs.

Immediately, the two fell from the wall.

Immediately afterwards, a figure suddenly appeared on the wall.

Judging from his appearance, he is none other than the Jonin of Iwagakure Village—Kaneshi.

At this time, he did not look at the two corpses, but frowned at a remote corner not far away.

That's exactly where the fox was standing just now.

However, his figure disappeared at some point.

"Illusion?" Jin Shi murmured.

Since the day before, he had vaguely felt as if someone was peering at him from behind, but this feeling came and went, leaving him confused.

To this end, he tried many times, but found nothing.

Until today, when those wandering ninjas came, this feeling of being watched was particularly obvious.

Just now he followed the feeling and chased it out, but still didn't find anything.

This made him wonder if he was thinking too much.

After thinking for a moment, Jin Shi shook his head and said to himself: "It's impossible, there must be something wrong. It seems that this mission is not easy."

After saying that, he immediately returned to the manor, preparing to ask the employer in detail.

······

At the same time, on Ghost Island, inside the experimental base.

Bai Ye, who was sitting on the chair, slowly opened his eyes and said with a chuckle: "This is my first test, and it feels pretty good."

Just now, the spiritual will that resided in the fox returned to him.

Immediately, a memory came to mind.

This feeling is basically the same as after removing the shadow clone.

It's not a coincidence that the fox appears next to Jin Shi, it's all inevitable.

Even if there is no gold stone, there will be other Jonin from Iwagakure Village.

At the beginning of the plan, Kitsune chose the target, that is, the employer, and then secretly guided some wandering ninjas as pawns.

In the end, as expected, in order to save his life, this person went directly to Iwagakure Village to issue an A-level mission, which attracted Kaneshi, the Iwagakure Village Jonin.

What Bai Ye has to do is to record the chakra properties of the gold stone through the spiritual will of the fox.

In this way, after the other party returns to Yanyin Village, you can invade the other party's spiritual world through the technique of spiritualization, then control the other party's body, and complete the preliminary reconnaissance of the secret room.

The reason why it takes so much effort is that firstly, the whereabouts of the jounin in each village are secret, and ordinary people will definitely have no way of knowing it. They can only use this method to attract one. Secondly, this plan must be successful at the first time, otherwise there will be another one. There will be no second chances either.

Therefore, we must be cautious and cautious.

Baiye knew the general location of the secret room. After all, he had obtained a lot of confidential information about Yanyin Village in Loess's memory.

But two years have passed, who knows what will change there?

What's more, he invaded the secret place of Iwagakure Village a few months ago.

Such a long time has passed, and with Onoki's cunningness, he has probably determined the source of the information leak, so why not arrange another secret place in the village?

Therefore, he would rather spend more time and be fully prepared.

······

Soon, Jin Shi's mission was over, and he didn't relax a little until he returned to the village.

Although he did not feel that vague gaze again in the next few days, because of this, he was more careful, because this meant that his feeling in the previous two days was right, but for some reason, the other party left. .

Of course, he has not been idle these days.

Secretly, he checked the employer of this mission again, but still found no problem.

As for those wandering ninjas, they had all died in his hands, but there was no trace of them.

Helpless, he could only write a detailed report on the mission process and hand it over.

What happens next depends on how the village arranges it.

Late at night, Bai Ye locked the door, used the Flying Thunder God technique to leave the experimental base, and entered a secret place.

It was pitch black until he turned on his flashlight.

It can be seen that this is a small secret room. The strange thing is that it has no doors or windows. It is surrounded by solid rocks, like a natural cage.

This is the hiding place Bai Ye prepared for himself to use his spiritual technique, a secret room that no one knows about.

After swallowing two soldiers' food pills, and after his chakra was fully recovered, Baiye sat cross-legged on the ground, formed a seal with his hands, and performed the S-level soul ninjutsu, the spiritual transformation technique.
